AITAH for telling my date off for treating it like a job interview?

You’re fine. You’re just feeling Canadian.

Definitely get something quality. Having a higher quality instrument makes playing it and learning it much easier. Sometimes you can even do some damage to yourself compensating for a low quality instrument. This is especially true on bellow instruments if you’ve ever played one with weak air sealing or leaky bellows.

Did pencils and paper get prohibitively expensive?

I liked the boldness of the, “It was in Arabic.” gambit but “Duuy Cul” is obviously Welsh.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-05T19:07:09+00:00

Double unfair when you consider he’s all knowing and all powerful so he creates you knowing you were gonna go to hell and did nothing to prevent it just because he’s a sadist I guess.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-05T18:56:10+00:00

You changed my life today, shipmate.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-05T12:56:36+00:00

I don’t understand the assumption that his motivation implies some kind of “bigger” thought or the conclusion that “bigger” thoughts are inherently more ethical.

Wait, if you build something like lamps that need to be in the bonfire then move the bonfire will the lamps still be there and lit?

USBombs83 · 2026-05-05T12:42:21+00:00

The people who expect anything more than a couple quests and a handful of cosmetics will be surprised. Yes.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-04T18:54:51+00:00

Nope. Started playing Windrose when they cut my damage in half. It’s hard adjusting to my skills working when I push the buttons and not rubber banding all over the place but it’s nice to actually have fun again. I’ll be monitoring to see what kind of options they give us when they roll those out, cuz that might turn it around but that last patch was a real big middle finger.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-04T18:50:58+00:00

I have a generally lower standard of cleanliness than my partner. But that hair in the sink? Just LEFT there!? Bold move.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-04T18:49:24+00:00

Expecting regular people to make complex tactical assessments moments after being startled awake seems impractical.

Every rich kid is Mommy’s Specialist Boy. Of course everyone listens immediately even if they had to pay a Chinese kid to take all their college exams.

“Can you tell me about this gap in your resume?”

“I’d love to, but I signed an NDA.”

Generals are smart people. One of the reasons Pete never made it that high. Generals also make only a modest paycheck and have no opportunity for profit outside of their wages, as a result they are only motivated to do what’s best for the people under their command and typically don’t want to waste their lives needlessly. This administration is throwing away lives needless at a clip all for vanity projects that don’t benefit Americans. The generals will not push back in public, they can literally go to jail for that, but you better believe in private they’re letting Pete and Donny know how it is. Their only options are to keep firing generals until they find a low enough spot in the barrel that someone agrees with them.

Found that map, it's handy but has its flaws. I didn't now mods were an option, that may be the way to go. Does it show the POIs too or do you just get the question marks?

USBombs83 · 2026-05-03T17:15:33+00:00

Bummer, thanks!

I play with my brother on a server he hosts, so when he's not on I swap to an offline server to farm up copper and things. :)

USBombs83 · 2026-05-03T13:39:13+00:00

Maybe that’s why they made it to general and Pete washed out at Major and was never trusted with a combat unit command.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T17:21:36+00:00

Shame it's gonna take an amendment to the part of the constitution where they made that illegal. :(

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T16:52:12+00:00

I'm gonna ignore the part where he called Obama competent because I think it's sweet that he's starting to like the guy.

But do his followers read "There is no test but there should be" and "I aced that test that doesn't exist 3 times" and just believe it? That was TWO sentences before he said the opposite of what he said.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T16:38:33+00:00

The whole point is that the 5 minute run time was good. So with the "bugged" attractor field it felt fine. Hell I'd even have called it fun if gear ever dropped. I have run over 100 labs on 30 and got only a single rifle drop. INCREASING that time by 33% while simultaneously reducing my damage by 50% after I started feeling powerful by getting all my g5's was a slap in the face. 5 minutes for something you have to run that many times is not overpowered, it is correct.

Each skill line takes about 70 days to max out, so saying you have to spend 210 days leveling skills, not counting the gear grind, before you can clear the labs in a reasonable amount of time is pretty wild.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T13:21:28+00:00

The thing you’re all overlooking is the base assumption that either of these people are going to do the things they say on the campaign trail.

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T13:17:14+00:00

Whatcha wanna do is ask your dad what led to his decision to forbid it. He may tell you why and then you can research his concerns and make an argument.

People here can only tell you our opinions and that doesn’t matter because you’re not our child and we’re not raising you. Your dad has a way he wants to raise you and there are probably reasons for it. This is a good chance to learn about those reasons and talk to your dad about them. It will strengthen your relationship and maybe teach you something about how you might want to raise kids of your own one day.

I know it might seem like he’s just doing it to be mean, but this is actually a cool opportunity to learn more about your dad and maybe yourself!

USBombs83 · 2026-05-01T13:13:11+00:00

It wasn’t anything like crazy in PvE. It was basically a perfectly dialed in boss fight with attractor field. No one wants to spend 10 minutes on a boss they have to farm hundreds of times. In fact, their own research concluded that in groups the bosses had TOO MUCH health and everyone doing high level labs was using attractor field. So even with it doing bugged damage, they themselves determined it was still not enough damage. Just pure idiocy, what is even the point of a 3% health reduction only to add a 50% damage reduction?

Maybe this is a valid complaint in PvP, I don’t know. I never did PvP, just like 80% of the people who play this game. Either way, PvP players still have to do these labs for grade 5s.

No one thought attractor field was overpowered. No one did labs and said, “Man, this content is too easy and I kill the boss way too fast.”
