BorisTheWizard 98 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 So, I couldn't make it to the draft position pick of my main league, and coincidentally I was picked to be position 10/10. Total coincidence, I'm sure. <_< Gotta crush my league this year to show these #$*!ers who's boss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Democrobot 1,013 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I've been trying to work on my treatment by browsing jobs in my area (can't really go beyond it) and so far, looks bleak. My best (and only) option is back to Starbucks. Which unfortunately will not happen because I prefer places that actually train you and report injuries, not scapegoat anyone they can't bully around. School is no better. Nothing part time with small classes nor much interest in anything at all. Since these are meant to encourage social communication for treatment, online work/classes are redundant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eal 2,671 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Went to a con for a day. Friend wanted to meet Chris Sabat, so yesterday I bought a My Hero Academia poster at Walmart of all places and got All Might’s and Deku’s autograph. It’s got the entire class on it so it’ll be fun going to various cons seeing how many signatures I can accumulate. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Democrobot 1,013 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 My phone charger is going to poo. I'm going to have to go buy a replacement one. Luckily the store is not too far away so I can walk there and back if the weather is nice tomorrow. It'll take up a chunk of my day but the fresh air and walk should prove to be refreshing for me. In treatment news, since I need to either work or go back to school, I've decided to attempt to compile a list of all my skills, many of which are business related in the management, administration, and HR sectors. I'm hoping I can find something not too stressful and within reasonable distance. Bonus points if said work is able to work around my appointments. They're basically every 6-8 weeks for orthodontist work, every 3 months for a teeth cleaning, and like 3 times a year or less for surgery related stuff (except for post op, that varies by procedure). It's a little more than most people but I feel I make up for it by being able to do the missed work at home if needed since I don't have many evening/weekend commitments. It's a matter of selling myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cobolisdead 214 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) This past weekend I spent all day Saturday and most of Sunday priming and painting my hallways and foyer. 13' ceilings suck when you have to paint them, especially when they have crown molding. Saturday was brutal, as I was painting the wall with the thermostat on it, so the AC was off all day and it got up to 87 inside the house at 10PM by the time I setup the new thermostat. I should note to anyone that wants to upgrade to a nice new thermostat, you will need to have a power wire ran from your furnace to the thermostat to power it. So I will try to get some pics of the newly painted rooms, but they went from a dusty yellow to nice dark grey. The Wife and I love the color, but after living there for 11 years, it is taking some getting used to seeing it so different and updated. This weekend, I am going to upgrade my Kitchen faucet and paint the living room. Edited August 14, 2018 by cobolisdead Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YangustheLegendaryBandit 3,617 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I’m off to see Jim Gaffigan in half an hour at the Iowa State Fair! His show starts at 8 PM tonight. It’s a bit of drive to the fair from where I live, but it will be worth it. Gotta get a corn dog and maybe a fried snicker before the show starts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BorisTheWizard 98 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 DBFZ has got me in the mood more Dragonball, since I've never watched the original series. Started a 2-week free trial on Funimation to watch it! Can I get through 150+ episodes in 2 weeks? Let's hope so! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After watching the game at EVO earlier this month, I’ve been really tempted to buy the game. There were some really hype moments, and since it’s an Arc System fighting game there’s a good chance I’ll enjoy it. Do you play the game online at all Boris? If you do (and if I get the game sometime soon), would you be up for some online matches? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you do (and if I get the game sometime soon), would you be up for some online matches? If you like both DBZ and ASW games, it's certainly a must buy. That being said, I have not played online yet for two reasons: 1: I haven't played a fighting game since Soul Calibur II, so I'm basically learning the genre from scratch. 2. My PS4 is connected to the internet via wi-fi, not a hard connection. Our internet is fast enough that I don't think it's a huge issue, but I don't want to get angry messages from strangers on the internet I'd certainly be willing to play with you if you decide to buy the game, though.

Nice. DBZ is one of the few animes I like, though it may have to do with the Toriyama artstyle. It’s actually been in my adult years I’ve liked the series more and had more interest compared to when I was a kid. At some point I’ll need to check out DBZ Kai. Anyway, that would be fun to do. I’m sure I’ll do poorly at first, and I have a feeling some of the characters I want to play are ok in the meta. I know for sure Krillin will be one of my team members, Cell as well since he’s my favorite villain. 3rd character....no idea. Maybe one of the Gohans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fates 269 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 The original Dragon Ball is the GOAT. There's nothing quite like it. DBZ is also good, of course, and I liked it all the way through. GT, generally bad, has some GREAT designs from Toriyama. Worth checking out just for that. Also mustache Vegeta. Now Super... well... eh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BorisTheWizard 98 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) I don't have much of a problem with Super, even if it's only because it's less of an embarrassment than GT. The animation is all over the place, and some of the plot points feel rushed, but at the end of the day it feels like a logical extension of Z. Also, Black and Zamasu are both sick in DBFZ Edited August 15, 2018 by BorisTheWizard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, Black and Zamasu are both sick in DBFZ From what gameplay I’ve seen, Black is easily one of the best assist characters along with Super Saiyan Vegeta. Beam assists are always so good in tag team games like this. Anyway, almost time for Jim Gaffigan! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
