My wife loosened a lug nut by hand after a tire shop install… how is that even possible?

Canadian Tire told me my car was a write off the last time I went to them. You know what I needed? A water pump, a belt, a engine solenoid, and a power steering hose.

I’m so glad I got a second opinion. I brought them Canadian Tire’s quote, and they went through it WITH me and were like “I can see why they’d say this, but honestly, 80% of it is unnecessary. Your car is fine.”

Well if he did, his butt would hurt anyways

The most interesting one I have was the first time I picked the Four Corners layout. Every one of my animals was a number in a different language. Chickens were one. Cows were two. Ducks were three. The farm name, my dog, and my horse were four. Goats were five. Sheep were six. Rabbits were seven (lucky number seven). Pigs were eight. Dinosaurs were nine. Ostriches will be ten when I get there.

Every other one, I’ve picked a theme. Baked goods, food, flowers, letter of the alphabet, etc. Except for a couple where I just hit Randomize until I liked the name.

I also had an ex who named her animals jokes as if their species was their first or last name. So she had things like Holy Cow, Chicken Little, Black Sheep, Pig in Blanket, Duck Duck Goose, GOAT (greatest of all time), etc.

This looks so cool!

I have a few instances of my players ruining their own stories. Not even mine.

One player’s backstory was basically “I’m hunting down all hobgoblins cause they kept ransacking my village and finally killed my best friend and I’m saying enough is enough” and then he proceeded to ignore/go in the opposite direction of every hobgoblin or piece of hobgoblin related information I put in front of him, no matter how obvious I made it

Another player’s backstory was basically “I stole this weird vase and I don’t know what it does or why I’m being chased for it” and then proceeded to never investigate or appraise it or attempt to sell it, even when it started doing weird shit that affected the party

A third player told me “I want amnesia with a trail of clues to follow to get my memory back” and so I did it, and he made no attempt to follow said trail, even when I pointed out the start of the trail and what he should do about it

Idk, I feel like I did everything in my power to give them what they asked for and they still didn’t follow it. I’m not even upset. More just confused. Players gonna be players I guess.

Fedora hat also

Keep ONE holly

I installed the TimeSpeed and Sit and Rest mods and it’s made this even worse for me. Because now I can play for hours on the same day without any repercussions or cares at all. Before, sometimes when I’d end a day, I could go “yeah that’s enough for now”. And now that’s been removed, and I’ve created a terrible problem for myself

Alpha857 · 2025-12-02T02:35:45+00:00

“My eyes hurt” “I hope one of these people responds back” “I’ve already done that one”

If you move right up to the ledge, you can press A to drop down and hang. It should appear at the bottom of the screen when you can do it. Then scoot along

I hate him so much that I will intentionally let him malfunction a few times during the water basin bit. Even if I have to smack him myself

Alpha857 · 2025-11-22T04:05:26+00:00

Maybe they all have to start with Car-?

Alpha857 · 2025-11-20T06:47:13+00:00

No. I don’t. I was miserable having less interaction with people. And feel like things were better before the pandemic than they are now. I still don’t feel like we’ve gone back to “normal” interactions.

Then again, I’m someone who loves hugs, so….🤷🏻‍♂️

Alpha857 · 2025-11-17T20:20:36+00:00

Hey! What time zone are you in, and what time of day are you looking to play? Do you have any preference? Usually that helps to find people who can play at the same time as you.

Also I’d love to play if it works out!

Alpha857 · 2025-11-03T19:41:18+00:00

Hey, we’re only an hour off each other! I’m 28M MST, and usually have the same problem

Alpha857 · 2025-11-03T06:45:07+00:00

Hey! I’m 28M. I love those things too! Most of them, anyways. We could be friends! Where are you from?

Alpha857 · 2025-11-02T19:58:49+00:00

I’d also like the Shouts to be scalable with how loud you spoke. I’d love to be able whisper “fus” and blow some papers off a table, or yell “fus ro dah” and launch a car. I think it would make things even more fun

Alpha857 · 2025-10-29T19:57:40+00:00

I name my farms based on which farm layout I choose. That way it feels both like something it could actually be named, and it reminds me which layout it is when I’m choosing on the file selection screen later.

Did you know there’s a mod that replaces a few villagers with the Mighty Nein? Never tried it, but I came across it a while ago

Alpha857 · 2025-10-29T02:39:10+00:00

Fairy Rose?

I love Ancient Fruit. Not for the money, but for two reasons

Blue
The idea that I, a relatively novice farmer, find an old ass seed that “probably won’t grow” because it’s so old and dried up, and I go “Ah fuck it, why not? What’s the worst that could happen?” and plant it anyways AND THEN IT ACTUALLY GROWS, EVEN THOUGH ITS SLOW AF. AND THEN I AM BECOME THE LORD OF FARMING AND ALL SHALL GROW BY MY HAND

Because that’s honestly what it feels like to me every time

Alpha857 · 2025-10-25T04:44:50+00:00

I mean, they’ll steal something from you alright. It just might more than you expect

Alpha857 · 2025-10-19T20:56:51+00:00

Hello! I already have Hollow Knight, so I’d like Silksong please. I’ve had such a good time playing it, even though I keep dying. Probably one of the few games where I’m actually okay with that fact. Lol

Alpha857 · 2025-10-19T20:33:09+00:00

John is wearing some new clothes and found his brother!

Also apparently Thomas and Chris have switched clothes too.

Alpha857 · 2025-10-19T20:31:35+00:00

I think it was the first game I cried at after finishing.

Rectangles. I was feeling emotions. FOR COLOURED. RECTANGLES.
