  1. I Had A Random Thought...

    So I was working all this weekend... You guys really go to some messed up places VERY quickly. Thought I'd point that out.

    and you thought it immediately necessary to post this on the forums? I'm not sure if that's dedication worth admiration or pity. Can't be worse the Ben Affleck. ZING!

    Well, if you're a vegan that's essentially the same thing as being homosexual, right?
  4. General Video Game Deals Thread

    AW PLEASE DON'T REMIND ME I'm poor enough without steam making me (and yes, MAKING me) spend money on games I will never play
  5. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Steam Sales of note DmC 40% off ($29.99) Dust 10% off ($13.49) Prison Architect 10% off ($26.99) Alan Wake 90% off ($3.00) (or $4.00 for ALL DLC and American Nightmare) Those are the ones I currently give a shit about.

    I'll still keep the doo doo mouth to a minimum for the site's sake. (btw; "doo doo mouth" would be pretty weird medical shit)
  9. No Ambitions, any advice?

    There are things I absolutely love: my short stories, video games, art, philosophy; but to spend my life dedicated to a single pursuit only to find out that there are no jobs to be found in that area scares me to death. I don't want to spend my family's money (or alternatively face massive debt) on a gamble like that. Which is why I at separate points thought "Human Resource" and "English Teacher", jobs that will always be in demand (I don't necessarily have a passion for either but they are jobs I think i'd enjoy while also being realistic aspirations). But what I've gathered from reading all of your advice is that I should take the time I have now to try and enjoy myself; and hopefully in that time develop skills which can make my far off dreams seem more realistic. Maybe like you guys I will start in one field to discover another that shares the skills I've developed. And if all else fails, Russian Hey Arnold. Thanks to everyone who took the time to share their thoughts; I hope there are other users who find this thread as helpful as I did.

    Motherfather. Am I allowed to swear? Just curious.
  11. Weird Medical Shit

    I got my caps redone 3 months ago, it was a relatively painless experience. Also drugs... lots of drugs.

    How else can we show emotion on the internet? Thank you Idle Thumbs; For letting me imply over 100 emotions I couldn't begin to explain in real life. exactly.
  13. No Ambitions, any advice?

    I'm sort of immature, talking about dicks and what not, and I am generally pessimistic regarding A LOT of sh**. I'm sort of just a kid, and I don't really want to change that fact. As per the debt conversation The concept of debt scares the crap out of me. My sister (now going for her doctorate at USC) has incurred more debt than I think possible for her to pay back given the best job she can probably get would be to teach (which she already does AT usc). Also my family has always been in debt, since i can remember at least; it's one of the reasons I am hesitant to go to school (My family would have to front a lot for my sake, and I would rather not have them dig deeper holes for me to end up changing my major a bunch). My very specific fears are that I spend way too long realizing I hate major 1, go to major 2 and immediately regret it, find out I LOVE major 3, graduate and then come out the side of the system and not be able to find a job. All while incurring debt for myself and my family. Pessimism. Which brings me to why I posted this; there is nothing I love enough that I would risk all of that to pursue.
  14. No Ambitions, any advice?

    That's pretty much where I am now. A - Make video games, but I feel i'm not talented or creative enough B - English teacher, but I don't think with my personal philosophies I should be in any position to influence youth Also, I've been in the middle of making a games journalism blog for quite some time now, but I consider that more of a hobby than anything else.
  15. I Had A Random Thought...

    I've been here for 3 hours now and have talked about genitals 5 times. I know your strife sir, I just choose to embrace my addicktion. That being said, I understand if for the good of others you choose to lay down your meat sword, I've had to do the exact same irl.
  16. I Had A Random Thought...

    You need to stop holding back for the sake of others. True expression is talking about your wiener whenever you see fit.
  17. No Ambitions, any advice?

    I agree with that; I have been out of school for 1 year now and I can literally chart my regression with conversation topics. I want to continue learning, I'm just not excited or optimistic enough to spend any amount of money to do so.
  18. I Had A Random Thought...

    That's bloody handy. ...and yes, that was my sad attempt at a pun.
  19. I Had A Random Thought...

    I just go for it. I also say wank a bunch. It's generally fine, except when the two coincide...
  20. I Had A Random Thought...

    I just started using these forums, and IMMEDIATELY I noticed that I get corrective reminders whenever I spell a Canadian word (ie, Favourite, Colour, etc) It has made me question everything I know...
  21. Weird Medical Shit

    Aside from a disappointing penis, the most annoying part of my body was the now removed gallbladder which despite decent blood tests produced unexplainable gall-stones which were actually really small. I initially thought their being small was a good thing; Nope. They were able to travel down some tubes and shred the inside of my pancreas (which, as you would expect, hurt like a motherf***er). After having to schedule the surgery (btw, I was 18 at the time) I told my mother who said calmly, "Oh right, I had to get my gallbladder out when I was young to." "...What?" "Yea, every one in my family did." Thanks mom, thanks...
  22. Favorite Game Of All Time

    This is a tough one for me; I like to consider myself an enthusiast, and so I have abundant respect and appreciation for numerous games. Fallout 3, Red Dead, Limbo, Bioshock Infinite (as of late), Witcher 2, and Dark Souls all circle my top listings, but my absolute favourite game has to be Portal 2. Reason is, I have never once enjoyed a gaming experience cover to cover (or whatever the equivalent of games would be) as much as I did Portal 2. The humour was on the nose to my own and what Portal has over any other experience (in my mind) is that after completing it I never once felt the need to play more. As a would-be-completionist (if time allowed) I constantly find myself looking to replay older titles but in the process lose the impossible to recapture first-time experience. The game was everything I wanted it to be, and everything it needed to be to justify its existence. I could go into how I cried of laughter the first time in my life from hearing the words "Edge-less Safety Cube" or how I to this day proudly chant the words of Cave Johnson when my friends say "When life gives you lemons..." but to those who played Portal 2, you already know the experience. I (for whatever reason) just found it to be the greatest atop any game I've ever played.
  23. New people: Read this, say hi.

    I'm new. Hi. jmb are my initials, I guess for sanity's sake you can call me Joe. I have nothing else to do with my time between playing Dark Souls on Steam or Battlefield/Halo on xbox besides posting on forums; and after minutes of careful deliberation I have decided this is probably the best place to share my enormous amounts of helpful thoughts (mostly regarding society and genitals). So yea, maybe you'll see me posting about. If you're interested in chatting feel free to add me on Steam (id; Bossy) or Xbox (gt; Bahssy). And sorry to disappoint (in advance).
