Y'all are NO HELP.
I'll trade my daay that is slipping by at breakneck speed for all your slow-as-molasses time. Just tell me what it is!
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Aimee's probably right with the cholera. I know you can die of that in the game.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The one damn thing I remember from that game.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Oh, totally dysentery. Syphillis would be hilarious.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
You can die of almost ANYTHING in that game. I died of exhaustion a bunch of times.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Aimee's probably right with the cholera. I know you can die of that in the game.
I think so too, but I am basing it on this: [link] The last paragraph in the game description mentions dying of cholera.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
An entire generation of schoolchildren grew up on the various incarnations of The Oregon Trail. Thus, it has entered popular culture. Characters suddenly dying of a disease, such as cholera and dysentery, is a plot aspect most fondly remembered.

Syphillis would be hilarious.
