I know. However, you said something that made my train of thought pull into a particular station. So you got a useless story because that’s what I do.

And I agree with everything you said.

It has decreased my dating pool by exactly 1. My ex started doing porn and I decided I couldn’t go back.

Best thing to ever happen to me. No drunk texts and no forgetting why we split up.

No hate on people who date others in porn. It’s just not for me.

I got on ICQ in 97 or 98 to keep up with friends from a MUD and mine was 7 digits. I haven’t logged into it in over a decade because when I went back to see if anyone from the old game was around none ever showed up online.

Came here to say this. I’ve worked on systems for a restaurant on the beach and it was corroded as hell. We had the wireless access points in cheap “weatherproof” boxes and they got corroded. We replaced them once a year or so because it was so bad.

It’s unique in it’s looks.

That’s what they said about me.

I’m glad that my nephew’s teacher last year sent out a message to allow family to donate to those parties. I’ve paid for a few.

I’m also sad that it has come to that.

I had to go look and I’m still not sure I understand, but it seems like it’s derogatory because whoever wrote the greentext is basically calling Indians “street shitters”.

I picked Elden Ring back up today (why no, it has nothing to do with the DLC). I’m still garbage.

Considering some of the sellers, they deserve each other. I have cash, don’t want to haggle, and can pick it up whenever it’s convenient. Three weeks later I’m either told it’s gone or asked what time I can be there.

I could have been there weeks ago. I already purchased one elsewhere. No need to get pissy when it’s been so long.

I see you’ve read my workout books and watched the videos.

Hey, leave Drunk Steve out of this. He did nothing wrong.

Roscoe, arrest them Duke boys!

The guy inside it drawing them is insanely fast at his job. That’s also why they were so bulky, to fit the guy who does the drawing.

I feel ya. I played one of the CoD games online once back in the mid 00s and stopped gaming entirely for more than a decade. It seriously made me just lose all the love I had for games. I came back for Cyberpunk and it turns out that was a good time to get back into gaming.

Or, in the case of one of my former classmates, her 26 year old.

Just tell him the only way to mine it is with windmill power. He’ll change his tune.

No, no, they’re right. I entered my motorcycle in a soapbox derby and won. Everyone agreed we should just light all the derby cars on fire and no soapbox derby cars should ever be made again.

I’m in my 40s and I barely made it through a bunch because before playing I hadn’t gamed in a decade, this was my first souls-like, and I’m honestly just not that good.

I never summoned. I only played online long enough to do the white mask quest. I was proud of what I did and very happy with my 100% achievements.

That being said, I wouldn’t begrudge someone turning the difficulty down if it were available. I see anything that allows more people to enjoy it as a win.

Let me start off by saying I do not disagree. Even without death it can cause nasty stomach pains (not ulcers, though, that myth was dispelled) and cause severe irritation on the way out. In addition, a LOT of folks have undiagnosed conditions. I’m just adding perspective. I see no issue with adding a warning to products seasoned with peppers in the 800k+ range the same way you’d add one for a roller coaster because it absolutely can kill you if you have a medical condition and I’m not so sure that people realize that.

For spicy food to kill an average healthy person, you’d have to consume a few pounds of super hot peppers to get that sweet infarction. Ghost peppers come in around 1,000,000 scoville units and the one chip challenge is seasoned with vipers and reapers which come in under 2m (there’s no official scoville rating that I could find on the chip itself). Some of the nastier sauces (Pure Evil and Plutonium No. 9) come in between 10m and 13m and those are eaten by heat aficionados and idiots looking to prove something with no more ill effects than shitting yourself inside out and pouring milk on your brown eye to relieve the burning.

The story about that kid is absolutely tragic. He was 14 with cardiomegaly and myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending coronary artery (enlarged heart and a congenital defect). I don’t know if he was previously diagnosed (that’s a whole discussion about our healthcare system in the US) but eating a chip like that at 14 with other conditions is a health decision. He didn’t know the risks because there was no health warning and possibly he didn’t know about his condition.

I would buy that.
