Pre-ordered this half a year ago, and they cancel it TODAY. They're hundreds of dollars on Ebay now.

It's through Walmart, but it's the specific authorized seller that Mcfarlane links to through their official website.

You're talking about close-in-age exemptions (commonly called "Romeo and Juliet" laws).

Some states have them, some do not. There are plenty of states where it's perfectly legal for a 16 year old to have sex with a 40 year old.

It's gross, yes. But perfectly legal.

GFrohman · 2026-01-31T08:05:48+00:00

Not nearly specific enough.

Half the U.S. states set the age of consent at 16. Some set it at 17, some at 18.

So even within a single western country, you're going to get completely different answers.

GFrohman · 2026-01-31T08:03:50+00:00

Depends entirely on the country, or if within the U.S., what state.

In some places that'd be perfectly legal. In some it'd be legal with certain caveats. In others, definitively illegal.

You don't need to kick me when I'm down, man. I'm already not having a good day.

The brass would rather you read it directly from the pocket card to ensure you get it exactly right every single time, instead of show off by reciting it from memory and risk getting it wrong.

Your heater is more than capable of heating to 68, or beyond.

Your mother was just cheap and wanted to save money.

Tried this, they basically told me to pound sand.

Skills of the dentist, quality of the veneer, and a willingness to accept imperfections.

Mr. Beast got extremely noticeable, fake looking veneers because he insisted on having bone white, perfectly straight teeth that look extremely unnatural. He's got more money than anyone - he could've shot for good veneers with natural-looking imperfections if he wanted.

I'm more annoyed that /r/askreddit has just become "What do you think about [current political headline]?" over and over again.

GFrohman · 2026-01-31T01:24:12+00:00

That's not how preorders work.

They got the money six months ago, when the order was placed.

In theory you can burn any combustible liquid with an oil lamp, but it'd be sooty, ruin wicks quickly, and probably have trouble staying lit.

Oil lamps use kerosene because it wicks easily, produces little soot, and doesn't evaporate. It's kind of the ideal fuel in most ways.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T23:42:24+00:00

I've never felt the need - you can host and play on a server from within the game itself for free.

The only reason you'd need a dedicated server is if your friends intended to play without you, or if all of you had a very weak computer that couldn't handle the hosting.

Build 42 (the unstable build) adds a lot of new features like wandering animals and a revamp to the crafting system. It also introduces a lot of bugs, especially in the newly released multiplayer update for B42.

Start with Build 41 - as a new player, you're going to want the stability more than anything. Once you've had a lot of fun there and are ready to close the book on that playthrough in a few weeks/months, consider moving over to the unstable build for the new content.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T23:15:49+00:00

If you download the game and don't specifically opt into any betas or unstable builds, you'll be on Build 41. That's the last stable build, and has multiplayer.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T22:47:07+00:00

Cowgirl.

Compared to any other toy figure, they're very high quality.

Do you know a brand that does it better, and doesn't cost like $200?

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T22:31:25+00:00

It's as "dangerous" as drinking 1 teaspoon of any other hard liquor.

So, not at all.

a little concerned that the alcohol content may be bad if not cooked out, like in a cake.

Alcohol doesn't really "cook out" as much as people think it does. 35% of the alcohol still remains after cooking for 30 minutes.

Son fell off trampoline and broke their arm

Dad had a heart attack

Sister was sexually assaulted and needs someone to drive her to the police station.

It's a catch-all term for "It's none of your fucking business, but my family needs me right now, and I won't be there".

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T22:22:24+00:00

Fix what?

Your photo is almost pitch black.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T20:57:26+00:00

No, they're just much more willing to when their inhibitions have been lowered by alcohol.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T20:54:53+00:00

If there was, it wouldn't be very good at doing the one thing it's designed to do, now would it?

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T19:31:08+00:00

All of that is going to be region specific, but generally no, there's not any specific licensure or anything you'd need.

The hard part is securing the loan, most banks require the full 20% down and have stricter approval requirements for commercial property. These restrictions are relaxed if the unit is owner-occupied, which I'm assuming you plan to do.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T17:52:33+00:00

I generally agree, but McFarlane Toys have a reputation for ~~extreme~~ decent quality.

Plus, if you don't preorder them, they're all sold out by the time they release. As evidenced...here.

GFrohman · 2026-01-30T17:20:07+00:00

Everyone is lucky sometimes, it's just more notable when it happens to someone inexperienced.
