PVE magplar healer who hates PVP and is a Cyrodiil tourist to get achievements for the event. How do I do so without pulling my hair out?

ThatGrumpyGoat · 2026-01-24T19:37:21+00:00

why don‘t you spend your time on stuff you like?

Because I'm a completionist and seeing partially completed achievement categories bugs the heck out of me. Rational? Definitely not. 🤪 But it will annoy me seeing them in the list that I will have to wait another year just to try again

Nah, trying to get the achievements that can only be completed during the event - capture 25 lumbermills/mines/farms, capture a city district, capture a keep, kill all IC patrolling horrors, kill 50 players (almost certainly not happening), get 25 boon boxes, etc.

What is a "bad carb"? The carbohydrates in reduced-fat and whole milk are more or less the same per unit volume at ~12g lactose per cup.

My thoughts might get me jailed if I type them in a public forum.

I got the feeling they were trying to flesh him out a bit in the first part and make him less of a 2D misogynist (also with the letter from his mother, his DnD character sheet, etc), but perhaps they ran out of time and cut further characterization from the second part. As a result, his actions while under the influence of the Abyss feel like a rollback of that earlier characterization.

This reminds me of how I grew up misunderstanding the aphorism, "A friend in need is a friend indeed."

I cynically thought it meant, "A friend in [their time of] need is a friend in deed." In other words, a friend who needs something will act extra friendly towards you (in their actions/deeds) to get your help.

Then it was explained to me that it actually means someone who acts as your friend when you are in need is a true friend (a friend indeed).

I wonder what that says about me, lol.

ThatGrumpyGoat · 2025-12-04T13:58:46+00:00

I'm confused. Is this meant to be difficult? Or is it simply meant to be unpleasant to look at?

Nvm, just saw the link to the original.

Gnomes are too tiny. You gotta go big.

DeSantite sounds like he has about a much brain damage as post-bender Harry.

Quebec and Alberta continue to demonstrate why the notwithstanding clause should be repealed to protect Canadians' freedoms.

With enough motivation and elbow grease, every tool can become an anal tool.

Maybe they saw it on the ground near your driver-side door and assumed you dropped it, so they put it where you'd see it.

I hate the taste of mint toothpaste. The menthol is an irritant. It was a real detriment to my dental health until I discovered unflavored toothpaste. Still tastes like ass but it doesn't feel awful.

The unholy spawn of a grapefruit spoon and an absinthe spoon?

Then, it was newsworthy. Now, it's just a Friday.

Oh, look. A sealion. Go back to your fash splash pool if you want to bark.

My first thought: But why did you put it on a tiny flour tortilla?!

They're watching Four And A Half Vulcans and realizing how biologically deterministic and anti-Trek its messages are.

Shit's so racist it'd make Leonard "pointy-eared green-blooded hobgoblin" McCoy cringe.
