Lemon drops. Lots and lots of lemon drops.

True, but they aren't in the Justice League show.

You dont have the money to say "I am too young to rewrite the Canadian legal code"?

They werent. I was just going on "How Gwyn might know DC trivia", there. Teen Titans prob wouldnt exist if it wasn't for BTAS though. (Insert praise of Romano *here*)

BOVINE? I AM A SHEEP. I AM NO HEAD OF CATTLE TO BE BOUGHT AND SOLD! I ... Am... OVINE!

I don't think those count.

Pretty sure he's refering to the hair dye, dear sir.

And yha, no money. Money's kind of important for the whole "become Prime Minster" thing.

Ah.

I'd finance this if only to see the results from an hemisphere away. Probably would have to sell another one of the souls I've gotten but would totally be worth it.

I'm going to shear you over winter break. Just saying.

@Being-Social: Does it count as being social if my boyfriend takes me places..?

And I see that the LaLaSheep is flourishing nicely today.

Yes.

No context.

Simple Economics and on, if you want to jump to Boss Knight. It's kind of like it Finn was in Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode, and also was a sociopath.

I second this judgement. I mean... He/She/It is going places

Sooo... in other words, it'd have about the same proceedure and price for anyone elses' achiveing a minister position? Soul trade and politics go hand in hand people!

It's all evil

It went pretty great.

We had our start of the new school year meeting at my dorm to sort out stuff like garbage management, cleaning and all that. I wanted to in my girl top (I don't really have any clothes yet but planning to rectify that soon since I'm not at home for the rest of the term. ) but I chickened out in the end and put on a hoodie on top.

Lots of new people! Only 2 people that I knew from last year. (I'm in the same dorm again.) So there were introductions. I was really nervous but introduced myself as Lena and said that if they were wondering why I had a girl name it's because I'm transgender. No big deal was made out of it. Conversation moved on pretty much immediately though cause there was tons of stuff to sort out with all the new people so I'm not 100 % sure if they fully got it. -.-;

But my name is noted down as Lena on the mailing list and on the little paper at the door that has the morse codes on it that you use for the doorbell to let specific people know that you are there for them. So yay~

Don't worry, if anyone is going to make a deal of it, it'll happen sooner rather then later, and will be dealt with quite easily, since I'm going to assume that your other dorm mates approve of it all, otherwise those who already knew might not of returned.

Also, that morse code idea is actually really ingenious.

[Mynxae]

Hopefully this doesn't break the 'meaningless posts' rule but..

THE FORUMS! THEY'RE.. ALIVE!

I missed them so much.

[Elemental]

It's amazing what one can accomplish when one has absolutely nothing else to do.

In other words, I can now speak fluent Frisian, play the ocarina, recite the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, do a handstand and have just finished drawing a pony version of a dark templar.
Actually, only the last one is true. The others are merely ideas of what I could have done.

Actually, I did manage to stave of insanity because I had a friend over and fed off his sanity via wisdom drain.

In other, relevant news, I may soon have a job if I'm lucky.

YAY! Forums! Sweet, sweet forums!

Hmm... Sweet and metallic...
This may be a worrying sign.

[Devmaar]

Wooo!
It's good to be back

Also I'm spending the weekend with my girlfriend
I'm gonna spend the day being all social and stuff!

[Teddy]

YES! It's back up again! I was starting to get really restless there. It's a good thing I've got friends at Uni to hang with in the days, because otherwise I probably would've gone insane and fled out in the dark forest to live as a hermit. Also, I acquired myself two new games just before the forum went down (but I've only tried one so far), so I've managed to completely waste my time with great efficiency nevertheless.

Also, I loved the message saying "If all goes well, the forum could be down for several hours". I suppose all didn't go well the first time.

ION:
You know you're obsessed with explaining stuff when you try to convince the lab assistent that's examining your code that you've done something wrong (or at least really stupid). I suppose some things could be said about honest and a general aspiration to improvement, but from a purely egotistical perspective, I'm an utter moron.

IOON:
Speaking of lab assistents, I've applied for becoming one in the programming course the freshmen are going to have, starting later this autumn and going on for ~4 months. I don't know if I've gotten the position yet, but if I do, it'll be my first real payed job, even if it's just 5-10 hours a week. :smallexcited:

Au contraire, if it didn't go we'll, it would have taken far less time. I took a full binary backup ahead of time, I'd have just reverted to the backup.

[Elemental]

I'll just assume then that the connotations of the term "several hours" varied wildly from person to person.

Oh, no-one knew I was trans before. This was actually the first time I really came out to anyone in real life. (Excluding therapist.)

Nah, it took way longer than expected.

Oh man, that sounds really fun. What games did you get?

Oooh, ok. Either way, congrats

ION: TODAY I MIGHT GET POKEMON WHITE TWOOOOOO

Also, when I got my Modest Deino that I need for my Subway team, I decided, for fun, to check it's IVs. It's got a 31. In Attack. Ie, the stat it literally HAS NO USE FOR. My luck!

[Dimonite]

OH, SWEET MERCY THE FORUMS HAVE RETURNED!
*prances about giddily*

[HalfTangible]

*sobs uncontrollably, grasping the forum* Oh good lord, you're back!

I see.

What part of it? Actively working toward getting myself failed (don't worry, I passed)? Or becoming a hermit, perhaps?

And the games were Master of Magic (old game, pretty similar to Civ, much of the inspiration for Fall from Heaven, pretty fun) and FTL (which is the one I haven't tried yet).

Yeah, I like that word, despite not using it especially much.

And thanks. I suppose I actually could get there with a bit of skill and luck if I try hard enough.

You're actually mostly spot-on. We do indeed have a penchant for the minimalistic, while we at the same time romantise the typical Falun red cottages with white corners of the countryside. And don't worry about associating Sweden with IKEA, it's deeply rooted as a part of our culture by now.

I was talking about the video games and playing with your friends stuff. I know you're smart enough that you wouldn't fail your classes, so it's nice to hear about my friends having fun.

Mostly cause it's one of the only ways I can have fun, kinda

Also, awesome. FTL is, from what I've heard, excessively difficult. It IS a Roguelike after all.

[Qwertystop]

Guys.

I just tried a Fire Emblem game (Sacred Stones)

WHY DID i NOT KNOW ABOUT THESE THINGS

That was beautiful. How long have you been playing?

Also I recorded it with a cucumber, so the sound is not fantastic

This led me to the other video on that channel. Now I'm typing this with a yardstick whilst whimpering in a corner.

[MoonCat]

So, it turns out MoonCat has enough of a forum rlated moscle emmory that after she's done using every tab on the computer, she clicks to the forum before closing the tab. :sma llsmile:

In news of aobut two days, Mooncat is going to see the Seattle King Tut exhibit in a few minutes, MoonCat accidentally kissed a girl (on the cheek) on what I think was Tuesday, and now has new stockings!!!!!

Oh, and she showed a bunch of people her fingers, as three DIFFERENT people went to her house this week!
