I cut (ran some hair clippers through my hair several times for a while) my own hair.

Uncertain of the result. Can’t seem to get the back of my head done right. Ah well? Ah well.

I’m thinking he meant they would be independent from Spain, but within the EU, so thus like an American state.

The ellipsis in the middle of his quote doesn’t help, since it could be eliminating some of the context.

I pretty much universally wear short-sleeved things.

(Why were you sleeping in the middle of a job? :P

GM: could you describe the crowd a bit more? Specifically looking for what sort of weapons they ostensibly have, if they’re saying anything, what they look like they’re capable of, that kinda thing)

(The aforementioned footage of the anomaly which is on the person of the D-class personnel in the midst of those “concerned and slightly agitated civilians” - as per the GM - is probably a good reason)

Ivan pushes his way gently through the crowd, trying to get to the side away from the van, aiming to get far enough that the driver can stop to get him and drive off without the civilians getting in the way.

Let me through, por favor, I must get to a médico.

Watched the M Night Shyamalan movie Split, starring James McAvoy as someone with 23 personalities. It gets right into it like; sort of gives one character in it early on personality, described by another character, and then BOOM, right to the premise.

It was alright, remained consistent for the most part, though the wtf I guess is from the conclusions the psychologist was drawing at one point regarding split personalities, which were never really explored beyond the whole “we are who we believe we are” thing.

Working retail on Black Friday was surprisingly painless.

I only work part-time though, and managed to find one task to keep me occupied for 3.5 of the 4 hours I was there.

Holy shit volume of people, however.

That is a fair point.

In saying that, though, you as the rebel would've failed in the feudal contract too, seeing as you've just caned your liege. I don't think that the new liege would be particularly amenable in those circumstances, unless there was some collusion.

That’s what I would do in the Sultan’s position. There’s a reason he’s a duke, and a reason he has those vassals.

Nah it’s cool, I do that too. The foibkes of being human.

I avoid a particular junction which would, under ideal circumstances, make my journey home from work a little faster, ‘cause it is poorly designed and I can’t trust myself not to be an idiot just to avoid sitting at lights for an extra minute. I also avoid the interstate which would take a few more minutes off ‘cause most of the bizarre decisions I’ve seen while driving have happened on the interstate.

Normally I’m as patient as can be, but put me in a car and I let my most misanthropic self out.

Humans aren't exactly endowed with innate senses of the proportion of the metal death-beetles we encase ourselves in now-a-days.

I mean. You got like three mirrors to see the rest of your car; that's it. And they don't even cover all of it. And even if they did, we're also not that great at innately translating a distorted and cut-up mirrored image of our surrounding metal beetle into an actual mental map, enough to know the end-bits are at all times.

we're not even that good at our *own* bodies end-bits being in the places we think they are, not 100% of the time; and we've only been pilotting THOSE around for a couple hundred million years, give or take. (couple dozen million for the vague shape we got now, even) The death-beetles having been around for the eons that is... About a hundred years.

T' be fair you don't need to know precisely where things are around your car at all times, just a general idea that there's some asshat going what seems like a thousand miles an hour coming up on your left, there's someone else tailgating you despite you going 5 over, and you're trying to avoid that idiot cyclist on your right who is wearing black at night.

People are fucking stupid, your basic goal when driving is to anticipate just how fucking stupid they're going to be. People seem to be very good at anticipating when I'm being fucking stupid.

As fer Joshua's issue, he did the sensible thing, just forgot to check his mirror. Cars have bumpers, the person behind him was alright, nobody got smooshed to a thin red paste. Success.
