My brothers and I invented a game in a lot of our N64 games called "falling from high places", where you'd find the highest point of a particular map and then jump to the very bottom or as far as possible. This was extremely fun in Mario, Banjo-Kazooie, and Toy Story 2, where you could survive falling down an elevator shaft or off a lighthouse and live. Similarly it's funny when you crash the cars in Forza. |

I've done this is almost all of the Tony Hawk games. Going all over to see what highest thing I could launch off of. It's a solid way to gently caress off and not actually play the games. Which Forza? I've mostly just played Horizon 4 a bunch, and mostly just drift. I do have a couple super cars that I set for offroading and it's crazy hitting a hill at 200 and watching the car just go flying.

And Grand mountain adventure (ski and snowboard game is built on that kind of premise. It has a bunch of mountains to explore and a single button press teleports you back a short way when you mess up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9x0PNp-Gf0k

Well it's another beautiful day here in $MUNICIPALITY and I'm eating a pouch of flax oatmeal I found in the back of the pantry. Interesting thing about flax seeds: they're pretty sticky. Lots of recipes that call for eggs can use flax seeds soaked in water instead. I dreamed last night that I was at Dollywood and I had to think long and hard about whether I was going to buy cinnamon bread. For those who don't know, it's about 2 pounds of sweet dough soaked in about 1 pound of butter, then you get a side of frosting to dip it in. |

I tried to grind poppy seeds in a mortar because I hate my wrists. Supposedly they taste better ground, but I couldn't tell the difference. |

roomforthetuna posted:Thing I learned about flax seeds - if you have ground flax seeds for this purpose it goes rancid after not very long, so now I have whole flax seeds and a pestle and mortar. It also turns out that flax seeds are significantly tougher than most things you smash with a pestle and mortar. (Chia seeds, too, are remarkably sturdy.) Another interesting thing about flax seeds is they will pass entirely unmolested through your digestive system if they aren't somehow crushed or split first. So to get the nutrition from them, crushing them up is important. |

My ninjutsu teacher had us oil up our broom handles with it for that reason. Cool guy. Later saw him on TV playing with a taiko ensemble. Guess he was pretty into japanese culture. I don't really remember anything he taught us, but I definitely remember the magic hand signs I learned in my ninjutsu book on my own time. |

Flax seed oil is good for your joints and you don't have to burp up fish oil.

I'm in the mood for coffee and blueberries. I tried some of TinyDoom's while drinking coffee and it was a good mix to eat a couple then take a sip.

I work remote, but one of my co-workers just happened to be in my city today, so we had breakfast together and I took her of a tour of the town. Then she swung by my house and we chatted about all kinds of things. It was very nice! |

My friend was in the city last year and I talked him through the bus system to meet me and we hit some of the best spots. Dude had never had a Cubana, but then next time he was in town he was all about hitting that place up again. Good views, yums, and convo are always nice. Never worked remote though, so not sure how that goes. I'm just always happy to eat and chat with people.

Someone else got me to try Thai tea and it was good, but I still prefer coffee and tea just strong/bitter and without anything. Still grab other stuff sometimes just for a mix.

this spot isn't "chill" at all, it's full of people who are simply unable to let other people post in peace. not one of your probes has been even remotely justifiable. nobody is ruining the chill here except you. just let people post what they want to post and if you don't like it instead of hitting that probe button just, dare I say it, chill. |

you know what would be chill, is just let the guy say his piece, and if you don't like it, ask yourself if anyone is really being hurt or if you're just being an insufferable hall monitor |

this doesn't really address the very valid concerns bad guy has, and it's actually super disrespectful to dismiss them out of hand with "because i have authority". that doesn't seem like a good way to run a community, and i know you'll probably probe me for that, so be it. let people see you do it. |
