seriously Pods, if you actually like and respect neighbor girl, nut up and tell her that you like her but are not very much NOT looking for a relationship. If she thinks that is cool and fine, then you owe her nothing after that in terms of worrying about how she sees you two.
If she says that she wants to be more, sorry brah, but it seems like you got girls coming out of the woodwork so I wouldn't worry.
yeah, I know. HOPEFULLY she will be all "i really like you, but I'd also be cool being casual."
Ugh it's gonna be tough because the sex is STUPENDOUS
Plus I just got her an awesome deal on a synth I want to play
Guys, did you all know that J.K. Rowling won the Hugo/Nebula award over George R.R. Martin's a storm of swords (user voted, obv) and then didn't accept the award because her "books are not fantasy".
I can think of a word to describe her!
I can find absolutely zero evidence for this.

When the main characters in your books are a bunch of WIZARDS I think you need to have a lot of gaul to tell someone they aren't fantasy.
"So this is my new book about robots flying around on futuristic spaceships but please don't confuse that with sci-fi"
uh well a lot of science fiction authors and critics hate the term "sci-fi" since it was originally used as a derogatory term for bad, pulp science fiction.
It would be cool if there were a game we could all play and talk on vent at the same time and skippy could feed like the boss he is.
Why that sounds like League of Legends. Let us assemble in the Legendmobile!

I heard we were being racist to Danes and came as fast I could. Many of my compatriots could use a dose of their own medicine. Seriously, my government and the far right-wingers supporting them are terrible.
That aside, there are actually quite a lot of Danes on the forums, I can remember more Danish forummers than Norwegian.
Also, my deepest sympathies to you Abdh. Did you know any of the victims? I seem to recall you having something to do with Arbejderpartiet.

I think "speculative fiction" is the preferred genre name for the cranky sci-fi authors who express disdain for "sci-fi".
And by "cranky sci-fi authors" I mean "Harlan Ellison".
my dad told a story at my confirmation when he was giving a speech
it was about when I was maybe seven I think
he'd been at this geological trip thing with Shell and he'd brought back this fingernail sized golden lump. It was surprisingly heavy, and really beautiful.
he asked me "Do you know what this is?"
"That's svovelkis, or pyrite. It's called fool's gold because it looks like it, but it's much harder (fingernail scrape) and it forms these cubic crystals you see here"
I was like, dang, I was a nerdy kid

The only thing I can find about this Rowling/Hugo award thing is that she didn't accept the award or send anyone to accept it and never sent a formal thank you to the awards.
Then later she won an award and made some kind of off-hand comment about how she had never won an award for adult authors.
Bah, hearing Winky talk about Dead Space 2 made me really want to play it, but I'd wanna beat the first one first, but apparently I lent my copy to a friend and never got it back.
I bet I could find it real cheap these days though.

I don't know anyone who got killed.
I think. It's not 100% on everyone but it's getting p sure.
But yeah, I was a member of AUF and I've been to Utøya before. Which is a part of why this hit so hard because I could imagine it so well.
And you really could not find a larger concentration of good, bright people who want to do good anywhere in this world.
He had boot camp but he got rid of it because he is being a stupid butt and thinks that he can resist playing LoL with me even though each game with my wondrous presence is like touching the stars forever and ever and ever
it's so beautiful

I was reading through a book of essays from Damon Knight, and he was an old, old hand at Science Fiction. Old enough to remember meeting a very young Harlan Ellison. Who was an asshole then.

I googled "rowling hugo reject" and got nothing, so I don't think it happened.

Yeah I mean its documented that she wasn't there and that she sent no one to accept it.
I'd imagine that all of the ifs ands ad buts are mad GRRM fans.

@abdhyious well, that's something, at least. But still so terrible. I hope this will at least be interpreted as part of a larger picture of right-wing extremism and make people take that threat seriously, instead of wasting resources harassing Scandinavia's peaceful Muslims and taking "terror" as a synonym for Islamism.

I just read an article that was all "yeah, ok, this was bad by a right-wing extremist, now let's talk about how multiculturalism is bad!"

Hell yes.
I'd say hang with her tonight have "the talk".
Then you are free to see any amount of rehearsal gals you want without having to worry about it.

Borges is definitely spinning in his grave.
And suddenly Rowling has gone from someone I didn't really care about to someone I kind of dislike in a vague sort of way.

You spoiled my joke with facts.
And today Inquisitor once again learns the lesson to never ever trust people on the interbutts.

Realize: the head on this mini is smaller than your pinky nail.
I can't get enough of Gabe's story about him.

Probably won't do that tonight though. We'll grab dinner or something later on in the week and I'll bring it up then.

skippy came back down to earth
he doin' man's work now
It's Forgeworld.
hmmmmm
like, man, it's just common old rock
gråstein
but it's only when you get to places with sedimentary rock types making up the land that you realize that granite is p cool after all
it's hard as balls
it doesn't chip and become jagged, it becomes smooth instead (seriously, stone beaches in the mediterranean, go suck my cock, you suck.)
and if you actually look at it close it's damn pretty
He's playing HoN now? That silly goose!
Ah, I should have guessed. Forgeworld makes me the most amazing stuff. Costs $Texas, but, you know, is actually worth it.
Yeah I mean its documented that she wasn't there and that she sent no one to accept it.
