RL things I love

[Thenomain]

The only unusual cards that I've really wanted to play with for game design reasons are Hanafuda cards. I used to play a computer game using these cards back in the days before time, and when I could no longer get it to run I was truly disappointed.

I feel like I should photograph my cards... But they're almost all standard playing cards of various designs/styles.

Go for it! It's the designs and styles I like.

I cannot imagine ruffle-shuffling those.

Resurrecting for this.

I found out how to do it. It's remarkably easy and actually quite elegant.

For all these stick cards, you hold them at the base with a slight incline so that the top card in each stack is a little bit forward and the bottom card is a little bit back. You then put these stacks together so the inclined surfaces meet and push together until the flex upward a bit. Then you slowly pull back and they riffle-shuffle BY THEMSELVES.

It looks and feels bloody magical!

I love it when people admit I am intimidating. YES, FEAR ME. One of my favorite things.

In what way are you intimidating?

[Kanye Qwest]

@Misadventure I am blunt. Super blunt. What little wit I possess is sarcastic and a bit acidic, and I don't hold back when people get in my space with bullshit or smalltalk. I'm mean. I like to argue. I have resting bitch face.

Aw, @Thenomain, don't get all jealous. You have adorbz cheeks too. SO ADORBZ.

I've been told I'm intimidating, too.

I honestly don't understand why.

Ever see/read Pride and Prejudice? You know the part where Darcy tells Elizabeth that he didn't think Jane's feelings for Bingley were the same because she wasn't obvious in her expression and Lizzie's like, "SHE'S SHY!"?

That.

Well... see, I think I'm VERY expressive, so I try to tone it back actively.

Oops. >.>

Also, for an RL thing I love...
Between moving, trying to save up to be able to get my cat, etc... I don't really have spare money. I've been yearning for the last few upgrades my desktop (gaming) computer needs. It's been on only 8GB RAM, but... the DDR3 stuff isn't cheap.

Today, while hauling things to the dumpster, I saw a mostly-gutted computer tower. Decided to check it out.

I now have another 8GB RAM in my machine.

Canada.

And this guy, specifically:

Who is also, by the way, this guy:

Who is our Minister of Defence.

Justin Trudeau is pretty cool, but this guy is the shit.

You have no idea how jealous I am that you guys get Justin Trudeau and we get what we've got. Karma, one supposes.

[Misadventure]

What we have is The Dream of a President.

It's the sort of thing I would expect Mages or Shade the Changing Man to unravel.

@Misadventure
You got a +1 for the Shade reference, good work.
