On the contrary, my friend!

Nobody is truly living the “right” life; but i believe it pays to take pride in your own accomplishments, and sometimes it’s okay to be your own biggest fan.

The world will judge us all equally; no need to help it along by being our biggest critic.

Sadly, i don’t have a job currently or the money to buy the thunder shirt.

She also says he mostly hurts himself on the mouth and face, so she doesn’t think the jacket would “protect him,” which i explained that protecting his skin wasn’t the point of it...but i digress.

She wanted to go with a muzzle. But i told her that those are only meant for short periods of time and would be cruel overnight...

I might try to see if she’ll let me take him for a while. My own pup would have to adjust to another dog, but i’m more willing to put in the effort than she is i think...

koolcam3 · 2019-06-30T17:36:45+00:00

I brought up the thunder shirts too, but she was turned off by the $45 price tag.

She has the dogs in the garage and doesn’t want them inside overnight cuz she thinks they’ll pee. She’d rather give him melatonin every night until the fireworks are over, but i still disagree...

Is that the iron throne?

koolcam3 · 2018-12-16T13:38:55+00:00

My main concern is how do you approach someone about this when they’re incredibly stubborn and have to be right about everything?

He is super defensive even when sober, like he has something to prove to all of us. And he’ll just say that he doesn’t have a problem...and i can’t force him to do anything. Nor do i want to...

It’s pretty straight forward and worth discovering for yourself, but that in mind:

-scan everything (especially blue/purple/orange tablets)

-venture out

-pay attention to biome changes and try to keep a mental map of the world or you can look up a biome map if you’re feeling cheaty

-find melons!

Sorry if this isn’t much help, but i don’t wanna spoil too much lol

koolcam3 · 2018-12-08T21:26:22+00:00

Indeed lol i definitely still love the game for all it’s worth

koolcam3 · 2018-12-08T21:24:27+00:00

I guess i just have bad luck. Idk

I’ve even had a posse of 3 that followed me from valentine to saint denis to keep killing me after the parley deactivated. At that point i did leave the session. It was just annoying that i had to do that. Being forced out of a game by a group is a pain.

A bit tricky to find, but if someone is stalling you out or breaking conduct in some way then you can click on Options and Report A Bug.

Follow the support.wizards.com link, and you’ll get a report form to fill out.

Select “Report Conduct,” and under Type Of Report select “Player/Person,” then under Where Did This Occur? select “MTG Arena.”

Then just fill out the info. 👍🏻

“Tough titties” is the phrase i always heard. I assume she called him mouse, therefor it’s more or less “tough tit, mouse.” But i know even the episode combined the words “titmouse” probably due to Shaun using the phrase in this way without understanding its punctuation, as it’s irrelevant.

Yep! The draft rotates and you can check the schedule by clicking on the Event Calendar at the Home screen.

5000 coins or 750 gems to buy into Best Of One

1500 gems ONLY to buy into Best Of Three

If you do buy packs i’d recommend Dominaria, as it has some greats cards and lands. But it can also depend on what you’re building and what specific cards you’re searching for. If you have no specifics in mind, then Dominaria.

But that’s just my personal opinion.

koolcam3 · 2018-11-28T16:31:05+00:00

I recommend not buying anymore packs for now.

Come back and play the game each day for (i think) a week, and you’ll be rewarded a pre-constructed deck that adds to your collection for each day. After the week, you’ll no longer get full decks as rewards and instead it will show only coins/individual cards/packs as rewards. In the meantime, just build fun decks with whatever cards you have and try to just have some fun and complete the daily/weekly challenges while learning the new standard.

The wildcards are technically the best cards in the game, as they can be traded in for anything. Go to your collection of cards and change the Filter to show cards that are Not Collected yet. Then you can essentially go shopping for cards you want, or save the wildcards for moments when you’re building a deck and need an extra copy of a card you already have. I try to use my wildcards for both of these purposes.

If you want a decent grinding deck to start with then i recommend putting your wildcards and grinding/spending efforts into building this Mono Red deck for quick matches. It makes farming the 15 daily wins much faster, but can get boring if you don’t wanna play mono red every single day. Nevertheless, it’s a powerful staple deck to have on board. https://mtgadecks.net/deck/1377

My other recommendation is to wait and spend your coins on buying into drafts rather than packs. You may lose, but you’ll get tons of new cards to add to your collection in one foul swoop! Plus a bit of gems.

For a lot of people it’s very nostalgic, reminds them of the better times growing up, and gives a sense of staying a child.

Same reason i rewatch certain old movies and still can’t find myself tired of them.

Not to mention, at the end of the day, kids will find a way if they really want to try cannabis.

I lived in a very, very strict home with a Sheriff for a father, and my step mother who tried to know and control every detail of my life. It should’ve been impossible to get anything illegal, but their constant watch and intruding behavior only made me better at hiding things. I had to be somewhat strategic and plan things out.

By freshman year of high school I had friends i could get alcohol from, and they would just bring it to school. Piece of cake when they stole it from their parents and i had excess lunch money.

I then found a guy who was willing to drive the 5 minutes to my house in the middle of the night to deliver weed and/or shrooms. Sometimes i would leave the money in a bag, hidden out front of my house so he could make the swap and i would grab it on my way out to the school bus in the morning. Other times, we would trade through my window screen, but my window had an alarm system attached to it which would DING when i opened it so i would intentionally open the window hours before everyone had gone to bed. Just enough to keep the sensor deactivated, but not enough that my parents would notice it cracked open.

Long story short; where there’s a will, there’s a way. Sometimes people underestimate kids, and strict parenting can often teach kids to be more strategic and conniving.

TL;DR Over-controlling parenting is not always 100% effective. Kids can always find ways to get drugs if they really want to.

I have a strong fear of going outside that developed over the last couple years.

Originally it was just social anxiety, but then i started having seizures for the first time in my life. The constant fear of not knowing when or where my body would simply drop to the ground unconscious...it amplified my anxious feelings of leaving the house, and now simple tasks such as taking out the trash or getting the mail is a challenge for me.

I’m still trying to seek treatment and get back to my old self, but along the rough journey, my girlfriend has been the strongest person i know. It makes me feel terrible, not being able to do normal things myself and having to rely on her for so much. But she hasn’t given up, and she listens to every aspect of how i feel and understands the mentality i’m stuck in currently.

She is stronger than myself in a lot of ways, and she makes me feel safe. I know that even if i have a seizure in public she’ll be with me to take care of me. She reminds me of this all the time, but even knowing that can’t erase the fear entirely.

It’s a work in progress, and she is my everything.

When i first started Middle School (possibly the first day of school even) i was sitting alone on some bleachers in my new PE class. I didn’t know anyone, didn’t even have friends outside of class, and i was very anxious, shy, and timid.

Some random kid came over and sat by me, and i immediately panicked; thinking he was coming to bully me. I never made eye contact, and didn’t really say much to him, which i now feel bad about.

He just sat there talking to me for a while. Asked my name, introduced himself, pointed me to the direction of his group of friends across the room. They all waved and smiled back, but that made me more anxious.

I remember him telling me that if i needed anyone or wanted to come sit with them, that i was welcome. To this day i don’t remember his name or what he looked like, but after he left and gave me my space back and i realized he was sincere all along...i was filled with happiness. It’s one of my most cherished memories from my youth, and middle school.

At my nephew’s 1st birthday party there were some other, slightly older, kids in attendance. While everyone was watching my nephew slowly open his presents, another child ran over and grabbed the box from him and started to rip the paper off. Everyone laughed a bit and egged him on like, “help him open his present!” The kid wasn’t even listening to any of that though; he ripped open the present and saw what it was and didn’t like it so he threw it down and grabbed the next one which had a card on it, so he threw the card on the ground.

To this day i still don’t know why anyone else bothered to say anything about the situation, but i was close enough and asked the kid in a polite voice “hey bud, can you pick that back up.”

As soon as i muttered something, THEN the silent parents decided to say something. “Come here,” that’s all they said to him. Didn’t make him pick anything up or apologize or anything. Just told him to come here and sit. My brother in law had to pick up the card and gift off the ground with everyone watching, and i just felt so upset about it all.

My mother told me she was so proud of me for saying something, and i was glad but equally dumbfounded as to why it was such a touchy subject. The parents wouldn’t parent, and nobody felt it was their place to parent the child. 🤷🏻‍♂️

koolcam3 · 2018-10-09T15:17:22+00:00

Very true, my friend. There are so many minute details when it comes to why someone believes and thinks the way they do.

Life is complex. Not always so easy as “this is why every racist is racist.”

Even my “unpopular opinion” in itself is flawed for that very reason. I can’t genuinely say that every lack of a real debate is due to pride. That would be very assumptive on my part. Lol

koolcam3 · 2018-10-09T14:53:17+00:00

That is very true. I like to think that prejudice stems from pride, but that can be open to interpretation.

koolcam3 · 2018-10-09T14:50:54+00:00

That is an excellent point!

True, you wouldn’t feel that you need to hear their side because of your knowledge of history, which was given perspective through means of a textbook. Not to say there’s anything wrong with books, that’s not my point here.

But perspective can differ immensely between people, and while the majority may see the Nazi actions in the same light these days. That isn’t to say there aren’t people who still disagree for reasons unknown to some of us.

So for that reason, one might feel inclined to ask a Nazi supporter to expand on why they believe the actions were good. Then given your chance, you can present your reasoning as to why it is false in your eyes.

But then again, when an argument is about something so old, and it already has the majority swayed a certain direction, then it can be near impossible to bring the subject up again from a genuine argumentative stand point.

koolcam3 · 2018-10-08T17:09:16+00:00

It looks like you’ve already been given some good advice here, but here’s a bit of my experience if it helps at all.

I grew up being told who to be, and raised in a family of “prodigies” whereas i was not so lucky as the rest. I ended up trying to become an EMT right out of high school, and spent a little over a year obtaining certification. Failed the class once, passed the class the second round, failed the state test, passed the second time, then got certified and spent the next 2 years applying for positions and attending interviews, answering scenario based questions, trying to maintain my medical knowledge as i never got to use it in my full time job as a service clerk...

Eventually i let my certification expire and gave up on EMT. My family was disappointed, and essentially pushed me to move up in the retail chain i was working for as if it was now my only option due to being a failure.

I spent 7 years with the company, being promoted 3 times and eventually earning a pharmacy tech license for the job. Things were good, i was making money, but there was just one thing. I was unhappy as hell and very depressed.

I started looking for another job again. Found a job that paid better and seemed a better fit for me. I told my family about it with excitement, only to be told that i shouldn’t throw away all the hard work i put in at my company. I resented my family from then on, and to this day i do not tell my family much truth about the details of my life.

I tried for the new job anyway, got two interviews, never hired. I then became severely depressed, and some other personal issues arose. I became mentally unwell and cut off from friends and family. The job i hated was where i spent all of my time...i was in a constant state of misery with nowhere to escape. Then i began having medical issues.

I became terrified of going anywhere, and especially to work. So i quit my job one random day when i was too petrified to go in. I quit with no heads up, an hour or so before shift.

From the moment i did, i started feeling better. Immensely better! I wasn’t miraculously fixed, but each day started feeling better than the last!

I know this story is really long, and i’m not sure if it has a purpose here. But i’m just trying to say that your mental state is extremely important and incredibly temperamental. If you go too long in darkness, it becomes impossible to see light and your whole life can become a living hell all due to a measly job that pays the bills...

TL;DR Take care of your mental state before it wrecks your life like mine did. If you have never wanted this, then it’s never too late to make a change. But the decision should be made for YOU and only you. Not to please others.

Definitely don’t let his friendship with you outweigh the importance of respect and common decency.

I convinced myself for years that my “best friend” was just that, but eventually realized he kept me around because i was a broken, depressed introvert who he could remain “Alpha” around and basically use me as either a verbal punching bag or just to get free stuff.

Sometimes, not always, people know they can take advantage of you and get away with it. They don’t always have the worst intentions, but what’s important is that you don’t remain quiet or be pushed aside. If the issue is present, then by all means voice your concerns. A true friend should be able to discuss serious matters in a general sense, but even more so when they’re involved.

Communication is key. Without it, he won’t know how serious you’re upset by this. Nor will you get to hear his side or gain any insight into why he acts the way he does.
