Sneak into the graveyard over time, and leave it mysteriously at Big Lee's grave, like the Poe people.

From what I've read about professional diving, 20k bonus seems really low.

Next thread: using "tough" as a descriptor of something good.
Everything old is new again.

'tough' was common in that meaning when I was in high school in the late '60s

I have to mention this because I've done it.

Do you have a physical wifi switch on the laptop?

I've accidentally turned mine off and been mightily confused.
Why the hell is that woman wading into a melee with a holstered sidearm?

I had a friend that would go scuba diving in caves. He told me a few close call stories that made me think a person would have to be insane to pursue that as a hobby.



Hard core cavers think cave divers are completely nuts.

Judging by this completely average forum, consisting of absolutely typical Americans, she's going to have a hard time demonstrating her reputation was anything but enhanced by this story.

It's interesting they are tying an overnight shooting to a bike event that happened at 2pm.

I seriously doubt the crowds for either event overlapped.


It's the end of semester drunk student blowout event. I've never seen IU's version, but judging from Purdue's equivalent (a go-kart race) in the past, there could well have been spring-break level crowds of people who had been drinking since Saturday morning still out and about and being raucous, but especially being drunk.

FWIW, the atmosphere has toned down almost completely at Purdue, and maybe the same at IU - I don't know what happened there; just saying that overlap is a real possibility.

Pretzel stealer is a very hard GTFO.

Other interactions were OK. ngl, "It's a Maserati, genius. Are you even a man?" was top tier and I might stick around to let her mock me some more. Until she stole my pretzel.
