me: wow i wonder why i have this itchy red patch on my back? i hope i'm not allergic to something like the cover of the chill pack i use for my shoulder!
my mom, looking at it: honey that's a chilblain
me: ......
my mom: you've been doing 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off, right?
me, remembering how i usually just slap it on there and then sit for like 2 hours: ..........uh...............................................
@boisdevache@guineapig.party EXACTLY but some people punctuate it that way and they are Wrong.
(i think it might be more of a mid-atlantic/yankee thing because then you are thinking of the contraction as "ya + all" not "you + all", and while 'you' does get shortened to 'ya' down here, in the deeper south it tends to be a different sort of vowel sound than starts 'all' - more like 'yuh' - but i ain't a linguist lol)
@wintgenstein get a pixie frog! then it'll be more the frog in danger of eating the cat.
(ok i kid, they don't get THAT big, but they're very very good absolute units)
....you could probably break skin with this if you had a sufficiently sharp toothpick or other toothpick-sized bolt....

"yeah i concealed carry" i say as i pull out my palm-sized crossbow, loaded with a sewing needle; "ow what the fuck" says the mugger, "goddamn what the hell, you know you can just get pepper spray right",
fishing in #ffxiv is in fact zen as hell. you definitely have to be in the mood for it, but if you are, it's amazing.
seriously. put on a podcast, kick your feet up, and just go fishin'.
is it high octane action? nope. but it's peaceful. you get to enjoy the lovely views. you get to relax. it's a great time.
(top hint: in sound settings, turn the music down low so it doesn't drive you mad, but leave sound effects up so you can hear the sploosh of a fish on the line along with your podcast.)
@mythros a lot of people rag on fishing for being a waste of time, but honestly, i find it a very lovely excuse to sit down and take a moment to just look at the landscape! ffxiv is an extraordinarily gorgeous game, and the day-night and weather cycles often mean that you can get radically different views, and just... enjoy looking at some lovely landscapes!
@LANthus GOD THAT'S EVEN BETTER.... I'M SO HAPPY.... i'm bad at video games but as A Fat Girl it is so happymaking to see fat girl characters in video games who are powerful and not jokes π
@LANthus i have just known about this game like 5 minutes ago, and Doris is the best video game character i have seen in many months
(also can i just say from reading a review here that i'm very pleased doris is a slow-moving character not because she's fat but because. she's lugging heavy bombs around.)
@productidea oh it's about a specific dude? ok that makes much more sense.
i got that feeling but now i'm sure that the entire thing could have been much more effective and succinct if it just read, "y'know what? fuck greg. i hate that guy." and that was the end of it
