Terry Pratchett unveiled street signs on a new housing estate in Wincanton, Somerset, which by popular local vote had been named for streets in his Discworld city of Ankh-Morpork: Treacle Mine Road and Peach Pie Street. 'Personally I'd pay good money to live somewhere called Treacle Mine Road.'

I'll refer you to my doctor:

Making stupid one-liners all over the forums and showing incredible agility in dodging each and every single counter-claim to his stupidity.

Nice. That is like the area of Australia named after places from LotR.

Fuck yes.

And with that piece of brilliant news, I'm off to bed. G'night, [chat].

Also why is the default font on Debian unreadable? How do I change it?

For the record, creamy milk drinks like white russians are disgusting, whereas citrusy mixed drinks like the ones ELM posted are at least tolerable.

No wonder you have anxiety issues.

You're insane and dumb.

MrMister

Downside of living in the unofficial gay dorm: when you have a progressive party (where you move from room to room, each room having a drink for you to taste), eight of nine rooms have a sweet fruity pink drink. One room each progressive should just be mandated to make gin and tonics, so the real boozers can get down to business wiithout all that bullshit sugar candy.

He only seems mildly disturbed to me.

Because margaritas are great! Not average.

Yay, alcohol!

Throw a lime in it.

Limeys.

There's a drink I can pour down most of the night.

EDIT: When else would we talk about alcohol? It's 7:19 AM, time to get hammered and talk about chatter genitalia, etc.

I loved white Russians when I first started drinking. Much like I loved Midori sours, Smirnoff Ices, and other bitch drinks. But time changes these things, and now I can't stand the sweetness.

You're comparing white russians to Smirnoff Ices?

Blended or on the rocks?

GAAAAH WTF.

They both remind me of being an underclassman.

Man, The Darkness is such a disturbing game. Not scary, just... disturbing. But good.

Funny. One reminds me of when I used to tour the gay/lesbian bars around here and the other reminds me of casinos.

RonaldoTheGypsy

White Russians remind me of the dude, and Smirnoff Ices remind me of the line from the movie Beerfest.

After all this he might need to go to a specialist.

Spoiler:

It's 7:25am, and I went there.

Lunch time! Huzzah!

(or, at least, it's 12.30pm and I'm hungry, so I am declaring it to be lunchtime).

Heh, Mike Patton voiced The Darkness in the game. No wonder...

Man I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO not GISsing that. I am cowardly and weak.

ALSO: Man, I am a librarian. Curse you all having librarian thread without me! Much like myself, it appears to have not a lot of library themed activity. Perfection!

WHERAS: Booze is awesome. Mostly atm I am drinking Magners from the bottle like an uncouth swine, and also, vodka and coke. I pretty much only drink while raiding on WOW. Raiders, I'm talking wipenights, you know how it is. I drink to ease the pain of watching tards die in fires.

Last night I convinced a first grader (can't remember her age, but I think it was six) that I was a vampire and that I turned her mom into a vampire as well. I wonder if she had nightmares. I'm going to have some fucked up kids when I pull shit like this all the time on them.

Ryadic makes the new thread.

As might have just become apparent, we're thinking about trying something different for this year's E3 strips. And also, it's kind of hard to like earnest young Ann, who herself seems to like The Merch. But that's not outside the statistical tolerance of her demographic.

I've been thinking that referring to Spokane as the ruptured asshole of America and indeed the world has not taken something critical into account. It is cheap to live there, and if you never have then you don't even know what kind of expensivity threshold I'm talking about here. Let me give you a good example.

Real Life Comics, which I won't link because you probably already know about it anyway and his server doesn't need the hassle, is moving up to Seattle because the rent is better than it is in Sacramento. Um, that's one way of looking at it. I guess it depends on where he's going to live up here, but the idea that you come here to live simply makes my mind hurt. You know where you need to go? I mean, if you're planning on moving away from everyone you know anyhow?

Spokane.

Festering pit, I know. The people there live inside the Earth's own bleeding hemorrhoids. But here's the deal: I lived in an area called Hillyard, which is almost literally "on the other side of the tracks," and I had a perfectly livable room for 280 dollars a month. Broadband is fairly plentiful, and there is a massive chunk of downtown where you can access the Internets - any one you like - on the free.

We aren't strangers to desperation. Penny Arcade has been our "job" for a long time now, but the kind of money it was bringing in was only viable in a place like Spokane. It just occurred to me yesterday that if you are physically untethered to a location, and you want nothing more than to survive according to the whim of your creative output, and what you like to do anyway is play WoW or whatever in your spare time, then what the fuck difference does it make where you store, temporarily, your barely animated husk?

Oh, and something else, motherfucker! Your bongos are looking super ratty. Maybe your other friends are more diplomatic about it, but I'll be Goddamned if I'll put my palms to a bongo that ill-used and decrepit. If you want me over there again you need to invest in some covers for that shit, on the real:





I can't even look at your greasy bongos anymore, man. New rule: put some fucking covers on.

(CW)TB out.
