I bought a pair of gloves at target...and before I put them on I imagined myself typing Wg.

[cerebovssquire]

I had some beers and ouzo last night... and before I drank them I imagined myself typing "will you please come over because I am ashamed of drinking alone this often"

[1010011010]

  Code:

<minqmay> i had a dream once that i bumped into a shelf and knocked over a bottle of dick enlargement pills and like 50 dick pills fell into my mouth and i swallowed them in surprise
<minqmay> and i freaked out and was afraid my dick was going to explode
<minqmay> but then i remembered that dick enlargement pills don't actually work so i calmed down

[Arrhythmia]

Like for realz. Arrhythmia is my internet nickname almost everywhere. The 'full version' is Arrhythmia Zcoll Hyrtoy and is basically just a weird name I made up for myself back in High School. Another common nickname for me is Lucien Michael Fatima or Luc for short. I almost never use my real (read: legal) name outside of legal documents. I am actually trained as a game developer and quite capable. Here are a couple links from LD28 (competition/challenge to make a game in 48 hours).

Game

Warning, it's buggy; because I made it in 48 hours, then never updated it.

I've lost my way for quite awhile; not really the first time this has happened. After I walked in graduation last year (needed 3 credits to actual finish; which was internship credit); I went back home with parents; because I didn't really have anywhere else to go and...I've been pretty heavily afflicted with cabin fever. Don't feel like working, feel like talking to people or having social interaction, but there's none to be had. (Had the same problem every single summer growing up; hazard of being in the middle of nowhere. Makes me hate the fact that schools have summer breaks at all. Hell high school me would have been happier at a boarding school than he/I was back then in small town with parents. Though, I never would have majored in game design if I hadn't gone months of the year every year with no social contact and constantly playing games to keep from going insane. Hell, I'll follow that by saying I came out of the closet at 14 and middle of nowhere town wasn't that accepting. I'd done it -because I was lonely- and -because I thought maybe if I was honest about it I'd find someone. Never happened. Bulk of negative reinforcement from schoolmates gave me anger and drive to be salutatorian (and graduate a year early at 17).

First semester of college; I lost 110 pounds out of...actually having a social life and actually being out in the world. Being back with parents; has honestly caused a regression; though I'm not obese again, thankfully. (Mostly, because though I'm back to living like my parents; I don't EAT like them anymore, being vegetarian and selecting all my own food.) I was supposed to be working on a major game release to try to make a break out. Make enough money to get out of here; do enough work for myself to count as the internship. In practice; I'm too much of an extrovert to ever be happy working alone without in person contact and wind up; trying to talk to people online just to simulate actual contact with the public. I'm stagnating again; neither happy, nor sad; just completely out of myself. Have been for awhile. 23 now and haven't finished college (Barely, because of that internship requirement I haven't fulfilled in a year). Not sure what I hope to accomplish by sharing (some) of myself; but this is the place I'd been stuck talking to, while the real world doesn't exist; so thought you might like to know.

I have ideas and ambition for the real world; it just hasn't been actually manifesting in a long while.

[Greyr]

Déjà vu.

[Ironfoot]

What is this irl sorcery I keep on hearing about?

[Blomdor]

Drinking alone is what all true warriors strive for! Particularly when followed by attempting to get the golden rune while carrying the Orb and worshiping Xom. We both agreed the results were quite hilarious.

I went to the hardware store the other day and assigned base damage values to all the axes I found. There were hand axes, slightly larger hand axes, and double bladed two handers. Nothing really corresponding remotely to an executioner's or a broad axe, but a bit of im-ag-in-aaa-tion can solve that problem.

I assigned a base armour value to the pipe insulation as well. It's surprisingly high!

EDIT: Having read Arrhythmia's post, I would simply like to wish him the very best of luck and commend his bravery in sharing some of his experiences. May you be exceedingly successful in your endeavors.

dude puked outside my apartment door today

god bless america

[gammafunk]

ch...cheibrodos?!

[Cheibrodos]

Hi Gamma! My prof didn't show up to the final so I'm just chillin

[gammafunk]

That's outstanding. And since it's an unexplored design space, could I get you implement a crawl vault with the theme of a prof. not showing up to give a final? I think neil might also have some insight on this.

[Cheibrodos]

I was thinking my next vault would be about the failings of neo-Marxism but I've got time
