My Geometry teacher started calling me this and continued all through High school, and I still don't know why.

What about Keleven?

Reminds me of the same logic that Sovereign Citizens use. If you use the correct magic words with flowers and dinner, then you unlock access to the girlfriend.

That's why he wants Chad out of the dating pool! It's not about any sort of morality, he just doesn't think it's fair that Chad has 10 girls, and he can't find one (willing to take over where his mother left off.)

Oh for sure. I did a deep dive into Fox News to try to understand where they were coming from and it's all just blatant bullshit. And I honestly tried to find at least one valid argument that I probably wouldn't agree with.

Just gotta check every now and then.

You're not wrong.

That's fantastic advice. Every now and then you gotta check yourself. Those MAGA folks don't know they're brainwashed, and honestly, neither would any of us. Nobody is too smart for propaganda!

That's usually how these things play out.

Same thing happened to me when I tried watching Thundercats again. Oh boy.

There's a conference in Albuquerque next week. Never been that far West before, and it beats going to work!

I'm sure he would if he sold anything that could be pirated.

Sounds like I'm their type, but I don't get with phobes, even if they are a doctor.

My go to is "HI, EVERY BODY!"

 

Not at all what I expected. It's just a big metal frame covered with wood planks, mats, and canvas.

 

In the past 24 hours, I've gotten three calls from mortgage companies looking for my ex-wife. I was pretty sure that she wouldn't put my phone number on her applications, so I asked the last guy who called how he got my number. He explained that they watch EVERYBODY'S credit, and when a mortgage inquiry pops up on anyone's report, they call every number that's ever been associated with that person, just so they can try to snatch the business from the company that ran the inquiry.

One of the callers, after being told I was not my ex, proceeded to read off her birthday and ask if that's when I was born. "No, but thanks for sharing her private information without permission."

If anybody was thinking about using Rocket Mortgage, I would recommend that you don't. If they are this shady on cold calling, I wouldn't trust anything else they do.

 
 

He needs some extra hands to pick up a snowblower. We haven't really talked in years. It'll be nice to catch up.

Just a thought that crossed my mind today.

If I was to ask everyone that you've ever interacted with (IRL) what their general opinion of you is, what do you hope the most common answer would be?

Would you hope they consider you a successful person, physically attractive, smart, the best in your field, etc?

Personally, my answer is "A good, kind person. Friendly and helpful."

Just wondering what the rest of feel.

EDIT: Based on the first few responses, I'm thinking I should have clarified better.

I'm not talking about your legacy after you're dead, I just mean right here, right now. You have left an impression on people. That is inevitable. Surely there aren't that many people that don't give a fuck what anyone thinks, but I must admit, it is a valid answer. Maybe you are the person who doesn't give a fuck what anyone thinks. 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

The Pastor of Muppets is coming your way!

 

Kind of a shower thought, and maybe it's just how I run campaigns, but it feels like there's a lot of parallels between DMing and that guy who has a great idea for a book/movie but will never write a single page.

The DM comes up with "So what if there's this guy with this magic power, and the only way to beat him is through a very specific process." And then all the Players decide: who are the characters? What do they do? What do they say? How's it all work out?

 

My wife put in a pickup order at Sam's Club, so while we were up there, we got supper at the Chinese buffet!

 

It only took me two weekends to get through the whole thing, and now that it's over. Wow!

It resembles Slay the Spire, where you choose your path, and collect cards and powers, but the matches are more like puzzles. Your opponent creates scenarios and how you pay your cards determines if you move on or perish.

Now a big reason why I loved this game is the weird shit that happens, and weird shit isn't fun when you know it's coming, so that's all I'm going to say about that.

If you like puzzles or cards games or a story that makes you say WHAT THE FUCK?!? start downloading it now, it's free on Gamepass!
