It is definitely possible to be thrown out of your own party. The main thing is to be unpopular enough that folks want you gone, yet capable of getting them there in the first place - for instance, by offering expensive refreshments, or cheap booze if you're at a college. Also, if it's on your property, being too much of a wimp to call the police.

definitely not speaking from experience here or anything No, seriously, this is actually a joke post.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Either my family is insane or they've been running into people with telepathy. Or spirits.

A man walked up to my nan, and told her to "Trust in Jesus". This was at the hospital. He was probably just trying to keep peoples' spirits up, I think.

A woman walked up to my mom in Walmart. Helped her pick out a rug. Then told her to "be strong".

Meanwhile, all I get is propositioned by an elderly asian man. Parked by the side of a highway while I was walking home, asks me to come into the back of his van for two hours, and that he'd pay me. I said no.

Ron Perlman's Australian accent in "Enemy at the Gates" is most bizarre.

Particularly since he's playing a Russian.

No. Probably should have. I don't know what he wanted. Wouldn't say. Just said he'd pay me if I went with him for an hour or two.

Best you can do is write down his appearance, maybe anything about the van that you remember. Seriously, this story reeks of a kidnapping-in-the-making.

EDIT: Whoa what happened there

that quoting made me go wtf

Also tomorrow's going to be interesting.  I planned to stay up tonight to work on the pile, but the RP session ended early and I find I'm just... so sleepy.  I just have to really focus on it tomorrow, that's all.  It'll be easy once I hit a rhythm.

Tomorrow morning.  I'll fix a big pot of stew, put on some repetitive techno, and just do it.  Absolutely won't think about when exactly it'd needed on Friday, because I don't know, and I'll just procrastinate if I think about that.  Wait, think about what?  Exactly.  zzz

The girl from the 15 episode of RWBY volume one (geez that's really specific). She's so strange, and what's worse is she reminds me of me. Or maybe that's a good thing. I dunno :P

You talking about Penny? Yeah, she's not half-bad.

Well, considering that while reading that I thought you were Neonevik, until I looked at your name... Yeah, that probably means you are pretty strange! :P

Less time was spent between me making the ki system for Sparking and me beating undertale than me beating undertale and now

it... really doesn't feel that way...

i think i may have just been very unproductive in the last 6 months... oh.....

EDIT: what's with the comparisons between Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft, like, I know Notch was inspired by DF but it's basically in the sense of involving digging, that's it, the very most basic elements of both Minecraft and Dwarf Fortress's gameplay fail to be present in the other (Minecraft is based around unique items and blocks, Dwarf Fortress has neither of those to any respect; DF is based on complex systems interacting with each other, Minecraft... isn't even remotely). It's actually really fascinating, I like both of them for utterly different reasons.

Next version of DF I'm going to try porting as many Minecraft mods as I can possibly consider useful, though. Adventure mode is going to be legitimately playable that way. Still no magic items that do anything, but wait what the hell I invented magic items that do things in DF I'm not sure why I'm so bummed about it "not being possible".

The air conditioner in this room is making the classic poison gas seeping into room sound effect. Just what. Do I know too much and must be eliminated?

Give the AC some percussive maintenance and the sound should stop. The gas flow won't, though.

Let's not get me kicked out the university four just that. Plus it's a central ac kinda deal so not sure where I'd erm, perform percussive maintenance.
