Bachelor meals are the best. No one is stopping me from making them while my wife is here, but for some reason I save them for when she isn't.

I used to be over 350 lbs. with long, thin, greasy hair and a very pale complexion. My nose isn't long, but it's a bit pointy. Probably had dark eye sockets if I'm being honest about my health at the time. Anyway, my friend's brother stood in front of me when we were sitting around drunk, and said "No offense, but you look like the Penguin (from Batman) right now." Then went on to try to make that sound less offensive by suggesting it was just the lighting or the angle or something. But I knew what he was talking about. He was absolutely right. I never felt worse about myself.
Thankfully I lost all that weight over a decade ago. Shaved my head, got healthier, grew a beard, and had what my wife calls a tremendous glow-up. But I used to be the Penguin... So you should watch out.
Good & Plenty and Mike and Ikes.
Thanks for the heads up. I don't really have a vendetta against Microsoft, I just hear a lot of moaning over how bad 11 is and have been hesitant to upgrade thus far. Even if it isn't great, I managed to strip 10 down in a way that it closely resembles 7, so I'm sure I can do something similar.
I'm on Windows 10 currently, so not quite two versions behind, but I held onto XP and 7 for ages.
Follow-up question: You guys still dealing with the Chupacabra?
I have always liked Windows, but I'm always two versions behind and have never actually experienced any other OS. I'm open to Linux, but it also scares the shit out of me because I'll essentially go back to knowing fuck all about the OS on my PC.
And I've also heard gaming can be complicated on Linux, whether or not that's true.
Specific video game subs are what I miss the most. I used to be very active in r/stalker and r/teslore, r/trueSTL. There is nothing like that here that sees more than one post per month, and I'm not sure that I have the energy to commit to reviving it myself.
It might be. It's hard to remember. Two characters are waiting on supplies somewhere and they see the headlights way off suddenly come complete stop. After a while they know something's up and they go to investigate, and wind up finding the truck half destroyed, with the driver's hands still gripping the wheel and the rest of his body devoured by the little zergling guys. I feel like you might get to see a flashback from the driver's perspective too, but again, it's been so many years.
(looked it up and this is the Pedro scene)
The scene where the truck's headlights in the distance come to a stop in the night used to scare the absolute shit out of me as a kid. I don't know why it was so horrifying. Left a lot to the imagination, I guess. Then you see the aftermath.
Just below:
My brother and I put a corked glass bottle down in an old defunct drainage pipe beneath my parents' house. This pipe/canal is quite large and isn't obstructed by the bottle, and the bottle can clearly be seen by peering into a hole in the cement of the basement storage room. Inside of that bottle is a carefully folder paper bearing on it a crude drawing of a cock and balls.
