As one of the few people on the planet who has never played it, this makes it infinitely more intriguing…

There’s no better way to stifle a discussion than to see there’s 10k+ replies already. Pissing in an ocean of piss.

I wouldn’t bother. People who arrive at any opinion without using logic can’t be reasoned out of that opinion using logic. It’s an emotional thing.

Drew Karpyshyn really knocked that conversation out of the park. One of the very best scenes in gaming history.

See, that is why you’d want actual authors to do your game’s story for you…

I would take 100 mosquito bites over one tick. One of the only creatures in nature to scare the hell out of me. And I own snakes.

Every single new “innovation” is literally locked behind a paywall, sometimes multiple, in tiers. You can’t just “buy” anything anymore, you can only lease it, usually at exorbitant prices compared to not that long ago.

Ancient Illyria: “Am I a joke to you?”

Stuck on peak, please send rescue.

I have a 13-year old son I love more than life itself, and my greatest regret is bringing him into this world. It was not my place to create yet another source of suffering in this pit of eternal damnnation. I will definitely not make the same mistake again. Luckily I’m currently pretty much infertile.

Everything, considering we’ll be fighting each other over puddles of standing water in about two to three decades. Today’s life will seem like paradise in comparison, even for people who are currently suicidal.

O- here. I frequently get called up when the red cross needs donations. We don’t get paid either but it’s an hour I’m off work and it does save lives.

I’m pretty firmly in the second category only. I have had the first a few times, but when whatever thing you were so stoked about inevitably fries or fails a few weeks in, you quickly learn to stop doing #1 altogether.

Encrypted DNS traffic => oh noed, what now?

Now do Hognoses!

I’ll never stop blaming that goddamn fish for all my problems. Fucker could’ve just stayed in the water ffs.

Absolutely not.

If they learn anything from this, it will be to better find the boundaries of what kind of grift they can or can’t get away with. The criminals will get smarter and barely a slap on the wrist. Worst case scenario, an entirely new flock of shitbirds will replace them and keep doing the same or worse.

As long as no one at the top goes to jail or completely personally bankrupt, there is 0 incentive for the system to change in the slightest.

Lol there’s even people accusing me of making it up or going to an illegal dentistry.

If you really want I can post pictures, but I warn you; they really aren’t pretty. I suppose I could also post the two or three pages of “aftercare” I got.

All in all, it seems a case of “This hasn’t ever happened to me, and it’s not my experience, so therefore, it can’t have happened to anyone, ever”. Whatever floats your boat.

Flanders, Belgium

I was actually warned against this since it can apparently cause actual burns if the liquor is high proof.

Bad teeth since my early youth - mostly genetic coupled with insufficient oral hygiene.

I’m not getting veneers or implants since I can’t afford those (I was quoted 34K €, which is just slightly below my annual salary). Once my gums heal, it’ll be the cheapest dentures I can find since nothing is covered until age 50.
