North Slabovia

Well free market thats a bit ..... complicated.

Theodonian

My younger sister is better than me for only one reason. she gets you backed into a corner and spams the ever living crap out of you until you have like 300% damage. IT IS SO INFURIATING THAT I COULD GO ON A HOMOCIDLE RAMPAGE, KICK PUPPIES, AND STOMP ON KITTENS. And I just relized thats what I think about when I am zoning out. But being almost 16, I and Slabovia(is 16) were blessed with quick thumbs, but newer generations have,to my regret, have quicker thumbs.*zones out* anyway, I think i will join the WA to also.

Gone are the blessed days where our younger siblings would gasp in awe of our smash brothers (albeit N64 version) supremacy. Alas, it is the way of the world that we one day pass the knowledge and skills we have obtained onto the youth in hopes they achieve more than we ever could. My only wish is that this day would be slightly further into the future so that being so thoroughly owned by a youth would not be such a brutal humiliation...

And wb Maniaca!

The 64 version is my favorite!!!

Theodonian

So, I decided to order Jennifer Government last week. I thought I could take a break from writing my own and wanted something to do. So I got the book. I sat down, read it cover to cover, and thought.WTF. That book is amazing!!! It's action packed and has a great story line. There was not one page where it was dull. It had some intresting twists and kick @$$ characters to boot. best 6 consecutive hours of my vacation. I wasnt going to post this but no one has posted anything in 5 days.

Maniaca

your insight is much appreciated mrs. barry!

what kind of book are you tryin to write, theodonian, Eragon part five?

Post by Theodonian suppressed by Ospokaip.

Theodonian

mrs. barry? And please, Eragon part four hasnt even come out yet. And my book is an anthropomorphic novel about a world of poverty and injustice. The first version was kinda extreme fiction-wise. it had this badass scientist while on the way to developeing a serum to increase his lifespan, created a viral desease that turns your every day citizen into a mindless beast. And the good guys have to stop it whilst solving inturnal diputes amoungst themselves. it kept getting further and further away from the way it was soposed to be, so I started over. Now Im just confused. I'll post the first Chapter and you guys can see how you like it.

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

if you get it published i will buy it. call me a doubter but I get the feeling you'll have to rework it a few more times, but that's no big deal, part of the process and stuff. I had a phase where I wanted to be a novelist but it takes a sh|tload of patience, and I find revising extremely boring--i can't imagine writing 300 pages, only to REwrite 300 pages, and then rewrite again. whew!

Post by Theodonian suppressed by Ospokaip.

Theodonian

I've been writing it for 3 years and your right about patience. I'm trying to put it in the forum because it is to long to fit here. Plus, I did get to page 318 before I decided to restart, but its easier the second time. Did you ever start a book. if yes, what about?

Post by Theodonian suppressed by Ospokaip.

Theodonian

it might take a while. Im going on an editoreal rampage. LOL sorry.

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

Make sure you put it in the art & fiction forum (which i didn't even know existed til i just looked. We used to have 4 forums, and loved em, goddamnit).

When I was 12 I started writing a book about animals that talked and went to war with each other. Like a Redwall clone.

Since I grew up (lol) I've been writing poetry like the sad little emo boy I am, which I enjoy much more

Theres a place you can live where you never have to grow up. Never land!!! Of course, everyone there started crying about why they are worthless and now there all drug addicts.

Well I've returned with good news and bad news from the land of the dead.

Good news: Alcatraz gained a fantastic new member, The Colony of Craddis, in my absence.

Bad news: The Free Market Network of Maniaca fell out of the world top ten 10% for Largest Trout Fishing Sector

just goes to show, you can't leave the house for more than a day at a time and expect your trout fishermen to keep up their end of the bargain

no, aparently there is a founder of a region who has a flag like mine, but one of his 'loyal subjects' didnt find out until they saw me in the forum. But to add insult to injury, they said I was pretending to him while spreading my 'ill will' and lied about banning me all the time. @%$@$ nazis

what is the practical point of making embassies take a few days to complete. It's not like there's any actual gameplay benefit to having one, nor are they permanent to warrant a grace period in case I change my mind. Seems goofy to me.

Jesus Christ my foot is killing me. Filled in for my buddy in a barefoot soccer tournament today and it feels effing broken. Running interval sprints at 6:30 tomorrow morning. Process Analytics exam (plus Investment Theory and Managerial Econ exams on Wednesday). Listener called my boss and said I used the "F" word on the air. Plus i have meetings for my other 2 jobs tomorrow night. On my 21st birthday I'm buying a compact handgun so I can blow my head off in situations like these. It's a travesty that I'm not old enough to do so, despite putting my life on the line in the service.

Suddenly my life feels insignificant in the universes insatiable need to make me feel puny compared to the rest of the world because in its infinite time and my fianite existance compared to it, the unknown likes to make sure that I am one-uped by everyone else.

Im depressed. The only time that im not is when im on the computer, and hanging with my friends. But usually im on the computer.*sigh* Oh, what do you do on the air? My earlier comment was in response to the one before the last one you posted. You do a lot.

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

My buddy and I are asst. program directors and co-hosts of a radio show on WSND, 88.9 FM, broadcasting in the Northern Indiana/Southern Michigan.

Don't worry about bein depressed, it's just cause you're an artist. You probably also have hormones going on and sh!t like that.

Time marches on regardless, on that note, I feel pretty prepared for my morning exam tomorrow, and plan to study at lunchtime for my afternoon one. Then it's play soldier for two hours, rehearse for leading thursday morning's PT sesh, and write up some press.

haha, some kids have pocket planners to keep track of their stuff, and I have the Alcatraz regional message board.

I need to direct more of my citizens to begin Basket Weaving. What a travesty! Last in the region.

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

Basket weaving is a deceiving metric. I find the health of a nation's pizza delivery sector to be a much tighter bellwether of its general economic state.

Post by Ishkabeebee suppressed by Ospokaip.

Ishkabeebee

Ah, good, I'm relieved. I do believe my socialist policies have caused a surge of pizza deliveries. So clearly despite my high tax rate, my economy is booming. Clearly.

You have 4 days to have sex at least 50 times, or just over 12 times a day, which is once every 2 hours WITHOUT sleep. You could save a little time by having a six-some at the five corners.

Date in Indiana canceled on me. Date in Iowa was too repulsive to seal the deal on. Date in Illinois went really well but she wants to take it slow ;) I might see her again next weekend.

So my mission was kind of a failure from the start. I need more advance planning time--I don't think my poor car would have ever made it to Alaska.

Go Irish, beat trojans

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

Well the beat trojans thing didn't work out. I care more about beating Navy though anyway.

I fukkin hate when students here try to claim we shouldn't cheer against Navy. That is a bunch of bull. I would consider it a victory if Manti Te'o literally ripped the heads off of three or four midshipmen. I say that as a member of the armed forces. I feel the same way (with slightly less vehemence) when we match up against West Point. Yes, we have military commitments post-graduation, but we need to win the goddam football game. Ugh.

I just watched The Hurt Locker and it makes me want to destroy things. It's a shame I"m such a poor soldier. Movies do that to me, it's strange. If I watch a rock n roll movie, the credits will roll and I"ll think "now I definitely want to be a rockstar." But I'm such a poor musician. I wish they made movies about something I was good at. Would probably get canned in pre-prod though

Well the protagonist of Hurt Locker's job was to stop things from exploding. So...you wanna be a terrorist?

Post by Maniaca suppressed by Ospokaip.

Maniaca

woah woah woah I can't say that or I'll fail my security clearance background check

"Explosive Ordnance Disposal" (EOD) simply disposes of explosive ordnance--in some instances this involves defusing, in others it involves clearing and cordoning the area and detonating. This was the plan in the opening scene, and was in progress in the scene where SFC James forgets his gloves on the det site and Sanborn contemplates blowing him up.

wasn't exactly my point though, smartass ;) just the entire plot and the violence and intensity and the closing scene with the song and percussion got my testosterone into a fury at 2 AM and I wanted to pop my helmet on, draw an M4 and neutralize threats in Northern Indiana.

forgot you could do bb code in regional message board postings now.

I am developing a growing sympathy with animal liberationists lately, and I guess most people consider them terrorists, so you might actually be onto something
