    I don't think Hurlshot was stalking when she didn't show up. There's an unfortunate number of bad people out there. I worry about my female _friends_ never mind my girlfriends. GD: What I'd point out is that your other half seems squared away. Maybe she uses the admittedly generic advice in the horoscopes to stay that way. If there's many ways to skin a cat (proverbially speaking), then there's many ways to be awesome.

    Ribeye steak and mash for lunch with Spanish red wine. _Saved the fat_ Pasta with sauce made of tomato, garlic, anchovies, beef fat, two rashers of bacon (sliced) basil, fresh spinach, and scraps of mash to thicken. Dry white wine to cut across the heaviness. Just fantastic, to my palate at least .

    So it's only creating music, not recording it via mic?

    You'd have to go some way to be killed by Shank or Carbo as a Fighter though, as a Mage you're one bad throw away from the ignominity and embarrassment of it. Low level BG either sucks, or is some grade A 24 carat trolling. Unfortunate that achievements weren't popular back then, "Killed by Shank" would be a badge of dishonour to be cherished by all. Speaking as a nerd, I have to say that I wasn't at all surprised by the experience of me and my friends running squealing from some low level thug in the street.

    There are frenchmen in LA Noire? When all you have is a hammer.... I have to nip out to buy meat for lunch. But will be back later when I intend to crack open 1) a bottle of Spanish white from Navarre 2) Some elves' torsos.

    I can see why you wouldn't look too closely at the posts, but you DO see all the comments about Euros and Yanks being crap?
  7. Walsingham
    Come on, chaps. can't have this die off! Am on station all today, although will mostly be shooting Frenchmen in ETW. Or perhaps LA Noire.

    There's also the fact that even dwarvish fellows like me have trouble getting into and out of the bloody things. I'm rarely troubled by claustrophobia, but sitting in the driving seat of a Soviet tank is like wearing a wetsuit made of hammers, inside a dustbin. A dustbin that is slightly too small. Inside another tank.

    I met a Scandinavian officer who said that the ejection of shell casings certainly caused injuries. To supporting infantry. Nothing quite like a tank design which actively discourages infantry cooperation.

    I also agree. Whatever your stance on immigration from countries with developmental issues, it is just common sense to acknowledge that those immigrants have particular needs for integration and support in getting settled. Probably my biggest bugbear with the Left in the UK, is not their helping the poor. It's their helping the poor so poorly.

    riiiiiiiiiiiight.

    Out for a few drinks last night. I really must be losing weight, as I haven't had someone confuse my age for a while. All I'll say is that for a 25 year old I've got a damn good beer belly. Although I will finally concede that I do in fact have quite a nice arse.

    I'm not watching some fellah die, first thing on a Sunday. Not if I can help it. All I'll say is that simply shooting someone doesn't necessarily stop them dead <sic>. And that we (in the UK) had a completely random and innocent girl stabbed to death on a bus just the other week.

    So not only did they pick a cage fighter, but a fully warmed-up cage fighter?

    Working on Saturdays is a goddamn sin. Nah, it's OK. I quite like a good bit of physical work. You get your objectives and *bam* you're off. You either get it right or you don't!

    I've known several very good intelligent Russians, and I am quite certain that if they read any of this rubbish they'd be instantly sick into a bucket.

    I'd favour a voluntary expatriation program. For anyone and everyone. "Think England is just crap? Fed up of living here in the same dingy flat? HM Queen Elizabeth II will pay you a cash sum of $100,000 to rescind UK citizenship and f*** off, unto the nth generation." Cheaper than funding most malcontents to stay in the UK, considering benefits and the damage done by crime. We'd start a new diaspora of cretins. It'd be like that bit when turtles spawn and their young head out to sea.

    Had to do a double shift on the 'shop floor' today. My finger ends are all busted up, and I think one of my fingers might have actually started to melt. The nailbed looks distinctly weird. Wound up being 'standing up straight' tired. That phase where you're quite capable of doing the same over again, but if you don't remind yourself of this fact by standing up straight, shoulders back, you'll begin to slouch and then deflate like a party balloon.

    And how is that compatible with free speech? (open question)
  20. Walsingham
    So is it just a penetration issue? Your post sounded to me like there were others also.

    Actually I agree, I do think Oby believes Russian culture is superior to Western culture. Its flawed and horribly incorrect but its easy to see how someone can believe that when they only have access to certain sources of information. You can see this from his numerous links I have always said " the Internet is the greatest source of information of the 21st century, but it can also be greatest source of misinformation" I don't think Russian culture is inferior. I am opposed to the lies he is promulgating precisely because they defame Russia most of all. His is not the Russia of the valorous poet or mathematician. It is Russia of the venal bully boy and oligarch. If Tolstoy were on this forum he would challenge the sordid ****er to a duel! If Altschuller saw his posts he'd spend 40 years working out how to prevent another one!

    I remember listening to a distant gun battle when I was a kid and thinking it sounded exactly like that, actually! You must have lived in a really tough neighborhood. Not IN, near!
  23. Walsingham
    Refs on those dissatisfactions would be very helpful. If you have time.

    Are you funting asleep? These radicals <sic> are not immigrants. They are the sons and grandsons of immigrants. Frequently the parents are quite nice, hard working people. Consequently, none of your countermeasures apply.

    Either you're becoming a mature adult who's interested on a relationship above sex or who's interested in other sex Sometimes your pre-conscious will pick up on danger signals your conscious mind can't. I'd strongly suggest that this was the case here. Beautiful is all well and good, but it doesn't compensate for having to lock yourself in the bathroom all night while they offer to circumcise you with pruning shears. Or set fire to your flat. Or steal your cash. Or give you explosive herpes.
