"The gentleman doth protest too much, methinks." I have empathy for those that I deem deserve it but I cant stand opportunistic attention seekers, which he is, imo. Any second now I expect him to be trotted out to a presser with Lisa Bloom or similar.

Psst, the entire "me too" movement is based on that. But Im sure the 5 second grope he endured damaged him for life. smh.

Huh, kooky. I can only assume Obs had some telemetrics showing that players were severely abusing Rest spam for the sole purpose of chain summoning all their figurines at once, for approximately 30-45 seconds at a time.

TBH, Im embarrassed for him. Yes yes, were all equally delicate flowers the nobody has the right to touch without permission, but jeez, he really sounds like a wimp whos trying to piggyback on the "me too" movement or whatever. Toughen up from that 5 second grope, Mr. Crews. smh.

Have any other "per rest" abilities or items been given charges? Do they persist through Rest? The link I provided was a little sketchy. Some figurines show a "duration" (ie: 20 sec for the spider) while others do not. Unless noted, do they persist until killed?

Are figurines 1/per rest items?

I caught up on the 2 hour season finale of The Expanse and it was fantastic. Im really battling the temptation to spoil the hell out of myself and go read the synopsis's (

Condolences Bartimaeus.

Isnt it basically the Canadian version of Starbucks? Plus you can win phat loot by rolling up the rim!

You two should meet up for some Tim Horton's or something.

Generally speaking, "teaching the company a lesson" will fail. Nobody is irreplaceable and you can bet that theres someone else who would be happy to have your position. By all means, if youre unhappy and have an alternative job, you should go. I just dont want to see you shoot yourself in the foot because you are angry.

So, git gud?

I thought you were pointing out the benefit of the US dollar being the "reserve currency". My point is that the benefit amounts to around 100B in lower "borrow costs", which is hardy any offset to our trade deficit.

Are you referring to reserve currency? Assuming the link is correct, that's worth around 100B.

Do we have a trade surplus with any country?

Aye, we would both benefit from stopping trading with each other.

Oh noes, that would be a real loss for the US?

Behold the solution to all the worlds beer pumping problems.

Heh, I just watched that video (with lyrics) on YouTube. "But mad dogs and Englishmen Go out in the midday sun" BTW, you Brits are hard to understand when you talk fast!

Probably a case of the "telephone game" where everything becomes distorted over time and retelling of the story. Im not sure if this link is any more accurate: Orde Wingate: Eccentricity in Action. For example, that link claims the alarm clock thing was:

Googled up her artwork, very nice! Good luck and all that jazz.

Interesting. Besides the climate, I believe Florida is a retirement destination for two reasons; 1) No state income tax 2) a $25000 homestead exemption.

They must be here under visa or green card. I don't think one can simply walk into Mordor land in Miami international airport and chill out for the rest of their lives.

I don't think an "immigrant" is supposed to float along indefinitely. Its a transitional period to becoming a citizen. At least Im not aware of anyplace where you can just immigrate to some country and then do nothing about citizenship and live there for the rest of your life.
