At this point, I'm comfortable enough to say that she'd have to prove herself to be a very, very unattractive man. ;)
Allen: I'm not going to spend my hard-earned money on something so trivial. I've got bigger plans than that right now, (see the first page) and saving up money is hard enough on even the new minimum wage out here. You'll understand someday when you have a job of your own. :)

Neither of us see bluray, HD-anything, or the PS3 as worthwhile investments -- we're happy with SDTV, we don't feeling like paying $400-$1550+ out of our asses for something that we feel is already quite sufficient! :) I used to think the same thing, but after playing MGS4 on a HD tv in full DD 5.1 ex, I would have to say I am not willing to go back. Old stuff is better on a SD tv for sure, but to fully enjoy this generation, you need to go the HD route. Its so great, and there really is a huge ass difference. After picking up all the extra tech gear, I've really been enjoying this console generation. If you go back to the old topic we had on this generation, you will find my dismay, and lack of interest. This is all changed now!! |

Wow, I must be tired.  If I didn't know better, I'd say that was Namco-Bandai Engrish. It'd probably have made my playthroughs of GTA: San Andreas easier -- the HUD was annoyingly tiny, I couldn't make out how many bullets I had, and the blue icons on the radar were a pain in the ass to see. Needless to say, I turned off most HUD options so that I could plainly see what I was doing. I'm still missing oysters, horseshoes, pictures and graffiti. I already painted the world green poppin gangstas on the hillside.  |

If that's the case, though, then you shouldn't play any Xbox 360 or PS3 games on an SDTV, since that's not the original, intended look for their games.  Forgive me for not being specific enough. I prefer to play the original consoles on the original TV sets that I've used to play them on. It's a bond for me, really. |

I like it both. I wouldn't ever wanna see an NES hooked up to an HD Tv. That'd look UGLAY.
Then again, MGS4 HD?! Boorah.

Man, this is the second day of these messages. She's still pure awesome. It's amazing how much we've learned about eachother in such a short amount of time. She's already gotten to know my flaws, and knows how to handle them accordingly. *stares at the fishing rod* So what's the catch? She's too amazing, there has to be something!! XD Where's the snow in hell, where's the flying pigs, how come I'm not digesting my hat?! I'm enjoying all aspects of this. Seriously. I'm cautious, but I'm enjoying this. I feel like I'm being spun like a top, sitting in the middle of a merry-go-round and enjoying every second of it. Wow, I'm getting dizzy!! Man, where's the epic fail, where's the crash landing, the train wreck, where?! Two days, man, two friggin days. I'm enjoying this way too much. I could do this for an innumerable amount of time. I mean... wow. :B |

So. Here's the deal. 12 this morning? Like, 12 midnight last night? I had my 6th cigarette of yesterday. Yep, only 6 cigarettes yesterday. I cut waaaay back. >.> Like, a cigarette every 2-3 hours.
It's 1:05pm. It's been roughly 13 hours. THIRTEEN HOURS! >.>"
I coooould smoke. I mean, there are cigarettes here. >.>
But... I wanna find my hairtie first. And distract myself with music. And eat apples. There's soooo many better things... so many... things...
I wanna cheat, and have like... a cigarette here, and then one for when I go on break at work today, and... and after work, the after-work cigarette is always satisfying... ;_;
Me. Smoke. NAO!!! >_>"
Or distract myself... XD
Reasons: Health. Brother. Niece. Family. Myself. Cold of winter. I don't believe in suicide at any pace, even as slow as smoking is.
I have reasons. Good reasons. I have to try!

I had three cigarettes today. I almost killed my coworkers tonight, and I don't know whether or not it was because I was having a nic-fit, or if the newbie who was bossing me around was being a hardcore biiish. XD
If ignorance is bliss, can't bliss be ignorance? So can't cigar smoking be ignorance? XD

ERRRRRRRRRRRGh. The only reason the government even allows the selling of a damn stupid legal drug like cigarettes is cuz it brings in money. And it keeps doctors employed and pharmaceutical companies open too.
I wish I could go back in time and bitchslap the bastard(s) that thought up commercializing the stuff.

You know, you don't have to buy it if you don't want them...... just because the Government says its ok, doesn't mean you have to indulge.

XD So today anyway, I don't think I have cigs. X)
I can't believe how boozed I got. XD My mouth is still numb. XD

But before cigarettes there were pipes and hookahs (sheesha?) and snuff boxes! :O More stinky and unhealthy stuff! (well, ok, snuff boxes didn't stink) But.... even putting my eternal hate for cigarettes aside, they look so damned measly. So... ungraceful! >__>' Cigarette smokers standing by, puffing away on a silly looking scrap of paper.... meh. (I doubt any smoker here really cares about such things though! ;D) |

You're right! All I care about when I smoke, is keeping myself in an emotional Zen. XD I cannot achieve inner peace, without some nicotine to keep me from snapping someone's neck. At work, I almost did. >.> Because... I felt like someone was being an asshole. If I had a cigarette, I would've seen that she had my best interests at heart. Really cool person, but a little too stern for my non-smoker self.
// I felt that alot of what she said was underhanded. But she was re-training me and *everyone else* so I mean, you know, I couldn't take that shit to heart.

If I didn't know better, I'd say that was Namco-Bandai Engrish.
