Not my proudest moment, but definitely funny.

Don't know if I was ever banned but I was definitely asked to leave a go kart track when I was about 10 or 11. It was a kids track with only a few karts to choose from but they weren't even as far as performance went. I had picked one that turned out to be slower than one another boy chose, so he kept lapping me as we were driving around. I've always been very competitive so I was just getting madder and madder as this smug little shit kept passing me even though I was pedal to the metal, so I made a decision. One lap as he was just about to pass me I wrenched my steering wheel to the side and ran him off the track. I was, of course, spotted by an attendant who stopped me and brought me over to my very embarrassed parents then asked us all to leave. I don't think the other kid was hurt, but I didn't care enough at the time to check so he might have been.

The real deep state is the friends we made along the way.

I think an Amazon owned company would actually default to Alexa, who's voice is equally terrible. Why pay more to develop a better voice?

They're only worth what someone would be willing to pay for them. What's the scrap value on a cybertruck?

Edit: trying to learn not to call young adults kids, even when they totally look or act like one

This is admirable, I could do better about that myself.

It's worth pointing out that the reasons they support Israel as an ethnostate are largely two-fold

  1. They believe that a restored Jewish state in Palestine is a sign of Jesus's return, meaning they'll get raptured soon.

  2. They want Jewish people out of "their" country.

Zionism has a long history of antisemitism despite the apparent contradiction.

But the driving is terrible and so is the AI and so are the tracks

That's my opinion of Wii, but Wii also introduced bikes which have also stained each subsequent entry so it gets my vote for the worst in the series.

Wii, Super Circuit, and 7 exist, so your argument doesn't hold water.

Sure it isn't Double Dash, but it's definitely not the worst.

Stories like these are why I love the ttrpg community. No question of does she belong in the hobby, just "how can we make her feel comfortable joining the party?". Being cursed to only sing is also a perfect backstory for a bard.

If the Scatman can do it so can you.
