CarrionCrow: Good evening. =)

Slept okay, helped some people with odds and ends, ran some errands, and now I'm back.

I've had far, far worse days. =)

How's your day been?

ddickinson: Well I am glad you day has been okay.

My day has been fine, finished another game, did some work, and enjoyed an evening with my partner. Tomorrow I am at my partner's parents house for the day, but other than that I am doing good.
Silly question, why does your partner tolerate that behavior? If it were me and someone treated a loved one that way I'd clean their clock for them. Gladly!

Edit: Forget I asked that, it's none of my damn business. Sorry.

Well,I'm just a console peasant,jk.
Yeah,I'll stick to my consoles. I love my PC games but I was born and raised on consoles.

ddickinson: Thank you. I usually just sit there all quiet and smile, if I say too much I might get carried away and tell them some home truths. One time a few years ago I was there for another one of their family get together and I was so tempted to stab one of my partners aunts in the leg with my fork as she sat next to me insulting my family. I was just tapping it on the table trying to decide if it was worth it to just jab her in the leg. I never, but she got me so angry insulting my family.

*a thank you for the hug hug*

I am glad you are doing fine. It is disappointing when you can't play a game you really want. But just add it to your wishlist and keep it there for a future date when you can finally play it.

Hey now, don't you be ageist. Beauty, after all, is in the eye of the beholder.

Montague's Mount's story was okay, if I was reading between the lines, the story does kind of make sense and is quite good, but only if what I think happened happened. It would have been nice for the game to explain things more, not just leave it open for a possible sequel. It was better than Mind at any rate.

Not sure what my next game will be, I have just been picking them at random so far. I won't have a lot of free time for games once I go back to working outside next week (yay!), but I will be trying to play some games and get my backlog sorted.

EndreWhiteMane: Sounds like a sound and workable scheme, I mean plan. :-)

ddickinson: Of course, they could use the whole sexist thing against you in court, so it could get messy with all those different ists (sexist, ageist, racist, etc.) that we have these days. :-)
Sounds good aside from the whole partner's relatives thing. They continue to be pieces of shit. =)

Because I allow it. My partner will and does stand up for me, but it caused a lot of problems with annoying family members, so I tend to keep my mouth shut and make things easier on my partner. If she overhears them (they usually make sure I'm alone before they start with their childish behaviour), then of course it's not tolerated. But her family are so petty that it causes so much problems if they hear something they don't like. Sometimes it's just easier to grin and bear it. Most of her family won't even acknowledge me any more, either due to me saying something they didn't like, or my partner saying something to them. But there is always the comments and stuff when ever I am around those spoilt jerks.

Don't worry, if I didn't want to answer I wouldn't.

I'm sure you know the type of people. Born with a silver spoon firmly lodged up their butts (or married into wealth). They just love to make themselves seem superior, and what better than a common farm girl to make them seem superior. I generally don't let them bother me. I hardly ever see them, the only reason we are going tomorrow is due to my partner wanting to tell them something important. Other than that I wouldn't have to see them for months.

Makes sense and I retracted my question in my above post.
I seem to have a few leftover 'caveman' instincts, people mess with me, that's usually OK. They mess with someone I care about, that's very NOT OK. :-)

Seems like a good attitude to me. Much better than putting the family above the partner...
*big hug*

I know you retracted it. I edited my post to reflect that. :-)

Don't worry about asking things, but don't be offended if I decline to answer :-). But generally I am an open book with people.

I think that is one reason why it doesn't really bother me, my partner chose me other her family. So I don't mind it so much when they are jerks. I won the most important competition between them and me.

*bigger hug*

Thanks, I do tend to get a bit overprotective at times but I can think of worse ways to be. :-)

There definitely are worse ways to be. You should not be worried about being overprotective and caring about people.

But no need to worry about me needing protection, I can take care of myself, and if not, I have three really big older brothers who are my own personal bodyguards. :-)

budejovice: So I had another epiphany last night. This one completely unrelated to buying bundles.

My favorite movie isn't anything by Wes Anderson or the Coen Brothers. The Big Lebowski is way up there. But in the end, after rewatching it both Thursday night and last night, I believe it is fairly clear that my favorite movie of all time is Goodfellas. :)
Goodfellas is a great film, and perhaps R. Liotta's best performance, but after rewatching The Usual Suspects today, I have to put the latter before Goodfellas in my list of all time favourites.

And I'm going to state the perhaps unpopular opinion that I liked other Coen Brothers' films, like O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Fargo, and No Country for Old Men a lot more than The Big Lebowski.



And good day/ evening everyone. Hope you're all having a good weekend.
