i changed it to that 2 portait and 1 landscape to see if it is better
i still did not cable manage but i will soon..
sand goblet
I prefer the two portrait
rough sapphire
i have 2 22" monitors and one 24" for gaming
gentle moss
well
vestal briar
Best setup
dusky orchid
Hahaha
gentle moss
idk, i guess most of my use for "work" on my PC is like
rough sapphire
i also will put the led light strips but before i do i wanna see which is better xD
dusky orchid
Found the right channel now eh
gentle moss
audio / video work
gentle moss
so landscape is definitely the way to go
rough sapphire
the 2 portrait i feel is better for productivity espicialy when im coding..
sand goblet
multimedia and games are the only things that really make use of widescreen
basically everything else works great (or better) in portrait
dusky orchid
I have 3 monitors personally. All 1440p, middle is ultrawide 32", sides are 27". All are dell ultrasharps.
sand goblet
yeah mine are Dell as well
dusky orchid
Ye boi
rough sapphire
my monitors all 1080p
dusky orchid
wet steppe
I splitscreen and have 2 windows in portrait
sand goblet
dat default wallpaper
gentle moss
chonky boy bezels there
dusky orchid
Yeah it was just after an install :)
dusky orchid
Also for ultrasharps these are thin lol
sand goblet
I have three dell U2417H monitors
dusky orchid
Nice
sand goblet
those are the 24-inch ultrasharps
wet steppe
thicc
rough sapphire
noic3e
dusky orchid
Ips panels best for colour.
gentle moss
ahhhhhhhhhhh, it's not the bezel is it
wet steppe
the best TN are getting decent these days
gentle moss
that's the black border on the screen
rough sapphire
i got va panles and the 24" is lcd
dusky orchid
Technically it's a bezel. But not physical
sand goblet
yeah, it's not the bezel
dusky orchid
Blended
gentle moss
yeah
rough sapphire
asus monitors with TN panles are great
gentle moss
i wont use TN again
dusky orchid
I still count it as bezel though
gentle moss
IPS or bust
sand goblet
the actual bezels are about credit card thick
dusky orchid
So expense though. Fuck man these were 1300 all up
gentle moss
not the technical bezel
dusky orchid
AUD ofc
gentle moss
i get mine from a refurb place
dusky orchid
Nice
wet steppe
I go for TN cos I want 144hz
sand goblet
the funny thing is that the tech specs state that the screens have capacitive touch controls
they do not
dusky orchid
Yeah I'd need stands. I dooooo want a good mount one day but they're so expense
wet steppe
I can't afford both 144 and IPS
sand goblet
that's pretty expensive
dusky orchid
Th se days ips with 1440 can be cheap man
gentle moss
but they're SO GOOD
sand goblet
lemme see what I got
dusky orchid
For the same price I bought mine at, I could now get a set of 144hz of the same stock
pine vector
i went TN because games. it was a hard decision though, comparing the dell ultras. so pwetty.
sand goblet
well as you can see, these are £20
sand goblet
how long ago was that?
dusky orchid
They've done a shitload of improvement regarding colour reproduction in TNS these days
gentle moss
like 3-4 years
dusky orchid
I think there's still a good middleground though.
What's those new ones?
Not TN or ips
sand goblet
according to keepa they only went up to like £32
pine vector
it was an adjustment in the beginning when i switched to TN. had some eye strain until i got used to it, and dialed in the colors.
sand goblet
rough sapphire
my mounts are the exact same design but from a deferent company
gentle moss
OLED scrag?
dusky orchid
VA I think it is.
gentle moss
ah
dusky orchid
No not oled
That would be lovely. But way too expense. Also oled is still a type of led
TVs are best for using oled perhaps.
gentle moss
¯_(ツ)_/¯
dusky orchid
Watching it atm tbh
gentle moss
that explains my distorted view of price
dusky orchid
Just look at pricing 10 years ago
wet steppe
VA has terrible ghosting
gentle moss
the first decent LCD i got was uhhh
wet steppe
worst case scenario VA can be unplayable
gentle moss
16:10 Asus or something with 2ms grey to grey
dusky orchid
I agree but it can be worse with certain ips, apex
gentle moss
was like £200
dusky orchid
It's stillr relatively middle ground for certain budgets.
gentle moss
and it had serious ghosting problems
dusky orchid
A huge amount of TVs that came out even two years ago had terrible ghosting problens
It's neither an old or new issue.
wet steppe
ghosting is a big oof for gaming
dusky orchid
Yeah
gentle moss
yeah fucking tell me about it
dusky orchid
Also for sports watching
wet steppe
I wouldn't mind it as much for TV
gentle moss
such a high contrast game as well so it was SO obvious
dusky orchid
My dad has one that ghosts like nothing else.
wet steppe
Fortnite requires insane reactions cos of the silly building mechanic
need best fast visuals possible
dusky orchid
But you know
It's still better than rear projection tvs
Hahaha
They were honestly the worst
wet steppe
the building mechanic gave fortnite a really high skill floor
compared to most FPS games
you can't really win consistenly without building
gentle moss
no, i'm not
dusky orchid
Haha
It doesn't matter if something is the fastest though. If it's fast enough to make these stats an issue it's still relevant.
wet steppe
wow yeah that game would be so bad with ghosting
gentle moss
yup
dusky orchid
I don't game personally but I can understand the issues people bring up
dusky orchid
Lol always keep in mind relative experience
Everyone is different and fast is a relative measure
gentle moss
those who forget history are doomed to not realise how weak sauce they are
wet steppe
I actually prefer really slow like Arma 3
dusky orchid
Sure but gotta keep in mind averages and to not make the extremes the expectations :)
wet steppe
or the slower-paced battlefield games
gentle moss
which one?
dusky orchid
All
gentle moss
ah, fair
dusky orchid
Ofc same goes with cod
gentle moss
i thought BF:1942 / BF:V and BF2 were good
dusky orchid
Similar game types
gentle moss
only good CoD was CoD4
pine vector
haha. i went and played BF3 the other night, after a month of titanfall 2. lord it was slow...
gentle moss
that was quite fast
dusky orchid
I hear that a lot
dusky orchid
Titanfall I actually hear better things
pine vector
BF2 Bad Company is still my fav.
gentle moss
BC2 was great fun, i loved it
dusky orchid
But for some reason it feels smaller
gentle moss
NS2000 snipe people from across the map
dusky orchid
Lol bisk
wet steppe
BF:I best one
gentle moss
hard disagree. not that i didn't enjoy playing some of it
they made the game modes feel pretty big / epic
gentle moss
BF:V was my favourite from like, a fun point of view
wet steppe
BF:V is really good yeah
gentle moss
they licensed era appropriate music to put in the game
wet steppe
have you tried BF5
gentle moss
and you could put it on in the jeep / helicopter radios
wet steppe
BF5 is very different to the others
pine vector
that's my biggest gripe with BF3. air is too hard to counter... but, i suck at flying anyway. 😄
gentle moss
i remember sitting guarding a capture point and in the background i just hear Trashmen - Surfin' Bird get louder and louder and louder
then all of a sudden this jeep jumps over my head
wet steppe
BF3 and BF4 were very unbalanced in favor of air yeah
gentle moss
fucking 4 people pour out of it
trashmen still playing as i try to defend the point
pretty cool
dusky orchid
I'm such a casual gamer compared to you wierdo fps players
Lol
Gimme Ori over bf any day
wet steppe
I'm not really an FPS gamer
I mostly play RTS
dusky orchid
RTS seems the type of game I'd play when I was younger. But I never got to use a PC until I was in late high school
My parents were assholes
gentle moss
i can't hack RTS games, just not good at them. i played CNC3 for a bit, but my mate was a high ranking player who just told me all the good build orders
dusky orchid
What's CNC?
gentle moss
Command and Conq
pine vector
yeah, i grew up on FPSes. i tend to stick to them. i enjoy some of the large world titles though. Halflife was a great series (had enough FPS to keep me interested).
wet steppe
Halflife has a weird cult around it now
pine vector
Duke, prob.
dusky orchid
Fair
wet steppe
but I only ever used the Win95
dusky orchid
Nice
dusky orchid
Did anyone see that doom remake
Pretty sure it was textures mainly
Was damn nice looking
gentle moss
yeah they upped the texture res
id software were so good at open sourcing their shit
loved that ethos
dusky orchid
I tried to have a look at the YouTube vids of it
They're all gone
Been pulled
No idea why
I'm a little worried copywriting got involved
gentle moss
it's possible
f.ex Quake 3 is open source completely
but the assets are not
so the same is probably true for all other titles
dusky orchid
Maybe. But in this case all the assets were original creations.
sand goblet
wonder if anyone's made python bindings for an id engine
gentle moss
probably not? idk
dusky orchid
I still am unsure about python being used for gaming.
gentle moss
definitely anything latency sensitive
dusky orchid
C/C# I think is preferred
vestal briar
What does the remake look like?
dusky orchid
Ill find an image if I can
vestal briar
I mean godots propriatery language is decently python-like
dusky orchid
vestal briar
I'm assuming they modded the engine?
summer rampart
there's Python bindings for Godot
dusky orchid
I had a look and it's indeed Bethesda's legal team that squashed it. Shame.
vestal briar
I wonder what is the most complex game made with a modded quake engine
gentle moss
since id Software became a Bethesda developer
they squashed the practice
which is a real shame
vestal briar
:/
gentle moss
because it's what lead to a lot of modding in the early days
vestal briar
A ton of games where made with the old engines
gentle moss
id Software was very keen on community modding
Call of Duty is still loosely based on the Quake 3 engine
gentle moss
early CoD's used the engine with minor mods
vestal briar
gentle moss
but they built on it so much it's barely recognisable now
vestal briar
Yeah
gentle moss
id Software was a technology company above all else imo
vestal briar
Do you think any code has been left intact at this point?
gentle moss
oh sure
vestal briar
I'm not sure about game engines, what part would be the least updated?
Poly rendering core?
gentle moss
for example Half-Life / the modern Source engine still uses Quake 1 user input code
vestal briar
user input code?
vestal briar
Oh
gentle moss
Quake based engines all have the same or similar "mouse feel" and sensitivity settings
frosty berry
python is used extensively by some games, there is still the old example of Eve online
there are also the panda3D games, the engine was sponsored/developped by disney then open sourced, and python is a first class citizen there
vestal briar
And bf2 used it heavily
gentle moss
well i run a quake server Owez
vestal briar
Networking and mods
gentle moss
and installing is pretty easy these days
frosty berry
in kivy we have kivent, which is a 2D entity/component system, and a few people built games with that
vestal briar
I shall see then
Intresting, looks like there are 2 lines of development for call of duty
The iw x engine
And a forked call of duty: black ops x engine
vestal briar
What quake should I download?
vapid bluff
thats the engine the jedi knight games used too right?
vapid bluff
best engine ever
vapid bluff
could be revived with some graphics upgrades
sand goblet
have you guys played sauerbraten?
this
still has an active community six years after the latest release
gentle moss
interesting
sand goblet
and still has recent commits
you're kind of expected to compile it yourself unfortunately
it's quake-like but designed with modding and creation in mind
including an editor and even multiplayer editing, a gamemode known as coopedit
they even made an rpg with it lol
some other things based on cube 2 are tesseract (a fork including HDR lighting and such) and the platinumarts sandbox
of course, someone even did this https://www.sandboxgamemaker.com/ds-sandbox-make-a-game-modern-city-builder-edition/
frosty berry
i did play it a bit a few years ago, it was quite fast

frosty berry
i played urban terror a bit too, was nice
oh, and nexuiz

remember my gf lost her keys?
sand goblet
No, but go on
gentle moss
well she lost her keys and had to scrap the car and buy a new one
she just found her keys in the corner of the living room behind all her photography equipment
tulip palm
oh well :D
gentle moss
old car was literally about to die
sand goblet
haha, that's something
frosty berry
scrap the car because the keys are lost? oO
i guess it was really worth nothing anymore, or it would have been more covenient to just open it and change the lock
gentle moss
i mean, the car was gonna die in like 3-4 months
leaking oil, suspension falling apart
all sorts
plus it was filthy and dented
however i did have to break into it to get all her stuff out
i do enjoy breaking into cars
with permission
did it with a bit of string $$$

I banned a guy on another server for having the black sun symbol as their avatar yesterday

Any time I point it out they are annoyed of me being a backseat mod
Ok why did nazi germany just steal all of the cool evil dictator flags :(
The only evil one we have left is Amsterdams
The star wars empire has an evil one also
¯_(ツ)_/¯
sand goblet
Get your own evil flag!
vestal briar
How to make an evil flag?
It has to be aligned, semi-symetrical with red, black and white as the main colours with recognisable/distinct shapes
Soviet-type flags are not that evil imo, the colours are too friendly
rough sapphire
anything thats a black and white flag with like straight harsh lines just looks it could be a nazi flag, like if i was shown a flag like that and had to guess id guess nazi
vestal briar
Yeah
With that black sun flag (never seen before), my first reaction was a cool evil flag that looks starwars-ey
rough sapphire
when you google black sun flag the 8th image result says "Fyon Star Wars Star Trek fans banner Black Sun Flag" lol
vestal briar
Intresting
rough sapphire
the things in the top left look like people hung on posts so i would guess yes
rough sapphire
i knew the french were evil kappa 
apparently this is londons flag which is pretty fucking boring
essex's flag is a bit better, i recognise this, didnt know it was a flag tho
vestal briar
Nah
Too detailed
And it has it's symbol duplicated x3
It's like having 3 welsh dragons on the welsh flag..
A modified iom flag could look pretty evil
rough sapphire
"referred to the Anglo-Saxons bearing a standard of "Three seaxes argent, in a field gules" so i guess the 3 has a meaning at least
vestal briar
Looks pretty bad though :/

We just sent notice that we are terminating 8chan as a customer effective at midnight tonight Pacific Time. The rationale is simple: they have proven themselves to be lawless and that lawlessness has caused multiple tragic deaths. Even if 8chan may not have violated the letter of the law in refusing to moderate their hate-filled community, they have created an environment that revels in violating its spirit.
While removing 8chan from our network takes heat off of us, it does nothing to address why hateful sites fester online. It does nothing to address why mass shootings occur. It does nothing to address why portions of the population feel so disenchanted they turn to hate. In taking this action we've solved our own problem, but we haven't solved the Internet's.
Interesting, I had no idea 8chan would have been involved in something like that
vestal briar
Are cloudflare pulling https?
Ah that's good; should have been done way sooner
Fucking extremist incels
vestal briar
Oh jeez i'm sorry to offend the neo-nazis and/or mentally loose and/or everything else extremist
sand goblet
haha
vestal briar
There's probably one sane place on 8chan but the trend isn't good
Jesus their twitter is < 18 and just has a naked woman and some blooded skulls
sand goblet
iirc they have an entire board for leaking nudes of cosplayers
vestal briar
I wonder what the demographics are
Like of normal human beings vs most of em..
I mean a social media that is infamous for promoting hatred and mass shootings doesn't tend to be packed with the most functioning of people
sand goblet
I imagine some people just avoid those boards
vestal briar
Yeah
There will of course be normal boards that are moderated but a decent chunk are very dark, incel or anime/hentai
sand goblet
I mean, there's nothing specifically wrong with anime/hentai, lol
vestal briar
And holy shit there is a massive incel forum and reading all messages on it is depressing :/
Yeah but that usually isn't what builds a great community unless you are a porn website 😅
vestal briar
Like the cross-polination affect of how we don't allow memes here

Why would somebody put a hand in there?!
shell raptor
For size comparison.
wet steppe
but hands can be different sizes
shell raptor
The aluminum wire itself is about 1mm in diameter, so its cross-sectional area is about 0.785 mm^2, which is about 3 times less than is required.

i am fuming i spent ages filling out this job application and at the bottom it says you have to be 21 or over 
summer rampart
good reminder to read the application before filling it out
rough sapphire
i read it and on it they even said 16-17 year old wages, so i was like oh great theyre accepting like real beginner kind of people but no
they never said i had to be 21 
ive also never seen any job say you have to be 21, 18 yeah but 21 wow
i turned 18 and i was so excited to be applying for the big boy jobs but apparently i cant even work at greggs
gentle moss
there can be reasons
for example it can be hard to insure someone under 21 in a company car
we've got a company van and only 3 of the 6 of us can drive it
cause everyone else is under 25
vestal briar
But that's insurance not employment
gentle moss
no, but if the job may require the person to drive a company car....
vestal briar
Being 18 isn't a disability though
gentle moss
i'm uhh... not sure what your point is?
rough sapphire
^
rough sapphire
if you cant get insured to workj there then like you cant work there
vestal briar
"finantial services" is very ambiguous
gentle moss
it's not discrimination if the job has a requirement for being able to drive
vestal briar
Could swing both ways
vestal briar
But that's not age
rough sapphire
like i applied to work at a farm when i was 16 and they didnt let me because they couldnt insure under 16s to work with the animals or something like that
gentle moss
and not discrimination
gentle moss
^
vestal briar
18 is an adult
rough sapphire
and
gentle moss
we don't employ people who don't have driver licenses
because they need to visit sites
even in their own vehicle
vestal briar
The Equality Act 2010 includes provisions that ban age discrimination against adults in the provision of services and public functions. The ban came into force on 1 October 2012 and it is now unlawful to discriminate on the basis of age unless:
- the practice is covered by an exception from the
- good reason can be shown for the differential treatment (‘objective justification’)
its not purely age based tho, itll be because they literally cant
gentle moss
we also can't employ under 18's for certain reasons
wet steppe
against adults
vestal briar
Again, this is about age not that you have a drivers license
gentle moss
due to some working environments
vestal briar
18 is an adult..
wet steppe
I came late to this convo lol
vestal briar
Not talking about underage, that's a whole other subject
rough sapphire
Owez it'll be because they cannot employ under 21s
gentle moss
i still feel you're missing the point though owez
rough sapphire
they dont have the insurance to
gentle moss
if a job requires a certain age
wet steppe
yeah I think its illegal
to have minimum age on a job
that is over 18
wet steppe
okay yeah if that is the case
vestal briar
But insurance isn't covered under the exceptions
gentle moss
uhhh, it is
vestal briar
Unless it's the financial services that is blurry
gentle moss
- good reason can be shown for the differential treatment (‘objective justification’)
"sorry we can't employ you because we can't insure you in the workplace"
is fine
vestal briar
Woo a catch all law
gentle moss
that's
not
how
it
works
-.-
don't make me blow my brains out with an eye roll
vestal briar
If you get enough lawyers and you can twist that law any whay you want ¯_(ツ)_/¯
gentle moss
that is not how it works
rough sapphire
Owez, your employers need to ahve the insurance for you to work there, like i said, the farm couldnt get insurance for under 18's, theres probably something they want me to do at this job meaning they cant get insurance for under 21s
gentle moss
i'm just gonna whip out the whole "fuck you i'm 30" thing in a second
fuckin weans
:P
vestal briar
Ok then
vestal briar
Why is insurance limited to > 21s?
gentle moss
it varies from workplace to workplace
rough sapphire
because it depends on what youre working with
vestal briar
So they could just give you a job but they're cheap barstools about it?
gentle moss
i'm the only one with the balls and insurance to do it in our company
vestal briar
Mhm
rough sapphire
theyre not choosing to
gentle moss
imagine we send up our 19 year old apprentice up that ladder
vestal briar
So why so?
rough sapphire
^
gentle moss
we're open to a massive lawsuit
plus no insurance to cover it
so it'll cost the COMPANY shit loads
vestal briar
Why is insurance sometimes limited to > 21
gentle moss
BECAUSE INSURANCE COMPANIES
rough sapphire
because it depends on what youre working with
plucky ridge
Some machinery requires a license, and some licenses can only be acquired with a certain age
gentle moss
shit, i worked at one place that purchased a landrover for bad weather to get to locations
plucky ridge
i.e. certain powered forklifts and the like
gentle moss
insurer wouldn't cover anyone under 30
gentle moss
that's because you don't understand insurance companies maybe?
vestal briar
Get out of the cafe!
plucky ridge
Insurance agencies are basing a lot of it on numbers
gentle moss
lower age = higher risk = higher premiums or the insurance company will simply reject it
rough sapphire
its not "dont like" its a safety thing
vestal briar
I'm just winding you up now
plucky ridge
The likely hood of someone having an accident due to their own negligence is higher around that 16-25 age range
plucky ridge
So they don't want to take that kind of chance
vestal briar
Yes yes maturity

Only the last 3 messages where winding up ones

gentle moss
we've explained already
vestal briar
What's the exeption with them?
rough sapphire
the company has to get insurance for you to work there
wet steppe
BinGang doesn't discriminate
you can jump in at any age

if they cant get insurance for your age they wont take you

gentle moss
source: my gf has worked in the industry for 8 years
plucky ridge
Are you asking working there or living there
vestal briar
Living
plucky ridge
Yeah, usually it's the minimum age to retire
vestal briar
Intresting
rough sapphire
its a different insurance to having to work there
plucky ridge
But of course there's other factors
Federal funding, health, etc.
It's all a headache
rough sapphire
since you know entering a shop is different to working with food and like bisk said climbing ladders
plucky ridge
True, Apex
And there's people who managed to retire in their 30's
But I'm talking like
Average expected
gentle moss
and yeah, as a member of the public walking into a supermarket
if you slip and fall
fuck your spine
they have public liability insurance
rough sapphire
You basically have to pay a lot of thing to make sure if someone gets hurt in any way because of your place, you aren’t getting your ass sued
That goes for both staff and people entering, but they’re two separate insurances

they key point is it's not age discrimination to not employ someone because you can't insure them for the job they're applying for

So if I tried to live in a retirement home (pretend I am 40, below the 65 age cutoff), what legal grounds do they have to stop me?

I just wish they had told me before I spent ages filling out the application

Possibly health requirements. Requiring certain medical signoffs or something?

Drugs are one of the easiest things to make money from if you’re the supplier and pass to the dealers, if you get caught tho it’s bye bye

And their very light weight, as Sheri Fresonke Harper mentioned, also contributes to rapid jerky motion. You might also say that we heavy animals move smoothly because it's so easy for us. With more mass it takes more energy to make abrupt twitchy movements, so we tend to gradually accelerate and decelerate our limbs, resulting in graceful movements.
so if humans evolved on a planet with less gravity would we be as twitchy as well? 🤔
frosty berry
the ability to move that fast could be pretty handy sometime
vapid bluff
i came across this while trying to find the answer to another question actually
wondering why birds keep pausing after every movement for like half a second
is it just to check for danger?
frosty berry
their eyes might have some limitations like us, we have to stop moving them to actually see
and give our brain time to process what we see
i know there are some animals/insects that move so fast it looks like they teleport accross 10-20cm, but they have to stop just to observe where they are, they can't possibly process while in motion, it's just too fast
forgot the name of the thing though
vapid bluff
was it a spider by any chance?
frosty berry
possible, though i'm not sure
vapid bluff
iirc there's this spider that spends ages calculating its path before moving
frosty berry
it's been a long time i saw that

It's a joke, the second row is not on matlab's website
rough sapphire
No you shouldn’t have edited, rat lab was better
frosty berry
😂 yeah it was a funny typo
rough sapphire
But yeah it’s not actually there, their only point on the site is really that you need to actually learn stuff to be able to use python lol
“Beginners start by learning advanced programming constructs.” Ah yes the advanced print(“hello world”)
frosty berry
I konw engineers and scientists that have wanted to do the switch to python for a long time, just had to much legacy code to do so
rough sapphire
I can’t really speak tho, we were taught “how to think like a programmer” before we actually moved into python and such so maybe it’s harder than I think (probably not as hard as they’re making it out to be )
frosty berry
Well, their piles of money living depends on us believing that, so yeah, they would exagerate anyway.
Hm, how do you strike here
rough sapphire
I think it’s common sense to take what most companies say and dial it down by anywhere between 30 and 70%

I remember one time
I had a hamburger. I dove my teeth into it's soft buns. The meat was so juicy. I couldn't stop. I dove deeper. I found something. Something cold to the teeth. Tomato. I put my mouth over it and crunched it. It exploded in my mouth. Ahh it was soooo good. The buns were nice and warm and I moved my tongue around inside the burger so i could get all of the sauces. Mmmmm. I found the lettuce and started munching on it. Ahh this was so good.

I had a bath. I dove my feet into its welcoming bubbles. The water was so juicy. I couldn't stop. I dove deeper. I found something. Something cold to the teeth. Drain. I put my mouth over it and crunched it. It exploded in my mouth. Ahh it was soooo good. The drainsludge was nice and warm and I moved my tongue around inside the drain so I could get all of the sauces. Mmmmm. I found the toenail and started munching on it. Ahh this was so good.

@tulip imp I think Lemon topped you.

I had a bath
I placed my right foot into the tub. Immediately, the bubbles start making my ankle tingle. It was making me go in deeper. So I did. Up until the water was at my neck, I lay in there. The water was touching every creves of my body and it felt so good. It went in everywhere. The soapy water slipped off of me as I got out and noticed a toenail on the floor. I picked it up, and the bubbles still on my body when bezerk. I picked up the toenail and placed it in my mouth. I crunched on it. The flavour was amazing. The toenail split into 4 and exploded in my mouth. I got dressed and never told anyone about my experience
