Welcome to this week’s ALL-WEEKEND OPEN THREAD DANCE PARTY, BALLET SHOPPING EDITION! Talk about whatever you want, post links, etc.
Actually, by special request, there are two topics that are not allowed in this thread: False rape accusations and Andrea Dworkin. All comments referencing either (or both) will be deleted. Party hard!
ELIZABETH THEY ARE ADORABLE LITTLE MUTANTS
IT IS LIKE LIVING WITH LITTLE PANTLESS ALIENS WHO ALWAYS WANT TO BE FED AND WIPE THEIR EYE BUGGERS ON YOU
ALSO THERE IS THIS TO CONSIDER
I liked Dragon Age 2. While it did not quite have the depth of Dragon Age Origins, the greater degree of flexibility made it more rewarding on repeat plays than Origins. I have heard that the PC version of DA2 had a lot of technical problems and that the battle system did not work as well for PC gamers, but as a PS3 person, I liked the battle system for DA2 better than the one for DAO. Still, even the console version could have used some technical work. I cut my teeth on Japanese games, and those things are not a fraction as glitchy as American games, but DA2 gets a special award for hilarious glitching (though the autosave was effective enough to make this less of a bother than it can be in some games).
JOHNNY PEZ
PUGS DO NOT NEED TO BE IMMOBILIZED
THEY’RE ONLY AWAKE TEN MINUTES A DAY AT MOST
Pecunium – ugh, no kidding. That is something I DO NOT MISS about EPA. And I don’t have any triggers on it – I just find it supremely annoying.
It’s not gunfire. the worst of it was actually the formal fireworks. Mortars sound like mortars, and when I can’t see the shells, it sounds… well it sounds like a not so distant firefight (the various non-official fireworks) with artillery support.
Makes me a bit nervous.
Re: Borderlands:
Steam (store,steampowered.com) is having their awesome biannual sale right now. The sales change from day to day (changing at 9 am PST), and I’ve seen Borderlands up for sale at a discount. If you’re primarily a PC gamer, the Steam sale is definitely worth checking out.
Re: DA2
Omg, I was so pissed! I was one of the people who had to wait for the patch because there was a savegame issue right out of the fucking gate for my computer. It sucked so hard. But having played both DA:O and DA2 on the PC, I have to say I really liked DA:O better. They’re both good games, but I liked the epic feel of DA:O more than I like the ‘refugee becomes awesome’ part of DA2. That being said, I really think the Dragon Age setting is really awesome, and I’d probably play any game set in Thedas (up to and including the tabletop game).
Kk, back from Pride and meeting up w/ Spearhafoc and Kristin, Mistress of Hounds :3 Was fun! Pride was a little boring tho : I showed them my sekrit spot for watching Pride (a bottleneck where the marchers and floats turn out of the park where they organize.. not a lot of ppl are there , there’s steps to stand up on and everything stops there waiting… xD I knew it from being in Pride before xD ) but we were kinda watching the 2nd half of it and the floats were v corporate and watered down so : But we had fun! (or *I* had fun neways xD) and some guy on a bike called us freaks xD Which is weird cuz we were dressed v normally xD and I didn’t have wings on or nething! xD
Neways, I will put up pix when I dun feel so tired xD
I also found out bad news : I saw the guy I liked w/ a guy : (w/ w/) so,.. blah 🙁 darn!
oh well xD That’s my luck… go figure >_>;; It does explain a few things tho (he mentioned having a g/f in the past, so I mean that he’s taken, not gay xD)
I feel disappointed and kinda ridic now, having put myself out there.. he prolly thought I was annoying :
rawr!
On the other hand, it was a fun day w/ Kristin and Spearhafoc :] and me and Spear hung out after b/c Kristin was tired and had to leave : but I had a lot of fun hanging out w/ Spear.. he is v cool :3 (so is Kristin! 😀 )
that is all
Fresh from a love-in with 5 of my favorite people, a BBQ, and a Game of Thrones marathon, I’d like to use the last half hour of the weekend to say that Peter Dinklage is fucking hot. That is all.
“and some guy on a bike called us freaks xD”
He probably could tell you were from manboobz …
It sounds lots of fun! I’m sorry about the guy. It might not be what it looked like! Or, y’know, it might be, but someone absolutely perfect for you will come along, Ami. You’re the best. You deserve the best.
True. Unfortunately, I’m already married.
Man, Johnny Pez. Did I just hear the sound of a million manboobz hearts breaking?
No, never mind. Feminists don’t have hearts. My mistake!
Now I’m trying to think of whether Peter Dinklage or a small talking dog is the better match. Decisions, decisions!
It’s a cold, hard world, Bee.
And you’d probably have better luck keeping Dinklage off the furniture.
MRAL, I’m glad you’re going to therapy. Good luck, and I wish you well.
Johnny being married warms the cockles of my shriveled (and evil) heart. If he’s married I have more of a chance.
🙂
Well you have more of a chance…. take your best shot…
@MRAL: I am really happy for you! That’s fantastic! I hope things keep getting better for you! =D
Just for the record, I want it established that *I* am clearly the best match for Ami. I mean, I, uh, am really cool! And would valiantly fight trolls for her! And… um… I’m not married or getting married! I mean, Pecunium did just get engaged! He is probably too busy to take proper care of our feminist leader.
I… don’t remember writing that last night xD
I was SOOO out of it… this is one of those days where I desperately try to remember everywhere I posted something last night and make sure I didn’t say something terrible xD
I didn’t mean with any one person.
Sarah: I’ve been engaged since November.
I was wondering why a weekend thread was so sort.
*short
Just using this here open thread to test something. Don’t mind me!
