Snub nose .44. The most noir of all guns.

Kind of an Only War vibe on that as well.

Maybe options to have a character kind of in both worlds? Sometimes you like playing the space marine, mowing down foes to the God Emperor by the swarm.

Sometimes you want to play the poor fucker with a mop and a bottle of floor cleaner to face off against the space bug trying to drink your juices.

@Lithium
We have one of those here. Drives me nuts. Always closed for a few hours the same time every night. Still claims to be open but have never been able to order anything. If I can't get food you aren't open!

As a long time player of Space Station 13, I honestly can't think of many things more entertaining then playing good old Scruffy just trying to keep the damn hallways clean while everyone keeps getting shot.

I used to work in a group home for teens. Which meant selling axe all day every day.

When asked why they would do this most of the time they would reply "because girls like the smell."

I had to explain to each generation, if girls like the smell you should apply less of it. If they can smell it from across the room they have no reason to come any closer. They already get the scent they want with no need to interact with you. You apply just enough so that they can only smell it once they are in range to talk to you. This is for two reasons. One, they will associate talking with you with a positive stimulus, this will make them look forward to talking with you even if you aren't the best conversationalist, and secondly it makes it a draw to get them close enough to interact with you.

Sadly that worked better than trying to tell them women hate the smell, since that one they just would not believe.

@somasatori
You sir will be among the most sweet smelling anarchists I have ever met.

Hey maybe you live near a lake or something, but over here we actually have letters from the water company that basically state showers should be taken every other day. If you have a large family stagger them so not everyone pulls water in the same day.

...

On the other hand it also encourages us to share showers if comfortable with that option so there is that bonus?

I live in California. We don't have enough water for showers every day. You have to accept that sometimes people are just going to smell in the summer.

Can I just comment, I don't know whether I should laugh or cry that we literally couldn't even go one election cycle since the Voter Rights Act was deemed "unecessary" before almost every single place that it applied to reminded us how badly we needed it?

Even if this is simple incompetence rather than voter suppression a federal over watch committee would have at least made sure there enough fucking ballots.

Well I can say for some of those jobs, literally the only reason I am not currently in nursing now is because my entire college budget was less than $4,000. That had to go to tuition, food and rent. Working part time got me through some of it, but there simply was not enough money for me to finish and so I had to drop out to seek more employment hours per week just so I would not also be homeless.

If I had some assurance that i could go to school AND eat I would certainly go back.

It's actually worry about point 1. japan found a way to automate butchery which over there is considered a highly skilled job... or was before they designed a machine that can do it terrifyingly fast.

@Insomnia said in RL Anger:

Tip to anyone playing a vampire who decides to play the long game and torment people; mess with their cable. They will absolutely lose their shit.

That might be even more torturous than my idea of making sure a car breaks down in front of them on their way to work every morning.

That is actually a good point about the firepower I hadn't thought about before.

Having a few hundred knives doesn't make the knives any stronger, it just makes them hit a LOT more often than having one. Game design wise the best way to logically assert this would indeed be by making the attacks more common instead of more damaging.

@somasatori

That is a tough recovery. I'm very impressed that both of you made it through that. There's fewer things more painful than the withdrawals caused by the substances methadone is used to treat. It took a lot to get through there.

Having new priorities is definitely the most important thing. I used to work with teens that often had drug problems, the only way to actually kick the habit was to replace said habit with something new. The more consuming the addiction was, the more things you need to become interested in and the more intense those interests need to be. Glad to see she's focused on building a new life rather than just weaning off parts of the old.

Had to say it somewhere. Just so proud of my little brother.

He's at prom tonight. Took out a girl he's known for a while now that we've been pushing him to go out with (and have been leaving him alone in his room with when she comes over) because she's awesome. Two of her friends are dating each other as well, so they all split a limo.

He's now showing up to prom with three girls. So proud.

@Coin

Man did that get screwed up in my family then!

My sister broke 4 different noses (a couple of them twice) in High School and is general the most aggressive out of all of us.

Meanwhile I was the one checking in on everyone when they were sick, cooking soup for them and treating injuries.

It's almost like... gasp people are different!

Also fuck that guy for talking bad about Sarah Conner.

The gaming store I go to has a large number of female regulars, the majority of regular players on the days I'm there are Asian, and most of our fights rarely are beyond which rules override which other rules.

Then again maybe my experience is not standard.

@Ganymede

Sadly not. I was typing brain stopped and looked back at the word and was like "That... isn't right." then another part of my brains went "look it's a word, it's spelled right obviously that's right you're just being paranoid."
