Can you even beat the fourth boss in MM2's wiley stage without running outta Crash? I can always get close, but I have to die to refill it and then finish the fight.

Edit: Just watched a clip on youtube. Yep. It's possible.

It's possible, but you gotta use your items to get around the walls. You have to use every single crash shot.

I always have to use a E-tank during that fight >_>

If you open and close the menu rapidly when the cannons fire, the shots go through you without harming you.

I was the opposite of TC. Had just graduated from highschool a few months earlier

I was able to understand what was happening and why it was so scary. And I had to spend vthe next few years on edge and was terrified to get on a plane

As for that day I spent it arguing with people on the Everquest forums and having CNN on

I thought ww3 might break out over this and I was trying to warn people eager for war and revenge

OMG finally another adult. >_>

A little. I was definitely noticeably uncomfortable (mentally, not physically; I was like omg what do I do). Felt good tho obvi

How long did you last?

Shockingly longer than expected

Condom?

Yes

Yeah that sums it up pretty well from what I recall.

I think I lasted longer than expected just because I was super nervous. >_>

Wait, but you think paid maternity leave is common?! Lol.

It exists, but vast majority of women just get time off without pay, or use time from vacation/sick time, or get short term disability insurance. But the job doesnt just pay you from a special maternity leave bank.

Don't understand why they thought this was ever a good idea to use Kap, a guy who completely sucked during this last 2 years as a 49'er and had offers from the Ravens and Broncos and turned them down. I expect their shares to drop even further as the day goes on.

Yeah, I don't take any issue with the kneeling thing--he just sucks as a football player. Why have a guy who is known for sucking *and* roughly half the country hates (even if I think their hate is misguided) as your spokesperson? Like is it worth exciting half the buyer base to completely alienate the other? It just seems like a terrible business decision.

she makes Hank happy for some reason. so that's a plus. Hank is a good guy and needs to be happy

but still, I wish she had died in the skydiving accident. and the rest of the series dealt with Hank as a widower

Hank eventually dating again could lead to some hilarious episodes.

Not necessarily a plot hole, but really early episodes establish Hank loves golf and Willie Nelson, but he seems the type that would think golf was a yuppie sport or something, and think Nelson is a long haired pot smoker that hed not be a fan of.

Honestly the only big concern I have about it would be end of life or emergency stuff. Like what if a loved one is horribly injured in the middle of the night and I'm out cold. I could wake up and they could just be gone.

It's scary and would likely happen eventually.

I think I'd do it if it were a real offer though.

Yeah, like right now I have an infant daughter and Id hate to just be totally out if something weird happened... and like eventually my parents will die, Id hate to not be able to know if it was in the middle of the night. And while hopefully decades from now, what if my wife is in poor health or something?

But its a lot of money, soooo...

when was the last time you actually saw Spider-Man 2?

i also hold it really high in comparison to other CBM, but after rewatching it recently, it's not as great as i remember it being

It used to be my favorite comic book movie, but I haven't watched it in over a decade and I can just imagine, while it has its moments, it probably doesn't hold up.

While I'm sure its better than some of the weaker MCU films by and large I'd say most of them are better.

I dunno how you effectively write her off without killing her and her not 100% abandoning her family, but I dunno, I would've found a way... yeah, this will probably get cancelled this season, but if it does well maybe in a year or two they could bring her back in if she stays on her meds.

I was never a fan of her or the show so I don't really care that much, but it seems popular enough that killing her is a bad idea.

Im an old man as well and I dont get people paying tips or whatever and it seems crazy some people make a living off of it, but while I dont really watch live streams I do put archived ones on pretty often... but just to have something on TV while Im wearing headphones and working out or as background noise/video while Im taking care of my infant daughter. I definitely wouldnt just sit down with the intent to stare at it for hours, though.

Yeah the series (especially 2) had its problems but wasnt irredeemable, although I like Homecoming a lot better, wouldve been nice to see it play out.

She's a complete idiot. Her coverage of the pro wrestling deaths, many of which had nothing to do with drugs yet she grouped them in together, was abysmally stupid.

Yeah, some of her other stuff mentioned above is worse, but I'll always remember her complete lack of understanding on the issue. Like how Benoit was "demoted from the IV Horsemen to RAW" which for anyone who knows anything about wrestling realizes that doesn't even make sense.

I've been there for the Blizzards but I don't think I've gotten real food before. Thing you need to realize is individual people own these shops so one crappy one may not represent the whole chain. Our area lost a bunch of restaurants this summer, one being a Golden Corral that didn't last a few weeks.

Yeah, Dairy Queen is weird about franchising. We have a couple of them around here, one you just walk up to a window and order and no place to dine in, and they both have all the ice cream stuff but dont even have burgers or fries or chicken strips, just hot dogs and nachos and little bags of chips.

Yeah, final from Sigma is tough. Back in the day I beat it all legit but recently on the collection I used the hadukan on the dog and first form Sigma so I go into the final form with full energy tanks, but it still took quite a few tries.

I've had three teeth out over the last few years and for whatever reason only one really gave me much pain after, two of them I was basically fine and the gums healed over super quick, the one was a pain and a big hole food got stuck in for a couple weeks. Hopefully you don't have that... >_>

But yeah, they suggested a root canal for one or two of those, but they basically said its 50-50 it'll really save the tooth, so... I took the cheaper option. Fortunately they are all back of the mouth so not visible but its gotten pretty difficult to eat overly crunchy things. I guess I'll have to get a fake couple put in eventually. :(

I do, but not a whole lot these days. Our work truck is usually turned to the classic rock station so I leave it on that if someone is riding with me since its not something anyone would complain about, or Ill just leave it if its a short trip, but otherwise if Im by myself I listen to podcasts from my phone.

Not much, otherwise, though. Used to listen to talk radio a lot not that long ago at my old job all day, but dont really have that chance anymore.

When I was a kid I had the radio on all the time, and even as a teen and early college the car I had didnt even have a cassette player, lol, so listened to a lot of radio in that.

Weirdly my current car doesnt even get AM stations at all, even local.

Heres another example. Mega Man X. A very beloved game. Yet when you die on the last boss? Lol fuck you. Jump around and kill caterpillars for an hour.

I'll be fair with Mega Man X, energy drops were at least fairly common in the game (especially with the caterpillars, the drop rates must've been specifically assigned differently to each enemy type) so, assuming you had the arm cannon piece that let you charge your sub-weapons, using the charged Rolling Shield on the caterpillars let you fill up rather quickly.

Still annoying though.

Yeah, just beat that for the first time in quite a few years on the new collection. Took a few tries to beat Sigma, and it was annoying, but it still was just a few minutes to refill every time.

I think you have to have the ability to charge sub weapons by then... if you skip the armor Im pretty sure Zero hands it to you after the last Vile fight.

I dont think starting over is ever a better option. The game gives you more energy tanks than you can hold,

having to go to far corners of the map to get to an energy tank is a risky proposition as a single fall into acid means you've just wasted both time and an energy tank.

It's much more efficient to just do everything right the first time. You also don't need to max out your life to beat the game.

Or you can just farm by a spawn pit for like 3 minutes and max out your energy.

Seems like it would be a lot more trouble than it's worth and would also likely be illegal

Why would it be illegal? No one is putting a gun to the boss's head and forcing him to believe you.

Because they still legally have to pay you for that time, and if you aren't really pregnant then you are committing fraud

They legally have to pay you for that time???!!! LOL. They legally have to give you that time off. They don't have to pay you for it--they just can't fire you for it. Most jobs don't have paid maternity leave.

Too late to go to a place that will just PLACE you in a position somewhere you will make more money? You don't even have to do a real interview. Just tell them what kind of position you want. Maybe, take test, where you have to show you can tell the difference between a cog with 5 gears and one with 8(even if you won't be working with anything like that) They just want to see you aren't totally feeble minded. All you have to do is waltz in. Guarantee it's far easier than getting your current job.

Yeah it's worth a shot.

The downside of those kind of jobs is they are technically temp, and often you might get hired on officially or at least be temp forever, but once in a while the job ends and you could be without work for a little while before they place you elsewhere, but that usually doesn't take long... and if you're only making minimum wage now a few days without pay at a somewhat higher paying job wouldn't be that big of a deal.
