Any soup is cool enough to eat on a first date. If your date gives you crap about something as inconsequential as what kind of soup you're eating, your date should be discarded at your earliest convenience, because they have shown themselves to be an opinionated twat that will bitch about things that don't matter in the slightest.

One thing the other comments aren't mentioning that is relevant: this wasn't free. A second-level spell slot was expended by someone to make this happen, and since this is your first big quest, it's likely that it was a significant resource investment because you're a low level.

My cat knows exactly what it wants when it yells at me. I just had to learn how to speak cat.

The meowing is just to get my attention. Once walk over to him, he'll walk over to the place he wants me to go. At that point I have to figure out what he wants me to do there, but it's usually food dish/water dish/couch for lap sitting.

The official answer is that you cannot promote a pawn to a king, so this situation would never arise. However, this is Anarchy Chess, so let's set that aside.

If this situation did happen, and it is Black's turn, it is not checkmate, because Black's bishop takes the queen. It could not be White's turn, because there is no way to arrive at this board state on Black's turn without one or both kings being in check at the beginning of the turn, and so Black's move would have needed to remove their king from check.

Therefore, this board state is not checkmate.

Period flow can happen without warning, and even if there is a warning, it's not usually something that girls are comfortable enough with to want to announce the reason in front of a classroom.

Go for it anyway. If this girl is so shallow to reject someone for something stupid like that, she's not worth it and Anon dodged a bullet.

"Hey, guys? I really need you guys to come back to work now, all the not working is starting to eat into my profit margins."

For union dues, I'll sometimes bring up strikes. People know that when unions strike, they aren't working, and when they aren't working, they aren't getting paid. What they don't realize is that most unions pay the employees during strikes, and that money has to come from somewhere.

It's a screen cap from a video talking about Japan's involvement in World War 2, where they invaded Korea.

There's a few reasons.

The biggest reason is that bittorrent doesn't download segments in order. YouTube is a video streaming service, so the video will stop playing after segment 5 if you don't have segment 6, regardless of how many segments you actually have. This is a user experience issue, and it would basically make YouTube unusable for the current use cases.

Peer to peer file sharing, as you might expect, means that other end users are providing the videos, not the company. This means that the company cannot guarantee transfer speed, file completeness, or even that the file is the right file. This may end up causing them some legal trouble in the platform current state.

Peer to peer also means that the videos need to be stored in multiple locations, with multiple copies, and Joe Schmo doesn't have a datacenter in his basement. There will end up being a limit to how much content can be stored, and things that people don't watch simply won't be stored anywhere, so you wouldn't be able to look up that meme video you liked 14 years ago.

It's just not a good way of providing data as a service to a customer. It's an alternative for smaller sites that can't afford, or don't want the paper trail of, appropriate data server sizes.

"Sunwise", and for the exact same reason.

Clocks go clockwise because their predecessors did. What were their predecessors?

Sundials.

How does the shadow go around a sundial? Well, sunwise, of course.

Counterclockwise, as said in another comment, was "widdershins", from a Middle Low German phrase meaning "against the way".

No, he's claiming that he shagged David Attenborough.
