Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

First day of my first real job tomorrow. Place your bets on what is going to kill me first: waking up early, having a panic attack, direct sunlight, meeting real people, having a second panic attack, heat, actually burning a calorie doing something productive, having a third panic attack, my arms fa...

This is going to become Microsoft's "real time weapon change", isn't it?

More than half of the links are dead or link to deleted accounts/pictures so it's not very fun to read. And with Ame no Akai and Clyve's posts deleted, it often makes no sense at all. Such a shame.

Re: Things that piss you off

Why does my father bother asking me for my opinion when he disregards it every time? When he has problems with his computer, he asks me to look at it, then tells me he's going to ask someone who knows more than I. Same with the TV that's been slowly dying for months. When the display started to be a...

Re: General Game Gabbin'

It was always clear that an upcoming expansion would raise the level cap by 10 levels, so people have no reason to act that way, since they decided to grind for that raid-tier stuff while knowing it would be obsolete soon.

Re: General Game Gabbin'

I've never understood why so many people get up in arms when this one mmorpg I play announces the next expansion is going to raise the level cap. Like, some people sound personally offended that the developers dare add content after they personally felt their characters were complete. Does this happ...

How is it different from food in the prairies? Except for poutine and tourtière du lac St-Jean, I can't think of anything unique to Quebec (granted, I don't really know Canadian food)

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

Fun fact: In Quebec, they needlessly translate things. That's why stop signs in France say 'stop' and ones in Quebec say 'arret'. This is also true for TV show and movie titles, where Quebec translates them and France doesn't bother. Actually, France sometimes changes the names of movies, but doesn...

Also, getting anywhere close in Russia is hard as balls. It would help if the language was decipherable at all, but nope. Cyrillic is easy to decipher if you've ever used Greek letters. Except for some characters that come from Hebrew, it's just modified Greek. Also I'm not sure how road signs look...

This little guy is currently hiding in a tree next to a window. He sees his own reflection in the window, flies upward while trying to peck it, then goes back into hiding. He's been doing that for a few hours now.

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for

Organic chemistry can be very fun. It's kind of like riddles, charades and sudoku mixed together. They give you a starter molecule and ask for a resulting one (and you're either allowed to use any other molecule, only inorganic ones, or none). You have to build it piece by piece using inherent prope...
