Yeah, but until the price of the end product goes down there's nothing to be celebrating. Americans that arn't oil companies don't buy oil barrels.

I didn't expect that you would be able to reuse games these days anyway. That surprises me that you can still do that. Thanks for explaining what the actual problem with this is.

There's a pretty big difference between holding a door for someone or buying them a drink and paying for their movie, popcorn, dinner, and gifts all when you literally just met them and then again one day later.

I didn't say he was a creep. I said he's throwing too much money at her for this situation. That implies there's something off, which could be a number of reasons. That's why I asked how old he was. If he's a young guy then he could just be inexperienced and not have a great idea of how to express his interest other than bombarding her with attention and gifts. I think most dudes have been there more or less, but it can sometimes lead to some shitty outcomes with some guys, especially immature ones that haven't got a lot of experience dealing with these emotions, if the subject of this attention doesn't meet their expectations. It's why I suggested having a conversation with him about what those expectations are and where she is at in her own feelings towards him to clear the air before he gets too invested. If he's an older guy than it becomes more suspicious as they should know better than to buy affection with gifts.

I don't care about oil prices. I care about gas and that's still higher than before this shit started.

Most people don't consume alcohol to the same level of intoxication that hard drugs provide.

Yeah if it's going allow me to relax enough to have a good time on the weekends then it is what it is. No point in living anyway if I'm not able to have a good time.

He's still breathing.

I was familiar with PS1 games doing it but hadn't seen it since then. Admittedly I haven't owned a console since the Xbox 360 and even that I only played a few games on. I was under the impression that most discs these days basically amounted to a cd key and then the actual game downloaded to the console when you tried to play it.

What disc will this game fit on? I'd like to buy a stack of them to backup my media library.

I already wear long sleeves to work.

If I knew there were bjs to be had I'd have been willing to give church a shot. The few times I went there it was just a crabby old man reading his storybook to everyone.

Of course there needs to be guidelines to to ensure things don't get out of hand but systematic violence is still violence and violence is still necessary to that extent.

I don't experience that personally. I find the constant AC blowing on me fucks me up. Being out in the hot sun feels great. Maybe I'm a reptile....

How old is this guy? Throwing that amount of money at someone you're not even involved with yet is not normal behavior. I'd take that as a red flag. Maybe he's just inexperienced or infatuated and this is his way of showing he likes you but I would be concerned about him feeling like you owe him something for it. That "crazy" (for lack of a better word) energy can go both ways. I'd definitely have a talk with him about where his head is at and where yours is if I was you.

Everyone involved should be flayed.

Just carry half your wardrobe around in and out of the office with you every day. It's common sense.

Maybe it's because treating these amoral shitheads lightly has led us where we are today. They can't be rehabilitated. They have no interest in being better people. If they're eliminated they can't come back to fuck shit up for everyone else anymore. They're fundamentally broken human beings and should be discarded.

My stupid ancestors moved here like 6 generations ago. 😞

I've never regretted staying in and banging each other senseless. Can always watch movies or something between rounds.

He still got payed.
