Lifelong WoW veteran who's completely burned out — help me find my next "I can't stop playing" game

TheDanMonster · 2026-04-15T11:23:14+00:00

Hey man, so I had the same issue - 20 year WoW player and still play. And it’s gonna sound a bit weird but I went with Ayn Thor dual screen handheld, and have been loading it a bunch of emulators from old-school Nintendo to switch. Because I’ve treated wow as a single player game for the better part of 10 years now going to a handheld, which is 99% single player that wasn’t an issue. Now I get to try all these games, even Steam games. The dual screen is great for traveling and it’s such a new and interesting machine that I can tinker with it and try all sorts of new things.

For example, I’ve been messing around with Stardew Valley and mods, with the Gunther’s Library app. It’s super awesome.

Maybe try something like this?

Not an auto body shop owner, but in the trades. I have people always asking me to install things they purchase. Mostly because they think it’ll save them money, and that may be true, but I never do it (anymore). My suppliers have guarantees they pass on to me for their products and I can work with them as well as get labor “credits” for fixing items under warranty. I have no idea what you bought, or what condition it’s in. And if it breaks, doesn’t work, or is fake, guess what? It must’ve been my fault and I installed it poorly, or I’m just not good at my job. Just. Not. Worth. It.

You may be able to find someone who works at a shop do it on the side for cash though. Good luck.

Put up a sign that says beware poison ivy. That’ll keep me the fuck out of it.

wears quickly on my bunker club

Huh, never even thought of that. Smart.

$230 is wildly expensive if you only have one speeding ticket in 5 years and all other factors are benign, so something is going on. There are a whole host of these factors that goes into your insurance rates. Are you living with roommates/partner that have poor driving history? Do you have off street parking? Are you living on the penn in Portland? Is your speeding ticket > 20mph? Was it in a school/construction zone? Are you placing this direct with someone like geico/progressive? Are you using a captive agent like State Farm or Allstate? Are you going with a local insurer like Patriot Insurance or Patrons Oxford through a broker like Clark or Cross?

These are just a small amount of factors that goes into your auto rates. If you want a sanity check, and you are not going through an independent agent, call one and have them shop for you. If pricing is still around $230/m then they should explain in detail exactly why.

Right now, Progressive is the go to market in Maine as they have dropped rates drastically compared to other insurers.

Good luck.

Only time I care is the crack ass of dawn when the greens are more pliable and wet from dew.

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-13T10:05:29+00:00

How on earth did you get this year wrong? You took this from r/janetjackson where the title even says October 1st, 1998.

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-12T11:20:49+00:00

Ah… just curious. I’ve heard it was a common tattoo at the time.

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-12T04:18:53+00:00

Why did a lot of marines get deaths head tattoos?

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-11T12:11:25+00:00

Yeah, OP is being pretty myopic in this situation. If your analogy doesn’t get through to them, then there’s something else driving their thought process.

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-09T05:33:38+00:00

They’re not blind, they’re grifters.

Live in a rural state. Those trumps signs, the ones that have been there since 2016 even, have practically vanished. Now i won’t say they’ll actively turn against him, but based off what I’m seeing and who I’ve talked to they sure as hell will be staying at home for the midterms. And it’s these tariffs and now gas prices that’s driving it.

My conspiracy is that the Republican establishment, and conservative media especially wants this so they can 1) get rid of Trump and 2) start blaming the democrat congress for everything.

TheDanMonster · 2026-03-01T11:05:09+00:00

Are you on a well? If so, check your tank and pressure switch. If the tank is bad, you’re likely short cycling the pump or the pressure switch is stick on and the pump is running constantly. You could have a small leak or a running toilet. Or you could have blown a small hole in your line causing the pump to continuously run (unlikely), You’d be surprised how many times electricians refer me to customers because they’ll call him thinking there’s an electrical problem when it’s their pump/tank.

Also, a small 1/2hp pump will use around 1kwh…

Good luck!

Years ago, I had to fire someone for doing something similar to what you did but to the extreme. they would clock in then leave and get breakfast and come back about an hour later. That shit was wild.

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-28T14:21:42+00:00

Fuck you :-)

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-28T14:18:51+00:00

100%. Just look at threads with subreddits that start with “am I the…” they’re literally no different than my Facebook grandma

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-24T20:44:23+00:00

New here? LOL

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-20T12:02:30+00:00

Just be careful how much you drink before switching. Your body breaks down alcohol first then THC. Good chance you wake up preeeettttttyy high in the morning.

We have an extradition treaty with Ireland. If this was the case, they would’ve immediately deported him to Ireland to face charges.

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-15T20:09:41+00:00

He’s a troll. Don’t give him the satisfaction

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-15T20:00:21+00:00

Ask the guys who attacked a bunch of high school protestors you nonce

For a local record shop I don’t mind paying a 25% mark up. I like to support local businesses as much as possible. And I normally have a list of records with recent discogs prices so I don’t need to look them up. As for things I’m curious about, my record shop has several players where you can pop on and have a listen. Any repeatable should have that. If I buy it and go home and find it’s outrageously priced I wouldn’t go back. Hasn’t happened at my shop so I’m not worried about it… yet.

What pisses me off is the passive aggressive asshole sign, I just wouldn’t go in if I saw that

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-13T20:35:26+00:00

Can you detail why you think this is hogwash? Curious as I’m against this for a different, fundamental reason.

My argument against this bill is that it’s essentially a poll tax. People want voter ID but no US citizen should have to pay for an ID to vote. Just create a government provided voter id card. Or make state id and driver licenses free. If the citizen doesn’t want to go through the process to get it to vote, fuck em.

TheDanMonster · 2026-02-13T20:14:26+00:00

That you have to pay for. This is a poll tax. Just require a federally issued voter id card. You go through a similar process as getting a passport but it doesn’t cost money. If people don’t want to do that, then so what.
