:O

Unfunny joke?  I was being serious!

[ein]

And how is it obnoxious that I mention an unconscious habit that bothers me ever so slightly?
Is it because it's 4chan?

[zchris13]

Yeah.  We at least try to maintain some sense of intelligent conversation around here.  Witty puns, clever metaphors, and the like.  Not crude humor. Crude humor used ironically? Yes. Sometimes. Not too often.

[ein]

Yes, but I did mention this habit in the sad thread.

[zchris13]

Oh god, I think I killed it.  It almost got me, but I turned around just in time.  It was strangling my sense of humor, and had almost killed it! So I stabbed it in the throat. Good riddance.

[ein]

The hell?

The best way to bury the hatchet between friends is to bury it in dwarves...

i have a couple roommates who drive me and my wife nuts. they move our things around in the kitchen, ALL THE TIME. they never clean, they set off the fire alarm every time they cook. all they ever cook is all day recipes that stink up the whole kitchen, all day. have i mentioned they don't clean anything?! we have a toaster oven that has been under siege by their dirty dishes since they moved in. they rearrange our stuff in the bathroom and have marked the cabinet with pen where the "halfway" point is. for awhile they kept turning off our air-conditioning (we have the hottest room in the building by far, attic room on the east side with 3 walls of windows and crappy insulation).

His little computer space is in our storage room (which in itself is fine) which is regularly visible from the kitchen. the kitchen and the storage room both have doors on them. he closes the storage room door to study. Do you think he would close it to masturbate? apparently not x.x also apparently not after the first dozen times my wife caught him doing it.

so glad they are moving out on the first.

Why would you even tolerate that? If it were me, there'd be an awful lot of ass-kicking involved in this story.

Anyway, what makes me sad:

Ever since the new version has come out, I've been fighting the urge to go up to the actual Dwarf Fortress help section up north, and then post something obnoxious like:

"O hay, i wuz lik plyin dis dawrf fortran games and I canttt git eet at AlL! im reel nuu 2 dis gam adn i cnat figer owt wat 2 duu! evrtythin iz ahl lik numbrz n ltteers n stahf! haw iz enee1 sposed 2 ply dis?!?!?!?!? dorvs rr so stuipd eneewai. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO!"

And I have this urge because, deep down, I want to see how many of the northerners that never come down to GD (and thus never see me) would take me seriously and respond with all seriousness in mind. I resist because I don't think it'd be very cool to troll what is basically my home on the internet.

I just thought I'd tell you guys though.

[Jackrabbit]

Yeah. You'd be a leper.

And lepers smell. So I wouldn't be around you.

[JoshuaFH]

Nah, I'm already a leper. You know why? Because I haven't made any time to actually play the new version of Dwarf Fortress. I've downloaded it, yes, but I haven't actually played it yet. I just let it sit on my desktop, and every time I see it I pass it a few coy or flirty glances, sometimes I even work up the courage to open the folder. Heck, sometimes I even start up the program just to see the opening animation, but then I'll exit the program without having done anything, and I feel that I've broken the law or something, because that's just wrong.

As you can clearly see, I'm some sort of criminal. Please arrest me.

[Borgle]

I did that, too.
Except I manned up and played it.

[Jackrabbit]

Oh my God dude do it do it do it now now now.

[ein]

Nah, you're good.
I've not played it either.
I've only downloaded it to do some modding.
That I don't even know works or not because I'm using a crappy old mac.

I would get up in arms about it but we needed them here for the rent money. when i lost my job things went south financially. things are just starting to pick up again but they gave us their 2 month notice (a few days late i'll add) about 2 months too early. however I have thicker skin than that. it might hurt our financial independence but i'll be glad to see them gone. hopefully we'll be moving into a new apartment (little bit cheaper, nicer place, no laundry or central air included though...) soon. then i can say good-bye to my landlord, another rotten can of worms in itself (wont pay to fix or repair anything except the damn roof)

[ToonyMan]

I would play more of my new fort if I had the time.  I want at least a hour dood.
