My depression and anxiety just kicked it into overdrive. Completely outta left field. Today was a seemingly normal day. So, just out of curiosity, how do you handle/manage yourself when you're depressed or anxious... or both?

What did you think of the Justice League movie?
Answered: Oct 6, 2018
I have not seen it.
Not that I haven't wanted to... But I can't say I wouldn't enjoy watching it.
I have a very unique point of view when it comes to watching movies. I do not watch all of the trailers for movies I am excited about. I enjoyed BVS. I enjoyed Suicide Squad. I've enjoyed every "new" Star Wars film... Mostly because I wasn't "hyped" for them. I watch the first trailer/teaser. Then I avoid toy aisles/ magazine aisles, TV spots, any other trailers/ advertisements, etc. I do my best to not learn anything about the movie. I don't set my expectations high. I do the opposite. I leave anything I expect to see at the door when I enter a theater.
When JL came out, I was supposed to go see it with my wife but the babysitter backed out.
I can't say I wouldn't enjoy watching it because I'm a huge DC fan... And a Justice League film has been in "the works" since the late 90's.
For a long time, I expected I would never see the DC universe make a stand again. While it wasn't critically acclaimed and got bad reviews. I still want to see it.

Questions
Hard-hitting: Parents recoil at the thought of someone dating their child at any age. When the right time comes, how do you think you'd like to handle it versus how you think you'd actually handle it?
Answered: Oct 6, 2018
How I'd like to handle it: I'm willing to be accepting of the person at first. But first, second, and third, impressions matter to me. If my daughter(s) love you, I'll make the attempt to see what she sees in you.
If you hurt my daughter... You'll probably never see her again. Because I will do everything in my power to stop that from happening. I reserve the right to remove them completely from your life.
If you made a mistake and that mistake hurt her. You're done. 1 strike, you're out.
How I'd probably handle it: Stef... He's here again... Should I get the bat?

Questions
If you could design a gaming pub/bar (tabletop, video game, etc.) with no budget limits, what are the features that you would require it to have (aside from self-cleaning restrooms)?
Answered: Oct 6, 2018
I would greatly enjoy a tabletop D&D/ Fate style game based off of RWBY. Create your own characters, designing their semblance, building your weapons, etc.

Questions
Have you found the tacos?
Answered: Oct 6, 2018
I am constantly on the quest for the most delicious tacos. I cannot divulge if I have found the best tacos... or just average tacos. It's a never ending quest... A blessing and a curse if you will.

Questions
What kind of water do you drink? Bottle, tap, or other (what other?)?
Answered: Oct 6, 2018
Normally tap. Preferably filtered from tap and on ice.
I don't mind bottled water but it isn't really good for you. and I hate the taste of water that has been "Purified and enhanced by minerals"

I never tend to pay attention when it comes to my personality because that's just me.
| Asked by: EricHVela 9 months ago
I have a select few friends that I would also want to save. Which I guess would probably include as much of their families as possible...
| Asked by: Lamkia 11 months ago
I did not! Soon I'll be getting a fitness tracker (wee have a big discount through work) and once we have Violet I plan on working out much more. Not only for my fitness, but also my sanity.
| Asked by: Jianju 11 months ago
The internet is a weird place...
| Asked by: EricHVela 11 months ago
You mean "The Dark SIde Cave"? or "Cave of Evil"
The Dark Side of the force would probably show me the death of my family. My first instinct is fear and how to figure out how to stop it. The actual response is "there is nothing I can do"
Love them while we're all still here.
It's now the end of the world as we know it. Describe the event, preferably with soundtrack.
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
Dang... did they ever describe what happened to the world in Book of Eli? Might be one of my favorite "apocalyptic wasteland" movies.
Fury Road was fantastic too.
The Road was a better book than a movie... If I remember correctly.
Then there are zombie apocalypse movies... Man.
I'm sorry... What was the question?
That's right...
Alright. Nuclear radiation hits earth. Some people are radiated, mutated and driven insane due to their exposure. The Muties come out at night and attack what human survivors are left. They retreat below the earth's surface during the day. And the soundtrack... Conscious hip hop (Talib Kweli, Mos Def, De La Soul, Common, Tribe Called Quest, Tupac)

I have a weird shaped head... So two type of hats really work.
A beanie and a baseball cap.
Probably a beanie. Because cold weather and all that... If it gets warm you can just take it off.
This one is nice...

Trick question.
a 'woodchuck' (another name for groundhog) is actually bastardized from the Native American word for the animal: Wuchak.

Recommend a book. Just pick one.
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
Sh*t. Give me a minute. It's gotta be a classic... And it has to be iconic... And it has to be something that won't make me look like a douche.
The Watchmen.
Final answer.
D&D: How could I play an evil character in an entertaining and non-frustrating-everyone way?
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
Are you worrying about irritating the players or the characters?
If it's the players: You slip your DM frequent notes. Sometimes for nothing. While it can be irritating to the players... They won't necessarily know what's your fault and what isn't
If it's the characters: That's easy. You lie. If you're found out divulge half the truth and cover your trail.
Your thoughts are now narrated internally by which actor/actress?
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
Christopher Walken.
Because... Who doesn't... Want to hear this voice... In their head... all day?
Ignoring the fact that a Ninja Turtle punched Hitler, which Ninja Turtle is the best?
| Asked by: EricHVela 1 year ago
Which Ninja Turtle is the best? The answer is easy, friend.
All of them.
You have the leader: Leonardo who is courageous, honor bound, and loyal.
You have the muscle: Raphael who is strong, fierce, and sarcastic.
You have the joker: Michelangelo who is fun-loving, free-spirited, and creative.
Then you have the brains: Donatello who is an inventor, intellectual, and caring.
But if you wanted to know my favorite? Raphael. Easy.
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
I would say Iron Giant... But I cry like a baby when I watch that movie... Maybe Alan Rickman's portrayal of Marvin in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. If my toaster was horribly depressed and sounded like Alan Rickman... I could be happy again.
Would you ever consider having a theme costume that your whole family would be partake in?
| Asked by: Lamkia 1 year ago
Depending on a theme. I thought about trying a Game of Thrones themed baby announcement but Stef hasn't watched or read it so she said she wouldn't get it.
If you could spend a full day with anyone (Dead or Alive) Who would it be and what would you two do?
| Asked by: DrHairz 1 year ago
Sh*t... This is seriously tough.
Maybe Grant Morrison. He's a Scottish comic book author who has written some of the most bizarre but awesome storylines for Batman ever. Perhaps one of the cooler ideas was Bruce's disappearance. Non-Spoiler: Batman goes away for quite some time. Damian Wayne stays on as Robin but is very serious, dark and brooding (much like Bruce Wayne) but Dick Grayson becomes Batman is his normal talkative, smart alecky, upbeat self. So the roles are reversed.
If you could own a weapon from history (real or mythical), what would you choose?
| Asked by: Joron093 1 year ago
You said real or mythical? Why would I ever pick "real"?
Let's see in Celtic mythology there is Fragarach which was able to cut through any armor, no man can recover if it pierces their skin, you cannot move or lie as long as the blade was at your neck, and it had the ability to control winds... Pretty dope.
In Norse mythology there is Thor's mighty hammer, Mjölnir. Which could never be destroyed and also returned to Thor whenever he threw it. Hopefully my version would return to me and not Thor...
Charlemagne's soldier Roland wielded Durendal. The sword was said to contain a tooth from Saint Peter, hair from Saint Denis, part of the clothing of the Virgin Mary, and blood from Saint Basil. It was also claimed to be the sharpest sword to ever exist. Roland and his small army was able to withstand a push from an army 100,000 strong with Durendal.
Ruyi Jingu Bang is the legendary staff wielded by non other than Sun Wukong, The Monkey King it shrank or grew according to the users will.
and lastly Pashupatastra is the deadliest weapon in Hindu mythology. The weapon owned by Shiva which is said to destroy anyone and anything. It can be fired by the mind, the eyes, using words, or even a bow. That's right... The weapon is a single arrow.
If I had to absolutely choose... I'd pick Fragarach. Because it's dope.
| Asked by: EricHVela 1 year ago
That's tough... If I got to pick, I'd pick zombie... I know how cliche that sounds but I think this is one I could do. I had a few years in boy scouts, Ran track and cross country for multiple years, Have access to weaponry and know MOST of the cops in the area where I live, I know how to arm myself if need be.
and after reading the Zombie Survival Guide, World War Z, and The Zombie Combat Manual through and through, I would say that that is my best shot.
| Asked by: Ratatoskr 1 year ago
I've actually been kicking around an idea for a youtube show similar to The Guild. A group of 30-somethings who have been friends since high school play videogames together. When they get online to play we see all 4 of them in a splitscreen but from the point of view OF the TV. So we see all 4 of them sitting on their couches playing games with each other.
I need to get some character and story outlines together...
It would have to be a comedy show.

I did quit. But started back up again recently... I need to quit again.
I lost a bit of weight, I felt a bit healthier but not much else. My body went through the ringer for a while. Once it regulated after not needing the caffeine it felt... different. I didn't need the caffeine but I wasn't more energetic either.
If you won the lottery how would you spend the money?
| Asked by: DrHairz 1 year ago
Depends on how much...
1. buy off the debt on the house we're in now.
2. Move into new bigger house within our price range
3. New bigger vehicle (in case we have more kids.)
4. College fund for Ru
5. All the tattoos I can afford.
| Asked by: EricHVela 1 year ago
Not really. Kids get sick... It's something that happens. I'm not much of a worrier when it comes to that sort of thing. She does get pretty miserable when she's sick though... She just wants to be held.

Sadly no. He uses Meander until he hits level 30. Then he evolves into Flyreon. Then he can learn all da attacks.
I hit level 30 in 6 days...
Do you have any tattoos? If not would you consider getting one? If so of what?
| Asked by: DrHairz 1 year ago
I currently have 4 tattoos. I want so many more.
1. One representing Ruby, and adding 3 solid bands on my right arm.
2. Get the Yang symbol on my left shoulder...
3. Greg Capullo's Bat/Joker laughing symbol.
Etc, etc, etc

I'd ask my mother why she always comes across as cold and emotionless.
| Asked by: EricHVela 1 year ago
I don't think I could do it. Ruby is at that age where she's making friends... Raising a child on Mars without any other kids would be terrible for her socially.
You know what Elton John says:
Mars ain't the type of place to raise your kids.
| Asked by: ninjacake 1 year ago
*cracks knuckles*
I thought you'd never ask. I know that she has a youtube account called Chez Lindsay and that she has a twitter account known as @TheLindsayEllis. She has also been known to go as "Nostalgia Chick" from what I've gathered from my sources(Google).
She's actually rather cute when she... Well, isn't looking like this.
Do you have any superstitions surrounding general life?
| Asked by: LCPeter 1 year ago
Not really. I find that if you don't believe in superstitions and don't buy into the number 13, black cats, and walking under ladders nothing bad ever comes from it.
What's your favourite board game/ tabletop game/ card game? (anything that falls into that category)
| Asked by: LCPeter 1 year ago
1. Magic The Gathering
2. Dungeons and Dragons
3. Clue

Umm... Possibly? I might be able to get you a job in southern Illinois near St. Louis. But anywhere else might be a chore. I am willing to be a reference for you though. Althought most of those are supposed to be "professional" acquantances.

If we're talking about general honorifics I'd pick Duke or Earl (because of My Name Is Earl)
But If it can be anything that I choose... it would have to be really awesome. Like The Hammer. Or He who was formally known as

I prefer tanks. So Barbarians, Fighters, or Paladins. Although I am not opposed to playing something completely out of my comfort zone like Ranger, Rogue, Druid or even Bard...
So here's the majority of my character sheet for my half-Orc barbarian.
That was before I starting carving notches into my maul for kills...
I just want to play D&D... I don't really care about what class or build...
Any further word on you and Mrs. Fly making the trip to RTX?
| Asked by: Joron093 1 year ago
Nothing solid.
Might not be this year... We'd have to travel with Ru or find someone able to watch her for the weekend and we haven't been away from home with or without her.
Do you have a favorite story that you like to read to Ruby?
| Asked by: Lamkia 1 year ago
Goodnight Moon is one of her favorites. She likes Dr. Seuss books as well. Probably because she likes to listen to dad sound like an idiot. She just likes being read to. She gets this goofy smile on her face and relaxes.
How are the workout sessions going?
| Asked by: LCPeter 1 year ago
Less frequent. Work has become a bummer that saps practically all of my energy while there. Ruby is constantly into everything and she has started climbing the couch, and I hurt my back pretty badly about a month ago. It's gotten better but it tends to act up pretty bad every once in a while.
What's your favorite comic-book location? What is one you would choose to live in/at?
| Asked by: AgentWashingtub008 1 year ago
Heroic Adventures in Illinois. They're graphic novel/ trade paperback selection is immense. If they don't have it they can try to get it for you. If I had to choose I might pick The Secret Stash
