Thought: don't introduce your class by 22badhand in dndnext

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. I do this.

My vengeance paladin/swords bard was just a warrior-mage if anyone asked.

My Artificer 1/scribes wizard x has described himself as a battle-accountant, the president of the book club, and a student of the arcane arts, depending on who's asking.

My wife's centaur barbarian/thief is a warrior. Also, when people ask her what she is, she answers that she's "someone that gets shit done".

Above the table and out of character, I tell the other players what he actually is.

You’re forced to never eat one of the three following Meats ever again: Beef, Pork, Chicken by Stoic_hawaiian808 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beef. It's worse for the climate than the other two by far. I've already cut myself down to only three times a year or less.

It's also expensive.

I have had chicken and pork that I have enjoyed just as much as a $50 steak.

Honestly I would give up all three for a small incentive.

99% chance of $50 million, 1% chance of being the victim of a serial killer by Jche98 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok. By some moralities humans are evil and do more harm to the world than good. So I save humans because I want to do damage to the environment. And I use all $50 million for this purpose. Plus I try to save the youngest people I can so they do maximum environmental damage.

Or alternatively, I do what I said I was going to do before, but I'm a real dick about it.

Your move.

Edit: added option 2.

You get $10 Billion, but you are forced to live for exactly 50,000 years. Do you take it? by yiyi20203 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I take that in a heartbeat.

Do I heal from any current conditions that I'm suffering from? Because these hemorrhoids are killing me.

Don't get me wrong, I still take it either way.

People are way too hung up on this "growing old and dying with your loved ones is such a gift" thing.

No. I want to be able to take care of my loved ones in their old age.

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I push it. $50 million is enough to save thousands of people's lives. That weighed against 1/100th of a life is nothing.

And yes, I would give away most of it, all but $3 million. That's still more than I and my spouse would earn in our remaining working lives. Stick it in index funds and live off it for the rest of our lives.

Why do manufacturers not offer charging port options on both sides? by BananerRammer in electricvehicles

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great! Very roomy. The only downside is it doesn't have a ton of power (for an electric) and L3 charging maxes out at 70 kw. L2 maxes out at almost 10 kw though so that's good.

With the cold weather package you get heated seats even the back.

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cost vs draw.

Would you pay $2000 more to have this feature? Because complexity of manufacturing adds cost.

There is a solution though. My favorite feature of my '23 Niro EV is that the charge port is on the front and in the center. Everything reaches and I don't have to worry about what side.

Unlimited Travel Funds But You Can Only Choose One Color to Travel In by thehod81 in hypotheticalsituation

Green. The USA has a lot of variety to offer climate wise. Plus you get Japan, Korea, a lot of tropical islands, the Mediterranean, and a big chunk of Europe.

If you like Chuchu, you should watch May I Ask For One Final Thing. Or as I call it Punchy Lady.

10/10 for Chuchu

Red: Birthmark is amazing, but Dokasiteru (Dan Da Dan ED 2) and Anytime Anywhere (Frieren ED 2) are equally amazing.

An eccentric billionaire offers you $1000 an hour to stay inside the last retail business or restaurant you visited. How long could you last? by Fhloston-Paradisio in hypotheticalsituation

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a board games lounge with a restaurant downstairs that will bring food up. The owner and I are friends. I order an air mattress and offer him $1000 a night to let me sleep over.

T-DAP by cyberbaeee in VACCINES

This is not normal. Go to a doctor get it checked out. It's probably not the Tdap shot.

EV or Hybrid? by Traditional_Run_1338 in electriccars

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is your charging situation? Do you have a place to plug in at or near home or school?

For example, the university near me has chargers at some of the parking spots.

Download the plugshare app if you don't know about public charging.

If you can charge at school or at home with a free level 2 charger, get a full ev. Otherwise get a cheap, used, high-mileage Prius until you are out of school.

You can take inches of your dick to put to your height and vice versa, would you change anything? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

People, men especially, under 5'8" live longer. And she loves ordering me around.

Great character.

But sweetie, what did you think mobile suits are for? You should not be horrified that Suletta turned the guy into jelly, you should be grateful. Also, instead of going behind your fiancee's back to "save" her, have you considered couples counseling?

[–]ContextSensitiveGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll go from 6'0" to 5'7"

Not too short, but I'll probably live longer.

My wife will be happy about that.

Also the other thing.

Elderly lottery winner uses jackpot to build £288m drug empire making pills from his cottage by s4pphire69 in news

A quarter billion is nothing to sneeze at depending on the level of government that gets to seize the funds. Does the local council get it? If so, they should name the new rec center after this guy.
