  1. SL still needs a Torley to do YouTube videos with neat tips and tricks, newer features, etc.
  2. Most of the time people are just using static poses when they're standing still. There are pose AOs out there though. Stun poses makes really nice standing poses. They also do "breathing" standing poses, which are subtly animated static poses.
  3. It tastes like meat really, like eating a skirt steak...it’s just a little more chewy than regular meat. what I do is cube it up and salt it. Throw some flour on and brown it. Chop up my veggies and herbs (thyme and rosemary) throw it all in a crock pot with some red wine. 1) your house is going to smell fantastic. 2) let it slow cook overnight, by the time you’re ready to eat it the next day, you wouldn’t know it was beef heart unless some one told you. 3) it’s super easy to make and it’s really like a comfort food in the winter.
  4. Oh come on, a nice beef heart stew with some nice root veggies on a cold day doesn’t sound good?
  5. It basically means they will be showing someone what you said.....a lot. I avoid people like that.
  6. I like offal: beef heart stew, grilled chicken hearts, chicken gizzards, even tripe. I’d even eat hog’s head cheese (didn’t know what it was at first). Gotta draw the line at something. Anything that smells that bad, just can’t do it.
  7. They smell exactly like intestines too 🤮
  8. Grilled anchovies are great!!!! On pizza though.....nah
  9. Unpopular opinion: I think the slap fights that happen here are goofy, yet hilarious...even when I’m involved in them.
  10. The thing about shopping for clothes in SL is it’s seasonal. This is actually a good time to find things that would cover more. So you’re going to find more jeans, pants, sweaters, longer dresses. That leaves one problem. Footwear. Sandals are going to be harder to find because they’re not in season. It would be like shopping for a bikini now. Sure you can find them, it would just be better to shop in main stores. It’s one of the reasons I was saying sometimes it’s better to shop in a store’s main store instead of events. There’s a wider variety in main stores. There’s always good places that sell nice sandals. Some of the ones I like are: Gos, Hucci, Reign, Empire, Tetra. There’s a lot of other stores, it’s just harder to remember when I’m not logged into SL. Which is usually the case when I’m on the forums. Try those.
  11. It’s nice to take a little break. That’s what I treat it as. I’m really surprised we switched so fast. We still use telnet connected to a mainframe.
  12. We upgraded to windows 10 at my office last Thursday and Friday. I logged out last night and got “update and restart” “update and shut down”. At least it didn’t force the update while I was working.
  13. Guess it depends on if you can relate to being a Mug blood or not.
  14. Well, who hasn’t read Harry Potter? A lot of anime and manga deals with these kinds of issues too. You start seeing the same archetypes after a while. I don’t think I’ve ever run into a Draco Malfoy in real life. It’s a pretty awkward age for everyone. I’d really love to see a story from a Bully’s perspective. There was a YA novel called CRASH by Jerry Spinelli that comes pretty close. The kid was kind of a butt in the beginning, but it kind of levels out and he’s a normal kid with issues by the end. My school life was closer to Degrassi, maybe with a little Euphoria thrown in, than John Hughes. Someone had to go through something like that for those kinds of stories to be popular.
  15. You know what’s funny about this? Me and my husband were watching one of those John Hughes movies. We started talking about all of those high school movies where the kids are super cruel and there’s a jock group, nerd group, pretty girl group, stoner group, misfit group. That just wasn’t our experience, he went to school in NYC and I went to school in Montreal, but they make the best movies.
  16. I’m probably the odd one out, but I’ve pretty much fit in anywhere I go. The closest thing to not fitting in was when I was just starting school, I got made fun of because of my hair. My mother really didn’t know what to do with it or how to do it. So it kind of looked like a bird’s nest for a little while. She learned though and everything was fine. I wasn’t super popular, but I had really good friends all throughout school. I’ve always been kind of arty, so I went to an art school and I fit in again. When I started the job I have now, I started with another woman and they call us “Sun and Moon”. My supervisor told me she felt like I fit in right away. That probably gives an idea of my personality. I wouldn’t consider myself an introvert though, more of an ambivert. I think everybody feels like they don’t fit in to some extent. Especially in a lot of social situations.
