TET: Now With Mantis Shrimp!

[Hladgos]

I'm waiting for Alien: Isolation to come out

Your faith must be astounding if you can trust the Alien games anymore.

I've never played any of em, so I've got a clean slate, and in watching the trailers and looking at screenshots, all I need is that fucking delicious looking lo-fi sci fi they've got going. It looks like it'll be a cool game, no blasting aliens to bits, just one alien, like the movie, so hopefully they don't fuck up.

[Meritocratic States]

Explain, I'm too lazy to google.

It suddenly started to hail.

Soooo.... It's not the NCAA tournaments?

Oh, tornado. Got it.

[Hladgos]

It suddenly started to hail.

You're welcome. You get to borrow Kansas' bipolar weather disorder.

[Katyuscha]

Ah, I see. The only game in that genre that I still play is L4D, though you can hardly even call it a survival horror game, anymore.

I'm waiting for Alien: Isolation to come out

Never heard of it, until now. Looks like it may be fun.

For the love of god, don't do it.
The last game they made had such horrible AI they didn't even recognize they were holding a badass mini gun and stood in front of areas you needed to get through.

Also giant rolling donuts

Uh...no. Texas has always been like this.

Survival horror an' all, but it looks like they're trying to get the feeling of the first movie back in there.

Meh, worth a chance. It cant be as bad as colonial marines.

.. So why are you concerned about the hail?

We had Nerd-sized piece of snow-rain crap fall up here today. That was fun.

I should mention that I mean the candy, not the person-type nerd.

[Mavorpen]

Who said I was?

Who said I was?

You were just commenting on it. I never comment on the hail here.. except when it smacked me in the head that once and I blacked out..

...And?

[Meritocratic States]

Been seeing all these people play around with Novation Launchpads in YouTube... well damn.

This is making me want to get one and learn how to use it.

[Katyuscha]

T'way with it.

[The High Tatras]

I am looking for a non-functioning pistol of a rather specific type, which I will wear on my belt while cosplaying my favorite of my recurring RP characters.

It is called a "ruchnitsa", and it has an iron barrel nestled into a channel cut in a wooden stick, which also serves as a handle. There are often decorative metal plates on the sides of the wooden handle, sometimes with elaborate filagree and niello designs.

I am thinking it would probably be easier to purchase various components and assemble my own custom fake pistol rather than attempt to find exactly what I am looking for. Actually, probably any wheel lock or snaphaunce lock pistol that is highly decorated would work okay, although it would not be as satisfying. I have no idea why I am bringing this up here.

[Destrovia]

Didn't like it?

I like it.

Not really a fan of survival-horror games though.

I remember walking down the hallway with the electrical cords flailing around and whatnot. I was crying, covering my eyes, screaming at every moving shadow, and I jumped out of my chair into a table when a necromorph came to life.

My girlfriend laughed the whole time she played the game. Guess I don't wear the big kid pants in the relationship. ;~;

Jenson just proposed letting the Lizard people take over the world again.

Though I don't blame him, people trying to take our jobs, and its the Rich White Americans >:|

I am bored out of my mind right now (as usual when I post in TET).

[Ordenburg]

That was one of the best days of chess club ever, I feel so much better now. I guess it's not doing all the little things that was killing me. Now I just need to track one last person down.

Well time to kick back, relax and watch a movie.

Hey, you are going to a chess club? You must be a big fun of chess.

Huh? I don't understand your second sentence. But I do go to chess club, play a few rounds casually, balance some of the chess pieces in way that seem to break the universe and just hangout as well. I usually stay for a goo three hours.

[Hladgos]

A hopeless romantic is one who loves someone who will never love them back. I had to correct my girlfriend that I'm a hopeful romantic, unless of course she's hiding something from me..

I just realized someone posted porn in a thread in the past and I think I forgot to report him....

:Shrug: Its gone now most likely, or at least really....really....really hard to find.

[The High Tatras]

On a more serious note, I feel that I am not doing enough to put my political opinions into action. I have never found a candidate with views anywhere close to mine, and get little satisfaction from voting in elections. I have considered the possibility of a career in politics, but I am quickly discouraged when I realize that being a professional politician is about who you know rather than what you know.

There must be some other avenue to political influence that doesn't require people skills that I do not have and doesn't involve compromising my values, but I am not sure what that avenue would be.

BTW, I am a democratic socialist and also a devout Christian of no specific denomination.
