Random Rants : Pissed tae th' gills

[Farm Boy]

I also think the comments sections of news websites must be destroyed.

Dachs, I feel your pain. Just had to go through that [fudging] [stuff] again today, but fortunately managed to dodge the malware bomb. Unlike last time.

I feel a cold coming.
Decided to take a half day of holiday this morning due to that, because I really didn't feel like working.
And tomorrow housewarming party at someone else.
And Saturday 2 birthday parties here.
Great time management :/.

I may misremember, but when I ate at the college cafeteria there was a shockingly good singer out of the cafeteria staff there that would sing on karaoke night. Though in general yeah, other people who went up were either awkward, did a bad pop song, or in general just made noise I didn't want to hear regardless of whether it was good or bad (hint: never better than mediocre obv; karaoke is limited).

I could be wrong though.

Karaoke works in two situations - either everyone involved is good, or everyone involved is very drunk and is just pissing around rather than taking it seriously. Outside of these, it's horrible.

But...both prerequesites could be utilised way more effectively and enjoyably in countless other ways.

True, but if you are absolutely determined to have karaoke, then those are the conditions in which it is tolerable

You know these people who come and go, as everyone else.
These people who stay for a while and leave so courteously.
Agreeable visitors which for some reason you suddenly miss.
The men, the women, those friends or foes that came close.
So far they came all, so close, they did not stay with you.
Never think for a second that they did, for the lived in you.
It's your heart they warmly touched, they gently cared for.
It's your heart which fire they fed, your spirit they inflamed.
These people so close you thought they would never leave.
But as the others who just walked by, waved and faded away;
as those once did they went away, they left you at last.
At last alone again. The door is open and the warmth fades.
The fire in the hearth of the heart they extinguished on leave.
It struggles to live, but with no wood to burn, it's condemned.
Ride behind them, ride so fast, try to touch their heart.
Try to stay with them, to set a fire in their hearth as well.
Try so hard to become for them what they became for you.
To stay for a second in their heart and see their eyes smile.
See them spark as yours do, as yours did, when they stayed.

But you fail at it, yes you do, nothing could help it or help you.
Failure is a price to pay for letting them come close as they did.
Scream in fear, scream in pain, shatter and tear apart the world!
Smash the window, blow the door, break down the wall!
Cry out loud, just vent it all, and let it be, let it be you!
Scream and cry and whine and complain without an end to it!
Be just yo, be your heart, be your torn out soul without hope!
Be the song of a cold dead hearth smoking in the winter night!
Be what you are, be what you feel, be that cry howled by the wind!
Be a buzzing bee with the roaring of ten thunders beating your ears!
Be a the lonesome howl of the dark grey wolf, be a chorus of them!
Be the scream which fills your eyes with tears and takes your voice!
Be it all, and please be naught, be alive and please be dead!
Be the thought to torment generations dead since long ago!
Be the thought tormenting men and women roaming this world!
Be the thought that has to torment generations yet to come.

Term, term, term, term, term, term, term, term, teeeerrrmmm! Wonderful teeeerm! Teeeerm! Wonderful teeeerm!

I also think that karaoke nights in college cafeterias must be destroyed.

But, but… maybe you could have a karaoke scene such as the one on Regular Show?

I am unfamiliar with that reference.

I am not at all opposed to a having a knock-down, drag-out brawl in a college cafeteria.

No decent-minded person ever is.

boo wasted all day playing civ IV bts only to lose on what I'm pretty sure was my last turn to a backdoor diplo (I can't tell because my game has TXT_KEY errors from installation with how I had the unicode at the time for various stuff and I never bothered to fix it)--I.e. TXT_KEY_TURNS_TO_VICTORY was displayed instead of how many actual turns. Some civs are like "TXT_KEY_ADJECTIVE"; all random events are like that ("TXT_KEY_HAPPINESS"), etc etc.

but epic speed on the 15th space turn with a fully complete space launch

I also think the YouTube comments section must be destroyed. With extreme prejudice and flammable substances, if at all feasible.

So my mock trial team has lost three people to cutting and quitting. This leaves prosecution (my side) short two witnesses and an attorney, and defense short of a freaking defendant. We scrimmage Wednesday.

BUT I'M NOT PANICKING OR ANYTHING GUYS.

I find I pretty much always lose on my last turn.

 

[Takhisis]

So the defense has no defendant? Just grab some random natural sciences student outside and promise him candy.

Out of curiosity, what's your case? One of my roommates and a couple friends do mock trial, so I hear all about their case.

Gah, I forgot my ipad in a certain room in the school library where I work but it's too late to go back and get it because it's closed. So I'll have to come in tomorrow.

All I wanted to do was just charge it for a bit, but I underestimated my absentmindedness again.

The defendant is testifying, so that's kind of a big problem.

Likely the same one. Whit Bowman is accused of robbing RacheterWorld. Sound familiar?
