I love that game so much. This is great news!  :o

EDIT: I found Vermin Supreme presidentia debate against some dead UK guy. Great stuff.

Aleister Crowley isn't just any dead UK guy lol, he was a controversial occultist, social critic, writer and bisexual experimenter with mind-altering drugs. And all of this from just over a century ago. Unsurprisingly he was labelled as the "wickedest man in the world" at the time.

One of the things I took from work for Christmas was labeled as a "paper guitar". Last weekend I bought plenty of the AAA batteries that it uses. It's made of plastic, not paper, and actually sounds pretty decent. Can't play it worth crap, but it still sounds good. Plus, I now have AAA batteries.

Finally managed to wrest imagination from the locked parts of my creativity. I must say this is something for me to celebrate, since it's been a long, long time since I got a burst of creativity.

Everybody remember that old video from 2006 where a guy plays Mario blindfolded for like ten minutes?

He's still doing music.  Oh man he's great.

My highschool jazz band may be playing at a NHL alumni game, with what could be 12000 people.

I'm doing a somewhat modded Dungeons 'o Dredmor LP, if you people are interested. Currently the character is Mario, the Crazed Samurai Clockwork of Crafting. (probably not what will be shown on the tombstone, but it sums up his skills pretty well.)

Landlord calls, wants legal advice on what to do when his commercial tenant enters bankruptcy. He goes into long, drawn out facts and asks an absolute ton of questions including wanting to know in detail exactly how he can get "his money." Does not wait for answers and just continues right along.... This goes on for over 30 minutes at least. After telling me a crap ton of stuff and wanting me to represent him/get the $500,000 left on the commercial lease for him, he says and I fucking quote: "But don't do anything billable." He is dead serious by the way. I know the property he's talking about. This man is, without the slightest exaggeration, a god damn millionaire and wants me to work for him for free and get it all done.....

Me:  "Excuse me...?"
Him: "Don't do anything billable."
Me: "You do want me to do those things we talked about though.... don't you?" [We had just talked about full legal representation to get him paid as much as the bankruptcy court will allow]
Him: "That's right, but nothing billable"
Me: "Ok...." [dead, purposeful silence on my part]

Him: "Hello?"
Me: "Yes sir."
Him: "Well?"
Me: "Sir we're happy to provide you with legal counsel but you do realize this is a business and that we both can't and won't operate for free."
Him: "Let me speak to your manager."
Me: "I'm an attorney and I don't have a "manger...." If you'd like to speak to the firm's owner, also an attorney, and attempt to convince him to work for free, then I'd be all too happy to transfer you to him. Good luck."

[he ends conversation]

God damn I love not working retail anymore. "But don't do anything billable?" Ok, I won't, jackass. Basically you want my time, legal services, and for me to stand behind them/be liable for it but it seems you don't wanna pay for it. Funny how you would like tenant to pay you, but you don't want to pay me.... Go fuck yourself. This is not a drive through and it certainly isn't a charity. No, I don't have to be nice; no one forces me to fucking smile and take your bullshit. Even if the customer is always right, you're not paying and have no intention of ever paying so you're not a god damn customer. Unbelievable. Yeah I just went to law school to fix all your $500,000 problems for free you over-entitled rich prick..... I enjoyed pissing you off.

Boss thought it was funny as hell.

Damn Truean, some people can be dumb.

I've had similar to that with working with computers in high school.

Some guy downloaded a movie from a website (barely compressed, like 6 or 7 GB or something) using a list of passwords I had found and sold. (yeah, morally wrong, but when you run out of things to do in VCE IT you do stuff like that) which according to the school's absurd costing per MB (something in the realm of $0.25/MB) meant that he owed the school a shit ton of money (well, the school was just trying to make a profit on the use of the internet there, which was slow and 99% of sites were blocked) and he tried to ask me to own up and pay up 'seeing as it was my fault he got caught'.

Good to hear; roll with it while you've got it! To get you ready for the eventuality that this inspirational well dries up, though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nlsIOoLvKM.

If you actually took him up on that 'no billable stuff' offer, what exactly would that amount to? Standing there looking lawyery?

Any sufficiently advanced scribble is indistinguishable from art eventually.

Nice, Aklyon... going to have to remember that.

Speaking of art, just discovered a timelapse video of the Earth's surface taken from the ISS, that shows a side of the planet in a way I've never seen before.

It's really quite beautiful.
