    How naive you are, Alice.

    I bet you still believe in things like un-robbed graves too.

    Hey Zeether, my favorite Hey Arnold episode that I ever saw (out of the, like, three I ever saw) was Helga on the Couch.

    Your thoughts on that episode?

    It's fantastic. I like that it's an insight into Helga's character and why she is the way she is, and the ending is very sweet. Also, it almost didn't get made because Nickelodeon thought it was too grown up for kids to understand, but Craig kept pushing for it.
    My favorite moment is Helga's black-haired friend whose name I do not remember telling Helga that therapy  is common and acceptable in this day and age; and the 1984 rats reference because what the heck kinda kids show references 1984?

    (sorry Odra, I hate to disagree with you)

    My equivalent to Hey Arnold is PBS's Arthur.  What are your thoughts on that show, Zeeth?
    Phoebe is great.
    Also I saw quite a bit of Arthur and it was pretty good. I've noticed it recently has addressed a lot of stuff like autism which is cool.

    You should totally listen to it! I'll be playing music and resisting the urge to swear on http://wrfl.fm and on the actual legit radio in Lexington on 88.1 FM. ^_______^

  • Had a day off from Uni work by doing fuck all, browsing Yik Yak, playing a bit of The Sims 3 before getting bored, and now onto playing on my PS3. A good day, aside from the demon baby inside of me.

    Let me tell you. About Fallen London.
    ACIV went on sale at Humble Bundle, so I finally walked the plank.

    Everyone else is exploring the apocalypse and building relationships with companions and stuff, I'm just gonna be stabbin dudes and singing shanties.

  • this was apparently a real ad in the 80s.

    I'm not sure what's more shocking, the twist at the end where the guy is apparently a wizard, or the twist at the end where it reveals what the ad was actually for.
  • Apparently someone set the fire alarm off in the Uni library.

    This is what happens when you have no social life and spend all day in your dump of a room.
  • At least I'm going home tomorrow. Gonna get shit done. Hopefully.

    After a long nap.

    I wonder how many people are aware that STOP signs were originally black on yellow

  • why those dates

    why those dates

    1935 was the year the first MUTCD was published.

    1948 had a new edition that introduced a lot of stuff that's still in the modern one, like the FHWA typefaces.

    And they just used 2015 because that's now.
  • I see

    I was curious because i wanted to know when the black yellow/red white swap happened

    This was before retroreflective sheeting was widely available, so the sign had to be a relatively light color if you wanted to be able to see it at night by your headlights alone.

    Once they could make retroreflective signs in the 1950s, they switched to red because red already meant "stop" in traffic lights.

    Some private property owners use odd-colored stop signs due to a mistaken belief that only the government has the authority to erect standard signs. I've seen blue and green (!) variations, myself.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    if it's not true that only the government can erect standard signs, can I put a stop sign wherever I want?

    I know in several states (including PA if I'm not mistaken) you can't privately own a yellow schoolbus so I guess that's not that weird.

    Not quite. Most states have laws in place preventing you from putting up your own signs on public highways, but if it's your own property you're actually encouraged to use the standard signs to manage traffic.

    Ohio has that law too, or rather, a law that any school bus no longer being used as a school bus has to be painted a different color. It's not that widely enforced, though.
