Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

The word that "[chat]" replaces in the thread title is "fuck" right?

I'm a published writer and have a very unique and interesting writing style. I'm also sharp and witty. My profile is well-written and hilarious. My messages are likewise brilliant. And I've been doing this stuff for...four or five years. I know what "works" in terms of good internet dating writing. "Works" in the sense of leading to a "date" with a human female.
There are rules to war. Sometimes those rules are goofy.
There's no living with a killing. There's no goin' back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand... a brand sticks. There's no goin' back. Now you run on home to your mother and tell her... tell her everything's alright. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.

Oh Jacob, I meant to ask you, have you read any of Brandon Sanderson's work? I just finished the Mistborn trilogy and I enjoyed it tremendously.

Example.
I was thinking specifically of the Hague Convention and it's covering of bullet design. Hollow point rounds aren't allowed to be used in war because it was viewed as creating an excessively damaging wound because the bullet flattens. On the other hand Mortars are perfectly okay even though they are much more lethal, much more likely to maim and generally create really horrific wounds.

I have to say, I don't really find "twerking" all that attractive, and the super fast version where the butt cheeks get all jiggly is decidedly un-sexy. It completely mystifies me how people could be into that.

nah, I have not read a whole lot of fantasy and I tend to be out of step with most fans when I do - I couldn't stand the first Wheel of Time and the first Malazan books, for instance
Hello! Santa brought me a new ereader and hopefully a new TV (when the cheque comes through).
How was your xmas and new year?
good except my new year's vacation involved everyone in my familiy getting sick except me (and my 90 yo grandma thankfully also avoided it) so it was pretty lowkey
Once upon a time I had plans to move back to Washington state but now there are dogs.
I don't know how I could split them up, and I certainly couldn't leave Rex behind, nor could I take all three of them with me.
Maybe if you took the first two dogs on the raft, then left the first one on the far shore and
Any way it played out would either leave me without dogs, leave my mom without dogs, or split the dogs up.
It's an impasse that is, unfortunately, keeping me in Alabama for the foreseeable future.
Plus my mom can't walk Rex anymore since she fell and broke her pelvis. She's too unsteady, and he's too rambunctious. I'd play hell trying to find a place to live in Seattle that would let me have a german shepherd.

I found the the Mistborn books kind of meh. I know a lot of people really like them, but I didn't find them particularly enjoyable to read. They're a bit fluffy, IMO.

You need to read the Garrett Files. A fantasy nod to the Nero Wolfe books. By the guy who did the Black Company series. It's got Elves and dames.

I shall be forever grateful to Thom for introducing me to the Garrett Files books.

Game over.
An acceptable interpretation, I suppose

I can't quite wrap my head around the styles of dancing these days, top tier twerking like in that one
or this song's display of blue-chip daggering

I've had that happen before. When I saw it I thought it meant I was banned.

They are putrid. I actually used them as an object example in a research paper I wrote about the decline of female action heroes in film.
