Has anyone else seen that goofy, inspirational story on facebook about the girl who lost weight because her boyfriend deserved "a gorgeous piece of arm candy?" I find it interesting that that story popped up on my feed again in the midst of all these articles and comments that ladies are posting about entitlement and harassment.

So just to try something off the wall, I set up my PC to mine Dogecoin while I was at work today.

I made... (consults several charts)... 4 cents!

Yeah... you really need to make a box specifically to do this if it's your thing... but it costs quite a bit upfront and it won't pay off quickly ether.

Honestly, it's one of the things I miss about NJ this time of year. The honeysuckle is usually in bloom now so it makes the rain smell even better.

For me in this area it's lilac bushes and pine trees. When it rains the smells are just intense. Years ago I went to visit my father in North Carolina in the spring and I was super home sick because the smells were just... off.

Lately, for me, rain has meant pools of standing water (the drainage around here's kinda shoddy), which means mosquitoes galore.

Ooh, gotta keep up on that. As much as I love the sound and smell of rain, around this time it is an absolute annoyance. I mean sure my body has gained a massive healing factor from skito bites, but I am pretty much the minority around my household.

That dress will rock you like a hurricane. Or three.

Ok, they're actually Typhoons, I think, but there's no pun for that.

I don't think it even pays for the electricity used to mine it, personally. I guarantee you my GPU pulled more than 4 cents worth of kwh.

You guys might be right. After all, I don't think the "teeth" decal were common on typhoons... but the cockpit still looks more like a Typhoon to me.

From what we can see on the dress my first thought was Warhawk as well.

First, to me they are more iconic than the Typhoon, for example.
Second, whenever I see the sharkteeth nose paint my mind goes 'P40'
And after close inspection of the dress and comparing Typhoon and P40 pictures in the end the canopy and wings on the dress, at least to me, look closer to the P40.
Anyone who knows where to shop for a dress like that might give the definite answer though. :)

Im betting on a Hawker Tempest.

EDIT: the offical product page says Flying Tigers Squadron, that means they are suppose to be P-40's

You need to supplement your wattage by hooking it up to a solar panel/s. Even then, you have to do this on a fairly large scale to keep it profitable.

Or you can steal electricity by hooking it up to the power at your place of work like everyone else seems to do. More than one successful farm is ether piggybacking on the mainframes or power of a unsuspecting third party.

They look almost exactly like the photo posted by LittleSin. If you zoom in on the dress, you can see the cockpits are not bubbles, they trail all the way back to the tail section.
Also, those shoes look uncomfortably tall.
Also, the model reminds me of Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Had to track down the dress via google since nobody posted a link, but yeah, once you zoom in you can see the cockpit attaches directly to a raised section of fuselage, albeit with a little artistic license in the shading. So definitely P-40s. It just isn't apparent from the initial photo.

I went to McDonald's specifically to get a Happy Meal, and thus a box of the new creepy Happy mascot, to use in scaring my wife, and later my cousins.

Well, I put it in the fridge for this purpose, and I keep forgetting it's there. -____- Yeah.
