Everything about Rolan's post is confusing.

[Akura]

I'm not even sure if he's talking about a sushi place in real life or one in his VtM game.

[Rolan7]

Sorry
We're playing a game of Vampire the Masquerade, but using a real city (Charlotte, NC, less than 2 hours away) and using almost entirely real places from Google maps.
Though the Hunter base and a few other places are fictional.  Our condo is a real place.

Major landmarks like the Hilton, Ritz Carlton, Bank of America building, and Integra Corp (my favorite, good heist) are real.  And the GM based their general layouts on reality.

Which is why we'd like to go visit sometime.  Our characters live in a nice real-life condo near a sushi place (and a Jimmy Johns).  And the BoA building, which really has that insane mural, is the Camarilla (vampire) HQ in our game.

Was reading a thing on another forum.

Found Derm. The Derm. Last posted: recently.

I was quite surprised.

THE Derm?

Holy carp dude.

[FallacyofUrist]

Yep. THE Derm. Complete with tentacle mage avatar and very Dermy personal text thingy.
On top of that, it was a complete accident that I found him.

[Yoink]

THE Derm?

Holy carp dude.

I totally read that in Stan's voice.

Sushi place we're looking into has "egg cakes".  They literally folded an omelette over and over until it was sushi-shaped.  Are their eggs as shitty as their iron?

You talking about tamagoyaki? Because that stuff is awesome. Weird slightly sweet fried egg that goes great with the vinegary rice.

[Rolan7]

Based on Google searches, yeah.  The menu just called it egg cakes.  And only a dollar each!
Seriously, these prices made us conclude the the portions must be tiny.  Particularly since the place is located basically downtown.

Joke's on them, a little sashimi is almost as delicious as a lot of sashimi.

[Yoink]

Now I want sushi.
Shame the only vegetarian rolls the local sushi place does have cucumber and other stuff included, instead of just good ol' avocado.

Also a shame that I have no money, unless I can scrounge up some coins lying around on the floor.   

[Rolan7]

Well that's awful, avocado is a wonderfood just as tasty as fish :/

[DeKaFu]

On the subject of sushi, my sister recently visited a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant. I guess they have all the sushi going past and you just grab the plates of whatever you want, and pay at the end based on the empty plates. At this one, every plate was the equivalent of about $1, with cheaper stuff having larger servings and vice versa. Anyway.

They apparently had fugu. I'm sure it was an extremely small piece, at that price, but still.

Would you eat the $1 fugu?

[Rolan7]

The place we're looking at has $1 portions of tilapia sashimi.
As someone who eats a bit of thoroughly-cooked tilapia every week, I'm a bit skeptical about eating even a little bit raw and for a dollar.  But I'll probably give it a try for funsies.

[Solifuge]

Rolan, if you try the tamago at some point, you must tell me how it is. I put off trying that when I could, and now I am full of egg-based longing and regret!

[Neonivek]

UGH! I am so lousy at resisting buying things when pressured by friends.

Currently there are four things on my pressure docket
1) Warhammer Total War: Refunded
2) Overwatch: Impossibly to buy (so yay)
3) Wonderland Season Pass (I'll never get to go)
4) Ripley's Aquarium tickets (UGH!)

[Shadowlord]

Are you good at mp fps? If not, skip overwatch. Also, impossible to buy? It's out now, isn't it? And before, you could pre-order it.

In any case, there was an open beta a few weeks ago (may 5-9, europe time iirc), so the best thing would have been to have tried it then.

My WTF: Floating bluetooth speakers exist.

Why?
