That's twice today I've had someone make me laugh out loud from a really random joke that I wasn't expecting.
I was watching a streamer this morning get to Ulbuka for the first time. His lockstyle is the Wyrmking Masque and Suit. In typical streamer fashion, he was reading aloud all of the dialogue. When Arciela asked him his name, my brain had an expectation. Instead he responded, in the most nonchalant voice with:
"Of course.
I am Bahamut, conquerer of the skies."
I couldn't stop laughing

Almost to Chief Sergeant promotion while still 75 :O! The little RDM that could! (It's all thanks to today's OP Savage Blade calcs/merit allowance).

I mean, Building Bridges only took me 6 tries, but never have I felt more incensed by an assault. Though Lost and Found is also irking me to no end.
Also, yes, CRTs are the one true god! For old gaming anyway.
I'm going through assaults now for another mythic, and I feel your pain. Combine that with me finally doing the Voracious Resurgence missions (I just got through Chapter 5 yesterday), and suddenly I have a stark reminder of why I hate Aht Urghan more than any other expansion.
I think the only part of ToAU that I actually enjoyed was doing Nyzul with a few friends back in the day, but I still have PTSD from the experience that is coming back to bite me now that I need to farm tokens.
*Flashback sequence*
Me: "Okay everyone, on lamp floors give a "/" when you find one, but if it's an order lamp DO NOT ACTIVATE IT until I say so. Do you understand?"
Everyone: "Yes."
*Proceed to lose several minutes in the run because someone failed to follow simple commands and screwed up the order*
I mostly really like ToAU, but in modern times its main point seems to be, "Hey yo, Mythics R Us!"
Back in the day I had a fairly competent assault static, but I also remember not knowing or looking up how it worked for a while. I think originally on Vyre I got to Lance Corporal solely off of doing the rock breaking one 6 times a week to sell Chivalrous Chains to keep myself in Food/Shihei. And as boring as mindlessly smacking boulders is, it sure beat the pants off of farming beehive chips and the other hoohahs.
Well, at least until I figured out about Castle Zvahl, Dark Spirit Pact, and the Beastmen weapons being NPCable back then for 4200~8300 gil. That and the Devil Manta with Angel Coral
I also remember Lamp floors. "Tell me if your lamp stays on."
"It's on!"
"It's on!"
"It's on!"
"It's on!"
"It's on!"
"Ok, whose is actually still on?" Followed by 5, "Uhs, uhm?"
Which included me at least my first few goes of it. I'm actually up to Floor 61 now solo at 75. Gonna try to go the distance!

B. order can still go *** itself.
edit: Vyre I cheap with Building Bridges as I multibox and I found that if you have somebody on /follow and the Lamia sees the "leader" if you're quick enough the guy on follow can move out of the way without being seen. Lost and found is stupid easy if you use mappy, but if you're trying to do it solo "legit" then gross.

If the intro or ending credits of an anime, during some season, don't have two people walking towards each other and passing each other by without looking at each other, is it really anime?

Lost and found is stupid easy if you use mappy, but if you're trying to do it solo "legit" then gross. I did it legit on SCH/thf by going West > North > Get Caught > South > East > Center. Didn't bother recording it though cause I wasn't sure I was going to actually get by the lamias within the time limit to the center. Flee was actually pretty useless, but radar was kinda nice. Had Sprint Shoes and Sandstorm boots going the whole time.
Though to myself, "Man, somebody POS hacking this would have it so easy lol." That line of thought has entered my head several dozen times through my recordings. "Oh hey, if I had clipper I could probably just phase through this door I need a KI / random drop for."
Also thanks for the offer but the character I'm doing this on is currently on Odin.

Quote: Sonic Co-Creator Yuji Naka Arrested For SE Dragon Quest Trading Scandal
A recent statement from Square Enix surrounding the arrests states that the publishing company has been "fully cooperating with requests from the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission". The statement goes on to say, "We deeply regret the great concern this has caused to all concerned. We have dealt with this incident strictly, including internal disciplinary actions taken against the suspected employees".
The special investigation unit has found that back in 2020, Yuji Naka had gained important information regarding the new android game "Dragon Quest Tact" when he was still an employee at Square Enix, the parent company of "Aiming" which developed the game. He is suspected of having bought 10,000 shares of "Aiming" for about 2.8 million yen (Approximately $20,000 USD) before the title was announced in anticipation of the company's stocks rising, therefore breaking the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.

Pokemon launch night... i tried to avoid spoiler. Idk how everyone got it early There's always review copies nowadays that get sent out to every mildly big Youtuber/Twitch streamer that Nintendo has on their, "Give review copy." list. They often get these review copies like a few weeks to a month ahead of the official release.
Other than that, idk, digital age and time zones make releases kinda whack. I can't remember what game it was, but some game a couple years back was playable by Australians before anyone else due to their time zone allowing the download.

An old Saudi country singer passed away 3 weeks ago and i just found out he died. Guy was a legend, he had a song (apparently a true story) where he met a Female jinn in the Shore and she he described the meeting in a song, hard to to explain the lyrics but one was too lovely and scary at the same time, he Described her in the song, he said something like the blackest night is on your horn and the Waves of the sea comes from her eyes. anyway so I googled Jinn and poems because they always goes hand in hand
What a read i remember my dad taking me to the empty quarter and there was a Cave where he would say this place is where old poets would gather and learn From jinn lol.
Truly a nice read that's actually accurate which is a shocking from the HuffPost lol

Lol i googled the cave too

I'm preggers! Wait. Different test, but the sample I just took came back positive for the big one-niner, so that's a negative. I really really just thought that I only had a cold for the last few days. I tested because It's been like 3 days of coughing (that is getting better(ish) today.
I've isolated since before I started even feeling sick. At least I've been nice and when I ordered pizza this week, I even used the "no contact" option just because I thought it was a simple cold.
I'm at least double-vaxxed. Possibly triple. I forget and I've lost my record card somewhere. So many people got it so much worse so I won''t make light of it any more than this here.

Lmao. As if going back on the poll results for the stupid Tiktoker collab wasn't bad enough, WotV also announced that the winter event unit everyone voted for will no longer be a winter event unit, and will instead be a standard global-first release, and the announcement is trying to pass it off as if it was an error to be corrected.
The vote was way back in January and they're only now announcing this "correction" less than a month before the unit comes out. They couldn't be more blatant about the fact that the change was because players have been stockpiling winter event unit materials over time and they'd rather people shell out cash for the character-specific ones instead.

Dont mind the background noise, got too many delievers at once lol. Still adjusting their positions, I think I need another stand for Ramuh. And I guess Siren might go with the more important avatars.

Looks great.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
