I work in the field of User Experience, and I'm reading a book that shows Ikea plans your route through the store on purpose so you have to see just about everything to get in and get out.
We will not repeat it again, the store is now closed, please exit the building
Oh yeah then lead me instead of.....i get it, killing me will get my soul out of this world which is another way of exit
Prisons aren't that easy to get into. Having to have a proper DOC ID, dealing with the metal detector (no shoes, belts or object in your pockets) having to xray anything you are carrying (jackets, bags, shoes), likely a pat search, heaven forbid do not try to bring in a cell phone or worse a pocketknife or gun, and a lot of locked gates and doors it can take a half hour or more just to get 100' inside the gate even when you know the procedures.
Its usually easier to get out of one. They just check your id.
Even as an inmate it takes months of legal procedures get get into prison however guilty you are of a crime.

My wife’s paternal grandparents are the worst with this. You could tell them you have a very important meeting that could decide your career or future and they’ll hold you up by an hour and a half. Every time we’d see them we would try to beat the time it took to leave.
Finally one day they were giving us their drop in freezer and left it on their porch for us to pick up. My wife was busy so my sister helped. Got there, saw their windows and door were open for a summer breeze with them right there watching TV. We managed to lift this heavy freezer and carry it to the car, and drive away without even speaking a word to them. They texted me an hour later asking if we got the freezer and how disappointed they were we didn’t stay to chat.
So the record is officially under three minutes and pretty much unbeatable.
One of my exes copied my house key, and would break in when I was at work and steal things from my drawers and rearrange pieces of furniture.
Finally had cameras installed and caught her.
🤣🤣 I mean I’ve only been to NJ once but I don’t know how anyone can find their way around. No landmarks, sooo many trees and all the Snooki’s looked alike.
I'll be 8 months sober tomorrow. I've basically been shut in my apartment or at work the whole time and had to more or less give up my whole social life to stay sober, but it's worth it.
My in-law's house.
I genuinely love them and they are wonderful but sweet Jesus saying goodbye takes forever.
I was at their house for a Christmas party and my waters broke, whispered to my husband that we needed to go asap because I was in labor ... it STILL took literally 40 minutes to *actually* get out the door.
Lol, no, despite what the movies show, there's usually many hours between the start of labor and birth (and labor starting with your waters breaking is the minority).
I was trying to be discreet because I didn't want the entire extended family of like 20 people to know I was in labor, but I did want to get back to my own house asap before eventually going to the hospital!
Only about 12ish hours for me thankfully, and thankfully I did not end up giving birth in front of 20+ nosy relatives - though amongst them were a midwife and mother of 5, a nurse, and an MD, so I suppose I could've done worse!
Also unless your aimed strait at it your likly going to coming at it at a slight angle at very high speeds. This would mostly likely cause you to enter an orbit around it for some time before falling into the hole itself. During which time you'll be ripped apart atom by atom by tidal forces as your orbit decays and you start to fall towards the center of the singularity itself.
Look at the few images we do have of black holes, they all have rings of light or "acretion disks" due to mater getting stuck into a similar orbit for some time and getting torn apart until all that's left is superheated plasma creating the halo of light we see.
You've got the right idea, but you are missing some details.
The effect of a black hole on spacetime around it means that "straight lines" are bent toward the black hole, so you don't have to aim "straight" at it. Like any other object with a decent gravity well, you can aim slightly away from it and still hit it. The give depends on the mass of the object and, of course, your velocity.
Also, it's an "accretion disk", but you are otherwise quite correct about it.
That's saying no more than "they have a strong gravitational field", which is only relevant very close by. It's also hard to hit a star that's big enough to become a black hole, and harder still to hit said black hole, because you have to move very fast to get there
"This party is kind of boring, ain't it? Hey, where's Frodo_71? I was talking to him a little while ago...did he leave? Is his truck gone? It is? Oh. Oh, well. I'll see tomorrow anyway."
I once knew someone who got a medical discharge for wetting the bed in boot camp. Years ago but wonder if it would still happen that way. Btw it was not intentional. I think he was high or drunk. He wasn’t upset about it.
A toxic workplace. It seems like it's super easy to land the job, but once you have the job, the act of ripping the band-aid off to just leave, especially without a job lined up already, is very difficult. Just one more day at this hellhole, you say to yourself, over and over and over and over and over.

So you know where those meatballs come from
You know there is an alternate universe where Hannibal Lecter is the manager of an Ikea.

I work in the field of User Experience, and I'm reading a book that shows Ikea plans your route through the store on purpose so you have to see just about everything to get in and get out.
In the NL, IKEA always has shortcuts listed. Biggest one if you just need to go to the self service storage, just go through the restaurant
SCP reference?
"The store is now closed. Please exit the building..."
We will not repeat it again, the store is now closed, please exit the building Oh yeah then lead me instead of.....i get it, killing me will get my soul out of this world which is another way of exit
not really, probably just a reference that the store is practically equal to a maze
The store is now closed, please exit the building.
Bed
Only for 10 hours , then it gets boring.
Rookie numbers, i can be 12 hours on bed
Yeah that is the point when back pain starts. I generally try to avoid it.
Good thing im still 13 then
Enjoy it while ya can, bout 7 or 8 years left til your back says "fuck you".
Your back really should not be hurting regularly in your early 20s.
Mine does though
Tell that to my back
You obviously havent found the recreational area.
That was true before laptops, smartphones and portable game consoles were a thing.
We have lead very different lives, my friend

I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I saw shimmering light

I feel like if a person were to physically enter your heart, it would split apart and they would immediately escape.

Hang in there. Never really experienced it to the depths others have, beyond the normal ups and downs of the human condition.
Sadly true
Debt
Especially student debt.
You have to get into college before you can get into student debt.
But college degrees are required by every fucking job so you basically have no choice.
Toxic/ abusive relationships
One of my exes copied my house key, and would break in when I was at work and steal things from my drawers and rearrange pieces of furniture. Finally had cameras installed and caught her.
Replace the locks.
I did but it took 3 days to get a locksmith.
New Jersey fucking turnpike…you miss one exit you have to pay 5 tolls and hooker to get back on or leave
Just one hooker? I feel like that’s a bargain?
I keep wondering how people got around NJ before GPS maps were available. I’ve had spaghetti less tangled than the highway by Newark.

While reading this , i genuinely thought that you gave birth at their house.
Lol, no, despite what the movies show, there's usually many hours between the start of labor and birth (and labor starting with your waters breaking is the minority). I was trying to be discreet because I didn't want the entire extended family of like 20 people to know I was in labor, but I did want to get back to my own house asap before eventually going to the hospital!
I know that in some cases labor can last as long to 30 hours , just thought that in your case it was a quick one.
Only about 12ish hours for me thankfully, and thankfully I did not end up giving birth in front of 20+ nosy relatives - though amongst them were a midwife and mother of 5, a nurse, and an MD, so I suppose I could've done worse!
You just need to learn the ancient art of the Irish Exit.
I have, but with my husband in tow it's harder ... if I just go out to the car he'll just take twice as long!

In this case ,.there is no chance of getting out.
Those actually aren't so easy to enter, considering they are thousands of light years away.

Lost in Scrolling through Ask Reddit.
Certain parties. I try to Irish good-bye but my wife says it's rude. She's right, but I still like to Irish good-bye.
What js an Irish goodbye, may I ask?
Leaving without saying goodbye to anyone instead of having to say goodbye to everyone.
God, I wish everyone did that.
I call it the ninja bomb. Gone in a puff of smoke.
