What did the nice mailman have for us?
-

a good idea it is not to allow enemies to accumulate no?

This is blakey telling @accalia she's Doing It WrongTM.
I think he's trying. do you see how little she cares?
sure, Blakey's allowed to have his own opinion, but she cares not for his scorn at the fact that she does not share it.
-
It made the last 6-8 months of that job tolerable because people began to realise how I worked and that I wouldn't take the corporate bullshit.
-
Oh, sure, I just find him being Atwoodian funny. He'd never admit it but I like to imagine his shriveled heart misses a beat.
-
wouldn't take the corporate bullshit.
neither will I. Almost lost me my job once. that was a very interesting day, i think i did tell you the story about that.
-
You did indeed.
In my case I got the joy of telling the corporate SVP drone that 'there was no way in hell' I would let him enact the plan he had and the phrase 'over my dead body' came up too.
Only word had got around that I wouldn't tolerate the BS and he backed down.

You know what would help would be a feature where you can see your history of interaction with another user. Replies, quotes, likes... Or do people just not care about that sort of thing?
WANT NEED MUST HAVE

They established at the beginning of ME2 that they can basically resurrect people, so even if she's "needed" by the plot of 3 (which, full disclosure, I haven't played), they could just pull that shit again.
Miranda isn't needed for ME3, but I think there's a subplotline which doesn't activate if she's dead. A lot of ME3 is like that; what you did in the past affects what
featuressub-games it turns on. (I don't think anyone's figured out how to do anything much more complicated than that yet, not and stay relatively sane. Most devs simply don't bother.)

Add last seen and post count to user card
I don’t think post count is an interesting metric; I had some other ideas: I need to know when this person is around? Tell me when this person is most likely to post based on statistics, what day of week, what time of day. Ideally a graph like we did on chat.stackexchange. So for Tim Post http:/...

What's the story behind the single dollar bill on the desk?
-
They can resurrect people who have been floating exposed in space for ages, but they can't fix Joker's bum leg. I just want to point that out again because I don't know how they expected ANYBODY to swallow that suspension of disbelief.
I see you subscribe to the medical model of disability.

What's the story behind the single dollar bill on the desk?
Two guesses; I don't know which one (if either) is right.
- It was left by a cow-orker who helped itself to the candy.
- It is a fake bill to trick dishonest cow-orkers who might help themselves to the dollar.
-
I see you subscribe to the medical model of disability.
I sure do. I'm a little surprised that @blakeyrat would, though; if anyone here would buy into the BS social model of disability, I would think Blakey would be the one.

Unskilled labour?
Do you a nephew who's a plumber by any chance? I could use one of those.
-
I assumed that he didn't realize there was an alternative.
Let me ask you this thoughsmile: this Joker character's apparently a world-class starship pilot, with bum legs. If Joker had to choose between making his legs normal or instead increasing his piloting ability by the same amount, which do you think he'd choose?
-
What's the story behind the single dollar bill on the desk?
It's a donation seed. a gentle reminder to anyone who gets candy that candy costs money and i appreciate the cash to help keep the candy jars full.

wrong on both counts, but it is meant to inspire your first bullet point!

Yeah, I thought of that one later.
-
which do you think he'd choose?
Not knowing anything about the character or his personality, I'd say it could plausibly go either way. Certainly, highly skilled people are often very eager to further improve their skills, even at the sacrifice of other aspects of their lives. OTOH, he might well choose getting his legs healed if they're seriously inconvenient for him and his piloting skill is adequate — although, ...
world-class starship pilot
... "world-class" seems kind of third-rate for a starship pilot, no?
-

It's a false choice. He would start an advocacy group to lobby for more money for social spending on the disabled. Then he could skim enough money off the top of his racket to afford to hire the best pilot so he could spend more time figuring out how to hide his illegitimate children.
-
you've never played mass effect, have you? because that would be totally out of character for joker.
-
Playing mass effect would be totally out of character for me.
-
+1 for that.
have a cookie.
-
Let me ask you this thoughsmile: this Joker character's apparently a world-class starship pilot,
"apparently" is right. The guy drives DIRECTLY INTO A GIANT LASER in the first 10 minutes. EDIT: I believe this is called "informed ability" in TVTropes.
If Joker had to choose between making his legs normal or instead increasing his piloting ability by the same amount, which do you think he'd choose?
Increasing his piloting ability to "normal" would have been a positive change, since he is definitely subnormal in the game.
-
That's typical rich-kid behavior. Only someone who went to rich-kid schools and got into rich-kid cliques is going to have enough connections to get a racket like that off the ground. Regular person starting an advocacy group's gonna find themself doing [spoiler]a whole lot of work for very little reward[/spoiler].

You're such a Debbie Downer.
