discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

Caleb played poorly, for sure. But no stupid fumbles or interceptions are a plus.
I don't like the Bears, either, but their defense could be great. Special teams looked good, too. (makes me sad as a Packers fan)
I didn't watch Hard Knocks at all, and that's what people seem to be mad about him for.

To be fair the hype surrounding him is just way to much, the throws he missed during the titans game were throws he can make, I just chopped it up to rookie nervousness.

I don't agree that stories where the hero wins easily are appealing to kids, even young kids. I agree that many modern writers seem to think that though. Granted the extent of "punishment" heroes in really young kids' stories get is usually mild, like getting scared or exhausted, but they'll get bored too if the show is just the hero never encountering any hardship.

Take any (good) Disney movie as an example for older kids though. Snow White - she has to run away from home, live in the woods outside her comfort zone and eventually gets poisoned. Lion King - Simba's dad is murdered, he has to run away and grow up with strangers and no parents, and eventually returns to kill Claudius Scar. Kids don't remember these characters for always winning, they remember them for their heroic qualities being displayed in the face of adversity.

The traditional Hero's Journey! But, exactly, you had to have a conflict, otherwise, it's not appealing.

If you have a general memory of the first one, it's not necessary to see it again. They don't go into tiny details that you need to recall to enjoy it.

Thank you very much, I'm organizing to go this week.

Been working on something for the past hour without saving, and my computer froze. I hate this piece of shit.

Sorry for you. Ctrl + S is something I learned to do every few clocks in my mind.

RIP to James Earl Jones. So many great roles but a personal favorite was the King of Zamunda encouraging his son to "sow his royal oats".

Just realized I forgot to add the intro before my quote wall. Today was an extremely long day so I don't think I'll be on long just gonna head to bed early. Bank interest will have to shift to the right

You got to hang up one of these at work. I have not heard anyone say anything good about UPS in awhile now. Sorry your work has been so demanding. Paperwork is important especially for customs, but if they are complaining about it they really do need to say what they need from you guys.

Oh I'm a big binge-watcher! What about you, do you bounce around from show to show? So far from the recs received on here I've watched Combatants will be dispatched, Golden Time, and am currently watching

and so far this one has been my favorite. All the jokes just crack me up!

That would be frustrating as hell​

yet another dance party missed cause I was snoozing. That's ok I can still have fun by myself

Love your bronze and silver picks, haven't heard of the gold medal one so I'll make sure to check it out thanks for the recommendations!

Aharen is one of my favorites of all time, so wholesome

Hope everyone else had a good day.

Generator failed, I actually had to go hunt for Ice! nothing around me...ended up going to the supermarket. Power back now though! phew.

Ugh, at least it doesn't look like the power was cut for a long time. Hope you don't have problems with eletronics or frozen goods.

Not for you, you useless sack! You never give reacts ever!

He doesn't react, though!
He's really useless. Much like Hawkeye of the Avengers

Wow, that was salvage. kkkkkkk

And I hope you can relax when going to bed. I was exausted today also, so had a little nap at the end of the afternoon.

Greetings my fellow pervonauts, just dropping in to say Hello, I must be going, I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going.
It is time to sleep and dream of exploring the hairless jungles hitherto unpenetrated.
To boldly go where no man has gone before.

Prolly not. Fortunately.

Good night @whinegummi !

That's some good news! We just hope you don't face this problem again

Clearly a "skill issue" or at least an understanding issue.

Spoiler: ~I'm stupid~

I've never understood anything calling itself a "bank" to require someone to ACTIVELY collect interest at some pre-designated point in time.

Spoiler: ~waaaiitt for it~

I'm still confused why the "collect interest" option only appears once in a five-month-timespan..?

My guess is that you were depositing before checking for the button, which resets the timer and takes the button away.

There's a reason the Hero's Journey has been a staple structure since stories were recorded, in pretty much every culture. That's not to say it's the only way you can structure a good children's story, I just happened to pick examples of it. My main point is that even kids aren't entertained when the main character starts out as the most perfect and powerful person ever and never changes or has an arc.

They've been playing Harry Potter over and over on the TV. I heard a scene, and then I heard something in my head. So, I made this...

It didn't work the way I expected it to on the site, but once I figured it out, it isn't all that difficult, just takes a few steps.

Gotta be but yeah, strange how he is m.i.a. Maybe his poor little Evil heart
couldn't take all the happy thoughts. He better show up soon or i'm sure
i'll get blamed for his "disappearance". Better get out in front of this now

Hello Bonk, I see that there has recently been an update to the game that you are in. I am looking forward to playing it.
