Can we get an edit of Greatorder's old avatar with an anti-fap hat?

This one?

Yep, that one.

[Greiger]

EDIT: Cool, I got 10 xp for throwing him off a cliff.

Does that make you a black widow?

Actually, i'm not a woman. So i'm not exactly fitted to that definition.

[freeformschooler]

Yep, that one.

Wait, hold your horses, I still have the PSD.

I guess I just don't understand people, or rather I think very differently than they do.

I get a guy who just got another lawyer instead of me very early on a case. It happens, but I didn't expect it this time. I can see what happened.

What he was charged with wasn't clear. Namely, how many prior offenses he had and if they counted (there's a time limit). This is absolutely key because it effects potential minimum punishment and the amount of work to do (the amount of money any lawyer would charge is more for several repeat offenses than a first time in DUI).

I tell him on Saturday I will look it up and call him back on Sunday at a time of his choosing. I call him back right on time (give or take a minute or two). He is not in the system at all yet. I spoke to an officer friend of mine who very correctly said it's the end of the year and between budget and people taking time off, yeah it's not gonna be punched into the computer yet. This is a problem, because if I don't know exactly what he's charged with, then I can't advise him. I tell the guy I don't know what's going on without the records but I'll be in the records office first thing Monday morning to get the records needed. Police records office have nothing. Clerk of Courts has nothing. Finally I get into the prosecutor's office, the clerk there has nothing and I have to talk directly to prosecutor, he has it....

Right as I'm finally looking at the records for the guy, he calls me to say he's found another lawyer.... I say that's ok, and no charge for what I've done, and to make sure your new lawyer goes and gets the records straight from the prosecutor, because between it being new year's eve and tomorrow being new years day, there's no way they'll have this in the system soon enough for your court date, so make sure he can get the records by coming straight to the horse's mouth.

..... Well, there goes a case....

How I looked at it:

If I were accused of a crime, I would feel better if the lawyer jumped right on it, was honest with me about the problems of the case and how to fix it, called back right when he said he would, did what he said he would when he said he would, didn't bullshit me, and apparently cared. (Go ahead and find a lawyer digging around for case things on Sunday, doesn't happen much). And if I'm not in the computer yet, then that means my lawyer is working faster than the police....

How he looked at it:

All he heard was "I don't know" out of context and out of my mouth and the rest was too much information.

....

I don't get it. Many people complain that their lawyer never talks to them, or tells them what's going on, that they don't return phone calls or that they can't get ahold of 'em. I guess people just wanna hear, "everything's gonna be fine" at first even when it isn't necessarily true.... [shrugs].

[Karnewarrior]

People rarely want to hear anything else and will flock to those who tell them everything fine even when it's obviously not.

People can be kind of stupid. :/

So Half-Priced Books shipped me a "new" copy of Pokemon White today as per my sister's order as a Christmas gift.

Turns out it's a bootleg. The selector button says Spongebob Squarepants at the DS intro and it takes like ten seconds to load.

Wat.

Well, its possible to make an action replay, and flash carts that show up as a game (my friend's acekard 2i shows up as Chessmaster), so while they probably don't work as well, I wouldn't count out bootleg games. I wouldn't pay for one, though; if I can't find a game anywhere I could just borrow my friend's acekard for a few days.

Bootleg 3DS games on the otherhand, much less likely. You can actually update the 3DS, which is going to cause problems for whatever hax are required.

Well i know about flashcarts but i dont know any that spoofs an actual ds card. Mind taking a pic of the game card?

Bootleg 3DS games won't happen due to the encryption drm nintendo decided to use, the roms exist but we still cant use them, plus the roms are fricking huge compared to their ds predecessors.

[Tellemurius]

Sister says no on the photos, sorry.

what its not like im asking for scandalous pics

[The Darkling Wolf]

Dude, this is like the start of a creepypasta, you need to play through the whole thing or else.

This.

I'll be waiting to hear how Pikachu keeps looking at you weird, and occasionally he eats another Pokemon in gory fashion while chanting in a strange alien language.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Or every time you win a battle the trainer dies.

[misko27]

This is exactly like the one about Majora's Mask though.
