blotunga: More importantly what does it have to do with the lack of a big sale...

IAmSinistar: Easy - living off ramen enables one to optimise money saved, which then goes towards the next sale. :)
Yes, but so does giving blood and donating sperm, but I haven't seen those things mentioned yet... until now.

By the way, does anyone need a kidney?

Doc0075: What the hell is a ramen?

Matruchus: Its a japanese premade noodle soup. In europe more or less known as cup noodles.
Proper ramen.

Instant ramen.

We have a Japanese noodle shop in my neighbourhood that serves the former. One scarcely recognises it as related to the latter.

IAmSinistar: $30 buys 300 packets of Top Ramen here. That's enough to sustain you for a month, which appropriately is about how long it would take an all-ramen diet to kill you.
that's because it's not food!

Ugh. My best childhood friend used to actually eat that stuff raw. No kidding.

Ramen is basically unknown here since we around Europe eat different variations of european noodle soups. Usually here its beef soup with noodles - "Goveja juha".

Ah, Pot Noodles!
That's the UK variant anyway.
Difference between ramen and instant noodles is... Hold on... Let me cook some ramen first.
I am surprised.
Way me making fresh homemade pasta and fresh homemade ramen is same. Ö.Ö

Only way of cooking is different.

That's how you can tell if it's properly made as opposed to the plastic noodles of Pot Noodles. I've found that if the noodles are produced in China/ Japan etc., it's actually tasty raw.
You can't eat the Cup Noodles raw. They're horrible and plasticky. Uggh.

It's actually a thing among the Chinese to eat them raw. Was your best friend Chinese?

Also, if you know where to buy from, you can get a hell of a lot of different flavours. And not just the generic Chicken, Curry, Beef, Pork.
My favourites are Szechuan Jah-Jian, Tom Yum, Hot and Spicy, a pink Sweet Pork? thing - I can't read Thai and Won Ton. Yum...

Edit: Oh, disappointed that the big GOG Sale didn't materialise today...

Not to burst bubbles but I don't think it's next week either. There's a Weekend Promo on the Twitch for next week as well. Soon though I would think!

Nope, he was eating the 10 cent Top Ramen packets raw! It was nasty.
THERE'S THE SALE!!!
Rise from your grave!

Hallowe'en be right around the corner, GOG. :)
No birthday sale.
No insomnia sale.
No halloween sale.

Only despair~
The company I work for just announced they're cancelling the Halloween party this year. I'm calling on you, GOG, to make up for this calamity *points like Uncle Sam*
