Curly's Rambunctious and Erudite Random Banter #140

What happens if they don't reject you?

What happens if you have more sex in a year than many people will have in a lifetime. Combined?

What then huh??

Seriously though good luck, I'm rooting for you...sort of, feels mean hoping someone will get rejected.

Well, if I don't get rejected, go me. If I get rejected, it's their loss, really but still, I'm closer to finding a good girl for me.

[Trobby]

Woahtreadsplosion! o.o;

Bleh...I think whatever's affecting me on Steam has started affecting me in RL, because I suddenly started feeling cruddy for absolutely no reason.

Well, my favorite aunt is here, so I'm going to go eat chips and meatloaf with her.

Scrabble anyone? Chess? Risk? Mahjong?

I'm in the mood for playing some games.

Wait, scratch chess. The site I used has become crap and I don't have a replacement.

[Fifty-Eyed Fred]

Let's play the waiting game.

[absolmorph]

Hey people. Last night I got to a decision. As a few of you know (or I'd hope so, but I won't hold it against you if you don't), next Friday is my AFONAL. I'll be 24 and I made a decision. I'll be rejected by 100 women before I'm 25.

That is a strangely admirable goal.
I salute you, sir.

[Player_Zero]

I already was. Waiting for someone to want to play something.

So, anybody has an opinion on UFC 112?

I'm a bit disgusted. As much as I would want to admire Anderson's skills, I must instead "admire" how complete prick he turned out to be.

Instead of finishing fight, he gave absolutely awful performance, which consisted of taunting, and probably disrespecting his opponent. Taking advantage of the fact that judge doesn't know Portuguese.

He was clowning and taunting Maia to "engage", while he was doing almost nothing - to show hell knows what.

I don't know why he is doing this lame stuff with kneeling and stuff, only to ridicule his opponent during actual fight.

I hope that somebody'll do the same to him - if he want to abuse opponent just to show that he can - Ok, I want to see somebody hold and heel hook for a bit to long. Just to show he can too.

Thoughs?

Poor showmanship always makes a performance unpleasant to watch.

They forget that their purpose is to entertain with their bloodlust. It is the fans' place to cast judgment and vitriol.

In terms of the performance, it is better for them to kill their opponent than to taunt them.

Morally, of course, the entire premise is... highly flawed.

I'm honestly not sure if you are being serious.

They "purpose" is to fight with somewhat "complete" fight. There aren't much more "bloodlust" in it that in boxing, judo. Or in football, even where worse injuries happen quite frequently.

In terms of performance it's better to finish opponent in a fight, than to taunt him, dodge the fight, and kick his face just to harm him, abusing opponent from some sick reason.

Events today occurred in this order:

Forgot that I have a rubbish right knee. Well, rubbish both knees, really. But the right is the pertinent one.

Speed-walked for 70 minutes today (to raise money for breast cancer. Er, against it).

Sat in the library for 4 hours, allowing myself to stiffen up.

Proceeded to limp back to my dorm, hanging onto the banister as pain radiated from the side of my right knee.

Iced it for 20 minutes. And it's still noticeably warmer to the touch than the left knee.

...

Well played.

[Player_Zero]

No scrabble then? ...Fine. Who needs ya. I'll play by myself.

Risk!? They have online Risk now? Good lord, man! Why didn't you tell me sooner?! I'll play! I'll Play! ...Can I be red?

But we'd need more players.

[Trobby]

;o I bet I can get a few.

Edit: I'll need to make an account though, and so will they.

[Coidzor]

I... I think I might be game for the old college try at risk..

I'm scared out of my knickers though. And confused as to how I was wearing knickers without realizing it.

[Player_Zero]

When you're registered tell me who you've got and what their usernames are and I'll invite them to a game then. We'll be playing classical rules if you don't mind. No leader or fortresses.

[Trobby]

Fair enough. I'm registered up. My name's Introbulus. Er..how will I know when you've sent the invite?

[Player_Zero]

Go to the main page while logged in and there will be a notice.

[Trobby]

...Not an open public game, I assume? I'm having trouble finding it.

[Phase]

Player Zero, the black tendrils of your mind have penetrated my subconscious. I follow you as per example.

Do you know of the Skull Man?

I know of *a* Skull Man. Which one are you referring to?

Also, you leave my tendrils out of this.

...Not an open public game, I assume? I'm having trouble finding it.

I haven't invited you yet because I'm waiting for you to give me other players so I can invite them. You have to decide upon them before the game begins.

Ah. Actually, I think I need their email addresses to invite. Also, you'd better turn off the 'It's your turn' email notifications I think it may set as default.

Alternatively I could just make the game without invites... But I've never done that before.

"Behold, you who stand before me. The day shall be my arm and leg, the night my soul.

[Trobby]

I could only get one other player, and she's still signing up. I'll let you know her e-mail when she's done. Mine's [email protected] (no solicitations).

Edit: I'll PM you the info.

[Coidzor]

Signed in and up as Coidzor. AKA Coidzure Dreams.

[Player_Zero]

[Need your email thar, Coidzor. PM if you wish.

Game's up. Look for the notification and click the game name to join.]

For no one who's interested, I won.

For the scrabble follow-up game. If you two wanna play then it's on Lexulous.com. In the Multiplayer Room as always.

[Trobby]

I'm interested, and so is the uh...person I brought from before, I believe. But you'll have to give her awhile so she can sing up for Lexulous.

I squeezed a cow booby today! I also fed a calf, a goat, a chicken, and I almost fed a duck, but I hate them.

I love cows!

[DraPrime]

I squeezed a cow booby today!

You know, after being on these forums for 3 years now, you would think I wouldn't get surprised anymore by what people can say, but apparently I still can.

So, was it a nice booby?

[CrimsonAngel]

There were four of them...

[Coidzor]

I am so confused. Why do you hate ducks?
