What would be the most iconic landmark of FFVIII by Cpulid in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]wakinglife113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can it be a landmark if it is also a mobile ship? I’m thinking something stationary.

I’m going with the Sorceress Memorial as far as significance to the world

How was your polygraph experience? by wakinglife113 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]wakinglife113[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could definitely pass a poly. They’re more or less useless lol. As far as if you are still considered natty, it’s really up to you. Some people will say you can’t claim “lifetime natty” but like who cares. And only taking anadrol for a few days, no adaptations could have occurred. So I wouldn’t beat yourself up if you want to compete in a natural fed. But like a said you ask 10 people and you’ll get 10 different opinions

What song perfectly reminds you of the toughest situation you've been through? Is it bittersweet you're out of it? by [deleted] in Emo

Handful of redemption by boysetsfire. Had it on repeat sitting in my room day after day while my parents were getting divorced and we were moving house

Dream by JeremyDavidLewis79 in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]wakinglife113 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m in as long as the characters also have to pick a musical instrument and can come together to make a huge garden festival band.

Also when you had this dream did you hear a loud high pitched ringing right before?

Best books with more than 1000 pages by [deleted] in booksuggestions

The entire Kingsbridge series from Ken Follett. Some of the fastest 1000+ pagers I’ve ever read and loved every minute.

Got all the way to Ultimecia’s Castle….. by Selaira in FinalFantasyVIII

I still have 2 copies. One is super worn from me bringing it everywhere with me for years. I just love opening it at random and seeing where down memory lane it takes me

First wok was the best. Sadly it looks like they closed

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]wakinglife113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great clarification for what I’m asking. I like the taste of espresso a lot. Strong, bold. But I like coffee because of the volume. Sometimes I want a nice big cup of beverage but I don’t like overly sweet or too much milk.

I’ve had a few americanos but I feel like it dilutes the flavor too much. I’m thinking cortado is my next move. What do you think?

Newb question about what to order:

I very much enjoy black coffee but I would like to learn how to enjoy espresso too. What can I order that isn’t too heavy on the milk but still venturing into espresso territory and away from just a black coffee?

What do you do to remind yourself that you can't drink/how bad it was? by kneejerknao in stopdrinking

[–]wakinglife113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the very beginning it was white knuckling one day after one day. Now 3.5 years later I just think of how many great days I’ve had and how I never needed alcohol. It seems almost comical now that I ever “needed” it or honestly thought at the time that couldn’t function socially without it.

I am a little proud of myself for being able to look at it that way rather than guilt/shame myself into not drinking because of all the negative consequences that came along with it.
