    If I feel I am getting lazy or burnt I will get up and walk around for a little bit. What kills Turking for me more than anything is when I cannot get some quiet and some peace. Really hard to want to do anything besides mindless batches when I have moving pieces around me.

    I do, actually. From the recent discussion we had the other day, to the 'wtf' of seeingi the article on my daily Cracked.

    The only way it could possibly get weirder is if Trump tweets, "#MTG Yo Grinches, it's Stanley up in this White House now" and Clinton retweeted "#MTG Surprise! I'm Stanley, too!"

    And then the matrix implodes and not even M. Night Shamalama can milk it.

    Still trying to get the hang of Overwatch and need some clarification about the above. In order to see all the "quals" do I need to just put in an entry that would look like "Sergey@Sergey" ???

    Speak slowly, gently, and distinctly .... Great-Grandma's hearing aid is on strike! :ap:

    If there is an extra 10 seconds worth of time in a hit, *I* can take a power nap! LOL ... I fight sleep more than anything else. If I am doing hits that "fully engage me, i.e. I am having to tell my computer what I want to do using voice technology, then I can pretty much stay awake. That said, however if there is that itsy bitsy teenie weanie bit of "open air" while I am waiting on the internet to "spin and spin and spin" ... that's an open invitation for me to close my eyes and nap out. Oy Vey!

    How do you know I'm not a sleek meowwy with rainbow fur, typing this from Miley Cyrus's trimmed hoohay as I sit on the nighstick rammed into it? [No, that's actually --- there're pictures. It was one of the sessions with that dude.]

    The answer is, you don't. And the style of writing is very similar, and the events, like the 'bribe of [x] pesos' fits. It's like hearing that Gerber is putting dead babies in its formula and then going to the grocery store and they've got a brand new display of Rebreg Baby Formula in a stacked pyramid right by the entrance that if you peel the label back, has---

    Eh. I found it incredibly amusing. I'm sorry you don't as well. I mean, he could have gone anywhere to steal someone's social; I don't think it was specifically insulting to Florida.

    How do I get these AWSs to keep from backing me out after 2-3 even though the "Automatically Accept Next HIT" option is checked? Sorry if this has been asked before.

    Everyone gets into their zone their own way. For me it's Caffeine, high energy music with no words (trance, edm, etc), vaping, and focus. Focus is the important thing. Don't have FB or Reddit open. If you 420, don't, until 4:20. Don't let your surroundings control your zone.

    "Your mind is designed to be directed. If you don't direct your mind, it will be directed by your environment."

    Hope that helps!

    As much as I have enjoyed reading some folks having fun at his expense what he did and has done shows a clear psychological issue which I hope he gets help for. My brother who passed away recently had some very similar tendencies with "Stanley" and life is no fun for those who have to deal with folks with those issues directly. To be clear I am not knocking anyone for making some jokes here and there and he was clearly in the wrong but I do feel he has some issues that could cause some great harm to himself and his family.
