You should definitely not feel bad about that. And please don’t let the doomers on this platform influence how you feel about your decisions. They have a very negative view on the world because they are terminally online, don’t go outside, don’t see all the wonderful things life has to offer just around the corner or down the street. I mean, times are tough, shit happens, that’s a fact. But kids actually are better at adapting to changing times than we are.
Don’t ask me silly questions, I won’t play silly games I’m just a simple choo-choo train, and I’ll always be the same I only want to race along, beneath the bright blue sky And be a happy choo-choo train, until the day I die
The Canterbury Tales
You see the theme a lot, sometimes quite literal, like Hyperion, sometimes just a group on an adventure where each member has a story, like LOTR. Also in movies like The Breakfast Club, Love Actually or Snatch
Yeah, we had a guy who did “just Ken” by Ryan Gosling from Barbie. It was not the best song for the moment.
With karaoke you usually see the lyrics on a screen, but good song nonetheless
First time (and only time) I played, one of my group was determined to go to the hoard of monsters outside. The DM kept asking if he really wanted to do so, and he constantly said yes. Which prompted the DM to roll his little dice and make a note. That happensed about five turns, he even survived one or two turns in the middle of the hoard.
The DM kept hinting that the hoard was just a hoard and surely meant death. He kept pushing him toward the other side (I think it was a castle), but my friend was very stubborn.
It wasn’t a very long game, but it was fun. We should do that again some time.
Agreed, compare that to this fragment from Hemi in Prince of Persia.

And a fragment from Shohren
Sounds like a fun challenge. Anyone got the link for this listing?

Om a micro or meso level, there is still plenty of good to be found. Look there for your daily sanity check. If you only look at the macro level, you’ll just get more depressed.
When I was 23 I was in the same position as OP is now. I decided to have a child with my wife and do some practical work and also learn some basic working skills and ethics while doing that. I started out in a factory, but hated it so much that I decided to go trucking, where it would just be me and my truck ( and my audiobooks).
I enjoyed that for a long while, but eventually I wanted to feel useful. I wanted to make something, to accomplish something, to be proud of myself. So I went back to school. Now I’m 35, finishing my bachelor in IT and also teaching a basic programming course at that same school.
Life is not just life, you can make mistakes and change your mind a few times. It’s not a big deal unless you make it a big deal. There’s a theory where it takes eleven years to master a skill, so between you 18th birthday and your 81st, you can master 7 skills. That means basically you could have 7 careers. There’s a xkcd about it (saw it around here somewhere), but I can’t find it
It’s not really a joke though, is it?
Me and my friends were trying to be edgy while playing WOWin highschool, so we all chose demon names. One of us had some kind of demonology book and we each picked a name. I’m 35 now and I still use that name. It’s funny how those stupid things sometimes stick around. The name lasted longer than the friends
Very funny, but I would kill myself and everyone around me within a minute of running this programme
A flexible stick made of silicone
Absolutely! Nobody should use teabags, they’re subpar and we’re allready getting plenty of micro plastics in our bodies.
Graduating and getting a better paying job
I work for a school who specialises in IT. Every introduction and every graduation we have the running gag that we offer free pizza for all attending students (some other events we do this as well).
News: “Audrey Hepburn’s cat sold for $1000000 at auction”
That was definitely pitchfork worthy. I haven’t even seen it and I never will.
