What game holds a special place in your heart?
  • I didn't see it mentioned so..

    Original EverQuest. Up to Rise of Kunark expansion specially.

    It was my first MMORPG. I miss the way I used to feel playing it! Miss having to camp spawn points and actually talk to / interact with others to share resources and camps etc.

  • Today my friend is giving up smoking!
  • I'm sure lots of books will be recommended but, after smoking for 15 years and trying tons of times to quit, I finally quit after reading Allen Carrs Easy Way to Stop Smoking.

    I read about Allen Carrs book on Reddit in the comments of a few posts. People kept saying how great it was and called it the 'quit smoking Bible'. It wasn't that expensive so I picked it up and it really did work for me 🤷‍♀️

    Good luck to your friend

  • One of the reasons we don't seal adult teeth is because insurance doesn't cover it and people don't want to pay for it (there are other reasons like prior fillings, loss of tooth structure, groove being less prominent, etc). If someone asks for it to be done and agrees to pay out of pocket we'll definitely do it.

  • Can someone explain the boundaries around 'people pleasing'?
  • I'm not sure I'll answer this exactly right but here's my thought on your question.

    People pleasing to the point that you almost always sacrifice your own wants and needs is the the kind of thing that is seen or talked about as problematic.

    The goal is to find as fair a balance as possible between not being an asshole but also not always sacrificing your own wants and needs. It can be hard for some people who have a personality where they always take a back seat to what others want or need in social situations. They are true people pleasers in the negative sense of the word.

    I think some people use the term people pleaser to simply refer to someone who is nice, but that's inaccurate because just being nice and handling social situations well is great as long as you aren't always sacrificing your own wants and needs.

    I've been called a people pleaser many times. I've worked hard to find a better balance between my own needs and others. Now I know that I am instead just a very nice person, but am more than willing to put my own wants and needs first. It just took me a while to figure out that my wants and needs are just as important as others.

    Like I said, balance can be hard, but I think most people will be just fine if they stick to the "don't be an asshole" part.
