Drove 6 hours today up into the desolate north of Iceland. Shit feels like Mars up here, except it’s cold, rainy, and windy as fuck. Rewarded ourselves with some fresh local Icelandic lamb. Bomb!

hey are you near that volcano that just went off?

Thatd be a cool tourist treck, I think it just stopped??? It was going real strong all the last couple weeks.

Yeah that’s one of the sore spots for this trip. That mother mother stopped literally the day we were set to see it. Pretty butt hurt about it, but that’s nature for ya.

The last time it did this it went off for months, so we got a little penisy with our planning. But as they say in Japan, shoganai (means it cannot be helped), so lesson learned for next time!

Tell me about it, i keep waiting for half a nation to slide off into the ocean so we can get to the next phase of tribulation but it NEVER HAPPENS

Nah, just the regular one. Watched the Two towers today

I’m glad they liked it. It was fun explaining why the ents didn’t like metal and wheels and why the hobbits of the shire were less corruptible than men

They’re young so I doubt they understand, but I’m gonna buy them the books for Christmas

The part that hit me emotionally was the “last march of the ents” scene. I was hoping for glorious self-sacrifice for the ultimate good, but they won the fight handily [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Logged in for the first time in about a year over the weekend

Made about 300pp grinding goblins, only about 10k more to go to get my lev 55 spell. I remember now how boring grinding mobs can be, but staring at a wall for hours camping items is even more boring

Glad I remembered how to play after a while tho

At work, getting the story from a family about how their 8yr old pulled a knife on them and herself over the weekend

Me: I recommend securing all the sharps, you can get a locking plastic case if you want to still be able to keep them in the kitchen. Yknow, kids can be impulsive

The 9yr old: I’m not impulsive! You’re being over-dramatic!

Me: I didn’t say you, this applies to kids in general, and nice use of vocabulary

Me (what I wanted to say): You’re not impulsive? I just watched you break down and freak the F out for the past 10 straight minutes because your stepdad wouldn’t cook your pretzel right this very minute. But you’re not impulsive, no

Even if you win an argument with a 9yr old though, you still lose
