:lol



So I think I am going to download and watch the View Askew movies tonight. I made a reference to one of them this morning and my coworker didn't get it. SHE'S NEVER SEEN THEM.




How is that possible?
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Clerks. Mall Rats. Chasing Amy. Dogma. Jay and Silent B(l)ob Strike Back, Clerks 2, and apparently there's a Mall Rats 2 coming out.

I agree with Chasing Amy... But think Mall Rats edges out Dogma...

Question... and I don't want to sound like an asshole or anything... but is it traditional for groomsmen to pay for their own tux rental? I have a childhood friend who is getting married in October. I was originally under the impression that the wedding was going to be very casual... like the wedding party as going be in jeans and shit. I can hang with that. Today, the bride messaged myself and another groomsman a link to the tux rental and the shoes they want us wearing. I can handle spending $50 on the shoes... but I really cannot afford $230 for a suit rental.

I contacted her and I feel like shit for it but I told her I don't think I will be able to afford spending almost $300 for all this. She said they'll help out a bit and we can figure all that out when it gets closer.


Am I an asshole?

I would agree and lucky you're not a bridesmaid.  I've had to foot a bill for >$1000 when my missus was a bridesmaid after dress, hair, makeup etc........

I try and arrange to be busy around the time of any prospective weddings  :lol

Apparently she, the bride, spoke with the groom's parents a put my situation  (I also need to arrange rides to and from the rehearsal dinner and wedding and whatever else. Apparently they said none of it is an issue. They will make sure I'm there and part of it. Whether its the money or rkde or anything. Not to worry. I am considered family in their book.


Seriously brought a tear to my eye.

It really touched me deeply too because since my dad died (going on six years now) I've felt as if I've had no family.  Literally the entirety of my adult life I've felt like this. People have told me, regarding the wedding, that I shouldn't care yada yada. If I can't make it oh well. Honestly I wouldn't forgive myself if I missed it.

Still more programming. I'm currently programming enemies to only trigger once you go within a certain boundary, so they're not all roaming you from the start. I also fixed a collision mesh so the enemies can come out of their pods without getting stuck.

Getting close to done now! :blob:

I'm not sure it will be of interest to you, although hopefully someone finds it interesting!
Either way, it's been a fun learning experience and has got me motivated to get back into working on my other game I've had in the works for years now.

That might be a little niche. :lol

Although a game of Zydar killing and burying hookers sounds like something I would play.

I'll keep that in mind. It will probably require a VR headset though. I really want the player to see the look of terror in the victim's eyes for an immersive and authentic experience.
