How does Pavlov greet his friends? ‘Sup dog

My partner was like this till his 30s, and I was a bit jealous having been kicked out at 18. He was able to buy a house( with an admittedly amazing APR) with the money he was able to put away with this method. While he didn’t pay rent he helped around the house, and was a near-guaranteed dog sitter. I think that as long as the situation works for everyone it’s a great leg up. If someone has a judge-y attitude towards it they’re probably jealous haha.

Your parents (likely) had better opportunities to get that house than you do now. Give yourself some grace, just make sure you’re helping out where you can :)

Yep! Perfect visual representation haha

Regarding MMOs in particular:

I’ll play male characters when the female model is more sexual than I’m comfortable with, always. The first that comes to mind is WoW where the male models had a lot more ‘character’ to me. If I’m playing an Orc or Worgen I don’t want to look like a green/fury generic female body that has a straight back so you can see the ‘goods’. For EQ I had a mix of Male/Female alts, but did tend towards Male.

I also tend to like the way male armor is modeled over boob-plate.

Single player narrative games will depend on if romance is an option as I’ll tend to play female, otherwise it’ll be a toss-up with consideration to my prior points.

Over the years I’ve found it easier to hide behind a male avatar/username as I’ve gotten some rough interactions over the years and will only join voice if I feel like the people I’m text chatting with are chill. Tried joining a guild recently and got more ‘onlyfans’ jokes than I was comfortable with, and I’m sure someone will say that’s my fault for being irked by it, but that’s why I take these steps.

Growing up we had a German shepherd with HUGE ears we called Moose, but her main name was PITA. Now I’ve have a dog I adopted and gave the name ‘Dug’ (from UP), and will call McDouglass as a bit when he’s done something wrong

Do we have to have so many Reddit posts here? I was going to just block as I thought you were a bot

I took it as hallucinations due to oxygen deprivation ¯\(ツ)/¯

I was in the same boat for ages and was happy paying as I kept the original rate. Then they bumped it by almost 50% end of December. Quit before the change took effect and have been using ad block ever since. The ONLY thing I miss is YouTube music as I’ve gotten too lazy to rip the remixes/soundtracks that aren’t on other streaming services.

Still no sign of Bruce, maybe a small cameo? It was pretty fun having him back for Tron in Kingdom Hearts

Everywhere I look, something reminds me of her.

( I love this quote as I drove past SONGS often and lived close enough to be mailed potassium iodine pills in case of meltdown)

TempleOS, so hot right now

The Temeraire Series by Naomi Novik is one I go back to every now and then. Historical fiction where dragons serve the purpose of air force during the Napoleonic Wars in England. I stared reading, but also quite like the audible narration.

Yeah, some youtube videos that cover basics and hiring a firm after a breech is pretty standard it feels.

I wasn’t really trying to do a Windows v Mac argument, just trying to acknowledge the sentiment at the time, even if it was driven by advertising

Yeah, that’s what I was trying to get at. Apple was (and maybe still is I’m just not in the ecosystem) pushing really hard for the younger generation to have experience in their OS. Including donating devices to schools

Apple was also hitting student deals pretty hard at that time if I remember correctly. They’ve targeted students since nearly inception.

They’re also journalist students. I’m not saying apple is the end-all-be-all, but at the time (and at least in my company still) a lot of graphics people use macs

Only as strong as your least paid worker.

You can both be right. In America we use A LOT of corn (syrup or otherwise) in our dishes. This just reminds me of when we added Iodine to our salt. A recognition that we can supliment necessary vitamims/minerals/etc.

It is, those are ‘water cannons’ they’re not squirt guns. Just adding so people understand how high pressure these things can be.
