Well I’m actually autistic. What say you then, Jarkes?

@Jarkes  
Even though I take it your word for it, I’ve never seen anyone do that, at least not my experience.

@EPPony  
I say if it’s important to the plot, then make it the tutorial stage. If the backstory involved a dude fighting a dragon a thousand years ago, don’t give a 7 minute narrated cutscene about it; actually play as the dude fighting the dragon a thousand years ago for the opening level :D

I wish Steam would stop asking me to verify my age to see the store pages of M-rated games! I should only have to tell them ONCE!

@AnCapGoku
 
I think that happens every time you log in? Like after you do it once it’ll remember you’re legal until you log out?
 
But yeah it’s annoying.

There’s this stray dog…
 
I don’t want to see her die!

9000 barrels of bourbon were destroyed in Kentucky when the distillery they were housed in collapsed.
 
This is the greatest tragedy the south has endured in over 100 years.

@Zincy  
9000 isn’t even enough to buy a car.

@Badheart  
Uh that’s enough to buy a new Ferrari.  
Each barrel holds several hundred dollars worth of whiskey, unless it’s the cheap crap. Say each barrel has 500 dollars of whisky in it. Now multiply that by 9000.

@someguy111
 
And still not enough to afford health insurance.
 
/only half serious

@Zincy  
Press F to pay respects for all those barrels of bourbon.

@someguy111  
Four and a half million bucks just soaking up in the ground. Shit! That’s early retirement kind of money for the average American right there.

@Zincy
 
NNNNNNNNNNNnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Dustcan  
More like car insurance in Michigan.

@AnCapGoku  
Suddenly I want to get into the brewing business.

@someguy111
 
Do it. Making fermented drinks like beer and wine are actually not hard at all. I’ve done it a few times. Liquors that require distillation are a bit more work. I’d say the main thing is finding low cost high quality ingredients.

@ArkyNoid  
I’d love to but the market is very saturated. It would be a hard market to break into. Unless you can come up with something really unique and desirable, the business isn’t going anywhere. Also keep in mind that while it’s pretty easy to make basic booze, the good stuff takes serious skill and can take many months if not years before the batch is ready for sale.

@someguy111
 
Don’t be discouraged you can find something unique and desirable. Make that cinnamon honey mint banana ale dammit.

@someguy111
 
It’s not hard to break into in the south. Breweries, meaderies, wineries and the like are all the rage down here. And honestly, all you need is one or two restaurants to sell your craft and you’re in business.
 
I’ve yet to see one fail.

@Zincy  

@someguy111  
Why not try brewing something simple but exotic for your area, like mead? (Yes, it exists in real life)

@Starry Mind
 
The only issue with mead is you need honey, which can be an expensive part of your brew.
 
Mead is best brewed in rural areas where you can get honey cheaper. Or, for the especially bold, invest in your own apiary.

@ArkyNoid
 
@Zincy
 
@Starry Mind  
I thought about making mead as it’s a pretty untapped market but we already have a meadery here in West MI and not much has come of it. Michigan is really more into beer, especially craft beer.

@someguy111
 
Round these parts, if it has an alcohol content, folks will drink it.

Got out of the hospital after suffering a gall bladder attack. I’m fine now, but since they gave me morphine, I can’t work today.
