    I copied the Dimir Control deck Merchant was using on a video for Singleton. I won two games and just felt bad for myself and the other person. It was painfully slow to get win cons out and I was just cancelling and destroying everything the other person was doing for like 30+ minutes each...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    The baby bonding thing is quite similar to what they do for short term disability. While you’re on baby bonding you lose all access to your work phone / laptop / and you can’t even use your key card to get in the building(s.). Same thing for people on STD, which is only 3 contiguous days off...

    My company has six months fully paid for women, 2 for men. 18 months though, damn! Only caveat is for both men and women you’re forced to use your remaining sick time, but it caps less than 100 hours anyway so no big deal.

    It wasn’t like that every week. Sometimes it was once a week or rarely more. But point taken.

    So, update to meeting the family: they were super warm and inviting. Things were, as they would be in any situation, slightly awkward and nerve wracking at first, but that went away pretty quick. Parents were cool, grandpa was cool, met some friends I hadn’t met before, and some cousins (or...

    Dark Sun was awesome on PC. Buggy as shit as I recall, but loads of fun. I don’t think I ever came close to finishing either one of them. Great music / animation / voices for the time it came out.

    We had a meeting with corporate security recently on (common sense stupid shit) you shouldn’t do. These are all retired police, state troopers, FBI, etc, and they investigate everything from employee threats, to drug use at work, to people lying about their time. They said they’ve fired or...

    How fucktarded is Ashiok for being -1 for fucking four cards mill AND fucking exile. 20 cards milled and exiled for 3 mana barely getting into the game. It should be either -2, or either mill OR exile. Not both. What were they thinking with some of this shit.

    I was just telling my coworker today who got me playing this game that I’m kinda bored of this current state of affairs. I’m hoping the next set that comes out makes things a bit more interesting. I find all the planeswalkers obnoxious. Also I’m tired of seeing RDW perpetually.

    I read about it a bit. It happens very frequently when I’m about to win, and other people on the forum are having the same problem. Apparently, when someone concedes it can cause everyone to disconnect, but they said on the forum they usually still get the win for it. I guess since I reconnect...

    I keep getting disconnected (you’ve lost connection) when shit explores very frequently. Really obnoxious. I bring in a jadelight ranger or even worse use command the dreadhorde to bring back a lot of shit with actions to perform and there’s like a 50 percent chance it causes lost connection...

    Merchant on YouTube did one of those in a recent video. I love janky shit like that. If you look at his latest videos you’ll find it.

    Well, it’s official. I’m meeting her parents in less than two weeks. They’re having a graduation dinner / party at their house and I’m invited. All her friends will be there, grandfather, and other family members. SO. That won’t be at all nerve wracking. 😂 At least I’ve already met her...

    I don't pretend to be anything special, it's just so fucking easy in the Bay Area on Tinder if you look at least half decent, have a personality, and dress appropriately. There's so many women here at least some portion of them are A. gonna be into you. B. aren't very hard to get. I put it...

    Correct. Nothing below 18, and to be technical, probably very few over 58ish. :) I think I may have mentioned in a previous post some of the best sex of my life was with a woman who was 53ish when we met. God fuck was she good. She ended up moving to L.A. unfortunately.

    I’ve went out with way more 40-54 year olds from online dating than 18-20 year olds. And I wasn’t trying to date them, it was just hookups. I think I’ve hooked up with 2-3 women aged 18-20 over the past four years. I’ve hooked up with probably 8-10 women aged 48-54. I love MILFs. 😍 The...

    I have one perspective on this. On Tinder there are underage girls posing as 18-21 pretty frequently. A lot of them these days are trying to sell nudes and get electronic money for them, Venmo, whatever. Then you have the ones actually looking to go out on dates or worse, which of course...

    Agreed on the mana. It feels like lands are coming out way more “smoothly” than before. Just a feeling at least.

    I’ve only seen a couple pics of him. Seems to be doing okay. The funny part is he’s married to a woman her mom’s age (his daughter.)

    I don’t disagree at all, lots of valid points. Anyway — cart before the horse and all. I’m not about to marry this chick and have kids with her, we’ve dated for two months, ha.

    The god cards are inane. 4/5 flying for 4 mana that keeps coming back, genius design on top of the card draw thing it has. What retard thought this was a good idea. Maybe for 6-7 mana at best.

    To be fair — very common around here. If you drive around the wealthy East Bay suburbs (I.e. Danville, San Ramon, Pleasanton, Moraga, Lafayette for example) during a weekday, you’ll see tons of wealthy mommies walking around in yoga pants and meeting up with other wealthy mommies for brunch or...

    Nah. She’s got the capacity to make some good money after graduation though as an RN. Previously stated, but she only wants to work a couple of years and have kids.

    Exactly as stated. Her grandfather owns eight houses in the East Bay. In my capacity at work I've got access to various real estate tools and looked them up after she said he did. That's a lot of rental income. I’ve mentioned this before.

    I’ve mentioned before, another reason I like this girl, this isn’t someone looking for me to support them. She owns a house that would sell for $1.1-1.3m. Her grandfather pays her bills and her family has wealth and a lot of assets in the area. I’m not looking at her for money, I have my own...

    I got it off for 10 in one game. I didn’t have that much in my graveyard to get back though. I just had my first loss...long ass game against teferi and the dude mass manipulated everything, ha. Think I had 7 wins in a row.

    I also look way young for my age. There have been people at work who think I'm 27-30. I have zero baldness, I'm in good shape, and only a few grey hairs.

    Funny, I worked with a guy with the exact same ages when he got married. He was 25 and his wife was 16. This was back in the 70's. I think he actually started fooling around with her when he was like 23 and she was 14-15. Her parents found out about it later, and they got married soon after...

    Why, because it’s a dude dating an older woman? 9 years isn’t that bad. I had a multi year relationship with a woman almost seven years older than me. She was in great shape and had perfect skin and looked no older than me, so that helped.

    Of course it is. And? I’ve traveled, lived in several places, moved across the country, had many relationships, and experienced more than her. I’m single with no baggage, we’re both relatively affluent, nothing is holding me down either way. If it works it works, if it doesn’t it doesn’t...

    I’m not. She’s not perfect, nor am I obsessed with her, nor do I have any particular hope this will work out any more than anyone else I’ve dated. Your “pussy on a pedestal” thing doesn’t work in my case. By all accounts everything is healthy at the moment. There’s plenty of give-get...
