Hospital Pain Nightmare (Beyond My Normal Thread)
eargosedown replied to leejacksonaudio's topic in Everything Else
Worst traditional pain: having my wisdom teeth out. I had to have emergency surgery on them due to an abscess. Dentist opted to remove all four under just lidocaine injection. Due to "special anatomy" I have 5~ roots on each tooth (most people have 2-3) so it took a long time. I went into full shock from the pain and discomfort. Worst experience: post surgical sepsis mixed with morphine withdrawal symptoms. 8 hours felt like 8 days of feeling more miserable than I could describe. If there's a hell, I was in it. -
It's legal where I love. I started occasionally smoking a bit two years ago (I'm 30). It helps my ADHD and lets me focus. But I don't really enjoy being high much. My girlfriend smokes all the time to help here debilitating chronic pain. She gets kinda annoying when she's high though :/

Doom Annihilation was lame. What a disappointing movie. :/
eargosedown replied to Mechaghostman2's topic in Doom General
Some thread necromancy, but it's on topic at least. Watch partied this last night with some friends who are either loosely invested in Doom (have played original once) or not at all (no experience with doom). Overall, I found it enjoyable if for nothing else than to make fun of it. Whereas the 2005 movie really just felt like it had no redeeming qualities to me, this one at least tried and for the budget overall was... watchable! That said, bring popcorn, take it about as seriously as a bad slasher, and laugh along at the inconsistencies. I almost genuinely wish they do a sequel. -
Coronavirus pandemic chat [no medical advice plz]
eargosedown replied to BBQgiraffe's topic in Everything Else
Good news; I'm getting better! Now just gotta avoid Pneumonia! My girlfriend is still a little back and forth but also seems to finally be on the mend. 2/10, would not recommend. -

So fun story; I caught it. I've been jammed in bed carefully watching my breathing. Hartford CT hotline is advising me to stay home or go to the ER if it gets any worse. I have asthma and immune system disorders so I'm in that endangered group. My girlfriend who also caught it (we think we both picked it up in Boston at the same time) is also immunocompromised to the point that hospitals on normal days are a scary gamble. So it's really tough right now keeping a positive look. -
The greatest video game of this decade so far
eargosedown replied to [McD] James's topic in Everything Else
I'd say DayZ, not because it was good or anything, but it literally defined and created the "Battle Royale" gameplay style that has become an entire genre. Minecraft has had huge impact. As for fun, Undertale, Ori and the Blind Forest, Kerbal Space Program, all fun -
And nothing of value was lost

THE OFFICIAL DOOMWORLD 2016 HALLOWEEN THREAD
eargosedown replied to Csonicgo's topic in Everything Else
Now that my husband and I have the most expensive Halloween costumes ever, we'll be spending the night handing candy out to the little Pakistani kids at our apartment complex all night. I think we'll do the Evil Dead series as well the night before. -
Here's John Romero playing and commenting on his recent Doom level
eargosedown replied to Flesh420's topic in Doom General
That was really fantastic to watch, thanks for sharing! I love the hell portals at the end -
Lack of hitscanners is really what's doing it for me so far. I can dodge imp fireballs and undead marines for days by just strafing a bit. I think if there was more direct punishment for being in line-of-sight it might be tougher. Glory kills also seem overly effective and kind of break the pace a bit for me. Why would I ever not save the bullet though, especially when shotgun shells are somewhat tight so far.

Bought it on the steam sale. It's pretty fun so far (only a few levels in). Movement seems a bit weird still, but I'd say it's worth the $20 so far. So far even UV/Nightmare isn't particularly tough...

Came here to say this. Wick is insane, but human still.

Principal Skinner vs Nelson Muntz (debate thread)
eargosedown replied to june gloom's topic in Everything Else
Was an interesting first debate. Trump had a lackluster opening 30, and it felt like he was 2v1 for most of the debate as the moderator picked on him very strongly with questions while being very graceful and gentle towards Clinton. He's not good on the defense, and she is the better debater by far. I'd say they both got a few good hits in. It'll be interesting to see the next one. -
