Anymore and you can be a Comic book character...

Unfortunately though with only 2 clones... you just aren't up to par.

No, that's probably sufficient for a western comic. For manga, three clones and a genderbend are required.

I am counting copy cats and expies as clones.

Besides you TOTALLY need more then 2 in western... since you need
1) The Good clone who may or may not be the real one
2) The Evil clone
3) The Time clone
and
4) The Robot clone

La-di-da, starting my day, hop into my truck, start the engine...

Oh wait.

You know have cars have those "check engine" lights, which can trigger at major problems or minor annoyances or anything in between? Well, trucks have those. They also have a light that says STOP ENGINE. Bright red, big bold letters so you can't miss it. Guess which one generally indicates a serious issue? Guess which one just lit up on my dashboard?

So. I'm not working today. I do not have any form of air conditioning or ventilation (save for open windows) on this triple-digit day. I can't identify the problem. And since tomorrow is Sunday, any repair shop that this thing goes to might not finish before Monday. Hell, the last time I brought in a truck for a Check Engine light it took 3 business days to fix.

This majorly sucks.

Ye gods, I hope the third one doesn't turn out to be LSP or something.

Tir is a dead ringer for #1 and #3. And I probably (barely) qualify for #2. Therefore, Dutchling is a robot.

Makes sense. I always suspected that goblins were actually robots in disguise. They don't eat, don't sleep, don't drink and live eternally. And they abduct other races to compliment their lack of emotions!

I guess all the shit I wanted to be when I grew up wasn't really in tune with reality: Ninja, Wizard, Indiana Jones, stuff like that.

So for me this isn't the ideal job. But it's got a few things going for it:

1. I've learned valuable skill sets for any modern business that uses tech.

2. Everyday people rely on me for help, and I get to help them. Strangely this is more valuable to me than I would have imagined in the past.

3. I make enough money right now that, between bills and retirement, I'm still putting money away. More would be nice, but I make enough I've never had to really keep a budget, which is something I'm grateful for because I hate managing money.

4. We're just doing good. Great, in fact. Multi-fold profitability increases year after year. At the rate we're going.....we're either going to expand massively as a company, or someone is going to want to buy us out for the ridiculous sum my CEO carries around in his head. If that does happen, hopefully it's after we start doing employee stock or profit sharing. Because man. It'd be amazing to be bought out (for some ridiculous sum) and everyone just kind does what they want for a few years because we're all wealthy enough to not work for a while.

That's my ultimate goal for work I guess: to work so I never have to work again.

My DM says I'm not allowed to hit anyone unless they're robbing the store and I've tried to run and hide first.
So you have to run away and act scared before you attack the robber.
"Ahhh! We're getting robbed! Is should run away!"
"That's right, run, you wimp!"
*robber loots all the games*
"Ok, I finished my hiding. DIE, FILTH!"

After all... he has fought mudcrabs more fearsome than the robber.

Y'know... in context of the real world, "mudcrabs" sounds like some kind of horrifying venereal disease. Like crabs, but somehow worse, and probably stained brown for reasons best not considered. I hope MZ has never fought mudcrabs, though they would certainly be more fearsome than a robber.

Neither were dogs or cats or any other domestic animal until we bred them to be.

I'm supposed to see a full horizontal split, with the top half being red, and the bottom green. I've checked and rechecked my math. It should work, but it doesn't...

Apparently there was a third possibility that needed to be accounted for.
