TehMik Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 My specialty. Also it comes from being in New York every day. This place just makes you angry at slow moving foot traffic.

PraetorDragoon Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 I missed a court hearing a couple months ago because the president wanted to randomly stop and get a burger. On the flip side, everyone in this city knows it's a reality. When I told the judge why my client didn't have representation at his hearing and the event had to be rescheduled, he laughed and gave me a pass. Thats kinda terrible actually. Maybe you should walk on foot instead. (and wear a mask to prevent inhaling the fumes.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehMik Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 They close the streets, so walking would achieve as much as driving. And the metro (DC's underground) was being, well, the metro and not working. It's completely ridiculous but you get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirial Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 There are two things the current government has done right: 1) They introduced a minimum wage (which is still too low, but at least they tried) 2) They introduced the Mietpreisbremse which means they regulate the rise of rents in big cities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehMik Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 If you make a lot of $$$$$, you can eventually leave.... You can, sure. The kind of person who will do well on Wall Street will burnout in a matter of years. It will age a person faster than being the US President for a term. They work 80-100 hours/week, and are miserable. They have money but don't have the time or energy to spend it. Suicide, alcoholism, drug use, all rampant there. It's so messed up and ironic that, to me, it seems like one of Dante's circles of hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehMik Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Exactly. I know people who work there. One of my college classmates routinely says she sees her kids MAYBE twice a week. If she's lucky. Thanks, but no thanks. Doesn't seem worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Did you know that the water of the Main is seriously polluted with cocaine once it passes Frankfurt's financial quarter? I heard a similar thing about the Thames. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirial Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 I bet the Hudson (by Manhattan) has the same issue. It would explain a lot. Also, a lot of the bordellos in Frankfurt don't bother opening up in the night anymore. They make most of their profit during the banks' mid-day break.

Absolution Black Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 This is rapidly looking like I will be ending up with EVERY malifaux model lol.. Only Masters that haven't been on my radar so far are Marcus, Lynch, Jack Daw and Hamelin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 I have compared Malifaux to Pokemon a lot. I haven't be wrong in that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolution Black Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 What stops me liking Marcus is the whole Beast thing...don't know why but it doesn't rock my boat. Shame as I think the Marcus, Myranda and Cojo models are pretty sweet. Regarding Lynch, its the opposite..the Hungering darkness just puts me off, same with the illuminated and depleted. Jack Daw..for some reason the idea just doesn't grab me..and after initially liking the sculpt..it bugs me now. And Hamelin, rats...says it all really.. I hate painting fur!
