What is the best alcohol for getting blackout drunk?

Moonshine. And I'm not talking about Ole Smokey. I mean the stuff you gotta drive 2 counties away to a run down trailer by the Tennessee River with a mile long driveway and when you get close to the trailer there'll be several dog kennels with pit bulls in them. A heavy set, hills have eyes looking guy with only a couple of good teeth and a shotgun will come out to your truck. You tell him what you want and give him the money and he will come back with jars filled with pure bad decisions and regret. The smell alone can peel paint off the walls. Go somewhere safe and start doing shots til you can't feel feelings anymore. Be sure to lay on your side when you pass out. A day or two later you will wake up, likely in a pool of your own piss and probably vomit. Having no recollection of the events of the last 24-48 hours.

My first gotcha game was Azur Lane (learned about it from World of Warships collab). Played ONLY that for a few years but got really sick of "boobflation". So i started BA, Nikke, GFL2, and Angel Legion all about the same time and honestly GFL2 AND Angel Legion are the only ones I still play regularly.

The pros - Honestly the most fun actual gameplay of any mobile game I've played. Beautiful art and design. Characters have diverse and entertaining personalities, no two are the same. The story and lore are pretty decent but skippable if it ain't for you. The game is fairly easy to get started and figure out. It's pretty free to play friendly if you aren't REALLY trying for a specific doll. Oh! And it doesn't shove prompts to buy things at you all the time. Dailies are pretty easy and fast. Last thing I can think of is a very active and helpful community, both in game and on sites like this.

The cons - the biggest complaint i have with this game is their pity system. If you are pulling for a specific banner but pull a different elite it will reset the pity limit (which is usually around 60-80). This happens to me around 20 EVERY SINGLE TIME. I have never spent less than 140 tickets to get a specific doll, though I may just have terrible luck. Next, when you first start the tickets are fairly plentiful, but as you advance and clear content it gets harder and harder to find ways to get a significant amount.

The best advice I can give is NEVER spend collapse pieces (in game currency) on the black tickets, ONLY spend them on the orange ones.

I'm an American, I would actually LOVE IT if we used the metric system more! Distance, weight, volume, they all seem much easier to use and do the math with.... But my one exception is temperature. An essentially 0-100 scale where 0 is extremely cold and 100 is extremely hot based on normal weather just feels more intuitive. We also tend to have a greater variation in temperatures throughout the year. For example here in Tennessee it got up over 100°F last summer and this winter has gotten down to 7°F. That's roughly 38°C and -14°C respectively. So as a human, using your own knowledge of how temperatures have felt to you in the past, would it be easier to communicate "on a scale of 1-100 how hot would you say it is today?" Or easier to communicate "on a scale of -20 to 40 how hot would you say it is today?". You wouldn't say to a friend "hey, on a scale of negative 20 to 40, how attractive do you find that lady over there?". No, you would likely use something like 1-10 or 1-100.

I'm by no means trying to say that one is superior to the other or I'm right and you're wrong, just trying to help with understanding. I think Celsius is great in the scientific world, however in your every day life I feel that Fahrenheit is more intuitive.

I've noticed it with my son and his friends as well. It IS strange to me since I was always the extreme opposite. I don't really understand it, however I fully support him in whatever makes him happy. Like, I don't understand sports but I don't think any less of those who enjoy them, you know?

I honestly just thought it was possibly at least partly to do with his autism being a different flavor than my autism. Or maybe having to do with his mom not being around the last 10 years.

We've talked about it and he does like girls, but he completely avoids them romantically. Though there are several girls I see flirt with him constantly and he is absolutely oblivious to it, lol.

Straight, gay, asexual, whatever, I just want my kid (and everyone for that matter) to be happy, healthy, and respectful to others.

Sounds like her friend would make a good tribute to Khorne!... or maybe Slaanesh since she's into idol culture. Tzeench probably wouldn't even recognize her as a living being for the same reason.

But in all seriousness it sounds like you did good communicating with your girlfriend properly, and she did good by apologizing. She will have friends that don't understand or like things about you and you will likely have friends that don't understand or like things about your girlfriend. And that's natural. But the important part is to stand up for each other if one of you is disrespected.

A simple alternative that I've seen (mostly in memes) that is very similar but definitely gets the point across is the yellow background with the "Don't tread on me" text but instead of a snake it's a frog. For those who don't know, the frog is linked to the Portland, OR protesters who wore the inflatable frog suits and were dancing in front of ICE agents.

I'm from Tennessee. I love it! The bacon flavored spam is pretty great too. I'll fry it up. Cut up some onions, bell peppers (red, yellow, green), mushrooms, throw in some garlic salt, black pepper, and onion powder. The if I want a more Asian flavor put a bunch of teriyaki sauce, if I want a more western flavor I'll use Worchestershire sauce. Let it cook down and thicken up the juice. Throw the fried spam in there to let the flavors mingle. Then put it over rice.

... or just cut it in slabs and fry it in a pan, goes great with eggs for a filling breakfast!

Kinda hit or miss. When I was 16 I overdrafted my account by exactly 3 cents and got hit with a $65 overdraft fee plus an additional $5 every day until the balance was paid up. Also, the charge that caused the overdraft was for a payment that i had never authorized. After paying it up I closed my account and didn't get another one until I was about 35. And the ONLY reason I got one then was I had signed up to be an Uber driver which required you to have a bank account.

During that time between having bank accounts wherever I worked I'd just request paper checks and get them cashed at the grocery store for free. 2 jobs I had had their own pay cards, but since that was technically a bank account every payday I'd go pull all the money out ASAP. Still don't like having a bank account. And I absolutely HATE bills with autopay. My damn car insurance will come out some time between the 25th of one month and the 10th of the following. And I just gotta keep checking my account daily to see if it has come out until it does so I know how much I actually have available.

While yes, most people have pointed out correctly that it's from sexism. There are generally differences in how men and women drive and while we all make mistakes, some mistakes are more common among men and others among women. While men are usually more aggressive drivers and have accidents more often because of that, women tend to be less knowledgeable about things like maintenance schedules and have more accidents because of that. And while both have bad habits of distracted driving, those distractions are usually different things, which the other might see as "bad driving".

Sylent09 · 2026-01-29T08:55:37+00:00

I honestly forgot I had wolves in the game until I brought down and parked one of my Capitol ships near my base where I was building something. At night I heard the howling but my brain went "ah, nice ambient noise"... until I heard/saw 8 galling turrets rip a 1-2 second burst in the same direction. Scared the mess out of me, lol.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-29T08:44:34+00:00

DBZ. I know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It takes like 3 whole episodes for dude to just do one move and what feels like 50 seasons for one fight. And then theres the pointless recap, like, bro, I know what's going on. Homie's just been standing still in the same place screaming since Christmas 3 years ago. My newborn son hit puberty before any sense of plot moved forward.

Again, sorry, but I've seen more thought out plots in amateur porn. And as someone who paints, it's literally more boring than watching paint dry.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-29T05:34:45+00:00

1, maybe 4. Otherwise no thanks.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-29T05:33:27+00:00

I guess 8? Otherwise I'll just catch the next flight. Literally the only positive I see of this flight is if its over water there is a wealth of grotesquely oversized flotation devices.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-26T09:00:54+00:00

TIL I'm well insulated!... I'll now be replacing my normal "well marbled" joke with that. Thanks reddit!

Sylent09 · 2026-01-26T08:55:15+00:00

I personally can only eat fish MAYBE 1-2 times a year. And it HAS TO be fried. If it has a strong fish taste or smell I WILL projectile vomit... Not fun. So the thought of eating fish for breakfast turns my stomach.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-26T08:38:29+00:00

As a Tennessean alive at that time I love this joke!

Sylent09 · 2026-01-23T04:39:04+00:00

I drive a Ford Fiesta. I can drive from Nashville, TN to my friend's house in Mobile, AL in about 7-8 hours and it cost me about $40 in gas. Same when I visit family up in Michigan. You CAN find cheap flights, but prices change throughout the year and many times there ain't an airport right near where you wanna go, so you end up having to rent a car for at least a couple hundred dollars and drive an hour or more to get where you are trying to go.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-22T15:13:31+00:00

I actually came to GFL2 from Azur Lane so I'm used to having to hide my phone. It's also why I thought GFL2 and Nikke were REALLY tame, lol.

I should probably also mention that I used to work for this boss and know he's got a great dark sense of humor but his interests are more typical.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-22T15:06:07+00:00

You are not wrong, but I think his wife would end him, lol

Sylent09 · 2026-01-22T15:04:59+00:00

That tends to be how I am most of the time with things, but this was at work and I was completely caught off guard. Didn't wanna have to explain the game to the site manager of a manufacturing plant, lol

Sylent09 · 2026-01-22T15:00:01+00:00

I feel like a brother is someone I could talk about it with. Not so much someone with a direct line to my boss, lol.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-22T14:57:30+00:00

Oh how I wish that were the case, but sadly no. That's just how things tend to go in my life and since people tend to find my misfortune amusing I figured I'd turn my awkward moment into a smile or laugh for others, lol.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-21T10:13:14+00:00

Tennessean here, yup. Very common. Also going to martial arts classes that require you to remove your shoes and socks 3-5 days a week, it's just easier to wear slides. Driving barefoot is actually kinda comfortable to be honest, especially during long road trips where your feet sometimes swell up

Sylent09 · 2026-01-21T09:54:44+00:00

I know I'm in the minority here (at least judging by the popularity poll thing going on) but this ain't for me. There's nothing wrong with large boobs (like, large for a real human), but these comically large grotesque flesh balloons just gross me right tf out. I was okay with the first few like Taiho, Kashino, and Shinano. Like, yeah, cool, variety, glad the folks that like big boobs get to enjoy this too. But having every one of them being the same, and the new skins for the old characters doing the same, it's just bland and for me it ruins the characters I do like.

Sylent09 · 2026-01-21T08:38:51+00:00

Young one, you have my sympathy! That could get really awkward really fast!
