Genki-deficiency-syndrome is the worst! If you aren't genki then life is not worth living.

I guess I don't have to update my cosplay... maybe? Unless Apollo's stuff changes before/after chapter 2. EITHER WAY. Very excited since AA is my favorite series.

What do people do when a non-religious baptism scene, which is a key part of the goddamn hero's journey, occurs? Do they decry that as well or is this case simply because it's fake religion? It isn't real, people. It's part of a story which is meant to make you think and consider what's going on, not cause a…

This is why on my blog we review everything without a points scale. We outline all aspects of a game/movie/book and whether or not we liked them and any general issues we had. Then at the end we (usually me as my guest posters tend not to always do it) put up Play/Don't Play (or read, watch, whatever) based on what…

My parents mostly used the, "If you want it, buy it yourself" method. Though considering my sister and I got no allowance and were too young to "go get a job" (at 9 years old you also have no idea what a job entails) we often had to save Christmas, birthday, and other holiday money. It certainly helped us appreciate…

I think it's usually a privacy thing. Which, we've had physical junk mail for years and the practices for that are likely just as "creepy" (as described by the Safeway example). I'm also the kind of person who can easily ignore website ads when not using an ad blocker so I tend to just shrug at this stuff too.

I think you're right but I also think a lot of this stuff is pertinent to wage-slaves like myself. Knowing how the boss is by talking to the people that report to him/her does seem like a bit much but it would help prevent your move from one crappy job to another. I'm not really sure how someone trying to get hired…

Or work in an office park where a lot of big rig drivers stop in the middle of the street to get into one facility. It's constant weaving around them because they can't/won't move and then wave you forward. I lost my side mirror because I had to pass one and some other junker of a pickup was parked juuust close…

The fact that this is so accurate is what hurts most of all.

Okay, this one isn't exactly car related but I find it bizarre. My uncle once got a DUI on a bicycle. I had no idea that was a thing until he told us. Like, it makes sense but you'd never guess that could happen... Thankfully he has no kids to impress such values on.

This post comes as I once again consider starting the webcomic for my blog and sit here thinking I'm not good enough to do it... Stop being psychics, Lifehacker.

I pretty much banned my friends from playing it if I'm in the room. They started to play one evening and the absolutely awful gameplay and incredibly annoying repetitive sounds made me want to chuck the disc out the window. Apparently it gets better?

I'm not sure which is worse- an obvious attempt at a crappy marketing firm to sound hip with phrases like "Fruit forward" or that said marketers likely heard it and the words "creamy mouthfeel" at a restaurant and went with it.

11. We don't have the money. Too bad.

I just wanted to say that I agree with you 100%. I was going to say the same thing but you got to it first and I thank you.

I'm gonna be sad when and if all of this ends. It's just so damn fascinating.

Unless it's specifically asked for, no. The email is usually a short, simple one that contains some of what would go into a cover letter and that's about it. I'm not wasting time on something that's going to get thrown away or not read at all. No matter how many people say it's still important I'm not going to…

I'm with him. Inking is the WORST. If I could imagine the panels and have them appear I'd get so much more done.

Can I steal these? Cuz some of them I had also come up with but others are ones I never even thought of. These are perfect for pushing the interview to your side.

Seriously. The job I have is just for the sake of income and I hate it. There really isn't anywhere to advance to either (outside of what I told my boss I hated at both the interview and my year review). I'm definitely using these questions and a few other recent ones posted if I ever manage to interview anywhere…
