F*cking milkruns..
| Umm, are you okay? Also, milk run?
| >>60678
Milk run in the shadowrunner community is a phrase used to denote a quick and easy job, i.e. as simple as going out for some milk. It's kind of an ironic term at this point though as most shadowrunners learn pretty quickly that there is no such thing as a milk run and when it seems too good to be true, it usually is. -CN

I see. Thanks for the explanation, I never would have figured it out myself. Having to go get groceries yourself isn't really something I'm used to.
Speaking of shadowrunners though, I know this is anincredibly incredibly stupid question, but I can't help but wonder... How do they do it? How do they live that kind of life? I know most people aren't so lucky to be born into the .1% and don't have a choice but to do whatever it takes to survive, but it's still amazing to me.
| To be honest, I don't have the strength to do what they do, even if I had been born into it. I'd just give up. I'm too weak to live with that kind of insecurity and danger.

Well the thing with shadowrunning is that it's something you aren't really born in. It usually occurs because the person chooses to do... Or because they I forced into it as their only means of survival. Either way, every runner usually has different motivations, some have their own ideals for why they do it, some others are simply in it for the money, while the rest do it so they can live in hiding after being framed or discovering something they shouldn't had. -CN
| Hell some people probably do it for more nefarious purposes, but I digress. Shadowrunning as a career choice is something no one would ever really recommend to you in the end of the day. I personally wouldn't either, but like everyone else, I have my reasons for doing it. I don't know, that's just my two cents. -CN

Wow I've never seen a more intentionally edited post in my life. I wonder who could had possibly done it, given the content of the message. -CN
| Gesaffelstein shocks dick, I'm in pub transportation and these rich corps sitting next to me. I'm still wageslaving my ass off every weekend for what exactly? Perhaps I should grab what I can and get a cheap VR since I cannot afford simstim, that drek is schway. If you don't hear from me they got me.
| >>60660 Milk runs are a figure of speech, they don't exist irl. Even my best planned runs usually involve gunfire and jumping out of windows.

I had to ditch the burner phone, writing from one of those virtual cafés right now. Old landlines going god knows where underground in the city. Possibly connected to some poor soul's satellite net. At least the corps are not going to knock on my door when they send a private contractor to him, hehe.
But I'm ranting at this point, just know I'm still alive more or less. I'm shaking after a week without derma patches releasing tetrameth down my system. Never trust runners..

Hey, I resent that...
I feel ya on the shakes, though. It's been a few months of nothing but sweeteez but the shakes are just now stopping for me.-M9

I'm glad you're feeling better Merc. Like all jokes and ribbing aside from the two of us, I'm genuinely happy to hear you're doing better. -CN

:P
Eh, if ah didn't sober up ah wouldn't hear the end of it from my sis anyway. Ah'm sure she's told you about my... er, experimentation. -M9

| Yeah I know, if it's to good to be true and all that but holy shit I really thought nothing could go wrong with a smash a grab like this. Not even a corp job. So I guess just a reminder stay away from the easy ones.
Oh and H3x3r if you're out there. Eat drek
