Don’t order delivery ten minutes before the store closes! That is cleaning time >_<
This happens in the restaurant world, too.
5 min from closing, kitchen is almost clean, everyone's wrapping up.........
Big party walks through the door.
You can bet there's a raging kitchen staff when you do that. Don't be those people.
@thatguythere said in Good TV:
That is my one quibble with Legends of Tomorrow as well.
One?
ONE quibble?
Man even bringing Constantine on the cast couldn't get me watching Legends this past season. I forced myself through previous ones and hated myself for it.
Bring back Wentworth Miller and get rid of Caity 'I don't know how human mouths work' Lotz and then we'll talk.
Hey party people! There's a Weyland-Yutani scene going down tonight!
If you have a W-Y character, be around tonight at 5pm PST / 8pm EST.
If you don't, well.... The Coward (http://horrormu.com/index.php/Coward2/Bates) is still open! You've got 3 hours to get through CG (CG is super easy!) and dive right in! 
@auspice Touche. I think the other nerd group I stalk said they might be temporarily invading /r/MUD.
For the best. We have a few MUD players around (or those that sometimes play MUDs), but we def. aren't a MUD community.
But yeah, if people think we're bad... the TMC forums were like a bare-knuckled back alley fight.
@auspice I wouldn't be concerned about here. There was a bunch of drama llama stuff going on at TMC. Our drama llama stuff is like a bunch of family at Thanksgiving.
Well, I mean here as in..... if they lack their forum and want somewhere to go.
Because their shit is just, man. I don't want their shit!
@testament said in General Video Game Thread:
don't really think it's making a commentary on immigration like a lot of people are saying it is.
I heard this and just could not wrap my head around it at all.
@three-eyed-crow said in TMC:
Whoa. I didn't check their often anymore but it feels like the end of an era. They're still, for better or worse, one of the more complete listing services the community has.
The site is still up. It's just their forums that have shut down.
Which uh, makes me a mite bit concerned about what might come here.
(I'm moving this thread to Constructive, btw, @Tyche.)
Been at work since 8am.
It is 1pm.
7 hours to go.
Just gotta remind myself that I get paid overtime this week.
And that we are getting tacos for lunch.
And whatever pastries and shit are left over, I get to take home (the perk of being the one who closes up the office).
The alarm on Alexa works simply because I'm so out of it in the morning I can't remember the word "snooze."
By the time I can formulate the words "Alexa, snooze," I'm awake.
Plz play.
I am sad with so much of the W-Y crew being idle.
Like man, why aren't people chomping at the bit to get some Evil Company play in?!
@mietze said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
The air pollution is so bad I can taste the particulates as soon as I go outside and the light cast from my skylights is rust orange on the carpet.
It looks like grey fog in the distance but it is not.
At least it's not as bad as Delhi or anything but I'm thinking about investing in a mask since I do a lot of apartment deliveries so that's a lot of exertion, and I have asthma!

I had to buy one the last trip I made to SC because of the wildfires there (they were under strict 'if you have any breathing issues, do not spend time outside' rules) at the time and the few days the air quality was bad before I moved away from the Seattle area, it was handy there, too.
My asthma is very, very air quality dependent. That particular brand has a lot of fun patterns, too! But I'm boring so I got the black. 
How is progress on this?
Any new updates? Anything that could be done to help out, perhaps?
My coworker apparently telling a user their computer is "pdf confused."
@sparks said in General Video Game Thread:
So, the Monster Hunter World port for PC is out, and more solid than I expected. Performance is good! Joining up with friends is marginally less obnoxious than it was on the PS4 (but still obnoxious)!
But for whatever reason, Steam will just constantly flash '<name> is now playing....' for it.
I had to finally shut off the notifications. I kept seeing you (and about 4 other friends) pop up on my screen every few seconds and it was driving me mad. 
My net died this morning. And not in an outage or anything but in an "we'll need to send a tech out tomorrow" sort of way.
So unless the tech actually makes it before I have to start working... I'll have to reschedule the appointment, drive into the office, and repeat for Wednesday.
Who wants to take bets I'm offline for the week? This is Spectrum we're talking about.
@arkandel said in Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff:
I feel like this was referenced here before as a 'maybe this will actually be good once it's out.' So... hopefully.
I actually need to find the time/money to get to my doctor soon for med adjustments of what I'm currently on. Which is rapidly approaching 'max dosage.' 
So hey, maybe I'll end up trying this shit sooner or later.
@Auspice is apparently not popular with my kittens, Artemis just decided to 'help' me by tapping at my tablet and setting an ignore. I was just away for two days and they are going nuts with excitement now I am back.
Whaaaat!
Man. Cats these days.
Misty.
