Didn't have to tell anyone. This happened in the middle of class - full of witnesses.

Dude took advantage of the substitute teacher's lack of attention to take issue with me grading their test. With their fists.

I think the teacher turned around after about the eighth or ninth punch to the face. Good job.

Frequently. I was a pretty meek person in high school and didn't really have any kind of physical advantage.

I took a beating or three. Never took a return swing, which confused the hell out of my school's zero-tolerance policies. (Hey, I didn't retaliate. It's not a fight. Suspend that dude, not me.)

Depends. Been taking to Arctic Monkeys' "Do I Wanna Know?" or "Why'd You Only Call Me..." on my last go-round, but I usually stick to 90s stuff. Barenaked Ladies deep cuts, Stone Temple Pilots, etc.

This time, if the partner's cool with Angel's part, I think we're gonna go up there for "Loser, Baby".

I've never been to a karaoke place, what's it like? Do you usually go with friends, or do you just join up with random people? Do they serve food and stuff?
My usual go-to is a dive bar downtown. Sometimes there's food trucks, and I typically go solo and do whatever, but I'm bringing my partner this time. The KJs there have adopted KaraFun as their system so you don't have to pass around a song book to see if what you want to sing is available.

It's a good time. There's almost always at least one person who goes up for a meme song and gets accompanied by the entire bar.

Hey y'all. Been a bit.

Nothing like waking up to sudden power outages and then finding the resulting surge when it came back on knocked out your TV's backlight. (It's back now, but I don't know for how long.)

Probably gonna grab my Vader Time shirt and hit up my favorite karaoke spot tomorrow. Gonna have to read the room, but I did wind up getting the entire Hazbin soundtrack on KaraFun, so there's that. Suggestions for a setlist?

On a technicality. The store page says it is required; on launch day, maybe the day after too, it had a button to skip tying in your PSN. If you bought it any time after the launch day(s) you never got prompted and, unless you scrolled all the way down and read the store front, had no idea it needed it.
People buy games without reading the description?
