    Damn, that sucks.

    Do customers get annoyed at you for apparently not following the deals only to realize they read the sign wrong? Like it's not everything is 70% off, the sign specifically says "Up to 70% off."

    Cause yeah, that's probably the most annoying thing in retail learning that over half the customers apparently lost their ability to read.

    Here we fucking go

    I'm so hyped man, they blew it out of the water with four months notice, can't wait to see what they can do with more time.

    Another week, another chapter of OPM redraw, another rise in my growing sense that this series really doesn't get what it's about any more.

    I think I should stop commenting on this, I'm just being a buzzkill. :/

    Giant in the Playground has been kind of meh for me for years, but I will say it really hit it out of the park with the current page. And encapsulated why I dislike fantasy gods.

    Edit: aaaaand I almost peed myself reading today's XKCD. ^_^

    Having read it, it feels very flat. Rather dull, even.

    Yeah, objectively cool stuff is happening but it just feels very weightless to me.

    None of this feels like matters. It has none of the gravitas of the original, there's no sense of drama.

    But anyhow, I will cease to comment on it further. No sense in just moaning week after week.

    They were better off making a brand new animated movie with the original cast.

    Makes sense. Yeah, it's kind of...spectacle for spectacle's sake right now. "Look how powerful these two characters have turned out to be", or whatever.

    But anyhow, I will cease to comment on it further. No sense in just moaning week after week.
    Totally understood.

    Huh, so my Dad and I found out my paycheck from work last week actually went around 600 bucks.

    ...We're hoping this isn't a fluke once my next check comes in tonight.
