Yeah...never really got the point. Didn't do it at any point with kiddo one, don't plan on it with any kiddos down the road. Why waste perfectly good cake (even if pie is better).
Give me a good pie any day over cake. Apple, banana cream, chocolate cream, pumpkin, all way better alternatives to cake, which is usually too rich for my liking anyway.
Do like a little bit of cheesecake now and then though.
No offense to any cake-makers...I do like the occasional cake as long as it's light on the frosting.
Honestly, if I'm having the rare dessert at a restaurant or something, I'd take just about anything over cake because I'm already overexposed to it. (and I've yet to have a cake better than one I make myself) )
Here's my issue. The stuff in cakes that everyone likes? In between the layers of actual cake. I would rather have all the things from inside the cake than the actual cake itself.
Pies? Pies know exactly what it is that you want. That sweet, sweet, delicious filling. And that's why there's so much of it. It's also why cheesecake is really a pie, and not a cake. Because cheesecake also knows what you want.
The lack of block / mute / ban button in the real world. My colleagues are being extremely negative about upcoming evaluation talks (first time the company is doing them) and I am sick of listening to their toxic whining. If you don't care for the talk, just put that on your form already. But no, they'll keep on moaning and then put on there that everything is fine and dandy because "anything you say will only be used against you".

Well that kind of sucks... As of the end of may, the Nintendo DS family and the Nintendo Wii will pretty much officially be obsolete except for single player and local multiplayer.

Setting foot inside a village, leaving literally within the space of two minutes without doing anything... getting enemied for it. Going through various RP channels to try and get it reversed, no dice.
Oh well. Guess I don't have reason to sit out raids on Serenwilde any more.
? Of course, avoiding enemy status to an org you're not likely to be allied to for the foreseeable future isn't generally reason to avoid raiding/conflict anyways.

I'm a n00b. Never been in a game where the first person you contact about something like this is the CL, so I contacted the ambassador. It didn't help, and I wasn't told "you should contact <blah> instead of me" IC so I dropped it.
I guess some org leaders want greater control. Shrug. If CL's take over the Ambassador's job...what's left for the ambassador to do?

That one completely hit me out of the fucking blue this morning, I'd logged on WZ.com to check the Smackdown taping results, everything after Mania 30 on Sunday has me totally hooked on wrestling again, and that was the headline staring me right in the face.
Watching him being inducted into the Hall of Fame on Saturday and there with his two little girls, 11 and 13, his speech, him making an appearance at Wrestlemania and then his speech on Monday night all suddenly have a completely different meaning. I thought he was just thanking everyone for his career so he could simply step out of the light and live a quiet life having made peace with everyone. Now it seems he was living on borrowed time, sad story

Technically, you have no business being in a Seren village ever. I'd have had you enemied to Halli yesterday too if you had refused to leave. Our laws are a bit weird in that regard, but anyway... the important thing here is... on Prime, you are protected by Avenger unless you're in enemy territory. If an organization wants to remove you from their territory, they're going to brand you an enemy. It's about as simple as it goes.
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
Personally I've seen newbie Serens wander into Glom villages and told them to go, if they don't reply then they get enemied. This is pretty much a straight up "enemy on sight" which is a different matter.

@Karlach described the reason for my dissatisfaction quite nicely. I had actually already left the village, without being asked or encountering anyone, when I was enemied.
And now a new wrinkle - apparently there are some efforts now to stop Serens from hunting non-enemied Gloms on prime. Which, thanks to this, will obviously not include me. Joy.

Oh, I understand the frustration. Granted, anyone ranked over 800 should be aware of the political situation and know where they're not welcome. Our laws do explicitly state that we don't enemy just for someone being in our territory (and we tend to follow them to the best of our ability), but I am not familiar with how Seren laws are nowadays. It could be 'enemy Gloms on sight in our territory' for all I know.

Holy Week is coming up. I can make it, I can make it, I can make it... and no, we're not doing easy "fluff" for the week, so stop treating it like that! People.
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.
Had this terrible inkling that I was going to have a nosebleed at work today. Terrible, terrible feeling. Coworker's nose started bleeding! I think, 'Okay, sucks for her, but I'm in the clear'.
...cue twenty minutes of me bleeding all over the break room sink thinking I'm going to die. What a day.

It's gonna be a rough week(until the 15th at least) for me too......but more in relation to the command 'render unto Ceasar that what is Ceasar's'
I recognize that since you are not a particularly intelligent man, you might need some friendly tips about how to cook bacon. That's alright, it's nothing to be ashamed of. I'm here to help.
1)Consider cooking bacon when you're sober. While some recipes do call for beer, you're supposed to add it to the food and not the chef.
2)You should probably have some clothes on when you're frying things, too. It helps prevent little accidents like spraying oil on yourself, which might make you less likely to abandon your frying bacon.
3)If in spite of these tips you still set off a fire alarm, you should try not to tackle the fireman who asks if you're ok. He really doesn't appreciate it.
On the plus side, it was really hilarious watching a tour guide try to explain away the naked drunk who was tackling a fireman to the prospective students. I bet you really made her day.
Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.

If anything, that probably HELPED convince some of the kids to attend your school.
