I... don't think it's really a condition, per se? Sometimes that's just what it takes to get the wisdom teeth out. Depends on how they've grown in and what the roots are like, from what I understand. If you've had the x-rays they should already know if it's going to take something like that, I think, and would have told you. It it wasn't mentioned, you should be fine~

Don't forget we have a dedicated programming thread, if you have coding related questions. Probably better chance someone familiar with programming is paying attention to that one.

*pats sealy on the back*

Look on the bright side. Words will be able to describe your pain. Wisdom tooth recovery doesn't quite reach the indescribable pain threshold, so... it could be worse!

... it's alright. Block value's too low to qualify as best-shield-ever, though

Need at least two fiddy or so, preferably more. If you've got both block prodigies block value is basically all that actually matters on a shield, imo.

Actually, it's not all that sexy at all... time shield's good, but there's not that many resists (less of an issue if you've got the block-all prodigy, but eh), the damage isn't particularly notable (outside the on-hit stuff, which is pretty strong but...), and most of the other bonuses are just kinda' there. You can get way better shields, heh. Right rolls on a tier 5 random unique shield can get straight up bonkers.

Still pretty workable, though. Probably be pretty nice on a shield AB, methinks. They love that accuracy bonus and have aegis, sooo...

... didn't boss toad intervene about a sexism derail, like. Yesterday? Something like that. Coulda' been the day before, I'unno. Still. Maybe don't repeat the same mistake, quite so soon?

... aren't some people allergic to dates? I mean, they're alright as fruit goes -- pretty easy to keep the producing plants alive, anyway, in my experience (providing you're in the right climate zone) -- but if they make your partner sick you should probably avoid them.

Not sure fruit is the best method of seduction these days, anyway. Definitely has that old school charm, but perhaps only if your partner is actually familiar with the songs of solomon or somethin'. Though also maybe a bit forward in that case -- fruit can get pretty raunchy...

All well-intentioned relationship bribes in moderation, I guess I'm saying.

It looks good on basically anyone :3

I look terrible in a vest, so I apologize, but I'm going to have to shoot you down here. Vests and suit-like attire make me look more cube shaped than I already look.

... play it up, dress as companion cube? Everyone would love you and you'd die in a fire. Though hopefully at some indeterminate point in the future. Maybe stay away from incinerators in general while in suit.

E: On second thought, you've got kids. Maybe don't dress as the companion cube.

... I don't think that would be applicable here, King Frumpy of the Floridan Swamps.

Very subtle.

Bible leaves quite a lot of ambiguity about Lucy and his motives

Chiming in a little to offer some extra words, and it's been a little bit since I last walked over the versus regarding th'old adversary, but... from what I recall, not really. There's no point in the basic biblical texts (old+new testament) in which the critter in question acts against god... and at least one (The noted Job) where it acts specifically with god's blessing. The whole rebellion, working counter to god's will, envying mankind, etc., so forth, so on... is more or less extra biblical, or coming from stuff outside the primary texts. Ol' Scratch doesn't actually get much screen time, and what's there... isn't really that much.

There's certainly a lot left unsaid -- there's literally nothing said as to the devil's motives in the core bible, insofar as I'm aware -- and it's ambiguous in that nature, but...

Really, the important thing to remember is that almost everything about popular conceptions of Satan -- sometimes even ones invoked in outright theological discussion! -- is to some extent or another extra-biblical, right down to the name Lucifer. Any motive, just about any emotion or character, etc., so forth, so on, is pretty much invented. The bible speaks of a deceiver (often, at least in comparison to the amount of times it actually does anything, working specifically at god's command or with its blessing), but that's about all it says. Certainly from the perspective of dealing with an omnipotent creator, something working outside its allowance is a rather silly concept...

One of the interesting alternative conceptualizations I've seen of satan isn't as a thing, but instead as a state of mind. Not a personified devil, but rather as the state of being in opposition to god, to the extent that's not an impossibility. It certainly sidesteps a lot of problems with the built-up extra-biblical chaff that's surrounding the thing these days.
