[QUOTE=Shark Bones;44452703]Only time weed ever made me puke it wasn't even the weed really, I just got ultra-munchies and overate.[/QUOTE] Well, I was relatively rookie when me and my brother decided we should try and smoke one each and it was a bit too much for me, felt queasy and as soon as I stood up I gave my brother a moving-in present for his new apartment.

Overdoing it is [I]always[/I] the best option. :B [sp]Not really it's pretty good to restrain yourself. :c[/sp]

Gonna try to stream SF again, maybe not get so mad this time. twitch.tv/00disgruntled, if anybody wants to watch.

ow ow ow that injection hurt. at least this is the last one for awhile, and i got a bandaid with polar bears :D

Stream's over. I think streaming lags the game some, I was getting dropped inputs.

Got back from the dentist, almost done with my goddamned root canal. It's been three sessions now and I need a fourth one to apply the crown/filling/whatever. Pretty thankful for my insurance, I'm only paying like $50 for the entire procedure. I wouldn't call it [I]enjoyable[/I] but it's an interesting experience to have someone poke at my teeth for an hour using various power tools and broaches.

[QUOTE=Disgruntled;44453757]Stream's over. I think streaming lags the game some, I was getting dropped inputs.[/QUOTE] Dropped inputs are INCREDIBLY common when playing Street Fighter online, even if you're not recording anything. Capcom does not know how to netcode. Your Ryu was actually pretty good, you play the character better than I do. If I have any constructive criticism, here it is. Random/Wake-up Ultras: Of course we all know it's a bad idea, so do it sparingly. However, online, this fucker seems to work WAY too often. Walking Fierce Punch: It's a great move to combo into a Shoryu, but I noticed you kinda throwing it out a bit too much. Try to save it for punishes and use crouching forward/roundhouse and standing forward/roundhouse for your pokes. The fun about Ryu is he doesn't need combos to get damage. Use the fierce punch after people whiff uppercuts or after you land a successful crumple Focus. Shoryuken > FADC: I know it's a difficult concept, but it's really something that all Ryu players absolutely need to learn. If it hits, you can combo into Ultra. If the opponent blocks your uppercut, you can FADC back to make your whiffed uppercut absolutely safe. It's not too hard off a thing to execute, just do a Shoryu, and immediately after you press the button, press Focus and dash out of it at the same time. Buffering things after this can be hard, but the FADC itself is pretty easy. It's good to know if you think throwing out an uppercut is the best idea.

As of tomorrow I'm going to be getting paid to dress up as a lemur, livin tha furry dream [editline]4th April 2014[/editline] For the record I'm not a furry myself and this is probably going to be sweaty torture for me

I was just rescued from a random subway worker lady. So I'm kicking it in the rec centre, pulled out my laptop and just got cozy, when suddenly I notice something moving in my peripheral. I look at my right shoulder, and coming RIGHT at my FACE is this giant fatass grey fucking spider. Huge fucker. Certainly not intimidated by giants, because it was charging for my most vulnerable and precious spot, my goddamn face. I'm no arachnophobic but I was certainly feeling the adrenaline pumping into my veins. I stood up and tried to be as calm as possible but it wasn't working. I was trying to place my laptop carefully on the coffee table infront of me in the timeframe I had, but I ended up getting the mouse cord wrapped around the front of one of my boots. I wanted to throw my ACU top off and flee but I couldn't flee due to being caught the mouse. I frantically started undoing my top and went to throw it off when I noticed I forgot to unbutton my sleeves. FUCK. I also lost sight of the spider. DOUBLE FUCK. I unbuttoned my sleeves and in my gaining panic I took a step and yanked my laptop off the table. TRIPLE FUCK. The entire time I'm trying not to scream and so I'm quietly mumbling to myself "Oh god oh FuuuUUuuCK god damn what the FUCK what the FUCK what the oh gooooddddd what the shit" Luckily there's a subway in the rec center, and one of the employees caught half of what I endured, and saw the little (actually fucking huge) shit running away on the floor, came over and stepped on it for me. Thank you, subway worker lady. That spider won't strike twice, or catch another victim off guard. Now I'm all paranoid about him possibly having buddies scoping me out. I was informed that the spider was common and fairly venomous so I'm glad that my quick, while still somewhat clumsy actions got it off of me in time.

So I failed to get tickets to the dota2 international. I'm fairly perturbed right now.

[QUOTE=Uzbekistan;44453978]Mascot for a funpark, handing out leaflets, getting my photo taken with children, being abused by teenagers, that sort of thing[/QUOTE] I had to do that for volunteer work for one of the local theaters during their Family Day It's always fun kneeling down to the kids' level and then having them throw themselves at you as they all collectively shout "ELMO GUYS ITS ELMO ELMOOOO ELMO ELMO HI ELMO" and proceed to knock you backwards causing you to nearly lose your head. I'm glad I didn't lose my head though. Could you imagine if you were the kid that knocked Elmo's head off?

i want to volunteer for a zoo but the nearest one is like an hour away :(

For ages I've been wanting a record player to play all the Beatles albums I inherited from my father. To my surprise, I managed to get two today for a grand total of $7 from garage sales. The first one I got for $2, it's an old portable player from the 70's. The other is a USB one, that I got for $5 just in case the other one didn't work. I had to fiddle with the old one to get the turntable to actually spin at first, and sound only comes out of one speaker, but it works well otherwise. I imagine the speaker would just be an easy fix, although it might cost a bit if the speaker needs replaced. The USB one works perfectly. My only issue is that if you turn it's built in speaker volume all the way down in order to listen through your PC's speakers, there's still a little sound coming from them. Now I just need to look up how to clean a LP, some of them are a little dirty due to disuse.

Went to the uni's games club like I do every Friday, but none of the other Marvel 3 players were there. So I just practiced for most of it until some guy who hadn't played it in a long time decided to play against me for the rest of it.

However, when you start to get really good at it, the fun factor just dwindles into nothing.

It's always "Oh, well, I got hit by that nearly unblockable mix-up... bye Dante..." When I lose at Street Fighter I'm like "Shit, I should have burned my meter to get in better! I'm dumb!" but it's okay because I have a second round to fix up my game. Marvel 3 hates new players. It takes them and stomps on their nuts until they have no dignity left.

You get perfected in Street Fighter by making a series of really bad choices. You get perfected in Marvel 3 by eating 3 basic mix-ups.

Anyone ever play Marvel Nemesis? I used to love the hell out of that game. I'd always play as Spiderman and throw everyone off the bridge, like over and over again, and piss everyone off.

[QUOTE=HeavyGuy;44449738]So 20 minutes after waking up (that's starting to get to be a common theme) I'm asked if I can help move my sisters stuff out of her boyfriends house.

[QUOTE=NoOnE#235;44440275]Well, personally I use gaming to unwind a bit by playing relaxing/casual games like Wurm Online, MC or some other game that doesn't require a tonne of attention, but I guess it's not something that works for everyone. Music helps me too. [editline]3rd April 2014[/editline] Exercise and showers are great, too.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Toy_Soldier;44440498]Start up a hot shower and meditate in it.

(or rainymood.com, that works too. nice ambient sounds in general)[/QUOTE] Thank you all for those ideas. I had a rough night yesterday though. Had one too many drinks before I even got the chance to try something new. But tonight I had a candle going, listened to some music, and as of now watching a few (really bad) comedy movies. And I feel a lot better. So thank you again!
