Rpgsr4me's Ravenous, Roaring, Raging Rampage of Random Banter #134
Der Rulez
Spoiler
1. Spam. For the purposes of RB, one word posts are generally considered spam. Likewise, posts that are nothing but *actions like this* are also be considered spam. Remember that the quality of the post's content is much better than the speed of your response.
2. This isn't the Play by Post or Town forum, nor is it the Silly Message Board Games or Structured Games forum. Please avoid continuous roleplay or mock battles and fights such as the "competition for control of the universe".
3. If it's already a thread, don't bring it to RB. RB has such a huge range of subject matter even restricted to the little snippets that probably don't warrant their own thread, it doesn't need legitimate thread topics cluttering it up as well. The exception to this is to bring something that is off-topic from one thread, but on-topic for RB and the subject doesn't warrant a thread of its own.
4. Don't advertise other threads in RB. Just because these new threads move at speeds more appropriate to a message board than an IM session doesn't mean you need to come over to RB and brow beat people into posting in your latest brainchild.
5. Please don't post single line posts alerting us to your current status -- as in "I'm back." This is Random Banter, not "How to stalk Random GitP forum members."
6. Don't poke, kick or bump the thread. It will move at whatever pace it wants to. Also, please refrain from Captain Obvious comments akin to "My, the thread is fast today."
7. Random Banter can only be as good, or as entertaining, as you make it. Demands to be entertained will fall on deaf ears unless you can add something more meaningful to the conversation.
8. As this is a public forum, where the current topic is nicely recorded for you, and not a conversation where you could have missed the beginning, please refrain from asking something to the effect of "What's the topic?". Please take the time to read up a bit first.
9. Thread Creator must include the words "Random" and "Banter" as well as the thread #. Try to be concise as well.
10. Every post should contain two visible, legible complete sentences, Subject and Predicate. C'mon, make your old English teachers proud.
11. Remember, Random Banter is not your IM client. If you want to have a back and forth discussion with just one person, look in their contact information for IM details.
12. Whenever a new thread is created, all "first post", "first page", and all posts of that nature will be deleted by the administrators. Please avoid doing this, as it is frustrating for them to deal with one-lined posts like this.
13. Double-posting is not your friend. We have edit buttons for a reason.
And here, linked for your convenience, are the previous incarnations of this thread. Previous Threads:

Better that than having a horde of new Skaven, Gal Civ II, Tropico 3, and a handful of new Warlord models staring you in the face...just waiting, waiting for you to give in...
It's okay, they say, give in to us...we'll make it all better...

I'm not sure I should be driving today.
Why, you may ask? Well, if I didn't know for sure that I didn't have enough time to take a webcam photo, I'd show you. But basically, there's a pinkish mark between my eyebrows right now, where my sinuses meet, and I can feel the dull pain of pressure building up right at that spot. It gives me the sensation of falling asleep, or not being able to fall asleep.
Not the sort of sensation you want when guiding half a ton of metal down a highway at 55 mph.
Nevertheless, that's what I'll be doing in about 10 minutes. This will supposedly help build my confidence with driving, though the way things are going, what it seems to be doing is building my hatred for cars.

thats probably not a good thing to be driving with....
Please be careful and dont hurt yourself. *huggles*

Yeah you're going to have to fix the thread title (like I did in this post! )
So, I'm working tech for our school's play. We have a looot of techies for it, so I'm spending a lot of time hanging out in the back somewhere studying whatever catches my fancy for my Learning hour, and often more than one. Shintoism, specifically the Kojiki, at the moment...
The issue is that it does last from 3:30 when we get out, until 9. But, lot of empty space in that time, so it works.

Me? I go to the vending machine and grab a snack and then come back and top off my coffee. By that time things are usually good to go again.
Usually I'm having breakfast (with extra strong coffee) and getting ready to go to work, so when I get to my office, things are running (albeit slowly) again.
