The funny things thread
Alan Rickman (or more accurately, Snape) his fangirls say you're outdated. His fansgirls are overweight 40 year olds.. I say they are outdated!! good day sir.. I personally know a whole wave of Alan Rickman fangirls (at least 15) and none of them are over 25, none of them are overweight, and most of them are attractive. I also know that Alan Rickman's wife has had serious trouble with the amount of hatemail she gets from his legion of jealous fangirls. Do not underestimate the power of a dark brooding British accent with black hair. Just look at Loki, or Sherlock. They have the same fangirl "demographic".

What you did today
Well done young Grasshopper !!! I'm interested what did they ask you in the interview? Was it straight work related questions or anything that you didn't expect Straight work and experience questions, really. Apparently I got really lucky, because all their internship positions were filled, but about ten minutes before I applied one intern cancelled so the guy figured "maybe it's meant to be" and didn't grill me so hard.

Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls - new expansion
Malthael was formerly the Archangel of Wisdom, but he went missing and has now reappeared as the Angel of Death. Many people expect Imperius the Archangel of Valor to go through a similar transformation and end up as the Angel of Wrath, as hinted during the Diablo III: Wrath animation.

Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls - new expansion
Well, it entertained the hell out of me and my co-op friends so I'm definitely getting this.

What are you playing now?
Hmm. My GoG versions of Dungeon Keeper and Syndicate American Revolt both worked fine without a hitch. I plan on buying Dungeon Keeper at some point but I got that the old discs to work (using fan patches) better than the official version - Theme Park World, on the other hand, hasn't been released on GoG and pretty much requires a ton of patches and fixes and even some hex editing to work optimally.

What are you playing now?
Good lord, I love old school Bullfrog games (Dungeon Keeper, Theme Park, Populous) but are they hard to get running on newer operating systems! Took me almost two days to get Sim Theme Park (the european release of Theme Park World) running just so I can experience some nostalgia!

A little found-footage horror film called "Grave Encounters" that was alternatingly hilarious and surprisingly effective. It was hopelessly derivative, some bits were plain silly and the effects were awful but on a whole it had a creepy atmosphere, nasty jumpscares and enough twists to keep it fresh. Essentially it was half a ghost hunting show parody and half a straight haunted house movie. I recommend it for late night popcorn munching, you'll find it funny or scary or both and either way it's entertaining.

Origin Of Your Name And Avatar
My name is a reference to the alignment system in D&D which I picked because at the time I was a project manager and spent most of my time mediating. I don't use this nickname much anymore, everywhere else I'm known as "Funderbunk" which is a child's mispronounciation of "Thunderpunk" which was a possible nickname I was kicking around that said child overheard me saying and repeated. My Avatar is my personal mascotte. I made it.

Did you ever read Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves? It's character driven horror and pants splittingly weird. I mean really, really weird. If you haven't already, you might want to give that a try. If anything, it'll keep you busy for a while because it's not like other books.

Tried to fry up some potatoes, took me 40 minutes. I'm a good cook, I have no idea why these wouldn't get done.

I watched it to see what all the fuzz is about. Spent the entire movie wondering not what Rosebud was, but how anyone knew Kane's last words since the room was clearly empty.
