@BetterJudgment Yes, they've left. But the game will forever have their stank on it. They're better off just starting fresh and making a new game. It's like trying to rent out a house after the previous tenants shit all over the floors and wiped it on the walls. Sure, you can clean it. But you'll always know it was there.
Prob better to make a discussion thread for this post.

I was just coming back to pick up the address
Good luck and if Matt Murdock's available when you return, I am going to play Daredevil. Damn it!
I've got my fingers crossed ZG will find a way to let people keep their original chars if they claim within a certain window maybe.

You can do it! Just keep thinking of your mom and nothing else.
That's what I'm trying to do. Focus on her. Not my brother. Not my dad (who is prone to fits of being-an-asshole).
This is an 'RL Thing I Love' with a taste of 'RL Thing That Gives Me Terrible Itchy Anxiety and Horror'
Some of y'all who frequent imgur may have seen the promoted posts from Mikes Hard Lemonade for their giveaway for Mother's Day, offering winners round trip visits to surprise their mom.
...I won one.
I entered because the last time I saw my mom -- the only time I've seen her in a couple years -- was a rushed two days for my grandmother's funeral. We got to talk in snippets. And she was the driving force behind convincing my dad to help pay off the rest of a small loan I'd taken out for school years ago... and when they did, her only ask had been that I get my passport so she could take me on a cruise 'someday.' She misses me. So I entered because it was a pie-in-the-sky 'My mom would appreciate it' thing.
I mean it's not like 'anyone' wins those.
...I did.
And since it's only 3 days and one of my coworkers who I only overlap 2 days of work with has said he's happy to swap days with me whenever I need a weekend off (I'm taking his old shift while he moves to Mon-Fri)... It looks totally doable.
The anxiety comes in with the fact that just last summer, my brother made death threats against me. Part of the prize package is I can accept a hotel room, so I totally will to avoid having to stay in the house where my brother is, but still. I'm really, really terrified of being around him. I miss my other two brothers (who are awesome), but I'm really uncertain about being around him.
I just have to not let the anxiety stop me from submitting the prize winning paperwork/forms on time. ![😕](http://musoapbox.net/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f615.png?v=4vfms5ns7sl ":\")

Getting let out 4 hours early on a Christian holiday when you're not Christian.
I'm shoplifting the fuck outta this resurrection thing.
I have a Fiat 500. Most things would destroy me.
But I also just... don't care. It's not like I drive horridly reckless or anything. I mean they're the ones who decide, while side-by-side with my vehicle when I'd have no way of seeing a turn signal.... to just suddenly begin to merge as if I might slam on my brakes or try to fling into the next lane over.
But I just really don't care anymore when I'm the only one in the car.
@Ganymede said in Good or New Movies Review:
Zack Snyder is, and was, incapable of appreciating the nature of DC Comics
You could've ended the statement right here. And for evidence, I point to:
https://www.indiewire.com/2019/03/zack-snyder-defends-batman-killed-person-1202053359/
When that article (or it might've been Kotaku's?) went out on Twitter, two of the primary writers for Batman for DC right now (like, guys who ACTIVELY WRITE BATMAN) had an overwhelming response of 'WTF'
Snyder doesn't get the characters he's writing/directing when it comes to DC. He has this sort of 'reimagining' goal and then gets angry when the fans don't like his personal take on things.
Ubisoft is giving away AC: Unity in response to Notre Dame
It's kinda corny, but I like their reasoning: let everyone experience Notre Dame in some way. (vs how it's become some sort of weird humble brag contest on social media for people to talk about their trips to Paris?)

Garrus is cool.
I'm gonna wait for Liara, thank you.
Nearly fucking cried my eyes out before the final battle, when Shepard parted from her.
Nah. Garrus isn't cool. Garrus is bae.
Then get yourself a Garrus body pillow (cover).
I thought I-35 was annoying for people merging at ridiculous moments ('Oh there's half a car-length open? lemme merge on in.'), but the route I take on my new commute is worse.
Been at the new job a week and I've twice now had people try to force me out of my lane by merging in on top of me.
Motherfuckers I have severe depression. I would welcome a severe, life-threatening accident that I am not at fault for. Bring it on.
@Aria said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
And for reference if you're an in-person kind of shopper, those stores are Nordstrom's, Soma, and Lane Bryant. All of which do fittings, but Nordstrom's seem most accurate and knowledgeable about things like.... bras that fit your shape, not just your size. Boobs are many and varied!
I tried Lane Bryant once and they wanted to go up to a 40-something+ on band to keep me within the D/DD/DDD structure. It was......comical.
It's why I'm glad that the Breakout Bras storefront was where I used to live in SC. Got a proper fitting and once I was within my proper size, the difference was just amazing.

I can almost guarantee you cash money that the discussion about this color choice in the hospital went much the same, and they still decided on bleeding-torso.

bookmarks new bra sites My problem lies in finding anything NOT a sports bra that doesn't irritate my fucking ribs that will never effing be right again after surgery and shit.
This is my favorite sports bra. The last one I had (been waiting to find it at a price I can afford again :P) became my daily bra because it was the most comfortable bra I owned and the girls did not move at all during activity.
Hey, y'all, this awesome guy I met at SXSW Gaming is streaming all day today and raising money for https://npitx.org/ (a non-profit post-secondary school here in TX for those with autism).
https://www.twitch.tv/kryppkeepa
Check it out, consider donating, following, etc.
Sometimes, breakoutbras.com will do a 'grab bag' sale where you pay like, $20 and get a random bra (from their overstock) in your chosen size. If you aren't picky about brand, it's a good way to build up your bra collection. Heck, can be a cheap way to try out new brands.
They also have really really really good sales on swimsuits after the season. I got mine for $12 (tankini top, usually $80). Because homg buying swimsuits by bra size is so much easier.
@Sparks said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
Finding a comfortable, durable bra is like finding a unicorn.
Sadly, I have not caught any unicorns recently.
Curvy Kate's Daily Dream bra is the winner for me. I'm waiting for some spare money and a sale to buy a new one, in fact.
