to this day i have no idea what the fuck people mean when they say shit like "oh yeah i've died once"

no you didn't
whatever you think happened to you, it wasn't death
if you ever died, you wouldn't come back
that's what death is

Allow me to rectify.

I was dead, no heartbeat, for 8ish minutes before I was successfully resuscitated. The previous me died, there is no getting that brain matter back after being so oxygen starved. I don't write the same, I don't talk the same, I don't think the same way I did before that happened. The me before died and I am the one living in this body until it expires.

I have the same wants, the same dreams, but what I (probably?) gained in emotional intelligence, I lost in the actual thing.

I saw nothing. Just the void ripping shit away from me and I am lesser for it.

An excessively modded Tale of Two Wastelands and Stalker GAMMA were the last things I played while waiting for Elden Ring's DLC to drop, but my CPU cooler failed and my son was born so kinda limbo atm.

Pray for the return to games, fam.

Glad I got to see this before the transition. Haven't had access to my old email since around 2017, so that most definitely would have sucked

Sent a small amount. No need to repay me. Please pay it forward by being excellent to yourself and your family.

You have saved me from the ravages of debt, and I am forever thankful for that. Truly the kind and gracious overlord Sep7 needs. I will pay you back regardless at some point though because being in someone's debt just feels wrong to me.

Halo MCC was on sale lately and it's crossplay.

Otherwise there's Destiny I think? (Lol) and Planetside 2.

I'd be down to play some Halo with you guys, ngl.

Make me one to clean up this cesspit. Or just let me make this a post to keep people on.

but you just lost the game.

How goes the war my man

The war is lost. They've resorted to just pounding bass in their car, right below us. Went down to ask them to turn it down yesterday, and immediately two of his friends from the adjacent car came to check shit out. Immediately fled, as I'm not going to get jumped again.

Wife had a screaming match from the window a couple hours later, and he threatened to murder us, so... nice. Called the cops three times, and they never fucking came. Just need to move out of this shithole.

Jesus where do you live Detroit?
Do you have a gun?

I've asked her multiple times why we don't. The argument of having a kid has definitely gone the toilet now, though. Gun safe is to be delivered in the next couple days, and my Mossberg 590 Nightstick is due to the store the day after tomorrow.

Is TP considered widely disliked?

I thought it was basically the most renowned Zelda between the 64 ones and BOTW?

General consensus on Zelda forums was it brought nothing to the table that OoT didn't. Don't think it was really unpopular tho

I'd call it more polarizing than disliked, kinda like WW.

You either loved it or hated it. Definitely aged poorly graphically due to it going for the realism approach. I can't stand it on the Cube now because it really doesn't look great, so I have to emulate. Got an mClassic on the way though, so hopefully those days are over.

The first Drakengard. Very shitty gameplay even by PS2 hack and slash standards, but the mindlessness of killing perhaps thousands per level was exhilarating. That the story getting increasingly deranged per route (my favourite part, ending D being the best imho) got it universally panned is tragic, but knowing it lead to Nier and Automata is pretty awesome though. Caim is still my favourite protagonist/anti-villain, and he was the Red-Eye.

Starfox Adventures as well. Fucked with the formula, but it was genuinely a fun game. Some parts were unnecessarily difficult or dragged out far longer than they needed to be, but overall it was lit af. I imagine its current status as the pariah of the series comes mostly from how hard it enabled furries due to Crystal.

Twilight Princess, too. Yeah, the beginning dragged, but the tone was awesome. Wind Waker might be my favourite Zelda, but TP holds a special place in my heart. Also had the best companion, so a brownie point for it there. Wii version was fun as hell, as well. SS might have been a superior revision, but TP as a OoT copy-paste it still did everything significantly better than Skyward.

Just a reminder - I lived in Louisiana for 16 years in a shitty neighborhood, and lived in Arkansas for another 9 with no problems whatsoever.

Since coming to Utah for the year and a half I've been here, I have been beaten to unconsciousness and robbed (with broken but thankfully fixed teeth), had an actual home robbery, and now I'm partially blind. Last part is incidentally my fault for not just kicking it away and not properly washing my hands afterwards... but fuck this state. Makes me want to move away as far as possible.

whether you want to or not, it sounds like you're on the path to being an excellent country singer. just need to throw in some good bar fights

ngl, I've had a really crappy county song lurking in the back of my head since the advent of soundcloud rappers. The worst part is, I think the hicks and rednecks might actually love it. Got a friend in a cm band, and he thought it was hilarious.

Beer/truck/guitar is always the go to for lyrics. Maybe a little bar to spice things up.

The hospital told me it was meth. Been under an eyewash for the past two days, and I can now see again.

Have some saline or pure H2O(?) to rub it under for the next few days to continuously wash that garbage out.

Audio psyops are routinely ineffective (see Waco).

Try tear gas and tanks instead.

Never heard of Waco until now. That was a pretty interesting read.

Dude hasn't had an utterance from his apartment since I started, though. Seems to be working fine, until I get murdered lmao.

Can you not just knock on his door and tell him if you hear that music while trying to sleep you'll pay a visit and make him look like a pretzel?

That or escelate it. Just park all your shit right outside his door and sit there in a camping chair. Hope you're picking the most obnoxious music you can find.

If you really want to break him down just play something like Barney the dinosaur's into music on a loop. They use it in guantanimo to psychologically break people down and it apparently works like a charm.

Dude is 250 (or more) of pure muscle. I'm 120 of an admittedly sedentary lifestyle. No intimidation factor there, as I'm the one intimidated lol. I feel like I've escalated as much as I can at this point. Multiple sound ordinance calls have done nothing, letters just make the guy get fucking noisier in response.

Imagine having a fucking newborn child. I can barely sleep anyways, so this dickhead ensuring my child CAN'T, at all times of the day and night?
