I generally don't carry that much on me. Phone in left pocket, Leatherman, keys, and pen in right pocket. Wallet and notebook in back pockets. Any more than that goes in my work backpack.
Yea I was like looking for a solution online because I was like "there's no way you're just supposed to brute force this" and came across so many people that were like "no there's no trick but I got in like 30 minutes"
I got to like 98% in RDR2 before I realized the gambling ones were going to be a giant pain in the ass. At that point I was in too deep to give up. I watched all 3 Robocop movies in one sitting and still didn't complete the last blackjack one. Eventually got it but that was a frustrating experience.
Yea, Doom being that old kind of makes me feel better. Thinking about how old Playstation games are though... that makes me feel like time is spinning out of control.
The worry that someone would get murdered and they'd pin it on me because I'm a fucking weirdo loner and wouldn't have an alibi because I was always at home by myself was a non-negligible part of why I started making an effort to socialize more.
My only problem is trying to use it with the android app. I have to manually sync it like all the time which is a pain in the ass when I forget to do it before I go out the door and my shopping list isn't update. That and it won't sync files I create on the phone to the server
Games usually say how long they take on the box. If it's too long just decline. If it goes over that usually in my experience it's because people are fucking around and making it take longer than it should instead of focusing on the game. Which is even more rude than leaving if it gets too late.
