Do they say “Yoy-lir”?

I don’t think a lot of people from Texas are referring to Euler by name, but I’d imagine they’d be predisposed to “Oiler”

Yoy-lir

You made that one up.

Edit: Upon reflection, I think this might be what I would phonate as “Ee-oy-lir”, like “Eeyore”, which I would accept.

Six sigma is literally a methodology based on reducing defects on the production scale of millions. Not every business is a high-volume manufacturer, and there’s no reason to treat them that way

Glad that I didn’t have to, because I was totally going to

Did SubGenius use it? It definitely started as Discordian.

It’s super useful as a tabletop GM.

It’s great for illustrations (like a character or shop interior or something) where I want to give players a gist of the vibe, but it’s not something significant enough to commission an actual artist.

It’s also great for generating story beats, NPCs, names, encounters. Generally I make a lot of changes, but I’m way better at modifying something that exists than coming up with something out of thin air, so it works well for me.

Everyone still in the GOP is either a Nazi or a nitwit.

Pretty sure they don’t have to, you can opt out and pay the full bill come tax day. That would certainly put sand in the gears.

The only book I’ve ever reread was The Illuminatus Trilogy, and I’ve reread it twice. I give out copies of that one too.

The show gets boring very suddenly, then equally suddenly gets great again. Turns out, Lynch left the show for that exact period.

I compulsively buy copies of Prometheus Rising so I have them on hand to distribute to interesting people.

Anything else by Wilson would probably be a more productive starting place.

Yeah and pacifism gets you killed when a knife comes out. I’d love to take the high road the rest of my life, but I don’t think we’re gonna turn-the-other-cheek our way out of this.

Eh, I’m sure I’d get used to it.
