EVE Online taught me how to be calm when everyone freaks the fuck out. When shit is at stake and trouble shows up people tend to panic very fast, which renders them pretty much ineffective.

Also does someone remember the First Aid class in America's Army to unlock the Medic? I actually learned a bit by doing that and had no problems later when I had to take a First Aid class IRL

ofc it didn't teach me how to bandage stuff, but things like how long can a brain go without oxygen before irreversible damage occurs and the theory for treating trauma and shock was quite nice to have

This is actually really true. When my brother got cancer, you could see it stretching his skin on his stomach from the inside. Three doctors blew it off as a hemorrhoid or something like that. Turns out because of that, it got really worse and turned out to be a rare as fuck kind of cancer. He's fine now though, but he has to drink like 8 glasses of water a day and can't eat anything with high fiber. He's suing two of the doctors now.
TLDR: Doctors talk bullshit and my brother's life got fucked because of it

She has a boyfriend, and it's more of a thing that she's like a cute little sister to me. Not really gonna go for that. I really just want a girlfriend that likes Dark Souls and MGS and is cute (like cute, not fucking supermodel hot, I don't find that as attractive for some reason) and for her to be nice, if not bro tier. She's a total casual when it comes to games. Is it bad that I want a girlfriend based on if she likes my two favorite things? Is it asking for too much?

Same guy you replied to, similar thing happened to my friend's grandmother, she'd fallen down the stairs in her house and hit her head. The doctors didn't bother giving her a head-scan and because of the bruising on her legs being so bad from the drop, she couldn't get out of bed. Few weeks later, she died of a brain haemorrhage and malnourishment, because the nurses had also neglected to feed her. Now they're taking it to a tribunal and hopefully court. I'm just glad my own grandmother got semi-decent treatment when her aorta fucked up. Although about a week after her surgery, they started using the keyhole method all over. Instead of a little scar, they pulled her ribcage open, so she got a fuckhuge one from neck to navel.

>Sorry, is Kansas not in the South? I haven't read a map of the States in a long time and most of what I know about Kansas is from the Wizard of Oz.
I think Kansas is considered Midwest. I've never been there so I don't know, but I assume it's all deserty shit like in Courage the Cowardly Dog.

I held my breath, lifted rifle a bit above target, let go, and slowly let my rifle drift right where I want it where I press the trigger.

Nah nigger, you didn't abandoned them. You just went to be with the dude you loved. Bad things are going to happen of course, you just need to realize this. It's not like it's your fault, you had no idea that any of that was going to happen. Just realize that whatever is going to happen, that you musn't mourn about it, they wouldn't want that. You must cherish the time you spent with them, as it will always mean more than anything else.

Nothing much to be totally honest, just the generic alchoholic parent, the sane one left, a couple dead niche family members. It's not that bad compared to other people really.

You're a good guy.

One more thing: fuck the feds, and fuck the oil companies. The feds make our cost of living higher because they won't let ships stop here before they stop in California. This is why we have solidarity with Hawaii, as they suffer a similar fate. Fuck the oil companies because they're running a massive propaganda campaign to convince us to vote for lower taxes on oil sales to them, but fuck 'em, they're gonna pay up and like it.

Oh yeah, once you become a citizen, you get free money every year. Every Alaskan citizen is entitled to a yearly dividend based on our tax revenue. It varies, but has been as low as 600 dollars and as high as 2,300. Free money! Happy trails britfriend.

It's mildly frustrating that I can remember where Lithuania is and what it's like, but pretty much nothing about the States besides New York and Miami.

Fairly certain I can mentally process shit twice as fast as most people I know thanks to my early days of Tetris. Or at least the myriad of situations that gaming has thrown me into.

Also, LoZ:MM has me counting to 10 seconds without a stopwatch with fair accuracy. Came in handy in ALBW Rupee Rush.
