Monkeys paw: I wish for one trillion dollars; the world's economy crashes

Djinn: I wish for one trillion dollars; you are crushed to death beneath the weight of one trillion dollars.

Overwhelming children is not a good idea.

I wouldnt teach sin to a group of children I'm trying to teach basic addition to. Heck, it's not even a good idea to tell them about negative numbers at that point.

Telling children there are 3 states of matter is much easier than telling them about Frank Hobarts 2-stage triple balance beam phase plasma and how it only exists when the sun and the moon align during an eclipse while you sing Ave Maria

Learning how to teach without overwhelming people is extremely important.

You missed the part where the cops do all that and then shoot to kill in the states.

One of the best days of my life is when I saw the wiener mobile just driving along.

No, for reals, my life is pretty good outside of this day too.

I was walking to work one day and the wiener mobile just randomly turns the corner and I'm standing their looking at it, kind of shocked, because as a kid the wiener mobile was like this mythical thing, a giant drivable hot dog was just far too absurd for me to believe it was a real thing and I went on believing that into adulthood. It had to be some advertisement that was built for a few shots and torn down afterward, you know?

But here I was standing on the corner looking at santa or the fucking easter bunny in real fucking life in my mid twenties. For some reason I just raised my hand and pointed at the giant hot dog cruising around and the driver honked and waved at me.

The stop light turned red and the guy rolled down his windows and tossed a whistle to me and he just kept driving along. I must've stood at the corner for another 2-3 minutes watching it until he disappeared around on another street.

Still have the whistle almost 15 years later, it's one of my most prized possessions - haven't seen the wienermobile ever again.
