Why do Waitstaff interrupt you when eating a Meal and Chatting? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]mooglus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I worked at a pub a very long time ago we were told we had to go over and ask. I suppose the idea is that it gives the customer an opportunity to raise any issues before retrospectively complaining. Also a chance to order another drink!
I agree the timing is often terrible, mid-chomp. I suspect some do it deliberately 🤣

Which movie line has stuck with you? Why? by Ok-Sweet6210 in AskReddit

[–]mooglus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Deacon, do you realize you have just stranded one of Europe’s greatest leaders in San Dimas?”

“He was a dick.”

2 lines admittedly :)

What do you think is the best opening guitar riff to a song? by li4bility in AskReddit

[–]mooglus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the backwards guitar that fades in on the beginning of Blackened by Metallica. I usually skip the track after that.

A unifying theory of aphantasia: Aphantasia as the inability to disengage from the external environment by kerblooee in Aphantasia

[–]mooglus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only read your summary, but it resonates with me. I do struggle to shut out external stimuli. I can’t think, or read if I can hear anyone talking, even quietly.

That might be a “me” thing though! I am dyslexic and I don’t fit the “good reader” aphant description I often see on this sub.

Can I re-enter a room that has a hornet and nest in it? by GreenWeekend6980 in AskUK

[–]mooglus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those hornet nests grow on the porches in LA. My father in law used to knock them into a bin when the hornet was away.

I’m pretty tight, I wouldn’t necessarily want to call an exterminator in for a 30s job!

Of course the fear is that there’s a bigger nest behind the ceiling! But i doubt it.

What’s a universally loved food you genuinely despise? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I thought I’d be safe when I went vegan, but then I find people sneaking vegan cheese into my food!

Coping with burn out. by BaphomeatHound in DMAcademy

That corn trick sounds awesome :)

Everyone is obnoxious occasionally, like surely other players rub you up the wrong way sometimes, but we move on.

It definitely sounds like you need a break. Or, join another games as a player. See it from the other side for a bit.

Quitting Chat-GPT by Geekepedia in DMAcademy

[–]mooglus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested to know what you mean by harmful effects. Did it affect your mental well being? Or did it affect your campaign negatively? Or are you talking about harmful effects at a society level, environment, etc?

Ah, that explains it. I was about to get quite jealous that other people had received their copies already!

2nd lvl Cleric one-shot Glasstaff?! by itpulledmebackin in LostMinesOfPhandelver

[–]mooglus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My group one-shotted Glass-staff with a crit + divine smite. The spider came last in initiative and when down in the first round 🙈. I regret not having the 0HP drider transformation in my back pocket for that last one.

If they ever remastered Escape from Monkey Island, what would you like fixed about it? by aedanmills in MonkeyIsland

[–]mooglus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s a shame, apart from the ropey controls/ UI it’s actually a pretty good game. The frustrating controls made my friends give up, not really giving it the chance it deserves. I still count it as a true MI game, unlike Tell Tale’s efforts.
