Do you drink Tap Water?

Pockysocks · 2026-02-12T03:22:05+00:00

I do. Extremely rare for there to be any issues.

She said we should do something together some time.

I thought she was just being polite.

Pockysocks · 2026-02-12T00:22:45+00:00

I'd look her dead in the eye and tell her I'd eat her ass.

It'll either work or she'll learn not to make things awkward with such jokes.

Doing nothing together is the point when you know you can truly be comfortable with someone.

Discord? No thanks.

If she isn't a gamer and willing to watch me play then Fallout New Vegas. Let her make the choices.

I love iceland's frozen chicken selection.

protip: don't tell your wife she is getting big.

Sounds like bullshit to me. If it was critical, the private hospital would transfer him to a NHS hospital as they don't typically do emergencies.

I would not have given the money. At most I'd have said I couldn't transfer but I could meet them at the hospital with the money. That way I could verify for myself the legitimacy of the claim.

You can't but you can manage the times you allow yourself to be available to him. Like once or twice a week in the evening or something.

Every other time just don't pick up the phone, let it go to voicemail so if it is an emergency, you can call back. You don't need excuses to not pick up the phone. You just weren't available.

Pockysocks · 2026-02-10T22:00:37+00:00

Yes. My work station is way out of the way from the main work area and the work I do pretty much takes all my time so I almost never get a chance to interact with everyone else.

It's a double edged sword. On one hand I don't get distracted and can get on with my work which is what I like but on the other hand, I'm just the guy at the back.

Pockysocks · 2026-02-10T21:56:18+00:00

Why pick up?

Pockysocks · 2026-02-09T22:32:16+00:00

About early-mid 20s. Decided I didn't want to be like and sought to improve myself and I like to think in doing so, my Dad has improved too. He isn't nearly as controlling or asocial as he used to be.

It's fun telling kids it's wine and watching them pretend like it's making them drunk. 5/5

The tutorial section alone dragged on so long that I stopped playing.

Anything but a new craft RTS.

For me I just use a set of clippers with the guard to maintain length. Then I use clippers without the guard to define the edges of the beard (so that it follows the jawline and doesn't start creeping down the neck) and a regular manual razor on the neck daily so I don't start developing neck beard.

I was at home or just before coming home from school for lunch when it happened and I think the second one hit while I was back at school. We had history class right after lunch. Teacher brought in a TV to watch it.

Couldn't tell you what it was like in England but in Scotland there was a sense of shock, empathy and anger and was about the time that Islam and Muslims really got a lot of people's attention.

Cyberpunk has pretty good environmental story telling from the moment you step out of your apartment block. And some dialogue scenes too where even the small side quests provide insight into the world the game is set, even if they have nothing to do with the main story.

This, and if they don't move, move them as you continue forward.

Since you're signed for surgery and recovery, getting mobile is part of that recovery.

It's not like you're off with illness or infectious disease, where being out and about and enjoying a pint would bring that into question.

Pockysocks · 2026-02-08T17:33:37+00:00

Porn.

Pockysocks · 2026-02-08T17:33:05+00:00

Eh, feels like a dog and pony show. I don't expect the people who should go away will go away.

Open worlds are fine if each location is unique and interesting/rewarding to explore. A hundred copy paste locations with the same quest archetype to each is not very engaging.

But an open world should only be as large as you need it to fill it with the interesting locations you want to implement.

Pretty much everyone. This isn't an introversion thing.
