There’s a studio called SoundBooth Theater that does whole ass performances.
Currently listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl, by Matt Dinniman, narrated by Jeff Hayes. And it’s awesome. He does the scoffs, laughs, sings in character voices, has crazy sound effects and music, etc.
See also: Friends in Low Places. They played it at a AAA baseball game here and the whole place was chanting it lol.
I’m kind of an early access freak, but I put in about 80 hours and enjoyed it. There were definitely problems early, and I don’t plan on going back to it for at least a year, enough for them to release substantially more and it feels fresh.
I did a Dishonored run with zero kills and never being spotted, took forever but felt so satisfying.
Agreed, surprised they haven’t shown up in this thread yet lol.
That’s a good point, a lot of people are still on old Avaya or Cisco systems and it was expensive to do that. A lot of cloud providers now don’t charge anything for it.
Yeah, it’s a feature dubbed “queued callback”. Saves your place, it’s a pretty common request. Customers like Delta, Intuit, Pacific Life, Citibank, Dyson, all use the platform I build (Amazon Connect) and do stuff like that.
Problem is, no one answers a call from an unknown number these days. Some phones are getting smart enough to recognize the number and show that it’s a business, though that’s more anecdotal evidence from my personal device (Pixel Fold with Google Fi carrier).
I sell and build call centers for a living.
Yeah, it’s fake lol. I mean maybe for some businesses it isn’t fake, but usually clients would ask us to make it where “if there’s more than X calls in queue, play the message”. Turns out, there’s always more than X calls in queue. It’s not actually looking at the average.
It’s kinda weird, some things are just always like that, some things clients want to add in because the average user expects it.
Someone wanted a repeat caller to get bumped to the front of the queue. Literally encouraging the “if I hang up and call back I’ll get there sooner” people. Awful.
deep inhale
Fuck yeah
Amateur move! Gotta be careful around hot sausage splooge.
Weirdly, I can only do this with my right ear. Definitely helps on airplanes.
Sorta depends on the tribe I think. At least for me, my grandfather has his card (Choctaw) and that was the only requirement for me. My DNA test showed something like 0.1% native.
The bloody handjob scene was awful, and I will never look at rusty scissors the same way. Parts of that movie made me physically ill.
Also on the list for me is Bad Boy Bubby.
I was literally going to mention the Center of the Universe lol. It’s got some crazy acoustics.
One of our haunted houses called the Hex House is based on a legend of a lady who kept a couple of women “hexed” as slaves in her basement. The police found them and the owner did jail time.
The vid has 167k views now, good for him.
What if I call it Tylenol but always buy the generic anyway?
People have lost trademark rights because it’s too ubiquitous.
Aspirin was literally the brand name by Bayer but lost it.
Something meaningful to your partner, not just a fancy place (those are nice too).
Close by our house is a little pho place that my wife loves. She hates the cold weather, and if it’s an especially chilly day she’s usually feeling “meh” but if I say “let’s go get warm soup belly” her mood instantly changes and I think that’s romantic :)
A feel good story and anon feels the need to announce his beloved’s D cups? It’s a nice fantasy he’s made about some girl that spilled water on him that one time.
It’s supposed to represent Ben Kenobi from the original star wars I think. Or more generally, a wizard-y sage robe.
Edit: it’s also just a meme, with its own understood meaning.
