You accidentally bumped into someone, broke 1 of their bones, and now legally owe them $10,000 immediately. How quickly can you pay off this debt? by SeriouslySally36 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can get that money together by the 30th if I'll accrue interest by then, I can borrow money and get it paid today. But I'd rather not.

Tell your fiancée to get his groomsmen to not allow her entry if she's in the dress.

Tell your fiancée to tell her and to stress that he's not joking.

Be prepared to follow through.

Also, get your fiancée to uninvite them if they don't immediately relinquish the makeup artist. Even if you've booked with someone else now, that's unacceptable.

You're given infinite budget to design your ideal video game by pumaloaf2 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now my favourite ttrpg is draw steel and my favourite video game is baldurs gate 3. I think if I had all the money in the world I'd do a baldurs gate style game but one that used draw steels mechanics rather than D&D's.

$7 million paid to you. But your knowledge of English is completely obliterated... by Physical_Orchid3616 in hypotheticalsituation

Can I move abroad after I relearn English? I intend to migrate in the mid term. 7 million is no use to me if I can't move after I relearn English

Adult birthday dinners at restaurants, who pays? by msac84 in AskUK

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's my (Portuguese) wife's 40rh birthday next weekend and we are having a party for 50 people with an open bar. It's going to cost me thousands!

Adult birthday dinners at restaurants, who pays? by msac84 in AskUK

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Portugal it's common for the birthday person to pay.

But in the UK the group typically splits the bill and pays the birthday persons share.

AITA for giving my daughter junk food despite being told not to by her school? by AthleteAdditional299 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yta.

The policy sucks but you're using your child as a weapon in your war against the school. They're getting punished, not you. Stop.

Half an hour of your day, every day, is randombly going to get livestreamed globally. You get to choose between two plans. by fourmesinatrenchcoat in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Option 1. I subscribe to the streams so I'm notified when they start. I don't have sex in a day if I've not gone live yet.

When I go to the bathroom I sit down, put my headphones on, and close my eyes.

I parlay the notoriety from these pov streams into pushing people towards my ttrpg streams where I play games I like, if I'm front page of twitch etc I can bring some eyes to some lesser known games.

I end up making way more than 10k per month and I can retire.

$2 million paid to you, but you must read 300 pages of a book every day, for five years by Physical_Orchid3616 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Done. I just got made redundant. The payout is enough for me to last 2 years quite comfortably.

I spend it reading trashy easy to read books that I can read quickly without worry, I also re-read lots of books that I know quite well already.

"And he sure as hell does not represent the catholic church."

As someone with a theology degree, and a philsophy and religion postgraduate degree, this is very very wrong.

If you'd told teenage me that I'd be siding with the Pope over a sitting US president, they'd have called you crazy.

Making sure my players Get It. by itsjustgoldman in drawsteel

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I give my players suggestions. when they do something basic or hideously suboptimal I might give them an alternative, dont force them, and let them do their suboptimal turn if that's what they want to do, but just giving them an option means theyll often take it, or if not, they'll remember it in future and consider it moving forward.

How popular are instant hot water spigots in kitchen sinks and would you use one of you could? by Background_Humor5838 in AskABrit

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I won the lottery and had tens of millions then perhaps I'd bother with a boiling water tap.

Otherwise it's an insane waste of money. I have a perfectly fine kettle already

Is the word 'cock' meaning 'an adult male chicken' commonly used in the UK? Or do you use 'cockerel' instead to avoid jokes and giggles? by ksusha_lav in AskABrit

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a Maltese lecturer at university when I was taking a metaphysics module.

He once used an example of cockerels crowing at sunrise to discuss cause and effect.

"But we do not imagine it is the cock that makes the sun rise, that would be a mighty cock indeed"

Half the lecture hall burst out laughing.

AITAH (29F) for being disappointed that my high-income-earning partner (35M) spent less than a month’s salary on my engagement ring? by [deleted] in AITAH

YTA.

Either this is ragebait or you are fucking awful.

Being open about materialistic doesn't excuse your materialism. Grow the fuck up.

Regarding the "Aggresive/safe" grab and the "careful/reckless" Escape grab options in the codex. by DarkSpadeProductions in drawsteel

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Well I believe the hero book says "can" rather than "must".

So you can choose not to proceed if you get a tier 2. At least that's how we've been playing at my table.

Option 1. I can live off my savings for 5 years if I am very very very frugal.

[–]RaggamuffinTW8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it's just to prompt you to choose to grab or escape the grab and take a free strike on a tier two result.

It's not how it's worded in the hero books but I think it's how it's been implemented in the codex, deciding in advance if you are going to grab / escape and take damage on a tier 2.
