    how the hell is anyone going to tell how big she is if you didn’t put anything to reference for scale

    She’s too big!!! gonna have to rearrange everything to fit her somewhere…

    Idk not much else to say besides the fact that I didn’t really wanna work today, so I got to practice the inventory concept of LIFO today at work! It means Last In First Out… so when you sell an item or unit, you use the most recently added unit as your cost of goods sold. In this case… it means I’m the last one in and the first one out! Hooray good night gonna finish the kisaki book tonight

    guaranteed genbutsu vs testing suji 5p. order of operations

    I was like let me get more dora… since I have floating 2p… but I could also just call riichi if I draw 46s…

    Think this gives me more options to open my hand with 4p chi or something. plus 7s is genbutsu and it doesn’t really hurt my hand here at all

    damaturds… not like this… but it’s 7700…!

    I was feeling desperate so I went for the chase. I didn’t feel like I had time to wait for improvement on end of row 2 so my thought is to slam it. but 2 3s out is a bad wait I know…

    I suppose drawing 3m is kinda shitty here since I enter furiten due to 1m toss. So keeping 35p for 4p acceptance makes more sense here, since I’m actually sad if I draw 3m.

    I must have read the scores wrong – dama tan yao is 1300 for 2nd automatically! But I threw the stick still… point awareness skill is lacking…

    OOF

    I was thinking about how I should accept less than ideal riichis more… then I get blown out by stuff like this and it makes me think I shouldn’t… but I still think its the right play…

    22334m > 23334m. Plus, 3m is genbutsu to toimen!

    3m is the best 1shanten discard. I was trying to think of how to greed include the 4s and pivot to tan yao. but in either case, the 3m needs to come out!

    I’d hit 2m on shimocha but not sure if he’d necessarily discard if I riichi’d… 7 turns is too little for me tbh to justify tossing a stick

    atozuke? at this time of year? at this time of day? in this part of the country? localized entirely within your kitchen?

    I guess technically it’s the most efficient but I don’t like going for 3p here being once cut… but it does let me move into hon itsu if it gets that far…

    damn… tanyao brain ON

    dora indicator = once cut = chuck it baby

    Hmm I thought 1p is dead so I should take up 2s acceptance. Maybe I should be trying to maintain by 2 shanten chiitoitsu instead?

    Drew haku and I was like yup cya dude

    CHII TOI

    I think in a fuck everything full offense world I’d chii and toss 2s but I was extremely weary of toimen having something like tanyao dora akadora in hand. I know it’s not dora 3 since 3s wasn’t ponned on the 3s discard by kamicha but I really didn’t wanna take another 3900 pt hit here so I let it slide.

    I was really trying to fold out here. But technically, holding the 2m for tan chiitoi dora 2 would be my ticket out of last…!

    safe(r) tiles

    I was doing honitsu ANYWAY but 2p let’s you accept 1p! but I’d still reject it anyway.

    sadness

    happiness!

    i think the only thing keeping me going is my cope bot scores… surely things will turn around for me… soon ™

    [DOGYEAR (九条だんぼ)] 籠鳥の遠き慮りを溶かして

    Is this picture safe for work? I would lean yes… but contextually… it’s not… Also, the books is like 140 pages long or something so it might last another day or two.

    It was raining today and one of my umbrella arms snapped. It still kinda works but there’s like a dimple in one side of it. lol

    チラシ but heavily price inflated

    Senior Manager from east coast visited the office today, so we get to dine on the company dime. Hooray

    thank you jc denton

    Some of the higher ups in the office have been egging me on to pursue a Master’s in Taxation. There are some benefits in doing so for my career, but I’m probably overestimating a little bit… but if I can do it, why not? Especially since that would also be on the company dime I kinda wanna… but if I can’t handle myself with just the job alone, how am I gonna do school and work at the same time? So I’m thinking if I can prove to myself I can behave from now through June I’ll try going for it…

    I missed the bus home today, so I walked 3.5 miles from the station home in the rain. Hooray

    i wanted to stay 1shanten since going back 3-shanten for hon itsu seems way too far…

    hand is shit, even if i call im not winning shit. let’s fold this hand instead next time

    I thought about this for a good bit… I figured if I pon 4s everyone is running for the hills. so I opted to keep it in the pocket. if i pon 4s it’s haneman hon itsu… but it would make my hand easier to complete!

    >haneman greed vs mangan

    uhh is 24445 1 shanten good? I wanted to pon hatsu and then finish 4445s. but I guess it’s not like anyone else really wants 2s…

    1p useless

    1s pretty much useless with 3 2s cut

    I really wanted tenpai so one more draw could help get it closer…!

    true 7p is safer than 4p, since it’s absolute genbutsu. bad!

    let’s fucking gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    http://tenhou.net/0/?log=2026042211gm-0009-3884-8507d31e&tw=1

    I was like…. I want 5p more so 66p doesn’t really help here? I think the case for tossing 8m is we get to 1shanten chiitoitsu.

    I guess this makes sense but I wasn’t really fishing for a fast hand here. but what else am i doing…? I got chun maybe dora.

    m-muh ankous…

    CHII TOI

    Nah i got value in this hand. I’m not settling for tan dora.

    AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

    I was like I want san shoku somehow… so I don’t want to riichi this…

    lol. don’t try this at home kids

    uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh not sure. I guess I’d end up getting souzu anyway so might as well do it earlier

    make faster hands!!!!!!

    just greedin’

    I pass. I didn’t want any souzu at all

    ok…?

    [Horizontal World (またのんき▼)] 誓ア約

    I was thinking I could use the おまけ本s but they’re individually kind of short. Mutsuki-bros…

    I woke up early and got absolutely btfo’d on Riichi Shitty and upset and went back to sleep. Game is shit, I should give it up!

    I finally got my first day of 0 hours worked! I spent most of the day on just playing Pragmata. I’m nearing the end of the first run and we’ll see if the end-game stuff is any good. I can’t seem to play too much at a single time… maybe my attention span is bad.

    Gave blood today. Their water dispenser was out of water but luckily I don’t have an aversion to drinking tap water.

    Some pho nearby. It’s alright.

    Finally found these bad boys at Costco and picked up 4 jars. It’s like crack in a jar. I first ate them while watching an F1 race maybe 2 or so years ago… so I associate them with fast cars in my mind somehow. Surprisingly, my father hates olives of all sorts, so I guess I didn’t pick up the olive hating genes.

    I should learn to not turn on my pc or look at my phone first thing I wake up in the morning. Well, first thing we can fail at tomorrow. Let’s fucking goooooooooooooooooo

    [トーティシェル (きんく)] お仕置きのお時間です

    Kinku is so good!!! Too bad he doesn’t draw as many books anymore.

    This morning I played some autotable and got 2 1sts! Then I thought that was cool. Let’s go to the local mahjong club and shake off the rust! It’s been probably at least two years since I played there… and I got cooked 0/1/2/2. lol. Need to work on a few things like maintaining consistent discards in riichi/damaten to not give tells off. I had good dama mangans but missed a few of them… Maybe if I called riichi I could get others to stop making big hands? I did deal in to two big ones (one post riichi and one where I ran out of safe tiles) so I have a lot of improvements ot make aon all fronts. Hooray

    lobster in boiling pot.jpg

    Pour one out for my homie but I’m happy for you making it this far!!!

    Time for bed to get the bread early tomorrow. good night

    just kill me man

    I guess hatsu is dangerous. lol

    shoulda went toitoi instead of tan yao

    ):

    True I ruined my 1shanten sanankou… which would lead to…

    reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Should have taken keiten here. I thought I still have a chance 0at drawing into tenpai (I didn’t)

    I didn’t want to rely on direct hit/tsumo/dora yet… Good call as it was all blocked too…

    seethe and cope

    [Horizontal World (またのんき▼)] ラブ・イット・ワン・モア

    1.5 more to go! またのんき’s next book is up for pre-order too. Miyo hype train is real… not that I know anything about her…

    ふけまち listed their Kei and Plana dakimakura cover reprints. Let’s freaking gooooooooooo

    Today we ate at Fogo de Chao! They had $100.00 gift cards for $80.00 at Costco, so I picked up one… then I realized I’d need two sets for a dinner. I had purchased the cards back in February to eat after tax season was finished, but I was tempted to try to go during March and my brother called me out on it… so now we get to redeem it. It’s good but I would rank Galpao Gaucho and then Espetus over Fogo de chao. It’s a safer option… but I love the charcoal flavor that seeps into the meat at Espetus!

    Here’s today’s purchases. A Yeti tumbler to replace my decade old Hydro Flask, and some… interesting chips from the Japanese supermarket. It looks like they’re made in Malaysia though… but I’m intrigued.

    Making my way a little bit further into Pragmata… but we should also get back on track for exercise and nip reps too. Soon(tm)
