Last night she grabbed my collar with both hands and pulled herself up to look down my shirt.

@StrixVaria friend's baby is insistent that my medicalert necklace should be something I eat. The thing is stainless steel - having that slammed into your teeth sucks hardcore.
@AshleyNunn Yes, my daughter is also starting to just shove things at you. Every time she picks up a thing, she either holds it up to show you or, if she's close enough, puts it in your face.
She's learning all sorts of stuff, though, and it's really neat to see her develop.
She still doesn't crawl, but she does drag herself across the floor pretty quickly.
She loves chasing the dog, and especially trying to eat slobbery dog toys.

Yeah, watching them think stuff through and figure out the world is kinda great but I like that I can do that and then give them back after a while. Not really ready for my own.
@originaluser The general strategy for low times in RPGs is don't do any of the battling and just run from checkpoint to checkpoint, and only do mandatory battles, usually by exploiting items. I don't know Earthbound well enough to say if it's the same for that game, but it probably is.
@StrixVaria Yeah, true. I just can't think of anything that would let you get it that low in EB, but I'm not an EB expert so who knows. It'll be interesting to see at least.
Hah, I don't think included that one thankfully. I just remember him massively duping the +blood echoes items to get a ridiculous blood level and then doing the absolute bare minimum
I like speedruns, but I can't really watch them non-stop. I get burned out too easily. I find them real interesting from a programming standpoint, though, especially TAS
@StrixVaria True, I guess I'm just thinking about stuff like Siglemic's pursuit of Mario 64 perfection and how often he has to reset and it's just... that would drive me nuts.
@5pike Meh don't blame the kill/save incentive, some of them are anyway. "I AM A NARCISIST IF YOU PRONOUNCE MY NAME RIGHT THE FIRST TIME I'LL DONATE MOAR"
@GodEmperorDune When you donate, you can select a donation incentive for it to go for. If that incentive either wins (in the case of a bid war) or is met, then that thing happens.
For example, the kill/save incentive refers to the choice of killing the animals in Super Metroid (faster) or saving them (canon)
