I'd never get hired then.

The dress code is formal. How formal I'm not quite sure. I wonder if wearing a vest alongside my regular button-up and tie would be overdressing.

go scan the job out and see what others are wearing before interview if youre worried. won't hurt since they won't know what you look like yet unless you submitted an image of you lol

Alas, my mom won't drive during rush hour unless it's an emergency. I think I'll just go basic buttboy on this one. Don't want to let overpreparation betray a lack of confidence.

Suit and tie, period. Especially if they say formal -- plain button up isn't formal.

I've been giving Sapphire customer support, and Newegg support a really bad time... I feel like I am being an asshole, but oh well, I'm the customer right? The customer is always right... right? :p

As someone whose worked in a call center I don't really blame you, since there's something in the range of a 99% chance you're being given the runaround anyway.

Long story short: I got a Sapphire card RMA'd... I get a card that has scratches and dents as a replacement, and the card displays artifacts during benchmarks, or playing intensive games. Their tech support has actually been really nice, but I'm playing the role of the very pissed/mad customer who has had it with defective cards.... lol They said they would check the card, and if the card is in fact defective (I guess they don't believe me) they would send me another card, but they would upgrade me to their end of the line top card ( R9 290x)

As for Newegg, I'm trying to get a refund for an item that's non-refundable. I said I wouldn't buy from them anymore. They sent me an email saying that they would make an exception for me. The catch is that there's a 15% restocking fee, and the refund is store credit. I:

I once had a messenger bag to carry my tablet/books. One time, a 10 year old girl, daughter of some of my mom's friends who were visiting her, said my messenger bag looked a lady's purse. She said "I'm not gonna lie, your bag looks like a lady's purse." I have stopped using messenger bags ever since. The trauma is real. Who knew the words of a 10 year old could be so... devastating.

Oh lord,

My friend said he saw someone using my pic and my boyfriends pics on grindr today. I don't even have a grindr account. That's what I get for having a facebook -_-
 
The English demo for the gay dating sim No, Thank You!!! was just released. Check out MangaGamer's site for details. (Still waiting for them to activate my account though. :/)

Calling red_13th~ :D

I get ads for suits now because you talked about them. 😄

Silly Google Ads, I will never buy a suit. They look way to formal for me.

That reminds me, I can't wait for the full version of Coming Out On Top. The demo I played a couple months ago (thanks to you!) was so good. I wish I'd been a Kickstarter supporter.

Cool, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) There should be a new public demo coming soon I think, and the full game is supposed to be out by the end of the year I believe.

In the meantime, are you gonna try the No, Thank You!!! demo? I just played through it and it was life changing. :D
 
Ohh, maybe I should...
Yes, you totally should.

If you enjoyed COoT, you'll love NTY. Though the main characters of the two games are like polar opposites personality wise. But the story of NTY is quite intriguing right off the bat, and the end demo "surprises" are extremely substantial.

I saw your post on Tumblr already. Seems like you really liked it. 😄

I will check out the demo when I have time. Is it simply a adult romance sim or is there more to it? Do you have to earn money, or do something else besides dating?

They're my favs too. The other two are cuter than I thought though. I'm gonna play all four routes for sure.

The artwork is gorgeous and the story and characters are really interesting so far. I'm super pumped for the full game.

No money earning or anything like that to my knowledge. Just read the story, make choices, and decide when and when not to say "No, Thank You!!!". I don't really quite get that part yet, but I think it's kinda similar to Saki's "What's the Matter With You!" from Sweet Fuse, if you're familiar with that game. (ie. Decide when you're not gonna put up with certain situations???) Also, sexy times!
 
Uh, hope it's still ok to post DragRace related stuff here, since the official thread for it is long dead with the season being over @_@

Anyway, I made some AAAGirls fanart!

Game is supposed to come out on December 10th. I'm pretty excited, I enjoyed the demo.

Also what happened to Super Health Club?

So it is like Hatoful Boyfriend, basically? Sounds good enough for me, I have the demo downloaded, just have to install it and I am ready to play.

I love watercolor and I wish I could use it as well as you. It never goes where I want it to go, it always spreads like wildfire and ruins the drawing.That's why I often just use gouache, it's not easier to apply and stays in its place.

Started to play "No, Thank You!" now.

It's hilarious. 😄

I don't know if that is the intention of the game, but I enjoy it so far. I don't quite get what the "No, Thank You!" option does though.

Err, so someone (Helix) made a porn where they intercut between the "acting" and Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari. It is probably the greatest thing I will ever see.
Also those jocks...

Are you using watercolor paper? They're usually more textured and not as smooth so it kinda helps control things a bit. Also, a smaller brush helps.

Man, just started No Thank You...Kinda wished these visual novels would have more choices even if it's inconsequential. They just keep on talking and talking. Not to say that it isn't interesting, but you got to have some input. Hopefully, it'll pick up later.

COoT is actually surprisingly good at this, though. The latest backers' demo was great and can't wait for release.

I use a pretty thick watercolor paper, it's 50% Cotton though. Maybe the Cotton is what sucks up all the water and in turn spreads the color way too much?

Hmm, I couldn't tell ya for sure, but maybe, yeah.

Sorry if this generic advice (or if I've said it before) but if the colors go where you don't want them, you can always add more colorless water with your brush to dilute the color, and then quickly dab and soak with tissue, q-tips, or cotton-balls. (And of course, if it's a lighter color that ends up in area that you're gonna paint with a darker color, you can just paint over it once it's dry.)

And like I mentioned earlier, if I'm doing a small, detailed area, (or even some larger areas) I use a super fine, tiny brush. It makes things slower, but you get much more precise control.

Thanks for the advice. I think I will try that out tomorrow, got some new colors and I wanted to try them anyway. I need to look through my art box though, don't know if I have a really fine brush.
