So I'm going to a grad party today.
Note to self - Don't become friends with upperclassmen, because they graduate and leave you.

You'll survive. I'm leaving my junior and whatnot friends, but I'll be about 3 hours away from home, so it's all good.

AT&T needs to invade upstate New York and Vermont.
And becoming friends with your upperclassmen is a fantastic idea. It's how you make connections. Connections make everything easier, from getting jobs to having a place to stay if you're visiting the area.
Also, if this party is at night, there will be tipsy hot coeds looking for a "friend". Go make friends.

So I just learned through one of my dad's Vermont friends, who used to be part of the NRA, that the reason Vermont currently has the nutjob of a senator Bernie Sanders is actually because of the NRA.
They were pissed that the governor at the time was trying to rally a no guns movement, and so as retribution the NRA used their connections to put this wack job into office. Their reasoning was "if you wanna be communistic, here, have a real communist" lmao
Dad's friend left the NRA after that. Said if they were gonna be so self destructive he couldn't support em anymore.

Ohthenoises I saw your tag and read the comment and thought "why the fuck am I tagged in this" and then I got it.
My name is glorious.

NoviceMagician here is a better note to self: don't date foreign exchange students because the entire time they are with you you know that they will leave but you just keep denying it. Once they finally do it hurts more than a normal breakup because both sides were happy with each other an still want to be together but they can't......
So yeah. Don't do it.

How does one get rid of a person that won't stop messaging them on Facebook? I'm actually afraid to go on Facebook now. All, and I mean all, of my pictures have been liked, and she keeps messaging me. What do. I haven't actually opened the messages so there's no read receipt yet. Halp

Block them pants
Go to Thier profile
Find the settings
Block
Also you can set your stuff so only your friends list people can see what you post. I'd recommend that
Also i need some probes too
:/

VampireArmy what do you need probes for? You have Thoughtseize in mardu colors.

If it's got legacy staples and enough of them then definitely still buy it. If anything you can sell some of the staples to make back the 20 and still have whatever's left

The issue with blocking her is that the guy I mow for weekly lives right across from her. And one of my best friends lives next to the guy I mow for. To boot, I see her frequently at my grocery store where I work.

VampireArmy says... #33
That doesn't mean you're obligated to interact with her. At the very least you can tell her you blocked her because you were getting uncomfortable with her persistence
June 27, 2015 7:50 p.m.
NoPantsParade says... #34
You make a good point, VampireArmy. I guess if she keeps on messaging me, I'll block her then.

mfw my sister says we're not a family anymore and she hates all of us and means it

Ohthenoises says... #36
So you just described what happened with my brother and my family.
This was my reaction: 
June 27, 2015 10:17 p.m.
The "we're not a family anymore" thing happened to me to, and I was like, "lel git gud".
June 27, 2015 11:09 p.m.
fish everywhereWtF is wrong with my family.
I just spent 40 min or so typing an extensive addition to a deck description of mine. I'm almost done. My brother has nothing better to do than to sneak up behind me to try to pull a prank. He rushes over and shuts down the computer from behind. I yell at him and punch him in the gut. I turn the computer back on, and all my progress has been deleted. My mother walks in, I tell her what he did, she screams at ME to shut the fuck up, not giving a shit about what he did, tells me to get off the computer so my brother can use it, he declines and goes to bed, she goes to bed, and I get in trouble for punching him. Now I need to start all over.
What. The. Fuck.

This is why you don't get back at someone through physical violence. You have to play mindgames. If you screw with his head it's much better than a ppunch in the gut.
June 28, 2015 1:19 a.m.
I'd honestly consider myself fit, intelligent, and very social.
He is the exact opposite. The guy is as dumb as a fucking rock.
Tbh there isn't much of a mind in the first place.

I keep wanting to do a Sultai deck for Commander, but all the lists I look at for a starting ground are purely combo decks. Not a fan of super linear gameplay in Commander.
June 28, 2015 12:43 p.m.
Super linear? Play Sidisi, Undead Vizier with the Sickening Dreams combo.

Ahah, I stopped EDH online because my Narset deck was waaaay too overpowered ($2000 to win turn 3 almost every single time) :p
But yeah, that's really linear.

elpokitolama says... #49
Also, if you're seeking great and fun EDH games, you should go for group hug. U/G is very good for this, and black mana addition could help you to be able to manage the power-ups you're giving to your opponents ;)
