    Think I got nerve damage in my shoulder.  My shoulder has been causing me issues for years.  I've gotten "treatment" for it but it didnt help long term.  Fuckin' doctors.

    That's kind of informative, because I've had problems with my left shoulder for 24 years. I swung as hard as I could with my left shoulder against someone that I've hated much at the time, but it popped out. It hasn't been the same since of feeling occasional pain and popping out several times after. Recently, it almost popped out and I've been favoring it until it stabilizes somewhat, especially on doing 3 to 4 hour exercises when I can. 

     

    At this point, I rather tough it out and other anatomy issues I had by owning up to them, like the consequences to overexercising addictions, starvation diets, and being severely underweight in the past from anorexic issues. Without any vitamin supplements or something better, I would feel the grave effects without it on the harsh methods that I've inflicted.

    How is that interesting? You got beef?

     

    'Cause if there was a day for it, this is a great one. I've been handing out Grade A Tomahawk Steaks at family members all day.

     

    We grillin' off of pure verbal heat today, boys.

     

    I found you amusing when SRK was in place at the time. I was an observer and more so with the more primitive days of SRK.

     

    I hope you've been having a good time so far, though.

  3. I'm taking my Dad out to Bourbon Heat on bourbon street at the beginning of the Father's Day month, after our reconnection from acknowledging our critical past life mistake between us. Having been there a couple of times prior to the pandemic, the restaurant is have highly energetic employees and compassionate. They cook outside in front of you and the food range of doneness and flavor is where it should be measuring my cooking experience to their own. You can allow pets, singing, and dancing now. I never felt like I belong somewhere this much.

     

    I'm also going to start dating for the first time, after learning from someone that it's possible for me to actually be attracted to someone's personality, than the predominant lust of sexual purposes alone. I thank that person for that.

    I will give the free version a shot, I actually have no nostalgia for the EX franchise besides being aware of Skullomania but I love fighting games despite not having the skill hell I got like 80% of the major non free fighting games on the Switch.

    I've spent up to 500 dollars worth of fighting games and chess problem solving games also for the system, but can't re-obtain what I've lost. I find it more preferable to just spend my days by wanting to be amused and relish the company of those that are precious to me. 

  5. I've finally gotten ahold of Blade Arcus Rebellion from Shining, which have Shining Force characters at the ready. I like it, I guess, and comes with characters from the automatic DLC update. It is by the same developers of Blade Strangers. I should by Shining Resonance Refrain.

    Two things stand out from your post: you saying that you feel like you aren't capable of quitting for good; and having withdrawals.  First- AA is designed so you don't have to do it alone.  That's one of the biggest reasons it is successful.  Secondly- if you are having withdrawals from alcohol then that means your body is starting to physically need it to function.  That's a scary threshold to cross and my advice would be to do something about it before it gets really messy.  My best friend was hospitalized when he quit.  He would have died without medical attention.  Unfortunately, that's a lot more common than you might think.  Maybe next time you're bored, instead of having a drink check out your local meeting directory and see if it's something you might be into or not.

    I did go to a substance abuse program for 5 weeks. I wasn't ready at the time and to break free from long term isolation, which is another trigger for me to use. I could stop temporarily for up to a month at the least, which I've practiced many times, but the mental agitation and bodily discomfort of that short duration is always unpleasant. This year, I have some organ damage, chronic coughing, and have to keep myself from throwing up after eating or drinking water. This occurs seconds after.

     

    My health department is going to open back up next month. I'll see if I could go back and graduate from that program.

    I'm no wise sage, but I've been through the steps and they worked for me.  It took a lot of arrows in my ass for me to finally take the first step, which was admitting that my life was no longer manageable because of alcohol. I needed to quit more than I needed anything.  That desperation and willingness to be honest is what saved me. When I was in that state of incomprehensible demoralization I thought there was no fucking way life would ever be good again. 

     

    I was dead wrong.  But it took a lot of work to make the necessary changes.  Life is awesome now.

    I see. I mean, this is all heart felt for me, but I tend to feel that I don't measure up to the resolve, as if I'm not capable of permanently exiling from using. I started drinking, because of not feeling loved, being manipulated, and the despair of ineffective/unappealing guidance, which in turn wasted much of my life. Even with getting over most of this, drinking seem to be a tool for boredom or when I've exceed the tolerance of withdrawal.

    No Americans are not very religious at all. We are posers. 

    Heh. Indeed. You've said it. The "posing" example is when one of my family members tried to harm me as a minor for not confirming to their faith. That was never loving in any sense of the term and was contrary to the book of faith that they practice. It was nothing but power, fear, and control with them over me growing up. 

     

    Even I like where this country is going, especially when I'm not straight and anti-religious. That wouldn't slide in places like Russia, Arabic parts, or most of Africa. I can only name at the very least 10 countries of Africa that it's ok to be yourself.

    Step Two: We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

     

    There's a way out.

    Hopefully, I could potentially understand that one day, though, I've stopped drinking frequently. As you know, being around that from a daily career could make me go backwards again, yet, the strong connection to them could keep me from going job to job of the dissatisfaction and the vast lack of interest in things. 

     

    What is good or what is bad? They seem to be two sides of the same coin. 

     

    It's strange, but I consider you to be a wise sage on this subject that I could learn from, which I recall having this conversation with you before in this topic. ^_^

  10. I think when push comes to shove, I'll obtain permits to alcohol and taboo control for hospitality and/or be apart of marijuana industry if it becomes legal in Louisiana. This is a back up plan if I don't feel confident at attending college for the purpose of owning a business, due to the inheritance of cognitive and anecdotal alcohol damages to the brain. It's pretty embarrassing to talk about, but it a race against the clock for me in the next 2 1/2 years.

    From now on, I'll remember I'm not trying to be everyone's friend.  I'm trying to be a trusted colleague of certain people who share and work spreading our mutual love of buttons.

    Don't be hard on yourself. From someone who was forced in sexual positions growing up from my timeline, I always thought that "raping someone" in fighting games was a bit cringe worthy, but people are capable of making their mistakes less. No one is perfect and the self-righteous need to take a long look at themselves.

    I get it if you don't like what they did in terms of changes, but to say there's no innovation???

     

    Come on man, that's straight up not true.

    Well, I apologize for being one of those gaming hipsters. 😛 

     

    I just think that the past already established much of everything, which I have a bad habit of dismissing what came after.

    Old game good, new game bad.  

     

    This reminds me of the time I was watching omito stream the strive beta and the chat was trying to get him to say how bad the game was compared to +R.  And he was like "Strive is way better than +R".  This wasn't the response they were looking for lol.

    The old games for me, it's more toward the variety of creativity established in the 1990s and 1980s. I also think that with balance, is why I hold Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting and certain Virtua Fighter games at high regard, moreover, the pre-super era with the others that can be honorable mentions. 

     

    I'm well aware that I've spent up to 500 dollars worth of more recent generation games in current times, which led to the misfortunate of buyer's remorse, falsely hoping for the best. Either way, everyone should play what they like, though, without the elitist views.

     

    (Also, I have GGXXAC+R, but due to the lack of innovation afterwards, it's more likely for me to not migrate to the games after.)

    You liking it more wasnt what confused me. It was you saying its "More refined and complete." 

     

    Like enjoy busted broken shit all you want but that description of Marvel 1 barely makes sense lol. 

    Maybe I'm goofy like that. It just felt better to me. More refreshing in atmosphere and the overall feel in gameplay. I can't understand it myself LOL.

    It was even more broken, busted and goofy as fuck then Marvel 2 or 3. that opinion confuses the fuck outta me hahaha. 

    LOL, I can accept that confusion. I tend to ignore broken mechanics/tier lists in more recent times and see where the chips fall in random select. In the earlier days though, I've always had a hilarious view of "the better the unbalance, the greater the depth" for me. Times have changed. XD

    I told ya'all, don't vaccinate without vitamin C

     

    http://orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v11n09.shtml

    I've heard of this somewhere. I had to look at the back of the Vita Fusion Multivitamin Gummies, which I take daily for treatment to severe fatigue, joint problems, and weak immunity from past harsh exercising methods, starvation diets, and anorexia. The ingredients lack Vitamin C, but recommends me to take some form of it. 

     

    I appreciate this, though. You're cool.

  17. I think my only symptoms from the covid vaccine are loss of appetite mostly, heavy brain fog for a week, and temporary migraines, from the consistent coughing I've had since the ulcer issue from blood vomiting a few months ago.

     

    Hopefully the weed expansion in Louisiana becomes a reality. It was interesting seeing the attempt for the decriminalization of prostitution. I'm not knocking anyone for sex work, but that isn't for me anymore.
