    also matt and desc, tell me again if you love your GTIs

    and what other cars you test drove while making your decision

    matt, if you jump through the hoops, isn't it a good way to get wider exposure for your bread though?

    Not really. The two stores they want to supply are both within a few miles of the bakery, and the amounts they're asking for are rather small. Business is business of course, but there comes a point of diminishing returns.

    If an Irishman moves to America, he becomes Irish-American. If an American moves to Ireland, he becomes American-Irish.

    http://www.aihs.org/American_Irish_Historical_Society/Welcome.html

    Shouldn't this organization be called Irish-American Historical Society? I mean, it is based in America and focuses on Irish-Americans, not the Irish.

    I just hit 70k miles in my GTI, the only maintenance I've had to do is oil changes and new brakes and tires around 50k miles. It still averages 30 mpg's on my daily commute.

    I test drove... a 2008 Mazda 3 hatchback and hated how cheap it felt. (also the blinker made a really annoying sound, which is petty yes, but it was really annoying). A 2008 Jetta, and couldn't sit in the back seat because the roof slope was too low.

    Perhaps they have succumbed to the notion that you should be American first, since America > all.

    Considering how the Irish were looked down upon in the 1800s, it was probably better to be viewed as wanting to integrate into American society rather than being Irish in America.

    oh yeah, that guy took me forever to beat the first time I played

    a lot of people will tell you to climb the ladder and wait for him to come up so you can do a plunging attack, but I always found it easier to climb up, kill the archers, heal up, and then start the fight and stay in melee range

    if that doesn't work, you can try tricking it into falling off of the gap in the bridge

    what kind of shield are you using?

    that's a really good shield for most of the early game

    you can block most of his attacks, you just usually have to back off enough to get the tip

    if you want, you could try summoning me or something

    We're worried about you Eddy. We've tricked you into posting about your benders every year so that we could have an intervention.

    I'll be the first to admit that all of that positive reinforcement for your yearly benders was kind of a dick move considering our intentions.

    Oh well, nobody's perfect, right?

    The regular skeleton dudes drop a pretty solid shield called the hollow knight shield or something like that, it's the first one I think you find through regular progression that has 100% physical block, I'd make sure you haven't picked one of those up since unless you're really good at parrying it's way better than your starter shield. I'd also totes recommend picking up a spear from the first vendor if you don't have one, being able to attack while blocking makes the game a lot easier while you're still acclimating to it.

    actually, the bandit starts with shield that has 100% block in addition to nullifying poison build up when you block with it
