Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

tommy,
I wish there would be some discussion or question about ethnic profiling because I really do think that could have been an issue.

I'm going to make a guess as to what color Amin is and whether that had anything to do with the ejection.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
NBC has called it for Walker too.

Does Lumosity cost?
It does. I went with the $60 for two years deal, I forget what the other options might have been. I think there was a free trial period or something like that. You see how much my memory has been helped?
That poor guy. Ugh. WTF, B&N?

My understanding of research into brain-training games is that they mostly make you better at playing brain-training games.

That's what I've read, too. You get better at the games, but it doesn't have much effect on anything else.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I'm cranky because a butcher at my local grocery store was clearly put out by getting a request from me, and (1) declined to make a fresh cut of steak for me, (2) declined to halve a pre-existing family pack of said cut for me, and (3) told me not to check back in a few days because they would only be putting out the large family packs then too.
You win, Mr. butcher. I won't be bothering you any more. And I've just written a letter to your regional headquarters detailing exactly why I'll be bothering your store's newly-opened competitors instead from now on. So rest easy in the knowledge that your higher-ups will know what a good job you're doing saving your store the bother of selling me stuff.
