I know what I'm getting Murphie for White Day.

"Traditionally, popular White Day gifts are cookies, jewellery, white chocolate, white lingerie, and marshmallows.[1] Sometimes the term sanbai gaeshi (三倍返し?, literally, "triple the return") is used to describe the generally recited rule that the return gift should be two to three times the cost of the Valentine's gift.[2]"

Just make sure the dildo is 2-3 times more expensive than the dildo he got you for Valentines day...

I could say I was just going to make him one 2 to 3 times larger than the real penis he gave me, if you know what I mean.

But then all I'd need is a baby carrot. Ooo0o0o0000oohhhhhhhh.

Jokes.

I just spent twenty minutes on the phone with one of our IT guys discussing a new project in detail. I actually don't hate our IT guys, they're overworked but they do a lot of really good shit and they're always developing new stuff to make our jobs easier. This new project is a doozy and after the weekend working with it, I found plenty of issues with it so I placed a detailed IT request and got into a conversation about the new projects on the ledger.

Definitely a good idea to stay on the good side of IT.

Normally this would go in the Pet Peeve thread, but I couldn't contain my laughter.

Tonight while walking home from work I had a revelation.

MMORPGs are basically optimization puzzles. I'd already known that on a basic level, but tonight I realized it applies in more ways than were initially apparent.

The most basic is simply the puzzle of optimizing your character's performance. However, there's another facet to it. There's optimizing game performance with respect to maintaining your position within your comfort zone in regards to playstyle. It's an inelegant way to articulate so I'll go with an example. When I first started FFXI I didn't know about gear swapping. Then I found out about it and didn't want anything to do with it because it was outside my comfort zone. Eventually I caved because the increased performance outweighed the importance of staying wholly within my comfort zone. I still wasn't keen on the idea however, so I limited myself to just some basic MND and INT macros on my Red Mage. Eventually I ended up expanding it somewhat beyond that obviously, but that was largely with the aid of spellcast. Spellcast allowed me to accomplish much more with gearswapping while still maintaining a foothold in the playstyle I had become comfortable with and even let me shift to a more comfortable area. Using the magic of XML I was able to pull even better performance out of my character, but I still hit a wall. I wasn't willing to overcomplicate my setup after a certain point, namely I couldn't be bothered to have accuracy, potency and mixed sets for my spells. So there I was, further out of my comfort zone than I thought I'd get, but still comfortable while extracting monstrous performance from my character.

I find myself running into a similar situation in SWTOR.
Initially I wanted to stick with just the initial 12 slot quickbar, but eventually found a way to toggle between two of them and upped the count to 24. Now I'm finding that's filled and I'll probably be using modifier key binds to up the count to 36 sooner or later. In this example, spellcast is to FFXI as my Logitech G600 is to SWTOR.

Due to issues with my laptop I've been unable to log into WoW ... there is something wrong that I just can't figure out, it's causing a bunch of other issues and I almost couldn't boot it back up a little bit ago.

Seems the tax return is going toward a new laptop, if I can manage to reformat this one then I can finally dual box like I've wanted to. But that all depends on a lot of "if"s, and I"m not sure if reformatting will even fix the problem, because I can't seem to figure out what it is.

Sometimes, I hate computers.

Have you checked to see if it's plugged in? That's all the help I can provide.
