The transition team has drafted a new document of Guiding Principles and New Rules for our community. These rules will go into effect on November 25. 2024.
@Lost Salient You had better tell me next time you're in Abilene too! ...Oh, wait. Never mind.
You're super rad but I mean business with that drinking competition. I fully expect to be under that table.
Just for the record, my tolerance is not really very high! I was completely bombed on Friday and I beliiiieve over the course of like six hours I had um. Two shots, two Lone Stars, and two small margaritas.

It doesn't matter now, you have a reputation.
And I want a reputation too. As the lightweight who can't hold his liquor to the point of embarrassment.
Stilts is yet again another person that I used to talk with more but haven't in a while.
I still read the superhero and movie threads, but I haven't posted in them much in the past year or so. I was trying to cut down on expenses to pay for dental shit.
But I just resubbed to Netflix and have been meaning to catch up on Arrow and Flash, so maybe I will post about that in the superhero thread.

I have a drinking reputation
But I think it is mostly unearned, at this point
I used to have a very high tolerance for alcohol, but that's decreased a bunch since college

i have zero reputation and am thus constantly beset by amnish guards

Although I have that reputation around people that I've met post college too
I honestly have no idea why people think I'm so good at drinking
I guess I drink a lot of really powerful drinks
I just also only drink like two of them most nights

Lost Salientblink twiceif you'd like me to mercy kill youRegistered Userregular
I'm somewhat concerned about what my reputation is, honestly!
I really am not a heavy drinker generally speaking, and if you called me party-hardy to my friends in real life they would laugh in your face.
I just get really excited to hang out with people on special occasions, and then when I DO actually let myself get really really drunk, it's a 50/50 shot between "Well now I'm going to bed," and "Is she climbing that? WHERE DID SHE GO?"

man now I wanna hit up PAX Souf one of these years but it's so close to MAGFest (which I'm planning on spending a week at next year, because I'll probably be helping set up and tear down before the four-day con itself)

i like my forum name and am not like embarrassed of it or anything, but introducing myself as it is semi-excruciating for me
Honestly the only thing I'd be worried about is someone doesn't know who I am by name and I have to then describe my avatar
Well ok for me thats fine
but I'm imagining like "ok I'm the guy with a close up picture of a kitties face"
i think this would be the point where i either pull out my phone and tell them to hold on while i find pictures of my cat OR just bail entirely like "forget it my name is mitchell we both use the internet let's start there"

Basically I am just still deeply concerned that everyone I hung out with at South is convinced I'm some sort of psycho alcoholic.

and i mean if a real-life situation ever affords me the opportunity to quote ocelot at the end of MGS3 maybe i should just take it

It's just some friendly ribbing, really!
I'm pretty much exactly the same way, a few drinks here and there but when I hang out with people I'm excited to see I typically drink a lot more.

@FAQ – Smelly smelly smelly. I feel like we would have tons of fun if we hung out in person some day. I promise I would not actually call you smelly (probably). If I come to your home country will we hang? LIE TO ME.
who knows sali, who knows
i'd like to though. see how tough this liver of yours is
@Solar is someone in the forums that I like a lot and always like hearing his perspective on stuff.
@Wimble is way way way way way cool and funny and smart and swoon
@Poorochondriac always has good stuff to say about tv and movies and he's in that hollywood scene, if I see that he's talking about something I always take the time to read the conversation because it is always useful to read. Although he writes down ain't a lot and i will tell you pooro that is always a pet peeve of mie that I can't explain although I think it has to do with that word always seeming like an affectation when it's used? I am not sure.
@Keith is another guy that I used to be very close to but haven't spoken with in a long time, and I miss him and it was super fun drinking with him.
@Abracadaniel is unequivocally amazing and I love him.
@Melding is great and I wish I had the time to play games with her
@#pipe is super cool and also one of the OG forumers that I always feel less cool than.
@DHS Odium you were really funny whenever i went to flopax like... two years ago i think it was? now, for the real reason i'm doing this opinion. i hate your avatar so much and i need you to know. I NEED YOU TO KNOW
Why do you hate my avatar?
I have been thinking about changing it for awhile now, but I've had it forever. Unfortunately for you, if I do change it, it would be a higher quality vector version of the same general concept. Ha!
Melding is great and I wish I had the time to play games with him
:?
Also i guess there was a windows update or something cause my computer restarted and now i have lost all of my progress on this list. so that's annoying.

Would you believe after I said things are going well that my girlfriend just got hit today by a drunk driver going the wrong way on the highway?
She's okay, car's totaled.
I'm glad she's OK but that's awful. She's going to feel it tomorrow though. I remember when my ex was in a wreck, she didn't have any injuries but she was sore for a good week.

11 years later and I'm amazed it's still a thing I actively use. Helps that my gmail account of the same name is almost old.
If there is going to be a PAX North it ought to be in Canada.
just feeling like
it's been done
you have to switch your technique up m'man
add some zest to you smooches
It's just some friendly ribbing, really!

you're not a chun li, and i'm not my cat. we're men with names. registered under other names for this tournament.
i think i was too concerned with not coming off like a weirdo to be cool!
"cool"
But I guess I... didn't??
i been putting hotsauce on my tongue the past 12 months
who knows sali, who knows
i'd like to though. see how tough this liver of yours is
sal: is good, missed by his friend tito
by... himself??!?
I'm still around!
Just mostly on err twitter I guess
I'm going to start brewing up a get together in the MN thread, soon.
but they're listening to every word I say
@Rainfall is a cool phalla player
@-Tal is a mystery
@Solar is someone in the forums that I like a lot and always like hearing his perspective on stuff.
