Yeah, it kinda did. Sorry 'bout the mess. *tosses the bartender a few coins* Now to make a public apology for my actions: @123456789 - Sorry for my behavior, bud. I like giving you a hard time when you give me a hard time, but I'm not sure if you like it if I do that. By the way, starting possibly tomorrow, you may consider me a Nintendo nut because I'll be getting a Wii U. And no, I'm not going to put Link (fitting as it may be) up as my avatar. I'm taking a break from video game avatars for a while and joining the 'Club of Members with Animals In Their Avatars'. @ Football Players Here- I actually don't have a problem with football players (both American and international), I apologize for what I said about you all. I like how you implement strategies to bypass the other players, very interesting. My favorite team? GO SAINTS!! Internationally? Um, it would depend on which country specifically, but focusing on the UK alone, I have to pick Wimbleton (sorry if I butchered the name...)
/topicshift It occurs to me that homophobia is technically a form of sexism. What else could you call something that says your gender determines who you're allowed to have sex with?
That's a stereotype, like the cheeto eating Skyrim players who treat women like extra terrestrials .... But look, I LOVE your new avatar it is awesome
Hey I'm joking too but congratulations on the Wii U. The time is right, with Smash Brothers and Mario Kart and winter
I completed the translation of a 62 page prosecutor's affidavit in support of request for extradition of twenty-odd Colombian nationals in a single day. Today. I feel like I just gave birth... through my wiener. I'll be able to quote large portions of Title 18 and Title 21 of the USC for about a week.
Nothing more miserable. I've been reading through Cal. Civil Code Section 3426, and I'm about ready to set myself on fire just so something interesting will happen.
I saved the agent's affidavit for tomorrow. Those are usually a little more interesting because they pertain to the facts as they happened, not the applicable statutes.
I was wrong. Not interesting at all save for the dire indictment this sworn statement represents as to the nature and malfeasance of the education this agent received, or did not receive, as the case seems to be.
Ever thought of translating fiction or poetry? It's got to be a lot more interesting than blah legal stuff.
It is, but it's not steady work. It's hard to make a living that way. Legal work often makes my brain feel like it literally freezes up in a Blue Screen of Death, but there's never any scarcity of work.
The only proper way to eat a marshmallow is to set it on fire and let it burn out, rendering the outside charred black and the inside hot and gooey.
Sorry @Steerpike, we're usually on the same page, you and I, but marshmallows are heinous. Texture issue, which is why I don't count the ones in Lucky Charms because the texture is utterly different in those.
@Wreybies as long as we're agreed that Lucky Charms are a valid food item (though I'm ambivalent on the oat portion of the cereal).
So I'm watching the first ever Batman episode ever! "Hi Diddle Riddle", aired in 1966. Anyone remember this first Batman series?
Adam West! The World's Greatest Detective in Briefs and a Cape! With Batmobiles and BatComputers and BatBoats and Batarangs and various other BatAccoutrements and BatAccessories! Pow! Zap! Bam! Yeah, I kinda remember it.
You are 33 years out. The first Batman was Lewis Wilson in 1933. It was more like Dick Tracey/Green Hornet than the Batman we know today. Have not seen any of those serial films since I was a kid.
