Summer Steam Idles Thoughts

[Morgan Evanar]

Weekend was too short. Could have used another day to sleep in.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I know I'm inviting disappointment but if one of the two of you, at least, can do what you're supposed to, that would be fantastic.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Dear summer,

Please go away.

Sincerely,
Me

[Pierce Tondry]

I want a do-over of July.

[Ezra Na'chtion]

Shouldn't have stayed up all day....

[Carré Inirial]

Holy hell. Shoulder. Hurts. May have overdone it with the weights at the gym this morning. :(

[Crusader]

Dear summer,

Please go away.

Sincerely,
Me

No please stay where you are!

I want my summer vacation spent in actual summer and not an English summer that we had the whole time so far.

EDIT: By the way is Summer and Steam not kind of missleading... I kind of feel the urge to open a valve now.

[Peter McCoy]

Fiancees and mums! Why the fuck is it so difficult?

[Crusader]

^^because comedies and dramas would be 50% percent less funny without them.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Dear summer,

Please go away.

Me

Hey, our Summer.. is okay-ish this year. Sort of?

At least London looks quite sunny on some of the Olympics coverage ^_^;

[Captain Untouchable]

It's a clever optical illusion. It's been hammering it down here the last couple of days. >_<

[Dasquian Belargic]

I thought there must have been some green screen going on!

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

We had some huge epic thunderstorm all last night and this morning. It was like an artillery barrage

[The Boy]

For those about rock......

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Proof reading... Ughhhh

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Trying to explain the Olympics to small people with no concept of countries is... challenging.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Come to me beautiful shoes... come

[Morgan Evanar]

NBC's Olympic coverage is some of the most awful jingoistic crap in recent memory, and it completely misses the point of the event.

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

Rocky soundtrack is playing. Shit is getting real now

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

Dear summer,

Please go away.

Me

hahahahahahhaahhahahahahahahahahahaha

look at this guy who thinks he can handle a summer in the deep south

[Captain Untouchable]

Ever since an ex with a massive, obsessive crush forced me to endure The Day After Tomorrow numerous times, I have had an irrational hatred for Jake Gyllenhaal. I've actively avoided any movie that he's been in: I've not even seen Donnie Darko or Brokeback Mountain.

Today, I watched Source Code by accident: I didn't realise he was in it. Not only did I enjoy the movie, I found myself actively liking Jake Gyllenhaal's character.

God damn you, Gyllenhaal. Don't go pulling a Ben Affleck on me. :shakefist

[Dasquian Belargic]

Wiggo :dance :dance :dance

[Emelie Shadowstar]

It is so weird to be bummed out that I don't have time to go to the gym tonight because I need to do grocery shopping.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I knew it was going to happen at some point.

[Morgan Evanar]

Eh? What was?

[Dee]

My hip hurts. I think I'm broken.

But holy hell the rush from a good workout is sooo worth it.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

On the way out the door to work, I grabbed the wrong set of keys and locked myself out of the house.

[Zeke]

So much tasty.

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

Christin rolled three consecutive 20's (dark banana style) in real life today

[Dasquian Belargic]

...she fell on a banana peel?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I know I'm the little sister, but I wish my older sisters would remember I am over thirty and have opinions of my own that they should not simply dismiss.

Also, why are my ideas only good when it's a week later and you're saying it like you thought of it?

I could write pages and pages of e/n but maybe I should just get a therapist. :(

[Captain Untouchable]

Good god, brain. We did not just cry at a movie about boxing robots, did we?!

:cyduck

[Dasquian Belargic]

The dog just came upstairs, farted, then went back to downstairs again.


:|

[Crusader]

I really appreciated the facebook timeline today. I went all the way down memory lane and then caught myself thinking: "Yeah those last 4 years were not too bad, not bad at all!"

[Banner Laverick]

I am going to spend most of my remaining pay check on just food this weekend, and I am completely okay with this. RIB FEST! :eee

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

Local bama bombers bitches!

[Wyl Staedtler]

gdi no, tiny weeping angel baby dnw :ohno

[Razielle Alastor]

I know I'm the little sister, but I wish my older sisters would remember I am over thirty and have opinions of my own that they should not simply dismiss.



Sorry babe. If you are the younger sister you must be inherently dumb. It's not your fault though, all of the good genetic material was already claimed by the others. This is taken from fact, recorded in the vast compendium of all knowledge! Just accept it. Older sisters rule. :D

(I kid... sorta. :mischief)

[Siyndacha Aerin]

I killed Kaidan today. This morning. I'M STILL SAD ABOUT IT.

Curse you, Mass Effect, for being so good. :shakefist

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Yeah, I'm realizing this, I'll never not be the baby. Even with babies of my own. I've tried to contribute with the upcoming family reunion but no one wants my help or my opinions, so I'm just going to show up and consume instead of contribute! Ha!

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I killed Kaidan today. This morning. I'M STILL SAD ABOUT IT.

Curse you, Mass Effect, for being so good. :shakefist

I killed kaidan when he was my sheperd's love interest because that's how ice cold she is.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I didn't kill Kaiden :mischief

[Captain Untouchable]

The first time around, I had no idea that my companions could get killed off. I managed to have Ashley shoot Wrex, and then I sent Kaidan and Ashley on the missions that made sense - Kaidan was my 2IC, so I sent him with the Salarians; and I left Ashley to guard the device. My FemShep had to go rescue the device because it was so important to the mission... I was gutted when Kaidan died. I tried carrying on with Ashley as part of my party, but her continued survival (and her personality) really started to grate on my nerves.

I had to replay the game from scratch as a Soldier, just so I could keep Kaidan and kill Ashley (and keep Wrex alive). :uhoh

[Dasquian Belargic]

I'm surprised Charleys femShep didn't smother him to death with her crotch and/or thighs

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

We were just getting to that, and then Virmire happend :(

Would've been Vega's fate but ME3 doesn't allow me to fully realize my alpha bitch sociopath aspirations, sadly.

[Captain Untouchable]

I still haven't played ME3 yet. :uhoh

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Little Heart of Courage to end the night. God I feel like a badass. :smug:

[Dasquian Belargic]

That song makes getting on the bus feel like a triumph

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Yeah, I'm realizing this, I'll never not be the baby. Even with babies of my own. I've tried to contribute with the upcoming family reunion but no one wants my help or my opinions, so I'm just going to show up and consume instead of contribute! Ha!

There's nothing wrong with this. Less work for you, and more time to enjoy your family and not worry about whether it's "going just the right way". If they want the responsibility, let them have the headache :)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Plus everyone will want to hold the baby so I'll be tricking them into doing some of my everyday work. Bwahahaa!

[Yolie Devix]

ESPN is killing me with its stupid spoiler alerts :verymad

[Captain Untouchable]

Just collapsed and fell down a flight of stairs.

Fuck this illness, man. :(

[Dasquian Belargic]

So apparently I'm buying a house.

Blimey.

[Crusader]

^^So that weekend heist went well?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Storms a brewin...

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Queen of the brain fog...

Not sure if allergies or what but this is getting old :|

[The Boy]

Dear Sun....F-YOU!

[Dasquian Belargic]

Grown-up paperwork... eugh

[Polly Smithson]

awwww I miss this place. and these people. :cry

[Dasquian Belargic]

come back to us!

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

Stop pissing me off. It is absolutely not in your best interest to do so.

[Banner Laverick]

Going to work for four hours is ridiculous. :|

[Captain Untouchable]

My dad's fiancée was talking about having kilts and the wedding, but I'm pretty sure she was joking.

Do not toy with me, woman. I would totally wear the fuck out of a kilt. :ohno

[Dasquian Belargic]

9am - 8pm for the next 2 weeks waaaahhh Jones you idiot

[Captain Untouchable]

Watching a Minecraft videos on YouTube, then all of a sudden -

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!

ME3 intro Reaper noise. :cyduck

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Overtime... |I

and working early tomorrow? ughhhh

[Dasquian Belargic]

You and me, time and space. You watch us run!

[Wyl Staedtler]

Conversation highlights of the week:


Liz: Are you having a good time with Daddy?
Rhys: Yes.
Liz: It's pretty late where you are.
Rhys: Yes.
Liz: Burning the midnight oil?
Rhys: No he doesn't have any, any midnight oil.



Rhys: I went to the park with Oom (uncle) Rawden today.
Liz: You did? That sounds like fun.
Rhys: Yeah! We threw stuff at ducks. *happy sigh* I really like that guy. He's daft.


Oh, my baby. It's so hard being apart but man alive, the gems that come out of his mouth. :lol

[Dasquian Belargic]

Amy stepping into the Tardis for the first time... never not :3:-worthy

[Captain Untouchable]

I am Commander Shepard, the most fearsome and badass human in the galax-

HELP! I'M STUCK ON A TABLE AND I CAN'T GET DOWN!!!




Fucking clipping bug. :grumble

[Wyl Staedtler]

Browsing my favourite site for finding places to stay (airbnb.com) and omg, I am so charmed by this one dude in Liverpool who will probably turn out to be a killer. His selling points are the commissioned artwork of his cats, Egyptian cotton sheets, and the hens he keeps in his wee yard to supply eggs to go with the never-ending supply of bacon that's apparently on hand.

Cats and bacon in the land of The Reds? It's like all my dreams come true. :3

[Dae]

Wow, I have no posts on this account, weird.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I am full of tiny beans and sausages

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Why am I so damn hungry?! I'm hardly starving myself! Ffffff....

Also - life needs to stop moving so fast. You know, unless I'm stuck listening to phone calls at work.

[Captain Untouchable]

The Protheans are dicks. :|

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Javik is my homie :colbert

[Wei Wu Wei]

School started. Let's see how long it takes the darling little angels to ruin all the hard work I put in this summer.

[Captain Untouchable]

"I would have liked to study the sea-shells."

:cry

[Crusader]

^^I've studied species Turian, Asari and Batarian
I am the very model of a scientist Salarian!

[Captain Untouchable]

"Guide this one, Kalahira, and she will be a companion to you as she was to me."

I don't like this game anymore. :(

[Alexia Sturkov]

So tired. Posts tomorrow zzzzz.

[Dasquian Belargic]

"Guide this one, Kalahira, and she will be a companion to you as she was to me."

I don't like this game anymore. :(

But this leads to one of the most badass moments in the game.

Just wait.

:ohno

[Captain Untouchable]

"Guide this one, Kalahira, and she will be a companion to you as she was to me."

Just wait.

:ohno

Do you mean Thane being a badass and thwarting the assassination attempt? The quote is from after that, at Huerta.

I'm currently down three members of my Mass Effect 2 crew. Two have died noble, heroic deaths... one died because I gave her paragon advice, and Cerberus killed her. :(

[Dasquian Belargic]

No, I'm talking about something much later down the line.. you'll know the moment when you get there ;) It's one of those moments where I actually cannot physically restrain myself from going YESSS! *fistpump*

[Captain Untouchable]

DO I GET VENGEANCE? :ohno

[Crusader]

No Shepard and the Assassin realize that they are brothers that were separated at birth and that their whole life is a metapher for this senseless killing. So they stop the fighting and lead their entire fleets into a dieing star. Thereby stoping the cycle because the reapers have nothing to harvest anymore.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

SO BE IT. :lol


...I want to go home :( It's past my bed time. Let me go home.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Some people live out of their cars. I live out of my toolbox.

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I have driven a lot today, and still have a lot more to go

[Captain Untouchable]

I just listened to "Seasons of Love" from Rent being sung in Klingon.

The internet is a weird place. :|

[Droo]

My new favourite place in Liverpool: http://theshipinabottle.co.uk/

:D

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

My 17/19 is my favorite tool, but not due to its' sheer usefuleness - more because of the delightful letters and numbers on the handle.

[Droo]

Gordon Ramsay Sex Dwarf Found Dead in Badger Sett

Headline of the week, surely? :whaa

Edit: Turns out to be a hoax. And they say you can't make that stuff up! :(

[Captain Untouchable]

Watched the Hungry Games today, or whatever it's called.

Was disappointed to discover that it's not Gordon Ramsey's new cooking show. :(

Edit:

Holy crap, the random Gale guy is Chris Hemsworth's little brother. Have we witnessed Fred Fiddich? :ohno

[Crusader]

Fred Fiddich is the young sniper in the Expendables as well!

[Captain Untouchable]

I couldn't bear to watch more than the first few minutes of the Expendables, and none of the second. We may have to rectify that next week when I'm exceedingly drunk... :uhoh


EDIT:

Fred Fiddich is banging Miley Cyrus?! :cyduck


EDIT 2:

I'm sorry, this film has absolutely no credibility at all. She's passing up Hemsworth genes for the sissy dude whose name sounds like bread. :colbert

[Dasquian Belargic]

One day things will work out right for me.


:(

[Morgan Evanar]

What happened Jones?

[Dee]

*hugs Jenny*

[Droo]

Well, they say "God loves a trier..."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-19349921

"The once-dignified portrait now resembles a crayon sketch of a very hairy monkey in an ill-fitting tunic..." :lol

[Glen Fiddich]

Things I learned today:

I will automatically click on anything with a picture of Starbuck on it, whether I know what it is or not.
I will then read it in full, whether I have any interest in what it's about or not.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Dust won't show up in tiny website photos. Please stop cleaning and GTFO my home. I pay rent...so it is still my home. :|

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Forty minutes to go the distance that it usually takes me two minutes to do. That was nothing compared to the sickening feeling of crawling past a trailer and the unrecognizable cab that it belonged to :(

[Enedra Myrrhe]

I start classes on the 4th.

I think hell just froze over.

[Dee]

Bonus to being a student again? Getting a full pro version of the latest Office suite for $85. *pets*

[Dasquian Belargic]

Come to me, wine. It is friday.

[Droo]

Bonus to being a student again? Getting a full pro version of the latest Office suite for $85. *pets*

What will you be studying, Dee?

Edit: I've been haunted by a thought all day. Anders Breivik. Surely, no human being can do what he did without some degree of insanity. His actions deviated so far from acceptable human behaviour that I can't help but think that anyone who does anything like that has to be touched in the head. Does anyone else feel this way? Admittedly, I'm treading the waters of a much deeper discussion, but there are crimes of passion resulting in murder and then there's this sort of thing: 77 people dead in about 4 hours, many youngsters, as young as 14 years old, all of which was premeditated, and he has only just today had the gall to apologise to his extremist cronies for not having killed more people. And they call him sane? I refuse to believe that.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I keep getting the weirdest songs stuck in my head. Yesterday it was Day Man from Always Sunny. Today it's the Cowboy song from Family Guy. What the hell, brain?

[Dee]

What will you be studying, Dee?History, with a concentration in European History :)

Sadly, none of my credits from my old University will transfer (long, involved, painful story) so I'm starting at square one - but I really don't mind. Frankly, its been so damn long its probably for the best anyway! :)

My family has their doubts, bless their hearts.

*shakes a fist* I will have my degree, dammit!

[/rant]

Sorry about that :ohno

[Captain Untouchable]

My niece made me watch Dogtanian for two hours straight yesterday.

Guess what song is stuck in my head...

>_<

[Dee]

2:41am and I'm drinking coffee...there's something wrong with this picture.

http://i52.tinypic.com/11azvd2.jpg

[Captain Untouchable]

Turns out it's airport security that was making me nervous. Just got to the boarding lounge, looked out of the window, and am now all " :eee Plane! :eee "

I was stopped for a random "swab your phone for explosives" check at security though. That got me a mite worried. >_<

I know where you are coming from and I am torn on this matter. I think in the end it would have been too easy to say he is crazy and normal people do not do this but the truth is this guy is a fachist and there are more of them all over Europe and we can't just close our eyes now that Brevik is in prison.
In the last century horrible crimes against humanity were commited in the name of fachism and just pretending that all of those nazis must have been crazy is too easy. Fachist propaganda is strong and dangerous and has to be fought wherever it starts to grow.

This is exactly what makes me nervous: security. I could fly all day and night but the airports themselves... :ohno

[Charley]

The worst security I had to run through was in Boston, at Logan International. I think they made me do the fucking macarena through that infernal machine.

[Dasquian Belargic]

On the way back from LA, their scanning machine broke as I was going into it... so they waved me out of it.. and then acted like I had done something wrong, so gave me a proper rigorous pat down / grope while all my valuables sat on the opposite side of the room, within reach of anyone who wanted to grab them (passport included)

I was like

*inside* FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

*outside* Oh, no. I'm terribly sorry.

[Park Kraken]

Every time I see the title of this thread, I keep thinking it has something to do with the Steam Summer Sales, rather then Random Thoughts. Did I click on the Gaming Forum by accident?

Also, looking forward (not) to a wet weekend. Although next weekend should be Charley and Christin's turn to get wet.

[Dee]

The worst security I had to run through was in Boston, at Logan International. I think they made me do the fucking macarena through that infernal machine.It's because one of the 9/11 tower flights left from here...I flew to Greece about 6 months after, and there were no machines then, just metal detectors and wicked over zealous 'random' patdowns. Because you know, my 80 year old grandmother looks like a terrorist bent on destruction with her wooden cane. They almost didn't let the damn thing on the plane.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Taxi to the airport book for 3.45am

JOY

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Hurry up and take the goddamn pictures so we can go back to being our normal slob selves! :lol

[Wyl Staedtler]

Nothing like getting a random letter from a ZA politician saying how sorry they were to find out about your father dying. Whoa, boss. 0_0

[Dee]

Its startling to know that my family doesn't believe in me. Family. Ok then. Good to know. Thanks ever so much. I know I'm the laughingstock, but you could at least pretend.

[Droo]

History, with a concentration in European History :)


Good for you, Dee. I have to admit to being more than a little jealous. If I could turn back time, I'd jump at the chance to study history instead of bloody geography, and later, psychology. Throw yourself into it, Dee, with wild abandon and forget the negative naysayers. This is a very positive thing you're doing so enjoy it!

And Liz, considering some of the tales you've shared of your old man, that doesn't surprise me at all. You must be very proud. :)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Hell is being trapped in a car for 24 hours, listening to your children randomly wake up in the night and scream and cry because they are miserable.

Never.

Ever.

Again.

[Flux]

Its startling to know that my family doesn't believe in me. Family. Ok then. Good to know. Thanks ever so much. I know I'm the laughingstock, but you could at least pretend.

WE are your family, and you are not our laughing stock! Also, we believe in you so much we need an extra mile after the membership stands with arms stretched out fingertip to fingertip to express how much belief there is. GO GET IT.

[Dee]

Seriously. Totally made my day, you two did.

[Siyndacha Aerin]

Yes, dearie. We loves you! Now you can be a school girl with me!

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Two more hours :dance

Also... I got a non-drunk(maybe) call today?? :lol

[Ben Merasska]

What will you be studying, Dee?History, with a concentration in European History :)

Sadly, none of my credits from my old University will transfer (long, involved, painful story) so I'm starting at square one - but I really don't mind. Frankly, its been so damn long its probably for the best anyway! :)

*shakes a fist* I will have my degree, dammit!

[/rant]

Switch out European History with Liberal Arts - English (going to be an English teacher), and this is basically me. Including the family laughingstock line. Only a couple of my brothers are potheads, so I've got it a bit easier there in terms of expectations being low and all that. Can't get much lower than them!

What do you plan on doing with that History degree?

[Banner Laverick]

I wish I had more people to talk to, but I'm bad at keeping in touch. :(

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Good luck to all the college goers - I do regret not finishing my degree. I would totally study history if I went back, so GO GIT EM, Dee. *fistbumpage*

[Dee]

Yes, dearie. We loves you! Now you can be a school girl with me!Yay! I would suggest wearing uniforms if it wouldn't give people the wrong idea ;)

Its been a dream of mine to work in a museum with artifacts for about as long as I can remember. In Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, remember the scene with Indy's office? A dusty corner of a desk surrounded by shelves of artifacts and stuff? That. That's what I want. That would make me the happiest person in the world :)

Trying out the Chromium OS on a usb stick. It's hella fast.

EDIT: Downside, can't seem to get flash support to save my life.

Edit 2: Woke up this morning and couldn't boot from the usb. Had to go to the ubuntu live cd and erase it there. Now I can't access the usb stick. I don't think I'm meant to have a computer. :(

[Dee]

Kick it? I find violence helps.

:ohno

Or at least, makes me feel better...

It's called Percussive Maintenance (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PercussiveMaintenance), and it is Truth In Television!

Charley wants to get his tackle right up in my scrimmage line, so that he can get in deep with my wide reciever.

I am terrified right now. :uhoh

[Emelie Shadowstar]

After everything THAT is what scares you? :lol


Oh god... Why didn't I take Monday off?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Oh man. Slept pretty much all day. How I misses you, bed <3

[Dee]

Not to self: do not read posts in the middle of a store otherwise you will make a scene by laughing at seemingly nothing and doing so very loudly.

[Morgan Evanar]

I finally got the con crud, and I have to go to work. LULz.

Chocolate Salty Balls: not a good song to accidentally sing along to in an airport.

I finally got the con crud, and I have to go to work. LULz.

noooooo

plague babies everywhere

[Charley]

Russian Dave has to "ask the boss" vis a vis my attempt to return an unused keg. I am imagining this conversation taking place in a St. Petersburg dacha, and I just hope this doesn't harm their front company for their black market arms smuggling operation, because as far as fronts for the Russian Mafia go, this package store is great and I want it to do well.

[Dasquian Belargic]

...how did Russian Dave not become a character in Fiasco?

[Charley]

I was kind of channeling Russian Dave as my disco dancing mobster NPC

[Charley]

I'm probably about to get a call that goes like this:

"Da, we do return. But you give favor also. I have package to send to guy. Do not open. Just give, da? No question. Dasvidanya."

[Dasquian Belargic]

what the heck was I supposed to be making everyone's custom titles? @_@

Imma send you a bottle of Buckleys. It tastes like horse radish, but it'll kill any cold or cough you've got.

This was my thought process after reading Hayley Atwell's name in a cast list. Wtf, brain? :uhoh

[Droo]

Because she will one day be known as Hayley Milligan, of course. :)

[Dasquian Belargic]

Lose voice, get sexy husky voice.

Melodious, even.

[The Boy]

The sinatra station on pandora makes it seem less like work...and more like the apocalypse.:-)

[Dasquian Belargic]

I kind of wish that Peter followed me everywhere with his little cube full of happiness

[Kala'ndryl Ryj]

There is no culinary issue that an application of curry powder cannot solve.

[Captain Untouchable]

Just ordered my groceries for the next few weeks. Included is copious amounts of beer and cider, as well as American-style bacon.

What did you guys do to me? :cry

[Dee]

They made you better, of course ;)

[Morgan Evanar]

This cold is absolutely awful :(

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I'm posting, you beautiful shits! I'm posting!

[Crusader]

I kind of wish that Peter followed me everywhere with his little cube full of happiness

Sorry Jenny I offer this service once per year or "Only in a blue moon..."

<--insert cheesy 50's Music here

[Dasquian Belargic]

This cold is absolutely awful :(

Truth.. and now back to work for me too.

Ffffffffffffffffffff

Is there a way to add the Mysterious Stranger music as Peter's CT? :ohno

[Vince]

Damn it, if I bomb this course because Mathlab's meaning when saying "a course expires today" and my understanding of "a course expires today" are different, I will do nothing, but let that anger simmer and fester and take it out on someone who doesn't deserve it.
</p<img>

[Dee]

In the schoolwork vein...

*throws books around the room violently*

...why did I think this was a good idea? *sigh*

[Captain Untouchable]

"You know how I said I kinda had a date? It's with your mom."

Guess what I'm watching. :mischief

[Dee]

I have the peculiar urge to title my assignment for my IT class "Bits, Nibbles, and Bytes, Oh My!"

Halp :ohno

[Dasquian Belargic]

O hi to you Bulmers

[Emelie Shadowstar]

:ohno Moving time...

Well, find an apartment or other place to live time, really. Ugh.

[Zenas Codrey]

I have the peculiar urge to title my assignment for my IT class "Bits, Nibbles, and Bytes, Oh My!"

Halp :ohno

I think it was my brother, or one of his college friends, who named a theological dissertation "zOMG U MAEK TEH BABEH JEBUS CRY" and received 90% or better.

[Dee]

*lmao* Oh dear...that makes my bits, nibbles, and bytes pale by comparison!

Ended up going with "Growing pains..." instead, as the discussion was about the switch from IPv4 to IPv6.

[Mara Tallen]

Currently 61° outside...this makes me a very happy camper. Lots of windows open, and its almost cold in here!

*happy dance*

[Dasquian Belargic]

Why do I keep getting cramp in my feet :|

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Currently 61° outside...this makes me a very happy camper. Lots of windows open, and its almost cold in here!

*happy dance*

:| *FIST SHAKE* It's 9am... and already 80. It's supposed to be over 100 today. FFFFfffffffffffffffffffffffff

[Charley]

We're having days with highs in the 80's :3 totally football weather!

[Captain Untouchable]

It's a refreshing 68 here. Y'all enjoy your stupidly hot weather now. ;)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Ty got four vip tickets to the end zone at Autzen Stadium today. He took three guys who work for him.

*sigh*

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Nice thing about it being death hot: I can see what the house we're looking at renting is like at worst heat. It's not awful.

[Dee]

:(

This is why I would never survive in LA...that kind of heat and I do not get along well at all >_<

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Gimme heat over rain for 9 months of the year. :x

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I just want snow :(

Lots and lots of snow.

[Morgan Evanar]

Gimme heat over rain for 9 months of the year. :xIn Florida you get both :smug:

[Banner Laverick]

I just want snow :(

Lots and lots of snow.


Gross. I'll send you all of our snow when/if we get any.


I want sweater weather. I want to wear sweaters and hoodies and scarves and toques D:

[Crusader]

I want heat. If the temperature falls more here I will have to start the heating early this year.

[Dee]

I just want snow :(

Lots and lots of snow.I'll send you some :D I love the snow!

Hate driving in it, but that's part of the charm of living in New England...and entirely why I have an SIV with all-wheel drive.

____________

Made a pseudo-stir-fry for dinner. It came out very tasty if I do say so myself.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I just want regular seasons! Snow in winter, rain and sun in spring, sun in summer, rain and coolness in fall, etc. Is that too much to ask?

[Dee]

Yes, it is :p

Seasons. Pah! The nerve! ;)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

It's a day. That is also night. I don't know.

[The Boy]

Just got us tickets to go see...

Charley, I see they're playing in ATL in december...Y'know just sayin' :mischief

[Captain Untouchable]

Captain Picard just yelled "It's a trap!" at me, which nearly made me choke on my bacon and Earl Grey.

My geek morning is totes awesome right now. :smokin

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

It seems Russian has found a nest, and each day is bringing a baby to the front porch.

[Dasquian Belargic]

^ Has she issued demands of any kind? :ohno

[Dee]

It seems Russian has found a nest, and each day is bringing a baby to the front porch.Ohnoes :( what kind of nest?

WHAT DOES SHE WANT?!

[Crusader]

I just saw pictures of the new Robo Cop and somehow the design reminds me of Raiden as Grey Fox in MGS3.

I get it that in this decade everything has to be sexy and agile but I guess I am an old school guy that wants his Robots to look cluncky and to move mechanicly.

Sure it is more realistic that Robots are as agile as humans in the future because otherwise you would not need them to do human tasks in the end.

But I now see the remake of Star Wars in 10 or 15 years where AT-AT Walkers jump over snowy hills like leopard and AT-STs run through a forest as agile as ostrichs.
Well on the other hand in 10 years the 15th doctor will still be fighting clunky Cybermen and slow Daleks and this will make me happy.

[Wei Wu Wei]

It's not that I don't want to work: It's that I want to play Skyrim.

[Droo]

Oh, Mitt Romney, you contemptible self-righteous little racketeer. You just crack on with the whole shooting yourself in the foot thing.

[Crusader]

^^I think this is all a big conspiracy. In fact Mitt Romney was obducted by the secret service one year ago and replaced by an actor that Obama hired. So the first goal was to get this actor in the position of becoming presidential canidate and after that he was supposed to derail the Republican campaign like an overcrowded train in India.

[Park Kraken]

Mittens has already chimed in on this latest issue to come to light, just waiting on Barry's rebuttal. Still thinking about writing in Condy Rice on the 'other' slot.

In other random thoughts, for once I'm not sure whether or not I want to get rained on at work. We still need it, but I'd like for the site to start drying out so the little nighttime pests would go away.

[Crusader]

Is it just me or does the new ICx train look like a Star Tours Space Ship

[Banner Laverick]

Sweet, I got Success Share money from work today :D

[Dee]

Waiting for my philosophy professor to grade my two-page paper is excruciating. Writing it was equally so. I haven't written a paper in thirteen years, for fuck's sake >_<

[Droo]

Well, that would certainly explain the remarkable inconsistencies in his stance on myriad issues.

And it's utterly remarkable how people see only what they want to see in this Mitt Romney fiasco. Apparently, the footage was of a man speaking in favour of people taking responsibility for themselves, and not of a man labelling the much-touted 47 per cent of Americans not paying income tax as a bunch of lazy scroungers. In that 47% there are the unemployed, who, in the current economic climate, cannot be blamed for being unemployed, or at least certainly not all tarred with the same brush. Then you have students, the disabled, and the millions of pensioners, the latter of which is allegedly the most likely group to vote, and I don't think any of them take kindly to being accused of being the sorts to "believe that they are victims" and that "they should take responsibility and care for their own lives."

It was such a brazen and idiotically sweeping statement of the most compassionless conservatism, and to defend it as some sort of limp statement of independent culpability is absolutely repellent.

/soapbox

[Morgan Evanar]

It was a dark and stormy... day.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Can I please please stop feeling like death now? :(

[Yolie Devix]

Yes, you may. *hugs*

Note to self: papers written on three hours sleep in the previous 48 hours at the very last minute are not going to get A's. They will, however, get a B, because apparently I can sling philosophical arguments on no sleep decently well.

[Captain Untouchable]

I found a place in Guild Wars that sells candyfloss. :ohno

[Taataani Meorrrei]

Hahaha I swear to hell the next time we have a nerd event I'm totally buying two kilos of candy floss so we have proper questing candy

[Mara Tallen]

Hahaha I swear to hell the next time we have a nerd event I'm totally buying two kilos of candy floss so we have proper questing candyBrilliant idea :D

Ok. I feel better now.

[Captain Untouchable]

The server will be shutting down in 10 minutes for scheduled maintenance. Estimated downtime will be 60 minutes.

Huh, okay. Guess that's my cue to go to bed then. What time is--

Oh shit, it's time to wake up. :uhoh

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Damn you RDR, why must you compell me to play you until far past my bedtime??!

[Callista]

I follow my work on Twitter and this made me giggle a whole lot ....

"How deep is your knowledge of fracking?"

[Mara Tallen]

*lol* Oh god, that's priceless...needed that laugh this morning!

[Park Kraken]

Professor Brilliant here, I thought I was rubbing a topical cream on the exposed wounds on my lower leg where I have vericose vein problems, but then I notice the cream smelled sweet. That's when I actually looked at the cream tube and discovered it was a sample of toothpaste. :whaa

[Morgan Evanar]

It's been years but when I was a teenager I accidentally put Desitin on my toothbrush instead of toothpaste.

Yeah.

[Dee]

Red. Velvet. Cheesecake.

Positively orgasmic *fans self*

http://i49.tinypic.com/2q3vqs8.jpg

[Dasquian Belargic]

Oof. dat cake.

[Park Kraken]

I just had a fartgasm looking at dat caek. :yum

[Taataani Meorrrei]

Needs more cocoa dusting and pecans! But yes I will eat red velvet always always always.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I wonder if anyone would notice if I flicked the Vs at everyone as they drive into the parking lot...

[Captain Untouchable]

I was just joking with someone that my Guild Wars quests/etc were starting to sound like awesome Doctor Who episode titles, then this shows up as one of those orange circle event thingies:

Help U.N.I.T. destroy the Inquest.

:ohno

[Taataani Meorrrei]

Why is everyone at my optometrist office a bigger nerd and a bigger hipster than me? It makes me kind of uncomfortable

[Dasquian Belargic]

Tired and I can't go to bed because Thomas has literally taken over my bed

[Crusader]

Don't consider it an occupation but an additional pillow option.

[Droo]

So, this was in British skies about an hour ago and I missed it. Bloody clouds! :shakefist

[Dee]

Tired and I can't go to bed because Thomas has literally taken over my bedYou have thumbs, darling...show Thomas your superiority and eject him from your sleeping space.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Use that fat cat for a pillow!

[Vince]

I had a dream where there was a car crash.

I was walking through a tunnel underneath the house and followed it until I opened a screen door into the porch, which was full of odd and old items. No one was in the porch, but I could see something happening out on the street and as I walked up on it (it happened right outside the house), I saw it was an accident, things seemed weird, and I started to investigate.

For some reason I started investigating my house, which was an amalgamation of my house I live in now, my old one story house, and my grandmother's old house back when she lived up in Philadelphia. I searched through it for a while, and things just felt weirder, as I realized that the accident had killed my grandmother and my aunt (why hadn't anybody told me that they were the ones who had died?)

As I continued my search, I found items that seemed familiar but didn't belong, like pictures that had come out badly, but I remembered them being perfectly clear, and stories of people disappearing. I found myself back in the tunnel walking to the porch, when John, my cousin was there. I asked him what he was doing there now, since I'd just walked out of the room and no one was there. He answered, but I can't remember it now completely. All I remember is that he made a mention of a tape recorder grandma had left to me before she left.

I find the tape recorder in the porch on a table in a corner, and I press play.

"...river," Grandma says. She continues to speak (I wish I could remember the details!), but things get really clearer as she stops, and narrates the car accident that killed her. It ends in static, and I wake up.

What the hell? :colbert

[Park Kraken]

Umm, go visit your Aunt and Grandmother in a hurry? :ohno

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Dammit TireRack, stop enticing me :mad

[Chrys Atreides]

Really, Red Sox? REALLY?!

*whacks head against wall*

[Droo]

"Stendhal said, 'Politics in a work of art is like a gunshot at a concert.' I'm only doing politics to this extreme extent this period because I believe the concert is now nothing but pistol shots, and one has got to speak up, and forget literature, and forget art, and remember that one is a citizen in an extremely fragile world."

Oh, Gore Vidal, you and your words. :love

[The Boy]

Pic that completely broke sarah and I for a couple minutes.

[Halajiin Rabeak]

So, I drew this.

[Banner Laverick]

Woo, got another award/badge at work, now I get money :eee

[Captain Untouchable]

I keep going to bed at sensible times. Why do I have to feel exhausted no matter how well I've slept? :(

[Crusader]

Some people deal longer with Jetlag than others. I still had a hard time as well last week maybe you need a little while longer.

[Captain Untouchable]

It's not to do with the jetlag, unfortunately - I was sleeping fine for the first week I was back, and feeling ok. It's just the last few days it's become a problem again... it's most likely my medical stuff. :\

[Jack Bradley]

Winter has come to Wallsend. Brrrrr.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Finding out your old boss married the "financial adviser" who told her to get rid of you is... weird. :|

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Dear person with their brights on on the busy-ish interstate,

I don't like you. At all.

Love,
Me

[Makhaira]

I really need to stop renting movies OnDemand at 1am that are over two and a half hours long >_<

Avengers...soooooo worth it.

*stumbles off to bed*

[Taataani Meorrrei]

Leverpostej and baguettes apparently last forever when frozen. Yay me

[Halajiin Rabeak]

Got pulled over this morning because my car matched the description of a getaway vehicle in a convenience store robbery in San Antonio.

I drive an intense blue Mini Cooper S Clubman, with the Union Jack on the roof. Why on earth would anyone pick such a conspicuous getaway car?!

I was late for work. Grrr....

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

We have been drinking cider for over two weeks now. I just refilled another growler and put it in the fridge, and had to grab a Good People IPA just for a tiny 12 oz break from the Strongbow action.
