Exactly this. Things are better for me now, but when I was in my mid-20s I was lucky to be employed, much less comfortably saving for retirement. I’m pretty sure I’ll be working until the day I die.

Same, and we were in a wage freeze, so I was gradually taking home even less money because my insurance premiums still kept rising.

Let’s consider Mary: who begins working at 25 years old, earns $60,000/year to start [and] gets a 2% raise every year.

If Georgia’s laws are the same as my state, you have to sign the citation to acknowledge receipt. It’s not an admission of guilt, just saying that yes, it was given to you. You can then take it to court to contest or whatever.

Also that “kimono” (looks more like a bathrobe, but) is being worn with the right flap over the left, which is how you dress a body for a funeral, not how a living person wears it.

6. Since he’s a fugitive — equipped with the “I’m a fugitive now” beard — where did he find the time to get a whole ass black Captain America suit?

My allergies got so bad I developed asthma, and I finally gave in and started allergy shots. It’s kind of awful and the shots are some of the more painful I’ve received, but I’m now four years in and while everyone else is dying of spring allergies I’m over here going, oh, it’s spring, isn’t it?

The group was roughly half and half male/female (and I am, in fact, a woman), and she had been told before that when we gamed we gamed for the entire day, so it’s more like the group would’ve been better off without someone who wasn’t deliberately trying to sabotage us because we weren’t catering to her every whim and…

I kept wanting to watch it since I first heard of the show, and I’m really glad it’s on Netflix now. I might have to spend my weekend on this one.

That’s why I didn’t bother to accept the offer, or any of the Atom offers I keep getting from TMobile Tuesdays. It’s just not worth it.

I’m a Level 5 and got the offer, fwiw.

I don’t see the contradiction? We said, sure, of course you can play, just be aware that we play for THE ENTIRE DAY, and they said yes. It’s not like we sprang it on them by surprise...

Nah, all you need to do is drink a glass of apple cider vinegar and rub some essential oils on the baby’s feet, that cures everything. Right?

A few years ago I was seeing a chiropractor for treatment after a nasty car accident, and I regularly saw entire families coming into the office, including preschoolers. From what I overheard from them, I’m guessing that the Venn diagram of people who take babies to chiropractors and people who think vaccines are…

Yeah, sometimes a group isn’t right for a player or a player isn’t right for a group, and it’s best when people recognize that and move on peacefully (actually had that happen recently in my current group). The horror stories usually happen when people don’t want to admit to a bad fit. :/

Too long for you, maybe, but we loved it. So did the husband who’d originally been invited to the group, who knew full well how long the sessions would be expected to last before they joined.

Except she wasn’t. The DM specifically asked if she was using a spell to do it and she said no, it was something she was born being able to do.

This wasn’t fun, this was her deliberately trying to sabotage the group because she didn’t want to be there. There were a lot of other things she did as well that made it really clear. She just wanted to be The Special instead of being part of a team and got mad whenever other members of the party stole what she…

Exactly this. She wasn’t trying to do something cute, she was trying to screw with us because she didn’t actually want to be there. The DM would let us get away with some of the weirdest stuff in games because Rule of Cool, but when a player was deliberately being an idiot to sabotage what the rest of us were doing,…
