I have been avoiding it.

I am assuming it is either a bog standard open-world action-RPG, or a soulsborne?

How come we refer to clothes we wear on the bottom half of our bodies in the plural form, whereas clothes we wear on the top half of our body are singular?

There’s no harm in replying, though I would hope you know what you want from any interaction if you do. Sounds like she may need to do a bit of growing up, regardless.

From what you posted it appears you have no interest in rekindling anything, perhaps even no interest in even maintaining a friendship, which is understandable. Not replying will obviously achieve that.

From her side, she may realize she’s made an error in breaking up and wants to get back together; she may genuinely be concerned for your well-being; she may have given you time to come to terms with the end of a romantic relationship but thinks highly enough of you that she wants to maintain a friendship. Probably other things that haven’t crossed my mind.

Morbid curiousity dictates you should reply though, just to see what she wants, so long as you keep us informed :p no need to burn a bridge if you don’t have to, I guess, even if she was working on a touch of arson from her side.

I swear, if I'm doing anything that isn't making somebody money my dad has to be a whiny bitch about how "lazy" I am.

Well stop being lazy then: get a job for every hour of every day and be a productive member of society. Even if your body deteriorates to the point of death, you’ll make money for someone.

I come home from work just after noon today expecting to shovel the inch or so of snow that fell last night, only to discover that despite the below freezing air temperature, the snow banks at the side of the walking path outside my house have been melting in the sun and there are rather significant pools of water forming and subsequently freezing.

I haven’t been particularly assiduous with snow and ice removal this winter so there was already some thick bits of ice near the snow bank that was providing a shaded spot, but took the opportunity to chop away some of the inch thick ice accumulation now melting in the sun in an effort to make it less problematic for neighbours in he habit of walking.

Ice chopping for over an hour as a lefty does not mix well with having a wedding band, and I now have two blisters were the skin of my hand and finger were rubbing against my ring, both of which also apparently burst during my activities.

I really should just leave my neighbours to their icy fate, but they might sue me for it.

I got too much, time on my ha-ands.

And also illness and over-the-counter anti-histamines/hypnotics. My life is great.

(Also if you didn’t have a parent that grew up in the ‘50s or ‘60s, or don’t have passing familiarity with Westerns, it comes from this)

The thing is that it means the opposite of what it says on the tin, hehe.

It doesn’t mean the opposite of what it says on the tin, it’s just that there’s very small print on it too. In saying that, employers usually make you waive that “right to work” if you ever sign a contract anyway.

I have heard it said that you’re lucky if you get hired by someone. Why is it not the employer that is lucky you decided to dedicate some of your limited time on earth to lining their pockets?

Whistleblowers do deserve better protections, but for some reason “naeb’dy likes a clype”, or whatever local wording you happen to use, appears to have been so internalized by societies across the globe so when you air someone else’s dirty laundry, even to the betterment of your community, you are somehow a bad person for doing so.

I could play again, though I’m not in the current iteration.
