Another great technical accomplishment. Smug mode.

At this rate I'll be able to launch my own company where 70% of the work is managed by my own coding.

Monopoly. The only game your partner can ask you to play online where "I don't think our relationship can handle that" is an acceptable answer.

I aim for trains, utilities, green and purple. I'll buy red and yellow, but I avoid blue and brown.

Heh, we were discussing that which led to Dami asking for a match. I'm surprised Danny doesn't have a girlfriend, he's so sweet.

Being rational and able to see both sides of the fence has its points.

Green is part b, of my plan. The oranges are also useful for boxing out a corner.

He's single? Good god, why? Physically he's not my type, but even I have a bit of a soft spot for him.

Oh that's just my plan. I rarely pull it off - I'm a bit shite at board games.

He seriously needs a bloody haircut at this point, of course.

Monopoly is half chance, half strategy. That's what makes it fun. Sometimes a bad roll can entirely turn the tide of a game.

Oh, a bit of grooming wouldn't go amiss, I agree. He strikes me as a little too mild-mannered to be really putting himself out there to date. I could be wrong, but that's the impression I get. I can't believe he's not getting any at all, though. Unless he's not into groupies.

Excellent. I really need to get this PC rebuilt so I can get back on steam. Right. This weekend. This PC is going to be pulled apart and strewn across the floor.
