my wtf moment of the month (waited until the last day)

I am not sure how I feel about this, but I have an Amazon Echo in the middle of the house, so we haev music going almost all the time. My son was hanging out, so I said "Alexa, play children's music" and this came on.....

so.....as a father....not sure if this is good or not. I mean, the sound is actually pretty amazing, and I am very impressed with the quality...but the fact that my son would listen to NIN....as a lullaby.....I mean.....how f'd am I making him out of the gate....I mean.....shit....I just don't know what to think about this....you have to hear it - it is amazing, yet.....f-d up!

Turned 40 today, and planned on celebrating with ordering GTA5, but first to get groceries. Hit a ATM (I seem to do better with cash then pulling out the card) get 40 bucks for groceries, do my shopping and go to check out and dropped the cash pulling out my phone to check for coupons (dear lord never thought I would use them), trace my steps back through the store, and see a women with her kid counting money in the isle I was last in. I ask if by chance she had seen me drop money in the isle and starts blowing up at me. Her kid starts screaming and crying, and I just walk away thinking 'welcome to middle age'.
Good news is I start a new job this week so no more donating plasma for money and living paycheck to paycheck.

If I ever meet this 'God' person, I want 2 things.
1)I want to see a government issued ID
2)I want a fucking refund.

Hope you had a good rest of the bday! Check your E-mail raisin balls!

Haha, yeah, they have lullaby versions of EVERYTHING now. I found out when I was looking up Avenged Sevenfold's video game score on Amazon. A lullaby album of their tunes came up in search and I was like, what the ??

40 for me this year as well. But no panic attack the day of. Progress?

Yup, I'm in June. Damn, we're a bunch of old guys now.

I did get a belly laugh at work last week when a co-worker said at least I knew what was what because I am older and she can't wait to get older so she doesn't feel like she's making everything up as she goes along. Aw, sweetie, here's some sage advise: EVERYONE is making it up as they go. Some of us just hide it better.

What, you thought somebody handed you a set of instructions at a certain age?

If you guys are losing matches in HotS and you're primarily a pre-made team, one thing that I've gathered after playing HotS for a while is that the "Murder Deathball" strategy is a viable one for Pub games as long as your team focuses on one target at a time during fights.

Basically you all roam together as a team to gank players in lanes and to take out merc camps (don't underestimate them!). This doesn't work well in certain maps where map goals often force your team to split up, but during the downtime, roaming together could work out. Of course it could backfire but it's strategy to try out if you're losing matches and just not meshing well together in separate lane comps.

So you only spend a dollar for each year you've lived? You must have been hungry in your youth.



Happy 40th!

Also, sorry you lost your money.

compared to these guys i'm practically still in the crib since i'm still in my 30s =P

Keep at it Blue! I remember my first time playing a MOBA, it's a steep learning curve! It's one of the better genres to watch streams/videos of to learn tactics for specific characters you're interested in. Build guides are also essential for newcomers so you can see how certain elements come together, and the good guides tend to have random tidbits of helpful general information you may be overlooking, also.

Looking forward to trying Heroes of the Storm sometime soon, it's been a damn long while since I've played any MOBA.

Damn pups!

WOOT! Level up HELFIE!

Don't forget + 1 ear hair. That just showed up out of the blue a few years ago. "WTF?!"

40 was last year for me. So far the biggest change I have noticed is that my doctor has me taking a bunch of yearly tests that I don't remember having to take before 40.

Happy Birthday Half Elf
