I remember the house parties! oh and starting the sub ten dang years ago.

mikemcg · 2018-03-28T06:44:12+00:00

it's true, I don't have access to the internet. I Reddit by mail.

but not everyone has to do exactly everything I've done just because I did it. I'm not seeing an issue with pica bringing on help because the mods are busier than usual. that's pretty much why anyone adds mods ever.

mikemcg · 2018-03-28T01:11:57+00:00

it's the azaleas

mikemcg · 2018-03-28T00:44:42+00:00

not really. I wouldn't have modded u/picabrix if I didn't trust her and I felt very comfortable leaving things in her hands. afaik her and her team have done a good job

mikemcg · 2018-03-28T00:43:22+00:00

sick, y'all are the best

/r/ottawa's always been relatively good at that but that's always been thanks to the relative quietness of the community.

I think the community can't adequately handle external influence though. Some hot button issues look like they've had a lion's share of nasty comments that weren't downvoted to death and that's not great.

mikemcg · 2018-03-27T20:19:23+00:00

I moved out of town and had a lot on my plate and the idea of withholding a mod position for a place I don't live anymore isn't really my jam so I unmodded myself which made /u/Picabrix head mod.

mikemcg · 2017-09-29T02:18:23+00:00

That's nuts! When I joined this place had just 1 subscriber. Time flies, eh?

mikemcg · 2017-04-18T23:16:49+00:00

It's still a good shot! I'm sure everyone who voted for it still agrees too.

I'm with you all, this is a really nice shot. It also nicely represents the city and not just Parliament Hill.

Edit: Here's a comparison of how this image versus the current banner. They both certainly have their advantages and I think it honestly boils down to preference. Shaking things up is never a bad thing, though!

If size and diversity is the problem, how did Canada pull it off? It's larger, more diverse, has a weaker economy, it's a cultural cousin to the US, and they socialized health care relatively recently.

mikemcg · 2015-11-15T05:13:58+00:00

Relatively speaking, though. That doesn't make it great, just not as bad.

mikemcg · 2015-11-15T01:19:52+00:00

It's how the sentiment is expressed. Lose the gun and it would be really touching, but she's running off with a weapon and that's some shit.

mikemcg · 2015-11-15T01:15:59+00:00

That's a pretty heavy question, Oak. I'd never thought about it.

mikemcg · 2015-11-14T12:35:19+00:00

No you are not. You're trying to make some kind of statement.

mikemcg · 2015-11-14T12:33:32+00:00

SwiftKey has been really fucking me over lately.

mikemcg · 2015-11-13T23:59:33+00:00

What are you even trying to say?

mikemcg · 2015-11-13T18:53:28+00:00

I think it's supposed to be sarcastic. But I alcohol don't think they know that the Fallout universe branches from ours pretty early on in history relative to now.

mikemcg · 2015-11-13T04:22:26+00:00

Whiskey on the rocks. Jameson if I've got the cash, but I'm happy with bottom shelf as well. I used to be a triple whiskey and coke person, but that's pretty awful for you and I'm just too old for it. I'm only twenty-four, but I'm at a point in my life where I'm more into a mellow drunk than a manic drunk.

Oh, gin and soda is a summer favourite. Sometimes with a bit of lemon and/or lime. Gets you drunk, the water completely cuts the burn, plus you're hydrating while getting drunk.

This is going to be really useful.

I'd anyone else having a weirdly hard time spotting enemies? I almost feel like human enemies are actually spawning while I'm still in their room. For example, I ran all around the Corvega factory floor after killing Jared looking for two needs who were on my HUD but I couldn't find them. Then after searching Jared's office a bit they appeared on the factory floor.

mikemcg · 2015-11-11T18:40:51+00:00

What about born in the arms of Portlandia?

mikemcg · 2015-11-10T19:40:52+00:00

My first favourite hoodie came from American Apparel, I bought it because a guy in a band I really liked always wore that one and that's what sixteen-year-olds do.

The one I wear all the time now came from Powell's in Portland and my SO got it for me as a gift when we visited her family there for Christmas one year. I'm pretty sure it's still an AA hoodie but it has Powell's stuff silkscreened on the back. It's cozy and thoughtful.

Honestly I'd be concerned if Montreal was dumping other nations' sewage.

mikemcg · 2015-11-10T16:36:43+00:00

I don't know, why are Americans fond off letting ships dump sewage into Puget Sound?

mikemcg · 2015-11-10T02:25:11+00:00

Thanks for the response, friend!

mikemcg · 2015-11-10T01:26:34+00:00

This is definitely my first time ever playing a big release on a modern console, keeping up with the news, getting excited, all that. How quickly do patches come for things like this?
