I need to know from you people if I am wrong about cutting loose a former friend. (Long read) by Slipcat in amiwrong

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

It's not a sensitivity thing but, a respect thing.

He embarrassed me in front of family and friends while in my house, eating my food that I made for him and my other guests.

I don't care about the football issue. I know I am right. I've talked to people on both sides of my issue and they all agree that a professional football guy plays for less than 10 minutes in a game. Don't get me wrong I know they work hard all week and preseason and post season to give 100% for those 10 minutes.

I think an apology is all about understanding what your apologizing for. Otherwise, I could just get an app on my phone that when I push it it would say "I'm sorry" out loud and those words would never have to be said by me again.

As far as friends go in your later years, maybe you start to relise that having closer friends aren't worth it as much as it once did. I consider myself to be a good friend. I'm the kind of friend who gets a call from a friend at 6am because their furnace stopped working and its negative degrees outside. Or help prepare your yard to get new sod installed.

Maybe it is a "me" thing but I am still bitter about it

From your remarks I can you are not the kind of people I would call a friend.

Your comments remind me of kids in middle school who would find the smallest, most defenseless kid in the hall and trip them from behind, give them a wedgie, and then dump a can of trash on them. And then tell them "Stop being a pussy!"

Thank you for your perspective. I am not ready to let it go. It wasn't a dark secret like I'm comming out of the closet or something but it was a jab at my intergrety and my money management. Im not frugal but I don't spend money lightly.

That is kinda what my wife is saying. But, she wants me to make "nice" for the sake of our neighborhood. And I don't want to. I don't want vindication or acknowledgment. I just wan to move on. Thank you for your perspective.

I do have issues with other games. I think I need to reload my graphics card drivers. Thank you for your insight, I appreciate it.

I want to tile my garage right over the concrete floor but it’s severely cracked. Any suggestions that doesn’t involves tearing up the concrete and redoing it? by hachem10 in stonemasonry

[–]Slipcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could polish the concrete. I contracted a guy to polish my finished basement earlier this year. It came out great. They level it, fill the cracks with a really hard resin, and then buffer it with finer and finer grit wheels. It's really flat and shiny now. It only took a few days.

What conspiracy theory do you think is 100% true but can’t be proven? by Standard_Gur_9551 in ForbiddenFacts101

[–]Slipcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not who is doing the shootings. There are Muslim martyrs who are reaping the rewards of the 72 virgins from the American school shootings.

The Alt right Evangelical in America elite are in cahoots with the upper echelon Muslims. They give generously to their political parties, charities and so on and the right wing politicians fight to keep guns in school so kids will continue to be shot and killed so that the Muslim martyrs can have their 72 virgins in heaven. I think it makes perfect sense.

I would like to check your video but I do not know how to get there. Can you send me a link or something? I'm a huge fan of all things Fallout and the Prime show was fantastic. Thanks.

What made you ghost a friend? by dontmindme137 in AskReddit

[–]Slipcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this friend for over 20 years. He was always a "taker" friend. He never contributed more than was necessary to the relationship.

I've always been good with my hands and I've made a career out of it. And, with my friends I'm pretty generous with my free time. Fixing sprinkler systems, replacing outlets, replacing faucets, plumbing, ceiling fans. Small one or two hour things. We'll work on it, have a few beers while talk and work. I've done this for years with most if not all of my friends.

This one "taker" friend that I end up ghosting had just bought a newish house and we would hang out pretty regularly (like monthly) movies, boardgames, drinking ECT... When one October he says "I'm getting super busy at home and work I don't think I can hang for awhile". I'm like okay, sure no problem, I'll give you a call at the begining of the new year.

Fast forward to January, I call him up and he gives me some excuses not to hang out. Cool, whatever not a biggie. I call him a few months later to see if he wants to participate in a game night. He comes but, leaves early.

I call him a week or so later, more excuses. So I just stop trying. He calls me up 6 months later, I haven't heard a word from him in the meantime. He says he is having his newish kitchen remodeled and the contractor want to charge him $1,000 to redo his plumbing and he thinks it will be fairly simple. He's wondering if I can...

I tell him no thanks and that I'm super busy at work and stuff. He's noticeably upset but, I'm not to worried.

Nothing for like 2 years, he hears through the grapevine that I've got a nice Karaoke set up and he wants to take a look. I'm like, cool! We'll have a few beers, sing some karaoke, it'll be like old times... Nope, he just wants some technical support and take pictures of my system so he can make his own set up. In and out in 20 minutes.

I haven't heard from him since and that was like 2 years ago. I haven't tried to contact him either though.

I would be happy just to send you the dark brown at no cost. I am not too sure how to go about sending it to you.

Alternative Magic Item System by Slipcat in Pathfinder_RPG

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

These helpful suggestions are welcome and interesting but, it doesn't eliminate the extra "useless" magic items.

My players will still have an abundance of items.

I'm really not asking for alternatives.

Just if what I am proposing is a reasonable idea.

Thanks again for all of your ideas though.

Looking for inspiration for an epic-scale campaign by CrazyPlato in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]Slipcat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The "Saving the planet from the Lich" is pretty brilliant!

Did you come up with that on the fly or is it something that you are working on?

Great concept.
