  • No no, some people have to learn from their own mistakes.

    You tell a toddler to not reach up and touch the stove because a burner might be hot. You don't tell a 25 year old man not to touch a burner - by that age they should have either learned from extrapolating data about the world, from their childhood experience, or someone else's experience. Regardless, at a certain point, you just let morons burn their fingers.

  • I had some, before I moved.

    Let me just say this, what came easy to young me in boy scouts... well, I'm just glad if I hit a safe area in the general direction I'm aiming.

    The other issues is as a boy I shot off the right of the riser on a longbow, and this was an off the left takedown (recurve) bow - still the amount I sucked surprised me a little, lol.

    So hopefully you have time to practice.

  • I mean, chemo is primarily used for cancer - however it is also used to treat some autoimmune and blood disorders.

    I assume you mean as a healthy person though, which yeah... sounds miserable if you have no reason.

  • I played the first PS. Loved it. If memory serves, I usually cloaked up, used a knife, and tried to capture stuff.

    PS2, well... I played the beta, I didn't care for the stealth changes. Then, it released and I played a little... just couldn't maintain my interest, plus the unlock system was kinda punishing and made it seem too P2W for me.

  • I'm kind of the opposite, lol.

    I miss my overnight shift.

    I'd wake up, the world was quiet, there were no harsh lights to contend with, very few coworkers to deal with, even less management...

    Just go in, put in my earbuds between calls, and do my shit. Then, when everyone is grumpy and trying to get coffee, I'm going home.

    That being said, when the time changed it could be a blessing and a curse.

    On one hand, sweet, short(ish) day... well, 11 hours. Then it swings the other way, and 13 hour shifts suck even more than 12 hours.

    Watching the time roll back an hour feels very unfair when you're on the clock and just want to go home, lol.

  • Honestly, igniting it is the hard part.

    Well, and putting it out...

    Making though? Pretty simple.

  • No.

    No sisters, and my mom didn't wear them.

    I would have though.

  • Yeah, I didn't mean this bill would pass but... the sentiment makes it more dangerous for some people I care about.

    The politicians push this shit because they think they have the support of the people, at least in the form of votes.

    I'm not so worried about the government. Not much most of us can do if the military turns against the people. I'm worried about bigoted neighbors feeling empowered.

  • Grew up in Texas. Moved recently, to another state.

    The bible, or lack thereof, isn't the issue in Texas schooling. Nor the countrywide issue of gun violence.

    This is clear governmental overreach and defies separation of church and state.

    Fuck these clowns. Sideways, with a two foot dildo covered in shark skin. Twice, so they don't forget the lesson.

    PS: As an anecdote, up to fourth grade I was enrolled at a christian private school. Parents had money at the time, and they were touted to have the best education. I learned more about the dark, nasty, terrible side of life there than I did any other time in school - and I watched a kid get dragged down the hall by his ear by a former marine for smoking crack in the bathroom when I was in public school. I also would have never learned how to play poker or blackjack in a public school, lol.

  • We (The US) don't have the gestapo. Our fascists wear uniforms and badges.

  • Well shit, one of my relatives, and a few friends may be in trouble soon...

  • It was suppose to be a cautionary tale, not a fucking guide book.

  • Oh shit, you just made me realize when I get my first pay check I should really invest in a decent UPS. I had to sell my old one before moving state lines to condense space.

  • I mean, I can think of a few ways to turn a person off...

    Turning back on, well... I heard about one guy. Took about three days. That being said, the author(s) aren't very reliable.

  • Yep.

    I work in IT, if I'm on a call or actively working a ticket that I can finish and just ran out of time? I'll stay, happily, and finish it.

    I'll help cover vacations, and if I like the company, other people calling in to an extent.

    The longest stretch I worked was when I was much younger (and dumber). Retail, before the holidays. There were a variety of contributing factors at work, but in the end I worked 22 days in a row, most often 12+ hours a day. The OT pay was nice, don't get me wrong, but I quickly learned that my time and well being are worth more than most employers can offer, even with OT adjustments.

    I slept over 24 hours straight, and my body hurt ALL over for two weeks. That was with a wonderful girlfriend at the time who knew her way around a massage, and was happy to do so when asked - and I needed it then, lol.

  • I don't speak French, nor have I ever wanted to learn.

    The French got a lot of shit after WW2, but that was a long time ago.

    That being said, the French sure knew how to throw a revolution. More recent events over there involved less guillotines, but they still gathered as a people to make themselves heard.

  • I rocked long hair from grade school to my mid 20s.

    Then, a lady friend (platonic) sat me down and had a talk with me.

    The thinning, now seemingly always greasy, strands of hair was not a good look. Like, don't visit a playground or I would be arrested on site lol.

    So, being a metal head there are two main options, or at least were at the time. Long hair. Or take bare clippers to it.

    So, I did.

    That first winter fucking suuuucked. Still to this day, I tend to rock a hoody in cold weather, and toss my hood up to cover my head for warmth when outdoors.

    Sometimes I let it grow out for about a month before taking clippers to it again, out of sheer laziness. A month of growth, from shaved, isn't much in the way of hair, but temperature wise it is very noticeable.

  • I loved Control.

    I absolutely could not get into AW, and it bums me out because it seemed intriguing.
