I finaly got to backing up the necessaries from my computer. Kinda releaving, and I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anything important. Even found some old msn logs hidden away in a dark, webby corner, that while I know I have no real reason to keep, my nostalgia-center still managed to convince me to include.

Now I just have to copy all my brother's (and his bands') old recordings, and I'm ready for a meltdown, if it comes to that.

My lord, what must I do to win your favor?

As you wish, my lord.

I have designed a pentrain as you have ordered. Is it to you liking?

I see... I shall try again, this time with an original image.

Is this any better, my lord?

B-but I drew it myse-



This is why I am now a chicken.

[olemars]

I always struggle with getting recaptchas right. Does that mean I'm a bot?

@Taco Dan

By the decrees above, you would seem to be multiple chickens.

[Simmura McCrea]

Or maybe Inglip just wants a chicken farm in Italy.

Cracked.com has made me happy, but it's like fucking tv tropes, theres always another page, always

Great Game Music thread, and my suggestions. Now I have the urge to reinstall The whole X-Wing Series and play through/continue them again. They were such epic games, and it's about time I dust off that joystick anyway. I used to rock at piloting spacecraft (with X-Wing physics, of course).

Highlights:
X-Wing- Nuking a Star Destroyer for the first time, and the Death Star Trench Run. The end of the Ram's Head Campaign, and watching the devastation afterward. Flying your first B-Wing.
Tie Fighter- Wiping out a Calamari Cruiser for the first time, Downing a heavy craft with a Tie Fighter, Your first Tie Defender, surviving a minefield for the first time. Destroying a squadrons solo with a Tie Interceptor for the first time.
X-Wing Alliance- Flying a Corellian Transport (and the Millennium Falcon at the end), Making your first epic battle in the simulator, multiplayer skirmishes, Learning how to dumb-fire your missiles so capital ships can't shoot them down and fighters aren't aware of them (mastery of dumb-firing without need of targeting anymore being the ultimate achievement), Going inside giant structures and stations (and at least one other mission that you have to destroy one from the inside), Death Star II Tunnel Run.

Strange quotations from today, because why not:

Would you like a side order of burned brassiere with that sammich, sir?

Vector: I'm made of styrofoam.
Vector's mother: Yeah, I knew that.

See, this is the kind of amusement park ride I like.  One where you're not so likely to get scared.

To be fair, revolving doors are kinda cool.

Oh, and I found out that my dad once used high-explosive for starting a bonfire. Gotta love scientific parents.

 I don't think scientific is the correct adjective for this statement. Perhaps something involving improvising.

I just remembered a hotel in China where a label on the revolving door explicitly mentioned that crawling through the door was forbidden. Really regret not taking a picture. Also regret not crawling through it.

Holy crap, this video is amazing if you have ever played Just Cause 2:
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/05/27/just-cause-2-deaths-video/
It's a map created using the sum of all the location data about the 11 million total player deaths in-game, with each dot being 1 player death. There are enough that you can actually make out all the important features of the entire map. :O

[olemars]

That game is definitely not on rails. People have died in pretty much all possible locations. The blimp seems like a death trap though.

[Duke 2.0]

 Am I the only one who laughed at the puddle of white under the blimp knowing that there were thousands of other people who fell off the thing and added to that puddle?

 I'm more impressed with some diagonal pillars that jut into the air. These are straight lines of death points, making me wonder what could have caused people to die in such precise patterns in the air. And apparently a lot of people crashed into the sides of buildings.

Yes, that would be better.. Still, the explosion was minor, mostly just hot air slapping you in the face, not even very hard. It was shocking though.
