She has a fairly large tattoo of this on her thigh,
I couldnt take anyone trying to seduce me with that seriously.
There was something amusing about the priest parting the sheep.
I thought the Mural Fight one was quite evocative though.
I have literally not seen you ever, but more figuratively I have not spoken with you in a while. How goes the studies?
So come the fall the real studies start. In Bergen! In my own apartment!
I am so excited for that!
The standard IBA one was shit but I'm not gonna give up
When gamer memes are used as way of connecting with people who are shy, fearful, or otherwise aversion to human connection, then the result is a net benefit.
When gamer memes are used as a way of seperating people who understand the memes from those who do not; as if the former are somehow more intelligent or better than the latter, then the result is a net deficit.
It is unfortunate that memes and in-jokes are used as ways of driving wedges between people.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
how about
they're bad and unfunny
that is the lenght and breadth of it
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
technically no (Høgskolen i Bergen, not Universitetet i Bergen) but yes.
howabout I do suck
it's not because it's a gamer meme it's because I'M SICK OF HEARING ABOUT IT
i feel the same way about 'working hard... or hardly working?' 'there's no price being scanned? DOES THAT MEAN IT'S FREE?" 'gingers don't have souls'
the second one there is a great way to increase the risk of being brained with the register
Shopkeepers going, 'What can I do you for?'
bad jokes are bad because they are bad jokes, further reason to dislike them isn't needed
There was like one little cake reference, blink and you miss it, and then they moved on.
It made me feel pretty good
You can't invalidate those feelings, Cass
I won't let you take that away from me
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
space
space
so much space
that's a keeper
What did you finally decide on studying?
Engineering something right?
Ok, that's reasonable.
It can be annoying to encounter the type of person that uses them as a sense of humour subsitute, though, and that isn't uniquely a gamer/anti-gamer thing. It goes for people, for example, whose entire repertoire of jokes are Simpsons quotes as well.
i can't disturb her she's so cute!!!
Great! Congrats!
he is p good you guys
he is very very much a hipster but he can do music
also the place managed to make me and the other friend who went feel old
and we're 20 and 21 respectively
it might have been because we like, expected there to be a bar and we'd enjoy a couple beers, and when we get there, one girl is drinking from her bottle in a bag (not sure if there's a point to doing that here) and another walked around with a bottle of vodka with a drinking straw and all of them were either younger than us or wierder than us or both of the above
a couple of his songs made me cringe at some points
but mostly it was p good
and he had one I really liked which I'm trying to find now and I can't which is annoying
