i tried here 4 years ago looking for this game.

Me and my cousin have been trying to find this video game we played as kids. It was for Windows 95 - In the game you're in medieval times and you enter a castle- your character is a white guy with blonde hair (longer, down to his shoulders). We think he had some kind of knight green armor on his upper body. You would have to type the term "MOONDOG" in for certain things. I know it's not much to go off but me and my cousins all played this and remember. But everything I've looked up isn't it. I asked Reddit years ago and they didn't have the right names then but hoping someone here may remember.

these are games it is not...

-Estatica 2

- Witchaven

- Ultima

- Legacy Reign of Terror

The style was very similar graphically to Witchaven and Legacy though

I'm from New York and love Bar Stool but that Stool Scenes from last week really showed how horrible the NYC office has become. Specifically talking about the parts where the NY staff is in the office discussing it. I've never been so bored and unentertained in my life by the conversation they had. Feel bad for Rone but the rest of the office staffers are just garbage.

Eminem fan since 99. MMLP2 is where I turned the corner and started finding his music straight up unenjoyable to listen to (Bad Guy last verse excluded as well as Fall off Kamikaze).

Listen, I see the usual retorts on here. How he's challenging himself with the fast flows and intricate rhyme schemes. It's usually echoed by fans saying Em "has nothing to prove" - which I agree with. But then why does he constantly rap like he's trying to prove he's the best technical rapper? I'm not denying from a technical standpoint he's up there....but why can't he put some of that effort into finding good production...or rapping slower how he used to? When "Everybody Looking At Me" dropped I was so happy to hear that old track. Fun hook, Em effortlessly flowing....nothing overly fast, just smooth and his presence was on 100 percent.

As I typed that I realized - could it be he just really has nothing left I say for the most part and tried to make up for it with this overly technical showcase on every song? What's even crazier - is when he works with a dope producer - he somehow gets the worst beats they've ever made. Just look at the songs he did with Just Blaze. They're nothing even like a Just Blaze beat.

I'm really at a loss as to what to do with this situation. We're both mid 30s. I speak to my cousin everyday through texts and a couple calls and FaceTimes a week. I work a decently physically demanding job and I'm wiped out afterward. I have a girlfriend and pets, and an apartment I also have to get home to. He works from home and constantly asks me to hang out - at random times like on a Monday or Wednesday morning when I'm starting my work week and then just gives me an attitude when I explain I'm working. I'm an independent contractor so I do make my own schedule to a degree - but he doesn't seem to understand that doesn't mean I just can choose not to work whenever I want. I have responsibilities and bills. He makes a decent bit more money than me and still lives at home...I only mention that because I think he's in a much more comfortable situation than me and doesn't realize I really have to grind for what I have. He asked to hangout on Thursday in the midst of work and I explained to him I couldn't because I was working. Instant attitude. On Friday I decided to take off and asked him to hang out but he couldn't. The girl he's speaking to was over his house and he had work calls. Like a normal person, I understood and that was that. Now, Sunday morning...he asks me to hang out. I'm working today and also have my girlfriend's mothers birthday dinner tonight. I'm sent laughing emoji's and a "whatever" followed by telling me I act like I work 12 hour days. I just don't know what to do anymore with this.

Thoughts ?

I've rewatched a bunch of times in the past but now I just have it on all the time - basically just a background show I can slip in and out of paying attention to. I've lost count of official top to bottom rewatches at this point.

He shoots the guy and just drops the gun on the laundry room floor beside the dead body. No gloves. You've got to imagine his prints are on the piece and I'm sure he's gotta be in the system from a prior arrest. He was just going on about DNA and shit on the boat. What ever happened with that?

Excuse the grammar. I'm just trying to vent and not overthink it like I'm writing a paper for school.

I'm 37 years old. Live on Long Island in a one bedroom apartment with my girlfriend probably paying what most people pay for a mortgage because it's just the market here. From 17-27 I was a full blown drug addict. Went from smoking weed, to popping Vicodin, to sniffing Oxy, to shooting heroin. I've been clean for ten years now. I smoked some weed the first year or two but even quit that. Anyway, I am not here for a pat on the back about sobriety. I am here because I'm starting to feel horrible about what I've done with the ten years since getting clean - which essentially is nothing. Yes, I've gotten off drugs and I've got a good relationship. Those are great things and I am not ungrateful about it. The issue is when I got off drugs I was propelled into the real life of responsibility, adulthood, and bills. I understand that's life. But in order to fulfill my responsibilities I just would work meaningless jobs with no future to do whatever I had to in order to be able to pay rent and all my other bills. I did construction the first few years and since I left that I've been doing the Gig work thing. Uber, Amazon Flex, Instacart, ect. And honestly - for the first few years I loved it. Money was good, made my own schedule, didn't have to listen to anybody and believe it or not was making decent money and more money than I ever had at previous jobs. The issue is, the last two years I've realized what I'm doing is a dead end with zero future. Not to mention the markets are now oversaturated - and while I'm still making the same money it takes a lot more time and work. I hear my friends talking about their careers (which they hate but at least they're making good money and have retirements) and they have houses or are looking for houses. I love my girlfriend and literally want to cry just thinking about how I won't be able to provide enough for a beautiful home or a child. I don't tell people what I make but was speaking to my cousin a few weeks ago and he was talking about how he was sick of making "dick money" before saying he was making like 98k a year. I make like 1100 on a good week and on Long Island sadly that's considered shit - especially at my age. I've started seeing a therapist - it's not really helping. People tell me I should go to a trade school or something - which I would love to do - I just don't understand where I'd have time for it when I have to pay these bills. I'm working 12 hour days most days and because there may be a slow day or two during the week - I'll end up working 7 days more often than not. Also, I want to make it clear me and my girl split everything - which makes me feel even worse because I still wouldn't be able to provide the life id want to for her. I despise the fact this entire existence revolves around a fucking piece of paper or a number on a screen inside an app. I'm just so defeated that after getting off drugs I was so concerned with taking care of the "now" and not planning on the future. I'm totally fucked.
