I left Unilever with about 2 years worth of free Axe shower gel. I have since run out, and only use Old Spice now

LOL
When I was a lad, came back from a camping tripGǪ Buddy and I were supposed to meet some people but were running late. Hit the shopping centre and grabbed a sample of Old Spice. Thinking yeah okay we smell better now.

Girl says " you smell like my Grandpa"

My classes got cancelled today due to snow.

So, I'm watching TV, finishing some homework and just milling about

On the Physics professor:

I wish my teachers were that cool

went to talk to a friend and within 2 minutes I heard her saying...you smell kinda like my dad. X(

After work I smell like Earl Grey tea.

I smell like wine.

I smell like wine.

I smell like french fries and shame after work.

If we look closely into this. I smell of dried leaves and you smell of off grapes crushed by French feet.

Its only shame if you leave college to make a career out of it.

He smells like wine because he spilled it on himself., is that why you smell of tea?

My manager graduated from college and made a career out of it.

He SAYS he has a Bachelors in Cellular and Molecular Biology, but that Being a fast food manager pays better......

I'm not entirely convinced.

Hey, at least you've got a daily job.

*snip stuff*

Plasma cannon-needs a significant increase in damage to around 3000 direct, all other stats stay the same.

Not daily, I work part time. 20 hours a week at best (Hours got cut after Obamacare was implemented. THANKS OBAMA). It's also so mentally un-stimulating it's not even funny.

I complain about my job a lot, but that's only because I'm not paid what I should be. I'm still getting minimum wage when I routinely outperform my co-workers despite only having been here for a year.

I help the managers take inventory because most can't do mental math to save their life (and nobody can find the calculator because nobody knows how to put things back where they find them)

I keep reminding people above me on the chain of command about the proper way to fix a problem (fix the cause, not the symptom). I still end up fixing half the problems on my shift (Fixing the drain on the sinks, problems with the CO2 system and soda, putting doors back together because people slam them and bolts come off, etc. etc. etc. )

And despite all of this, they decide that my "raise" I get after a year of working there was the $0.25 raise to minimum wage that EVERYONE got.

I'm gonna keep the job for the semester, and the NOPE the F**K outta there during the summer. My dad is gonna try and get me a job where he works as a mechanics assistant. $10-12 an hour and roughly 40 hours a week. I should pull enough money to afford next years tuition and possibly move out.

Until then? Grit my teeth and wait it out.

/Rant

I promise to never bring up my job AGAIN.

SOMETHING SOMETHING BOOK

A book?

What's it about?

Can I read it?

I can even get my sister to read it if you want. She is 1 semester away from her Creative Writing degree, and is writing some books of her own.

Nothing like feedback right?

Yes, I've written short stories for a bit, and now that I feel I kind of have some experience with writing I decided to give a novel a shot, hopefully to turn into a series. What's the worst that could happen?

I'm still detailing the whole thing, but it'll be something along the lines of a space exploration Sci-Fi. Detailing first encouters with aliens and the tension it causes back on earth. Possibly something like that. Still highly changable.

Sure, if you want I guess you could start reading some of it when I have a few chapters done, help me develop it.

I like most of this. The part about the plasma cannon that bothers me is that at the 1050 dmg range, the boost of 100 dmg or so (1155 at proto from 1050 at standard, 28 more splash damage as well)) is pretty small relative to the damage you're doing. The limiting factors are the arc, projectile travel time, reload, and limited ammo. Nothing else changes with proto except you pay 46 more cpu for that 100 more damage (that's less than a complex damage mod, mind you... but you can get full mileage out of the Plasma Cannon while not skilling into it basically). For what the weapon is/does, the scaling across tiers seemed less useful. It would be better if the damage didn't change at all, and you got some other sort of statistical compensation to make up for weapon faults in some way.

A damage boost to 3000 would scale proto damage to 3300 (with spash not changing I suppose). This would make it absurdly good at AV (with splash damage the same, it would probably remain "as" good at being a super shotgun/anti-personnel) numbers-wise, aside from the usual problems of actually hitting something. The tier scaling is still mostly unimportant.

With max proficiency and 3 damage mods, a STD Plasma Cannon would do 4360 dmg with 3000 damage base. Same stats, but using the PRO Cannon at 3300 damage base gets you 4796 damage. That's a 400 damage difference, to be sure, but the limiting factors are still going to be your ability to actually hit things. Any person would be dead with just the one shot either way (I'm inclined to say that 3 dmg mods + prof 5 and a std would kill any person with a direct hit and current damage anyway). The splash damage would be just as limited as it is now. With a vehicle, the numbers difference isn't typically going to be the difference between one-shotting or two-shotting it. You'll either be able to land two shots, or you won't...

I'd rather see some adjustment to the weapon function to make it more practical to use, or failing that, some alteration of the weapon across tiers to make skilling into it more appealing than just stacking damage mods to save SP.
