I am just a very thin layer of charming with some funny sprinkles wrapped around a huge creamy center of raging arrogant a-hole.

I've been classified as essential... in a round about way. The division of the company I work for is partners with a major pharmacy chain for remodels and other special projects.
When they pulled the plug and indefinately postponed all projects, they called us in as reinforcements at our local stores. Mostly for packing out product and also helping out as needed in other areas. So... I still have a job.
Food situation is ok so far. Gas is absurdly cheap and traffic is nearly non existant. I was a bit of a shut in before it all hit, so not really that big of a deal.
What I am seeing out there in the very few places I do go however, it's startling.

I will probably take the image of your face in my mind to the grave...
But I will probably forget your name 90 seconds after you tell me.

Here's the thing... you might think and say that, but what about the fans in Europe?
Yes, there are enough fans in Europe that the NFL is taking it seriously and meduum to long term growth plans include Europe.
Consiter:
• 4-5 regular season matches are already held in London.
• The league wants to host a Superbowl game in London... soon.
• London is going to get a team, possibly as soon as the 2021 season.
• When the Raiders home was uncertain before the start of the the 2019 season, London almost got to host all their home games. They also almost got them as their own team early as they were shortlisted and given serious consiteration as a permanent home.

Pretty sure these were a thing since the White Picket Fence, Duck and Cover Leave it to Beaver days back in the 50's.
They might have been balsa wood back then, but little different otherwise.
Besides, the balsa models with a real prop and a wind up rubber band, those were the shit.
Probably the first introduction to structural engineering we had when we started going mad scientist and modifying them.

Full circle? Nope, you've got your aphorisms mixed up. This is the fulfillment of prophecy.

I read about this fairly recently... I seem to recall that the result and aftermath were so catastrophic that it ushered in sweeping changes of the regulations for the handling of hazmat... particularly explosives.

With clumsiness and bad luck at that scale, the choice of hobby really needs to be reconsitered.

I still have the %appdata% link bookmarked though for iterative save file archival... especially if I'm about to try something dodgy and I might need to revert.

Why not just use a launcher? Search for, download, install, manage and play multiple mod instances and still leave vanilla intact.
Just sayin'.
