Yeah, I mean the Harry Potter books must be several thousand pages combined, for example, so the length isn't a reason not to read it for even fairly slow and casual readers.

The entire HP series is a titch over a million words combined, yeah. Bit under twice the size of War & Peace.

There's individual harry potter fanfics bigger than that :V

But yeah, style and whatnot does have its influence. I can't read W&P nearly as fast as I can most similarly sized fanfics, or even several other classical texts (This is largely because war and peace bores me to goddamn tears.). Still, some people can breeze through that sort of thing without much trouble. More power to 'em, ha.

Besides, do you know what kind of work it'd be to move the whole darn thing over? That, alone, is deterrent enough!

Well, that, at least, wouldn't be much of an issue. It's apparently not too much trouble to scribble up a script (or use something that's already around and online) that auto-moves that sort of thing.

E: There's also probably something on toady's end that would make transferring the stuff to another forum pretty trivial. Backup feature or whatev'. The logistics of moving isn't really a substantial obstacle, is what I'm saying.

Probably going to be three different kinds of lava or some crap come tuesday's update. You'll be covered.

... also, I totally just noticed the announced date is actually on a tuesday. Finally, I can say it's due tuesday without having to add transparent text questioning which tuesday! +1 meta enjoyment.

Honestly zero creativity but zero XLs can still be entertaining.

FTFY >_>

Skype, HL. Or something similar. There's places online where you can find native speakers willing to practice with you, iirc, or at least there were a decade or so ago. Know a couple folks that were in my french classes back in high school went that route, and used it later on to pursue actual fluency (after boatloads and boatloads of practice). Useful stuff if there's no one local available. Incidentally, consider asking whoever's teaching you for resources of that nature.

Barring that, maybe youtube or something -- look for stuff from native french speaking countries, listen in, try to parrot it until you're more comfortable.

Nah, I'm pretty sure there's at least a few that would be willing to give it a go gratis. There's the occasional fellow that gets jollies from that sort of thing. Hell, there's probably some straight critters that'd give a roll at it, just to mess with Santorum. Only money needed would be to set up a proper meeting, really.

'Course, Trump being one of those rich folks, there's good odds it wouldn't even occur to him to try that venue. Something something no price tag no worth something.

... isn't this one of the least mobile characters we've seen in a while? It has a(n apparently less effective) TF ult someone can buddy up with, but other than that the most it has is some situational MS buffs. No serious gap closer, no vault-type thing, no meaningful escape... fishcritter actually seems to be pretty lacking in the mobility department, overall. Just has a fairly slow teleport included.

... except not giving some freaking fast food would not have been treating them badly. It would have been treating them like everyone else, at the least. Instead someone who's going to be hit with multiple counts of racially motivated homicide got special treatment. Thus people are pissed.

This is a case of a heinous criminal getting accommodation above and beyond what even petty criminals get. It does not paint a pretty picture, especially given the circumstances. Now, if it turns out luxury food is normal for criminals in that precinct, okay. That would explain things, and people would probably be less incensed. If we've gotten confirmation of something like that, it'd be nice to know.

The Dalai Lamas might be closer to it than most.
