  1. So my parents have an English mastiff now. Not quite sure how I missed such a massive dog.

      I’m so jealous! I want a Neapolitan Mastiff. Dem wrinkles...

  2. So my parent’s washer exploded.

    Its not funny… Its hilarious. I’m visiting and apparently, the chip shortcircuited and kept filling the washer past its capacity.

    I walk into a tidal wave of water and their fluffy cat sailed past me looking like a drowned rat clinging to the wash basket.

    So off to home depot in the morning.

      An ad stealth merged with my screen when I was looking at the status updates, so all I saw was:

      “So my parent’s washer exploded.

      DQ Holiday Blizzards! “

      So I clicked on expecting a totally different story. Now I’m hungry.

      The good news washer cost under 600 for a 7 year warranty but we had to purchase the hoses separately.

  3. I hate being mistaken for a manager. A long shift and roughly five minutes in I’m getting blasted for something a coworker is doing.:pissed:

      Maybe it’s a good sign to start asking for a promotion?  (and a raise)

      Haaaaa…. I know that feel. I was the de-facto manager for almost two years before my boss was willing to provide the title officially…. because as long as they don’t give you the title, you don’t command the pay. Your job sounds like it is full of a-holes, too. Screw them.

  4. From ANON - ShadowDancer on November 27, 2018 Don’t stop there!!! I liked this one a lot. It had all the elements I like in a fan-fic. Thank you. You are correct I’m not stopping there. Events are slowly picking up speed.
  5. ooooo. @Jaydee Tentacle Christmas extravaganaza?
  6. Ho. Ho. Ho. Don’t lie he’s got room for at least two more. One more if you count the misses.
  7. What if that’s the one night a year he allows himself to be happy? I mean being evil incarnate must be hard and hardly anyone ever prays for the poor guy.
  8. Becareful of a stiff breeze then. Or else the fence will cave in and you do both. Aka I saw my tentacles doing things to Santa Clause underneath the mistletoe.
  9. Gonna try to be fluffy this time round.
  10. o.O

    Somehow.

    My story Grand Inquisition went full vampire without me noticing. :blink:

      That bite on your neck, must’ve been while sleeping…. (or, it was super-deluxe oral and you were too...erm...busy to notice)

      Aaah. Its pretty hard to bite through leather just saying.

      Full vampire is always fun.

  11. Now if you were a deity vying for control of a world with pantheons(teams/alliances) With the standard alignment axis

    and you only got one avatar(lynchpin to said world. Its destroyed you’ve irrevocably lost your bid for said world)

    With the alliances having access to far greater resources and power of said world. With heroes, monsters and even demigods duking it out over this vast map. Fog of war at play.

    You’re a loner god with no ties to any faction. Where would you decide to place your avatar?

      Hm. There are so many possibilities…

      I like positions which are easily fortified but which also provide avenues for escape. Mountain ranges with an extensive network of caves and tunnels would work, especially if I could allow my shadow people free rein in those caves and tunnels. “No one who enters leaves without my permission. Now have some pie.” That sort of thing.

      Mountains are hard to assail, and also very useful for hiding things you’ve acquired but aren’t ready to use yet. And there’s just something wonderfully majestic about being on a mountaintop, surveying the world below, ripe for the taking. My gamer brain keeps recalling Flemeth of Dragon Age fame. She starts out in Origins as a cranky old granny in the Wilds, and by the end of Inquisition, well… the Old Gods are never really gone, are they? :D

      :mademyday::happykitten:

      :D thank you

      Hadn’t considered mountains like that. Delightful space to hide the spoils and to found a harpy’s roost.

      No one is gonna get the drop on you.

  12. Survived the double shift :D

    Unfortunately, I had to witness preteens in skintight jeans and G-strings. I’ve never felt the urge to call child protective services before.

      I’ve reached homeostasis on tired.

      There is no explanation for some people. I picked out my kids’ clothing when they were preteens, and there were no arguments. They dressed appropriately for their age, because I believe children are children, not miniature adults or objects of desire.

    4. InvidiaRed

      Children should be allowed to be children.

      I won’t pretend to understand such a mindset. I don’t want to understand anyone who actively sexualize their own children.

  13. I feel like the holiday spirit has been evading me.

    Just misers trying to get stuff for free :fear:

    1. JayDee

      JayDee

      S’a shame. I hope there’s at least some bright point today.

  14. Hell week is apt. Holiday panic is in full swing with every miser and groupon fanatic trying to get thanksgiving done. Foresight is a thing and being horrible to cashiers will not endear you to them.

     

    1. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      I try to be nice to the cashiers, and I try avoiding those self-scans.  (However, the local %*!mart is trying to make it unavoidable, leaving one cashier available when it’s installed self-scan in lieu of *most* of the old regular lanes.)

      Yeah, I’ll be making a stop tonight, though to a more local shop, get one or two things I know I’m out of.

    2. JayDee

      JayDee

      I don’t like the self scans either. From the selfish point of view there’s always something goes wrong, and from the unselfish I’d rather cashiers had the jobs.

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I made the turkey run last night—I like a fresh bird, and I always pick up my bird at Stew Leonard’s. The staff there is incredibly helpful, and not a self-scan in sight. It’s so much a part of my holiday tradition that I’m not sure I could do Thanksgiving without Stew’s and those turkeys.

      At my local market, I know most of the cashiers. We talk to each other about our kids, our lives, our vacation plans. I always mutter about using one of the grocery delivery services in our area, but I’d miss chatting with everyone at the store. :lol:

  15. Have a coworker who can’t Recapcha.

    I’ve never seen this happen IRL.

      It’s not all bad. When the robot revolution comes you will be spared for your assistance.

  16. Just the setting. Once you build a world and continuity as long as you don't violate the rules of the world and the guidelines everything else is easier to let it happen more organically. Only outlined a whole story once. Hated everything about it and deleted it wholesale.
  17. Kinda like when you RPG you have to get a feel for the character or characters. Keep a general idea. events usually happen that will get you from point a to point b. The last time I tried to be meticulous about it I rage quit and deleted the entire thing. The only notable exception is Oceania in general. Haha.
  18. Double shift on thanksgiving.

    :behead:

      I try to avoid shopping that entire weekend.  Though the one time I did go shopping on a Black Friday, I needed groceries, and that side of the store was nice and empty.  Electronics section was a different matter (fortunately didn’t need that).

      Cyber Monday is where it is at.

    4. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      Yes, Cyber Monday.  I prefer online shopping anymore, something that can be done in a birthday suit!  :)

      Moderation applies to all things. Even to a social species like us.

       

  21. Haha. The Hallowen reviews were great. So let's see how this goes for the rest of my work.
  22. Companies are sneaky af. When they learned I was going to leave
