    The Blackangel reacted to DC in Twitchcon 2022   
    I have no law background but I assume she could sue for inadequate padding, lack of safety and proper protocols, better known as negligence and misrepresentation, perhaps. She and anyone else participating likely had to sign a waiver absolving the venue from any lawsuits and damages but I am not sure the validity of waivers. What she has in her favor is the location of the Twitchcon - California - which is the most pro-customer/consumer state in the USA so there are likely a lot of laws that would make it possible for her to sue and win, tbh.

    I sleep wherever the hell I fall asleep. Once I'm out, a hurricane wouldn't wake me. Just ask @Rain Dew She will DEFINITELY confirm that. She's tickled my feet, thrown water on me, drug me out of bed, and tons of other shit. None of it has worked. And my feet are so ticklish that I CAN TICKLE MYSELF. That's thought to be impossible by most, but I'm the weird one here, so it's real.

    @kingpotato is Mexican if I remember correctly, so he could give a better insight to this. For me personally, I just refer to Hispanic people however they prefer. It's the same as everyone else. Unless it's something stupid, like unvaccinated people wanting to be called "purebloods". But it's kinda in the same boat as me asking people what their pronouns are. No two people are the same with their preferred terminology. And it's not limited to the Hispanic community. It's all in every community. I know a few other lesbians who find it funny as hell to be called a dyke. I would be enraged if anyone other than @Rain Dew was to call me a dyke. So it all boils down to the individual.

    A man stands in line at a liquor store. He says "I've had enough. Save My place. I'm going to shoot Trump."
    2 Hours later he returns to reclaim his place in line. His friend asks, "Did you get him?"
    To which he replied "No. The line there was even longer than the line here."

    A father buys a lie detector robot that slaps people when they lie. He decides to test it out at dinner one night.
    The father asks his son what he did that afternoon. The son says, "I did some schoolwork."
    The robot slaps the son. The son says, “Okay. I was at a friend's house watching movies."
    Dad asks, "What movie did you watch?" Son says, "Toy Story." The robot slaps the son again. Son says, “Okay, we were watching Stormy Daniels movies."
    Dad says," What? At your age I didn't even know what dirty movies were." The robot slaps the father.
    Mom laughs and says, "Well, he certainly is your son." The robot slaps the mother.

    A politician dies. Instead of going straight to heaven or hell, a spirit appears to him.
    The spirit tells him that, rather than being judged for his sins, he gets to choose whether he goes to heaven or hell.
    The politician replies that of course he wants to go to heaven. The spirit tells him that before he chooses, he has to visit both places so each one will get a fair chance.
    First they visit heaven. It looks pretty nice. Big fluffy clouds, angels singing and playing harps, everyone seeming to enjoy themselves. The politician is pleased, if a bit underwhelmed.
    Hell, on the other hand, is magnificent. It’s the most beautiful place the politician has ever seen, and everyone there is having the time of their lives. It has a buffet table filled with delicious-smelling food, a beautiful garden, a pool with a water slide, a dance floor, a massage parlor, and innumerable other attractions. It makes heaven look dull and boring and comparison.
    “I can’t believe I’m saying this,” says the politician, “but I think I’d rather go to hell!”
    “Very well,” says the spirit. “Turn around.”
    When the politician turns around, though, hell appears to be completely different than it had been less than a minute ago. All of the attractions are gone, everything is on fire, and the people are screaming in agony.
    “I don’t understand!” cries the politician. “This isn’t what you showed me before!”
    “Well, that was the campaign,” replies the spirit. “Now you’ve voted.”

    A DEA Agent stopped at a ranch in Texas and talked to an old rancher. He told the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The rancher said, "okay, but don't go into that field over there...", as he pointed out the location. The DEA Agent verbally exploded and said, "look mister, I have the authority of the federal government with me!" Reaching into his rear back pocket, the arrogant officer removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the rancher. "See this badge?! This badge means I can go wherever I want... On any land! No questions asked, no answers given! Do you understand old man?!"
    The rancher kindly nodded, apologized, and went about his chores. Moments later the rancher heard loud screams, he looked up and saw the DEA agent running for his life, being chased by the ranchers big Santa Gertrudis Bull...... With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it was likely that he'd sure enough get gored before he reached safety. The officer was clearly terrified. The old rancher threw down his tools, ran as fast as he could to the fence, and yelled at the top of his lungs......

    The Blackangel got a reaction from AJH in All time favorite Playstation game?   
    It depends on which PS you're asking about. If we're talking PS1, it's a pretty dead even tie between FF8 and Castlevania SOTN for me. I missed the entire PS2 era for reasons that I'm not going to get into at the moment, so I can't comment on that one. With PS3, it's a toss up between GoW and Dante's Inferno. I know GoW was originally on PS2, but I didn't get it until it was rereleased on the PS3. As I said, I missed the PS2 era. On Ps4 (and everyone will attest to this) my favorite is hands down RDR2. With PS5, I haven't really gotten started playing many of the PS5 games I have yet so I can't say there. Also I don't have a whole hell of a lot of PS5 games yet. On the PSP it was, again, GoW. Chains Of Olympus on PSP is actually what got me into the GoW series. I've never owned a PS Vita, so I can't comment on that one either.

    They also don't have unions in the gaming industry so companies can continue to get away with this kind of injustice with minimal repercussions. We've had one or two strikes in recent years but nothing have hardly come of that either. It's just casually swept under the rug like everything else they want to hide from the public.

    They're about like any other studio in that regards. Overworked, underpaid, impossible deadlines, and hellish working conditions. I don't think there's a single studio that threats their employees like anything other than worker ants. And it's all to keep their investors happy. If people would strike just one single time, I guarantee you things would change. Unfortunately, that's not going to happen.

    Somewhere around here I still have my iPhone 5. I don't honestly know where. When I got my first real cell phone, it was one of those slider phones that had a full keyboard under the main phone face. I specifically wanted that one because I thought it would make texting easier. That wasn't the case. By "real cell phone" that means that my first one was a TracFone. Or "burner cell" as they're typically called now.

    I can't stand Coke anything. It's like drinking raw sewage. It literally makes me sick.
    As for preferring diet, it wasn't always the case for me. A few years ago, my doctor told me that I was in the pre-diabetes stage. Diabetes is one thing I've been terrified of getting all my life. So when I was told that, I cut out as much sugar as I could. I quit eating candy, quit eating cobbler (which was harder than hell to do), and switched from regular to diet soda. I never liked diet because it always had a weird after taste to me. But now that I've been drinking diet for several years, I actually can't stand the taste of regular cola. It's diet or nothing for me, regardless of what the soda is. Dr Pepper, Mtn Dew, Pepsi, etc. One that I wish I could still get around here is diet Faygo. Faygo is awesome soda, and so much cheaper for so much more.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from Akun in Do you wanna pay $70 for Skyrim? F**K Nintendo!   
    Another thing I don't get is about preowned games. For example, let's say that a new copy of a game is $70. But there is a preowned copy next to it for $50. What is wrong with buying the used copy? A lot of people will look at the used copy in disgust, and waste the extra money for a used copy. I don't even know the number of games I've bought that were preowned games. It has to be in the hundreds at least.
    So if I want a game, and can save money by buying a preowned copy, I go for it. There's no reason not to. I go the Dark Pictures Anthology: House Of Ashes recently that was a used copy, and it was about half the price of a new one. DPA is an awesome series. I already had Little Hope, and Man Of Medan. Great games.
