I want to learn how to guitar mostly to play this specific song ever since I heard it in Ocean's Twelve back when I was 14. Seems like it's hard to play though...? I don't know. I don't play guitar.

Is this too classic-y?

I've spent money on this game, guys. AFTER having read this reddit post.

I...don't know what to do with myself.

I imagine that those questions are written by 12 year olds that can't hold their excitement of interacting with Jeff and so they mess it all up.

It happens to the best of us.

I get like this and I'm 22. That's why I take forever to write to anyone I admire because I don't want them seeing me as a fool.

I love the game because of the writing, the art style, and the characters. The controls I thought were good enough. I don't remember struggling with them. Nor do I remember struggling with whatever stage everyone doesn't like toward the end. It was a smooth experience all around and I enjoyed my time with it.

Being unemployed also encouraged me to be frugal in other ways, though. For instance: paper towels? Mostly unnecessary! You can wipe down dishes and stuff with rags pretty easily, and they're completely reusable if you're willing to wash and wring them out regularly. Cable television? Cut the cord! Video games? No need to get them right away! Wait for a Steam sale! Haircuts? Why spend 30 bucks a month when you can buy a set of Wahl clippers for 20 bucks on Amazon and do it yourself? The back of your head might wind up looking suspiciously like a mullet, since you can't actually see it when you give yourself a buzz, but you'll wind up saving a boatload of money over a year.

I started living on my own (with my younger brother actually, but we're both students and not working) and I learned a lot of this as well. Strangely, since both of us don't really know how to cut hair, our heads still look mullet-esque. We're both too scared that we'll cut too far up to overcompensate the "mullet effect" and end up looking even weirder, so we just leave it as is.

Anyway, I was always secretly curious how you were doing that whole year without (much) work. But I didn't want to ask because I felt it seemed too prying and creepy. Glad you posted this Rorie, but more glad you're here with the GB crew and community. Where you belong.

Emma is glad you're here, too.

I say you don't worry about it too much. And heed the words below. I would add that People tend not to like being part of a checklist. Not just the ladies. But I figure @wrighteous86 meant that.

Instead of looking for someone that fits your ideal, maybe you should just look for someone you connect with. Women tend to not like feeling like their assets are just ticks on a checklist you've made of your ideal woman.

Asian - Check

Plays games - Check

Watches anime - Check

Not a hipster - Ooh, she's gonna lose points for that one!

It's dehumanizing and demeaning. And since you've already accepted that you'll settle for the first "squatty" that will have you (class-act), you probably won't even get one of those.

EDIT: Oh, wait. You're the guy that posted a thread about what car you should buy to make a girl moist and admitted to spanking it to Alex/Sara. Good stuff.

So I'm guessing this question isn't going into the XGAL podcast?

Well, I'm happy to report that I've passed every course of mine with at least a B except one. The one in question isn't done grading yet, so hopefully, I make it through. Come oooon, C!

I wouldn't worry about your exam if I were you. I remember a course where I needed an 80% on the exam to reach a 50% in the course. I only did 70% of the exam and got a 50% anyway. They always fudge the numbers so their stats don't look too bad for their annual reviews and such.

I hope this is true. I feel like it is, but I don't know. The professor for the course that lies in the balance is kind of... not nice.

That is exactly the type of teacher most likely to adjust grades. If everyone in the class doesn't like him then everyone in the class isn't doing well in the course. In order for the professor to maintain a grade range that makes it look like his students are doing well (or are at least average) he has to adjust for the bell curve. Otherwise he looks like a bad teacher. Anyone with a 40% or up will get bumped up a peg so he doesn't look bad in a stats sheet. I'd say that close to every course that I took that I got adjusted for had a class average on the midterm exam of under 50%.

You were right. I got a B in that class. Dude just posted the grade up. Funny how that theory is correct. But whoo! Now I can breathe easy before the summer semester starts.

I kind of wish the RMAH never happened. I wish Diablo 3 was a bit more like Torchlight. I would keep playing it. Then again, Torchlight 2 crashes on my PC, so you win some, you lose some.

When I was 7, I got stuck in Super Mario RPG when you had to solve the riddle in the pirate ship. I never thought what the word could be until about 3 years later.

PEARLS. Fuck me.
