I know it was like two pages ago, but Wrath, I can't agree that the N64 library > PS1 library. That's impossible. The N64 had some excellent games, but the PS1 was the SNES of its generation, same as the PS2.

the worst feeling ever is getting stuck writing a paper all day, then banging it out in 30 minutes.

If you want to do your drugs at home, that's fine.  Just don't come to my ER looking for them.  I am not a forgiving person at 5 in the morning...

Twisted Metal 2 destroys all those Wrath!

I don't think 90% of the games from that era aged well by the way.  The jump into 3D was rough and left so many games unplayable 10 years later.

What do people order at Jack in the Box that takes so long? And why doesn't Burger King serve breakfast all day?

3 years ago I would have said Jack in the Box was delicious but by all standards it's fucking terrible now.  Absolutely terrible.  I don't know if my taste changed or they changed something.  But Christ almighty it's bad.  I've also gotten food poisoning 5 times from there.  But that didn't stop me.  Maybe it's just my body now rejecting it.  Service is terrible.  Food is terrible.  Natural cut fries with 96 grams of saturated fat!!!  FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU  My hate for Jack in the Crack knows no bounds.

5 times?   okay, 1 is a fluke, 2 is screwed up, 3 is omfg this place is awful I'm never going here again.  4 and 5??!

[Mupepe]

I'm a masochist.  The first 2 times were on holidays.  and within a week of each other (Dec. 25 ~2 AM and Dec 31 ~11pm).  So I figured "avoid on holidays!"

Then I had it out of the blue.  I couldn't smell a bacon ultimate cheeseburger or think about one without getting sick for like 2 years. 

Then I had some bad tacos one night and I decided "Okay, no more tacos!"  At this point I was able to eat the bacon ultimate cheeseburgers again so I thought I was okay.  Then I had a hamburger deluxe, got sick as a motherfucker and swore it off forever.  This was about 5 months ago.

Never again, motherfuckers.  Never again.

Edit: To be clear, only the first two times were from the same store and to be fair, i have a pretty weak stomach when it comes to food.  it's easily upset.

h.  I got a five guys and a Dairy Queen down the street.  Whataburger is good.  But it's expensive with a limited selection and limited locations.  The closest ones are both like 5 miles away.  Meh.

what about sonic?

And Dairy Queen rocks. I have not been to one in YEARS. They used to have one over by main street and Humble Elementary School but they replaced it with a Vietnamese Wok shop. BOO.

[Mupepe]

I used to walk to that Dairy Queen when I lived in those apartments.  Goddamn motherfucking dipped cone!

Sonic is close by but it's another overpriced restaurant that is simply decent.  The best thing is the reeses blasts, but I like the reeses blizzards more.  And the chili cheese fries from dairy queen are better too.  oh and sonic fries are sooooo friggin small.

By the way, I'm going to Casa del Pueblo tomorrow after work.  I haven't been there in like a year dude!  Goddamn I am so fucking excited.

We're onto Casa Del Pueblo which is NOT junk food.

I BET YOU DO!

I'm going to get a burrito and two fucking tacos.  And that fucking salsa.  It's going to be incredible.  Then I'm taking it home to eat while watching Lost with the wife.  I'll give you a call while I eat it if you want.  I mean, I'll tell you about every fucking bite and how the deceased cow is cumming in my mouth.  I WILL

[Madrun Badrun]

Went to ask someone from one of my classes a question, and instead of introducing myself or saying excuse me ect.  I come up from behind and say "Are you done questions 4 and 5?".  I'm so socially awkward. 

[Mupepe]

Well what did they say?

[Powerslave]

do you want me to post some socially awkward penguin pics to cheer you up?

I think our company just hired the oldest living man alive, and the best part of it all is that I have to work with this fossil.  Fucking sweet.  He smells like Gold's Bond Medicated foot powder, moth balls, and ass.

Tomorrow at lunch I'll take him over to the bank so he can exchange his Confederate money for some foldin' cash.

[Madrun Badrun]

   I've done all those but the book one.

I've seen this in a movie before. At first, you'll despise him and have a hard time putting up with his old and crazy ways.  Then one day, he'll do something completely wrong, but with the best intentions (which you won't understand at the time.)  You'll get really mad and blow up at him...then he'll just get sad, sit you down, and tell you a story about how he fought in the war, which will give you both a new found understanding of him while also providing you with perspective on your own life.  It'll dawn on you all along that he's a genius with a lot to teach you.  From then on, each day with him will be a fulfilling learning experience.

Then he'll try to touch you after he gains your complete trust.

Well my Mom and Dad found out about my sexual escapades.

What happened?

[brawndolicious]

I once got a lesbian to play a (male) gay character for a English video arts project.

[etiolate]

Can't find my checks and need to send out rent.

Had to use public restroom(hate this) and got stuck listening to bad 90s alterna-rock while staring at the racist wall scribblings.

Bright side: Pizza with shrimp and pine-nuts.

[Madrun Badrun]

Just got a text book to prepare from my summer job for $22 on amazon new,  it regularly goes for $130.   It was the last copy too.

[Barry Egan]

Sounds dreadful.

[tiesto]

So apparently, at a Dunkin Donuts near my house, some young Russian kid working there (around 17 I think) went out back to empty out the trash, and fell into an unblocked pit that led to the cesspool... what a way to go, drowned in the cesspool 

[Brehvolution]

I'm so sick of arguing with banks. Today marked the 3rd time in 6 month I've had to show the lady on the phone that I was charged overdraft fees when the money was in there.
Her: bu bu bu there was a tip left on your card and that doesn't come out right away
Me: It was a 2 dollar tip and the money was in there
Her: Well, it confuses the system
Me: Then your system is a moron

Seriously, I shouldn't have to babysit my bank and argue over reversing fees that shouldn't have been charged in the first place. Greedy fucks!

[Mupepe]

I hate my banks.

Wells Fargo decided to close my savings account for inactivity because I hadn't made any withdrawals in 6 months.  Uhh, but there were deposits every two weeks for the last 6 months!  Then to get it reactivated was a pain in the ass and my online banking STILL doesn't work. 

Chase had one of their atm's compromised and when we called to file a claim the dude says it will take 48 hours to investigate.  Within 3 minutes we had an email saying our claim was denied.  We called back and this lady says "someone had access to your card.  i'm sorry but you need to find out who you knew that had access.  the transactions were done in your area.  the claim is denied and it's going to stay denied."  I'm glad this power hungry bitch knows more about where my card was than I do!  It took a ton of bitching before we got them to do further investigation and the lady tells us "we have a guide for isntant denials if it meets a certain criteria so our representatives were just doing what they were told to do."  Well can you tell them to fuck themselves?

Oh and when Enterprise does an inquiry to make sure I have more than 500 in my account so I can rent a car, that doesn't mean to hold 500 fucking dollars for 3 weeks, Chase!  2 and a half weeks after I already returned the motherfucking car!

I hate when I'm having a great conversation with someone I've just met then it starts to go downhill because all I can think of is 'Wow I'm actually having a great conversation with someone I just met, maybe I'm not so socially distinguished mentally-challenged!'

[Barry Egan]

you should just say that out loud next time so that its out of your system. 

[Diunx]

Make sure to laugh afterwards so she thinks you are joking.

It's better when you both have the same moment and conversation stops entirely.  At least then you can both laugh awkwardly (like in the movies).

For whatever reason, I don't have this problem much. Either it's a disaster right from the start, or I'm able to have a good conversation for a while. The last time it was three hours a while.

[Madrun Badrun]

wtf

[Moran]

Well I'm more than comfortable enough talking to people I know and I can hold a conversation for hours with someone new if I've been drinking a little but sober I just can't deal with anyone I haven't spoken to much, I completely freeze up most of the time and when I don't the above happens soon enough. It just makes it pretty hard to talk to people in my classes who are people I'd really like to be friends with most of the time.

My main problem is that it's like a 50/50 chance I will be either charmingly awkward or 'i need to get away from this conversation' awkward. If someone opens the conversation with a compliment or my voice starts too high/loud/quiet I get completely thrown off and it's pretty much downhill from there

The worst part is knowing I just need to relax more but not being able to do that, I remember last year for a couple of months I would have an irish coffee before work so I could talk with customers easier. I stopped but to be honest it wasn't enough to negatively effect my work or to be noticeable and it did help me out quite a lot, I felt pretty guilty about it though.

[Madrun Badrun]

Guilt from drinking?  You don't deserve your avatar!

[Moran]

I know :'( my boss at the time was such a sweet old lady though.

Yesterday I went through a huge storm to reach the chemist.  So in this already-flustered state, I was then served by an unusually cute girl at the chemist.  Afterwards it took me three tries to find my way out of the store.

[Phoenix Dark]

Showed the house off to a potential new roommate today. He was wearing a doo-rag and babby sweats, like many of the dudes at school. Talked to him a bit and he seems pretty cool though; he's a cook which rocks. But then things went kinda meh

me: the place is normally pretty quiet, although my roommate plays his gospel music rather loudly at times lol
him: oh for real, I'm into that too. I make gospel hip-hop, I'm a producer on the side.
me: oh, that's...cool
him: yea man, givin god the props, that's what I'm about.
 

Having two members of the urban black Christian...thing in the same house could be annoying. Literally all my roommate does is eat (rarely cleaning up after himself) and listen to sermons and praise music.

[Madrun Badrun]

How do your roommates feel about your cheeseburger porn?
