i thought we were friends
You're right
it's better than a watch
It's the evolutionary next step, yet tons of scrubs choose to bang rocks together in the stone age
Sell me on it in a sentence.
i basically picked it because it's at the top of my list.

shitting dick nipples.
Yeah but my groupmates are idiots who failed the first two tests and really need a good grade on this final report. So I have to actually put my part in. But yeah, it's extremely, extremely hard to care right now. This is my last assignment, just gotta take 2 tests next week.
I am off the vegan thing for the moment
Those are carnitas, slow cooked for four hours
Mass Effect style RPG focused on spies.
I am celebrating it today
DEAL WITH IT

you can't possibly really think this
I'm supposed to go to a "Wild West Party" (ugh) tonight but don't wanna for aforementioned reasons.

No, actually I'm pretty serious. Watches are outdated technology. Yes, I understand they are fashion. You know what is also fashion? A bracelet that doesn't have a piece of Victorian technology shoehorned into it.
It has the best dialogue system ever.
You didn't text me
You should always just assume I am having delicious food and beers
what the
i can't handle this right now i'm crawling back into my cave
In proper tradition, I am going to watch a bunch of Japanese guys dress up and fire muskets, get drunk, and then take a bullet train to Tokyo.
Because Mexico!
But does it allow you to win conversations using fisticuffs?

Ahh, make the most out of it!
NEVER
Unlike Mass Effect, where your dialogue choices give you paragon/renegade score and shit and determine who your character is, your dialogue choices only have an effect on how the people who can hear them perceive you. Who you are is determined by your actions. So you can act differently around different characters and not have it be out of character for how you see your guy, you're just trying to get them to like or not like you. Also you only have a limited time to make your choices which forces the conversations to flow properly.
You can avoid at least one fight by bluffing your way into a compound.
It has many, mutually exclusive endings. Not "oh, this is the good ending", but rather, "and in this story this happened and that guy did a bad thing." It's far from perfect and there's a bunch of really transparently generic dialogue in some areas. On the other hand, it has a wonderfully crazy man who ... well, I won't spoil it. He's awesome though, and you'll know him when you meet him.
I'm not a huge fan of the framing device (because said framing device annoys me), but it would have been difficult to branch the story without it.
When I described the end of my game to other players, they went "what? That's not what happened in mine".
The other day I literally made an old man shout out in fear and ruffle his papers.
The world is my bitch.
so, your spy guy was part bird, right?

Tell me more about how awesome and up to date you are for using a less convenient method to check the time. 8->
sure
I am basically the same, but like, I dunno, it works really well for me. Yeah, avoid stuff like parents divorce 3 minutes into meeting them but, I always found a great way to become friends with people is just to act like you've been friends with them forever. It works for me at least.
I can't count the number of times I have been in a class or something joking around with someone, and a third party asks "Man, how long have you guys known each other? High school?" based on how familiar we are acting. And I am like, "No dude, we met a month ago when the semester started."
I can't really behave any other way around people though, it's just how I work. I mean, I took a one semester Japanese class before I left for Japan and got pretty tight with a group of people in that class, we would go out for food after most classes, we even took a few long trips down to korea town and little tokyo, hung out at their houses a few times, shared hopes and dreams and swapped sordid stories about our love lifes.
I just think people are incredibly interesting and fascinating and want to know all about them when I meet them.
