End of the game, finish the can. Drink of your choice but one of the neighbors had a cooler of coronas they were sharing so that and water's what post of us drank. I was smoking sassages for the group. Probably won 2 games?) We all just hung out, playing chess, listening to music, eating sassages, drinking corona, and waiting to see if the hurricane was going to give us bad weather again all half expecting to drunken scramble into one of the ground floor apartments if shit started flying. It did not and we all eventually went home and to bed. Most of us never really hung out before then, and some of them I never saw after. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 3 points 9 months ago Every time I’ve moved I always make an effort to be friends with the neighbours, with varying rates of success. permalink fedilink source parent [–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (4 children) That's true, but I suspect you're going to miss the many people who are going to die as a result. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 1 point 9 months ago (3 children) Absolutely. And I in all likeliness would also die. It would be a great tragedy. Maybe one that would cause humanity to step up.
