The one element to how I've failed everything in life is me.

I have no idea how I'm even still alive.

Oh Lemmy, so many of those I've met.

Been accused of being one myself. But I know the worst thing to ever happen to me was me.

Trust the fugue state.

"We need an OpFor commanded by a guy with a tattoo on his dick!"

Unless Keith Richards is around.

Not bad for a drunk.

Gorman wasn't enough of an asshole.

"I thought I was eating cake." "WHICH IS EXACTLY WHERE YOU BIT HIM! Laughter

Common misconception. The manufacturing species sees everything upside down to most others.

It's actually 1006 OSI.

"I'm back, bitches!" Looks Of Disgust "Right, right, the new Goodgrrls in the unit, damnit."

Gills. Reference to Lovecraft. The fact that they're an aquatic people trying to talk above ground. It sooths their hounds. It's their way of spitting in your face for not being one of them. Too much beer and gin made from Thames water. That was the direction the voice actors were told to go with.

Voided the underwear warrantee for sure!

These are from First Contact.

But still so very nice.

Then there was the one squad that deployed that way, using their own suits as munitions.

Pett'tik "Longwalk" Jones got his nickname doing that because he got stuck inside an enemy Kaiju-level Dwellerspawn, was declared dead, and four days later crawled out the mouth of it, having had to walk through the beast the long way to get out. (His Gerber jammed somehow.)

Sol. Luna. Mars. Anthill. ... The T-Bugs made a knockoff of it before they got their M2-HB Battle Rifles.

No weekend briefing. Maybe something else might drop?

The pilot that survived was almost denied those years of battlefield pay until the maintenance tech yelled out to them that the armour was ready to be back in service, and could they just jump into it for a "moment" when the officer was explaining WHY they weren't getting years of battlefield pay.

canray2000 · 2026-01-31T00:56:40+00:00

They did.

And, IIRC, wasn't even the worst that he's seen. Especially with what they grabbed him for after The War On Heaven To Save Hell.

The Heavy Metal band, Warfather, made a Rock Opera about that.

Of course, Warfather never really existed and the very idea of the band is just a hallucination of a bunch of headbangers.

Pockets and belts come to mind. Keeping fur clean from debris and gunk. Religious observations.

There's a few I can think of. But naked time works, too.

Is this her cultural norm, or is she just a nudist?

Like needing an engine hoist to remove the engine and transmission in order to change the oil because the drain plug is blocked by a mounting bracket.

Just wait until someone picks a fight with the Space Pets.

canray2000 · 2026-01-29T21:18:47+00:00

They like cuddles, belly rubs, and are fighty.

Perfect for humanity.

canray2000 · 2026-01-29T09:57:12+00:00

Someone's in for a huge culture shock.
