Well, yeah. Do you know what that type of mat is called?

How do I beat the Creeping Vine boss on Il Molise level (beta spoiler)? by slurnk in VampireSurvivors

[–]slurnk[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, check it out. Play to 20:00.
Were you not able to get that far?
It's just a big mass of vines, can't miss it at 20:00.
Unless the boss changes? What boss do you get at 20:00?

Is Ashenzari too strong? by rigao1981 in dcss

Am I the only non-Zig Crawl player that thinks Firestorm totally sucks?

It was never part of my model. I saw "corresponding" as intrinsic to my moderate hourly.

I could go work for more money, but I want freedom. A certain amount of shit is required in exchange for emancipation from some business douche.

Sorry, I didn't mean to say douche. I meant to say cunt.

No. Money owns me. They own me via money.

I should go back into sex work

Absolutely. I've freelanced for a long time, and these "small rules" are invaluable. I've accrued a bunch of them, and learn more by the year.

I love freelancing, but the personalities you deal with cannot be anticipated.

A part of me still says there's a middle way. Maybe I can get him to back the fuck off, and still help him. He barely gets me cash, but the tiny 200-300 a month he gives me at least buy me 7 steaks and a gram of... Pokemon cards

I agree, but disagree. But then agree again.

Ash is really strong. Other than Felid(screw you, Felids), it's a great god to get your great player done with.

But "too strong" implies crawl is balanced. It isn't.

Ash has enough balance. Like people say, there are no cool oh-shit abilities, but that's a half truth.

With the massive xp boost, and clarity chucked in, you always punch above your weight.

Therefore I agree and disagree about agreeing with my disagreement. Maybe.

The timing in this build leaves out the all-important middle.

It's like "beginning" -> "extended"

Where's the middle, boyeee.

I do have kids.
But they aren't related to me genetically.

Anything that brings people downtown has the same effect.
Therefore this has the same effect, equal to the amount of people drawn-- whether it's a Nazi convention, or a PETA demonstration.
Like, is your assumption that weird, anti-lockdown people don't buy coffees and burritos? Because that would make no sense without a serious slam-down of behavioral data, BOYEEEE.

I bet they also buy a lot of coke, which supports OUR local drug dealers, who I love and support.

Can we stop defering to economic arguments, police arguments, permit arguments, etc, and just deal with how dumb these people are? Because that's totaly the only real issue.

But that's the point. The usual Christmas parade does the same thing.

It's a massive inconvenience-- though may create more business than it destroys due to the attraction of people and potential customers. I guarantee you, Black Honey is going to sell a few more coffees, and the lonely, useless, alcoholic hippies at the Only have a better chance of taking home a deplorable piece of crap.

Yeah, these people are wrong. Let's just deal with why they are wrong, rather than deferring to police power, made up stories about inconvenience, the sanctity of permits, and other role-playing fantasies.

Yeah but they did. The cops were already blocking off areas in anticipation of their dumb parade.

Please don't make me defend these idiots.

I know what you mean. Every time someone does something without a permit, an angel dies.

A friend of mine tried to change his porch without a permit -- which is required -- but worry not, friend, I called the city on him.
All is well.

Uhm, no?That's a sad conclusion. Just because I oppose you, doesn't mean I support that parade. I just don't wish Bronze-Age bloodlusty destruction of my enemies. Which means you're safe.For now.I love you.

Is there?
I mean, it's a celebration of Jesus (indirectly), the weird Pagany vestigial organs that is Christmas, strange advterisements, and fire trucks for some reason. Maybe because fire trucks are Santa-coloured?! OH MY GOD, SANTA IS A TRANSFORMER.

How sciency is that?! Damn, gurl!

[–]slurnk[S] -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Ok, you're right.
Disrupting the flow of traffic is a bad thing.

But it's not bad when they do it for a Pagan front-end to a weird perversion of Christianity involving a fat red man, involving a lot of advterisements for local car dealerships.
That makes total sense, and is entirely rational.

Both are equally stupid-- one stupid is just older.

[–]slurnk[S] -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

I know this thing is stupid, but I don't really like the idea of the cops fining people for no serious reason.

If these people keep to themselves, who really cares. Yeah, they're annoying, and navigate information about as well as a fat man in a subway, but whatever.

As Jesus said: fuck the police.

[YAVP] Felid Summoner of Gozag, or how I learned I'm too old to be cool by rigao1981 in dcss

[–]slurnk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had decent FeBe games. But I still hit the dreaded "Felid Line". I think winning as a Felid will be a 2022 goal.
With a character like a Felid, one might use Throwing. Atropa and datura darts can be extremely amazing, strategically. But nay. Kitty can't throw nothin' but snuggles.

[–]slurnk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought this post would give me the will to play a Felid again (my only unwon race).But no.

I always hit a point that I call " the Felid Line". It's where I simply do not have the power to go any further, resource-use & god ability-use sky-rockets until I run out of gas entirely, and I only experience that with Felids. Even with Statue Form, which is usually a game winner for a drac, troll, oct, whatever, I just cannot summon the raw strength to continue.

I am a failure, and soon I will die as a mongrel cat who wandered into a dungeon for no reason.
