boba (with boba)

The self-order kiosk at this tea place has a sign taped to it (paraphrased): “Dear Customers, every drink with the word boba in the title comes WITH boba. Every drink with the word jelly in the title comes WITH jelly.” lmao you can tell they’ve had a lot of issues with people ordering (extra) boba i...

...once you are erased from our memory

A couple things I forgot to mention about last week’s raid: First, newbie was gatekeeping Japanese car fandom. We were talking about “memories of Titan” and how Gaia should turn into a car, which is the most iconic Titan mechanic. Dante said, “I think a Japanese car is what I want to go with.” Then ...

y'all better stop

Walking back from lunch, I stopped at a red light. Guy next to me with a cane just kept walking into the street against the light. “Y’all better stop!” he yelled in the direction of oncoming traffic. It did work. No one ran him over.

boylunches pt. 3: this is the end

In today’s Walmart delivery, we accidentally got a bunch of stuff that we didn’t order. I caught one of the bags and sent it back with the delivery guy (despite him saying “all this stuff is yours”), but a couple other stray bags slipped in. We got brussel sprouts, various Lean Cuisine meals, turkey...

our utopia will only be complete...

Still progging Eden’s Promise. Raid was pretty much a nothing burger this weekend. We entered with a solid strategy for lions, and exited without ever having successfully executed it. It’s not like we got in a lot of good practice on the lions, either. We just kept dying before getting there. Import...

frypan finds a home

Sometimes I feel like my entire life is hovering over the boydinner threshold. For instance: In December, Mom was like, “What should I get you for Christmas? Do you want a new frypan?” I was like, “No thanks, I already got one.” She said, “But this one is really good, it’s nonstick.” I let her know ...

innocent mind

Thinking about my last encounter with a cop. This was at the train station, pre-pandemic. I arrived at the station a bit early and decided to do a Pokemon Go raid. To reach the gym, you have to stand in a side passage near a service door, so I did that. Also, I was walking in place to farm Fitbit st...

boylunches pt. 2: master of blood and shadows

alternate entry titles: no salvation for the sons of man; full comboed by bats; the harbinger of your demise; party in bot lane; this is the end  It hasn’t escaped my notice that my Snorlax has better meal planning than I do. I’ve mastered the art of low-effort meals that are just above the boy...

boylunches

newbie is always introducing us to new concepts and vocabulary. Last week, it was the concept of “boylunch.” “Okay,” he announced, “snack turned into really sad boylunch.” “Wh-what's a boylunch?” said numbers. “It’s like a hodgepodge of shit lying around that you make when you’re hungry and don’t fe...

meal planning

Planning out some dishes that are slightly better than my usual Caesar salad/cheeseburger curry. The goal is to consistently make these dishes for every meal, regardless of zone. DESSERT: chocolate cake (9 honey, 8 cacao, 7 milk)#1: Kaiser the Venusaur (mono honey)#2: Cadbury the Blastoise (milk/cho...

memories of shiva

I blame raid for the weather. We had an extreme cold snap back when we were originally progging Shiva. Now we’re on to Eden’s Promise: Eternity, who is all like “Memories of Shiva…” and we’ve got another cold snap. For a while, it felt like the weather was trolling me personally, because it got warm...

the flame sorcerer power fantasy

We heard yelling from inside an abandoned cathedral and went to investigate. We found seven or eight kobold looters in a room, all of whom were drunk on firewine, meaning they would explode if killed with fire. We all did typical things: Ilanis, our bard, cast an AoE hypnotize that put five of the k...
