Ok, I'm sorry, but I'm going to throw my hat into the ring here and say... WTF? How is this acceptable behaviour? If you spoke to someone on the forum like that, we'd all tell you to stop acting like a complete tit. If you spoke to my sister or mother like that, I'd never speak to you again. How is being obnoxious and threatening in any way amusing?

Yeah, I noticed that. What a bunch of douches.

It's an advert, but it's funny... uGi_r9xlvqE

Where are you based at the moment? You're probably right, though, the next step would probably to be surrounded by it.

Step 1. Don't post in the "Life" thread asking for advice on how to improve your writing. But seriously, this might be better in a whole thread of its own, as I imagine lots of non-native speakers here might have some advice? (Or not, I have no idea.) I can't give you any tips, I'm afraid, but I imagine watching English language films/reading English language books probably helps? You seem pretty capable so far

Or two thousand and one?

She then texted to say she couldn't make tonight, but hopefully I'd see her at next week's event -- NO MENTION OF OUR DATE. So she's basically talked herself out of it, or something has changed. Lesson edit: she seems to have It's not a huge deal. Twas just a chance encounter that went well. It's just that I don't have a huge amount of other stuff going on.

It's the rather fantastic IT Crowd.

No offence caused to me, I just thought that if Daisy is a woman, it might be a little rude to automatically assume she's a man.

I never get tired people thinking that's an accident...

Yeah, but both of them still would like to do it... Even the actors miss the show a huge amount. Where there's a will, there's a way

Ah, she just texted. Will probably be seeing her tonight at the venue we originally met at. So there you go.

For me, I'd probably: Buy Monkey Island on the condition that Dave Gilbert and the other two agreed to work on it together. Buy Grim Fandango and give it to Double Fine. Buy Halo Jones and give it to Alan Moore. But number one: I'd fund Firefly -- but that would likely be a LOT more expensive.

I don't believe our latest member has revealed their sex yet? (We do have women posting here.)

Lol. Don't worry, I wasn't hassling her! It was just two texts. One said, "No problem. When are you next free?", quickly followed by "Ooh. How about X?"*. It was almost one text, but in order to be technically correct, I said "texts". * - Paraphrased** ** - And by "paraphrased" I mean I removed all the poetry about undying love.

Oh, shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit! :tup: How utterly wonderful that something big might be created for the love of it, rather than because marketing says it's "viable". I think Psychonauts 2 should probably be episodic. Just my 2c. Now I feel totally happy about paying $20 for Minecraft. Also, somebody buy Notch a copy of Firefly. (Has anyone else wondered what they'd fund if they suddenly became Warren Buffet? There's so many wonderful things that could exist if people weren't so hung up on making a profit -- and Psychonauts 2 could easily make a profit, if you ask me.)

So now I'm more irked by my date not responding to my texts. She was keen as mustard, and now she's using silence to day, "Sorry, I've changed my mind"? Pretty lame! Ah, poop.

Thompson, holy shit dude. It's amazing to me that bullying could go so far, and cause so much damage. I'll never bully anyone again. What a fucked up education system! And how you'll look back and realise those guys were total morons, who didn't know what they were doing. Very glad to hear that you're doing better now. A growing self-confidence is a wonderful thing! * - Kidding, I've never bullied anyone.

It's a great sitcom. Not very deep, but a great sitcom. Highly recommended. Watch the pilot, if you don't like it, move along (it hits the ground running, unlike Arrested Development, etc.).

I've had quite the opposite experience. I found Oblivion to be overwhelmingly dull, but I've loved what I've seen of Skyrim so far. (I have a feeling that I played Oblivion "wrong", though.) On another note: I'm playing it with a joypad, much to my surprise.

Yeah, hit me up with some of that old school stuff. Someone else in the US just started doing the same (although her letter seems to have gotten lost in the mail -- which is not a good sign for the future of such things). Why not have two of you?

You can't post that without posting this sZ-aRwEbp5I

It's all coming out... I'm also going through some tough times. I've been wrestling demons for a while but I think I've learned that my bouts of existential angst are actually pretty much bullshit, as real as they feel sometimes. At the time I'm convinced that my unhappiness is to do with the "meaningless of it all" (*faux faints*), but looking at my own patterns, really it's entirely to do with me feeling unhappy about my life. For the past three years. So, in order words: Happiness == Happy to be alive. (Duh! *slaps forehead*) This may seem like an obvious thing to an outsider, but it's something I've just had to realise (remember). Feeling disconnected makes me feel worse about everything, whereas feeling good (i.e. connected) makes me feel much better and able to come to terms with anything. Now... to try and fix my unsatisfying life before my next bout. (Not likely.) Oh to feel like my life was actually going somewhere! In other news, my date for this evening "postponed", and has ignored my texts asking when we might reschedule. Ah, well. I'm not actually all that upset about it, as I didn't really know her, and it all came about very easily, which makes me feel that it will again. I wouldn't have minded some rumpy pumpy, though. (Not that I'm the type of guy who goes in for one night stands, but feeling the excitement that comes from closeness would have been a lovely distraction -- however superficial.)

Very true. Such is the magic of film!

That's the truth
