The immediate obligations are all done and I'm up to date on everything else so I can kill time on Odyssey without that productivity guilt.

Please. I am a dignified and professional young woman who would never insinuate anything provocative or grotesque.

First world problem time. I hate going to the liquor store. In Virginia all liquor is sold through state-run stores with antiquated checkout systems. So you spend most of your visit waiting for people to pay. Tonight I was behind two people, I just wanted a little rum while I read later. The first guy, looks barely old enough to drink, takes about five minutes to pay for a $8 bottle of something. Debit card is declined, scrounging for change, debit card suddenly works but he can't remember his PIN, etc. The next is a lady who looked older than me, asking the clerk about her own credit cards - I'm thinking, lady, they're your fucking cards. And they all looked beat to shit with age so I know you've used them before. She, too, cannot remember her PIN or even which is debit or credit (it actually matters to their antiquated system). I was ready to pay for her just so I could leave.

It's my turn to check out. The lady rings me up and I'm paying, and suddenly she voids it and asks for ID. OK, flattering I'm still carded, but damn lady LET ME LEAVE. We redo the transaction and she just stands there, listening to a coworker's conversation on his phone. I have to remind her that she needs to press debit, because by this point I feel like I work there and am an expert with their POS system. She screws it up somehow. Have to do the entire transaction over.

Took me thirty seconds to get my tiny bottle of rum. Two people ahead of me. Took almost fifteen minutes. I deserve better than this, world!

Goddamn, that story made me want some rum. Gave me a flashback to the shit-tier system we used at the (now defunct) Amish store I worked at several years ago.

Moving up north where I can buy liquor at a CVS was a damn revelation. Liquor stores are terrible places

This thread isn't as busy as the equivalent GAF thread was.

Did a lot of people not make the transition?

Two things, mainly that it's been a core group for close to two years now and we've run through a lot of topics - need new people to contribute and get the discussion going again.

Also, chat is split between here and Discord as a lot of us got used to posting in there after they locked Fakegaf.

After 4 months of being unemployed as SHIT I finally got a job and it's kind of awesome.

The job itself. Not just the fact that I have one now

no shit? Congrats Rob. You deserve it :)

Yeah, the last 4 months....you know what actually, the last goddamn YEAR has been weird. It feels good that everything's rapidly coming together finally.
And thanks :) <3

Fuck yeah I will, first paycheck I get is 80% savings and the rest towards Mario Odyssey (I ended up finishing a friend's copy cause I bought a shit ton of wood. That's actually not a joke) and Doom on Switch.


And a lot of celebration drinks.

I'm assuming an Amish PoS is a complete PoS.
lol

That was the silly thing about that store: lots of Amish goods and food sold by people that are about as far from Amish as you can get. That didn't stop old people from asking me if I was Amish pretty much every day though...despite my complete lack of Amish-ness.

Got some super happy fun times coming up. Going to see LCD Soundsystem tonight, I'm not huge on them but they're supposed to be really good live so I'm excite. Then on Thursday there's some free (!) Whisky tasting event that I signed up for. My roommate went to the last one and got really fucking drunk so I'm hoping to do the same. Then on Friday I'm flying back south to spend the weekend in Clemson and go to the football game and all the debauchery that entails. RIP liver

Today I had one of the shittiest discussions ever... This guy started replying to my comments by calling me a Sony fanboy and saying my 700 euros config that I made as an example of a good entry level sucked with arguments like yeah I'm a long time PC user unlike you [...] that 1060,not even a GTX, won't run games at 1080 60 fps nevermind 4K 30 fps [...] you're such a troll and now I'm going to bloody murder myself with all the rage I have inside.

Ha, what a ding dong. Also not sure how he gets "Sony fanboy" out of "let me help folks get into PC gaming" but that's the internet for ya.
