Looks like a paradox, where your choice affects the question, and you'll never be able to answer correctly. There might be some linguistics in the question which makes it possible to answer though.

The answer is E. It's cut off and not in the photo, though.

Duh.


I hate shitty drivers. I consider myself a pretty darn good driver. I can drive well in all conditions. I'm aware of the people and cars around me. I look in my mirrors subconsciously. I know how my car handles in various conditions, and anticipate the actions of other drivers.

I'm not, but I often feel like I'm the only one.

I know this is kind of random, but I take a History/Geography class. In this class, the majority of people cannot point out Asia, Europe or Africa on a map. One fellow even asked me if "this is alaska" when pointing at the Arctic Ocean. Then he brushed me off when I laughed at him like I was trying to be a dick. Frankly, I'm appalled.

Once I overheard a couple of guys at work next to me preparing for the US citizenship test. One guy quizzed him. Who's the Chief Justice? Rehnquist. Turns out they had a cheat sheet from past test takers. Back then, Chief Justice Roberts took over after Rehnquist died it was big news, so their cheat sheets were outdated. I corrected them. I then went on to ask things like how many justices in SCOTUS? Name them. Their political leanings. Who appointed them. Some famous cases they were involved in. Blank. Crickets. They were in the US for I dunno, at least five years. Probably 10. They weren't dummies. Just not the type that reads the news.

Got a new MacBook Pro (Retina). I'd originally thought I might name it "Iris," but the icon options for that word are pretty… lame.

So now I'm not sure what to name it. My desktop computer is named "Bunny" and the four hard drives are all famous rabbits (like Roger, Harvey, etc.). My previous MacBook Air is named "Brainy" and has a Brainy Smurf icon. It was my (not always enjoyed) nickname in school.

Any suggestions? Gotta have a good icon (a picture I can make into an icon is fine too).

You really have to explain that one.

Tempted to name it "Tiger." But then it'd always break down. :-P

"Dimple" sounds cool but the icon for the hard drive would be lame.

I think "LaMont" would make a great name for a computer. Or "Furyk". I like the sound of that. I'd recommend checking out this website http://www.computernamer.com Personally I like "Sharknado" But don't rule out "LaMont"

I can screencap it later, but I use the characters from the 8-bit episode of the TV show Community as my various hard drives. Some guys on Reddit were making an unofficial version of the video game one particular season 3 episode is about, and I got then to send me jpegs of their character models. So I have Jeff as my main hard drive, Britta as my Windows partition, Troy as my second internal hard drive, etc. I guess if you're not a fan of the show, none of that makes sense.

"Troll". Each hard drive memorializes your favorite SandTrap characters who've given you the most grief.

Only one hard drive in this one. Just a laptop. :)

I went with "Portal" for now. May change that to GLaDOS at some point, but the icon could stay the same.

    • Weather Outlook Friday:  Mid 70's, Sunny, No Wind  Saturday: Mid to Upper 70's, Partly Cloudy, Light Breeze Sunday: Upper 60's to Low 70's, Cloudy with 45% Chance Rain, Light Wind  I am loving these temps for golf.  I am kind of glad to get back to Northstar since I do not remember much of the course. Looking at the aerial images, I remember some of the holes, and the routing.  Reading a few reviews on Eaglesticks, it looks like it is in good condition? I wonder if the amount of rain they have gotten this year has helped out. Which is nice because it's a very fun course to play. I like the layout a lot.  The Virtues is really nice.
