  1. To quote from a business meeting today: "No point in having an elephant if you can't chain it and control it in time."
  2. Really? Huh. Any actual reasons or just things like "It was not like the original! Mreaaaaa!"
  3. I would say no one does. You always end up with things like "Bob Kane didn't REALLY invent Batman!" And so on.
  4. How can you downvote Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday?!
  5. So, yeah, despite what I said I got the first Civil War 2 issue. It's a pretty solid beginning, so we'll see where it goes.Also, Moon Knight came out today! And it was fantastic! Weeeeeee!
  6. Yeah, I believe "brain weasels" were introduced to the Shard by Kaymyth.
  7. Gun fight at the O.K. Corral.
  8. Through a group text? Really? What, did he want witnesses in case you eviscerated him?
  9. Well, the laundry basket is empty...which is the best thing according to my cat. He's having a grand ol' time.
  10. John W Campbell Jr.
  11. It's usually someone you don't know, but sometimes that can't be helped.
  12. First, follow what Kaymyth said. Second, just asking for things to improve is the "wrong" way to frame it. You'll want to frame it as you taking the initiative, like "I noticed 'x' the other day and thought 'y' would improve on it. What do you think of 'y'?" In that way, you not only find areas to improve, you show initiative and a willingness to work with others to do stuff in the best way!
  13. Yeah, such fears like being let go after a probationary period are part of the adult experience! The good news is that probationary periods don't usually work like that... It's usually just a precaution in case you never show up. I remember when I was a contractor... I was always concerned my contact would not be renewed or that I would be summarily dismissed! I'm now employed and am concerned about other things ending my employment. It's a pain!
  14. Ah, ok. Hope you can find a good replacement!
  15. But...I kinda like living!
  16. Hmm... That can potentially be insurance fraud. That's something to discuss specifically with your insurance company, but if your doctor/specialist is charging for services that aren't really provided (or for unnecessary tests procedures) that's fraud and something insurance companies frown on (to put it lightly).
  17. I think the bar usually gets updated by Peter, and is based on current word count and some arbitrary word count (like, say, the word count of Way of Kings first draft). So he could be further, he could be less, Peter might not have access to the current word count. I'm not too worried because progress is made and Brandon has not said anything about other obligations making writing difficult (like when the progress bar was stuck around thirty percent for a while).
  18. That last part is somewhat convoluted, but I'm not sure how to simplify it.
  19. That seems to be impossible. And though I watch the show:
  20. With all this talk about the Captain America twist, I think it's important that I come clean and am completely honest with you guys. I debated telling you, but this unpopular view must be voiced!
  21. Yeah, we're definitely in those dips you have in story telling so that future interesting stuff seems more interesting in comparison!
