@Itchi, that seems like something I should try. This is Washington, we don't need any non-rain weather.

when you guys want to annoy someone, how do you go about doing it? this can be a specific person or just in general. When I annoy my brother, I go out of my way to say "moist" in ways that it is grammatically correct, like "the rain is making my jacket quite moist." Other times, I go out of my way to pronounce "queue" as "quayway." (that is about as close as I can spell it.. you get the idea)

My friend can't stand people looking through his graveyard pile. A spectator will reach over to look through it, and he won't let them.
To annoy, I just say "Can you make some suggestions on this deck?" and show em an unedited RTR Intro Deck.

You could start calling everyone "bloke." What a funny word, I'm not sure what it means though. You could also describe anything weird or not average as being "wonky."
July 3, 2015 12:25 a.m.
Alright, so I've had experience around 'meth', but I never smoked 'gak', as I called it back in the day.
Hopefully, that solves any dilemma...

So my laptop hard drive fried today for no reason. Not even a recovery drive is working. Yay new laptop...less than a year. Jeeeeez

Um, "bloke" is English slang for guy, generally in a positive manner. Example, "ChiefBell? Aye, tha guys in alraight bloke, init e. Propah gentuhlmin."
Not sure those with a Yorkshire accent actually use the word or not, but I wanted to try typing with the accent.

Going back a few posts, I think the simplest difference between a college and a university is that a university offers graduate programs, while a college does not.

I've been in San Francisco for a bit, and I've already decided I'm going to move out to California once I get out of graduate school. The only saddening thing is there's trash everywhere. Other than that, it kicks the east coast's ass, in my opinion. But maybe it's because I lived in the east for half my life and the other half in the fabulous state of Ohio.

Ya know I've lived in California nearly all my life and never once visited san Fran. Been to Monterey though. What's made you decide to move?

Happy birthday to Captain America, and happy fourth of July for the rest of you plebs.

Someone say pleb? You called.
EDIT- I was planning on moving to Cali for college, but I'm not sure what it is like there right now with the drought. How bad is it?

I am currently working (on break, but working). On that note, holy shit, why the fuck are people so fucking stupid right now?!

Independence Day, 'Murica, and all that pizzazz. Plus booze.

Did anyone else see this? I never knew about this, this is fucking cool.

I'm going to be a freshman in college, but I'm pretty much set on coming out here to California once I get out of grad school. Or I'll come here for grad school and stay. I've still got a while to think about it.
But why? I like the culture. It's just more entertaining out here compared to the east. California seems to fit my style and whatnot. And to boot, there's the weather. It's perfect out here so far. I went to Monterey and Carmel yesterday, and those places were the nuts. I'd love to go out to San Diego sometime though. There are too many tourists, like myself, here anyways. But I guess that's anywhere with places to go like California.

Things I have learned today: NoPantsParade is a surfer dude and says bro a lot. I have extrapolated this knowledge from his desire to live in California.
Things everyone else has learned today: Even Canadians have skewed opinions on certain places in America.
In other news: It feels that whenever I go on mini hiatus the site dies. Either I am secretly important or everyone else is busy. I shall assume the latter.

Well, all dem' americans are having some fun right now. Don't worry, they'll be all back tomorrow :p

I want to live in California, but I am no way a surfer dude, nor do I frequent the term bro.
;)
EDIT- And I wasn't having fun. Probably one of the worst days of the year. Insomnia and fireworks don't mix. I didn't sleep at all. :(

I know your pain, friend. I have work in about fifteen minutes and my all of me hurts because I didn't sleep well last night.

ThisIsBullshit says... #31
Yeah I was in a tent last night and fireworks didn't stop till 11:30 and my neighbors didn't turn their overly loud country music off until 1. And then they turned it on again at 8.

NoPantsParade says... #32
I'm not a surfer dude, though. I haven't really seen that many here anyways. I just like the culture and terrain. The east consists of preps out the wazoo. I don't know, but California offers a lot more than the east coast. But these stupid laws out here also suck. The plastic bag ban is nice, but most of the other laws I've seen here kind of suck.

I am getting real fucking sick of my coworker. I'm about ready to pop him in the jaw if he keeps being a prick...
Ya know, I used to be a pacifist. I miss those days.

NoviceMagician says... #34
Wait, plastic bags are banned in California?
I was two houses down from the fireworks that went past 1:00 a.m., because people can't get enough Murican freedoms. Yay.

I just got cell service for the first time in 2 days. Any cool stuff from Origins I missed when I skimmed through it?

@Magicrafter depends on what you've seen... I think all of the exciting cards are rares and mythics though.

WHere? That's like 0.00333333333 the price of a playset at TCG mid.

Yeah seriously, how did you get them for so low? Proxies?

I would assume he found them in a commons box at his lgs, or from a casual player.
July 5, 2015 8:08 p.m.

I couldn't do that, I'd have to let them know how much the cards are worth. But cool beans. :)

Man, my brewing skills are so rusty. I think I damaged something deciding card choices.

GoldGhost012 I know what you mean... I feel thy pain, for it is my own. Though I can't even brew right now. My brain and Magic just aren't working together right now.

Crap.

I have discovered true happiness. There is currently a heat wave in Washington. This is upsetting to most of my family as we run at higher body temperatures anyways. To combat this, I'm laying on multiple ice packs with a fan pointed at my feet. Feel better than I have in days.
