I just realized I have only met nice people so far at the uni.

Something must be wrong...

College is awesome. Enjoy yourself.
Community college, on the other hand...

1. I guess Diablo 2 still has an online component?
2. Diablo 2 is still for sale.
3. Diablo 2 still costs $20 to buy.
4. Websites are still selling Diablo 2 items.

Hey, man, that's like, a quarter of North Korea's exports.

That's because Diablo2 is still a good game, much better than Diablo 3.

Apparently people give their children Esperanto names. I can't imagine why (er, well, actually I can), much less why someone would give their child a creepy-ass Esperanto name like "made of candy" or "worthy of a caress," but it's sure useful for the book I'm writing...

Reminds me I need to go find a typewriter tomorrow.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I ... just got invited out to a bar, as "sort of a date if you wanna have it be that" by a court clerk....

While I have a fondness for the drink (that I'm trying to cut down on) and an aversion to drinking water (fish shit in it), she ... clearly has.... I ... er.... Th.... She understandably mistook a facade of confidence I live for flirting? I flabbergastedly turned her down with ... flabbergastedness? while attempting politeness rather than ... shock. Though, to be fair, came right outta left field and I am not even one for baseball (that metaphor sorta got away from me, so sue me).

I'm really hoping this doesn't turn awkward and things are normal, but .... That's like hoping Tommy's 1980 something Econoline Cargo Van is gonna start up the first time you turn the key. Sure, the engine might eventually turn over on the 3rd or 4th try, but no chance in hell for the first time with the key in the ignition.

Balls, I've gotta work with this woman on a semi regular basis.... She isn't necessarily a bad person, by any stretch of the imagination. Problem is, she just ... can. not. keep a secret. If we both had to take a drink for every secret we kept, she'd be stone sober and I'd be drunk, then dead and finally out of booze for the first time in years. Otherwise I might actually come clean to her about only liking guys, but ... ehhhhhhhhhh nope nope nope nopes. Noooooooohohoooooo no, o no no no no no no. Anything she knows is public record....

I think I said something along the lines of "I'm sorry but I can never be with somebody I work with...." and several other things while trying to be nice.

Yup... I'm gonna have to file things earlier to factor in for the inevitably longer processing times that will be coming with everything I do there for a while....

I ... just ... the ... what? When the flying crap did I get popular, at all?!? In school, if somebody put a gun to my head and said "get a date or I'll god damn kill you," then they'd have to shoot my dumb ass, cause that wasn't happening. Now this? ???

Videos are all related, you don't need to watch them all to understand the point I'm trying to make.

could you imagine if they did that with books

*man opens book to random page and starts rubbing it on his face*
*someone says to director "Thats not how people read books'*
"Shhh..... The people that watch this sort of stuff don't read, I doubt they'll notice anything is wrong"

also, don't forget to use as many literary terms as you can think of, Jam packed into the craziest combination you can think of.

"Ugh, the leaf thickness of this chapter is terrible"
"if you look closely, you can see a slant onomatopoeia in the fourth iamb of the second pentameter."
"I love how this novel classically integrates the syntax of this connotation with the metaphors"

or just plain getting things wrong.

"This book *shows a copy of A Tale of Two cities, where the title is clearly legible* is called Hop on pop, written by William Shakespear in the 1960's, you know, that french guy?  yeah well this book is amazing, it's about this little kid and his stuffed tiger who build snowmen, and there is a toy donkey in there somewhere who doesn't have a tale that smokes a pipe and solves mysteries, but yeah, it's a classic"

I choose not to watch those videos, because they could potentially ruin the WTF quality of the rest of that post, though it seems unlikely.  That whole thing should go in the OOC thread.

How bad is it that this actually makes perfect sense to me?
