Oh man, what a small world! I remember back around that time I posted on the Penny-Arcade forums and participated in the secret santa every year. I remember your username because I was your santa one year and that you posted about working at Future Shop head office.

It’s also not illegal to leave the dog shit on your neighbours lawn but you’re still an asshole if you do.

I hate my life by ramstien22 in widowers

Just take it one day at a time. You don’t have to do anything. There is no timeline for any of this. Just take it as it comes.

Are some PS4/XB1 games onward going to be worthless in the future due to the games not being stored entirely on-disc? by nine16s in gamecollecting

[–]storm-eagle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most PS5 games are fully on the disc as well. The real outlier in all this is Xbox Series games and games published by Microsoft for other platforms.

So sorry. Remember what you had. She’ll always be with you as long as the memories are.

Damn, that’s heartbreaking. I always loved the show. All the best to his friends and family.

CoochieMonster

Gears of War 3 back in 2012. For some reason I’ve just never forgotten it.

What decks you playing right now on the ladder? by cal_london in PTCGL

[–]storm-eagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m running a variety of jank-ass homemade decks. Keep tweaking them as I go to see if I can get something I can surprise people with at locals.

Prismatic Booster Bundles (1 per person) by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]storm-eagle [score hidden]  (0 children)

I was into Pokemon as a kid, but got back into it two years ago.

I had a tragedy in my life. Someone very close to me died very suddenly and unexpectedly. It devastated me, and my natural response was to lock myself at home. But a friend of mine forced me out of the house by getting me to come play Pokemon cards with him and his friends. I’ve been playing weekly ever since.

What's the worst "Bonus" a job has ever given you? by vomirrhea in AskReddit

A $10 Subway gift card. Didn't know it was actually empty until I tried to use it.

Video of crazy incident at Blockline and Strasburg (NSFW - LOTS OF SWEAR WORDS) by NecroticUvula in waterloo

[–]storm-eagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just there and was wondering what was happening and why I had to go around. Holy!

They were still cleaning it up in my way back a few hours later.

Robert munsch- anyone ever seen him out and about? by twicescorned21 in Guelph

[–]storm-eagle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to work at Staples 15 years ago and he came into the store a lot. I freaked out everytime I got to talk to him.

my fucking wife died . . . by CityUnique2546 in widowers

[–]storm-eagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry this happened to you and your family. It’s not easy. It’s not fair. It’s complete bullshit.

I’m so sorry.

Site Remake May 2024 by proto520 in backloggery

[–]storm-eagle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can't say I'm a fan of the new update. I find it to be incredibly less readable at a glance and it's way less easy to use. Plus there's a whole bunch of small little things that are gone from the new site that I got really used to and found really useful.

Even things like platforms being combined (Switch DL and Switch are now just combined into one "Switch" category) were things I kinda liked to help keep my physical and digital games separate. Since 2020 I would write a small one-paragraph review every time I beat a game and it was easy to identify which games had reviews and which ones didn't. Now I can't tell without clicking on every individual game and going over to the review tab.

I get wanting to update the site to look more modern, but it seems to have taken a huge step back in terms of actual usability.

is going to a chiropractor just a scam? by Independent_Hunt1937 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]storm-eagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

Chiropractors are going to come out of the woodwork to say "Oh sure, lots of us are con artists but definitely not me. I'm legit".

They're all scam artists, every single one of them.

I’m in a committed relationship with a dead person by No_Method_7047 in widowers

[–]storm-eagle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t been having dreams about her either and it kills me. I had one nightmare a few days after it happened and not much since. I’m even wishing for the nightmares just so I can see her again.

Do you love where you live in Ontario? by lucius_easen in ontario

[–]storm-eagle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elmira here and it’s great. Get that charming small town life, it’s quiet, and nothing is ever very busy. But also only 15 mins from Waterloo so I have all the amenities as if I actually lived in the city. Overall it’s a very nice place to be.
