how to name your RPG character.

Diana

Shit, I need to name my dragon, and I don't have anything clever thought up

Jessie 

"princess thunderballs"

Diana

lulz

Maybe like

Something to go with kennedy and kruschev

Jessie 

i dont know if "bay of pigs the dragon" has much of a ring to it

Diana

ROFL damnit

I went with "Ike EisenMeower"

Jessie 

HAHAHA yours is good too

Diana

Bonus:  now Hiccup has to keep telling me how to take care of Ike EisenMeower

"Ike EisenMeower is too small to fly, but you can learn with our Hero Dragon!"

Jessie 

oh knowing that I would have named it something that fit into that sentence

like "this loser fuckface dragon"

Diana

DAMNIT

shoptalk.

Jessie 

a stable gaming job?!

you telling me you just got home from riding a unicorn would be more believeable

Diana

Le sigh

Unicorns have short lifespans

Jessie 

do they??  how do you know this?

or are we speaking in metaphor now?

Diana

LOL

Metaphorically

I have decided that the two previous jobs I had were unicorns

Precious, rare, beautiful, more suited to virgins than not...

glorious master race.

Jessie 

how ya been?

Jimmy

oh, good, good

this is the weekend where i build a new PC

and finally see what all this fuss about "graphics" is about

*cracks knuckles gleefully*

the quicker picker upper.

The season finale of Dexter had me disappointed, confused, even surprised and amazed as my backhanded-optimism and I ("The writers have nowhere to go but up") learned the hard way that "rock-bottom" is more a fluid concept than a ground zero.  But I wasn't outraged.  I would have been, but I'd used up my supply of that 3 seasons ago, when Scott Buck and his writers basically did this:

Deb: I was engaged to a serial killer who kidnapped me and tried to murder me.
Shrink: Right. 
Deb: Then a colleague turned out to be a serial killer.
Shrink: Right.
Deb: Then a boyfriend of mine got tortured by a serial killer.
Shrink: Okay.
Deb: Then another boyfriend got shot by a serial killer's daughter.
Shrink: Uh-huh
Deb: Then my sister-in-law was murdered by a serial killer.
Shrink: Have you considered fucking your brother?

mallergies.

Jessie 

The only thing I'm allergic to is penicillin

so as long as it doesn't have any of that...

Diana

hahaha

I mean, cooking penicillin renders it ineffective

Jessie 

I'm amazed you know that about penicillin

Diana

....you have to refrigerate it

If you don't, it doesn't work

Or it goes bad and turns into stinky cheese, I forget

oh kotaku.

If this work of art had a title it would be:    :D  --->  >:(

if i had an "about" section, this would be it.

Will C.

times they are a-changin'.

Dan

I hate bums in LA

Dan

Only because they're so fucking lazy

Dan

Like come on dude

Dan

It's 2013, your competition at red lights is Reddit

Dan

Time for a little effort with those cardboard signs.

sugar-coated warning.

Jessie 

so on this print-out list of their yoga classes

they make a special note if the class is taught by a guy

like below the time and difficulty level they'll have "taught by male instructor"

Amanda

polite-speak for "taught by flexible pervert".

lightning round.

Jessie 

if i ever come visit you in NY

i need to set aside a day for me to try to find the cash cab

ive always wanted to ride in it

Dan

Oh I can make that happen.

Jessie 

whoaa srsly?

you have a hookup with the cash cab?

Dan

In a sense.

When you have a gun every cab is the cash cab.

how to not lose your unemployment payments.

happy bioshock day.

Jessie 

this "manly guys doing manly things" webcomic

is HILARIOUS

Diana

Did you start at the beginning?

Jessie

Diana

hahaha

I am so excited

Ben pre ordered it, and then is promptly getting on a plane to GDC

Jessie 

HAH

i was making plans to trek up to GDC for the career booths

but then was like, wait

a) i'm getting free money from the government every week

b) much more importantly, bioshock comes out that week

and promptly decided, "fuck that noise"

Diana

LOL, priorities bitches

vampiresque.

Jess CK

i look good in person

Jess CK

but i never look good in photos

Jess CK

like i guess cameras can't capture swag

a cautionary tale against pulling all-nighters.

pro-tip: never leave someone who hasn't slept in 48+ hours alone next to a pool with one of those water-dwelling roombas in it.

not even to go work in your room 20 feet away like Jess did.

embarrassing shit like this happens to them (me) when you do.

oh hey, remember the upside of growing up?

Kristin 

one of the best things about being an adult..

Kristin 
is being allowed to eat corn dogs for breakfast

i would not do well in the slammer.

Below is an internal thought process I had moments ago.  

Hmm my gchat status is way old.

Got nothin' new to link to.. I'll just change it to my mood: "stir-crazy"..

*pauses, skims gchat friends list*

..I wonder if anyone would get miffed at that..

Pfff, who could that possibly offend?  I'm overthinking this.

..Although there was that time I didn't think twice before posting about X and then Person X made a passive aggressive comment about it when I ran into them a month later... So this might be worth a quick think.  Can't hurt.

If I were someone who would get miffed by seeing that gchat status, who would I be?

......A prison inmate!

I'm pretty sure no one on my gchat friends list is in prison..

Then again I'm not completely sure.. I've been bad about keeping up with some of these people..

Then again there's no wifi in jail.

*changes status to "stir-crazy"*

I figured I'd post it here in case I ever need a reminder of the following: 1) stop wondering--there is absolutely no way that you're an undiagnosed genius, and 2) living with your parents is turning you into a crazy person and you need to find excuses to get out of the house more.

facebook archaeologist

J

Completely forgot that Facebook had a "poke" feature, so I wasted 5 minutes of my life poking random people.

Jessie 

POKEFIGHT

J

haha

I don't remember why this feature exists

it's so dumb

Jessie 

it was something from back in the day when facebook first got introduced and was just something people used to get laid

J

I poked way too many males.

crap.
