Istanbul was Constantinople now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople​ been a long time gone, Constantinople and a Turkish delight on a moonlit night. Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul not Constantinople​ so if you have a date in Constantinople she’ll be waiting in Istanbul. Even old New York was once New Amsterdam, why they changed it i can’t say, people just liked it better that way… So take me back to Constantinople no you can’t go back to Constantinople cause it’s Istanbul not Constantinople been a long time gone, Constantinople why did Constantinople get the works? That’s nobody’s business but the Turks… Dodo do do do de do do do do aaaaaaa whaaaaa (I’m just going to stop here)

Ok it’s from memory don’t sue me if I fucked it up.

I read this comment in Astarian’s voice, lol

Yeah … I’m sorry. It doesn’t get any easier. Over time you get beaten down and don’t have the luxury of putting energy into being angry about it. Like, your rage is on a low simmer on the back burner.

Men are blissfully unaware of what pain they cause and what privilege they enjoy and anytime you try to bring up women’s issues they scream “not all men”. Because yes it isn’t all men but we’re not talking about those men in the first place.

Talking about it here is likely to gain negative attention so I understand you’re venting but they’re not going to listen. It’s not impacting anyone. And it’s dangerous because while Lemmy is safer than reddit, you could still piss off the wrong person who might go after you. I’m sorry. There’s very little justice.

I hear and acknowledge your pain.

This sounded like an ominous privacy warning lol!

Not watching because spoilers. I’m definitely going to play it. I’m worried it is not going to meet expectations but I have heard from people who have early access and they say it’s fine. I didn’t want them to elaborate.

Keep in mind most game releases piss people off, especially in popular franchises. I mean, there are people who hated Skyrim and that’s unfathomable to me.

So I take these reviews with a huge grain of salt right now. Ask me again on Saturday how it’s going.

Gotta say I don’t like the art direction though. Blech. And I was a Solavellan so I’m already pissed off by what I gleaned from the preview trailer.

I’m trying to remain optimistic but I feel those who are undecided should wait for reviews after the full release.

Edit: it’s not going well. I’m hoping it gets better.

Everything changed. You’re not crazy. If you watch movies made before the 2000s about office culture, including the movie 9 to 5, you can see that the hours included a lunch break. Which was paid.

Yes, those of the older generation had it easier in every way.

They mean your post is poorly written and hard to parse.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat? That’s awesome. Thanks for letting me know!

Somebody tell FFXIV, I’d go back in a heartbeat.

Yes. Wigs are sweltering hot, sweaty, and itchy. I’ve only worn synthetic though. I’ve heard human hair wigs are better but not by much.

You can get used to it or suffer through based on how sensitive you are.

Depending on the balding pattern she may tolerate toppers and other hair pieces rather than a full wig, which may be more comfortable.

You should see his civil war ghost too. I fucking lost it. https://youtu.be/FAZJVkelgcg?si=z-DPAAzGvtYd0phB

I just was rejected from 5 jobs in a row. I straight up asked how I could have been a more competitive candidate. I got some specific feedback about software I didn’t know (fair), an answer on a questionnaire that was milquetoast (also fair), but mostly kind things said. They’re not going to drag you but it can be a productive conversation.

“Nowadays” ? Boy let me tell you of the proto-memes in the days of the early internet.

Tl;dr: Everybody be snarky since forever.

It was gross back then too. In the 90s the Coasties would trawl the junior high girls. 25 year old men “dating” 13 year olds. We all knew it was gross as fuck and not okay but small town cops didn’t give a fuck. Hell there was a deputy “dating” a 16 year old too.

It wasn’t looked at differently in the 90s.

A guy in my class knocked up a 14 year old during senior year and we basically all stopped talking to him because fucking ew, dude.

Ha! I remember that commercial.

Thanks for the info. I’ve had my credit frozen at the 3 since the Equifax leak and now I gotta add this bullshit. Ugh.

Lol good catch. It was totally on purpose and not swipe being swipe. Yep.

This is the modem equivalent format for an ancient dirty joke. Back in the day kids you could find collections of them in printed books, and later, entire websites solely dedicated to hosting thousands of dirty jokes. They were presented in story format, often happening to your cousin’s friend.

Not saying no one had ever had this happen to them in the history of mankind. But this is also an old dirty joke that is probably more commonly repeated than acted out.

Disabled. Thanks for the tip!

9. I’d ask Picard about archaeology. Chakotay and I would be fascinated by his lectures for a few hours then we’d all quietly read and probably nap.
