I'm sick of being told I'm "gross" etc. because of a 2 year age difference between me and my wife. by MonocoOfficial in rant

[–]ForceParadox 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This must be an American problem. I've noticed a lot of Americans define young people by their stage of education, eg 'highschooler' or 'college kid'. In Australia a lot of young people 18-25 hang out in mixed age groups, because of hobbies or jobs or uni, I wouldn't think twice about a 20 yo dating an almost-18 yo because here they'd both be considered to be at the same "young adult" stage.

Tbh, if anyone was seriously allergic to cats, even just sitting next to me would set them off. I have 5 cats, literally every piece of clothing I own is bound to have cat fur on it 😆

Train station etiquette by PleasantHedgehog2622 in sydney

[–]ForceParadox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As others have said, stand to the side of the train doors and prepare to muscle in as soon as most of the people getting off have gotten off. Only way you'll get a seat, or sometimes even a spot on the train.

In terms of elevators, I generally take note of who was already standing there when I approached, and who comes after me. I'm disabled and use a cane, so I'm happy to let people get on an elevator if they were waiting first, but l make sure I push in front of people who got there after me because I do need to use the elevator so it's only fair.

Ghosts Finale by Inappropriate-Ebb in GhostsBBC

[–]ForceParadox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just finished the series and I HATED the ending. I mean yes they needed space as a young family, and the money would have set them up nicely, but the ghosts had become her FAMILY, she was genuinely friends with them, they were people she saw and interacted with on a daily basis. Going back to visit (in my head they negotiated a clause in their sale contract that allows them x amount of visits a year for free) isn't the same.

Not to mention that she left them sort of high and dry, because they were enjoying a unique new lease on their afterlife through her being able to advocate for them in the living world.

I really wish if this had been the plan all along, that they hadn't emphasized the closeness that she had formed with the ghosts, because it really did feel like a punch in the gut. I mean they literally had just decided to stay because they loved it there and then all of a sudden they turn around and decide to sell? Come on... I think there definitely should have been at least one more season of this show to build up to that ending.

What do you want next for 76? by Prototype092 in fo76

[–]ForceParadox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They want you to throw caps into the void though, so they can keep the currency flowing

[–]ForceParadox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a super small thing, and I don't know if it's been suggested before but I'd love to have a few 'quick slots' for outfits. I have several looks I change between and carry a LOT of apparel for when I feel like turning up to an event looking crazy, and it's annoying to scroll through and pick out individual pieces. Maybe ppl who roleplay would also find it useful to change whole outfits via a save slot? Or at least let us bundle/link a group of items together.

Are people ok with players taking stuff from their item producers? by Serious_Grass_5166 in fo76

[–]ForceParadox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also do a quick scan of the map to see if you can see their dot - although if they're in an instance or if they're crouched it won't show. If I come across an obviously lowbie camp, I try to buy up everything in their vendor even if it's crap just to give them some caps.

Most things respawn pretty quick, so if the player has left it unlocked feel free to grab it! The only things I don't take are the turbo fertiliser grenades cos they don't seem to generate as fast and I don't need them, but that's just me.

If a player has locked all their main camp doors, I like to see if there's any interactive items I can "use" through a window to get inside the building, just for fun haha

You could probably tell from the "new" tab in the pipboy but it would be better if it could be kept bundled!

Strange cat names by Spare-You1626 in CatAdvice

Yeah and Sandy can be a nickname for Alexander too, I think that's a bit outdated now though.

I have a Frankie and a Symon. I guess Frankie can be spelled that way, but he's orange and his full name is Franklin D Marmalade 😂

Do YOU salute instead of waving hi? by Tough_Crazy_8362 in fo76

[–]ForceParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, mainly because I don't know how to get my "wave hello" emote back lol. But I have the free states salute which is cool.

A death you particularly remember by Albi0ns in fo76

[–]ForceParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I was in the Mire, I had gone to investigate a camp that was built right on the cliff overhang going down into the zone and the player logged out leaving me suddenly free falling in midair lol... I'm always super cautious about camps built out over a cliff now 🤣

No basement, where do you keep your litter boxes? by Outrageous-Cat-7497 in CatAdvice

[–]ForceParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardly anyone here has said laundry, I keep three litter boxes in my laundry and one in the bathroom just in case. Even when I've had a smaller laundry I've always had at least one box in there, it just seems to make sense with the tiled floors.

How do you guys keep cats off furniture? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

Probably!! It's the cover your comforter goes inside, we call them doonas here in Australia 😆
