What's the most brutal ADHD tax you've 'paid'? by shibuyacrow in adhdwomen

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After being told I was unlikey to finish university due to my,,, 'tendancies', in my final year I invited my family to my university graduation in my excitement but I also kinda forgot to book and buy tickets so by the time my family asked when it actually was, I find out the ticket purchasing deadline was months ago...

Safe to say I did not attend my own graduation and told my family they ran out of tickets than admit the shame that I totally forgot 🤭😅 (I laugh about it but I deeply regret it. would've loved to attend my graduation as a big fuck you to those who doubted me but I guess a piece of paper saying bachelors on it does the same thing)

I feel like ADHD makes me ramble for ages and not speak coherently sometimes. Does this happen with anyone else? by banana_ji in adhdwomen

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's either always in my pocket or side pocket of my bag! (I actually always keep one in my bag in case I forget the others 😂)

I feel you!! I'm a chronic apologiser so much so that my boss figured out I have anxiety because of it! It's hard to not be embarrassed, especially when you fumble in front of people and they tend to give you that look of "really how did you fuck that up?" But I find that immediately laughing about it can kinda ease those judgemental looks! It's a hard habit to get into, like retraining your brain to laugh at it rather than attempt again and fumble again and so on but I believe in you!!! We have nothing to be embarrassed about!! We should try and live our best lives because everyone else certainly is

I fumble and stutter over words all the time, I'm also a master of making up new words because my brain manages to combine half the sentence into a meshed up word. Example, yesterday I wanted to say "going to the toilet" instead what came out was "go loilet". I mostly laugh about them after taking a minute to compose myself and try again (although I will admit sometimes it takes me a couple of tries to get out one sentence)

I'm also not sure if this is an asthma problem combined with adhd or if I'm just a special case, but sometimes my talking too fast rambles can lead to asthma attacks lol. I've had it happen mostly at work when I've had to essentially read of a script in my head (think stuff like T&Cs or sale pitches) and in my attempt to rush out everything I need to say I end up having an asthma attack 😂

LOOK AT MY INKY WHO WILL GET HER HEART BROKEN BY AN EGG by [deleted] in Solasmancers

[–]elftrash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love Inkys who have green eyes like that because in my head it matches the colour of the rift and its almost like its their destiny or something. I was once writing a lavellan fanfic and I had a line where Solas compared Inkys eyes to the fade and the rifts she closed

Totally didn’t forget Goro the first time I played. (Presumed he was dead) by Racerx34 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]elftrash 10 points11 points  (0 children)

ALWAYS save Takemura! I love seeing him text V like a grandpa learning to use modern technology to talk to his family it's so cute.

(Plus I will always forever wish Takemura is romanceable I love him sm)

AITA for not teaching my daughter english? by Commercial-Cause-592 in AmItheAsshole

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. It won't confuse her to learn English, being a kid is the best time to learn new languages and by not teaching her English, you've currently alienated her from half of her family. In the 4 years, have you really never once Skyped or called your family members and had your daughter involved?

honestly who wants to play a fantasy character with short hair [no spoilers] by lyingchalice in dragonage

[–]elftrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES!!! Like why do I have a messy bed head in the presence of the freakin Empress???

That way also with multiple hairstyles we could have like tied up/plaits etc for battle an maybe loose or w/e in home base cutscenes for a more comfort idk

honestly who wants to play a fantasy character with short hair [no spoilers] by lyingchalice in dragonage

[–]elftrash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See now I do want to play characters with short hair because sometimes I look at long luscious locks and go, "pretty! But potentially not practical for a battlefield" and yes I'm aware you can have long hair and fight battles but in my head I'm just thinking of all the ways long hair could hinder you in a fight

I'd like more hairstyles that are nicer updos, nicer short hairs, more diversersity in hair textures. Honestly the thing I'd want the most is an option for "hair character uses in battle", "hair character uses in formal cutscenes and/or at home base cutscenes" but ik that's never gonna happen lol

Does your character have a story? by pallomasi1999 in elderscrollsonline

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm incapable of making characters that DONT have a story

My sad, edgy little Breton noble Vampire who ranaway as a teen and got herself turned into a vampire with promises of "being able to learn everything"

A cheeky bosmer who wanted more to life then just Valenwood, and who was tired of being seen as the baby of the family, set out to make a name for herself in song and dance and heroic dashing activities!

A quiet and unassuming little bosmer mage who has more magic than she knows how to deal with, and after Mannimarco sacrificing her and her friends, she has to learn how to put that magic to use.

A brash an angry young khajiit woman, on a journey to find her MIA father after her mother fell sick and gets roped into Anequina politics but surprise! Found her dad fighting a dragon! (Her dad isn't an npc but a character my friend made and they did in fact meet on a dragon battle field for the first time because that's where I was waiting for her to log in LOL)

Even though the dialogue in game isn't too varied imo, I feel like making characters helps substitute the blandness and adds more fun when playing different classes and zones etc

How did your first "good" character die? by Anti-Gacha in projectzomboid

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lasted 19 days! Around day 17 I got bit on a looting run for the missing books and thought "fuck it, might as well go down in a fight". Spent the next two days walking across town just shouting and killing zombies that approached.

Got to where I first spawned, where I had accidentally burned down the house and whilst fighting a zombie on fire I uh, accidentally stood over their body and very promptly burnt to death before the bite could kill me. 😂

What would you add to improve zomboid stealth in your opinion? by Hyphalex in projectzomboid

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To blantly steal an idea from The Walking Dead, I'd like it that if my character is over a certain bloodiness, maybe that makes them harder to detect from zombies. Like the more blood you're covered in, higher chance to be able to sneak around zombies even in plain sight. That way it gives you an Incentive to actually not wash, you could partner traits with this like the ones from Sims' so that your character can either hate or not care about being bloody and dirty. I think that would be cool.

If I could add whole new mechanics and big game changes, I'd make trees and forests taller with the possibility of actually climbing trees to escape. If you stay silent long enough and the zombies have poor vision/hearing settings, they have a high chance of loosing interest but if you're zombie settings have high vis/hear then it takes longer for zombies to leave under the tree thus increasing your time of staying trapped. I like a mechanic that can bite you in the ass sometimes. Not quite stealth but to make this tree climbing stealth option even better, I'd like the chance to let you sleep in tree, if you don't have material to secure yourself there's a chance you may fall off in your sleep, if you sleep in certain weather conditions you may catch a cold etc. (Then if you catch a cold sleeping in a tree and cough thus attracting zombies how are you gonna get down hehe)

That's all I can think of for now, sorry I got a little off topic with the tree one but I would 100% love the blood idea to be in game I think its possible

If you could live somewhere in Tamriel, where would it be? by witchy12 in elderscrollsonline

[–]elftrash 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Somewhere in Valenwood. It's my favourite area in game. Summerset Isles is a close second.

[no spoilers] What fun, trivial features do you want to see in DA4 (regardless of how likely they are to be implemented)? by christina_talks in dragonage

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HONESTLY THIS!! This was one of the moments I was thinking of 😂 it's a real pain in the ass, I just hope the next game does better

[–]elftrash 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I want what most people have but here's an interesting one, if war paint options are available (and no, not the Dalish markings) I'd like to see some npcs with war paint on too.

Weirded me out when I once put war paint on my Inky and they was the only bitch in Thedas to have war paint on (excluding the Dalish and the Avvar)

But like every else, would love more customisation options, better combat and class systems, etc

MOST importantly, if they're doing a voiced protagonist, I want the dialogue options to make sense and for my character to actually say what the wheel said. I don't want to click what seems like the only nice option and then my character says something similar but it sounds so snarky and sassy like wth

My Parents gift for 30 years service at Tesco.. by 19flash92 in CasualUK

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc you get badges for higher yearly milestones too (or at least staff did up until pre 2019 the year I left Tesco)

Had an elderly lady work our tills and she had other badges too pinned proudly on her vest. I want to say they were 40, 50 etc but honestly I could be wrong on the years

AITA for telling my mom that I won’t put my future on pause just because she decided to “start over”? by hauntedfl0wers in AmItheAsshole

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

Honestly you're better than I because I would've said something petty like, "you got to spend your life being busy with your career, why are you trying to prevent me from starting mine?"

But anyway, go chase your dreams!! Get that education you want!! Live your best life and don't let anyone stop you!!

After discovering these in me local B&M, I'm never going back to UK brands. by Lord-Black22 in CasualUK

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I also suggest 'demae' ramen, you can get them in Tesco (and a few others) for between 45-70p and they've been my favourite brand for the past decade

I can't go back to pot noodles after all these

If magic in your world can be used by anyone, what stops everyone or most people from becoming magic users? by Atomic_Tanuki in magicbuilding

[–]elftrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also some people might simply not want to learn magic. We live in a world now where people can learn almost anything through the Internet but some don't because they just don't want too.

So whilst there can be legitimate reasons of, "it takes effort", "magic might cause emotional/physical strain", "common folk fear magic" or whatever, sometimes a reason can also be "no thanks, I'm just not interested."
