      That just reminded me of when some g*mers didn't understand the Confirmed Bachelor perk in New Vegas.

        I remember using console commands to give myself both black widow AND confirmed bachelor.

        I was aggressively bisexual. I remember convincing a guy to wait for me in a dumpster while I ran back to the strip and sold him out to some cannibals.

    As part of its 1.09 Housecleaning Update, Webfishing now offers the "Straight" title. It costs 9,999 in-game dollars. For comparison, other purchasable titles cost $75. I'll also note that it's the only orientation-oriented title with quotation marks. Pretty good bit.

    The Housecleaning update's other additions include bug and performance fixes, balance adjustments, a Hand Labeler for renaming items, and a Non-Binary shirt and title. There's also this note:

    Added the ???????? which is accessed through the ???? ?????? and ??? ????????. Yeah.

    Seems fine. Personally, I'm feeling an affinity with the new Creature title. I'll probably pick that up the next time I'm in the mood for a Webfishing fix.

    Because that original thread's been locked, we can only wonder whether the original complainant is content with the added straight representation. If not, there's always, you know, almost every other videogame.
