She wouldn't last two days in a lab. Especially around Hydrofluoric acid
Dimethyl mercury. You know you want to.
I wouldn't wish that on anybody. Slow death from neurological degeneration is a terrible thing. And besides, the risk of poisoning yourself with it is too high.

Let's start with the small fry: HCL. Then let's see the reaction.

Perfect experiment. >:D




Rage: Net is bad. So bad, that I can't work or update or do quite well any kind of research due to it being on/off, with emphasis on the off, at distinct time intervals.

It's like I'm under a 'you can use the internet between x and y hours', wherein there is no notice at all of limitation or any hint towards it.

I think playing Mafia is doing something seriously bad to my blood pressure.

Mafia is super stressful. I tried it once. There's a lot of pressure and you can't be away for half a second.

It's super-fun, though. Except when you get nightkilled, which is just annoying.

I didn't have very much fun, and I felt like an idiot most of the time. I think there was something I wasn't getting at some point. Don't get me wrong though I'm not bagging on it. There's a reason there's a whole sub-forum dedicated to it. It really did get my blood going though and it was always super exciting during the last few hours before night.

I've read a couple of games. Not really my thing, and I don't understand why anyone plays. *shrug*

I gave you advice on it. :(

...You actually did great. >.> But I hate how you make hyperboles out of it.

Now I feel wounded by all this. :/

Third mission of the Starcraft Zerg campaign. HE HAS AS MANY SIEGE TANKS AS I HAVE ZERGLINGS WHYYYYYYY!? At least, he had more than ten of the things. Also near-infinite resources because AI, and a near-perfectly defensible position.
I had to look up a strategy guide to win (which I've never had to before) and then the way to win is to spam mutalisks (like, he defeated the first wave of twenty-four). Sigh.

Really?! Christ why didn't anyone tell me! D: I thought I was doing a terrible job and that's why I was so rage-y the whole time I was playing IRL...  ;_;

Personally I had a blast in the BMs I played in, but there are two things:

1. Even when it is compartmentalized, the stress and frustration from constantly arguing with people builds up.
2. I'm very much an all-or-nothing type of person for things like this, and the nature of Mafia precludes the possibility of nothing. I really shouldn't have spent as much time as I did on it when I had real-life responsibilities to take care of; a good chunk of my free time during those games was spent combing back over things to put together arguments.

Basically when I'm working I don't have the time or energy, and when I'm at school + "working" I really need to devote my time to other things. I was also sorta trash, I got lynched every single game (regardless of whether I was town or scum) because I was aggressive in my questioning. Or something. I just didn't have it in me to sit back and lurk, because what's the point of playing if you're intentionally going to be a minimal participant?

Just my two cents. :|

For the mafia thing it's...

fun at times. But yeah, it's stressful, for me, any sort of contact with people that involves actually analyzing things is stressful. A lot of it is that I have to re-read things just to understand what's being said, let alone going back over things. And some of the things other people do is frustrating.

I don't want to say much more because I'm actually in the current BM right now, so I won't get specific.
Not sure if I'll try it again, but it's had its good times. The whole first day was fun, for me.

I felt like that for my first few games, you definitely feel like a moron for not knowing most of the simple strategies etc. It gets better though. And addicting. Damn you mafia.

Didn't I nightkill you in your first game because you were way better than anyone else there?

EDIT: Yeah, the cop got lynched D1, then you got NK'd and were the doctor and Shakerag and I laughed our asses off.

Ah, yeah, that's right. Still too much aggression, especially with that role.  :P
