  • It occurs to me that now that I'm a grocery stocker, my job description is quite literally "I pick things up and put them down".
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I was a grocery stocker once.

    I did not care for it. But YMMV
  • Kaitlyn Purdy, from The Atlasphere -- an objectivist dating site. That's totally true, and way funnier than anything I could come up with here.

    Dear God, they're spreading.

  • I read Anthem by Ayn Rand last year as part of our English class.

    It was... blah. Main character was a bit of a Mary Sue and there wasn't much, if any, depth given to his love interest. I guess that wasn't the point but still.
  • If you can judge a philosophy by its followers I don't think I ever actually need to read an Ayn Rand novel.
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

    Every known culture invented some form of chair

    Strange but true

    What sort of jacked-up ass-backwards school curriculum are you attending that makes you read Ayn Rand
  • Llamas are nature's warriors.
  • Ayn Rand is an important thinker.


    Just as Nathaniel Hawthorne is an important writer.


    BURN.

    How they ever decided Ayn Rand over Jane Austen is a question for the ages
  • ^I'm not a fan of either, but I feel that Austen has more literary value and interest than Rand. My issue is that she really should have stuck with political essays because that's all her books were. Hell, go for a dialog type thing, she can't make an interesting book.

    Of course, they might have wanted more contemporary authors.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I dislike Jane Austen
  • Doctor Who reference in Pokemon B2W2? Headcanon accepted.
    Austen's writing style is nothing short of incredible. I've read Northanger Abbey and can tell you it's about an Abbey or some shit, but I can go on and on about how witty and articulate her writing is. As old as her stuff is, her wit had me cracking up laughing in places. I can see why she's considered so important as an author.

    I've been in a weird mood all day

    Snappy, aggressive, twitchy, worried more than usual, showing no restraint with poor taste...

    And now my whole body twitched and attempted to bash my head in for the second time in a year

    I'm starting to think that weird mood = Stay away from sharp things in case I suddenly Tourettes
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I've felt weirdly anxious and depressed today. More so than usual.

    Something in the air, perhaps...
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    My regular computer can't hold a charge. I'm hoping we can get it fixed enough so I can at the very least transfer my stuff onto a small data disk so I can keep it for a new computer.(which I need anyway)
  • Irene: Is it a laptop?

    Also, who's this bald guy trying to be Billy Mays?
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    Yep.
  • ^Do you keep it plugged in all the time with the battery in? That can kill the battery. You may just need to get a new one.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    ...Yep. Thank you, that's all I honestly needed to know. :) *hugs*
  • Irene: No problem :)
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    I gotta sadly wait till Tuesday for this, though. :/

    However, my computer needs a fixing up, so it could take even longer.

  • Wait that can?

    Explains why my laptop's battery lasts only half as long as it's supposed to.

    Yeah. When you shut it off, unplug it. Also, if you're going out of the room for a while, close it too and unplug it.

    Save every bit you can. Besides that, don't leave it on all the time.

    You could talk to me about it.

    Roy Orbison was exactly this way for the latter half of his life. He just wanted to be left alone, for the most part.

    :/ I know exactly that because I did that a lot in high school. If you need to talk my inbox is open.

    that was a Shenmue joke actually
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    what is shenmue
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    I've never played it but the Wikipedia article sounds cool.
    Considering the high production costs, Shenmue experienced disappointing sales. According to IGN, the game, which cost an unprecedented $70 million to make,[40] would have had to be purchased twice by every single Dreamcast owner in order for Sega to turn a profit.
    Ouch.  That's a real pity.

    I like when games pay attention to detail and aim for immersion and exploration.

    You guys have never played it? The kitten in the box and the forklift races alone are worth playing that game
  • We have it somewhere along with our Dreamcast.

    The most fond games I remember from the Dreamcast era were Re/Volt and SoulCalibur (the first one), but I remember my dad specifically liking Shenmue.

    I don't play video games, they rot your brain

    ^^Well, that's true. The rot is less direct that way.

    I just found out that there's a new Dallas show on TV

    I am the worst Texan

    now I must go to youtube to see how they rendered the opening because really that's all I care about


  • I might've had Shenmue, the Dreamcast was our first console and we basically had every game for it before my stepdad sold it at a yardsale.

    They've made games for it as recently as last year. Which I am astounded by.

  • I am just a poor boy, my story seldom told
