Sorry to hear that, Kiii. Did that come as a shock or was she expecting it? Has she any other options?

It was sudden. She texted me and my brother letting us know. She had no idea. She won't be out of work for long hopefully as she has a degree and she's been a manager there for almost 4 years. I recommended she check out Xbox a few weeks ago because she was wondering about career changes so she might go for that, if they'll let her. Idk how it works for companies within other companies that you've been laid off from.

I'm not worried though. I've saved a lot over the past couple years so I'm prepared to help wherever needed. That's the point of family anyway, right?

Damn right.
Till it's their turn to help you out, of course. Sadly, I speak from experience.
But yeah, good for you that you're prepared to help her get back on her feet.

True Indiana OG's still call it Deer Creek, it's your typical large outdoor venue with covered pavilion seating and a huge lawn. I'm only a casual Weezer fan (Pixies too, sorry Ninetales) but it was a hell of a show and I loved every minute.

I got hit by a ****ing truck. And my dumb ass of course not thinking straight because I was just hit by a ****ing truck didn't extort the guy for money, no, I only make him buy me another refill since mine got spilled in my face as I went flying into the gutter.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
