Also, it's pretty sad that people will tear down his posters after realizing he's gay. Your coworkers are assholes dude.
B...because it interferes with their fantasies? He's no longer their teenage heartthrob?
Imagine the fallout if Jane Austen rose from the grave and announced Mr. Darcy was gay.
It would be like this situation, had this happened in 1999.

Also, read my posts as if they are spoken by Alec Baldwin.
The signature is very clear on this.
Do not imagine Ashton Kutcher saying it.
That ruins the mystique. Philistine.

I'm so very confused. When was Mr. Darcy alive in 1999?
So, Ricky Martin is gay... now all my co-workers can take down his pictures from their cubicles. I wonder who will replace him at the office.
My thoughts
1) Ricky Martin still exists as an entity?
2) People still had Ricky Martin pictures up - unironically, in public- in the year 2010?
3) People that, in 2010, were still diehard enough about Ricky Martin's terrible music to put pictures of him in their cubicles, were put off because he likes some manbutt?
4) Really??
In the US he had a really short career, but he still sells out concerts in Latin America. He's been really big in PR for a loooooong time.

What the fuck am I supposed to do with all these Mr. Darcy posters I've got hanging in my cubicle now?

You know, I know I read Pride and Prejudice in high school, and when I read it it was just all, "ok, English people talking about...boring English shit", so whenever I hear about how Mr.Darcy is go-to female wank material I feel like I must have missed a lot of shit from that book. I had to go look him up on Wikipedia just to make sure he was the guy in Pride and Prejudice.
Anyone want to give me the Cliff's Notes version of why he's supposed to be so great? Was there a bunch of saucy innuendo in there I missed or something? Or is it just, (IIRC), rich guy with an English accent and a big house = unf unf unf unf?
(3 weeks till i can play wow again.
i'm playing pokemon to get me through it... it's... it's not the same.)

Lexxy, that is basically my divide between getting pokemon and the SCII beta on practically the exact same time.
But now I have all 16 badges and am training up to beat the Elite 4 mach 2 and Red.
I need to find someone willing to transfer my EV-trained teams/items over so I'm not fighting Red's pikachu with my Surf/Waterfall Feralgator

Let us know when the time approaches, and I will see to rolling up something over thereabouts.
idk if I'd make a warrior or DK--I love both, but I don't have time to get a warrior up from 1. Plus I'm not a completely unfortunate tank with frost spec :B
I would love to WoW with forumers, but I just cant bring myself to play it anymore.

WoW is a great game that I would love to still be able to play, but seriously screw the time commitment required for raiding.
Every time I think about playing it again I think "Remember Friday nights? Remember letting everyone down because you wanted to go out drinkin?"

I love MMO's too. I avoid them like the plague when I have work to do though, haha...I absolutely get sucked in.
I actually got really sucked into the DS game I was playing this past week, which is probably why I beat it as fast as I did. I just...I just needed to finish the game, dammit...though apparently there's some "extra thing" you can do now, and it would take forever, and part of me is like "IT'LL BE TEDIOUS BUT YOU SHOULD DO IT" and the other half of me is like "DAMMIT I JUST WANT IT TO END" so I can get my work done without this nagging "FINISH THIS THING" in the back of my head.
I'm thinking about getting rid of some old PC games...I'm probably never going to play Icewind Dale II again, though it was really good. Or the Sims 1. I can see myself installing Rollercoaster Tycoon again for nostalgia's sake somewhere down the road (holy hell I love that game, SO HARD)...but I want some *new* games.
I could always give them to my younger brother...but I'd feel kinda guilty, as he has a complete lack of motivation to do anything (he'll be, oh god, 19 soon), never does his homework, is content to play games all day...and would probably live in our mom's basement, jobless, until he was 30, if she would allow it. I feel like I'd be...contributing to his issues?
But...I don't want to throw these games out. They still work, and are fun and awesome. They're so old though that I can't imagine I could sell them for anything, or trade them in.
[edit] ooo! Maybe I could sell them to a Game major! For like...$10 or $15 for the lot. I only have a small bunch.
You know what else I've been wondering? What the hell am I going to do with my Gameboy color? I never got rid of that thing, or the games...but I haven't played anything on it in years.

What kind of 19-year old dude is going to spend his time playing his sister's really old E for Everyone games when he can be blasting the shit out of shit that can be blasted on his XStationPlayBox360 with GoreFX processing units? Is your copy of Rollercoaster Tycoon really what's going to lead him down the path to ultimate ruin?
EDIT: Well I guess 19 isn't that young...but still. I'm 26 and therefore old and therefore I get to talk down to the youths.
I would've thought that Railroad Tycoon would only serve to stimulate his Tycoon ambitions in real life.
EDIT: Oh shit you said Rollercoaster Tycoon didn't you? Yeah well that's a different story, only financial ruin awaits after playing that game.
Well they're probably pretty similar, he just has to remember when he goes to work for Amtrak years down the line to not design any loop-de-loops into their new high-speed rail lines.

I think a Roller-Railway could only be a good thing for the rail industry.
Why the fuck would you want to fly to NY when you could take a roller coaster to get there?
Granted reading a book during the commute would be difficult, but think of the thrills!

If I was a chick I would be so turned on right now.
Alright, I guess my go-to move for wooing the ladies from now on will be impersonating Rowan Atkinson.

I think I might start playing WoW once I graduate and have the time to.
Personally I found that graduating meant the end of having time to play WoW
I don't expect this to be the case for me, but obviously if I don't have the time for it, I won't be playing it.
