Happy birthday, Dogmantra. Eat some cake for me, eh? Oh, wait, the cake is a lie!
I used to play Oblivion, then I took an arrow in the knee.

I just saw something amazing on GTA IV. I never knew people modded GTA...at least I think it was a mod. So I'm just driving around the airport and this guy is following me with a police car. At the time I was under a red light so I didn't notice anything strange, but once the police car goes out of the red light IT WAS PINK to which I said over my mic "DUDE where did you get a PINK police car?!" to which he replied 'I don't know, i found it" then I hear someone say "You have a RED Annhilator?! I want that!" soon after I see a helicopter door fall in front of me, it was red. I looked up and i see an entirely red annhilator. Well all of it was red except the propellors. I was so amazed and scared I said "OMG I'M LEAVING" and I left the game. Soon after I regretted leaving, but I was so freaked out because I've never seen anything like it.

I did a whole lot of nothing today. I was supposed to go to the bar and watch my friends band play but im kinda bored of the same thing over and over. So instead im just gonna sit around and play video games.

Oh and happy bday dog. Next time i take shots at the bar, which obviously wont be tonight i will drink to your health. Im not gonna lie, im not gonna hold up the glass and say, "to dogmantra!" because i will get weird looks but in my mind i will say that.

Today, we did about imaginary numbers in Maths.

It was fun.

At the end, my teacher recommended a book about it, and wrote down the ISBN. I half expected it to have i in there somewhere.

Indeed, sir, happy belated. Notice I chose your birthday to not get on the forums at all?!

Don't worry, just a coincidence. :wink:

Look, Cactus, I know you don't like me, but you don't have to spend my birthday away from the fora just because of it.

Yes. I do. You can't fathom the loathing barely contained within my soul. If rules didn't dissuade me, I'd have you banned and flogged. Oh.. yeh.. I forgot to mention, that's a Mod Power now : public flogging. :D

Well I've had a very productive day playing Morrowind, culminating in a daring raid on the Telvanni Vaults to get the Ebony Tower Shield that's in there, which involved a lot of waiting for guards to move, telekinesis and Ekash's Lock Splitter scrolls...

Today was sucked up by going to the Swap Meet. And I made commentary on everything to myself.

First off, it was nice. We mainly went for shirts. But, like always, it turned into something... different.

We first looked at a whole bunch of things. And walking down large outdoor "aisles" if you will. There was a guy with an invention, that, you would get a truck, lower the back door part of it, and get this contraption that made a bench.

EVERYONE seemed to like it. I guess I didn't find the use in it. Of course, I thought "If he had Billy Mayes he could make millions.

We pushed further on and saw an "As Seen on TV" booth. "As Seen on TV" are the people majorly responsible for things like the "Shamwow!" Commercial, Kaboom!, and so on. Flea market products.

We passed by a booth about Star Wars, and other things. Figures littered the tent walls (if you can call them walls...) and I thought two things:

"My history teacher would love this place." (He's a Star Wars fan.) and;
"I should ask if he's on the UESP." He seems like he would. :p

I then got a Pepsi, a damn good Pepsi.

We then walked into a Clothing shop. With AWESOME shirts.

I got my own "1UP" shirt, A Sergeant Peppers and the Lonely Hearts Club shirt, and then a funny Homer T-Shirt which I can't explain in words. We pushed onward.

At this time I thought I needed a few coconuts for a reenactment of, dun-duh-da-duh! Monty Python. But then again, I was with my parents, so I decided not to look for them.

We then were in a sandal booth for half for about 22 minutes. I didn't get anything, my parents were trying on sandals. Grr...

Then, when we walked out, my mom got attracted to another Jewerly booth. Me and my dad pushed onwards to another Clothing Booth, but then went back to my mom who was deciding between a Red or Blue Necklace. She then bought the thing. I thought only one thing.

That guy has a GREAT Barter skill. No really, I thought that. Another Fallout 3/Oblivion IRL moment...

We went onwards, got some shorts, and onwards.

We went onwards, went in an RV on display. Pretty cool. We then walked down and hooked around. I tried to a void a certain booth, because it had a Hustler promotional poster. Seriously, why the HELL did they have that? I could see a kids booth not to far...

Walking down, I saw a some skin care thingy sponsored by Oprah. Oprah wasn't there, but there was a sign that had Oprah on it. Well, it wasn't a sign, it was more like a 10x11 printer paper with Oprah on it and saying that she talked about this product on her show. I also noticed something:

Nothing yet?

THEY RIPPED THEIR LOGO OFF OF A GAME. HOW PROFESSIONAL. GRAHHHH.

We then had good BBQ. Yum. Briscuit sandwich, FTW. I also ate a Churro prior to that.

We then walked up and got a deal on some vegetables and fruit. Then I saw a clothing booth with shirts of some bands. Like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, The Who. All good, and all, but they didn't have System of a Down. So I walked away.

And that was it.

Of course, because Billy Mays always convinces people into buying his stuff with his shouting.

I made spaghetti this morning, but unfortunately I forgot to buy a bell pepper and some fresh mushrooms when I went grocery shopping. I had to make Epic Fail sauce. :cry: I miss my peppers and mushrooms in my spaghetti!

Mushrooms? You're better off without them. They're the anus of the food world.

My sole achievement for today has been putting Spotify on my dad's computer for him because from my description I don't think he realises quite how awesome it is. I think now all I need to do to convert him is to find an album that he had on vinyl in the 70s and hasn't listened to since then and play it on Spotify....
