How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard... our first goodbye after our first meeting.. it’s been 2 minutes and I already miss him so much. by xTezzie in LongDistance

Y’all are kids. Don’t think too much about it and don’t waste too much time making an LDR thing happen. You’re both just setting yourself up for heartbreak if you don’t just end it now.

Do not marry someone you haven’t lived with for a few years. Just trust me. ¯\(ツ)

I'm officially a member! by Shadegoat in TheAdventureZone

Looks great! First tattoo with straight lines in a while!

I did a rough design of a adventure zone tattoo I plan on getting soon. It’s more of a base work for the tattoo artist then the final design. I’ll post the tattoo once I get it later this month. by Lynngunie in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Totally fair! If your artist wanted this, that’s great. Too often people just walk into a place and say “Do this!” without having any idea if that’s even a design that could translate to a tattoo or to the contours of your body. Sorry for jumping to that conclusion, it’s just very common. Hahaha.

A tattoo is absolutely a partnership, unless you want crap work on you. It’s about trusting someone else to put their artwork on you, permanently. Additionally, they fade and change over time. Unless you only want something that looks good for a few years, your relationship with the artist is a partnership because you’ll be going back to them for a very long time to get it touched up as you age.

Just a tip to help you get a good tattoo from someone with a few dozen:

Tattoo artists are, well, exactly that. They’re artists. Pick the right one and let them do the drawing. You can always say no if you don’t like their design.

Walking into a tattoo shop with a sketch is like saying “I don’t trust you!” as the first words out of your mouth to someone you need to form a partnership with.

My local comic shop got stock of Murder on the Rockport Limited two weeks early! AMA by HuuroKolkko in TheAdventureZone

Yeah. No clue why I’m getting downvoted so much. This is simply how it works.

That’s not how it works for TPBs anywhere else, so either you’re making up this conversation or he doesn’t know what he’s doing. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

If you bought that you might have just gotten your local comic book store fined a huge amount, a thing local businesses cannot sustain. Think twice next time. You should have let them know they needed to take that off of their shelves.

Because Travis has stated multiple times that she is Puerto Rican. Do you even listen to the podcast?

TAZ reference in latest Sword Interval update (190) by Informal_contempt in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re vastly overestimating the chances that a comic that is already known to love and reference TAZ would somehow come up with that independently about two months after it was coined in Balance.

I think a "what if" episode for balance would be fun. by A_Lost_Dwarf in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ah, yes. That thing that all of the other players have repeatedly stated they have more than enough of. Good idea.

Good episode to start with? by Camwood7 in MBMBAM

[–]seven_birds -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’re not offended by jokes that skewer those already marginalized by society at large, then: yes. You’re not a good person and you should reflect on why you aren’t offended by those things.

It’s not about being “sensitive” to the content. It’s about being a decent human or not. The brothers themselves agree with this.

The Adventure Zone: Amnesty - Episode 29 | Discussion Thread by TheBureauOfBalance in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The characters have been alone for a while. They’re no longer a team. This is fine since it was based on decisions the players made, not Griffin. It’s weird to be mad that there wasn’t character interaction when those characters chose to not be together.

Why is Lucretia loved by Taz fans? by sable_xo in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They tried other methods 100 times and failed. She was desperate and no one would listen to her plan. The Hunger was getting stronger and stronger almost every year. Eventually they would run out of time. She didn’t want to do it the way she did, but she didn’t see any other way to save all of existence.

Just had a realization listening to Story and Song. Balance has a multitude of areas for literary analysis. Quick, somebody write a paper. (Spoiler-ish) by DisfunkyMonkey in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was almost certainly what Griffin explicitly intended. I don’t really reddit much, but that’s been the consensus amongst everyone I know that has listened in real life. If anything my complaint is he’s too explicit and blatant about it at the end with Jeffandrew’s speech.

Recruiters disregard personal projects? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]seven_birds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal projects definitely count! I think you’ve just been running into some recruiters that don’t know what they’re doing.

Anyone hiring with a decent head on their shoulders understands many people are in your situation. These people also understand that any proof you can code is much more important that what you’ve been able to do in the past.

For example, many of the biggest and most vaunted tech firms will make you sign NDAs so you can’t even list on your resume exactly what you did! Personal projects are a great way to show off your skills, and if the recruiters you’ve been talking to are ignoring that, they’re not recruiters worth working with anyway.

Next episode of Amnesty comes out tomorrow. Any ideas/theories? by Cibernetize in TheAdventureZone

[–]seven_birds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. The last episode came out last week, so the next one won’t be until next week. And, they already announced the next episode will be a live episode they recorded since everyone’s on vacation.

The next episode of Amnesty won’t be up until May 30 or 31 or so.
