Skype is free and unlimited to make VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) calls. In otherwords, calling other PCs is free, calling real phones costs money.

So like and hour passed and I hadn't sipped any of it. and when I go to sip it, I notice that something solid is in it. So I'm like, "No, why would there be something solid in my coke?" SO I pull these solid THINGS off my tongue and guess what they are? F ING ANTS! I was like WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And so I ran into the Kitchen coughing and what not and I threw those little bastards down the drain with a flood of hate and cold water.......those bastards are lucky I don't have my Nucians yet!!!

Standard numbering on dice with an even amount of sides results in opposite facings always equaling the highest number of the die plus one.

However, d20s tend to be the dies that break this standard the most. Not discrediting your fact just adding another one on top of it ;P
