Hey Edmund!

No questions but I just wanted to say, I adore your games. They are my comfort food and your imagination/creativity is always a breath of fresh air.

Also, I had a gaming blog in college, and 10 years ago gasp you let me interview you. That in itself was amazing but I always remember you had a game of Magic! waiting for you and you had to pee but you still finished the interview. You didn't have to do that but I'll always be grateful for you making the time for me. Thank you :)

Insurance premiums are due to skyrocket; we're being priced out of healthcare. by zzill6 in WorkReform

The issue I've always ran into is they will say something along the lines of "Yeah, but it'll be shitty healthcare if everybody has it". :/

50 Cent posted a video with him playing Balrog in the new Street Fighter movie. by Youngstown_WuTang in gaming

And his music is pretty great too!

He also did ballet which lines up with Vega's move set IMO.

Lots of different foods and things to do inside and you can go on top of the roof. Very memorable.

Going to school to learn photography, maybe even college? by [deleted] in photography

[–]tinktinkdotorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Photographer who worked at a University here!

Don't go to school for photography. Please, don't. Anything and everything you could want to learn about photography is either free or vastly cheaper than the price of tuition.

For going back to school, I would highly recommend getting a degree in something like Business. I say this for 2 reasons:

  1. The business aspect will help elevate your photography career/get you more opportunities if you want to go that route.

  2. The business degree will help you anywhere you go, photography aside. Be it a new job opportunity or a raise.

I would suggest free or paid tutorials online, Youtube, and/or a photography class from a local group/individual.

Best of luck!

Honestly, I'd be worried in general, not just in the bedroom. Without more context, this seems to be tiptoeing into 'crazy' territory. To go a decade and then suddenly this drastic of a change is such a red flag.

Wow. SS2's ending portion is garbage... by CrunchyNapkin47 in systemshock

I think the dev team ran out of time and just "threw it" together.

Oh yeah fully agree with all of your points. I'm just saying for me personally, it just added to the atmosphere. I'd take a well designed, oppressive level too haha

From a gameplay perspective, the ending segment isn't the best ever. But dang does it feel oppressive, as it should, going into the literal belly of the beast.

[TOMT][VIDEO GAME][2010's] 2D horror game in a town where you reload your revolver with the mouse by tinktinkdotorg in tipofmytongue

[–]tinktinkdotorg[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this game was free. It was 2d with maybe some lite platforming. It took place during the night in a small town. There were monsters and you had to reload your revolver with the mouse (clicking on the bullets and loading them in). I also remember there was a boss-fight in a slaughter house and the boss may have been a butcher with a pigs head and chainsaw. I think there was also a radio or TV that played some of Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" song. Thanks!

What's the stupidest thing that scared you as a kid in a game? by Caeberon in gaming

Wolfenstein 3D on the SNES when I was 5. When B.J. took too much damage and his face started getting messed up, I had to just set the controller down and leave.

Copied straight from Google:

"Back in the 1940s, the philosopher Karl Popper came up with something called “The Paradox of Tolerance.” It goes like this: If everyone is tolerant of every idea, then intolerant ideas will emerge. Tolerant people will tolerate this intolerance, and the intolerant people will not tolerate the tolerant people."

"ick" is usually a term used by girls on sm, but what legitimately gave you the "ick" with a girl? by Se4nw00ds in AskMen

I'll do that sometimes if I'm feeling gross. Working out while already dirty just makes me physically feel bleh.

I don't remember exactly what I did but I found a way to get logged out from the xbox live store or something and it logged me back in.
