My mom told me that Dad went to work to make money, and I actually expected to see money making machines when I visited him at the office.

I’m looking for a general market. Nothing that specific.

Retail

Doesn’t matter what they are eating. Their mouth is open and they are mouth breathing as they chew.

I prefer to have a printed copy over a digital one for the simple reason of bookmarks. If a game is rule-heavy, I will have multiple bookmarks in parts I need to reference often. And having the bookmarks visible to me in the book does make it easier to remember which one is which section.

My issue with all that tech is now I can’t find players who are willing to meet up in person.

I could have worded things better, as I wanted to know how tech hurt your hobby when it was supposed to make it better. My issue, we now have all these ways of connecting to people all over the place, there are more TTRPG groups that play online instead of in person. Used to be I could go into a game/hobby/comic shop and find people who are willing to start a game. I don’t do well with online only games with my ADHD.

Or that there are other RPG games outside of D&D and Pathfinder, games that are so much better.

I can’t stand when people are violently opposed to words because they sound bad somewhere else. Like “moist”. If you think I’m being lewd when talking about how much I liked the stupid cake, that’s on you and your perverted mind.

My school had a kid do that in class under the desk. One of the more hated teachers in the school caught him and asked what he was doing. His reply, “Nothing if you don’t want to join.”

I had a band teacher that I highly respected in high school. He took a band program that was the worst in the state, a complete shit show, and made it an award winning program. I always saw some of the students hanging out with him in his office at lunch, never thought about it my self or noticed that it was all girls. Fast forward a couple of years after I graduated, I’m working in a local popular sandwich shop down the road from the school. I always saw this one girl who would come in and get his lunch order. I asked her, and she said she was the student assistant for him. The school setup a program after I graduated to earn working experience as student assistants. It turns out the teacher was having an affair with this girl, who was only 17. The school district IT admin found explicit emails between them on the schools email system, and things went haywire. And since the law at the time in my state was 16 was the age of consent, it wasn’t illegal. But it was still a huge scandal, married teacher sleeping with his student. The school forced him to resign and the girls family told him to never contact her or come near them. Once she graduated, they got married and are still married to this day.

The Grand Tour novels from Ben Bova. All about mankinds spread into the solar system. There are some anachronisms here and there that would need to be ironed out, and plenty of continuity errors to fix, but overall a very exciting series of stories.

Cleaning is a skill. Learn to like it young and never have a messy home.

When I was young lad, my friends and I would play army with stick guns. Once I found the perfect one and I hid it in our army fort that really was just the space between the wood pile and the fence. I think his dad used it in the fireplace cause I never saw it again. If I was as smart as this guy, I would still be going after Rambo’s enemies today. I still miss that stick gun.
