  • As a previous cashier, best way to do it is to take your middle finger and swipe down across the center. Like a vertical slap on the bag’s face. About the middle of the bag, pull your arm back towards you. It will usually separate the outside wall of the bag from the stack, and when you pull towards you, the bag will “stick” to your finger and then open at the top.

    I hated moving slowly as a cashier, cause lines made me mad. So I had to find the quickest way to do everything, and that method works great (for me) until about the last 4 bags.





  • I’m like 90% sure the faction quesltines don’t intermingle with the main story. I think they push you towards some similar places, but I went through first playthrough beating Ryujin and leaving the Freestar and Crimson Fleet stuff partially done, and I didn’t even talk to UC Vanguard. Current playthrough, I’ve not touched main story and completed Freestar, Crimson Fleet, and UC Vanguard and haven’t noticed any interference.









  • I don’t think that tracks; I’ve always been under the impression that age of consent was just when you could consent to sexual activity. It didn’t account for age differences, power dynamics, or other factors that push it towards statutory rape. It was “at this age, they are able to consent to activity”, and then you would have the limiting factors of age difference, power imbalance, family, etc applied through other statutes.

    I very well could be wrong or just applying knowledge of my own local area to places that don’t operate that way, so I’ll bow out on that. I do know that age of consent isn’t just a blanket shield against statutory rape in some locales or situations, though. The “statutory” part of statutory rape isn’t limited to only age of consent.


  • Take it up with Virginia; age of consent there is 15. Intercourse with a minor above 15 as an adult can still give you statutory rape charges, as referenced here: “The age of consent for intercourse is 15 years old in Virginia; however, there are other sex acts that set the age at 18. These acts include cunnilingus, fellatio, and anal intercourse, which means that minors cannot legally consent to certain sexual activity. Additionally, if you are an adult and have sex with a person under 18 years of age, you may be prosecuted for statutory rape. Statutory rape is generally charged as a Class 4 Felony, but the exact charge and penalties will depend on all the factors and ages involved.”

    It isn’t always the case, generally age of consent precludes it, but not always. Age of consent isn’t a get out of jail free card. Additionally, it doesn’t specify about relations between people in positions of power.

    It’s all moot anyway, Roiland lives in CA, and he was inviting a 17 year old to his house in Los Angeles. Age of consent there is 18. Did he assault her? No, but what 36 year old man is inviting a 17 year old to his house? Multiple other reports of girls at 18, still in high school, also receiving advances from him.




  • Seems pretty subjective, I have finished the main quest in precisely one Fallout game, Fallout 3, and it took me years to do so. Not because I was lost in the map or side quests or anything, it just never grabbed me. Fallout 4 was the same, same with New Vegas (the one I probably played the least).

    Maybe I’m just at a far end of the curve tho lol
