What are you playing now?
Same for me. Unless there's at least one competent team mate with me, I refuse to play. i play a pretty damn good Janna, so most of the time i can keep stupid people alive it's just frustrating when you have all 4 other team mates instalock ranged dps and demand mid

What are you playing now?
been playing a fair bit of League of Legends mainly to help a friend keep his sanity. he gets insanely frustrated with how moronic people can be in-game, so he knows that if i'm on the team at least he has one other person who knows what they're doing

Marijuana legalisation
personally i'm more in favour of decrimilisation rather than legalisation because honestly, i feel that people are being villified and imprisoned for a rather minor offence. i've always found it incredibly moronic that someone can go out and get horribly drunk, smashing bottles in the street and generally being abusive, yet if they are sitting at home toking a joint somehow that's worse? the "War on Drugs" is not working. it never has been, and it never will

Marijuana legalisation
can you honestly say legal drugs aren't capable of the exact same thing? people will always choose to spend their time/money on self fulfillment, be it drugs, shopping, drinking, gaming, etc etc personally i feel that people should be more educated about their choices. you see young teenagers getting disgustingly drunk almost every friday/saturday night, because half of them feel that's what the norm is. a lot of them after a couple of years decide it isn't for them and cut back, or stop completely. by the same token you sometimes see people partaking in illegal drugs also, be it out of curiosity, or because they feel like the social stigma is unfounded, or even just because they see it as a way of "rebelling" i'm not trying to say drugs are good, but then i'm not trying to say they're bad either i just don't believe that illegal drugs are the source of all the ills in society - people are

Marijuana legalisation
personally i think it just comes down to the individual all drugs, legal or otherwise, have differing effects for different people i know people who can chain smoke and feel fine, but i know people who feel faint after a single puff i know people who can drink and be jovial, yet i also know people who could be described as violent drunks i know people who smoke a lot of weed and have held down a $150k/year job for years, but i know some stereotypical useless lazy potheads i know people who take acid and mushrooms and have never had anything but fantastic trips, but i've heard people's stories of bad trips too i know people who take antidepressants, and feel like their world would fall apart without them. but then i know some others who take the same things and are horrified at the effects is has on them i've tried a lot of different things. some i've enjoyed, some not so much i think it's more about knowing your own limits and knowing what works for you i never really drank much in my teens, and when i did, it was always to stupid degrees. i didn't know my limits and i didn't fully understand the effects it was having on me as with most other things i've tried, i've waited till i got older and learnt more about myself personally i think it should be decriminalised at least

Movies you've seen recently
just saw First Class the thing that bugged me the most was actually the shoddy wire work and prosthetics it seemed every time someone got smacked or pushed around there was a second or two before they'd actually react and go flying. as for the prosthetics, Mystique looked like she was going bald, and Beast.... ugh also, was thinking that for anyone not familiar with the comics this may have been a bit of a confusing movie, with Azazel seemingly a copy of Nightcrawler, and a female Angel with completely different powers. i think maybe they could have elaborated slightly, or even just used different characters to try and avoid such confusion

What you did today
the worst i've done was probably going out to chop some firewood with an axe and forgot to put some boots on went well enough for a while, until i started getting tired and with one big lazy swing missed the piece of wood completely and got myself square in the foot

What you did today
spent the weekend at my gf's her cats have really taken a liking to me, but i'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, as they keep waking me up in the middle of the night because they want attention. i'll be off in my blissful slumber when all of a sudden i get smacked in the face with a paw and as soon as i open my eyes i have a cat purring very loudly in my ear

HBO's Game of Thrones
Cheers for the spoiler you ****ing cretin. not too much of a spoiler when you consider that no one in this series is safe and it's still unfinished who knows, he might be next on the chopping block in the next book

What you did today
gah was just making dinner and felt my phone go off in my pocket. i flipped it open thinking it was a txt only to stare blankly at the screen for a few seconds before realising it was a call evidently it was about a job and so i had to pretend to be a normal person for a while it seems however that i'm adequate at talking ****, so i have an interview tomorrow for the role

How is dark side in this game?
i found playing darkside rather dull people who would gain influence with darkside options would mostly gain when you went for the "you answered my question, so i have no more use for you. DIE!" options plus i never really liked any of those characters HK47 is disappointing. T3M4, a utility droid, gets more feats than a supposed combat droid G0T0 just sucks Mandalore is okay, but hearing "for Clan Ordo" constantly just started to irritate me Hanharr may be strong and have lots of hitpoints, but the fact that he can't wear any armour/helmets means he constantly gets hurt. plus Mira is waaaaaaaay better
