What the heck… That sounds like an absolutely miserable experience. I would have done the same. It wasn’t an optional boss or anything?

Sweet Earthbound tattoo! I’m sure it catches unfamiliar people off guard. How do you explain it if they ask?

Congrats on turning that around so quickly!

That’s a great point, and I wouldn’t mind if all instances used that policy.

Came here to post something similar. I’m in my 30s but can’t resist going for a little “cart-ride” in the parking lot when going back to my car.

Interesting! So if I’m understanding correctly, the scare about YouTube stopping adblocked users was being caused by the Enhancer for Youtube extension? If so, that’s a relief.

“Piracy preserves what capitalism can’t be bothered to.”

Love that sentence, and I agree with your points that these pieces of media are available not truly “lost.” I don’t hold anything against studios/publishers not wanting to invest time to make niche ports/emulations available, especially when it won’t make them money.

Wow wasn’t expecting to see an Addie LaRue reference today! Who’s to say that the thought of “Ralph” doesn’t trigger thoughts or feelings in an individual that affects them later on today, later on this week, etc. I agree it’s a beautiful sentiment.

P.S. That’s probably my favorite book I’ve read in the last few years.

It is! But it’s a bit sad we have to think about it.

I’m sure the next few days before the surgery are going to be tough emotionally for both of you. It sounds like your SO likely doesn’t realize how worried they are or how much it’s affecting them, but giving them a little space is a good move.

Try not to beat yourself up for getting upset - it’s a perfectly normal reaction, especially in a stressful situation like this. Luckily there’re a few days before the procedure so you can hopefully discuss it and be supportive of each other. This internet stranger is sending love!
