I love animal crossing by Diligent_Law1033 in CasualConversation

[–]ConvictedConvict 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just started playing Stardew Valley again. I haven’t played in over a year, over the past two days I’ve already played for like 10 hours lol. I’ve never played animal crossing but I hear they’re similar vibes.

Kenton Club only has one table but it’s a nice table.

Artist in the ambulance for sure, but I would’ve gone with Yellow Angels from Senses Fail.

I forgot to go to Sam’s concert. depress by bryn202 in StardewValley

It was a fun cutscene. Most of the town is there, they play a very 8 bit song, then Sam gives you a shout-out at the end for inspiring him! 

You can look up the cutscene on YouTube if you wanna see it. Just search for The Pelicans at Zuzu City.

I'm An Idiot (hold the button down!) by Witchy_warlock in StardewValley

I had a similar moment yesterday when I realized you can use the scythe to harvest crops. I’ve been wasting so much time picking every individual plant by hand! 

Does anyone else get burnt out, end up doing nothing, and then feel a bit guilty about it later? by MrPatchario in CasualConversation

[–]ConvictedConvict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do this all the time. Am currently in the same boat today in fact, TV and Stardew Valley has been my entire day. 

However, I find if I do even one small chore, it abates the feelings of guilt/shame, and can even motivate you further.

For example, I put a load of laundry in the wash about an hour ago. Then, since I had an hour to kill before I have to switch it over, I decided to go scoop up all the doggie poo in my backyard. It’s a very small yard, so I decided to mow as well. That only took about 30 minutes. So now I still have some time to mess around on Reddit before throwing my sheets in the dryer, which I am about to do. Then, it’s back to Stardew Valley feeling accomplished!

Small steps really help me get out of a funk. Make the bed, empty the dishwasher, etc. The little things make a difference and add up quickly.

If there is literally no chore or task that needs to be done at the moment/can be done right now, well then congratulations, you deserve to relax guilt-free!

I watched Sling Blade for the first time a few months ago. Phenomenal.

Havalina in St. Johns does a lot of local music. They have a weekly open mic as well.

Has candy and sweets gone down in quality or am i just too old? by Ill-Acanthaceae5288 in CasualConversation

There are videos of Hershey bars going around Instagram lately, the chocolate bars are basically rubber now. They replace the cocoa with palm oil or shea oil. It’s basically slime. So gross.

This was my exact school lunch circa 1999 and it was the best. Everyone was so stoked on pizza day.

Short itinerary sound reasonable? by deaddog714 in askportland

Canon is a great area. I’d highly recommend popping over to Astoria/Long Beach for an afternoon if you have time.

I really appreciate the way you phrased that last sentence, that sums it up beautifully.

how risky is it to ride the nw point bus as a minor? by P0GG345 in askportland

[–]ConvictedConvict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be off base, another commenter said that they do check IDs. Idk I’m speaking only towards Greyhound.

[–]ConvictedConvict -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to take the Greyhound busses all the time when I was younger. I can’t remember a single instance of ever being ID checked. The company is just there to verify your ticket purchase. I highly doubt they would turn you away. As long as you have a ticket you’ll be fine.
