Random Rants LV: The Joy of Ranting

[Takhisis]

Go back to Chicago, man.

 

[Joecoolyo]

If only Chicago was any different.

 

[bhsup]

Yeah, right, no.

I think you mean, "Yeah, right, yes." Some creepy bastard approaches a woman in the pre-dawn hours and says he wants a kiss? Stun his ass, mace him, then for good measure have the dog bite him in the kneecaps so he'll be less likely to be able to continue following. Then call the cops.

Hobbs, I am glad it turned out okay in the end, and FWIW you're doing the right thing.

 

[Borachio]

Mebbe he's mentally ill. Or desperately lonely. Possibly mentally ill and desperately lonely.

Plainly deserves all he gets?

 

[Takhisis]

I think you mean, "Yeah, right, yes."…

V, there's a difference between a stun gun (or mace, which I dont' disapprove of outright) and shooting someone with a Magnum, don't you think?

 

[bhsup]

He said the gun was for home defense.

 

[Cutlass]

It's probably too much gun....

 

[Tee Kay]

I need to get out of this house fast.

 

[Takhisis]

Then, what are you doing at the computer?

 

[gay_Aleks]

Because he's holding the gates. The gates of his fortress.

And everyone on Facebook and Twitter will now know!

 

[Tee Kay]

Then, what are you doing at the computer?

Getting out of the house. At least virtually.

 

[Takhisis]

Oh, It's a serious case, then. If you live on the ground floor, you should be able to dig your way to safety by digging under your floorboards. Otherwise, get a Rita Hayworth poster to cover the taillesskangaru-shaped and -sized hole in the wall.

Getting out of the house. At least virtually.

Right there with you....

What was that poster in the Shawshank Redemption? Was it of Rita Hayworth?

edit: seems it was, too!

 

[bhsup]

Yeah, Rita was the first one. However, the warden threw the rock through Miss Fuzzy Britches. I don't recall if there was anyone between Rita and Raquel.

 

[The_J]

Wanted to order tickets for an event at the end of next may.
Got the notification that the presale has started 3 weeks ago.
Already sold out.
WTH?

 

[Arakhor]

Would this be Glastonbury? Tickets sell out ridiculously quickly.

 

[Takhisis]

Tickets for today's River Plate v. Boca Juniors match were sold out in under two minutes and then it was a free-for-all with people trying to resell them. Does the same apply to Glastonbury?

 

[Arakhor]

I'd imagine so, yes. Glastonbury 2015 sold out in less than half an hour this week, a whole hour faster than last year.

Damn stalin in civ IV: BTS

i played quite a lot of civ this weekend (after not playing since, idk, february or so, except maybe a random weekend in there). Seemed harder than I remember (I used to play emperor/immortal borderline, doing quite well on emperor, this weekend lost ~6 starts on emperor)

A couple of those games were going well, but just now played ~5 hours on a real solid game with Shaka but freaking stalin and montezuma wouldn't stop declaring war on me. Sucks too that I randomly got to found confucianism because apparently no AI wanted to build the oracle and everyone else converted on the continet (stalin, monty, qin shi huang, hammurabi). "We are very pleased with you! -> declare war"

Namely stalin, frack him. 2 times had to experience the "Uncle Joe declares war on me, then every other AI does." First time I actually came out ahead. Not the second time
