[somber halo]

drac goes everywhere in asia

[green epoch]

Traveling is fun

[somber halo]

[wet torrent]

lil guy

[somber halo]

[green epoch]

Cute

[somber halo]

i mean, my preference in female height doesnt matter

[green epoch]

I should go buy a new headset today old one broke and gives me a headache

[somber halo]

scary

[green epoch]

Pretty

Used to have steelseries years ago

Now I have a corsair headset

and it broke randomly

I like them

Comfy

[wet torrent]

one of my fav landscapes

[green epoch]

Thats so pretty

[wet torrent]

u kno where they shoot avatar stuff

[stuck copper]

look for non-gaming headsets. most of them are trash marketed towards kids.

[wet torrent]

lots of stone pillars but couldnt even see one cuz of the weather

[green epoch]

[green epoch]

[stuck copper]

they're like "gaming chairs"

big scam

the logo is worth more than the materials

[brittle wind]

Imma scam you

[green epoch]

take Arans money

[stuck copper]

not saying there aren't any good gaming-branded headsets. just make sure to read up on them before you buy anything.

exactly

well

then there's the issue of the audiophiles

who won't take anything less than hyper-expensive alien sound rock technology

[magic moon]

I had someone recommend an actual gaming chair

like an "I own one and it's great"

it was a secretlab.

[stuck copper]

there's a GN video on gaming chairs.

[green epoch]

whats wrong w secretlab

are they just bad

not worth the money?

[magic moon]

they're expensive, yeah

[green epoch]

figures

[magic moon]

OTOH, any good chair for a big guy is gonna be

[stuck copper]

not 100% sure on that company specifically, but gaming chairs are usually the same chair but with different branding

from the same factory

[green epoch]

Makes sense

[stuck copper]

except, the prices are wild

and they're actually rather bad in terms of ergonomics

just watch the vid

[magic moon]

I'm actually in the market

[stuck copper]

that being said, a really good chair will cost you an arm and a leg, so...

[green epoch]

I should probably have a better chair

my back would appreciate that

[magic moon]

the one I'm in was about $500

[wet torrent]

is that cheap?

[stuck copper]

i have a fucking ikea poäng

[green epoch]

I have a kitchen chair

thats a lotta money

more than my rent

[stuck copper]

i think the best they had at GN when they made that video was 1200

[green epoch]

Yes it is bc I live w roommates

[stuck copper]

not sure

[green epoch]

315 euros

w.e that makes in usd

360

funny enough

thats all I gotta pay for the apartment

[stuck copper]

wife pays rent, i pay switch games

[green epoch]

no water/electricity etc

it all comes w it

[green epoch]

i want a wife like that

You can replace my other roommate

the one who cleans can stay

[stuck copper]

but can you close doors?

[green epoch]

good question

can he

sounds like a deal

[stuck copper]

aran so rich, he thinks he gets a cleaner

[green epoch]

She made me oatmeal this morning

[wet torrent]

is she single

[green epoch]

No

[wet torrent]

dam

[stuck copper]

make oatmeal at night

[wet torrent]

i need someone to make me all these stuff

[stuck copper]

add frozen fruit

[green epoch]

Yeah I've tried it but I prefer my oatmeal to be warm

[green epoch]

[somber halo]

[green epoch]

Fray loves his protein shakes and powders

Fray is not smol

[wet torrent]

[stuck copper]

[green epoch]

[somber halo]

luna, sara, and sara's brother

[stuck copper]

depends on the country

some places are really bad

[green epoch]

Weirdchamp moment, never got mugged in Europe

[stuck copper]

but it's mostly places with a lot of tourism

[somber halo]

i think of europe like that one movie Taken

[green epoch]

But Finland is one of the safest countries in the world so ig that makes sense

[stuck copper]

i remember italy being super bad, but that was, like, 20 years ago.

dude

i when i was in italy

there was this road, and you could see them at the sides, left and right, just waiting for you

[green epoch]

Last year one friend from the US visited Finland and he thought we still live in the medieval age or smth

he was so worried about everything

[wet torrent]

i think i had experienced it to in france

[green epoch]

"can you use your card in finland? can you charge your phone? where do you get food? etc etc"

[stuck copper]

yeah, france has a bit of a "street life" as well

only been there for a weekend tho, so not sure. paris.

[somber halo]

i heard paris is stinky

[wet torrent]

a friend played a betting game on the street, and lost cuz they playing tricks

[stuck copper]

it was mostly illegal traders

[brittle wind]

dw you cant use your card if you come to iran

[green epoch]

[stuck copper]

they had their stash on a piece of cloth. when the police came, they just pulled some literal strings and it all wrapped up in a neat package

Dw people here will help you

[stuck copper]

but that's just me

mine is permanently ruined

[brittle wind]

[stuck copper]

kinda wearing it with pride, since i hate this fucked-up garbage system

scoring companies literally grab your data illegally.

and nobody does anything about it.

[green epoch]

[stuck copper]

thanks. i'll try.

well, it's the rules

[dense wing]

she doesnt be servant to you for your birthday too?

[stuck copper]

well

her excuse is

"i'm, your servant all year, so shut it"

and it's a good comeback, so i'll let her have that one lmao

[dense wing]

yeah woman thing..

[brittle wind]

woman issue

difference in woman

[stuck copper]

she's extra nice tho

i'm not bothered by it

15 years, dude.

says it all

not everything needs to be 100% fair and equal at all times.

would be kinda boring anyway

[dense wing]

in those cases, its always best to show some way you appreciate their sacrifice

[stuck copper]

it's almost always better to give

motives then to give back

but don't expect it

things can get toxic very quickly when you expect stuff

[green epoch]

Happy wife happy life etc etc

Wtf I sent this msg to my friend in the morning, wtf does it mean

Help

Maybe we'll get some actually interesting retrofits!

Maybe?

Idk

We just got some interesting retrofits

[stuck copper]

Must be good

Wouldnt u normally feel dry after washing in cold weather

I want kimochi

[green epoch]

Kimchi

Never tried it on my face

[wet torrent]

Which one did u buy again

Cuz last time i checked, they're "all skin type"

[green epoch]

I think they had ones for dry skin too

[wet torrent]

Ok imma try find it later

[green epoch]

[somber halo]

i hate it when my face is peeling and i dont notice it until way later

its so embarassing

[green epoch]

It will get better if you take good care of your skin

[wet torrent]

Ya my mom often got mad at me cuz of that lol

[somber halo]

my mom always used to manually straighten my back to the point where it got annoying

at least i dont got hunchback tho

nah

only my face gets overly dry for some reason

[wet torrent]

Yea girls normally do put on lotion

[green epoch]

Yeah

Touched.. A girl?

Im jealous

I wanna touch girls too

[wet torrent]

Am jelly too

[dense wing]

I dont and my hands and arms are allegedly very soft

[wet torrent]

[green epoch]

Nope i think ive hugged her once

[warm bluff]

Same

[wet torrent]

Mind sharing ur dna

[dense wing]

but I get so nervous because I dont put lotion on, what if my hands arent soft and someone touches them then they have the lasting impression that I am dry and flakey

[green epoch]

Youre not dry and flakey

[warm bluff]

I think estrogen has the effect of making skin softer

[dense wing]

it might just be a female thing to have softer skin without having lotion

[green epoch]

Yeah that's true

But you can definitely help yours with lotion

[somber halo]

I'm a guy, my skin on my body doesn't need to be smooth

[warm bluff]

I wish i could have natural soft skin

[dense wing]

most of my female friends do not have any kind of lotion routine/body butter etc and they have naturally soft skin but all the men have more course skin, so I think its just a biological thing

[somber halo]

my skin too smooth for a guy

she's hot af

[green epoch]

Thats a good thing tho?

[somber halo]

but ya kno

i need to be rough and tough

[green epoch]

No girl out there is gonna be like

[green epoch]

U DONT WANT TO

[green epoch]

Fray has a weird image of what girls want

[dense wing]

I shave my arms every day ever since I was 12 babey

[wet torrent]

Ok i need to change my lifestyle

[green epoch]

But ofc its different for everyone

[dense wing]

fray expects jojo level of man?

[warm bluff]

[green epoch]

Yeah maybe?

[dense wing]

yes everyday, when I was younger I didnt need it so often

but I get strawberry arms after a day or 2

[warm bluff]

.

[green epoch]

[somber halo]

well ya kno

[dense wing]

yeah and I am a server on mondays

im not excited at all...

[warm bluff]

I'm looking forward to vday rat stream

[dense wing]

the side I serve is the more chill side with booth seating all the couples are going to want my side..

I think that too, I really hope so

but I dont know

I always think "maybe it will be a good tip" but it never is

I had a party of 3 who ordered so much food, I even took their pics for them, they were my last table of the night

they seemed really happy with me but they gave me 3 bucks... combined

I notice at my restaurant, all our customers typically only do 10%

its really such a shame :( I bust my ass off for them and my other customers, they always HAVE to tell me how delicious the food was and how happy they are

but they leave spare cash to tip, it really stomps on one's mood

and because I have to tip out a certain % to all the chefs, they get offended too that they feel their food and labor is only worth 5 bucks out of 80 dollars made of food

[green epoch]

I think the system is also flawed, here we dont do tips bc the servers get paid enough

But yeah

People should be more considerate

[dense wing]

its very flawed, and I know people refuse to tip because they think its flawed (I want it abolished as much as the next guy, but that doesnt mean I wont tip you as a result)

[green epoch]

Yeah

Exactly

[dense wing]

I think it should at least be more custom that when people are in groups, they tip their own amount

[green epoch]

Yeah definitely

[dense wing]

I will have parties of 4 adults and somehow on one bill they leave a 6 dollar tip, so everyone gave me like 1.5 bucks combined

when my friends/coworkers and I go out, we tip, then combine the tip, its just seems so much more kinder to the server

[pearl abyss]

or just pay service staff fair wages

tipping is such an american thing lmao

[dense wing]

I dont know tbh at my place most people pay on one bill, I think its unusual, but with venmo and paypal etc its easier to repay a friend

well you want customers to go to a restaurant, get service, then go directly to the boss and say "im not tipping- how about you pay them a proper wage"
its not exactly how it works..

[pearl abyss]

Nah, there just needs to be a rudimentary change to how that particular industry works in Amarica

[dense wing]

I dont know a single person except for middle aged people that want tips to stay, everyone wants to get a wage

that doesnt mean you shouldnt tip as a result of being unhappy with that process

[pearl abyss]

be it gov intervention or spreading mindset change across f&b owners

[dense wing]

its doing more harm than good to boycott tipping

it would have to change through other means

[pearl abyss]

im not saying to boycott tipping, just saying that it needs to be doneaway with

[dense wing]

yeah its gotta go

[pearl abyss]

how much are you getting /hr btw?

[dense wing]

luckily in my state servers legally must be paid at least minimum wage and its a my issue here but my restaurant is fucking craaaazyyy my 13/h isnt worth how much I have to bend over backwards, but accumulated the tips I get in a week makes it worth it most of the time

ive been considering asking for a raise, because I dont think solely relying on tips to feel like im being paid enough is good enough in the long run

I have to take 7 tables compared to an average restaurant's 3 tables

[pearl abyss]

U$D13/h is like almost what i earn as a full time staff

god bless asian countries and low wages

[dense wing]

my state has a really high rate of homelessness so the minimum wage keeps creeping up and up over the years because we want them to be able to live

[pearl abyss]

i lived in a park before

wasnt fun

[dense wing]

[green epoch]

[somber halo]

its rewind time

[dense wing]

when I was younger I dont think I was completely homeless, but I was hopping from state to state living with family members for a little bit
also wasnt fun

[pearl abyss]

^^^

[dense wing]

im thankful for my parents' sacrifices everyday to have a roof over my head now

[pearl abyss]

you in college yet?

[dense wing]

im first year right now, trying to ride off a grant for community college to save money for a university

[pearl abyss]

nice

whatcha studying

[dense wing]

pre-med

but pre-req stage right now, this shits is so hardd

did I even need to take trigonometry?!

I want to be a medical examiner

[pearl abyss]

math is a basis for everything

i took aviation management for my diploma

had to take pre-calc and calc

[magic moon]

I got a political science degree with math through differential equations...

started working on chemistry, but discovered that -actually doing- chemistry is boring as hell

[green epoch]

Even arts needs math

Just a lil bit

[dense wing]

I think chemistry is so much easier than math I dont understand trigonometry at all.. I think im going to fail the class

[magic moon]

it took me 11 years to graduate college, but I spent 5 years of that working on anime

[somber halo]

avatar works for anime companies?

[magic moon]

I used to subtitle for a living.

Nah, we had translators who did the translation. I did scripting and the technical end

[dense wing]

I wonder how this will all play out for me, but everyday the journey to becoming medical examiner looks longer and longer

today when I was leaving my chemistry class, I heard a piano in a hallway and just ugh hurt me so bad

[somber halo]

ssame

[dense wing]

it felt like it was calling out for me, I used to play so much music when I was younger

[somber halo]

same

[dense wing]

but a job and college, I dont have time to pick up my beautiful instruments or draw

[magic moon]

It's been a weird trip, but it's not so bad. I mean, I spent a couple years in Hawaii, I've met a lot of strange and wonderful people

[dense wing]

I felt very solemn hearing the piano, I just ended up telling myself that once im done with all this school shit I can pick up my hobbies again

its a pain having so much passion

[somber halo]

same

[magic moon]

I mean, I started working on chemistry, I watched anime for a living for a while, these days I do legal data discovery

it's not as nice as watching cartoons but the money is way better!

[somber halo]

how to be useful and live life

[dense wing]

I want to become a successful vocalist, I want to play violin in large symphonies, I want to become an artist, I want to learn how to become a dancer

[pearl abyss]

dont understand it, just memorize it

[pearl abyss]

welcome to adulting

also, work life balance is a lie

[dense wing]

gosh I just barely started balancing work and life and life is actually SCHOOL so its a work school balance

[pearl abyss]

[dense wing]

[magic moon]
