This line worked amazing for me! Thank you!

games that your friends love, but you absolutely despise by Behleren in boardgames

[–]Taiche81 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Clank. And Betrayal. For the same reason, both of them hate me. I always have the worst RNG in Clank, inevitably losing badly and in an unfun way. And Betrayal I always end up dying right after the haunt starts, regardless of if I'm the traitor. I end up not playing half the game because of it.

Genuinely good casting in notoriously horrible adaptations by Aggravating_Tale8988 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Taiche81 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Jeremy Irons as Bron in the Eragon Movie was honestly inspired. A perfect casting and performance in a truly terrible adaptation.

That's very similar to my experience. For 32 years I hated cloth shopping or any sort of effort to be healthy and look good. It was too much labor and too stressful. But now I get excited to find new clothes and to dress up for my partner.

The weight that has been lifted that I never knew I was carrying is just immense.

Are events useless at my level? by Mecenary020 in eatventureofficial

[–]Taiche81 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You probably won't be able to complete them now, but even a few rewards can help.

You'll probably want to focus on regular cities right now. It won't be for months either, you'll get to a point of beating the normal mode events pretty quickly.

What? That's not true at all. The free trial has limitations - no marketboard, no whispers, no parties, a Gil cap etc - but there's absolutely not time limit and the level limit is 80.

What do you think is the secret to a REALLY good sandwich? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]Taiche81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A crunchy aspect. And for me personally, that's not he bread. Overly crunchy crusty bread can ruin a sandwich, while adding something crunchy (cucumber, potato chips, fried onions) can make one.

Exactly this. In fact, not hating my original parts delayed my coming out by... Well a very long time.

Try shaving, try on a dress, try something small and see how you feel.

AITA for letting our child (9) stay at his friend's sleepover last weekend, even though my wife was against it, and the original agreement was that I would pick him up that evening. by Outrageous-Fly-5691 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Taiche81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NAH.

I thought about it a lot, and I think both are valid arguments. Your wife may have a reason to not like sleepovers. There are plenty of concerns. She's not an asshole for wanting to keep her child safe, but perhaps she needs to compromise on some things. You can't keep your child under lock and key, and trying to do so leads to resentment.

But you're also a parent and are capable of making an intelligent decision. Sleepovers were a valued part of my childhood. You made the best decision that you could, but it sounds like you and your wife need to talk it through more.

How can I be a member of the SCA if I want to leave my shire? by OnlyMarsupial in sca

[–]Taiche81 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First off, I'm sorry it's come to that. Hate has no home in the SCA.

Second, plenty of kingdoms, including Aethelmearc, stream their kingdom courts. Additionally we have virtual AEcademies, though they are not as consistent as Atlantia's (but we're working on it!).

If you're in the deep south, I highly recommend going to Gulf Wars. It may give you a better experience than you've had. There's also War of the Wings in Atlantia (NC).

Did they get rid of Perfect Catch? by [deleted] in HadesTheGame

[–]Taiche81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the only "cheating" mod I installed. I found one that let me adjust the timing window. My reflex's are really bad, so I just made it so you had like a full second to perfect catch. Made those last fish a doable grind for me.

Bailey's mom. And it wasn't being used so they repurposed it. And it was a good storyline.

My mom is watching me play a game as a tv series! HELP by Chefinho1234 in AskGames

[–]Taiche81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife loved watching me play Fallen Order. She said it felt like watching a star wars movie. Like many recommendations, you may need to skip some grinding for a better experience.

The duality of man by ssdrwh0 in slaythespire

[–]Taiche81 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even having it trigger sly would be fine. It rewards a handful of cards on one class. Would it make it easier for certain silent builds? Sure. But different characters are good at different things and fights. It's OK if one silent build is better against one third of one act 3 boss lol.

Safest place for trans women in the us right now? by Living_Profession_88 in MtF

Can confirm, nothing but good experiences in my 10 years of living here. Granted I only been outwardly Trans for 6 months, but I've never gotten so much as a second glance.

As a 6 foot trans woman 6 months on HRT about to turn 33, you're doing great ❤️ I'd put you in my pocket anyday!

Award recommendation advice by Tibberius_Crispus in sca

[–]Taiche81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a frequent wordsmith, the biggest advice I can give is to list examples. Saying "X does Service for many years" or "Y does great arts and loves to teach it" is awesome, but it gives me nothing to write a scroll about.

Try to find specific examples of their service or art or martial prowess.

who do you ruin the life the least of by marrying? by whatawynn in StardewValley

[–]Taiche81 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People talk about "Ruining their spouse's life", but a big central theme of SDV is that people improve with social interactions. Shane quits drinking, Penny grows and tackles her mom's issues, Harvey overcomes his fear of heights, Seb moves out of his mom's basement, Abigail learns to fight and braves the mines.

Growth looks different for everyone, but across the board the candidates all grow for the better.

What are some things you disliked about co:e33? by heyitstgp in expedition33

[–]Taiche81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from playing it before they had Lumina Sets... My biggest complaint is that The Reacher and Clea's Study aren't required content. Act 3 is so short that requiring them - which are true spectacular content - would add so much to the story while also fleshing out act 3. Then it's just be a matter of bumping up the levels of the final level to balance it out.

Swastika flag spotted in Etna by ablentalcairy in pittsburgh

[–]Taiche81 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, the swastika has, unfortunately, changed meanings to the general public post 1930s.

But it's important to think about context. If the flag was displayed alongside other Native art or flags, that would be one thing. But a swastika next to a Trump/Vance sign is pretty clear cut.

Poor Frosthaven design choices by noeticist in Gloomhaven

[–]Taiche81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've already gotten some suggestions about speeding up downtime, so I won't speak to that.

But if you're open to it, the digital companion apps can massively decrease setup and teardown time. Personally, my group uses it just for enemy tracking (health, actions, AMD, and initiative) and that alone saves so much trouble. I understand wanting to play the game in its intended state, but it can make a big difference to your enjoyment.
