So, basic rundown of my day. This is a 100% TRUE account of what happened.
Selling a guy some cards, go to meet him outside a pizza place.
Someone else shows up, is going to mug me if I don't give him my phone
I attempt to reason with him
He's having a bad day, I empathise
Find out he's been in jail 5 years and this is his first time out of his tiny rural hometown.
Got dumped by his girlfriend, lost custody of his daughter
He apologizes repeatedly for trying to mug me, we have a long-ass conversation. He apologizes again and leaves to go mug someone else. BUT WAIT, THAT'S NOT ALL.
See him a few hours later in town, have a sesh with the guy that tried to mug me earlier that day.
Woke up
Was Dizzy
Couldnt focus and vision was getting blurry and wavy around edges
Phone company decided to disconnect me today rather than tuesday when they'll be switching it to the new house.
Got dizzy again, ""
Got massive headache/migraine
Compared to yours, my life apparently is the epitome of dullness. Had to do a short speech today (meaningIgottotalkincrediblyfastwithoutpunctuationorbreaksforbreathing), which worked out quite well, and tomorrow, I'll plant a 4 meter high walnut tree. The fun will start with transporting it ...
Regrettably, the gun laws in New Zealand dictate you render yourself completely helpless to anyone who wants to mug you.
It's just lucky my proverbial "pen" was mightier than the sword, and I ended up psyching him out of doing it. People are far, far less likely to commit a crime against someone once they have been shown to be "3-Dimensional," so I just subtly dropped in information about myself and got him talking. Then I went for a sesh with him because showing a criminal kindness creates the mental association that "not mugging this kid and taking his **** resulted in a positive experience."
Hopefully that means nobody gets robbed by him for a little while, at least
@Aqualad, Prince of Dolphins: No Azor's Elocutors?
Misse this one. No, I don't pack my playset of elocutors. Too suscitiple to removal (I pack verdict and terminus) so keeping it around doesn't help me. Rather drop a PWs or just sit tight. I play quick my game plan is simple. Rack up cards via Tamiyo or Atlas and get my Psychic Spiral to finish it. Still working in the sideboard for the mirror and switching to control with latege finishers. WIP
My most successful pile is some brew that makes Empyrial Plate stick to a flier with lifelink (Yeah that narrows it down doesn't it). Assisted by Dimir Infiltrator to make that happen every game.
You know what you folks oughta have? A PR guy.

I have never considered suicide an option and it always makes me sad to hear people taking the easy way out.
I find calling suicide an "easy way out" incredibly insulting to the people who have commited it. Having known people who have done it I will always believe it is in no way an "easy way out".
They are my favourite band of all time ever I got my shirt signed by Tommy and Blake, and got Paul's pick. Got a photo with Tommy too, waiting to get it off a mate's phone!
Also shook hands with Tosin Abasi, that was awesome!

Well, considering his taste in cars (even if its that style... sorry aja, im a 70's purist or modern purist.... I still love it though), you cant be too bad...
Just post and you'll probably get in. Our standards are pretty lax, seeing as we let Tom in

Let us see that list.
@aja, no turkey sammiches at my house. I had an eight pound turkey, and nothing is left.
I hope everyone stayed safe.
Anyone hit any crazy black Friday sales, yet?

My town is infamous for teen suicide, it's really tragic

I'm not a fan of the stereo-typical mad rush that really does happen in a lot of stores where I live.
If it's not too crowded I don't mind saving a little bit of money on things I guess, but usually it is too crowded.
