Current Events > Good news: saved a fuck ton of money. Bad news: I'm going to die

(+) Yeah! (+)

So that Yugioh game on Steam was on sale and I finally bought that shit, because I was craving some good old card games for the past few days and then I saw it. It was like serendipity or something.

so you may be saying how is saving 20 dollars off a 40 dollar game a fuck ton of money? And what is a fuck ton when converted to metric?

well I cant answer the latter because I only conceptualize size in imperial like a true American, but the former, you see, whenever I get in the mood to play Yugioh I end up spending a FUCK TON of money on cards I dont need.

like damn five years ago I couldve gone meta if I had some foresight and spent hundreds of dollars on a good deck instead of on a bunch of affordable budget casual decks, because it all ends up the same. >_>

right, so the Steam game has pretty much every Yugioh card that matters. (ie Harpies, Toons, Ritual Beasts, Pendulum Magicians, and Peten the Dark Clown) and even some that dont (ie Vehicloids)

so now instead of spending all my money on real cards, I just get them all for free!

but heres where the bad part comes in. You may not know this about me, but I have an obsessive personality. Like once my mind focuses on one thing its almost impossible for me to think about anything else. I was eating breakfast this morning, and instead of saying gee this milk tastes expired, I should dump it, I just drank the milk anyway while thinking of how i was going to build Lightsworns.

so I drank funny tasting milk and am probably going to die. But I saved a FUCK ton of money by buying a video game on sale.

hurray!

Korean milk takes for FUCKING ever to spoil though. You should be safe.

RIP TC

Also I fuck with lightsworns even IRL (play fairly casually with my cousins) so let me know if you need suggestions

This is why I play MTGA instead of playing the actual game like my brother. He has a bookshelf FULL of cards and its cost him a lot of money. I have all the cards I want in Arena and spent.. $5

I was expecting "good news: it's not any time soon" as the punchline on the OP

Ngl this seems to be true. My MIL just keeps fucking buying milk because she thinks I like it, but the only reason I drink so much is because she buys so much and I dont want it to go to waste.

but while American milk starts smelling kinda rancid a day or two past expiry, Korean milk has been fine well over a week past the due date. >_>

If the average is a week from the whatever-date to ingestion is a week, then Korean milk is like a week and a half or two weeks. No clue why. I would assume they have more additives, or less restrictions, compared to the US FDA.

I actually remember Jessie Kotton showing a deck profile of some weird ass 60 card thunder dragon Lightsworn thing and he actually added some zombies into it. Namely, some of the shiranui cards and unizombie and I think one of the Gozuki/mezukis? Weird af but thought it was kinda cool. I'll try to look for it sometime.

Our Lotte Mart has been importing Denmark Goat Milk and it's phenomenal. It's not as heavy or filling as the cow milk sold here either. Try and get some of that if you start to feel bloated. I'm sure your big city marts will carry it unlike us plebs down south. Maybe she'll start getting that instead?

It's because their method of pasteurization is different. They heat the milk much higher, which kills bacteria spores and extends the shelf life to a matter of months.
