The Haus of Talk Thread

[Alice]

This is frankly why I don't consider people on the internet as friends, just people to talk to when you're bored.

Like it's honestly a waste of time developing either a extreme like or dislike of someone online.

Despite my post I'd actually have to disagree here. You do have to be cautious but there's no reason you can't make good friends online. For example two of my online friends have my address (because they've both shipped me stuff, I've also shipped stuff to one of them before as well) but I've known both of them for around seven years. One of them I talk to literally daily and the other I talk to quite often as well. The caveat is that I didn't just give them my address with no consideration. I weighed the potential consequences and considered I was willing to risk it.

Jesus Christ i would have never expected Willhart to be someone who'd ever do anything like that, I'm super sorry for what you've been through Horikawa. God. What the fuck.

So, went to the doctor today. As it turns out, the hip problems I've been having is due to a bone spur grinding against the socket in my left hit.

Blaaaaagh. Would be nice if the doctor told me I had something cool one of these days. Like, "hey, you've developed the ability to fly!" or somesuch.

First things first- I'm shocked to hear about Willhart, as others have said, and I sincerely hope things get better soon for those involved.

Secondly, a little vent/rant because yeah

I swear, the biggest thing I noticed growing up is that everyone I know is into some drug or another... As a child, I always figured it was just a myth, but now... So many of my friends are into alcohol, not to mention various other things. I just learned today my mom smokes sometimes (presumably very little, as I've been unaware for the past 18+ years)... Even my best friend is basically useless without daily coffee (which doesn't really count but it's something). I'm not saying I'm better or anything; my natural state is lazier and hungrier than any pothead I've ever known, and I'm a terrible procrastinator. It's just kinda unpleasant learning learning things like this about all the people I look up to.

Did you just friendzone the entire talkhaus

No I didn't. I acquaitancezoned them.

You definitely need to be much more cautious online, but your sentiment could easily apply to real life friends as well. I doubt Willhart's friends and family are aware of his activities online. Its easy for anyone you know, online or in person, to be involved in something disturbing or illegal without your knowing.

SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS REMAKE

I hope they add some of the cut colossi though I'm not holding my breath

I also hope they don't mess up the controls as badly as they did in The Last Guardian

Just something completely dumb:

So using the orz emoticon, then make three of them...

...the human centipede.

...please don't throw things at me.

I feel stupid getting excited over these remakes but

SUPERSTAR SAGA REMAKE

At the very least they're building it again in their more modern 3DS M&L engine, so it's not just a straight port. Not to mention the new content on top of it, though I'm not sure how much that is. I really hope Nintendo takes a good hard look at the M&L series and realizes that giving each game a unique gimmick isn't enough. It needs new, memorable characters and Paper Jam just missed out on that so hard. Dream Team was better, but still had a lot of repetitive gameplay elements from what I recall. I'd really like if the next game in the M&L series goes back to its roots.

So I got job offers for both of the software positions I interviewed for.

Was watching the Discovery Channel (National Geographic has more interesting stuff, though), and they kept airing a commercial for something called... Bangkok Hookers.

It's about fishing. In Bankok.

Man, now that's one misleading title. Can't help but think "how desperate are you for viewers to use such a misleading title?"

So I've been working with Vocational Rehab and it's looking like I may have an opportunity next week at a place where I could get some sorta data entry job, and I'm sorta freaking out a little. :X

Well, I guess if you're desperate for fishing in Thailand, but your S.O. thinks fishing is a waste of time, you can always tell them that you went to Bangkok Hookers and they'll be none the wiser.
