@BruceCM MoC is IV, but it's a total remaster of IV so it feels modern. Origins is a prequel but since the environment and world is so ancient and different feeling, and the gameplay is more straight-forward hack and slash, it feels like it's related, but a different series, IMO .
@Heavyarms55 I've had few pizzas that I would say were truly bad. The worst was these sausage pizza rectangles my high school served my Freshman year. They were...edible, but definitely tasted like cardboard. I was glad when they switched to normal cheese pizza slices, complete with stuffed crust. The new and improved pizza was MUCH better. I also avoid most frozen pizza bought in the store for multiple reasons.
I feel like I should mention most of our school lunches were actually pretty decent, though there was the occasional main food choice that I wasn't too fond of.
So Jet's sent you a franchisee link? That IS pretty funny! XD I know some people get a kick out of running their own restaurant, but I don't think it's for me either.
I should see if there are any precut fries around here without any additives. Not sure I'll have much luck, but I suppose it's worth a shot. A coworker today also told me about how they cut and bake their own fries in a way different from what I was trying, so I might give that a swing once I ask for the exact oven temp/times.
I also don't dislike cars, but I likewise dislike that they're almost mandatory outside many major cities. It's borderline impossible if there isn't anyone to reliably give you a ride when you need it. A co-worker's brother used to not have one and had to be taxied everywhere until he finally obtained his own license. He barely got by via rides and working within the town he used to live in. Kind of a long story as to why he didn't get one in HS like almost everyone else, but getting a license isn't a graduation requirement.
@NEStalgia, @Ralizah I've heard a lot of good things about Ys VIII, and a little trip down Reddit lane has shown me that a lot of web denizens do seem to hold that one in high regard. I've considered it previously but have been on the fence. It'll take a little more consideration, but I might grab the game now. Thanks for the feedback!
@NEStalgia I don't think I've seen takeout only Pizza Huts other than maybe one in passing at a food court one time. The chain is becoming less common around here. There used to be four in the general area, now down to (I think) two. One was torn down and replaced by a medical office (because the town it's in definitely needs another. /s), another closes years ago and was replaced by a delicious mom & pop restaurant before that building burned down (A new building for the M&P went up after that), the one closest to me is still operating, and the last is (I think) also still going; I haven't been to that last one in years as it's a town I don't go to often.
Edit: Dang, autocorrect and autocomplete on my phone are both very aggressive these days. Fixed a few words.
@Anti-Matter you see how your regular laptop has the top part made of two plastic shells covering the hinges and screen?
Well, it seems the left hinge is failing, so instead of closing completely, it stays slightly open, but the right hinge closes properly. So that twisting bends the plastic and it separates.
@Tyranexx I have a friend who had a licence but couldn't get a job and thus could not afford a car - which lacking a car meant his potential job options were incredibly limited, but because he couldn't get a job he couldn't get a car and... do you see where I am going with this? He and I graduated at the same time, right during the last financial crisis around 2008-2010. I was lucky cause my family had resources so I had my old junker and was able to get work but my friend was raised by a single mom who barely made ends meet (through no fault of her own). Once he finally landed work and a car he managed to get out of the rut but that's the point - no car, no work - no work, no car. It's a mess!
Also back on the pizza topic - I have had some pretty bad frozen pizza, but generally that falls in the soggy category for why I don't like it.
@Heavyarms55
Are you still playing ACNH ?
My job as Villager Hunter was done as i got 10 selected villagers so i can focus on island development.
Do you have Pear and Cherry fruits as well some exclusive items based on Airport color ?
I will play ACNH at 6 pm. Right now is 10 am here.
This laptop has been giving me problems since day one. Sometimes it just locks up at random, and I need to force a reset. It's been over a year of that.
I do have a small project though, I've been cleaning my room to make room for a desk and saving for a desktop computer.
