The Stranger

It must've taken you by surprise if it hasn't occurred in session before. I assume you were feeling really stressed at the time?
Therapists are experienced with similar situations though, so they don't view it, nor judge it the way you feel about it. If anything, it may help her understand some things better. And give you more appropriate advice.1/2

If by next time you see her, you still feel shame/anxiety over it you can bring those feelings up.

The last couple of sessions I had were emotional bulldozers.After the last one I was very low for some days but later I had a breakthrough + realized the session had been beneficial for bringing some things to the surface.

So it may feel uncomfortable now, but maybe something positive will come out of your experience.

Confronting my demons, the various aspects of my life, the gnarled roots off my unstable mind, has to be done. I don't want to this to be my life till the day I die. I knew it wasn't going to be easy, but I also didn't quite understand just how difficult it was going to be.

They're stinky meanie nicknames

What's wrong with The Vicky Bitsy Spider, or Jesstaurant? xD

Everything xD

I do exactly the same. xD I hate keeping stuff that I don't use. I've given so much away, and things I can't give away end up in the trash. I used to give stuff away to charity shops, but it has become a chore to give them stuff nowadays, so I just don't bother.

Yay!

Yay good for you! Tidiness really helps me work more, and focus easily. Enjoy it!

But I'm full of dust collectors that I can't get rid of. Sigh. So dusting is a weekly chore^^.

So many good games! X_X

A new Metro? I loved the first one, second was alright...why you keep telling me about new games I'll probably like? How am I to save money when you keep doing this.

@Philosophus Vagus LOL! I'm sorry. xD This one looks like it's going to be more open, and have more ways to play\options than previous Metro games. So long as it still has a story, and doesn't fill larger areas with filler trash, I'll be happy.

@shadefoundry There needs to be a word to describe having bad luck with technology. I was gonna say technophobia, but that would be the fear of tech. I think dis means bad\ill in Latin, so perhaps you can use technodis, or distechno. Nah, neither of those sound right. xD

I don't have a smartphone. When I see the infected Smombies I think "we didn't lose one of the smart ones".
It's a consolation.

Next smartphone feature will be a bip, or light, that tells you you're about to bang into something.

@slimmmeiske2 Don't worry, you're not - I don't have one either ^^

There's an anime about that. A team of astronauts that "cleans up" the space junk around earth because it is super dangerous to space travel and shuttle launches.

All we need now is a car on bricks floating around the world for our trashy image to be complete.

Don't forget the graffiti! "Bobby Luke and Sue Ellen 4Ever" plastered on the remnants of the international space station! Ha!

Me too! I remember havin hard time wiping my butt after doing business back then...

@Kuro DCupu Probably explains all of the arse problems I had later on in life. xD

lololol this convo is going places...

Well, the article says it doesn't play much like their previous games. It's all about stances and what not. I wonder how the stealth and jumping stuff will factor in?

Honestly, the life cycle of the current generation of consoles means that the best games possible are due to be popping up now. So, I have high expectations of all of the titles presented.

That's pretty cool and hopefully won't be as frustrating as Dark Souls.

$25 for 7GB? Does that mean downloading a 70GB game like perhaps 2077 will cost you $250 on top of the $60 for the game?

@FleshToDust Yep. It's one of the reasons why I only buy games which have physical releases. It's also why I'm not a fan of always online junk (as well as knowing that one day the game wont be playable), and enormous patches. I stopped playing Kingdom Come because every new patch the devs released was 15GB or more, so i had to pay £50 each time they released a new one.

@The Stranger Those prices are insane.
I'm an offline gamer myself. Not a fan at all of always online games, especially if they're single player. If they're single player they shouldn't need to be online anyways.

@shadefoundry See, you know the score.

Not "Pimp My Hide"?

@Shikashi LOL! I love it. xD

Oh the woe by gone days of the Sega Dreamcast and it;s online Hackerfest called PSO. (Phantasy Star Online.) Yep, we would try to avoid getting NOLed, PKed, loot stolen, even your Dreamcast could get physically damaged by hackers. And they could get into locked games.

That's crazy. How did they damage the actual console by hacking a game?

Well then, I guess that's the one flaw of Sega's revolutionary Dreamcast Online system. Wasn't very well moderated, I guess.

@The Stranger No need to apologize, I probably didn't express myself clearly enough.^^
It's hard to be thorough in these comment boxes.

@Marsigne Yeah they sometimes miss and they have to try again!

My brother once had to be needled like 6 times or so.

I don't like having blood taken because it's always a tedious affair. My veins just never seem to want to give up their blood, so I always end up with large, nasty bruises on my arms which take ages to go away. The one on my left arm is only just shrinking. >.<

@Dalph Yeah I think so. Our brain probably gets fever-fried.
It's the only disadvantage of being hot blooded

I wonder if reptiles ever get nightmares... XD

@starlight dream Well, lizards might dream because they experience REM sleep.

@The Stranger Interesting info thanks!

Unfortunately, I get brain shocks if I stop taking my antidepressants. Missing some doses of my antipsychotic also make the visual hallucinations far more frequent So, I'm kinda stuck taking these things.

I have visual hallucinations mostly from tiredness. And if I feel like crap, I do some manual work. I used to do workouts, but ever since my arrhythmia broke out, I can't anymore. My head starts spinning and I can't even work out properly. Anyway, that's healthier than antidepressants

Honestly, I learned not to trifle with drugs when I was 14. I had some sort of a skin ecsema. The doctor prescribed me Zodac, antihistaminics. Took me about 8 days and I could feel I had built chemical addiction to them... I find it ridiculous, since antihistaminics aren't even supposed to do these things. But it was a lesson I could never forget.

@Philosophus Vagus He used to do some really weird stuff, but I loved how crazy it was. It's definitely not something everyone will enjoy.
@Uzuki I agree. He will be missed. I think he's doing music now.

It doesn't ring a bell, so I can't dislike him.

Hey Boss. Can I habe pizza pls.

@Gallia I appreciate it, but you really don't have to. I'll figure it out sooner or later. Well, I hope I do. xD

I'm trash at animation as well. I just make them hover when I'm too lazy to animate. XD

I feel your pain. Working on some idle animations for use in Mog's script. Ugh. Taking forever. And, I stink at it!

It could be a new song, "It's a Necromantic Life!"

It sounds like a dance club in the 80s.

Happens all the time :/

LOL! That's insane. What was the point of the disc? I think that devs abuse early access and day one patches far too much. It's very rare to get a game that doesn't need a huge 7GB+ day one patch nowadays.

Makes me wonder what sh!tty game practices will come next. I'm calling it here, the game will get mild sentience and refuse to play if it thinks you're ugly. I'm calling it here.

If they can also solve the issue with being overflowing with junk, I'm all in for this step. Otherwise it doesn't really matter, because there are potentially more lucrative markets out there that haven't had these restrictions.

@Philosophus Vagus Hehe I understand. I'm *thiiiis* close to giving in.

@The Stranger I like your reviews of games, and I know you'll mention the downsides too, which is helpful.

@starlight dream Like I said, it's mostly the amount of combat, which tends to happen in the exact same areas, which can feel like a chore over time. It's not much of a problem at first, but when you just want to get through an area, and you're forced to fight a group of vampire hunters because you can't open a gate\door while in combat mode, it starts to get annoying.

There is an invisibility skill which I never bothered with, but I've heard some enemies can see right through it. I also felt that the teleportation\super jump action wasn't used as much as it could've been. The mist teleport is just a contextual command, which was kinda sucky. However, these are fairly minor complaints when compared to everything else the game does right.

@Philosophus Vagus We have car boot sales instead. It's a similar thing, only people gather at specific locations in order to sell a bunch of stuff they no longer want; sort of like a market fo random tat. Haven't been to one in years.

We have something like that too in Italy, but they gather doing that only during specific holidays and in plazas.
Nowdays though, websites like eBay are still a better choice to sell your old stuff.

For the longest time I have had these gloves for paintball. Only recently discovered they are for weight lifting. Lol
