As a resident of Nebraska I really hope enough people make this mistake or assume it's Tom's son and vote for him out of husker pride that he gets elected. But realistically Debby is gunna win again

This.

My parents were very open and honest about their drug use and the use of their friends and family. I set rules for myself and never got truly in trouble, I've definitely made dumb mistakes, but I'm definitely better off then some of my friends.

The only thing that my dad said that was really dumb was "it's your choice, you can have chicks and cars or dudes and drugs". At the time, I had almost no friends, never really had friends up until then. Growing up with severe socal and separation anxiety will do that. I didn't really care about cars, chicks did drugs, so why not have some dudes too.

Edit: spelling

That definitely makes sense

Yea,I know very little about phycology and nothing about sociology, so this was very enlightening.

You make a good point

Good point, I didn't think about that

I've been wondering this for a while, wouldn't you want your candidate to poll poorly so more people who otherwise wouldn't vote and also prefer your candidate go out and vote? Wouldn't higher polling numbers cause people to rest assured their candidate will win and then not worry about voting? Obviously polls mean nothing, go out and vote

Mustache wax is essential but practice makes perfect. You can get mustache curlers off Amazon that I have used and provide some serious curls. You still need wax, and you look dumb as hell with them on but the result speak for themselves.

That being said every mustache is different and if yours is like mine, each half will NEVER match. NEVER. NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME YOU SPEND. Luckily, no one but you will notice or care.

Have you tried 'rubber ducky programming'? I'm not a programmer but the trick has helped me with other things when I hit a wall like your talking about. Basically you have a rubber duck with you and when you have a bug or issue, you back up and explain each peice and what it's supposed to do to the duck. The duck doesn't know programming so you have to explain it like it's, well, a duck. This helps slow down your thoughts and focus more on what each line does individually. As an electrican it helps me trouble shoot problems without opening up everything.

Hopefully this helps but I know each of us are different and what helps me may not help you. I know how hard it is to set a problem down when your in the thick of it. As a perfectionist I have to tell myself, it's good enough, constantly or I'll spend 3 days on something that should take 1.

Ford Prefect - an alien from betelguse who chose then name Ford Prefect as it was "nicely inconsicuos". Douglas Adams later explained in an interview that Ford thought the dominant species on earth were cars. In the shitty film adaptation he is almost run over by a car while trying to greet it.

I truly appreciate your opinion, I only have 488 hours but I've been playing since alpha 14 or 15. I have been super happy with the overall advancement of the game and game play. Honestly, I haven't seen a reason why 1.0 is unstable, it is the smoothest, most thought out version I've played so far. I feel like The Fun Pimps have been listening to the community and have done such a good job properly addressing real issues.

That being said the issues you seem to be having definitely would annoy the shit out of me, who knows maybe they are I'm just not realizing it (I get overly confident and die alot)

I am and will always be in the 'wait till it's done' crowd of games. While most games seem 60% done at launch, 7days seems closer to 90% and I'm really enjoying it.

I do hope they fix the problems you're dealing with, and fulfill the promises they've made in a timely manner.

Thank you for your consideration, have a wonderful day

This

It's all about the handful of swing states, 2/3rds of the electoral votes are basically locked it. She might get a few from out of left field but that has yet to be seen

Take Nebraska, I can tell you right now we will give Kamala 1 electoral vote and the remaining 4 to Tump.
