That is because you are a gentleman and a scholar.

Hang in there.

[Nylarthotep]

And if you want to hang naked, I have a few clubs that will be appropriate when things reopen.

I thought about that but I didn't want to bring back any alcohol related memories or make light of them.

I appreciate it, but it's been a LOOOONG time (1207 days today), and even the cravings are gone.

Yes, I have a lot of regrets about missing most of my kids' childhoods, but hiding from the past is what dooms people to repeat it.

I got most of the base block in, I probably would have made more progress but co-worker needed to leave early to sign some papers, and it's Friday.

[TriOmegaZero]

It’s good to be Friday.

Except when the dogs get in a fight that requires stitches.

[Limeylongears]

I have cut myself on a diamante picture frame, so my evening has pretty much peaked.

[John Napier 698]

I'm sorry, everyone. I forgot to mention that I was here when I got to work.

About to go home. Have a good weekend, everyone.

[Vidmaster7]

Have a good one John.

That seems vaguely German.

[Vidmaster7]

What did they change to make it good?

[gran rey de los mono]

Maybe they made it actually work.

[Vidmaster7]

that does tend to improve a game.

"Our European visitors are important to us.

The site is closed for EU visitors."

Yeah.

[Vidmaster7]

Well your important to me Drejk.

Yes.

Also, they added NPCs that harken back to the New Vegas days.

Before the Wastelanders update there weren't any NPCs, you got your missions from holotapes or notes and the only vendors were robots, so the only people you came across were raiders or other players (and we all know what collosal douchebags other people can be).

There were no raiders either.

[Drejk]

I have finished Fae Tactics.

Excuse me, I think I got something in my eye.

[Drejk]

I have missed the opportunity to get one hidden character, I got the second one only because I checked the guide to getting characters. The third one was comparably easy to get on the other hand and quite probably I would got him anyway.

[Drejk]

It's a great game and it is part of this month's humble choice.

The combat is similar to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, though the character management is completely different. The story is cute though it has some mood whiplashes, and both the music and the graphics are great.

There are some terribly annoying fights though contrary to what a guy in a video review that I just watched claims, the game is far from difficult - it's just that individual battles are very uneven, especially if you know what you are doing and take advantage of complexities of the elemental system, enchantments/curses, and skills of characters and summons you have.

Speaking of politics, seriously, California?

We have a proposition so convoluted I actually have to read the text of the law, and of course with cost-cutting what it is, you now have to go online to see it.

So of course their site with all the proposition texts is down, or at least amazingly monumentally slow.

Y'know, if you want informed voters, you ought to make sure that site can handle however many visitors are showing up on a Saturday morning to read proposition text...

[captain yesterday]

No one wants informed voters, that's a liberal myth.

[NobodysHome]

OK. I've voted. Can I disable all election coverage now, thanks?

[Limeylongears]

Hold on, you chaps actually vote for these individuals?

We should bloody talk...

I live in California. I could write in "Captain Yesterday" for all political offices and it wouldn't (unfortunately) affect the outcome.

But yeah, lots of actually important state and local stuff this time. I like it when California realizes it's going to have a really big voter turnout because they put a whole bunch of "good" stuff on the ballot. (And "bad" stuff, but we are California, after all.)

[lisamarlene]

I live in the buckle of the Bible Belt.
You cannot imagine how many "Jesus wants you to vote for [candidate]" signs/billboards/ bumper stickers I have seen over the past few weeks.

Now, I'm no theologian, and I quit my MDiv program after one term, but I'm fairly certain that's utter crap.

For this reason alone, I hate elections here.

Except.

Texas is changing, and every vote in this state matters, so I feel I have to do my best to make careful, informed choices. So I can't in good conscience tune it out.

Please do, I'm obviously not winning any votes for county water manager here.

I should say not, but in that case, how would they know?

If I knew how to say, "Limey gets ALL the cookies" in Aramaic, I absolutely would.

I'd ask Google Translate, but it would moat likely come back with "my hovercraft is full of eels".

Hey! Give me SOME credit.

Besides, you have a bigger problem. Aramaic isn't available on my translation, because it's essentially a dead language that no one really speaks outside scholars, at least in its original form. There's many surviving dialects that have since developed into full-fledged unique languages. You'd have to pick one of those to be translated to instead.

Next time someone tells you to pray for your leaders, remember...

Their are bumper stickers with that.

This is a great start to the night. Parked my car, got out, heard a hissing sound that seemed to be coming from the driver's rear tire. Thought "Oh great, I may have run over a nail. Again." (Something similar happened a few months ago). Had my fingers crossed that maybe the sound wasn't coming from my car, as there were a couple of others nearby. Just went and looked out the window, and yep, my tire is flat. Gonna be a fun morning tomorrow.

[gran rey de los mono]

Oh, and I was complaining in my head about how, once again, someone didn't finish washing all the laundry, especially when there was only a small amount left (maybe half a load if you mix the sheets, decorative sheets, and towels all together, but we're not supposed to), and was about to throw it in the washer when I saw a note on the bulletin board saying that our cleaning supplies supplier has cut us off (no reason given), and we aren't supposed to do laundry unless we have full loads in order to try and not run out of soap and whatnot. So I stopped. But now I'm wondering why we're cut off. I suppose it could be that they are low on stock and are prioritizing bigger customers, but then I would think the note would say something like that, not that we're "cut off". So now I'm betting that since we still don't have our own manager, the bills might not have been getting paid. Which, if that's true, could be a big problem. But not really for me, since I don't deal with that s&~!.

[Vidmaster7]

If we got cut off it would definitely be because our manager forgot to pay them.

Classic Aramaic is not supported by Google Translate, sadly. Google Translate doesn't even have Syriac which would be one of closer modern relatives.

And even if it was, you would probably get a writing in Aramaic letters that might not show well on Paizo messageboards.

That certainly looks like a hovercraft full of eels.

[Drejk]

Translating back gave me: "Lemi gets all the cookies".

[Drejk]

Sorry, Limey. No cookies for you. Lemi already got to them.

[Drejk]

I had more luck with Yiddish, because it gave me both the traditional letters AND Latin transcription:

Quote:

געץ אַלע די קיכלעך Limey

Quote:

Limey gets ale di kikhlekh

If that "gets ale di" sounds wrong, remember that Yiddish is a hybrid of German and whatever the languages Jewish people spoke when coming to Central and Eastern Europe (probably early Rabinic Hebrew and maybe some late Aramaic, I'd have to check but I don't want to end with what would be hours-long Wikipedia binge)
