I had a d100 that was far better than this hunk of....mess.

It still took forever to finish rolling, unless you rolled it against bumpers. Two d10 are still the preferred method.

It's a joke playing into the joke from the post from an old webtoon called Homestar Runner. You obviously didn't get it. Half a second of research would have shown you your entire rant was unwarranted. Go pound sand yourself.

Short answer, yes. Longer answer, it follows the exact same method as marketing does. Has a television commercial ever made you immediately get up and rush out to purchase the product? Probably not. But the commercial plays over and over and over again, to the point you get sick of it. And then you go to the store. And you need hemorrhoid creme. And the only brand you know of is Preparation H. Not sure why, it just sticks out in your brain that it is the best to use for your certain situation. So you buy that because it really hurts to sit on your ass and you gotta get back to watching that TV.

It's all marketing. If there were three names on the ballot and you don't follow politics very much, you will be more likely to pick the name you heard and saw more often.

If the signs were designed to be viewed by motorists, I'd agree with your shifting blame onto the driver. But they are targeted AT drivers, so I'd leave blame exactly where it is, on the signs.

> You cant even see details a few inches from what you are looking at.

I mean this is untrue for the most part. I can tell you the hat on the stand twelve inches to the left of my focal point is blue. The lunch bag further is black. I can tell you what's on my other monitor.

I can't give you words or tiny details but to say I can't 'see any details' is just false. Our peripheral vision does a really good job at constructing a basic idea of our surroundings even when not focused on them. We'd never have survived if it didn't.
