Oh I’m keeping a nice layer (but not too thick) on there.

Oh I’ve been slapping up a storm. Today seems a little less itchy, so maybe not too many more days.

Half life 2 (especially episode 2), HL: Alyx, Mario 3, Sonic 3 (with Sonic and Knuckles attached), Sonic 2, space station 13, dead by daylight, portal 2, guitar hero 3, I dunno, one of the metal gear solids or Garry’s mod

RPG’s for free OUTSIDE every Walmart that have logic in them where they can only be pointed at Walmart

Eating lunch or going to a movie by myself. Traveling alone and not having to really talk. I like doing those things with my wife or friends too, but not having to worry about anyone or anything else for a bit is great.

When I worked at a computer store (basically the store from viva l dirt league) a lady came in and kept trying to order a jizz of RAM. We had a great time getting her to say it repeatedly.

Safety equipment, especially SCUBA. Also clothes, shoes, your bed, and your computer chair.

If you drive a lot, a “low-end” luxury model that isn’t fully equipped will likely drive better, be more comfortable, and every feature it does have will be at least a little bit nicer than the equivalent in the “normal” brand.

You might even get a lower sale price on a used luxury car vs buying a new Toyota or something these days.

Maintenance will definitely cost more, but the experience of having that work done is a whole lot better than how it used to be on all the shitty cars I’ve had.

Not everyone will agree with this one, but I pay more for better seats on planes too, and tend to fly only with Delta for status. That’s because I have extra blood clot risk and need the wiggle room, and because I have beef with most of the other companies due to many years of experience.

My travel curse has largely been managed after getting all the stuff that gets you through the lines faster, including global entry.

Recently we were about to miss our transfer and there was a dude waiting at the gate when we deplaned who loaded us into a Porsche and drove us around the runway directly to our next gate. That was probably random, but there’s a 0% chance Southwest or Spirit would do that.

Also treat yourself to some fine dining if you are able, even if it’s just once every year or two.

Maybe get someone to deep clean your place (even once a year) .

Note that I am in no way a baller when I say these things. I always thought you had to be rich to get anything cool like that, but it’s not attainable than you think, assuming you’re not in a paycheck -to-paycheck situation (which many are and I certainly was for like all of my 20’s and a good chunk of my 30’s).

Yep, I know a lot of people who were devs back then. It’s not that it was “no big deal,” but the nerds saved the day.

No wheezing the juu-uice!

My wife drinks chamomile every night before bed. I drink different kinds of tea depending on my mood.

Also having an actual “afternoon tea” with all the food is excellent.

…No.

There was a baseball parody of this song about Sandy Alomar back in the day about him stealing bases.

Painting minis with an airbrush, also powerlifting.

Yeah they look about 45 (a few years older than me) to me. I think that’s about right. 80’s 45-year olds look like they are in their 50’s.

The fast and furious movies are very much a campaign. There’s a great quote about it that I think came from SomethingAwful.

It’s like how in any jrpg you start off fighting rats or spiders (street racing) and end up fighting god (probably street racing against god). The actual quote is much more is depth and is more about the gear and leveling up.

Yeah it’s even worse that he was doing it at an event that’s very focused on being inclusive and accepting of everyone. It shouldn’t even be a situation where you need to read the room. It should be a given.

Jake the Snake saying that he knows a joke he shouldn’t tell, the entire audience being like “don’t tell it,” and he told it anyway and lost the whole audience who was with him up to that point. It was the racist/xenophobic one about dropping silverware down the stairs to name your kids. There were a few Chinese people in the audience.

He doesn’t even wear pants though. Now, if the ladies saw someone wearing “cool guy” underwear…

The modular clothing thing is mostly a running joke between friends and I, but yeah that makes sense that techwear stuff would have that.

No, that’s why you have to have a bunch of different modules to reconfigure. I do have relatively long arms though.
