1897 When you run up to a bully, kill him. And say "Let me regale you with tales of adventure!" and expect not to be arrested.

1898 You then scream "A ambush! Curse them!" at the police and attempt to kill them.

1899 You then escape, run into a building, and scream "A vile force of darkness has arrived!" at the arriving SWAT team.

1900: It may already be here somewhere, but I constantly find myself holding shift and trying to move the cursor in large jumps when manipulating any sort of text or selection process on a keyboard. So much so that I programmed the 2,4,6,8 button on my Razer Naga to skip around a page, almost like a tab without shifting the text.

1901:  You observe a large flattish hill, with thick tree cover, abundant grass, and a little stream running below it.  You notice a short cliff on one side with exposed rock below a moderately thick soil layer, and order "Dig here."  It takes you an uncomfortably long time to remember you're waiting for a bus, not surveying a new embark.

Listen up: making a thing a ‼thing‼ doesn't make it more awesome or extreme.  It simply indicates the thing is on fire.  Get it right or look like a silly poser.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

Happened to me on Friday.  That was awkward, but less than it would have been if the woman who waited at the same stop had arrived a minute earlier.

I am currently investigating what Brainfreez is on. It is the greatest drug that any man, woman, kobold or pony has ever seen, going off of that everything he posts is pure win.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!
