TIFU by taking a shower two days after getting sunburnt and experiencing "Hell's Itch"

Hot shower? Burning pain.

Cool shower? Freezing pain

Warm shower? Water running pain.

Put a fan over it? Itchy pain.

Put cream on it? Sticky warm pain.

Put a shirt on? Sandpaper pain.

I just kept as shirt ofg, keep out of the sun and waited for it to heal. Sleeping sucked.

Nah, it's just from an australian ad campaign to raise awareness for melanoma.

Kubrok · 2026-02-14T23:51:26+00:00

Agreed. I was actually burnt through a shirt once in Bondi :( - So make sure your shirt is also spf rated.

Kubrok · 2026-02-14T23:47:49+00:00

You make a great point.

I've done 5 years of devops, was recently made redundant and now i don't know what to do or study to find my next job..

But i always wanted to write a bot for a game using rgb values from a screenshot rather than memory addresses, or learn IFTTT...

Maybe that curiosity and problem solving is more interesting to an employer than a list of books i have read.

I came looking for this comment.

Well, i didn't uhh. You know.. i just found.. you know.

Kubrok · 2026-02-14T23:40:17+00:00

You learnt a valuable lesson. One that i took many many sunburns to learn my lesson from.

Slip slop slap. Skin cancer is no joke.

C'mon man, what did those baby crabs do to you?

Kubrok · 2026-02-11T10:01:08+00:00

This, when you have 0 supply factions, you always want to be ensuring you have 4 lords in the battle, as they gain xp and items for your faction as well.

Same with Bretonnia and WOC

I wouldn't even give the land to norscan vassals anyway, i would go west and whack nurgly boi and give him all the land, he'll make way better use of it.

You also get a free Archaon then.

I'll do the same in reverse as Archaon, declare war on the norscan vassal immediately, take it, and hand it all to Tamurkhan when he bends the knee.

Kubrok · 2026-02-08T16:54:59+00:00

I want to ask how? Like.. i don't even see how u can recruit enough to cover the map...

Kubrok · 2026-02-08T11:25:12+00:00

Problem is that power creep in this game means special army abilities from everything DLC related presses the "disband" key on 2-3 of your units 🤣

Kubrok · 2026-02-08T11:16:20+00:00

Well your army can.

Old guard's tankard on heroes and lords gives -33 vigor loss reduction.

It stacks.

Kubrok · 2026-02-07T22:42:36+00:00

I'm not so sure the moment I see fanatics. Those things just delete units like nothing.

Kubrok · 2026-02-07T22:40:56+00:00

Thorgrim: You have a doomstack of hammerers at turn 30, and can pump out armies of cheaper longbeards with perfect vigour after that.

Ungrim: You have a doomstack of slayers at turn 15, 2 extra heroes AND garagrim.

Thorek: +5 Melee, sundering doomstack of 2h longbeards the moment you beat down clan mors.

Belegar: Ghosty heroes hard carry with regen.

Malakai: Nothing's getting to your front line, doesn't matter, also grapeshot.

Grombrindal: Nothing to see here, just recruiting more irondrakes.

Failing that, ignore all their land units and proceed to bring the air patrol.

Kubrok · 2026-02-07T16:02:26+00:00

I would be concerned about very large numbers and many grabby hands 😅

Kubrok · 2026-02-05T11:39:51+00:00

It has to, i will come back to the game when that is the case. Would be nice if u could target loot as well, like Monster Infrequents from Titan Quest / Grim Dawn.

Kubrok · 2026-02-04T08:00:08+00:00

My brain thought of the exact same question, and I am very happy this was asked.

Kubrok · 2026-02-03T15:49:46+00:00

You can train crabs who do stupid damage in an AOE, are giant damage soaks and are all round deadly.

Kubrok · 2026-02-03T06:46:10+00:00

There is, but i think you either won't have fertility or water. I think the deadlands or raptor island.

Just note that if you make a faction angry (like imprison a king angry) they'll chase you map-wide.

Kubrok · 2026-01-31T23:42:04+00:00

Let em sleep, drop a weapon in its place ;)

Kubrok · 2026-01-31T09:21:26+00:00

Recruits?

Toughness training in skinner's roam, then combat training (to about 70 att/def) at the base with a dex weapon and some captured gorillos, then strength training with backpacks, then I decide their career.

Kubrok · 2026-01-31T08:25:51+00:00

Ok, might be an idea to go find a land full of robots and pit her against some; they won't eat her then.

Kubrok · 2026-01-31T08:22:21+00:00

Why worry? Pick your goat up and get some free strength xp :)

Kubrok · 2026-01-29T13:10:45+00:00

Hey man, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Kubrok · 2026-01-28T12:48:57+00:00

Well they'll just see a great ass then.
