  • I haven't played AC. My experience lies mostly in Far Cry. I got a free copy of Far Cry 3 with my Radeon HD 7770. Little did I know that's where the series would peak. It's one of the games I wish I could play for the first time again. Vaas is easily one of the best written and (and especially) acted bosses in a game ever. He's such a pain in your ass until you kill him, then the final boss sucks so much, you miss him.

  • Help! My flesh has fallen off, and I can't pick it up!

  • Not how my experience went. You read the books, you got the points, and (assuming you were doing well in every other aspect of the class), you got an A. But if you struggled with reading (as I did in school), you got poor grades despite the fact that your grammar, writing, and spelling were otherwise excellent. Very rarely did I get a teacher who rewarded reading; most of them punished my failure to read.

  • The day my parents signed up for Facebook was the day my account died. I'm sure many other millennials have similar experiences lol

  • Quit squaking, flesh wad. Nobody's forcing you to buy anything.

  • My first job out of college was in a hospital. When you see doctors outside of their own setting, you quickly realize that >90% of them are pretty stupid at literally everything else. I was an accountant processing travel reimbursements for business-related professional expenses (mostly vacations disguised as conferences and workshops for CMEs) and many of them just could NOT understand why they weren't allowed to claim alcohol on their travel reimbursements. Literally, the IRS will not allow it. And even if it did, state law forbids it, too. Sometimes, I got angry emails because they couldn't claim miles for taking a detour to visit a relative before going to their destination after I adjusted it as if they drove directly from work to the airport. Shit like that. I was good friends with the IT guy there and he had many similar gripes. Most of his job was arriving on-site to plug machines in because they swore up and down on the phone that the machine was plugged in.

    I'm convinced the majority of doctors are just average intelligence people who spent a decade practicing and mastering a skill. That's it. Anyone can be a doctor if they can be allowed into med school and sink the time and effort into becoming one.

  • Amongst my siblings, none of us is shorter than 5'10. My sister is dating a man who is 5'6. They're so cute together, but I felt so bad when I first met the guy because I wasn't expecting him to be that short. So I opened the door and looked right over the poor fella.

  • Hahaha I wish I had friends who loved me this much.

  • My wife really really really wanted a MacBook in 2020 and the major plus of having it is that I got to steal all the fonts. Mostly, I just wanted Helvetica lol

  • Yes.

  • Was this made by my wife? Are you her? She really has to know all the minutiae of the flow before deciding whether it's worth going with.

    Not a dig at her, btw. It can be frustrating to deal with in the moment (I'm more go with the flow than she is), but when we get there and everything goes smoothly, I genuinely appreciate her already having it figured out.

  • For those who don't know, Martian solar eclipses suck compared to ours. The near equal relative size of the sun and moon to Earth is why we get such awesome eclipses.

    Perks of having a planet-sized object slam into your planet during its Hadean Eon.

  • Idk about you, but I feel a great sense of freedom using Linux.

    In terms of "many versions," my advice: Mint if you loved the Windows UI, Ubuntu if you want regular updates, Debian if you want rock solid reliability. That's it. That's all you need to know if you're new to Linux. Skip everything else until you're comfy, or if you like it, stay a while. There is nothing wrong with either of the three. You'll learn to hate Snap on Ubuntu, and once you do, just install Debian.

  • Imagine telling this guy what that little third 9 in the price of his fuel means. Think he might switch to electric?

  • You can! You set it up like this:

    If you put any text inside the brackets, it makes it a hyperlink instead of an image.
