Sure, but then you remember that she was seven years old. Somehow an almost-toddler vampire doesn’t strike me as very scary.

But Snow White grew up and became more and more beautiful, and when she was seven years old she was as beautiful as the bright day, and more beautiful than the Queen herself. When the Queen once asked her mirror: “Mirror, mirror on the wall, Who is the fairest of them all?” it answered: “My Lady Queen, you are the fairest here, But Snow White is a thousand times more fair than you.”

Here’s the original in German, it also has an English translation but it’s shit.

The story is really about how if you’re a woman you shouldn’t be wanting for more than what’s given you, and that you must be meek and obedient.

Still, her reward was to get abducted and forced to marry a necrophiliac prince so I don’t know… Maybe the story actually says to not be meek and obedient. It could be a cautionary tale I suppose.

I got Populous 3 running perfectly out of the box, when Windows doesn’t really manage it. It’s impressive.

So you’re saying that person should sell their house because one of the rooms is unoccupied?

If they can’t afford it, yes? That’s what the rest of us do. We make do with what we have and budget accordingly. If something is too expensive, well tough. The problem is that a lot of people are facing problems like housing, food, and healthcare being too expensive, and all three of those things are required to live. At some point budgeting won’t save you.

I have no sympathy for people whose biggest problem is “I can’t afford this extra room in the house we own.”
