And also knock it off with the fucking microtransactions and shit. I wouldn’t mind games costing something appropriate for inflation if we were getting complete, high quality games without the expectation that we spend even more money afterwards. As it stands, they’re complaining about the low cost of games while also milking players for every penny they can on top of the purchase price. Fuck these guys.

Ohio being on the list is pretty funny (assuming this is in the US). Going to make geography and history classes awkward.

What grade is this, that Edging and Goon were common enough terms that they had to be included here?

“Animal noises” is very broad. Furry persecution. :(

The fact that they lose “LiveSchool points”, whatever those are, presumably for saying these words, is almost worse than the fact that they have this list at all. I don’t know what that system is or how it works, but I already hate it.

Find some simple recipes, and follow them to the letter. If it says to add something “to taste”, just add a small amount of it and assume it’s fine. As long as you aren’t trying to invent your own dishes, or improvise somehow, you should be fine.

Really depends on the object. If it’s a collectible item with a value that’s open to interpretation, I sometimes do, especially if I’m considering buying multiple things. (For example, CCG cards priced at $20, I might offer $70 for a playset of 4.) Those things don’t have firm market value (or that value fluctuates frequently) and there’s usually an easy way to look up a price range quickly to get a sense for what’s a fair or reasonable offer.

If it’s something someone made and is selling, it feels rude to me to haggle. The item has no real market value because it’s something they made; the price is what they’re willing to sell it for. I’ll either buy it for that price, or not buy it at all. I guess the exception would be if they’ve got a sign inviting haggling, which I’ve seen at convention spaces on rare occasion.

Price definitely seems high, but at least it’s a decent meal for kids. Nice variety of things; most places around where I live just have a tiny portion of a single dish as the kids’ options.

This is me any time there’s a friendly kobold in any game. Deekin? Koll the Red? Popper? That’s my jam.

Is Beehaw doing something different from the rest of lemmy? You can log into any instance with any of the apps.

Sure is. You might check !lemmyapps@lemmy.world for some suggestions, but there’s many.

(Refer to the pinned megathread.)

Especially if they’d help carry your bags and whatnot; that could be very helpful for someone who has mobility issues or just has a lot of things they need to bring. Well worth $7.50

A copulating donkey?

Edit: You know what, nevermind. I don’t think I actually want to debate this today. It’s been an alright day so far and I don’t want to fuck it up like I’m sure this argument would.

I think the trailer and Steam page makes it pretty clear that this isn’t just aimed at furries. Not that furries won’t jump on it - we will, but it’s not just for furries.

Checks out, that’s about what a house cost in 1979.

$14.99 in 1979? Christ. You could just about buy a house for that.

Wouldn’t you be least likely to die if you were, say, in a coma, under 24/7 medical surveillance in a hospital, or some other similar circumstance? Being out in public at all raises the probability of dying, so how would you ever go out? You wouldn’t be able to use a knife, or even scissors. You’d never be able to interact with anyone online - there’s a non-zero chance that someone takes such offense with what you say that they find where you live and come hunt you down, so it’s safer - infinitesimally so, but safer - to just not go online at all.

What I’m getting at is, the scenario you’ve laid out with the bounds you’ve set just means you’d have the worst life imaginable. At least you’d be alive, though?

Really impossible to say because, to reiterate the point the post you’re replying to made, the media is not covering protests like it was in 2017. There have been multiple protests in all 50 states, some very large, but the word just isn’t getting out about them.

There was a post some time ago where someone mentioned going to the doctor for an employer-mandated sick note and the doctor was so irritated by it, that they wrote the note demanding 3 days of bed rest, rather than the 1 that had originally been requested. Thought that was pretty classy.

This is employer dependent in the US, too. I can Slack my boss and say “I’m feeling under the weather, going to unplug and rest today,” and she’ll say “Okay, no problem, feel better!”, and that’s the end of the conversation. Definitely the exception to the rule, though; I think OP’s situation is much more common.

It’s a hex placed on their family line in generations past, for some unknown sleight committed against a witch or something. They’re cursed to forever burn any food they try to cook.

Maybe the dad doesn’t know how to cook, either. It’s just a whole family tree of dads who can’t cook.
