A year ago I was playing Medieval 2: Total War with the internet running in the background, and a voice suddenly began explaining that runaway inflation was going to destroy America. For a few minutes, I was too focused on the game even to turn it off. Around the part where he described how it was responsible for the fall of Britain as a global power I realized that playing alongside it was very relaxing. Perhaps it was the stimulation of a human voice without the distraction of having to pay attention.

Worth investigating? Start playing games with lunatics speaking in the background today! (If it's one of those games you can't minimize easily just replace the soundtrack.)
 
The Royal Mile or something?
 
I'd take a guess at proximity of university colleges to a certain point in those places, but that's probably very wrong.
 
Welcome back mango!

rave: discovered lossless music. Probably should have looked into it earlier...
 
Yes, it has been! Lots of things have changed and university has given me a lot less time to go on forums, but it's calmed down now so hopefully I'll be able to come on here more often. :p

Eyy, I vaguely remember you! Welcome back! :D

Rave: I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a safe and happy one -- and for anyone who has to work in retail has a safe and uneventful work day.

I had a great Thanksgiving: singing labor songs with a 3 dozen American and Cuban Communist (they are UN.mission diplomats), and singing "Guantanamera" until we were all teary-eyed made my night.

Then the head of Cuban delegation says "It's hard for Cuban Communist family to feel at home in the US, but this is home.

Thanksgiving with Cuban Communists? Sounds like a Party! ;D

(i'll show myself out.)
 
My gamble paid off! Yesterday I told my professor I had forgotten to bring to class an assignment I hadnt even started, and asked him if he would be around in the afternoon.

He told me to leave it in his mailbox, so I reasoned that since he lives out of town, he would pick it up this morning at the earliest. It so happens that I had class at 8 AM, so I actually did research in the afternoon, wrotr it in the night and throw it in before going to class. I saw him with it in his hands a few hours later. :woohoo:
 
For the past few months or so, I've been feeling really good about myself. I can't point my finger on a specific root cause, just a vague sensation that things are going really well for me right now, and I am enjoying it.
 
Wooo! Exam season coming to an end soon! *back to bed and then to lurk in the study-bunker!*
No, not that. That day's xkcd was… interactive.

This is the kind of post that makes me want to start on my old idea of taking the first and last sentence of each post to see what comes out. I might be overly dirty-minded.

very regional
 
I gotta get on that straight ppl grindr.
 
I just assume that any problems I get from OKC are just more proof that I'm really not much of a catch. I dunno.

Rave: My group of friends and I have a Pathfinder campaign going. Long story short, the entire party but me died fighting a dragon. My merc character took it down without a scratch by keeping at a safe distance and shooting it with a crossbow, then severed its head, seized the cave full of fantastic loot, and used his new authority and wealth to launch a bloodless coup against the extremely unpopular local king and usurp his throne. My friends are creating new characters, and this new-ish campaign will center around them serving me in my new kingdom. :smug:
