    Ah, there we go.

    If Tip leaves a trail of discarded fancy clothes everywhere he goes, getting his wardrobe back may be easier than we thought

      Too bad he doesn’t know any of the girls’ names.

        Sheer probability indicates he will meet one or two of them later, just by walking down the street. They’re near that town in Alaska (name, please?), so he might have left some cold weather gear in the sheriff’s place.

    It’s like a questline in which every chapter gets you one piece of an armor set.

      That’s my experience as a newb in Lords of the Rings Online.

        That’s my experience as an 11 year player of Lord of the Rings Online.

    Nick seems to be manipulating the filter into using vintage slang that perfectly delivers what he wants to say.

      I wonder if it’s a result of Whimsy’s VR censorship system affecting Anasigma’s swear filter. Now it almost sounds like he’s not trying to cuss in the first place.

    You crazy diamond.

    (Someone was going to say it; might as well get it in early.)

      Diamond is unbreakable, but are Tip’s boots?

        I found that with a ball peen hammer, diamonds are most definitely breakable.

          There’s a story there, I’m sure . . .

      Never actually heard the song, and I get it. No idea how, but I do get it.

    Calling it “trash” sight unseen seems a bit rude.

    “Trash?? Those are _vintage_ 1980s chew toys!”

      And only -slightly- heavily used!

    This is all just a series of sidequests to get Tip’s wardrobe restored, isn’t it?

      Pretty much.

    That’ll free up room for one tiny box.

      Assuming they would also jettison the tank his brain is in, it would free up enough space for Sweetheart. Or two or three hat boxes.

      But if Tip doesn’t know how to fly (or if they never bothered to install manual controls), Nick’s brain would be the one thing that has to stay. They could always rip out the seats and sit on the crates.

    But who’ll fly then?

      Details, details. Tip is looking at the big picture and the bigger prize.

    They’ve been gone for oh, so long,
    Refugees in line.
    But when they bring all their techie stuff,
    And boots you’ve left behind.

    Keep your gear out of Zerhakk-akk-akk-akker,
    Sweetheart micromanage just-a one more time.
    Oh, keep your gear out of Zerhakk-akk-akk-akker,
    Those seats are fine.

    Helicopter cargo space,
    Room for just a few.
    But we can’t linger over here
    With timesheets overdue.

    Keep your gear out of Zerhakk-akk-akk-akker,
    Sweetheart micromanage just-a one more time.
    Oh, keep your gear out of Zerhakk-akk-akk-akker,
    Those seats are fine.

    —from “Keep Your Hands Off My Baby,” Goffin / King, Little Eva (or maybe you remember The Beatles doing it on the BBC.)

    (And for anybody who wondered why I didn’t post one Monday, let me tell you, retirement doesn’t mean you have more time to do things.)

    I got a really aggressive ad redirect the first time I loaded skin-horse.com, not sure what’s up.

      I got the same. No idea what’s up there.

        Likewise, though my anti-virus blocked it and it worked after that.

      Everybody, let me know if you continue to have problems with this. I think I have it fixed but it’s hard to tell on my end.
