Bay 12 Games Forum

... I wasn't sure which weekend was next weekend (29th or 5th?)

... I wasn't sure which weekend was next weekend (29th or 5th?), so was abstaining until something along the lines of a time was mentioned

Because I couldn't say without knowing that. And then a question I could provide response to came up, ha. But probably could, m'self. Just don't actually know.

Michael Bay is clearly a visionary. Another masterpiece to add to his repertoire of thought provoking, artistically inspiring films. Only the Bay could come up with a concept such as mutated ninja turtles who are in their teenage years.

Sarcasm is great, right?

Wait, what the duce? Another one? Didn't we just have a modern TMNT remake movie like, a couple years ago or something? I distinctly remember complaints about aliens.

... regardless of if you are or not, what you wrote read like something straight out of the mouth of a massive islamophobe, right down to the parallels involving terrorism. I wouldn't call it something to take personally, just to take note of, and perhaps find a different way of communicating the point you're trying to make if the misunderstanding troubles you.

See, stuff like that is why I would have, like, checked.

I didn't have any input on the event. Just suddenly woke up lightly choking on smoke and received the whole "Oh yeah, I set your back yard on fire. You should probably keep an eye on that." notification.

Part of the (previously open) back porch is getting converted into a second bathroom. Part of the process of doing that has involved getting a new hot water heater in (among other things), which has involved holes in the wall for piping and suchlike. Eventually like a quarter of what is currently the house's back wall will be coming out -- hopefully once the conversion finishes getting walled in, but this whole thing has been kinda' half-arsed in terms of planning and process*, so there's no telling.

It's not too bad, but right now there's a new hole in the main bed room's closet (complete with exposed water piping~), leading up to the attic, which itself effectively is exposed to the outside. Plus some other places.

*As tends to happen with the person that's the cause of it, these days. Old increasingly-impatient fellow with a nasty habit of calling someone else in to complete a job if whoever was working on it before is going too slow for his tastes, which are often somewhat unreasonable. This leads to many chefs in the construction et al kitchen, with unsurprising results. Case in point: Dead wood and construction leavings being burnt without bothering to warn, y'know, the people in the house, or checking to see if local ordinances were being violated (probably), or actually doing more than a half-ass job of making sure the impromptu fire-pit was actually safe to burn stuff in.

Today, I got to witness water pressure in all its glory. Seeing gravity and tight spaces launch a jet of water something like 8-10 feet straight up was pretty great.

Also crawled around in a fire damaged attic. Not badly damaged, but enough I thoroughly learned that clambering over charred wood in tan jeans is not a recipe for maintaining their color. Same for hands, though ash is apparently pretty easy to wash off.

That's silly, though, of course. E.T. is obviously Sith. Finger glows red, maaaan.

More tellingly, they're trolling some barely developed planet. Probably getting their jollies in before the invasion fleet arrives.
