They’re millionaires, so they just don’t care… They’re nice enough though, and at least they’re quiet and respectful any other time.

Going to copy my post over from the original for anyone wondering why:
I watched a few minutes of it and finally got to it… If I got it right, the guy suing them wanted to make a mod with guns. Mojang said no and got it shut down. He’s suing because he believes a company shouldn’t have any say over how users might modify their games.

We used to be that until some dumbass I’m our company fucked up our insurance plan. $20 for total telecare, it was awesome.
- Comment on THIS is true wisdom 2 weeks ago:
Our company has a policy that if you’re sick for 2 days or more, you have to have a doctors note to return. So faking sick comes with a price tag for me. Also, any time I’ve ever joked about being sick, I actually end up sick. I’ll just call around and get someone to cover for me, then tell my supervisor I’m taking a personal day instead of earning some bad karma.

I got chewed out on reddit once for being “cheap” because I said tip before the tax. Guy was super pissed over what amounts to a difference of cents. Went off on a huge rant belittling me like I admitted to murdering puppies…
Like… Dude, if your whole life comes crashing down over a difference of 40¢, to the point that’s your reaction, maybe there’s a much bigger problem going on here?

Exactly, it literaly says in Control’s wiki, “inspired by paranormal stories about the fictional SCP Foundation.” I didn’t know the genre is now called “New Weird” though. I have some new authors to check out.
- Comment on If you were born after 1990, you've never had this experience 3 weeks ago:
The SCP Foundation is a secret organization dedicated to securing, containing, and protecting various anomalous entities. The website is an archive of top secret documents including entries for each entity, called an SCP followed by a number, containing a practical name, detailed description, the effects of the anomaly, experiments performed, containment methods, pictures, etc. Objects can be anything, benign looking household items, monsters, seemingly normal humans, etc. There’s nearly 5000 entries on the site. It’s a pretty fun time sink if you’re into short horror stories. Most of them only take a minute or two to read. There’s also multiple games, most notably SCP Containment Breach and tons of spinoff material.

- Comment on Secret of evermore has some gigeresque visuals. I should probably attempt to finish the game but here are some screenshots 3 weeks ago:
I don’t feel like the story telling was as good in Evermore. Secret of Mana grabbed me a lot more with it’s characters and it’s difficulty, and I always loved the plot despite some pretty obvious flaws. The music is still one of the best ever soundtracks too.
I think Evermore also got completely overshadowed by Chrono Trigger being released just 2 months before in the US.

- Comment on cooking question 1 month ago:
A whole typical cigarette contains around 10-12mg of nicotine. The wiki says 30-60mg is potentially fatal to an adult, but that it could potentially take as much as 500mg. So for an adult, unlikely. For a child, I see mixed things saying 1 cigarette could be fatal. This says 1-13mg per kg for an infant. So maybe, depending on the size of the butt and the child?
- Comment on cooking question 1 month ago:
So I just did a bit of research on it and according to Wikipedia and several journals it seems to be definitely possible for someone to die from nicotine poisoning. The wiki article cites two child deaths. I also found at least one article where nicotine poisoning was deemed the cause of death. Warning, it does contain shots of ther person’s dissected esophagus and their stomach contents. There’s a NLM journal article that pops up on a child committing suicide by nicotine ingestion, but the article was missing. So I can say it definitely does happen. I just couldnt find any readily available mortality studies showing how often it happens.
As for anecdotal evidence, I had a client with Pica, who would eat cigarette butts among other things and be vomiting all night.
