  • I’d make a database with one table holding the encounter names, and then another with attributes where each is associated with the IDs of the appropriate encounters. Then select a name, and the associated attributes, print out the name, and then assume you want the output in html, a <ul>, loop over the attributes and print each one starting with <li>, then end with </ul>.






  • I try, but it doesn’t always work. This also happens with other jokes I have that I am completely dead pan about. My belief is that what I’m saying is so ridiculous that it should be obvious I’m not serious, but some people are… um… for instance, I have a fake conspiracy theory that plane flight doesn’t exist, and airlines just knock us out, hook us up to electrodes, and wheel planes into a hangar where we get teleported. Planes seen in the sky are government holograms. I’ve had (stupid and annoying) people argue with me that I was in fact seriously stating my beliefs and then just trying to weasel out of it when I explained I was obviously joking.

    Edit to add, one basis for that plane conspiracy is that lift is fake since scientists don’t know why it works. “That air moves faster over the bottom than the top so it makes this 80 ton tin can float in the air”? Yeah, right.



  • Let’s see,

    • license already suspended
    • accelerated to speed through a red light at 78 mph
    • attempted to flee the scene
    • driving after using some unknown mixture of hard drugs
    • killed two people

    I don’t know what people deserve, but that would garner prison time in most places. Of course, prison isn’t effective at rehabilitating people, only deterring crime to some extent and punishing people.

    I’d say a sentence of at least a couple years, a requirement of drug treatment, 5-10 year license suspension, and probation with a longer suspended sentence if she’s caught driving.
