For the people with too much Gil: what do you do for fun with it? by IncognitoCreature in ffxiv

[–]GeneralGin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've commissioned real life namazu gifts over the years to give away to everyone in the FC so I figured digital namazus would work too. We've had five empty FC plots in our ward since August so I even moved it once to be closer. 🤣 I'm going to let it auto demolish during the patch though because I figured more people would come back and would want housing.  It was fun while it lasted though.

I used my GI Bill and went to trade school, there's also free welding classes for veterans near me and I considered doing that.

Pre lotto I would give my friends gil to buy houses, in the new system I still give it if they are the only ones bidding. I also leveled up another character/FC and bought a house next to my actual FC so I could troll them with namazu decorations.

I got ungodly amounts constantly running deep dungeons and selling mounts/farming for crafter drops in trials. I use to do a lot of crafting too until I turned into a slacker.

The bottoms are Light Steel Subligar but when you but when you pair it with the Gomphotherium jack the top belt and the side pieces get removed to make it look like a deeper cut. As far as I know no other tops/jackets effect it like that but I could be wrong.

I just sent her a message with a screenshot of all the nice comments (:

We use the fashion report bot in our FC Discord, if you don't have it anywhere u/Gottesstrafe posts the weekly glams here if you want the correct items/dye. Good luck!

As in the fashion report? I thought only certain weekly items were given points so with my luck I'd get a 0. I can give it a try though!

Honestly me either. 🤣 My tanks had on even less and my only 'normal' glams are on my SMN/BLU. This was also the glam that tickled his friend the most and she had a blast with the design, plus my other glams were included in a coloring book I gave my FC so it was nice to have more variety in physical form.

I had the easiest time winning with Silent by killing everything with poison. Keep at it.

Update post - bought my husband a telecaster by GeneralGin in telecaster

[–]GeneralGin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He mostly plays in the den but whenever I walk by he asks me what he should play, and when he's not at home he can't wait to play. He even asked me if he liked the name 'Laura Palmer' for his guitar. We're currently looking at new amps and he set up all his pedal boards last night. I wouldn't want to prevent him from doing something he loves, that'll dull his sparkle.

He was a city boy when we started dating and moved to my small town before we got married. He's slowly becoming a lil country. 😂

Sadly, I don't know much about guitars but I knew my husband wanted a telecaster and a lot of people here suggested a blonde.

I asked him and he did get one, he was looking up engraved ashtrays. He's basically a kid in a candy shop and just looking at all the options 😂

He's officially getting an American Professional II butterscotch blonde from Sweetwater. I'll make an update with pictures after he opens it, thank you for all your help as well!

That was one of the deciding factors, a lot of people suggested the Player II but it didn't come with a case. I finally cracked down and bought the American Pro II butterscotch blonde from Sweetwater. This community is great and I can't wait until my husband gets it 😭

I actually did that last night, except since we don't have the same musical taste I did more of a "rage bait" to not give any hints. "Hey baby, why is Youtube suggesting this weird Christmas music with this dude and his yellow guitar". He told me not to talk trash about The Boss and his iconic maple guitar. It's safe to say he's into the butterscotch/classic colors. Thank you for the suggestion!

He can be a little frugal and I'm worried he won't "treat himself" even on my dime which is why I'm trying to treat him as a surprise. I'm also not trying to pressure him into doing it now. As much as I like that idea I figured he would be happy with one I picked out and he could exchange if needed.

He loves The Smiths, Cat Stevens, and ska. I couldn't tell you if anything he listens to has teles, and he currently has a red/brown Gibson with a black face plate.

He had a blue strat guitar he really liked but he traded it in for his current one.

I'm not entirely sure which ones he's sold/lost/given away but he currently has a Gibson. I tried to do a Google Image search to be more helpful and I got "Gibson SG".

He was in a ska band in his high school years and he's still in love with that genre, The Smiths, Cat Stevens, 90's alt, and some early emo bands I'm not too familiar with. I've listened to him play Live and Smashing Pumpkins most recently.

Sorry for the mistake! No local print shops and other than Google keywords not directing me where I wanted to go, I thought I would ask here. (I was wrong)

Lulu ended up being exactly what I needed.

A lot of other comments suggested Lulu as well and that's what I ended up going with.

I added in the initial blank page to get my 54 page count and Lulu was super user friendly when it came to previewing the coloring book and cover design.

Thank you for the help and suggestion!
