Halloween candy is good. I do love me some candy corn.

I actually prefer the pumpkins. Same mix, probably. But it's a different shape. <3 Plus, 'Ween candy makes All Saints day have a purpose. ^_^

Swearing vengeance?

I prefer to scream for it.

Crying out for vengeance is arguably different from taking an oath to seek it. But was still pretty sweet. Love the OG flavor. <3

Cheese display cases make for hours of interesting exploration?

There's a cheese factory in downtown Seattle (Beecher's handmade cheese) where you can watch cheese being made, and look at a large display case of the cheese they sell.

The prices, on the other hand...

You know, I had only a little interest to visit Seattle, most of it tied up in the Star Trek museum/nerd gallery.

Until now. @_@

Gravy burns hurt the worst?

Seattle is definitely worth visiting at least once. The cloudy weather isn't for everybody, but there's still lots to see.

I don't know if I'd say the worst (Hot cooking oil is my nomination), but at least you were burned in the pursuit of making greatness.

I'm not a fan of hipsters, thus I'd always planned on avoiding Seattle. I actually prefer rainy weather. And I want to see the Space Needle in person.

When clearance items are actually just normally priced items with a red tag? @_@

Hipsters seem to be more of a Portland problem, honestly.

That's one of the more annoying "discounting" techniques. Ugh.

Debatable. But not by me. It's like...visiting Transylvania, vs visiting Paris. You're far more likely to encounter a Vampire in Transylvania, but there's a fair chance you'll get bit in Paris too. So why risk it if you don't have to?

Is it worth 57 papercuts a week for a sweet 'Weentimes costume?

Tue Oct 13, 2015 3:53 am

Well if True Blood is any indication, you aren't exactly safe in Mississippi/Tennessee either, so why not live a little?

Depends on the costume. If it's awesome like the Space Marine armor, I'd say yes.

Tue Oct 13, 2015 6:09 am

True Blood is only an indication of...nevermind.

I'm going for Dragonscale armor. So far, it's going good. Except for the papercuts and hot glue burns.

Why is it always the face?

Not when you're a cop!

I may or may not have just played SWAT 4, and the training may or may not have said "Shoot for the center of mass."

But probably because it's the most inconvenient and Murphy's law.

Wed Oct 14, 2015 6:56 am

I'm not sure what SWAT 4 is, but I've heard that's true in real life as well. I also don't know who Murphy is, but he should be punted severely in the rumpus for inventing his law.

Sometimes, you just want to hit it with a stick?

SWAT 4 is a game where you play as the leader of a SWAT team (Go figure!). It's predecessors are the Police Quest games, actually. Police Quest 5 was called Police Quest: SWAT, and was an FMV game where you played as a member of a SWAT team. The sequel, Police Quest: SWAT 2, was a real-time strategy tactics game where you commanded a SWAT team (Again, go figure!).

SWAT 3, however, took a leaf from Rainbow Six's book and made it a first-person shooter with SWAT teams. You had to follow police rules (No unnecessary lethal force, and always shout "Stop, Police!"), and it was generally a pretty solid tactical first-person shooter.

SWAT 4 continued the trend, but has better graphics, (Supposedly) improved team AI, and is generally an improvement.

They're pretty fun, but can be frustrating if you're used to "Blam, blam, blam, all targets down."

Yes, especially the software I have to work with...
