Who the fuck doesn't like fried chicken and watermelon?

<shiftylook> Uh, I don't love spitting out seeds.

Don't eat chickens with seeds in.

@jennkryst said in Combat on a Mu:

One issue with a +attack PC command is that it falls apart when fighting NPCs, unless a object is made with stats that you can target.

Depends on how the command is built. Using @faraday's system as an example, you can set up NPCs in the combat scenario that have stats and equipment as necessary.

ETA: Fireworks Displays are pretty.

And should be run by professionals. Not Dave that got a good deal on 'fireworks' from the next county over.

@arkandel said in RL Anger:

The Balkans are... a special kind of place for that.

And California is a somewhat warm kind of place in the summer.

@arkandel said in RL Anger:

It's just not based on the color of one's skin.

Hey now, we Europeans have that too. We just have white-on-white racism too.

@tinuviel

We like to pimp our cars out with subwoofers and rims, but get called “ricebois” for it.

Yes, but that's how the imperialism bit works.

@ganymede said in RL Anger:

Meanwhile, I still don’t understand why the fuck white people love fireworks so much for any occasion or reason.

The boom is loud and resonant while the flashy lights look pretty.

Edit: Imperialism, but make it fashion.

Along with all that has been said, I want something that's quick enough to be worth it but slow enough to have RP involved. Automated enough not to think about it but manual enough for story decisions to be able to affect the mechanics. Also it doesn't need to be able to make sandwiches but if it did I'd want them to cut the crusts off.

So, you know. The impossible, please. And I need it by Tuesday.

@wizz Depending on where you are, the age of the participants, the time of day, alignment of the planets, which sign is highest at midnight, etc...

I would also note that hitting on people and flirting with them are different things.

really outdoorsy types

In my dating experience, those people claiming to want 'adventure' think that going to a chain retail store (like a Wallmart or whatever) at an unreasonable hour to buy snacks is an adventure because they started drinking low carb wine at 2pm.

Do the crime, do the time, keep schtum, and all cops are bastards.
Standard stuff.

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

You just always gotta remember to safeguard yourself and your rights when you do.

From what I recall of the video, this is mostly what it goes into. Not so much "don't ever call the police" more "If the police speak to you, this is what you should remember."

@arkandel said in RL Anger:

That is just genuinely crazy - folks opposing their own self-interest on behalf of billionaires.

@nessa said in Idling all day on MU*s:

Just know it can turn people away

Good.

@lotherio said in Criticism: X-Men Divergence:

Its through application and not on the web

There is a form on their site to do the claiming.

Not a solution to your problem, but still.

That's not what I was talking about. Which is why I didn't quote it.

Okay. Cool.

I was under the impression that long wait times were already considered a problem not worth dealing with, so it bears little comment.

@ganymede said in Criticism: X-Men Divergence:

If not responding to applicants in a week-and-a-half is deliberate, this is just as much as sign of their willingness to work with the same.

That's not what I was talking about. Which is why I didn't quote it.

@lotherio said in Criticism: X-Men Divergence:

I know they're not shy of players, they're doing good, but someone may want to recommend to admin updating the roster claiming process to be more user friendly.

Without a link to check it out myself, and apathy in googling, I would say it is simply part of their selection process. If one is so easily, in their mind, dissuaded from joining, perhaps that is simply part of their desire. To weed out those unwilling to participate in such a way.

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

What is the phrase for feeling like you're being gaslit by 300 million people?

An election campaign.

Similarly, we shouldn't be aiming for 'back to normal.' Normal got hundreds of thousands of people killed. We should be aiming for better than normal.
