@Windows i7 where was this? Not saying you are lying but I've never once heard long hair personifying homosexuality. I've heard the opposite with women with short haircuts being assumed lesbians but growing up in the bible belt the reason my grandmother hated when I started growing my hair out was always the bible verse that states "does not nature itself teach that for a man to wear long hair is a disgrace to him."

not any stigma over homosexual connotations. I'm just curious, pretty well traveled but have never heard of the two being equated like that.

@Philosophus Vagus it was in Corpus Christi Texas around 2001 or so. Homophobic slurs were often directed at guys with long hair in my experience.

Is this a riddle?

Then I'd say I suck at this game.

Life is the real game... with real consequences.

I tried implementing that in a previous game, it would affect how party members would react and interact with the main character.

I'm working on both a friendship system and a "sanity" system for my own game, and the sanity will be a gauge like HP.

I of course presented this idea somewhat in jest, but I actually do like a good bit of humor in games, if it doesn't change up the tone too much.

Good. Gosh. You think those are bad, you should see what goes on in private messages sometime. (Thankfully havent had that issue on this site yet)

@shockra I dont think its got anything to do with being an idiot... just a lack of understanding how to act. Confidence, not arrogance. Respect, not worship. etc etc.

Lol look fellas, being a guy doesn't make you an awkward creep. Being awkward and creepy does. Also, in general, self-effacement almost always indicates neck-beardery

@FleshToDust wouldn't it suck if they were the people who turned out to be right? Like what if that's really how it all ends? That last cow fart that pushes us over the edge. 'The fart heard around the world'....

*Imagines earth with massive cloud of smelly cow farts hovering*
It had to end some way but... Not like this... No... Not like this...

I'm not stupid, luckily. I don't deny the existence of space... I deny the existence of Ctrl-Alt-Delete!

@Mrs_Allykat I've read that, a lot of developers say Defender + Malwarebytes is a nice safe combo. I'm too cheap to pay for it, though

Spybot is a good alternative for helping keep spyware off of your computer too. It's generally free. But, oh my lord, it slows up boot time. I have a copy, but I keep it on a pendrive, so I only update/use it every now and then.

I don't even use an antivirus but adblock works for the most part. Lot of viruses comes from ads.

What's going on? A war's going on.

I don't find him scary, physically. He knows not to try anything like that with me, the problem is having a guy like that be in charge of whether you're employed and when you get paid.

Well, find out what he hates and avoid doing that as much as possible. Just don't suck up because I can almost guarantee you that will make things worse.

I don't suck up to anyone. His biggest problem with me is that he is unable to get a rise out of me. He has NPD and is very unstable. I grew up with one parent that had NPD and another that was addicted to every drug you can think of. I don't fold, but being under the power of unstable people brings back crappy memories

The latter.

Correct! I love using the jackhammer. I hate getting it caught every literal inch of the way under a wire net that didn't need to be there (the subfloor is high tensile concrete that's in excellent shape)

As a tech enthusiast, I definitely see what you mean.

OMG wait, you're right lol dayum, so it wasn't JUST a bad joke. Poryg, I was trying to respond to your status about having burned 100-some chicken legs. I think. I don't know anymore.

Well, either way I have no idea how many burgers that is as it wasn't something I could choose as a measurement.

One day.

I had lots of things in my PC that I deleted.

You should have a Plan B in order to prevent pregnancy.

What sucks is now that it's installed, and it's four years younger than my own pc's version....I kinda want to delete mine and install 2019. Congratulations life, you win.

No. Bagels not soft enough.

Nope.

@OmnislashXX I'm thinking about making it into a game. Also go go Status Rangers

Not sure I get it, but that'd surely be a good RPG.

I have three days off, finally. I'll use them for resting.

Nothing wrong with that. After this contract I'm thinking about taking a month off. (Never gonna happen)

Awesome!

She's doing exactly the same job at her new place too. But her overall health, mood, and ability to react well to unexpected things improved drastically in only a week. Her old job wasn't worth it, even though it seemed great.

I can ask for time off, we're general contractors so there's no set time to work and set time off. I care about the two guys above me, though, I'd be in a bad place right now without them. I only take the time off that they do, and then only when it's both off them

That's not a good idea. It's good to be grateful, don't get me wrong, but you need to balance your needs better. You are the only one in charge of your own life, so make sure that you at least treat yourself as equal to those around you. It only takes 70 hrs a week before working overtime produces exactly the same amount of work as 40, and even then it's not sustainable. Balance will be more beneficial to them.

The ghost who hangs out with me is offended.

*Ghost dislike this status*

youre talkin mad crap for someone within haunting distance.
