Sure, but they had to start somewhere. Reach is the 6th Halo game.

Green is the universal color of soldiers. The regular soldiers in Halo were wearing green. Master Chief's armor was green because he was a soldier. It made perfect sense to me.

Yeah, this. I have medications I need. When the pair of contacts in my eyes fall out eventually, I'm functionally blind. All that aside, I'd probably starve quickly since I don't know how to make weapons ~~and other humans haven't made it to where I live yet in 1375~~ nevermind, I'm high. The humans that are there would probably kill me on sight though.

I'd probably look around for a couple days and then when I got super hungry just find a cliff to jump off.

You can name some upcoming events between 1375-1376 that would get you enough fame to make a living, off the top of your head?

It's white collar crime. They'll pay a fine which will mean nothing to them, and nobody will go to jail. That's how it works.

He should know, he's the one that put a shotgun in its mouth over a decade ago.

Yeah, this is the part where the Nazis were rounding up the gypsies. That's where we are right now.

You’ve got upper management written all over you.

We need a decent replacement for this, stat. Once they go into IPO mode it's gonna get real shitty, real fast.

Indeed. I would put the odds somewhere around 79.4%.

Counterpoint- all sports are silly. That’s why they are called games.

I don’t dunk on wrestling fans anymore because people are free to enjoy whatever they want. But it’s always been like this. It didn’t change - you did. Personal growth!

I mostly played video games in between intense bursts of productivity to get work done.

Yes, I was doing this before remote work was a thing. You just have to be slick. I once set up a "lab" of three PCs to "test some new software" in a back room and then played Birth of the Federation on one of them while the other two ran perf counter output, for 3 months straight. This was an act of desperation to keep my mind busy. They had laid almost everyone off in the company so I didn't have much to do, but it started a tradition that carried me all the way to retirement!

 

I would love to hear stories about how you came up with whatever unique name you call your SO. Nothing graphic and don’t doxx yourself, I just think some nice stories like that would be fun for everyone in these ridiculous times.
