I remember I got into shoplifting for a brief time when I was in my mid-teens. Ironically, it started out as an honest mistake. I was looking through the Commons/Uncommons box of Magic cards, had like 20 cards I was planning on legitimately purchasing, continued walking around the store, got...

I had no reaction to the first shot. Fortunately, my shot was on Friday afternoon, because when I had the second shot, there was a period on the following day (Saturday) for a good four hours that I felt absolutely miserable. It suddenly came and suddenly left and I was able to carry on the rest...

You know, I watched some movie based on that, but I don't think I ever read the story. Apparently Marley was the ghost of his former business partner (yay wikipedia). But fortunately, I qualify as one of those "foreign folks" since apparently it was first published in London, so I don't feel too...

Huh. One of my groups did roll20 while we weren't meeting in person during the pandemic. I can't even remember now what they were, but I remembered we had issues with that aspect of roll20, so we always went to discord for the voice.

Hmmmm, I suppose Fantasy Grounds or Roll20 could work + Discord. That would probably be the closest we could do to "gaming in person".

Well, I'm from Minnesota, but my point was that most of us are within the US and that even though we come from different states, it would be a little easier for us to actually get together than someone who would have to leave their country and fly across an ocean!

Yeah, considering that the Hive consists of someone from Finland (iirc) ...

I wonder what a gaming group of the Hive would look like. We'd get along in real life, right? :cool:

Trying to add another person into your gaming group? :p

This wouldn't mean much to me considering that I am an only child! So go ahead, insult the sister I don't have as much as you want! :)

Sometimes I do as well, but I understand why it could be bad. While some people are able to discuss either rationally, many people simply cannot. Some of the best political conversations were with a person who was able to see beyond party and discuss actual issues and events that were occurring...

It's not even just TV. Like, I would be totally fine if she cosplayed as a tv character or something. But no, she went as an Emmy... so it's like a tiny percentage of the US that actually cares about the Emmys. Which maybe is more representative of how the US works... representing a minor...

If you had gotten all of that at full price, your mother probably would have been right. You could have gotten a 2-liter at a grocery store for that price, but not a six pack. The juice is a little costly, but then again, juice at the store is also expensive. And their little containers are also...

Yeah, I know that feeling. I'm sort of at that "overweight but not TOO overweight" area. Like I'm definitely overweight, but I'm not to the point where I can't do anything about it. I actually just started trying to work out, mainly doing a little bit of weightlifting and some leg/ab work. Not a...

I feel like "type" is just an excuse to avoid the truth. And the truth could be one of a bunch of reasons. Like there is either a specific trait in the other person that they don't like or there is a specific trait in the other person that they require and unfortunately the other person doesn't...

It's funny how I think that about the live action versions of certain things. Like, I totally understand why they don't, considering the attire of the anime version, but that thought had kind of crossed my mind as well (and I thought that for the live action Princess Jasmine from Aladdin too)...

Oh, and related to tv shows, the Wheel of Time series started over the weekend. Three episodes out. As someone who has read through the series several times, it's definitely a surprise to see how certain things and people are portrayed. However, overall, it's not bad. I hope it is successful and...

I admit I don't know a LOT about the pricing, but I feel like that actually isn't terrible. Trades jobs are simply expensive with the hourly rate regardless of any factors. I have a friend who is an electrician and I forget the exact rate that he would charge people, but it's ridiculously high...

I've watched several episodes of the show. I honestly am not sure if I have never watched it or it was so long ago that I don't remember enough of the show to know anything about it anymore. So I'm basically coming in brand new and honestly, it's not amazing, but overall I'm enjoying it. One of...

Well, at least you didn't have to hire someone else to do the work for you. My HVAC teacher works for a residential HVAC company and has worked for several others and I guess part of what they attempt to get you to do is buy stuff. Now, the more reputable companies will at least be legitimate in...
