  @tinuviel I think the only strippers even tangentially related to this day are the ones my father probably watched on the Playboy channel after lunch.

  @arkandel said in Good TV: I really liked Titans. All the casting choices were really good, the effects were pretty decent (for a TV show) and hopefully when the full roster is on the screen it won't feel crowded. It looked so horrible in the trailer(s). Plus, I mean, what's with Beast Boy showing up in my backyard? There are better places in the world than Covington, Ohio, man.

  So, Monday the doctor finally got me off the high sugars train... by crashing me in their office. Hard. So Tuesday, I got to go back to work - and at lunch, got a text from my sister that my dad is in the ICU at one of the local hospitals, and in a bad way. I went and sat with him, though he's sedated and on a breathing tube, and has no idea I was there. - But now my sugars are back sky high from the stress, and the high sugar headache is back. I can't win for trying, and all I want to do is crawl off and cry. I can't wait until they take him off sedation, so I can snark at him and feel like things are okay.

  Greg Stafford. A friend of mine reminded me of how I GMed his first RPG when we were in Grade 7. We played RuneQuest, for which Mr. Stafford was a designer and writer. All of us who played felt like nerdy outcasts, but we all enjoyed coming together to tell and write stories, battle enemies, and live out the fantasy of a farmer-turned-hero. I can't wait to play RPGs with my kids, and I sigh with happy sentiments and resignation.

  I should probably note that the US actually does have laws about requiring employers to give time off to people to vote -- something along the lines of, "If there's not three consecutive hours that the polls are open during your shift, your boss is required to let you adjust your schedule so that there are." The thing is, a) most people don't know that and b) most Americans live in at-will employment/right-to-work states, so while your boss isn't allowed to fire you for taking time to vote on Tuesday, he or she is allowed to fire your ass because you wore a green shirt to work on Wednesday and fuck green. Like.... there's a whole host of things your boss isn't allowed to fire you for in this country, but the onus is on the employee to prove that's why they got fired. If your boss has about three brain cells to rub together, they will say, "Well, Jim, we've decided to let you go for being three minutes late to work that one time six months ago" as opposed to "Well, Jim, we found out that you really butt-sex -- the with other dudes kind, I mean! -- and haha, Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. Get your stuff and get out."

  @tinuviel said in Buying Shit: @auspice said in Buying Shit: @kanye-qwest said in Buying Shit: @ashen-shugar that chair also comes in WHITE? WHAT KIND OF MANIAC BUYS A WHITE OFFICE CHAIR That office in Manhattan that just remodeled to be "modern". It's probably full of lawyers. Nah, advertising executives. Can confirm, have seen white office chairs in Manhattan and they were in an advertising agency.

  @auspice Oh yeah. I getcha, there. I think I will eventually decide to take them out. Right now the boxes help conserve space on my itty bitty desk, though. My monitor takes up too much room!

  @bobotron said in Wikidot formatting?: Otherwise, it seems to be funcitoning alright (I wouldn't mind having the edit buttons on the top, but I can live with them at the bottom.) You can hide the default page options with css, I believe, then: http://www.wikidot.com/doc-wiki-syntax:buttons

  Started working on doing kitbashes with my Warhammer, it's quite rewarding when it works as you get access to some more unique looking pieces and gets you working outside the box. Also I am sick of painting blue space marines.
