How many fucking letters can I use? I’m sick of editing this shit, just fucking accept the bio, damn.

Burgers are greasy, that doesn’t bother me. Brioche buns are sweet and too thick, that’s what bothers me.
Stop putting sugar in everything. I don’t want a sweet Burger
Only for marketplace. Haven’t posted anything in years, and before that never anything meaningful.
You should never do anything that isn’t fun. Everything is fun if you make it so.
Line from a solid song by a local band i found when i was 16. Oddly enough, it never occured to me how much i liked it as a name until a decade later.
I’ve played most of the metroid games, and i know theres a ton of nostalgia for super metroid, but to this day nothing has matched the feeling of exploration and awe from Metroid Prime. Every place in the game was so radically different, and the ability to scan and learn about the environment was so unique, and exactly what i didn’t know i needed. Learning the lore and finding out what happened to the planet only by analyzing everything made the world feel like it had died, and it’s death was a tragedy. All the enemies you encounter are just local animals that don’t know better, or had been corrupted by pollution. That is, until about halfway through the game when you meet actually hostile, malicious intelligence, and the combat steps up exponentially.
It’s fantastic. I still remember being amazed at the fogging and raindrops showing up on the visor the first time you step off your ship on Talon IV. I had never seen graphocs so good, and such attention to detail, and the game was already 4 years old.
The only game i’ve ever played that felt similar was subnautica, and while it had the wonder, it lacked the melancholy and insane combat.
Prime is the best in the series, hands down.
My industry is full of pseudoscience and liars. I can’t fault them for not knowing, and probably came off as more harsh than i intended.
I correct patients all day, and got pretty burned in the long long ago on reddit by people who “know better” patting themselves on the back and getting my factual information downvoted to oblivion.
Focusing close regularly doesn’t make you short sighted, not getting enough tourquoise light on your retina from staying inside makes your eye keep getting longer instead of stopping when the focal point is correct. Well, that and genetics.
And losing the ability to see near as you age has nothong to do with pressure. Your lens is constantly adding new layers to itself to stay clear, and after 40 it’s become so thick the muscles that pull it to accommodate near vision can’t stretch it enough. By 58 it doesn’t stretch at all any more. That’s why everyone eventually needs bifocals/progressives.
Don’t state things as fact if your not sure of them.

I’m a 6’5 reasonably muscular male running two offices entirely staffed by women, except for two gay guys. There’s no masculine competition, which is nice, and communication is much more personal. Due to my strict rule of not considering any of my coworkers potential partners, I make sure I’m as supportive as possible without being threatening to any of the girls or their respective partners. It’s very interesting seeing how patients act towards me vs the other workers. They seem to treat me as an authority figure, and take what I say at face value, even if I’m just confirming what one of the women already told them. The girls have to convince patients they’re professional and not jerking them around, where I can just state something and they’ll believe me. I’m viewed as a scientist, and the women are viewed as salesmen or interns.
I mentioned my stature earlier, because it’s led to me being the office protector. I will defuse situations, defend my workers, and even fire patients if they offend anyone else in the office. If a rep for a company talks down to any of the women, or only wants to speak to me, I won’t do business with them.
Ive hired men before, but they never last. They either make the girls uncomfortable, try to start relationships, or try to butt heads with me as if they hold authority over anyone else. It’s very easy to see how someone with less feministic views could easily take advantage of the situation I’m in.
Edit: they’re always fucking cold though. 73 degrees is not fucking cold Donna. I’m wearing a suit. Put on a sweater.
Another species is very useful for unity, not necessarily for us to band together against, but because a proper intelligent alien kind of invalidates every religion. All the conflicts from culture clashing suddenly become pointless.
Or at least racists will have something else to look down on.
Came here to say this. It’s stuck with me for 20 years.
Yeah. Norm core for basics, but I’m generally dressing in layers anyway. I don’t think I’ve worn only a t shirt outside the house in years.
When trying on frame initially, Oakley’s actually will be more comfortable due to their temple style, although after your lenses are made any frame will be adjusted and balanced to be exactly as, if not more comfortable with less squeezing. (Unless the place selling the glasses doesn’t care about fitting, which is more common than you’d think)
I’m a licensed advanced optician that owns three practices, I’ve designed and manufactured my own line of frames, I’ve helped design progressive lens forms, I have taught classes at eight out of the last 12 vision expo’s. My capture rate of every premium product sale is miles above the national averages.
The only brand I call in more warranties in on than Oakley is Nike. Their zyl frames use plastic rivets that regularly snap and can’t be tightened. The temples stretch out over time, which is normal and wouldn’t be an issue except the metals use either single bar spring hinges that will keep loosening or monel flat rivets that can’t be replaced.
They are not the worst brand by any means, but if you think you’re paying for anything other than the name, you’ve been sold.
Guys wearing florescent orange or yellow knee high socks with Adidas slides and shorts that was all over a few years ago.
Dudes setting flat billed hats on top of their head way too high.
Yeti stickers on trucks. Glad you like your cooler dude.
Repping brands. Like tshirts that say Oakley or under armor on them. Why are you wearing a shirt that says under armour, but isn’t the actual under armour? You paid them to advertise for them you rube. Seeing Oakley gear kills me, I have very in depth inside knowledge of the optical industry, and Oakley’s aren’t even good glasses. You paid too much for the privilege of looking like a tool.
I may be interested in being a dj/random song info guy. I’ll have to think about it for a few days, and see if I can make a regular appearance.
You’ll have to forgive, my I played clarinet, and my classical training ended almost 20 years ago. Bassoonery? Maybe the halls of the mountain king?
Hey now, don’t call me out like that
The notes make me want to say Alhambra, but the pieces of text I see look more like the man with no name theme
Starforge?
