As a fellow emetophobe, I can empathize.

Honestly, I'm amazed that my Book Overboard Count = 1. Not that there haven't been many near misses. I've even partially submerged my iPad before, but at least there I can put it inside a large ziploc bag and still be able to turn pages. My Dex score isn't nearly high enough to be able to do that with a book.
The only book I ever dropped in the tub as a kid was the first book of Tad Williams' Otherland series. Not a big loss.
Boom. We have a winner! Personally I do down into the basement of the building. Hardly any students use that washroom, let alone know about it. So, not only is it almost always empty, but more importantly it is always cleaner than any of the bathrooms that are constantly sullied by heathens on the 1-7th floors.
I'm actually surprised that isn't a thing yet.
My maternal grandmother passed away May 5th of this year, three months before my wedding. It's not the same as losing a parent, but it was rough, being the first time that I'd lost anyone that I was close to outside of uncles I never saw during my early childhood.
Thank you for that little piece of gifception :)
A Trainspotting reference? Well played, sir!
I use my iPad almost everyday. Twice a day during my weekday commutes. Do I use it in any way other than as a replacement for my MIA Kobo ereader? No.
I only really experienced the crazy part, very little that was scary. Most of the time is was kind of boring, to be honest. Depending on the day of the week, it was often quite dead, so you sat around a lot since cleaning only takes so long.
I've never understood why/how people get so irate with servers/cashiers/etc for doing their job. It happens all too often. Hell, it's even happened to me once when I worked nights at a 7-11.
It's a cool game, really neat and unique mechanics. Using musical notes and scale as the method to access universe altering magic? Genius.
I'd love to see a visually updated release of Loom.
Not only that, but I posted it 6 hours after the story was posted.
Ah. Still capable of causing untold trouble, which is what counts when you have a personal armored vehicle. :P
What are the tubes behind the lights? Are those mortars?
