I just like it cuz I'm surrounded by games
Our Gamestop is blessed by perfect employees. It seems that a fair percentage of other shoppers when I’m there only speak to real people in person when they’re shopping at Gamestop, and the employees manage to be friendly, know what they’re talking about, and also keep the line moving.
Plus most of them have interesting hair.

Uncle, what's THAT thingy?
Lol. I'm definitely not playing this around the kids. I have to wait until they leave so I can try it
Well, he hadn't played it yet and we were house-sitting or something. I think he was ten, not seven. But all the same, the nudity popped up with the women in the bed or whatever, and my brother turns to me and goes, "Don't you DARE turn this off!"

Our Gamestop is blessed by perfect employees. It seems that a fair percentage of other shoppers when I’m there only speak to real people in person when they’re shopping at Gamestop, and the employees manage to be friendly, know what they’re talking about, and also keep the line moving.
Plus most of them have interesting hair.
Ours is too, they are so nice and helpful that I feel mesmerized into spending as much as I can there. They are on my good list, I love shopping there!
Snuggles likes to wear his jumpsuit with the floaties built in. For no reason. We're not going swimming. He brings it to me and makes me put it on him because he just LIKES wearing it XD

Hollow, my son wore a Barney Halloween costume everywhere for about a full year. He was about Snuggles' age that Halloween, three and a few months. The tail sort of swished when he walked. It was freakin' adorable.

"S'up Chorrol! Welcome to my humble abode. My tiny single apartment, which is barely larger than a typical carport is still my home, and I do like coming home to a nice, clean and decorated place."
"Now this here...this is my study and the like,...by which I mean the southwest corner of my glorified shoebox."
"Now I see you looking at that dark mass just above the Computer Screen, scratchin' ya head askin yerselves, what the heck is that thing? Well, if you look closely, you'll see it's actually a cosplay dagger and a bunch of black roses bein' held up with a transparent push pin."
"Yeah, it's like....uh...supposed to represent...my,...uh...dark side and stuff,...yeah, that sound's good...not just cuz it looks cool or nuthin' like that...I get deep son! Movin' on..."
"Yeah, this bookshelf top over here, got a Buddha Statue, cuz you know, I'm like...all spiritual and (bleep),...yeah, I'm real deep, son. Got these four votive candle holders over here, cuz they represent the four Noble truths of Buddhism, not cuz they match the bookshelf, and they had exactly four on sale at Target, or nothin' like that...told you. I'm deep, son!"
"Now, just on the other side of the study, I got myself a nice bathin' area, and the theme of that place, is like...white...cuz...a lotta cleanin' and stuff, purgin'...takes place...the bathroom, is actually, like the most spiritual place of a house...I learned that in an online Feng Shui course."
"Now, right next to the study there, I got me a nice three piece set, probably made by Monet, or some other fancy arteeste, mostly because all you can see out my window is another Apartment's window. And that guy be starin' me down and stuff like he want's to fight or sumpin'....dude be scary..."
"All right, allright! Over here we got the Kitchen by which I mean the east end of this 16x12 foot box, now you'll notice I ain't got no Wine Bottles on the rack right now...that's got nothin' to do with my supposed DUI, or rumors of rampant alcoholism. Naw, I just had company over last week, and those dudes be drinkin' me outta house and home."
"And right here, we got the Coffee Table right in the center of the place. This where I be entertainin' my many fans and guests,...*sobs uncontrollably*...movin on..."
"And yeah, that's a Board Game, Risk! Whach 'chu know about STRATEGY, son?!"
"Yeah, this here's the Ikea, Futon/Couch....that's where all the action happens! Ha Ha! Not me cryin' myself to sleep every night in a forsaken existence of a failed rapper...naw, not like that son? Who you been talkin' too? Did Steve tell you that?"

If you look just next to it, that's an XBox case of Morrowind. Where I got the Map for my framed version.
Now that I think about it, why the heck do I still have that thing?! I ain't got no XBox, or need for it...

All I wanted was a quiet little island where I could amass troops for defense and stay out of the world wars. My son was bent on domination, and my peaceful little island was always the first thing he came shooting for. Couldn't win a battle with him, he was tricky. Couldn't win in Monopoly with him for the same reason, he was like a mad tyrant taking over properties and building hotels, always ending up with more money than the bank. Then he'd start making loans you could never pay so he could swipe up your meager properties. The only thing I could beat him in was Battleship.
Home! Finally!

Oh dear. It sounds like your son may instigate the next World War, or be leader of the New World Order....maybe both!
But, naw, in Risk....you HAVE to attack. There is no room for defensive Islands. The more territory you control, the less your opponents do.
Simple acquisition of resources and controlling the game long term. "The Art of War" applies very much here. Same thing as Starcraft. Whoever controls more of the resources, will most likely win in the long run.
That's all any War really is anyway...which your son either understands completely...or has gone drunk with power.
Run.

I don't know how it works where you are...
But I know a guy that got nearly 3 month off of work, PAID, because he was playing a drinking game where you chop beer cans with your hand. He chopped the can alright. And the can shredded his hand.
I don't want workman's comp. I want to earn the money given to me.
Your taxes pay for disability, the rest is paid by your Employer, whom in turn deducts that amount from their taxes at the end of the year.
Your disability pay, is both already earned and paid to you specifically to recover.
Oh, and you're right, that's *if* you get injured at work, my bad.
