When I first started as a constable in a remote northern town, I had this exact same thing happen. They kept the dog in the room directly below mine and after a night shift trying to sleep my day away listening to the dog howl for 8 straight hours until they got home, I was ready to shoot both them and the dog.
...like you?
What are you talking about? It took him an incredibly long time to get that old....like you?
Given that part of that administrative BS is chasing down a bunch of people's vulnerable sector police record checks because OMG we need them all by the end of the year...
I really regret choosing the Knowledge domain for my cleric. My asshole DM decided that meant my god required extensive book keeping. So every time I kill an orc, I have to stop and make an annotation in my Book of the Dead Orcs . . . while the fight rages on.
I am stealing this to use as a DM. You should also probably have to use one round to at least say a prayer for the dead too.... It's 6 seconds, what's the worst that could happen?
Hey! Talking is a free action. Bonus action for a sign of some sort akin to crossing oneself perhaps though
I'm a little concerned that you're inspired by an idea that started with "My asshole DM . . ."
That's far more lax than what my fictional DM decided. It takes a whole damn action to record a death - and that's assuming I've got right book in my hands. Did you notice how the book I mentioned was titled Book of the Dead Orcs? I'm hauling around a library on the back of a mule, praying the mule doesn't die because I forgot to pack the Book of the Dead mules.
I shouldn't laugh but this is frakkin' hysterical!
Fucking hell...
There's been a lot of talk about what they meant, but of course a simple winging wouldn't put her in the hospital in "extremely critical condition" or require surgery.
Right, but “entered right orbit, shattered upper jaw, and then exited rear of neck narrowly missing spinal column” is still supposedly “better” than “damage to both frontal and temporal lobes.”
I had a hundred and fifty bucks worth of grocery gift cards in that. I mean, it's not the worst financial hit I've taken near Christmas over the past few years...but it still fucking sucks and makes me think I'm suffering some kind of Christmas curse. 
Ooh, eesh. If it was the actual hard drive itself that failed, you may be SOL for getting anything off it.
You were saying you didn’t think it was gonna last.
Black screen, press f1 / f2, crash anyway sort of thing.
Any odd noises from the tower case when it's trying to start? Clicks, thunks, whining?
Oh no, that's terrible! Did they break into the car or was it unlocked?My purse was stolen out of our car.
The purse was also my grandmothers, one of the only items I owned belonging to her. It was vintage, made in the fifties, with real brass fasteners. It was, genuinely, one of the most lovely items I owned.
And I forgot it in the fucking car.
not really, the fans whirr a bit but it doesn't sound like previous failed hard drives I've had
