So, the other day, I was riding the bus home from work, when, at the a stop in front of a large shopping center, the driver rides up on the curb and blows out a tire, requiring everyone to get off the bus. I try calling for a ride, but it turns out, my mom took my stepdad to have a minor surgical procedure to kill several nerves in his neck. I had to walk most of the way home(parents caught up with me), and my feet were already hurting, since I was wearing bootleg combat boots(see below).
Why Happy Thread? Because the GameStop I normally go to was right there at that stop, so I went in, and picked up Radiata Stories for $10. From the two hours I've played so far,
worth it!.
Also, the same day, I was able to push an overfilled dumpster by myself, except for a small uphill part I almost had when someone finally came to help, while the two guys who were supposed to be helping me move it were inside being [bigoted language removed](they're the two guys with the same head-ass shoving). And when I was walking home, I was able to dash across a particularly wide(and dangerous) intersection of a particularly wide(and dangerous) highway without getting tired(or hit by a car).
So, huzzah for not being as wimpy as I thought I was.
I also got a pair of these seemingly counterfeit(albeit very good fakes) boots. The story I was told was that some guys were making these illegally, and the cops shut them down, and they donated 600-something pairs to the charity I
slave work for. So far, I can't tell if they're really good fakes, or simply bootlegged. Assuming they're not as fake as I'm led to believe they are, they're designed to be used by EMTs so that they don't get sick from walking through possibly infected blood. If that's true, then I now have proper footwear for the zombie apocalypse.
On the topic of Pokémon and inferred backstories, here's a picture I found on /vp/. It's rather interesting:
I'll admit though, some parts of it make more sense than other parts.
Mind = Blown. Although I always thought there was more physical similarities between Charizard, Aerodactyl, and Dragonite. Considering in the cartoon, Ash's Charizard would fight only: other fire-types, Aerodactyl(spefically, Charmeleon evolved solely to fight it), and Dragonite(although at the point it battled Dragonite, I think it was loyal to Ash anyway and would fight anything he sent it at). Charizard refused all other battles, even at one point getting Ash disqualified from the Pokemon League. Obviously, there has to be some relationship between at least Charizard and Aerodactyl. Aerodactyl had to go extinct somehow, and the other fossil Pokemon had a reason to die out.
Almost good enough for the OoC thread, except it isn't a B12 quote.
That's what she said.
Actually, a 60's Japanese series I'm now a fan of, Ultraman, also seems to be pretty modern. One of Science Patrol's members, Fuji, is a woman.
