You know those side scrollers where the side keeps scrolling and if you stop running for too long you die?
Yeah, that.

My life is very much like a point and click adventure game especially Discworld.

Full of humour

Aimlessly wondering around with no idea what I am doing or where I am going.

Full of illogical puzzles and situations

Trying random things in the hope it will work

Having repeated pointless conversations with people.

And trying to always keep one step ahead of the grim reaper.

Ima throw in horror/survival/strategy.

Life is horrible, we gotta do what we can to survive and pretty strategically aswell with too many side quests distracting you from the greater goal.

Sad as it might sound, the best video game description of my life is that tetris joke

Your failures stack up, whereas your achievements disappear.

Job and daughter ensure challenges a are being thrown my way to, but but unlike an rpg where you get rewarded for doing good, the only reward is more work, and what you've done gets neglected because everyone else is doing those things as well.

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.

    I love it for most things most stores you just shows the receipt online and they scan it

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.

    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen
