I once met all my Final Fantasy 14 raid team members irl during the 2023 FFXIV Fanfest convention. I had been raiding with them for about 8 years at that point. It was strange hearing their voices coming from actual bodies LOL. It took awhile for me to realize their voices were actually theirs, mostly when I listened without looking at them
I gotta go to a con one of these days, I just hope I'm a better person before then. Gotta hold back them demons. Can't be making snarky comments man.
Conventions are pretty fun. I'm not too much of a big fan of them anymore tho since they're so noisy and busy. They get me extremely overwhelmed VERY quickly. Now.... If I was up on a stage singing an anime song that a wrote for a new show.... And had a VIP pass.. heheheh
You know, mentioning this. Me and one of my buddies really want to go to a gaming con or a comic con or something. We just gotta save up that money to go, and find time. He's got a soul crushing retail job so you know how that goes. I gotta figure out if I want to go the extra mile and cosplay. I am planning on braiding my beard and going as a viking to the next Renaissance Faire.
You're like the best person here what, totally not because you made that picture or anything lol. Seriously though you're cool as shit, just like everyone else I've befriended here. I know I can't just say that and make you feel differently but I do mean it.
OH MMY GOD okay wait I just remembered this one book that I LOVED as a kid. I've been rereading it since yesterday and I love it so much. It's not a series but it's called *A Mango Shaped Space*. It's about a little girl named Mia who has Synesthesia and thinks she's a freak until she meets another kid with it too. It's the book that introduced me to the word and concept of Synesthesia and that it wasn't particularly "normal" all the way back when I was in 4th grade haha xD
I haven't got into many book series lately, and I've only finished the first book of The Witcher so far, but I used to be heavy into these Goosebumps knock offs called Michigan/American Chillers, and they had stories I think that were better than the crap R.L Stine was coming up with. I remember one where this kid was playing "insert legally distinct Castlevania game here" and he got sucked into it and had to get out. Or there was one where these kids got left behind in this "everyone is missing" type scenario and they found this scientific facility where some crazy experiments were happening and it was the cause of everyone being gone. Really cool books, and the author Christopher White, under the penname Johnathan Rand was really active in the children's community here in Michigan, had a couple of my books signed by him. Really cool dude.
Actually, now I'm upset. I remembered that my damn books all got water damaged. God dang it man. Not gonna discuss the way it happened, but I had like 100 some books when I was a kid. I was obsessed with reading.
Those sound so cool, I love the premises. I rlly miss reading children's books like that. Tbh I feel like YA or Novels written for Adults lose that sort of creativity and wonder. Most of the YA/Novels I've read seem to all be about some dark underlying conflict or drama or whatever.
If you like Goosebumps at all you'd really like them. I remember they had awesome covers too. Actually just looked it up. This is one I had as a kid.
This is fucking AWESOME
This was really sweet Skeet. Thank you
This too Ramy. Thank you
Apples. Green ones. Delicious. Honorable mention for bananas and mandarins (not the people)
I love green apples but I can’t eat them anymore because the acidity make my stomach hurt. :(
Damn, that sucks :/ I love acidic foods, couldn't imagine living without them
Strawberries
Same here, it’s just specifically green apples that hit like a truck for some reason.
I eat fruit in Summer because I like watermelons, that's all. Maybe oranges and peaches, but not that much. I don't eat often especially fuit.
Any citrus fruit, would kill for some more lime
