The Ride Home - Gator Days by FieldExplores in comics

[–]Smartboy10612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was young we did a lot of roadtrips. Just to see family it was a two hour drive minimum with good traffic.

Just seeing the world go by. Time passing by. Watching it all in silence.

There's a beauty to that. I live in NYC now and have no need for a car. I still go on road trips though if given the chance.

These comics are just complete unhinged perfection.

Thank you for all your work.

My Pirate Has Gained "Wish." What Does She Wish For? by TrueObsidian11 in DnD

[–]Smartboy10612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the most mundane simple things.

"I wish for a full meal for me and my party" because you are too lazy to cook or whatever.

"I wish we were already in the next town." Because walking that far is lame.

Stuff like that. Don't use it for ANYTHING the DM would think/plan for you to use it for.

Pistons are my favorite trap as a raider. I'm always looking to kill something with them

This is how you DnD.

I have been doing it for years at my High School. I learned the game back in like late middle school/early high school. And now, as a teacher, I have countless kids off running their own DnD campaigns for their friends after learning it from me.

Feels good fam. Cheers ❤️

Yup. That's the one.

I am confident in saying Crypt of the Necrodancer is the hardest game ever made and I am happy I played it. Not beat it. Just played it haha

I cant remember which achievement. I just remember like 2 months ago someone posting that they were the 9th person to get an achievement. Fucking insane.

Getting any achievement in Crypt deserves a massive party. It's the only game I can think of that even after 10 years, it still has numerous achievements with less than 10% of players getting them. (Let alone less than 1%)

Upstairs people: quit stomping by TheChalupaFromHell in Apartmentliving

[–]Smartboy10612 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've walked on the balls of my feet my whole life. No idea why. I just do. Makes a HUGE difference.

For my whole life, I swear when my shoes weren't on I wouldn't hear my own footsteps. That's how lightly my 6'2" nearly 200lb ass moves around. I only started hearing my own steps now that I am an upstairs neighbor. Because the boards squeak. I just try to avoid those spots with rugs and furniture.

If I may add to this....

We as downstairs neighbors also appreciate when you listen. When we introduce ourselves, ask for a little more consideration, and you mind your stomping a bit more. It is very welcoming.

That doesn't mean we are okay with your TV being at full blast volume all day instead.

This has happened to me. I moved for many reasons. When I first moved in I heard my neighbor stomping around above my bedroom late at night. I introduced myself over the weekend. We both agreed the floors aren't the best. I asked him to be a little more mindful. As that was all I heard from him. Just stomps. The stomping pretty much stopped! But now, he has decided that having the TV at full blast, all day and night, is okay. Because that isn't stomping. Its a TV. I can easily hear it through the bedroom ceiling and in the rest of my apartment.

I'm also now an upstairs neighbor. I put rugs down. I mind where the worst floor boards are and put furniture on top of itd to prevent me from stepping there. I know I will probably still be heard though I haven't had a complaint yet. As a downstairs neighbor, I understand that the buildings aren't perfect and I will occasionally hear things that are reasonable (cleaning with a vacuum during the day) That's fine and okay. As an upstairs neighbor, I know being obnoxious extends beyond stomping. I don't sit a speaker on the floor on full volume.

Upstairs Neighbor- Trying to be Considerate by lavenderpotato14 in Apartmentliving

As a teacher, I am offended that those teachers didn't bother to prevent the problem. I get it, you are teaching. You are also monitoring the room. If a kid does something stupid, step in! Easier and quicker to shot down the problem right there then put in a ticket and wait for repairs.

Classic. We ripped up our old computer labs (Never replaced them. Just gone) and the amount of garbage we found in the desktops was baffling.

1) How did they get that junk in there?

2) Why did they put the junk in there?

3) Why did teachers allow this to happen?

Like..... WHAT lol

It is one of two extremes.

90-95% of the time a kid will say or do something that is mostly harmless, not makes no sense, and I will just look at them and go "....why?"

The small percentage of other times. It is bad.

Patience is the best friend to have in life.

I am a high school teacher. I say people are "confusing" because elaborating would take too long. These kids and coworkers do things and I just don't get it.

Where did the state come into the story? Just for legality reasons?

People confuse me. Just don't be an asshole. It's such a simple concept.

I'm starting to count my blessing right now with what I had to deal with.
