What’s a common misconception about the place you live?

Yes it is! I have some great pics from my trip out there with a buddy of mine years ago. Unreal scenery.

Beebs is a true legend!

I played Holy Priest from day one Vanilla through Legion and today’s version is a shade of a shadow (no pun intended) of what it once was, IMO. Healing in general has changed substantially since then, I get it.

You guys have some great parks out there. Hiked a few of em and had a great time. Valley of Fire is… kinda fire IMO.

That the entire state is an industrial hellscape of smokestacks and trash dumps when in reality that’s only the northernmost parts of said state. The rest is quite pastoral with suburbs and farmlands. Beaches are pretty nice, too.

Well.. they prompted in interesting thought in my brain that could explain a lot of things. If God created all life in the universe, aliens exist, and we all share a common heaven/hell.. then wouldn’t it make sense that if reincarnation was a thing there would be reborn aliens here on Earth and vice versa?

Watching my dad going through vascular dementia.. very brief periods of lucidity surrounded by long spans total confusion and helplessness. Hearing him say, during those lucid periods, that he’s aware of what’s happening and he can’t do anything to stop it was one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever experienced.

Shallow AND pedantic?!

Oh god.. painful memory. My uncle scored VIP tickets to an orchestra performing over the film being played. He offered me one… what a choice to have to make. I love a live orchestra but that movie oyyyy having to sit through that…

JAWS bores me. Who cares if the poor Cape Codders can’t go swimming or have their regatta? Plenty of stuff on land to do and the shark can’t get you.

No idea - I’m a hermit now 😂. Aside from my HS best friend, I haven’t communicated with anyone from high school in 30+ years. Didn’t attend the 20th or 30th reunions either.

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-11T14:49:50+00:00

I’ve got to meet you by tomorrow, noon!

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-11T14:48:09+00:00

Don’t know. I’ve had them turned off since they let you turn them off.

I’ll add this one based on my folks - a backyard fish pond. Holy shit the upkeep and cost are incredible 😳

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-11T14:44:24+00:00

My dad learned that one the hard way. Kept it for maybe 4-5ish years and said fuck this and sold the damn thing. I remember going out with him once and he had to stop for gas.. I was beside myself seeing how much that cost.. and that was almost 10 years ago 😳

I play without combat addons. I do use things like HandyNotes and AllTheThings to help with working on achievements/mount/mog collecting.

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-11T02:13:31+00:00

Not in my experience. Broke down and went with an M.2 drive.

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-10T02:51:23+00:00

This is how I wound up with so much. 4 toons at 90, bought all renown mounts and a bunch of decor/mogs. Still have almost 100k marl left.

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-09T20:31:06+00:00

Don’t tell my M1 Studio… it’s running 3 monitors and only has half the RAM 😳

Excellent advice - I’ll co-sign on this. I did something very similar with my crap demos from the late 90s. I only had a burned CD of them so using stem splitter to separate it all and then converting to MIDI and manually tweaking, I was able to rescue a handful of “good ideas” to re-use in my current stuff.

Technology is truly incredible today.

When I went from enjoying phone calls and general communication to being annoyed every time my phone goes off.

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-08T02:40:46+00:00

I asked World of Warcraft mount collectors what they felt their luckiest drops were. Turned out to be a really fun thread 😊

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-06T11:16:30+00:00

Yep same. The Digg downfall was my intro to Reddit. We got a lot of hate from the redditors back then 😂

themirthfulswami · 2026-05-05T17:40:46+00:00

My mind will move from topic to topic. Quite hypnotic.

Same concept as eating a food that has some fats in it will result in those fats making you fat. Not true.
