The retire value thing is a pretty bitter pill, especially since there's a changelog that specifically gave retire value to goop-only artifacts that had lost it (changelog 1524). So coming along after the FTP announcement and saying "someone made an oopsie, here's some tokens so you can spin up some worthless gold, truefavors, and rope" does seem a bit disingenuous.
The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure pure reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!
Clive Swift passed away today at age 82. His role as Richard Bucket on Keeping Up Appearances was part of my early introduction to British comedy on PBS, and even now I occasionally watch that show if I'm home on Saturdays, even having seen every episode many times over. He joins my other favorite from that show, Geoffrey Hughes (Onslow).
"Oh yeah, you're a naughty mayor, aren't you? Misfile that Form MA631-D. Comptroller Shevat's got a nice gemstone disc for you, but yer gonna have to beg for it."
Professor assigns a project where we have to come up with an original experiment(which none of us has done before for this program), find our own sources of malware to download, do the test, and write a paper on the results in 2.5 weeks.
I mean, I guess I didn't need food or sleep or sunlight ALL semester...
"Chairwoman," Princess Setisoki states, holding up a hand in a gesture for her to stop and returning the cup. "That would be quite inappropriate. One of the males will serve me."
Need malware!? Go the way of the average college student, I'm sure there's plenty of malware on those sites!
Those sites...

A thread being closed before it really even got started, when it even tried to police itself. There was really no good reason to shut down the brand new Opinions thread, unless the reason is that I requested admins remove posts instead of close a thread. Thanks for that!

You are offered e-hugs and other forms of consolation. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.
It actually got worse, but thank you. My office is something in between Game of Thrones and middle school at the moment, and I just figured out who Cersei is.
Mafia is fun and all but I prefer it as a game over being real life.

That moment when the Dora movie looks better than the Sonic movie.
Either way, Detective Pikachu is going to be hyyyyyyype.

My wife put it perfectly: "It's like they filmed the rest of the movie, pat themselves on the back, then had the sudden horrific realization that they forgot to design and animate Sonic, and the trailer was due to drop tomorrow" (summarized, of course).
Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"
Daraius said: You gotta risk it for the biscuit.
Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
More of a funny story... During tonight's timequake, I was having lag of 18-25 seconds at one point, and some over a minute. But this isn't my house, and I've only been here a few days, so I don't even know where the router is to try resetting it. I ask about it, and find out this other guy is downloading a huge file(dunno what it was).
Him: How'd you know? Me: It's messing up my game. Him: Game? So you're the reason it's taking so long! Me: ...This is a text game. Him: <silence> Oh.
I am angry tonight. I am so angry. I am angry enough to consider quitting my job without something else lined up. I will likely calm down tomorrow and probably won't quit. But tonight, I am angry that blatant sexism in the workplace can still exist, that it can still create stupid issues, which are then turned around and blamed on me because my patience has worn thin. I am angry that I even considered if it was all in my head, because society conditions us to overthink in such a way. I am angry that those who are supposed to manage these sexist jerks claim they will do something about the behaviour and then don't. I am most angry of all, however, that I allowed this jerk to take up valuable space in my head for several hours, frustrating me beyond words to the point where I would even consider endangering my family by forsaking my job.
I am angry and I am tired of being treated with such callous disrespect.
I am angry that it is interfering with my not-on-the-clock time.
I am angry that it is bothering me enough to dull my desire to do anything but fume.

Not a parent, so when a kid says "hey can I do X craft project?" it doesn't occur to me that this will be a group activity. I feel like I should feel bad for not being more involved, but mostly I just appreciate the fact that I'm not a parent and this is only temporary.
It's full of laxatives so it's bad enough for regular people to use. But the thought that some pregnant women are going to buy this and endanger their own and their future baby's health is making me sick. That "bloating" you're trying to get rid of, is called a baby!
You are startled as a lemon meringue pie bounces harmlessly off you after being thrown at you by Mysrai.
Think I'm going to have to give up on ever seeing my cat again.

I am this close to my breaking point:

That line between reality and satire keeps blurring for me.
