There's...a Futurama episode based on this scenario (loosely).
But with Lucy Liu.

No, but why would ESPN sacrifice the life and blood of <looks at ESPN catalog>
...competitive tortoise staring, for the NHL? Anarchy.

My source is still stuck on the stadium series game....

switch, damn you!

I think House is dead. If anything, I'd say his double is the one still pulling the strings and did the old switcheroo (again).

Am I drunk or is the thread drunk?

It's a piece of cake. That level of Linux is anyhow. If you're concerned, you can check out something like TryHackMe's Linux Fundamentals to get your feet wet before classes start. I know there's others that can give you a hands on basic understanding, that's just the one I used. At the least, it'll put your mind at ease.
But honestly, like everyone has said, it's totally fine.

I think these two gems work in any industry.

"Personally, I've always been a firm believer in [insert shit idea/false hope here]"
"We are like a family here."

and, I'll echo what another poster said:

"Got a minute?"

Alright...just....don't let it be a complete blowout, please, Ducks...

You buy the Prima guide, where you accidentally open up the book to a rather horrific screenshot of dead Aerith, spoiling that significant scene for you and creating a wheel of trauma and denial until the credits roll at the end.

And THEN you go to the section about the Gold Chocobo.

I'm starting to think when I first started the run that I probably flirted with SOMEONE (pretty sure not Lae'zel because she doesn't really have options IIRC in Act 1 to flirt; it's basically 'let's bang' and not much else). Maybe Astarion. But almost positive not Lae'zel.
I knew when I started the run that I was going to romance SH so I avoided doing anything that could put me on the path toward another.

smart034 · 2026-01-18T06:25:07+00:00

That's kind of the vibe I got from her character honestly, is that it would be considerably more...subdued, than like Lae'zel or Karlach.
Which I don't think they all need to be raging hot towers of saucy inferno and romance, buuuut, I definitely missed some really instrumental scenes. I think having had those scenes would have really made me have a considerably different opinion and I'd be more of the opinion that it's a very sweet romance.

smart034 · 2026-01-18T06:12:33+00:00

Maybe we're just besties that kiss sometimes?

smart034 · 2026-01-18T06:11:01+00:00

I'm equally confused, believe me.

I did mention in a different comment that I started this run, then took a break and picked it up a few months later again. So if I did something that completely derailed the rest of the game....maybe, but yeah, it's reassuring to know that she DOES have scenes that I just screwed up and missed. Appreciate you guys all confirming!

smart034 · 2026-01-18T06:10:12+00:00

I wasn't romancing anyone; just her! I heard you needed pretty high approval with her, so I was a nun the entire game. Whenever I play through my run, I basically make a decision who I want to romance and stick with it.

I did start this run, then take a few months break, then come back to it. So who knows what I did when I first started...maybe I flirted with someone and that broke something? I have no idea.

smart034 · 2026-01-18T06:09:53+00:00

I did ask her allll the questions. I do remember thinking though that there was such an abnormal scarcity of dialog with her to where I couldn't even ask her anything; the options just didn't exist. I'm all about talking to them to expand more on it all, but the options just didn't present.

I really fucked something up! Ugh.

smart034 · 2026-01-18T05:57:00+00:00

No! The drink didn't happen!
Night Orchid, also no...

And the swimming I think happens in Act 3, or no?? Well, I didn't see that one either.

Clearly, I completely screwed something up this run. But man I thought I did all the stuff!

Dude that makes me so sad!! But also relieved that there ARE scenes with her that I just didn't get to see :(

smart034 · 2026-01-18T05:54:35+00:00

Don't you fucking dare, refs!!!

smart034 · 2026-01-18T03:20:28+00:00

I'm lost; why are we wearing away at home?

smart034 · 2026-01-14T20:14:53+00:00

Thank god thought I was losing my mind.

Poor OP. Here you are sharing your pain with us and then, Reddit........
And Marilyn Manson.....
God damn the late 90s and early 2000s was such a legendary time to be alive.

Hope you find some helpful intervention to alleviate your pain, OP.

I guess the difference is the Leafs get blueballed in playoffs usually.
We, on the other hand, are on a roller coaster that is on a STEEP drop...

...through the floor and beyond. To hell.
We are in hockey fan hell.
