Was 5 days a reasonable time
No I would notice immediatly
No I would notice in a day or 2 that I had not seen the deceased
Yes that is a good response time and probably the average
I would pretend nothing was amiss and hopefully they would just rot into a soup
I live alone and doubt anyone would notice MY death

Just checked their steam profile. They have like steam level 43 holy poo poo. And the golden potato so yeah, That's how you do weekly washings and not notice a stench.

Also how can you go a week without smelling like irish spring soap? I can't stand not smelling like the springs of Ireland (alcohol).

Real post: I made it a point to tell my boss if I ever miss work and am not answering my phone that they need to send someone to my house and check on me. I got pets and poo poo and I don't want them to starve to death after they eat my body.

Isn't that kind of just assumed? I don't have any formal plan with my employer but I assume they would like call my mom or my building if I just stopped showing up for work without explanation.

Yeah I don't know how anyone could take that statement seriously, it's not like she's the type of person not to notice if she smelled horrible.

It does bring up the question, I'm level 2 on Steam & I wonder if there's a point to levels & if so if there's a way to get my level up without descending into filth & madness?


You get booster packs more frequently for pretend cards that autistics buy for money.

Best way to do this? Start a game up and go AFK. Just let it run overnight and then reap all the cards you get. Every badge you craft or some crap lets you get experience or somethin. IDK my level is like 12 just cause I've had steam since day 1. Never crafted a single badge I just keep the cards and figure in 10 years if steam is still around some retard avid collector will pay hundreds for them.

e:

Also even if you sit on your rear end all day you still need to bathe at least every other day.

Hey all, just popping in here to say that it's cool and all to mock somebody for not knowing/caring that her roommate has been dead for 5 days, but personal hygiene jokes? That's just hosed up, even for the type of unsavory "trolls" who usually frequent this forum.

Some people do love the stench of smelly genitals so you make a fair point.

i hadn't once checked my cards or w/e until this steam sale and it turns out i had like a hundred of them and i sold them all and got $9. i then bought four games with that $9 which is a p good deal

Pretty much, unless you want backgrounds / emoticons for games. When you craft a badge you get like an emoticon. The best part is steam does it SA style so you do like :smith: with the ::'s to make it work.

I just wish it incorporated SA emoticons.

E:
Also if your roommate is dead and still logged into steam I suggest you make him trade all his steam cards with you and add you to his family plan.

Considering I live in a 2 room apartment probably not too long. Also if I were to kill myself then it'd probably take a week or so for people to find me. I'd crawl under my tiny rear end bed.

my brother and my best friend check in on me twice a day (and me with them twice a day) b/c we've all had people just unexpectedly die on us
