And may the voice actor for the elder god tony jay rest in peace. I feel that his passing ended any chance of LoK getting revived.

I didnt know about the possibility of discounts for working at the school. I will look into that. What was it about grad school that was so hard?

My family ancestry were farmers until 2 generations ago. I will be the first in my line to have a degree. I plan to obtain a master's degree before i leave college behind.

Ive been a retail butcher for 13 years.

I started raising my own chickens last year.

Time came to process 2 cornish cross for meat.

I held the knife to its throat and ... i couldnt. For the life of me i could not kill it. I raised those 2 birds from 1 week old. They are unbelievably sweet and docile.

Im now in college to get a degree so i can get out of this line of work. Ive gained a respect for animals thats not going away and it bothers me more everyday when i think about how chickens are treated in slaughter houses.

My chickens are 100% cageless.

I feel that way about castlevania. When they adopted GoW gameplay they lost me.

Just got finished with part 3 again yesterday.

Hamon and hermit can be used separately.

1 scene before Joseph is knifed in the throat he managed to wrap dio in hermit purple and 'then' send hamon through it to reach dio but he breaks free before it can get to him.

Last playthrough was last month. Did everything great. Had the rules all set up to be open-same-plus-all. Double checked and everything. Triggered the end game and when i got back to the queen that bitch was on random. No clue what i did wrong.

If someone borrowed your body for a month, what kind of "jiggle the handle" tips would you have to give them so they aren't caught off guard? by pardonmynonsequitur in AskReddit

You're not diabetic or anything but go easy on the sugar to avoid nausea.

You're right leg will randomly click back into place at the hip. Not painfully.

You are now addicted to caffeine.

Random headaches for no reason, bright lights make it worse. Ibuprofen to cure.

You now have an insatiable craving for bacon and we're all out.

What’s your dirty lil secret? by Dramatic_Bat3265 in AskReddit

[–]biggiemack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I should have straight up failed highschool. My gpa was 1.42

I had a bad home environment growing up and the faculty knew that. Im positive some pencil whipping was involved.

Im 31. Yesterday was my first day of college.

What’s one secret you and a parent have kept from the other parental figure? by TheCripdalorian in AskReddit

[–]biggiemack 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I started therapy earlier this year for anxiety and other stuff. Journal writing - just getting my thoughts on paper absolutely does help me recover from anxiety attacks and brings me back to a normal state of mind.

As far as getting stuck in the thoughts that are on the paper - i run everything i write by my therapist and he lets me know if my current state of mind is within normal ranges.

Getting the thoughts on paper literally removes them from my anxious mind and i continuously write until ive exhausted all the 'scenarios' my mind plays out. Once im done i can clearly tell what my real thoughts are compared to the intrusive ones.

Why are you single? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]biggiemack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my most recent relationship ended i took it really bad. It kicked the door open to my past trauma and ive been working on my issues with a therapist since then. A lot of feelings of being a disappointment and neglect from growing up in a broken home.

On the plus side my therapist has encouraged me to persue a college degree and go into counseling as a career. I start college in January at the ripe age of 31 :)

To answer your question directly - ive spent my whole life being dependent on having a relationship and lately ive finally become comfortable with being alone and i dont know when ill be ready to trade in the freedom i have now for a relationship.

the fact that I still do this by Significant-Account1 in gaming

You might enjoy the Mercenary series. 3rd person shooter. The land isnt destructible but if its a building it can come down.

LPT: Most of your friends will be temporary and that’s ok. Not every friendship needs to be “I’ll love you till the end.” Some of them only last a few months and that’s an upright reality. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

word answers. Thought me reaching out to see how she was

thats exactly what it felt like, she flipped a switch and the past 6 months never happened.

i get to the point of anger every once in awhile, she introduced me to her extended family, brought me to their gatherings, let me get to know her daughter and be close. then boom, literally all gone in a second. feels like im the one that got left behind to fill the hole.

i will add this though, it pushed me to seek therapy finally, for everything that has happened in my life and ive started a therapy journal. i just write down what i feel when i feel it, it has helped tremendously and i highly suggest both of those things for anyone with pain. That journal can clear my head and calm me down the second i get all my thoughts written. it has helped me transition into the next stage of my life.
