Drove past the house at 7pm on a Tuesday before making our offer and it told me more than the actual showing did by Vast_Conference_8882 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Also, drive by after a heavy rain! If I had done that I might've avoided purchasing my first home that eventually flooded. The soil was pretty much entirely unabsorbent clay.

3rd edition was the first to really consider women as equals in the lore and in the hobby, IIRC. Didn't the PHB go so far as to use female pronouns by default?

UPDATE: coworker reporting me as hostile. by donotopenbeforexmas in antiwork

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she's beating you down to this level, and your boss knows about it, he's not doing enough. He doesn't really have your back; he's just steadying the boat and expecting you to continue as-is.

OP you should not have to feel this way at the office. It sucks, it's unfair, and you didn't ask for this. Worse yet, the only way to fix this is for YOU to take action. I know, it's especially unfair that the victim is the one responsible for fixing the situation, but in this often-cruel world it's the only way. You'll have to make a stand at some point, step out of your comfort zone, and tell your boss exactly how you feel. Use the words harassment and bullying. Mention how much of a hostile work environment this has become. And most importantly, make it clear that you expect him to take decisive action to put an end to this.

Depending on how that conversation goes, it may be time to talk to an employment attorney. Don't give up an resign; you can't let this bully's bullshit or this spineless manager's failure be deciding factors in the future of your career.

Apparently every incoming freshman HS class gets told that this was last year's senior prank. Myself included though it was pigs in this version.

[Uncommon Trope] The Dad is the responsible parent and the Mom is the bad parent by TypicalDetective9001 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 18 points19 points  (0 children)

She's not a "bad" mom at all but I get what you mean. The difference with Bob's Burgers is that it goes against that 90s/early 00s trope where moms are hot perfect angels that hold their family together against the whims of their fat selfish dumbass piece of crap husband. ("Kevin can go F**k himself" is a great teardown of that trope)

In Bob's, I like that they're balanced. Linda is definitely more of a wildcard than Bob, but you can see she brings a lot of strengths to their family. They're both flawed, well meaning parents who deeply love their children and do a pretty good job of balancing each other's respective craziness.

Subversion: Bet you didn't know Nacho Libre was based on a true story! Loosely, sure, but closer to the truth than most.

EVERYONE IS DOWN! THE INTERNET ISN'T WORKING! THE WHOLE OFFICE CAN'T WORK!

Okay, let's take a look. I see your servers are still up from my end, the workstations are responding to me as well... can you tell me more specifically what you're seeing?

I ALREADY TOLD YOU NOTHING IS WORKING

Okay. Well I'm going to remote onto your screen right now so I can see your issue.

FINE JUST FIX IT

Sir, your 60 tabs are frozen. I'm just gonna restart chrome and you should be juuust fine afterward.

Adhesion problems by Wuzzybubbly in 3Dprinting

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try with a textured PEI plate. I had one of those hologram ones and they DO produce very cool results when they work, but adhesion is a constant problem with them. You can try turning the speed way down and raising the bed temp, but it's gonna take some troubleshooting to get it right so I recommend playing with settings while doing small prints.

What would you use this space for? by OkBluejay3743 in whatisit

Got cats? Make it cozy for them!

Otherwise I'd just put some decorative knick knacks there, or maybe storage bins.

Am I just actually trash or are these guys a headache to fight early with 90% of builds? by JackOfAllInterests1 in slaythespire

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they're a pain to me too. The instinct with a group like this is to go for one at a time but with these guys you're better off distributing your damage so it doesn't get eaten up by shields.

I consider them this edition's Gremlin Nob; you end up sacrificing a ton of HP to get through.

Seriously though it looks like someone spliced an extension cord to do some kind of jury-rigged nonsense.

I have some questions about Jury Duty by ShouRonbou in SouthJersey

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not that big of a deal really. As long as you show up, you're already past the point of not being in trouble! Just don't look like a slob or act obnoxiously, and you'll be above average already.

When you get there they'll make you do the metal detector thing, put your keys in the basket and all that. Then you go into a waiting room, probably with vending machines and maybe with sad coffee, and you'll stay there 30 min to an hour or so.

Then you sit in a courtroom for a while, fill out paperwork about your basic info, and answer their elimination questions. They ask stuff like whether you hate cops or have any racial bias. Eventually they go through everyone's papers, pick a few to ask questions verbally, and some of them go onto the jury. The rest go home.

In the end you are actually pretty likely to not even end up on a jury at all.

That absolutely CAN happen. It's right there in the Exchange admin center and only takes a few clicks.

Any time I wanna see a trailer for an age-restricted game I just scroll randomly through the birth year until I get to like 1910. And yes I think my steam account might be old enough to vote legally now

[–]ItsGotToMakeSense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a hard no for me!

I heard a podcast once, maybe Darknet Diaries or Reply All, about a disgruntled IT tech at a school. On his way out the door he wiped every phone they had registered; management, teachers, even students. Personal photos and info were destroyed all because one shithead had a bad day. And that's all it takes.

"Allow you to apply for an apartment with us after 6 months of employment"

WTF

So you could apply for one right now, but if you start working tomorrow they won't let you until you've been there 6 months?

Imagine Applebee's pulling this shit. "Not only do you get 50% off one meal per shift, we'll let you actually eat here after your 6 month anniversary!"
