Not to mention your rank isn't tied to the character you are playing (like SF6). So if you wanted to take a new character in to the league your rank will most likely tank. It incentivizes smurf accounts or just not trying out new characters in ranked at all. Since there is no placement AND no...

That's fair. Outside of the looming GF moving in, baby mama trying to move out of state. What do you think her actual reaction will be when you decide not to pay her @Bandwagon ? Would she really take you to court over it? Or have it be the catalyst to get ugly with custody stuff? Has...

What was the total cost of the painting and carpet ? You are obviously in the right in not having to reimburse her and you have done more than enough to accommodate her but then there's the really real world and you have a lot of extra stuff going on that you want to make work. Getting down in...

I'm trying to try out characters and learn some of the combos via the tutorials, but something about it I just fucking can't get used to. I'm on PC and using a PS Controller and I hate that there isn't just a reset button, it toggles between the demo of the combo and the starting position so...

The story mode has some weird stuttering / hitching any time that isn't a fight. I tried turning all my settings to low but it didn't do anything. Gave me a screamer of a headache while also making me want to yack. Other than that I think its pretty awesome. I'm going to be fucking terrible...

That is really awesome news. The best news. I'm doing OK. The loneliness is starting to get to me a bit but I just have to handle it. Its the kind of thing I'm just going to have to work on. I could have people over every day and every weekend but there will always be a time when they have...

Also, Willow Tree Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad is like 300 calories a fucking spoonful. My wife lost her appetite as well and I could at least make her do that periodically and it wasn't like staring a whole sandwich down which was just too daunting. Also weed.

What's the criteria? Male Successful (more than 1hit) Songs don't have much depth, remind people of another time, and are polarizing.

Booze. He started drinking when his kid died of cancer before they were 1.

Follow up. An additional development (not sure if its because I'm a few years older or because of the devil concoction known as milk of magnesia) But my guts are NOT back to normal. I took it easy on Thursday afterwards and was fine, then today through lunch I ate pretty bland but had some...

I had my second colonoscopy today. Prep was a lot worse than the first time (or maybe I just deleted the last one from my memory). They had me taking milk of magnesia instead of miralax this time. Never again. That shit is fucking nasty. My choices were fucking cherry or mint. I have no...

The battle of the life insurance has been resolved. After an independent investigator, 3 hours of interviews, me stepping in to get her records after the investigator was inept, affidavits, 1600 pages of her medical history, underwriting review, case review, and committee review, it's finally...

Just found this thread and thought I'd throw my experience as a mostly sane person in to the ring. When I was in 8th grade me and 5 or 6 of my friends were in a field one summer on Cape Cod. We were looking up at the stars as it was a moonless night. And we started seeing 3 or 4 things...

That does make a lot of sense, but that'd be cheating. Bell Pepper it was decided, so Bell Pepper forever it shall be.

News and Notes. My wife's mother died on Tuesday the first, one day before her husband died 3 years prior. People keep asking how I'm feeling and I tell them honestly. That the grief hotel has no vacancies right now. I don't know if it's because I don't have the capacity or if it's because...

If there really no good doctor's where you are, and based on the above being a clusterfuck. But this was just the Rad doctor's office correct? Not your Onco? I guess the question is, what's your plan? Shitty inept doctor's can contribute to your death just as much as the cancer itself.

I am at a whopping 5 MB/s, All in says 6 hours....

I have spectrum and that sounds like something those AIDS ridden assholes would do.

I have decent internet, It's not a wired connection (old brick house, too much to drill through). I haven't restarted my router in a while and when i just checked, I still have 120 down, 40 up but have not been able to figure a way to not have abysmal steam download speeds. I'm tired of...

No name yet. I pick her up next week and am still on the fence about involving the kids in the name. I'm sure my son will either want to name it after a planet or something like Poopie Fart Butt, but we'll see.

Sorry, I just meant having a 2 and a half year old and a 5 year old by myself that I can barely handle and then adding a puppy in to the mix. I think the dog itself will be great.

So updates as of today. My wife's mother's cancer is in the endgame and she's gone downhill precipitously this week. I knew it was serious when she stopped responding to Facetime calls from the kids which we do every Monday / Wednesday / Saturday and she really looks forward to. She also...

We're big Julia Donaldson / Axel Sheffler fans in our house. This is our #1: It's the closest thing to an M. Night Shyamalan twist that a 3.5 year old can handle.

I was just typing something similar when I saw this post. If someone acts this way as an employee I can't imagine a scenario where they will ever bring you on as a partner/owner in the business at this point, or even an expanded role. @Brad2770, is that your perspective as well or in your...

That fucking sucks. I'm a huge baby when it's hot out and not even 96 degrees hot. My ass would be in a hotel so fast. I wouldn't care if it was 2 hours away. Good luck to you man.

Reading this was..challenging. At the same time I'm really in awe of her. I just had to read it, she had to write it. Along with all the others. I don't know how she did it. I posted this to Facebook, I don't think I'll post any others, but I was so proud of her I wanted her family and friends...

Tomorrow is my son's fifth birthday. This weekend was his family party. Next weekend is the ones with the kids from his pre-school. Tomorrow the only gift he will receive is the first one from mom. Along with the letter I have to read to him. I've already told him. I wanted him to be...

Fuck cancer. It doesn't come close but it's the best there is. Fuck it in to fucking oblivion. Glad it's small and your getting in quickly.

The one that always got me was "There will be a day you'll pick your kid up and hold them, put them down, and never pick them up again. It may happen without you even realizing it." Its similar to: "There was a day your group of friends from the neighborhood growing up went home for dinner and...

Overall ups and downs. My son's fear at bedtime continues. The strategy that's been working is when I tuck him in I hold him real tight and make him repeat after me. I am calm, I am safe, nothing is going to happen to me, nothing is going to happen to dad, nothing is going to happen to his...

I just might take you up on that. Also, not sure which kind of breast cancer your wife had - my wife had triple negative, but if you ever want some helpful insight we wracked up a bunch with hindsight being 20/20. And I don't mean like - Try this Essiac Tea or try a low methionine diet -...

Of all the shitty things the one thing we were both grateful for and I'm still grateful for is that we were still given the time to plan. Get our affairs in order. Put things in place for the future for our kids. I can't imagine what it's like for your neighbor. Just flicking a lightswitch and...

So today is the day. We were only married 8 years but all in we were together for 17. I was skiddish over the whole marriage thing. I don't know why anymore but back then it felt like - why mess up such a great thing. Also she made me move from Boston to Rhode Island and turned my commute from...

So this week has been a kick in the dick. I knew it would be - leading up to our anniversary on the 13th. The friends and family train of people coming up has pretty much run its course I think. Which is fine, it had to stop eventually. I think both me and the kids have to get used to life...

- I've been drinking so I'm probably over sharing but here goes: In the early days when we started dating (2006 - 2009), when I lived in Boston and she lived in Providence. When a new Call of Duty would come out she would show up at my apartment with pizza and beer wearing a trench coat with...

So today was a good day. Turns out searching for my wife was warranted. I went on to her phone and she has stuff all over the place. In her notes app I found stuff she had written dating back to 2014. At first I thought it might all be journal / personal stuff but then there were things...

Thanks for all the good ideas and support. I'm pretty much following what @BrutulTM suggested. I'm taking a long pause before making any big changes. It would be nice to be closer to family and friends but I think for now I still have to let the dust settle. Believe me both my family and...

and I'm left with two young kids. A couple of weeks back I inadvertently derailed the Jimmies Rustled thread and some folks suggested I start my own topic here. I wasn't going to, but I'm kind of coming unglued a bit so I figured why the fuck not. In some ways it's kind of what I...

Thanks everyone. It really is nice to hear. I'm already getting those a bit @Bandwagon , and man do they bring you to your knees. The other night I was getting the kids upstairs for bed. We go out on the deck and say goodnight to Papa (My wife's dad) as normal. These days we also talk to...

I talk to her out loud pretty much any time I'm alone. It really does help. When it comes to writing, I wrote her eulogy the day after and it helped immensely. I was really proud of it, and this past Sunday when we had her service there wasn't a dry eye in the place. Prior to her death we...
