Random Raves X: Success Tactics

[SS-18 ICBM]

Great news. It's good that your hard work paid off.

Kimchi is so ubiquitous that the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) developed space kimchi to accompany the first Korean astronaut to the Russian-manned space ship Soyuz.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Fall in love with a Georgian girl, and when Russia invades you join the Georgian army and help them heroically defend Tiblisi against the Russian horde and in the end through some stroke of plot point, you win and learn a valuable story about love, honor, and how humans are all the same and environmentalism.

Your new girlfriend hides you from the Russians in a convent, where you are forced to live for years without leaving the grounds, for all traces of the memory of you must be erased from the locals. While the long years pass, you become further enthralled with the Russian Orthodox Church, convert, and begin studying to become a priest. But the instructor is cruel and takes advantage of your vulnerable position to use you as his personal beat-stick. Two years of this warps your mind and leaves you with deep emotional and physical scars. You finally work up the courage to climb over the convent walls and begin to wander around Tiflis, and in the process discover that the Russians have reconquered the country and integrated it into the Federation. Driven by a quest for vengeance against the Orthodox Church, who corrupted your mind and body, and against Russia, who corrupted your new land from what you loved, you join the local communist party. For a while you're nothing special, but you keep their bills paid by robbing local banks and leading small parties to sack the mansions of the wealthy. After years of careful planning and research, your party cell decides it is time to raise revolution. The plan goes down like this: one hundred of you will enter the White House disguised as Georgian tourists; your party chief will begin a diversion with a carefully-timed, careless collision with a guard, with whom he immediately begins a loud and angry argument. As this happens, you all slink off to the bathrooms, where you defecate a small bag with the disassembled pieces of a miniature porcelain handgun. You assemble them. Then, ten minutes after the incident began, it all goes down. You quickly overrun the building's guards, who are caught completely unprepared and cannot tell ordinary civilians from communist agitators. Your party boss falls in the action, and you assume command. Within an hour, the building is completely secured, Putin is forced to abdicate, and the Red Flag flies over the roof. The Soviet Union is re-declared, and the parade floats in Red Square open to reveal SCUD missile launchers and T-90 tanks. Lenin rises from the dead. Since an undead man clearly cannot rule, he serves as your Consigliere. You now proceed to abuse your new-found power, conduct a thorough purging of all levels of the party, and banish capitalists to Siberia by the tens of thousands. The Orthodox Church is severely repressed. To spite that old convent from so long ago, you have it converted into the Georgian Communist Party's official pornography and erotic film theater. Your work having been done, you fire everyone in the entire government, then retire with your girlfriend to a dacha on the banks of the Ob' to farm potatoes and raise rabbits.

I am now running Linux Mint after endless frustrations with Windows.

The switch has been far less painful than I thought it would be.

Dinner tonight = lamb, beef, pork, and most importantly and tastily, kangaroo.

Tailless will raise HELL when he hears you're eating one of his cousins!!!



For me, not only have my cousin and HER, HER(!!!) boyfriend FINALLY moved out, buuut...

My Pomeranian suddenly developed a liking to me(maybe it's the food, though), and as a result, is now snuggling up to me. <3

 

[choxorn]

I take it you mean your cousin's boyfriend and not yours?

And yeah, the kangaroo is already missing a tail, eating it will just make it worse.

 

[Tani Coyote]

¡Ay caramba(general Spanish exclamation for shock or disgust, like "OH GOD!")! Yes, my cousin's boyfriend... curse my cigarettehood!

And yeah, the kangaroo is already missing a tail, eating it will just make it worse.

...Are you implying he's eating Tailless? I said it was tailless' cousin!

This is suddenly far more awkward for me.



...And that's saying a lot, considering I'm a v-phile.

...Pray said Kangaroo doesn't walk into this conversation, because I think he'd probably WTH out.

 

[choxorn]

Well, they could both be missing tails.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Well, they could both be missing tails.

Verrrry savvy, Choxornian Emperor, verrrrry savvy.

...Is it like a requirement to remove kangaroo tails in Australia? Maybe like it's response to Sharkfin soup?

Kangatail soup!



My rave is the third iteration of the OT Empires theme seems to be going VERY, very well! Who knew actually laying down rules could change so much?

 

[choxorn]

Having seen a few DYOS threads self-destruct, I knew that would happen.

 

[azzaman333]

I'm not wearing any pants.

Or any other clothes for that matter.

 

[Tee Kay]

Rave: finally managed to figure out a maths problem after almost an hour. Now I have to write the report...

Tailless will raise HELL when he hears you're eating one of his cousins!!!

I quite like to eat kangaroo, actually. Kangaroo pie in particular is awesome.

...Is it like a requirement to remove kangaroo tails in Australia? Maybe like it's response to Sharkfin soup?

Not sure. If so, they don't remove the tail specifically (unlike shark fin hunting).

 

[Camikaze]

Actually surprisingly, the beef burgers tasted better than the kangaroo fillet, although the lamb, mint and rosemary sausages probably topped the lot. It's probably the extra bits (i.e. mint and rosemary) rather than the meat, though.

I'd prefer kangaroo fillet to any type of beef or lamb

 

[Camikaze]

Well, it was better than the lamb steak, porterhouse steak and pork medallion, I'll give it that. And with the added healthy heart benefits.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Rave: I FINALLY FINISHED AN ENGLISH ESSAY WORTH 8-10% OF MY GRADE AFTER DAYS OF PROCRASTINATION! 8D /allcaps ...Now onto the rest of the nightmare.

I'm not wearing any pants.

Or any other clothes for that matter.

Fight the system! Clothes are for hippies!

Cannibal!

...Makes me wonder what it tastes like, nonetheless. Pity is I live on this side of the Pacific.

...I dunno whether to be intrigued or scared. This is like hearing about spiced dog in some Asian restaurants. What makes it more awkward to me is that Australians would eat their national symbol, whereas it's considered practically blasphemous over here to eat, say, a bald eagle.

At first, I assumed this was just some inside joke Aussies use to like, scare the foreigners. ...And then wikipedia showed me aisles of kangaroo meat.

...But if it's good stuff, I cannot blame any of you. If I ever manage to cross the damned ocean, MAYBE I'll give it a try. I'm a _very_ picky eater, especially to stuff that doesn't seem familiar to me.

Japan would be my nightmare... having to choose between rice and fish... oh joy. Doesn't that sound WONDERFUL?

Spring Break!

 

[Mirc]

An ex-girlfriend of mine from Romania is going to come visit me on Wednesday, for 6 days! That is a rave in itself (since she's just an ex because of the distance, not because of anything else). And we're gonna see a concert, and then I'm gonna have her as a guest in my concert on Friday. I'm looking forward to both events.

However, in the meantime, I also got together with a Turkish girl, who knows the organizer of my concert on Friday - meaning that she's also going to be there. Damn. I'm not sure what to do. It's gonna be pretty hard to find a convincing way of keeping them both separate! But who cares, I love this kind of problems!! Even if it ends bad, I'm gonna have another great story to tell my grandkids. So after this one's gone, I'm gonna have the Turkish girl all for myself until the end of the month. And at the end of the month, I'm going to visit another ex-girlfriend of mine, when I fly back to Romania, before I go to Bucharest and meet up again with the one that's coming to me on Wednesday. My schedule is full!! I can't believe that 3 and a half years ago, I had never kissed a girl, I had never had a girlfriend and I was incredibly shy when talking to females. Who says that changing your own self is not possible?

Got my assignment done, 14 minutes to spare. Now I'm showered, shaved and recovering from over consumption of caffeine. Once that's complete I can finally go back to faffing about.

I feel somebody ahs to applaud this post.
