@Too-Old-For-This said in RL things I love:

@Wretched Hey, I still shop at Goodwill. There is NOTHING wrong with secondhand clothes.

To all the people who come into a retail establishment minutes before close just to 'see what you have,'

Speaking in the spirit of compassion and love due to all fellow travellers on this crazy jouney through the cosmos on a spinning ball of dirt, and recognizing that every living being contains a spark of what we call the divine,

You are all fucking garbage, I wish bad things on you and those you care for, and if you approach eating establishments with the same narcissistic disregard for the employees you deserve every drop of bodily fluid you have, I assure you, unknowingly consumed over the years.

I think a lot of people don't take tooth infections seriously and let me tell you IT IS SUPER SERIOUS! That is an infection NEAR YOUR BRAIN!

On top of that... if you wanted to design an ideal place for bacteria, a microbal Shangri-La, you want a moist, dark space around 100* F that constantly has organic matter coming through.

If the many biological defenses your body employs to keep you from decomposing from the mouth back aren't working, you need to get on that.

@Packrat I got by on good genes and good luck.

And, yes, an enormous head that can handle wisdom teeth without incident.

@Sparks said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

First off, congratulations!

Thank you!

...elopement came up. But I think I'd die of my mother's silent not-angry-just-hurt.

(My dad would probably be p cool with it tho)

@Pandora said in Do You Do A Writing?:

That's sound advice, except I tend to release my longer fics one chapter at a time - so skipping ahead wouldn't make much sense, chronologically.

You don't have to release it, just write it.

Yup. Write something, then write the bridge when you have a handle in it, then release stuff

For some reason, telling a retail employee that you "aren't looking for anything in particular, whatever you have in my size"

And when they come back with ideas, breaking down the long list of dealbreakers you didn't think to mention

doesn't trigger a five-minute Purge in the confines of the establishment.

Someone should get on that.

@admiral

Yo, if this by how Austin is, y'ain't selling it on me.

"Keep Austin A Surreal Nightmare-Land?"

@tinuviel said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

Waking up.

I mean, beats the alternative.

Is there functionality for a 'report' option from users? Something so that people can say 'yo admins, I think this post breaks the rules' without publically announcing it in the thread?

It would be used to flag posts by people reporters dislike, but it might be a better option than threads falling into "no you shut up" spirals.

Hey, who remembers "rainbow parties"?

How about "butt chugging?"

Neither of those were things, of course, but you know what were?

Streaking, phonebooth stuffing, goldfish eating, panty raids, and pole sitting.

Young people do dumb shit.

@too-old-for-this

Oh, are we posting comics? >_>

@deathbird said in Poll: Are MU* video games?:

Nah. They're really just chat rooms with other nifty things added in to them.

Yup. If a MUSH is a video game, so was AOL Instant Messenger.

I voted 'no' b/c my MU* experience is the RP sort, where the game is typing words at people who type words back at me.

If the game is typing commands at a system to go through a map grinding MOBs for loot drops, that's a vidya game.
