Re: What ruined your day?
This is more like what ruined my week last week. So last Monday I was feeling really sick long story short is that I had a mild case of COVID, I took three tests, two came back positive and one I took didn't really do anything so I must have taken the test wrong. I called my doctor's office, and they told me that chances are it was COVID because the chances of getting two false negatives back-to-back is rare. So, I took a LOA (leave of absence) from work, however that's going to get denied I found out Friday because. I didn't actually go to the doctor's office so my doctor can't fill out the paperwork to say I had covid and the company that handles leaves can't accept it without her signing off.
However, I did talk to the management team yesterday when I went back to work, and it should be fine probably. Thankfully I had enough time to cover the days I missed so I won't be missing out on pay. I'm almost back to 100% now. Just mild congestion and the occasional cough and runny nose.

Sorry to hear that you have a Covid. Nasty thing. My son had a new virus variation this summer. But fortunately all things went well for him.

Re: What ruined your day?
My neighbors bought their bratty kids a stupid fucking goddamn football launcher toy that makes a loud popping noise every time it goes off. I'm sensitive to loud noises of this type and it's been going off for a straight hour now while I'm trying to work, startling me every damn time. I'm so on edge that I literally have a stomach ache. If they leave that fucking thing in their backyard overnight it's going to disappear...

Aw gross. They're really using AI? What an insult to actual artists. Where was this posted? I can't find it.Loganrules115 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 25, 2023 7:28 am Seeing AI-generated art used in advertising for G-Fest XXIX, only for criticism of it to be deleted on Facebook.

The G-FEST Facebook page’s new avatar and banners. It’s especially insulting when they’ve gutted the artist alley entirely. Hoping some big artist names pull out of the convention over this.

Their Facebook banner has the image, but what I found especially insulting is that they denied using AI art in the comments (before deleting them). Taking a quick glance at it is enough to indicate that they aren't telling the truth.Legion1979 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 25, 2023 4:05 pmAw gross. They're really using AI? What an insult to actual artists.

Re: What ruined your day?
It might sound sort pathetic on my part, but what ruined my day (or at the least brought me some sadness), was learning that the Rodan's Roost (Kaijuphile), has officially gone offline recently :/ The news just brings a heavy heart to me. The site has gone. I had so many good memories there. Aside from Barry's Temple of Godzilla and the Tohokingdom, it was my introduction to the online Godzilla community. Talked with a lot of people. Learned a lot of stuff. Read and wrote some amazing stories. But Brandon has a family now and CL Werner writes professionally for Warhammer. I can certainly see how the guys have gone on to bigger and better things. But man, that stings to see it gone I feel old now. Just an elephant that is slowly wading towards his elephant graveyard lol!
Monster Zero Forums, Ballard's Tokyo Monsters, and now the Roost. That was a lot of late 90's and early 2000's online Godzilla sites with big communities gone now. The Kingdom is the last man standing honestly.
I know it's silly stuff. The website was not updated in almost a decade, but it was nice to go back and reminisce about stuff.

Re: What ruined your day?
Ahhh man, that one does hurt. Rodan's Roost was huge for me when I found it in the early 2000s. I had very limited access to actual kaiju movies at the time, so that site's very well done kaiju stats section was a fix for some kind of kaiju content and a very educational information source. It introduced me to the 'Showa, Heisei, and (maybe?) Millennium' era titles. Prior to that, I probably just referred to them as the 'old' or 'new' movies. It was also my introduction to some of the monsters I hadn't been aware of, like Orga or Daimajin. I spent a lot of hours reading and rereading those bios. Good times. I'll miss the Roost.

Re: What ruined your day?
Barry's Temple of Godzilla was my go to place for Godzilla in the late 90s when my family got a computer. And then Monster Zero Forums was my main Godzilla place to chat with others for many many years. Fuck it's been so long.

Re: What ruined your day?
Dang, what batter did you eat? When I bake cake or brownies with the family, its kind of tradition for me to just eat up whatever's left of the batter. Can't name a time that ever gave me stomach problems.Handsome Shrek wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 2:36 pm Maybe it wasn't a good idea to eat raw brownie batter earlier. Tasted damn good though.

So i go to this gym.However i had stoped going about a few months into it do to personal reasons i did not expect.Thus i have to cancel it. However a few months later it turns out they never did cancel it, and i have been charged $80 on my card. So now i have to call the company who owns the gym and wait another month to have it canceled. And i still have to pay for the month too!
That and the job i worked for shut down and every place i try to contact of a new job never gets back with me.

Re: What ruined your day?
Nah it makes sense. Back when we first got dial up when I was a little boy Rodan’s Roost was one of the first forums I found. So much of the old internet is now nothing but dust, slowly being eaten away by corporations and social media, so I get the sense of melancholy.EarthbaragonOG wrote: ↑Thu Oct 26, 2023 3:48 am It might sound sort pathetic on my part, but what ruined my day (or at the least brought me some sadness), was learning that the Rodan's Roost (Kaijuphile), has officially gone offline recently :/ The news just brings a heavy heart to me.
