Re: General Discussion 5
What is the difference between "forest" and "woods" ?

Re: General Discussion 5
Yeah I think they're synonyms. I however have always though of the difference being in size. (Woods being small and forest being large)

Searching for apartments is the worst. Good luck finding one!

Re: General Discussion 5
Thanks, I actually found a place today that I really liked and will be putting down a security deposit on Monday. There's some nice parks in the area, and it's even close enough to downtown so I could ride my bike to work!
Good luck with your move as well, Swaffy. Hopefully you don't have to go too far.

Re: General Discussion 5
We've looked at so many houses since winter, but they're all either crappy in some way or too expensive. Except this one that was absolutely perfect in every way... but it sold in three days and we never even got to make an offer.
I'm so done with renting, but at this rate we're gonna be stuck with it for a while yet.

Re: General Discussion 5
sometimes renting is the only way to go until either your born rich or hit the lotto, if only it were that easy

Re: General Discussion 5
Stormy and I got a house! We decided to open up our filters to include townhomes, condos, etc and that really opened up our options!
We found one we really liked and put an offer in the day after we looked at it. There were other offers so we ended up in a bidding war, which we ended up winning on Monday. Ever since then we've been doing all the other stuff that you need to do when buying a house, concluding with the home inspection which we did yesterday. All that's left to do now is to wait for the lender to finish our mortgage application and then close on the house in about a month and then it'll officially be ours!

Ditto. I also would like to be more active than I have been and I apologize for not doing that.

Re: General Discussion 5
same. i'm a fraud and only post when there's new interesting topics and don't make any myself. also my job is boring af, takes up most of my time, and I usually have nothing interesting to say
I could tell you some boring adult stuff like I went grocery shopping today and made some delicious homemade pizza. Or I went for a run and played Pokemon Go, but that's about all I got dude

Re: General Discussion 5
So our closing date for our house was supposed to be today, but the best and most useful and necessary government organization ever, Fannie Mae, has yet to sign the papers or even explain what the heck is taking so long. Apparently the bank and our attorney contacted them seven times before they even heard anything back at all. Now we don't even know when we're moving, but hopefully it's before we have to move out of our apartment.

Re: General Discussion 5
... if the Evening Lake portals were underwater, wouldn't that mean there would just be a constant stream of water flowing into those worlds from the lake? and the lake would (nearly) dry up in a matter of seconds?

Re: General Discussion 5
I didn't realize you haven't played ANB before. I remember it being better than TEN. Haven't played it in like 10 years though.
We finally had our closing last Thursday and moved in that afternoon. My parents came to help me move, and Paranoia is coming to visit this Thursday! I hoped I would have my DDR machine by then, but the seller isn't responding. (What's with sellers not wanting to sell me expensive things? o.O)
