RE: Otherworldly Being - Mr EliteL - Jul 12th, 2025
Ah, thanks Shira. No worries being late, I'm a Slowbro myself.
I did end up buying a shoulder bag from Prime Day that happened during the week, got a Powerbank as well. Oh noes if you guys were thinking of getting me that or were you just looking to give a suggestion?
RE: Otherworldly Being - Moonface - Jul 15th, 2025
I would like to clarify I wasn't involved in any part of the shoulder bag process. So much so, that this is the first I've heard about it.

Excuse me sir, but due to the new UK age verification laws I'm afraid I'm gonna need to see some ID to verify you're actually old enough to be here.
In seriousness, I don't know a whole lot about it and never saw a thing about it before it went live, so I'm curious if you've had to deal with it at any point at all or not.
RE: Otherworldly Being - Mr EliteL - Sep 6th, 2025
Luckily not had to deal with anything so far with the stupid restriction rubbish going on. Well, OK there was one instance, I swear either YouTube or a different site I frequent don't know which, attempted it once, but it seemed to not matter when I just backed out and returned later. I don't remember what the page said now either I was just "really, here?" and couldn't be bothered to read anything in detail. I don't visit too many sites anyway.
RE: Otherworldly Being - Moonface - Sep 11th, 2025
I know YouTube implemented an age check system, but it only activates if it believes you're under 18. Funnily enough, I heard that using any ID works, even if it's a fake one you just took from Google Images. That alone tells me just how performative the whole thing really is. Although, even if it did work properly, the solution (other than giving ID) would be to do what people in Florida and other states do in regards to ID requirements for adult websites; just use a VPN or better yet, go back to the old days of when we were in school and just use a proxy.

Just had this thought cross my mind and gonna ask it before I forget; how did the graduation ceremony work exactly at our old uni? I'm curious because there's no way they could've done it on campus with how small it was but I also can't think of anywhere around it that would've been used as a venue instead. Although even then, I doubt it works anything like what the US ones do where they use the on-campus football stadium to do it with a big stage and stuff.

I kinda disliked the graduation day itself so my memory is hazy. Took place very late afternoon/evening as I do remember being at home most of the day until it came close to mid-afternoon, then went with my mum and dad. Took place at the Cliff's Pavilion, I remember standing around out the back for a while, got a photo taken at some point. Had to wear the hat and a robe, yay. I don't remember sitting in an audience, if it did it would've been inside, perhaps that did happen though.
RE: Otherworldly Being - Moonface - Nov 23rd, 2025
Ah, so that's how it went. Who was it meeting each graduate as they walked on stage? I'm guessing whoever ran the university at the time who neither of us had probably ever seen, met, or heard of before or since? XD
At least they picked a nice venue though. Probably one of the only times that place made a good decision.

I am super duper late and the passage of time is a very shattering illusion but Happy Super duper Late Birthday EL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also in the UK do you have to go to graduation or can you just skip? I don't recall having to walk unless you wanted too in mine.
