Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

I'm not sure if I should be offended or laugh.

Re: Computer overheating:

(Note: not a tech expert. All experience earned through trial and error.) Sounds like a good idea. The usual advice about making sure your drivers are updated and that the hardware's plugged in correctly (RAM, CPU, internal battery) and working (e.g. cooling fans) still applies.

The plan was to for Mom to handle the roleplaying and me to handle the combat, a la Mom Effect, but she wanted to do everything. We're not yet off Eden Prime, and I am begging her to let me take care of things like combat...door hacking...basic movement...

Dear former roommate:

I know you're angry at my other roommate over... Something. I don't really know or care what.

But there are much more intelligent and mature ways you could have expressed your anger than leaving voicemails threatening to murder everyone in our house.

Thanks in advance for not doing that again.

My 16th.
It was my sixteenth birthday just a few months ago.
The average age around here seems to drop.

They grade you on that? Over here in Mexico the exam is just "Lets go for a ride around the block." And that's it, you have your license.
Well, at least here you need to do a written test with 30 questions, each one varying from 1-5 mistake points and you're out, if you accumulate more than 10 of them (you then have to wait around a week before trying again, if you fail five times you have to start driver's ed. lessons again).

If you pass that and have done at least 10 hours driver's ed. (with one night time and one highway driving), you can do the practical test. There they'll ask a few questions about the technical (safety) aspects of the car, look how good you do driving in general and often have a few "obstacles" which they test you at (parking in reverse etc., although they are allowed to test anything you learned like emergency braking, but that is as good as never done).

Programming and surgery have a lot of things in common: Don't start removing colons until you know what you're doing.

Same sorta thing here in Michigan. I managed to pass on my first try (kinda)

, despite fucking up the "parallel park, park in reverse, don't hit the road cones" part.

I'll never forget the words of the man testing me when we started to go out onto the road:

"Well, for your sake, I certainly hope you drive better than you park."
