Capital punishment is issued to those who commit atrocities like murder, genocide, treason, and terrorism, not for weed related crimes. I'm thinking people like Albert Fish, Timothy McVeigh, Ted Bundy.
The FBI or CIA wanted me dead, so they hired Deadpool to take care of me. He thought he'd be too recognizable in his red suit, so he put on a disguise over his suit: a Deadpool t-shirt. Then he chased me through a massive warehouse doing some sick parkour stunts.
My parents would preach something fierce about the dangers of even interacting with strangers online (even just having a generic "how are you" back and forth). In my 20s, I started playing Tibia and really enjoyed the fact that I could interact with people from around the world. I learned plenty of things that I simply didn't learn in school. When my folks learned I was talking to people I didn't know, they were appalled. I hate to think how they would have reacted to the knowledge that I shared my first name with some of those people (it's a veeeeery common name where I'm from).
Then my mom got a Twitter account. Then joined group DMs with like-minded people. Then she started giving out her first name, then her cell number. Then she shared our address. I'm still salty. Luckily nothing bad has ever come of it. The group seems like they're wonderful people and my mom is able to turn to them when she's not feeling the best and vice versa.
I took an introduction to nursing class in high school where we had to know the names of all the bones, the chambers of the heart, CPR, etc. During one particular topic, one of the students kinda snapped and exclaimed "I'm too stupid for this!" The teacher, a badass ER nurse who was a single mom, rode a Harley, and had seen everything from electrocuted flesh to years-old bed sores, simply said "Good. That means you're learning."
I work with special needs kids, and whenever they complain about feeling stupid, I pass along that wisdom, but in a bit nicer way: "You're not stupid, you're just learning."
I forget to eat all the time due to hyper focusing. I'll hyperfocus on an activity as a way to avoid doing a chore, and then the chore never gets done. I'll start hyper focusing at 8pm and next time I look at the clock it's 3am. It absolutely has drawbacks. The best way to get out of it (for me, at least) is to set an alarm (if I can remember).
Well, years ago Hidden Valley set up a hunt a la Willy Wonka style, but with only one golden ticket in one bottle of ranch, only sold to people living in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, the Dakotas, and participating stores in Nebraska and Missouri. The person who finds and comes forward with the golden ticket gets to learn the location of the Hidden Valley. We're always in a scramble to increase our own chances of finding that ticket, so we have to use it on everything we can get our hands on. Some say it was all a trick by the company, but the true believers like myself know it's out there waiting for it's winner.
I think the first my sister and I played was A Link to the Past. We didn't know what we were doing, and we didn't know why the princess and the green guy had the same name... We really got into the series when we watched our dad play Ocarina of Time. Detailed graphics, 3D, a day-night cycle, horse back riding... That game had it ALL.
