You have a fact right but missed the point of having a pet. Your life will be enriched beyond compare after getting one. You won't be able to understand how you ever lived without your fur/feather/scale baby.
I wasn't allowed pets. My sister had cats, and my brother had dogs. But I wasn't allowed pets. I did get myself a pet raccoon later when I was in my late teens though.
You make a damn good point. With that point in my head, I have to go with the $50. Sure my cash flow will build up half as fast, but if it's from some kind of sick enterprise, then I don't want anything to do with the money. If it's from child harm or animal harm, I'll burn every bill that shows up.
Spaghetti noodles. I used to eat dry macaroni when I was a kid, as I thought it kept my teeth sharp. Spaghetti noodles are the same thing, just a different shape.
Typically, since the games I play are decades old (with a handful of exceptions) there's not a lot to spoil anymore. Sure I'm slowly starting to get into the modern era of gaming with RDR2. But with that exception, I'm still exclusively a classic gamer. NES beats PS4 everytime, hands down.
The ending of chapter 6 in RDR2. Some of it I saw coming, some of it I did not. But the events that I didn't see coming, were seriously fucked up in my opinion.
When an event in a game makes you cry, enraged, and sick all at the same time, something is either done extremely well, or extremely horrible.
I would be more isolated, and a lot meaner. Games are where all my social skills came from. And they are severely lacking. I hate humans as it is, and if it weren't for games, I would most likely have been executed by the state by now, as I would have gone on a mass killing spree.
Killing as many people as possible before you die is the most fun. I would do it IRL, but as @killamch89 said, I would most likely end up being someone's bitch. Assuming I survived the first week.
The Antagonist. I just like the way it sounds, and it suits me well.
But if we're talking a more traditional name, I would go for MaryBeth Gaskill or Rinoa Heartilly.
