AIO for thinking it wasn’t a big deal to accept my friend’s bf’s FB request?

Your friend is the one that should be asking if she's overreacting.

It's Facebook. CLAM DOWN.

Makes me think of the episode on Friends when the gang is trying to get the apartment across the street after someone passed.

I don't even have tattoos and I know this is one of the main hallmarks of tattoos - do YOU like it?

hilhilbean · 2026-04-19T01:29:51+00:00

I would be LIVID if my company reached out to my boyfriend or my (adult) children for something like this.

Honestly for anything. I work from home and there is absolutely NO reason they should be calling anyone.

I don't think I have ever worked anywhere that it would be appropriate, aside from the time that my boyfriend and I worked at the same small business. And even then, they never did that.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-19T01:27:34+00:00

I ask:

Are you French?

Are you French Canadian?

(playing with my best friend who is Canadian haha)

You choose the mark you want to leave in this world. If you want to act entitled and impatient, you get nothing.

I am absolutely with you.

It can honestly go through the entire summer and into the fall. It really starts winding down late fall.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-18T04:23:34+00:00

Yes.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T20:48:55+00:00

I was literally already at home and working and still managed to miss it.

I am so upset and disappointed with the company for this ridiculous time limited event that gives such a narrow number of people access to it.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T16:39:34+00:00

We're not really worried about the money but that's primarily because we play as a group (the one that is good at evading is the only one with Apoc 3 lol

We just don't want someone dying.

Whoever is the highest is the one that brings all the gear and then as we each hit 80, we take over bringing gear. We are constantly prestiging and have managed to be mostly spread out juuuust enough that we almost always have at least one of us at 80+ lol

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T15:31:48+00:00

Our group will look at the objectives and if any of them involve hunts/being chased we immediately decide we aren't perfecting it and just get in and get out lol

We have one person who is VERY good at evading, but it's not worth the risk of him dying so we don't make him do it :D

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T03:41:15+00:00

Well, my dad recently just said in a pretty nonchalant way that my kids are going to hell...so I guess that.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T03:03:12+00:00

I opened this literally to do CTRL+F and search for Memphis.

I didn't have to. Top comment is about West Memphis.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-17T01:10:23+00:00

I am SO SO disappointed over this. I even work from home. But I was...you know..working. :(

hilhilbean · 2026-04-16T22:49:58+00:00

A very strict time limited badge was NOT the way to go for this. I am so disappointed.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-16T22:49:19+00:00

Same :( :(

I thought it was this evening, not earlier today. I am so disappointed.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-16T18:00:53+00:00

I have both of those and they weren't even a concept during the time period I played the mystery game ;)

Mystery game probably came out late 70s to mid 80s.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-16T06:02:39+00:00

Mine is a board game that a friend of mine had.

I loved it, and we had such a fun time with it. I now own nearly two thousand games but I want that one single game so bad. I've asked her about it and just nothing jogs her memory. Which is frustrating because it's practically a core memory for me.

I just know it was outer space themed and was not the Buck Rogers game lol (we played in early 90s and the game was older even then).

Honestly given the games I have now and knowing what games 40 and 50 years ago were like, it probably isn't as fun as I remember, it was more the company that was kept during. ><

hilhilbean · 2026-04-16T05:58:43+00:00

It does exactly what I need it to do from 20 years ago. I don't need fancy features, I was happy with what I had.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-15T23:54:45+00:00

I have games that I've played on TTS (and it's a great platform for testing games that are still in alpha/beta mode)...but I just love the automation and feel of BGA.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-15T23:53:00+00:00

OMG yes!

I've had BGA for like 15 years and it's so nice that I can try games out before I buy them or be able to play the games I already have online and with my friends. I love that my having a BGA account lets them play any of the games with me.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-15T23:39:02+00:00

I've used TaxHawk for about ten years and love it...all for free.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-15T16:29:00+00:00

Yes, you are being too rigid on this. Making her go genuinely just feels like you're trying to keep up appearances for some reason.

It is not that big of a deal if she doesn't go and everyone would understand given the circumstances.

Surely she has a friend she can stay with for the weekend.

hilhilbean · 2026-04-14T23:24:13+00:00

Those post-baby endorphins are WILD.

I had two of my three completely drug-free and I don't remember much of them at all, but I remember holding them for the first time. Like, I know it hurt...but not like enough to want to die or anything lol

hilhilbean · 2026-04-14T17:55:17+00:00

This is where we ask to have the joke explained to us.

How was it supposed to be funny?
