Gladius, an arena fighter of all things!
Ogres can fart and its actually quite strong a move.

Still fighting PJP thank you.

So it turns out I got a bad lung infection called PJP. I'm being treated fotlr a few days but they've continue to up oxygen because the levels drop.
They have me on high oxygen.

I think this one will last but it's blowing so hard it comes out my mouth. Very hard to relax.

Interesting what I learned from Matpat on them.
Part of the reason it's cheap is they use Muenster in combo with Mozarella, Muenster is cheaper.

Also they own a side business delivering stuff like ingredients to places, so they can afford to lower pizza price.
I've really only had the hot and ready. It's good.

According to news other little scrolling thing. They called for backup and negotiators. I've also heard they barricaded him in.
It's possible they hoped it'd be a hostage situation.

Dude was never making it a hostage situation.

I never thought about it because I left in 08 and barely knew about Colombine.

S'why I like Yahtzee. Dude is clever and can knows what he's doing and talking about.
Also don't underestimate jpop idols!

In an ideal world, the parents of the shooter would be forced to take responsibility for the actions of the scumbag they brought into the world and subjected the rest of us to.

Do you know the situation?
As far as I've read, he lived with his grandparents, one of which he shot and stole her car.

Doesn't exactly sound like the one's raising him were on his side here.

It's amazing how whenever these stories happen the vast majority seem to lose their ability to think critically and become overly emotional shit posters.

Just one guy here.

Either way, saw this live on CNN, cried.
And she tried to call authorities too.

I appreciate the bumps.
Currently in hospital for a probably unrelated issue.
I'm waiting on platelets to go up so I can continue treatments for cancer. So that sucks I can't do anything while it...potentially spreads and it's not slow.

Right now I think I got pneumonia or something. Making me short of breath and tired.

When I was a kid it made me feel so bad I turned the game off...poor puppy.

Subway is closer than any other place.
Firehouse is further.
It's the only custom sub place I know that'll do spinach wraps.

There is a Firehouse, dunno if they do them but they are decently further away.
There are Italian restaurants. They don't do Spinach wraps nor the large variety of ingredients.

Those are the reasons I get Subway. And next to the Firehouse is a Jason's Deli which is different but more tempting anyway so I usually then get that instead.

The only thing I choose at Firehouse is their really good Meatball spicy.

Such an atmospheric game.
Pretty spooky and fun. Odd unique gameplay.

I'd rather the cuter things from the 70s or 80s.
Not inappropriate, but a bit cheesy.

Baiting a discussion. Got me. Ill plead guilty to one count of making people talk about shit. I hope the charges arent too severe.

Answer da question! Nyeh!

Obvious bait is obvious.
Ahem.

"Both sides" what?

Aw.
Mine have been...tormenting one around the house for a day now. Having problems getting it and we don't wanna get bit. I feel so bad but I can't do anything.
Awwww though. They playin.

A ton of voice actors at cons, mostly Funimation, as well as the guy that played Freddy on Nightmare on Elm Street, og.
The entire MLP main cast, a few side characters actors, as well as writer Lauren Faust, so that was really cool.
Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers.
Anime director Shinichi Watanabe.
Crowley and Lucifer from Supernatural.

Welp, on one plus side, they were worried about my Bone Marrow because of low platelets.
On the good news, no cancer in the bone marrow!
They think the immunotherapy I was on contributed and should recover.
Downside, gotta get an mri and start new treatment and can't talk to my doctor about it until Monday. And still gotta deal with possible brainstem related issues.

As long as I can keep my muscles relaxed and hold out I shouldn't be too bad. Slight breathing issues due to tight throat.

Outside confirmation bias, is there any reason to believe it?
And with links saying it's an old photo...

It's just silly to do so.
People liked a girly show. Some of them were cringy. Many were cringy.
Some were racist.
The show, and fandom are mostly harmless and have also raised charities and done good things.
Find them cringe if you want, but to do this?
It's just...weird and honestly kinda disrespectful to those that died if it's misinfo.

We don't need to be doing this. It only hurts people.

I think it's different per person.
I can still eat spicy foods normally, but Pizza sets me off sometimes.
I take pepcid if it gets too bad. Tums for instant minor relief.

Oh I mistook this for Tommy.
I had heard Red Ranger was a little less on the up and up but didn't know.
I hope the others are holding up better. And yes I know about Yellow.

I remember the theme scaring me at bedtime as a child. I've never watched.

I'm really, really sorry man. I know we went at it a lot here, but I would never wish death on you. If there's any chance at all that you'll pull through, I'm praying that you will.

*sigh* Yeah. I can't hold grudges at this point.
I thank you.

Is there someone in particular you'd like to reach out to, but cannot? I'm decent at tracking people down, I can hold a message.

Oh, uh...hm...not really but I thank you.

It seems we're mostly buying time. Hey if we can reverse course even a bit that'd be great.

Old NoiseTank posted...

what are some things youve always wanted to experience?

Go to Japan. Was going to when we actually thought I was getting cured. There was a tike where they didn't see anything. But that's because the scan they used was less accurate.
Now I'm just finishing games and shows while spending my time with family.

what are some of your favorite music artists?

Toby Fox, yes videogame, Hopes and Dreams legit helps my back muscles relax.
Kiss, and a bunch of 80s rock bands.
Poor Man's Poison is a band I've liked a couple songs of.
I do also enjoy the 30s, 40s and 50s style swing music. Sinatra style but no real artist I can think of.

Do you have anything planned in terms of care, should things take a turn for the worse?

I assume hospice will happen if it gets there.. I get disability and have insurance.
I've already sorta taken care of funeral arrangements before it even got to this bad.

I'm in the process of reading through the Bible one book at a time. It's been a couple years, and I'm in Ezekiel right now.

Ecclesiastes was always my favorite, and it probably still is. But I haven't read them all yet.

Looking into them more in depth, Ecclesiastes is an odd one with how pessimistic it is. It practically goes against everything.
Ezekiel is interesting historically.

I remember reading recently about how certain things may be exaggerations, but that doesn't necessarily make it meaningless. They may have found David's fortress, as well as Sodom, thanks to a site pretty obviously hit by a meteor or something. Very interesting things.
Biblical archeology has shook my faith and yet strengthened in some ways.

Hey, an assault caught on video.
That's an easy case win or should be.

Well at least I don't think I'll delete this.
Heh, imagine if this reaches 500 I don't think I'll make another unless I somehow last a long time.

I have had a few fun adventures.
Went to Atlanta to Momocon to meet a youtuber i like, Pan Pizza/Rebeltaxi.
Also drove 10 HOURS from Dallas to McAllen TX for a convention and nearly went insane because that was my first big drive lol. Also because Pan was possibly selling memorabilia there.
Met Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers!
Went to several cons, met several people.
been to Washington DC, been to Baltimore, once Disney World.

I have a little Let's Play channel with 2 friends, Ray and Atou. We stopped around Covid times and never picked up again. We have lots of memories, and Playlist show who is in what.
If anyone wants to watch any of it, quality varies.
I think Virtua Quest, and our Yakuza were pretty alright. Tons of different games.
I never...watched the ones with only my friends without me so I cannot vouch.

All are good mixed with Coke.

I suppose I can throw out some interesting bits about myself. That might be fun.
I grew up my life in DFW area of Texas.
Lived half my life with my grandparents then mother and grandparents and brother.
Father was out of picture early, abusive.

Had a variety of pets! Dogs, cats, a goat, hamster, turtle, chickens (though those were for eggs) tadpoles from 4th grade classroom.

Worked as a Lab Technician in a concrete plant testing rocks and sand for 10 years!
Not my passion but my Grandad got me the job. He was HUGE in the concrete business.
DFW Airport, oversaw bits, Fort Worth Convention Center Water Garden, even places like New Orleans and Panama!
I'll post more random trivia, it's...comforting oddly?

Hate bullying. Happens all too often.
Middle school I think is when it gets real bad.

Jabodie posted...

I never know what to say in a topic like this to be honest.

Do you have any favorite books or movies? Any recommendations? You mentioned being a Christian. Any favorite verses or books in the Bible?

Movies? Spirited Away, while a casual, and animated movie, is a comfort movie for me. It's just lovely in every way.
Books? Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, when I actually sat down and read it was really good.

I also recently watched Dexter New Blood with my mom, well, the latter half. While there was some...questionable writing it was really gripping.

As for Biblical, I struggle, because you don't just read through, I've read some of the books in full but each has a message it tries to tell.
Perhaps Mark is my favorite. It is the oldest found Gospel, thus the most reliable.
Proverbs is also interesting.

Mom every day. Lived with her for many years now.
And she's my current caretaker.

Father...ooh like 16 years. Abusive, divorce.

What exactly does having cancer feel like?

Well, it started that my spine was apparently being pushed by a tumor, shooting pain up a leg.
The hospital crappily didn't scan me and diagnosed with sciatica, until one day it was too late, and both legs slowly stopped working.
As for feeling now, my arms are numbish but functioning for now.

you mentioned being paralyzed, but what are the sensations associated with it? Is everything just going numb, or are you in lots of pain?

For now, kinda numb, muscles on neck are swelling, possibly because of the immunotherapy they have me on, I hope. Maybe that'll wear off a bit. I may...lose the arms...I can't imagine how I'll keep myself entertained at that point. I might actually lose my mind.

how are you typing these messages? Are you able to use your hands? (Right now Im using a voice to text feature on my iPhone, which means all of this text is being written by my voice.)

Oh. Interesting. I hope I can get set up somehow to do that. That could keep me sane in my possible last days!

how old are you?

31. 32 August 20th if I make it.

what are some of your favorite things in life? Personally, I love to play poker. I was going to go to the casino yesterday, but my day got busy so I decided not to go. Thinking about going later this afternoon because I love just hanging out with people and talking to them. Part of the reason why I also enjoy forums its just talking to people and learning from their experiences.

Ah, just video games, political talk, lately even religious studies.
I'm Christian, though I've been looking into things that make me question. But are Interesting.
And of course hanging with friends, which has been harder. I may try to have one over today...

Ill be keeping you in my prayers TC.

Lets get some light hearted questions going.

What is your favorite video game of all time and is it the reason you created a GameFAQs account?

My favorite...that's tough. I always will cherish A Link to the Past because of my childhood.
I would also say however that Yakuza 0 is a darn good game writing wise and gameplay wise and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I...don't remember why I made my account lol. It had to be to post, so it'd either be for the Dragon Ball boards or the Anime boards.
Maybe the religion ones.

Thank you to well wishers. If I SOMEHOW make it through this...well, I promise I will show pics and stuff that I wasn't lying.
If I don't the evidence is self evident.

Jester is doing well, little hellion. Peed on my bed with me in it.
Doesn't act lovey to ME, but loves strangers and everyone else in the house.
Last big thing I did walking was rescue him from a tree outside in the rain, heh.

Probably, almost certainly.

Hello, I have been a poster on GameFAQS for a while now. Y'all may recognize me for various reasons.
I had two topics here about a kitten I rescued and raised, Jester.
Some of Y'all even gave me tips, which I still appreciate.

I have had a really rare and bad cancer for 2 years now that has left me paralyzed. Ewings Sarcoma.
It has slowly spread and has reached brain stem. It was always a slim cure chance, and now it's...really bad.
I feel I am on the downswing but I will not ever really give in.

I felt I should let someone on GameFAQS know, in case I'm never seen again, that y'all would know why.
I feel a bone marrow transplant is the next step. Another person got it for something else, and it didn't help, he died shortly after a couple months later.

Either way. I'll answer questions if you got them. Personal ones are fine. I will use discretion.
I may ask to close the topic if participating gives me too much stress as the next few days are gonna be my window to do stuff and I honestly don't know if I have it in me.

I'm even considering chickening out and deleting this because I'm getting stressed. I'll leave it up for now.

I suppose it'd have to be Katamari Damacy or one of the Warioware Microgames like nose picking.
Oh, that game Unfinished Swan is unique and strange, but beautiful.

And other than that, oh!
Mr Massagy for ps4. A weird date sim that uses your controller to give massages.
It is very silly. And no I wasn't using it for dirty purposes despite its obvious nature. I was legit curious and it was cheap. So yolo.

The Japanese TV drama had L use the Death Note on himself so Light couldn't kill him with it and it gave him enough time to prove Light was Kira. I thought that was a cool twist.

Oh was that a TV drama? I got the 3 box set and thought they were cool movies.
L getting his own movie, the whole thing was pretty cool, even if they did change the "No writing your own name" rubs, no biggie.

Meanwhile the Netflix one let's you control people to do things they logically can't, like write in languages they don't know on jail cells.
So might as well just have them state names of people they don't know.

Or control Watari because apparently when protecting your own name is smart but not your assistant's?
The Netflix one had very many bad decisions, I only watched a review however.

I liked it to some degree. Not perfect, and certainly not as good as 3 which is my favorite but still ok.
I actually had no problem with the combat and loved the monster design and plot with the families.
Alex's Theme is also really good.

Downpour had much worse monster design but a decent story.
I feel both would be panned but maybe appreciated just out of withdrawal symptoms.

1. Possession
2. Ability to take control and inhabit the body of an individual

On one hand, I just had the thought of how great this would be, considering the life threatening illness I have.
On the other... is this my spirit or do I just body swap?

Guess it's my spirit, and some unfortunate soul is gonna share with me.
Oh well it says inhabit and control, so I say I'm sharing, not kicking them out.

Nice. Literally near perfect, only a few other powers would be better for me like healing.
Lotta good I could do with this as well.
Stop wars, etc.

One thing that bothered me is Evil Strange saying "Prove it" and our Strange mentioning the death of his sister. That's something that could have been very unique to our Strange. It's a different universe, so I would expect things to not play out exactly the same in the beginning (although I know technically it's possible). But the odds of him meeting another Strange with everything being the same up to that moment are extremely low.

Right? That was a...weirdly specific thing.
It should have been something he knew was consistent, like the lady friend of his, which coincidentally they get to.
Don't know why they chose his sister.

Personally I find the movie not terribly well written (though I've had some questions adequately answered) but entertaining.
The privacy invasion sidewalk, the bee, the visuals, Wanda acting, even the settings.
I love Wong, the ever immune to blunt damage. Shoulda died like 3 times, never does.

If we can alter all universes then the multiverse really has no purpose

What do you think the purpose of a multiverse even is?

Also yeah the illuminati was lolsworthy.
"We literally had our Strange surrender to us twice, and couldn't beat our own Thanos, but boy are we cocky!"
I can only assume they have been through their own accomplishments in their own movies that gave them an ego. It still makes them unemderestimating Wanda dumb.

There's nothing wrong with destroying every Dark Hold, spells that affect entire multiverse have been done.
As for why Strange still had third eye.

They said the Dark Hold takes a toll on you to use.
It can corrupt you like it did Wanda, but we literally don't know what the 3rd eye symbolizes other than...something like a toll.

Presumably destroying it did not remove whatever psychological aspects or mind opening perhaps that it did.
After all, destroying the copy Wanda has, which was her ONLY source of Dark Hold magic at the time, did not remove her mental corruption.

I was just wondering why Strange doesn't use the "everyone, everywhere in every verse forgets thing" spell on her kids. Maybe they have to be there?
But apparently according to my cousin who saw some Wandavision, using certain spells on her is hard.

The other was why she doesn't insta win against people like she did Mr Fantastic, but someone pointed out she only does real crazy stuff when given time to calm down, and concentrate, so that made sense at least.

So now there's a little less bad writing, still wondering why beginning Strange didn't just...float America over but i guess flying or floating just doesn't work in that dimension.
And America was just...not a great character in the movie anyway.

Why is the Texas grid the only one I hear about failing?

I dunno, probably because it was one of the worst recent.
But I did look and found that it is an infrastructure problem in many places in US.
Not surprisingly, the whole US has an infrastructure problem, something I'm sure we all knew.
https://www.pressherald.com/2022/04/05/storms-batter-aging-power-grid-as-climate-disasters-spread-2/

Power outages from severe weather have doubled over the past two decades across the U.S., as a warming climate stirs more destructive storms that cripple broad segments of the nations aging electrical grid, according to an Associated Press analysis of government data.
Forty states are experiencing longer outages and the problem is most acute in regions seeing more extreme weather, U.S. Department of Energy data shows.

So yeah it's actually many places but Texas does especially suck about it because our politicians are exceptionally uncaring about it.

Bet it happened, is real.
Probably wasn't "denied an education" but merely stopped going (overreaction statement from a clearly edgy teen because their school has a crap policy)
Police came because they're legitimate truant and that is a thing that happens sometimes, I've had a friend whose sister skipped school and yes, you can get in cops for it.

Is the situation dumb also? Yes. Legit and dumb.
The are you winning is still funny.

Edit:Well it was until I watched the video. Now I hope they do alright. Edgy or no, the person is clearly a vulnerable individual.
