I was running a little late this morning to work. My power went out during a small storm, so I could not cook breakfast. So instead of being the guy that was late, I BROUGHT DONUTS!

On the bright side my US Navy license plates came in for my bike and my car

Why, hello sailor. Been in town long?

The lady who trained me on this shift would put "Have a great day and a better tomorrow" on the event sheets for the lobby. I had to fix that. Now it reads "Good day and have a pleasant tomorrow."

If it were "Good Night and Better Tomorrows," you'd be getting a Cease & Desist letter from the Jerry Taff family.

So there's one who doesn't get it.

First time I've ever seen one of these in the wild. Yoink!

Secret (until now) shame: I never played Day of the Tentacle.

Same.
Nor Maniac Mansion.
Nor Monkey Island (any).
I have played Zombies Ate My Neighbors, though.

Day of the what?

 

[GasBandit]

Day of the what?

Day of the Tentacle! The amazing time travelling sequel to Maniac Mansion from Lucasarts!

 

[Null]

Never played either. Or Monkey Island.

 

[GasBandit]

Man, UNICEF needs to make a sad charity commercial about you guy's childhoods.

 

[Null]

Well, you know, not everyone gets to do everything. Sometimes, you just miss things in life.

You are dead to me.

No need to worry. Remember, there is a remastered edition of Day of the Tentacle in the works.

And it's looking pretty great!

If it helps restore any gamer cred, I did play Maniac Mansion, Sam & Max, and Full Throttle way back when.

I met a lady today who I really like. We have agreed to hang out again in the near future.

She's an engineer and a boardgame nerd.

Roll against +2 for "Charm with Nerdiness."

So I learned yesterday after we met for coffee that she is basically the world's biggest nerd. I'm the fakest of fake geek guys next to her. It was honestly intimidating.

Maybe she's testing you, seeing if you can handle it.

Had to spend a good hour on the line with Microsoft to get my Windows 10 re-activated. But they did it! Got a new product key to it and able to do everything I need to do again!

Had a little electrical problem in our apartment no too long back, had to replace my motherboard and power supply, but able to salvage the memory and HDD. Didn't know that Win10 will de-authorize an installation if it detects too much of a hardware change. The more you know...

That's been pretty much every version of Windows since XP came out. Thanks, WGA!

Never had this problem before this swap.

Custom suits arrived and fit perfectly. Man I feel like a million bucks wearing a properly fitting suit.

You do realize we will need photographic proof to determine if you truly look like a million bucks. We would hate for you to think that but really only look like $674,3482.00.

Does it come with a handkerchief in the same pattern?
