@lordoftheshadows sounds legit. Except I hate most of the librarians (one is actually nice) and they all (except the one) basically dislike children. And then there's my English teacher (who I have for the second year in a row) who 'teaches' by giving us books and a packet. Finish one? Get another. Then like two weeks before standardized testing she gets all stressed and complains about how were not ready and makes us write like 500 essays to prepare for the on-demand writing section.

Good thing my aunt's the MSHS principal.

Well, my Dad went to high school with H. John Benjamin. I was told he was the funniest guy in his whole class.

Trying to lighten up the mood here. Probably will be unsuccessful.

Welp I tried.

I pulled an Expedition Prairie Stream last night. I bought the pack just because I didn't wanna go through the hassle of using my card for less than five dollars. Feels good.

Anyone here good with computers? I've got something odd going on. It appears that Safari on my iphone and Chrome on my desktop are linked. Like, if I google "imdb (insert show here)" on my phone on safari, and then go onto my desktop and type in "I" in the google search bar, the exact phrase I just googled on my phone appears on the desktop, despite the fact I haven't searched it on the desktop. I don't remember setting this up, and I have no idea why it's happening with two different engines.

kyuuri117, poltergeist, maybe. (%_%)

You probably have your safari search engine set to google and you've logged in with your google account on safari.

kyuuri117, Mac desktop? If it is then iCloud transfers all that search info and most visited between all you devices.

A fat pack is a reasonable place to hide honey, right?

October 11, 2015 8:45 p.m.

Coinman1863 says... #9

Sure, definitely...

October 11, 2015 8:49 p.m.

Also my Prossh deck, More Tokens?, is finally done!

Huzzah!!!

It's super interesting that i could've bought 2 amibos for 12.99 each and sold them for 25 on ebay haha

October 11, 2015 9:56 p.m.

So, I just found my cards all over the floor and the honey torn from my fatpack.

trollslayer says... #13

? Please restate that, into non magic player language. I have momentarily forgotten the language.

October 12, 2015 7:43 p.m.

That was in non-magic, I had honey in my fatpack box.

Sooo I joined 2 years ago my last activity was 2 days ago I've added/ fixed 2Cards, I have 2 deck cycles remaining, and I have 2 feature tokens and my last deckcycle was 2 hours ago.

I think I need to have my wisdom teeth removed. For about 1 month I'm constantly biting my tounge and my cheeks on the inside. It annoys me and hurts.

October 13, 2015 10:04 a.m.

Coinman1863 says... #17

Do it, it makes you feel a lot better, though post op can get nasty like it did for me.

I had one side of my face get completely swollen and had to have my face drained and get narcotics for pain for week.

After that, its all been sunshine and roses for my face. Doesn't hurt anymore.

October 13, 2015 10:10 a.m.

VampireArmy says... #18

I know that feel. I can't move my jaw side to side what so ever. Have to wait Until i move back home for dental though

I have an appointment next Wednesday. I do hope they don't have to remove them, but my hopes aren't too high :(

October 13, 2015 10:17 a.m.

filledelanuit says... #20

Putrefy Good luck. I had mine out 4 months ago. There were about 15 people who got theirs out after AP exams. My physics class was missing a ton of people right before the end of school.

October 13, 2015 12:26 p.m.

I had mine out on December 23rd a few years ago. Sucks to wake up on christmas morning and not want to get out of bed or eat food.

October 13, 2015 5:24 p.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #22

I hope I don't have to get mine out ...

October 13, 2015 6:40 p.m.

Nef says... #23

Got mine out and it was easy peasy. Two were impacted and I was fine in a couple days. Didn't even use the pain meds

October 13, 2015 7:28 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #24

I had no issues with mine, got em removed, got some Vicodin, felt great for the weekend.

Then again that was MANY years ago so meh.

October 13, 2015 7:59 p.m.

Perhaps one of the greatest feelings is having a big storm right outside but still having power.

October 13, 2015 8:03 p.m.

Got mine out the same day I got the admission decision from my dream school. And of course the admissions system went down. So there I am, sitting there with an ice pack wrapped around my head, mashing the refresh button for four hours. Ended up getting in, so it was worth it.

If you prepare for it, you'll be fine in a day or two. I had three out (fourth decided to not form) and took half an Oxy and never touched it again. The oral surgeon put me on all this homeopathic stuff for like a month before, and I didn't swell a bit.

Chewing and getting food stuck back there is wonky for a week or so regardless of what you do.

72% on my second chemistry exam. At first I was disappointed then found out the average was a 68% and the median was a 70%. Not happy with it, but there's some consolation somewhere in the mix.

October 13, 2015 8:21 p.m.

GoldGhost012 says... #28

I got a solid 58% on my Calc 3 exam. That was fun.

Over 50% is passing, right?

October 13, 2015 8:42 p.m. Edited.

Sitting on a couch and being lazy is more interesting when you must limbo to get off the couch.

October 13, 2015 8:44 p.m.

filledelanuit says... #30

I fucked up a calc 3 exam really badly on friday. The worst bit is that I didn't even screw up the calculus I just forgot how to do math. I thought cos(pi) was 1 which screwed up two problems and I screwed up this equation:

y+1=5-x2

which I said equals:

y=5-x2

I don't have a clue what I was thinking, probably something about English Literature.

Say whatever you want about Travis Woo the mtg player but he's a brilliant dude in real life. As a native Californian, i can tell you he's right in the water supply post here you may need to scroll.

It's getting bad over there man.

October 14, 2015 1:52 a.m.

JakeHarlow says... #32

Yeah, it's very concerning. What could others (such as myself, albeit a Floridian) do to ameliorate this development?

Will Fallout New Vegas become true?

VampireArmy says... #34

Around where i grew up. Kinda. It's crazy how there were warnings broadcasted literally ten years ago but no one listened.

Us average people can't really do much. It's all on cooperations to do the right thing

October 14, 2015 9:55 a.m.

Ohthenoises says... #35

Lol @ corporations doing the right thing.

October 14, 2015 12:38 p.m.

I wonder if French Toast Crunch would go well with Swiss cheese? Maybe melted...

October 14, 2015 5:47 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #37

So, in a vacuum, Wingmate Roc or Dragonlord Ojutai considering a midrange deck strategy with perfect mana. Thoughts?

October 14, 2015 5:56 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #38

Ohthenoises with no knowledge of the deck I'd say wingmate.

If you go wide: wingmate

If you don't: dragon

October 14, 2015 5:57 p.m.

I know I'm going to be on the losing side of this one, but the Roc. Casting that thing off an attack is game over vs a lot of strategies.

October 14, 2015 5:57 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #40

I'm playing Bant megamorph and I'm trying to decide between the two.

On the one hand I have the ojutais and not the Wingmates. On the other hand I want to build the best deck possible and I don't know if Ojutai is the right choice.

October 14, 2015 6 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #41

I'd say roc for sure then

October 14, 2015 6:01 p.m.

I'd say the Roc if you can consistently get the Raid.

October 14, 2015 6:02 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #43

So, uhh, just got finished doing something I swore I would never do

I just got finished double sleeving a commander deck

There's no shame in protecting your cards, Ohthenoises!

October 14, 2015 9:32 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #46

I know, but DOUBLE SLEEVING?! I mean...

October 14, 2015 9:34 p.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #47

Ohthenoises ... some people triple sleeve. I know I like to.

October 14, 2015 11:09 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #48

A commander deck though? I double sleeve all my 60 card decks but this is the first time I've double sleeved a commander deck. It feels, off.

October 14, 2015 11:15 p.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #49

You'll have quite the ... Command Tower there if you triple sleeve :D

October 14, 2015 11:18 p.m.

Ohthenoises says... #50

Trolololol

Very nice.

Actually to make a joke I took 50 of the hard plastic shipping sleeves once and triple sleeved a Doran tiny leaders deck. My opponents were like "um, what the hell?" Their face as I was able to shuffle it was worth the pain in the ass.
