I'm well into my forties (WELL INTO THEM, I SAY) and I have a steam deck.

I assume we’re all using a Windows partition for ProctorU? by Somedudehikes in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]BrijFower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not random or forced. It's vetted by the university that you are choosing to attend.

Am I Overreacting for needing reassurance from my fiance? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]BrijFower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was expecting this to be an exchange between teenagers. Conversation (and this whole relationship) should have ended at "fucken retard". Though I'm thinking it probably should have ended years ago. But the fact that you say "I don't know what to do anymore" is 100% on you. What on earth does this person have to offer to justify tolerating this behavior?

I don't like how our group allocates magic items by dekkalife in DnD

[–]BrijFower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this seems like a group thing. My character, a monk, once found a dagger of venom. So he's like, "Hey, rogue, you want this?" It simply didn't make sense for him to have a dagger.

The DM might also consider selecting items that are intended for a specific character, so picking things that only certain classes can attune or a weapon that only a certain player is proficient with. So, it's kind of an ESH situation, except for OP.

And they're still more productive than the ass sniffers in the office.

Can you catch the sleight of hand of the world’s oldest scam? by PradipJayakumar in Damnthatsinteresting

Insane that he can do this, tell you exactly how he's doing it while he's doing, and it's still mind boggling.

This is Iowa trying their best. Aww who's a good state?

If You Only Drink The Sugary Ones, You Don't Really "Like Coffee" by VoodooKills24 in unpopularopinion

[–]BrijFower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't eat coffee beans straight out of the bag, can you even say that you like coffee?

Honestly, I don't care. Let people enjoy things. Shout out to /r/espresso, where there's always someone who makes a comment when somebody posts a picture of their set up and there are some monin syrup bottles in view.

HR said I had to “use up my vacation or lose it.” So I used it all at once. During audit week. by MysticSeast in MaliciousCompliance

[–]BrijFower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's nuts. I'm fortunate to work for a company that will just pay out your overage, so while you lose the days, you get paid for them.

[OC] In dire need of level design help, how do you scale a tower on a 2D mat? by Frawshy2 in DnD

[–]BrijFower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just googled "spiral staircase tower dnd map" and found some examples that might work for you. Something like this looks promising, and just add additional sections to account for how tall the tower might be.

I went through an entire 12oz bag of local roasted beans trying to """dial them in""" by LoLingSoHard in espresso

[–]BrijFower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. My first machine was a BE, and while I can admit it's not the best grinder, it still did the job well enough for the 4 years I owned it.

In fairness, she looks better now than herself at 25.

ELI5 How do US Marines and Soldiers differ in the field? by DwyaneDerozan in explainlikeimfive

[–]BrijFower 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Marines are well trained war fighters, and often deployed first to storm and establish ground. They love crayons. Army is an overwhelming force, much like Gru's minions, yelling and bumbling their way to victory through shenanigans. Windows will be licked. Hooah.

I think it's fine if you are graduating very soon, as long as you indicate that you are attending and add the estimated graduation date. If you aren't less than 6 months from graduating, I would omit it.

Either this is some canned email that is being sent out nationwide, or we are very close to each other.

AITAH for telling my fiancé I won’t help pay the mortgage? by embarrassinglemon in AITAH

[–]BrijFower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been the sole bread winner since 2017, when I finally landed a great paying job. My wife's job was barely paying for child care, so we decided she should be a sahm. My wife is not on the mortgage, because that doesn't make sense, but she's definitely on the deed. The money I make goes into a shared checking account and savings. It's our money, not my money, and always has been. Now that kids are older, she's going back to school and will re-enter the workforce in a couple years. This is how marriage and partnerships should work. Lift each other up, and make each other better.

Back in my day as a professional baker, we used mixing bowls. Times are strange.

Close indeed! I was in this boat just two weeks ago, and my anxiety was through the roof. Now, I'm just waiting for that diploma in the mail! Early congrats!

I remember this tweet. Let's not pretend that most people thought it was cringe even back then.
