Ugh.

My one-and-a-half-year-old laptop is currently being serviced (Windows won't update due to problem with partition, bright blotches have developed on the screen). I'm typing this from my seven-year-old laptop that I replaced with the one being serviced, and am constantly being reminded of why I did so (runs slow as all hell compared to the SSD-equipped newer one, OS is critically corrupted, 2 of 3 USB ports are destroyed, battery is shot). And I'm dreading the likely response of "oh hey, we fixed it, but we had to format the C drive" - sure, I've got backups, but reinstalling everything is going to be a pain in the neck. Still, at least I bought the extended warranty, so I shouldn't be out of pocket.

(Also hoping I don't randomly get arrested when I come back to retrieve it. Not likely, but you never know.)

Finally fixed. After four weeks, when they said it'd take at most two. And I still have to actually go in to Bendigo to retrieve it, which is an hour by car each way. :(

Oh, well.

EDIT: Got it back.

You know, they may say that you have to keep trying until you get better at something, but it is definitely difficult to actually apply that. At least as far as writing goes. Hopefully I can be complacent in my consistent mediocrity. >_>
 
I have developed a mild dislike to Magical girls and to lesser extent Female Protagonist Quest now.
Before you bring out your pitchfork I think they're fine but they just get samey now.
They will always leads to yuri, cuddles and cute things which I like but after reading the same thing happening over and over again on several different quest and fic
It's just so disappointing I guess.

I'm kinda given up on writing to be honest, didn't have the time or energy to write although I have an idea or two that I think would be good.
Good luck on whatever you do.

Eh, my beef is more on people choosing to be a murderhobo option when it was offered, even if other better offers were there.

Eh this one too. I'm all for gaining power but if that power gets you killed, cost too much (allies, potential allies, enemies allying with each other) or really impractical (eat all the biologist to learn biology!)
Then there are those players who insist going "gray" so they can still be good but can be murderhobo when they really want.

Being a murderhobo is "traditional" in rpgs.

Why exactly? Wouldn't it be boring if you just kill everyone and everything?
 
Graypairofsocks said:
Not everyone.
Only monsters.
Few examples:
Orcs.
Goblins.
Tax Collectors.
Dragons.
Demons.
Elves.

Try Red Soul by thagguy on SV. It's a Dark Souls/PMMM crossover with Oscar as a father figure, Kyoko as his sort-of adopted daughter, and the guy from DS2 with the cool hat as his daughter's boyfriend that he really doesn't approve of because reasons. The levels of murderhobo are definitely toned down from canon Dark Souls, there is a significant lack of yuri, and cuddling tends to be few and far between.

I'll give it a read, thanks for the recommendation
 
Most recent memorable dreams I had were being a sex slave for Daleks and playing a Slaaneshi cultist in a 40k MMO.

...What kind of dreams do you have?

Well, I don't remember most of them; it's not as if I keep a dream diary. Usually very complicated ones, sometimes more like a story than an experience (the one with Daleks was actually two characters, the Doctor and Master I think, being the Dalek sex slaves; while POV shifted, "I" wasn't really in it).

I had a recurring dream about violently killing things (Sugou Nobuyuki, my mother, bullies at school) for a while, but it seems to have gone away a few months ago.
 
I...
Uh, honestly, most of my dreams are just having a video game that doesn't exist or some sort of story that I always forget.
