Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Rabbit Season! Duck Season! [Chat] Season!

When are you having a baby, why no baby yet, are you and your wife having trouble conceiving, you know there are options for fertility, don't you want to have kids, are there problems in the bedroom, the lord said to be fruitful and multiply, you know birth control can cause abortions...
Oh yeah, congrats and stuff.
Past fantasizing and into "market research". I wanna know if there's a real market here before I start sinking time into putting a solid plan together and trying to attract investors. The idea is that there are a lot of folks out there who like to game, but don't like the "scene" you get in the back of a comic store. That with a quality establishment serving real food, with a staff able to take the edge off gaming, help people get to the fun, and toss out the Francis table-flippers, that there's money to be made.
A place for adults who like act like adults while they game.
I used to get some comments about how we got married so young! but no one really says that anymore
Jesus is that what people think?
THEY AREN'T PICKLED, THAT'S FORMALDEHYDE
?
Is there something about ethnic trans people that makes them objectivly "worse" to bigots?

Saw a meeting that I thought was called "Meeting with Diplo"
Damn you Dipto!
i gots to play the field, man
Almost as hard a life as being beautiful, I imagine.
I think my parents have given up on me bringing them grand kids, or even getting married.
Thankfully they are four more siblings so odds are they'll get those events from them, otherwise I'd probably be experiencing a degree of meddling in my affairs I've not had to tolerate since I was about sixteen.
You're missing out. Tied-down sex play is the best.
Preach it bro, playa4life
Same. Now, it's just a math test we get to inflict on people.
"She just turned 39"
"Coming up on 18 years married!"
"Oldest daughter is 17."
*waits*
The slowly dawning realization that we had a child at age 21 just makes me think "man, this whole subtraction thing has really thrown you for a loop hasn't it?"
ALSO you may want to consider free competition
when I first moved here, I went to a video game thing at a local applebees or something with dr mario kart where the restaurant let them all bring in computers and ps3s and shit and hook them up to TVs on like a tuesday, just to get the little bump in business from gamers buying apps and beers or whatever
and I also went to a board game night meetup at a local pizza place that was basically the same idea, people came to play board games and the restaurant hosted to get some extra revenue on a slow night
so you should take that into account when researching : )
No, it's just that particular intersection is gruesome and has body parts hanging from the stoplights.
Like it makes me feel guilty to complain about trans issues, because at least I'm not brown too.
Apparently about 87% of anti-queer murders are people of color.
It's a terrible, gruesome thing. But also.. I think most of the murders are probably people of the same race? So it's really complex.
Yeah, judging by the other Nats games I've been to, I call bullshit on that.
Is there no food-related idea you cannot ruin?
I made the most awesome sammich for lunch.
publix premium roast beef, boar's head imported swiss, publix mayo and deli-style mustard, dill chips (Because the jar was bigger than the bread and butter jar), on publix deli baked mountain wheat bread.
with a side box of raisins and an oatmeal cookie.
om nom nom nom
wife and i still get told we look too young to have kid(s), too young to be married, etc etc
it's probably the only thing that gets me semi-riled up because it's impossible to say something like that without an undercurrent of lifestyle judgement
so sorry i didnt follow your proscribed life plan
From college, two of my roommates are married. One has two kids and one has a daughter. The one with two kids is on his second marriage but had no kids in that first marriage it lasted like 6 months. Most of the rest have girlfriends but really nothing about marriage and stuff.
From Japan some of the Japanese I know are married now but not so much the folks from outside Japan.
In grad school there are a few folks married. Most though aren't even planning on it because they are shipping themselves to the far corners of the world to research or run development programs or work for the CIA and stuff.
Yeah, we just did a big thing at a local ball game where they rented out a box or some such. A couple days before the RSVP deadline they were like, pls, more people, come, pls.
This thing exists. Local (to me, ish) businesses, Cafe Mox and AFK Tavern. (Google will find 'em.)
As a fellow bitter singlton, coming across a little bitter there brah.

Westboro Baptist Church aint got shit on abusing homosexuals when compared to what happens in a black community.
It ends in violence 99.9% of the time.
If you aren't exactly median there is something wrong with you -_-
culture clash i guess

like we are all friends here, don't worry about being a third wheel or make a big deal about me bringing my kid along
and the reverse is true, I'm happy to go hang out with a group of single folks and it won't make any difference to anyone's enjoyment
Like no, you really are not othered in any meaningful sense as a married guy; even a young married guy.
It's exactly along the lines of "oh, it's so hard to be pretty!"
It's a combination of things, but Ludious is right ><
Fuck Yes, Business Model Validation!
That is p excellent.
i suspect that has a lot more to do with the high percentage of black people being poor/have crappy education than anything else
i bet a trans person wouldn't go down too well in a white trash trailer park either

You really can't see the forest for the trees can you?
Do you have a tumblr?
Nats are actually good this year and that tends to increase the crowd.
Also who are they playing? If it is like Boston, New York Yankees or one of the big NL teams like the Cubs(for some reason people still pay to watch them) or Cardinals I bet it will be more crowded.
If it is Houston, well no one wants to watch them in Houston.
WHY AREN'T YOU CONFORMING THIS IS CAUSING ME TO SECOND GUESS MY WORLDVIEW PLEASE STOP
That's cuz most people you want to hang out with are not dumb immature people!
Part of life not being an asshole is accepting that if it doesn't affect you, then whatever! Be happy for them if they're happy and sad if they're sad. Have at least the empathy of a dog, Jesus.
haha i have heard that a bunch too
then i tell people that i found the venue, participated in the tasting, chose our first dance music, chose the pastor that's marrying us (my uncle), picked out the tux, helped my fiancee pick colors, helped pick the table linnens and all that crap, and planned the entire honeymoon in secrecy
and i get these weird looks!
like
this is the gooby and goobette show, dogg
of course there is a bunch of shit that i just do not care about, but that doesn't mean i'm not going to do anything for my own wedding
that certainly isn't fair to her to make her plan the entire thing
Never again.
I wonder how much other lifestyle choices affect when people get married.
It seems like quite a few of my high school friends who went straight to the job market after high school are married and/or have kids. They're 23-24 now and have been married for years.
But only two of my college friends are married, a small handful more engaged, and they're around the 22-27 range.
