Speaking of Illuminati, I got bored during the AP chem exam so I drew Illuminarty confirmed on my arm.

Boxers are best, unless they're too big or it's the summertime. Then your junk gets stuck to the side of your leg(s).

What's the difference? I don't even know these things.

One of those problems can be negated by buying the correct size.

And I'd argue that minor sticking and better airflow is preferable to having your genitals steamed in a thick cotton hammock.

May 4, 2015 10:36 p.m.

well, briefs are tight and stupid and dumb, while boxers have space, can be shorts in a jiffy, and are amazing.

Boxers are superior.

If you ever are about to sleep with a guy who you notice is wearing briefs,

"Ach! Hans, Run!"

So does anyone have any idea how stoked I am that Mono-Green Aggro is a legit deck again? Cuz I'm fucking stoked. I wanted to build it last week and ended up taking apart my Esper Dragons list, trading half the cards away, and built Mono-Green. Yesterday, a very similar list made top eight in Grand Prix Toronto.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of control decks... but my passion is mono-green aggro.

I've got a deck list up on my profile if anyone wants to check it out.

May 4, 2015 11:04 p.m.

its always been a legitimate deck.

I play it.

....in EDH....

5$ 6 pack of Smirnoff Ice. I don't think i can get drunk from this

kyuuri117 says... #12

Mono-Green Aggro is rarely a legit deck, even in EDH.

May 4, 2015 11:07 p.m.

@VA try getting drunk off my threads.

it numbs your brain with stupidity, so it'll probably work.

May 4, 2015 11:08 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #14

Derp believe it or not I enjoy your ramblings. They are amusing

May 4, 2015 11:09 p.m.

everyone enjoys my ramblings, VA, whether they like it or not.

anyhow, that doesnt mean I dont say some pretty stupid shit.

May 4, 2015 11:10 p.m.

"anyhow, that doesnt mean I dont say some pretty stupid shit."

I second that.

May 4, 2015 11:11 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #17

depends on your definition of stupid :D

May 4, 2015 11:11 p.m.

googled the definition of the word stupid.

here ya go.

"Stupid: An adjective originating from, but not strickly pertaining to actions that DERPLINGSUPREME has done, or was/is planning to do in the near future."

Bad self esteem is bad for you :P

in reality you're filling the place in the forums that i previously held.

May 4, 2015 11:15 p.m.

I don't have bad self esteem. I just know that a lot of wha tI say is dumb or silly.

also, since when did you act like me?

May 4, 2015 11:16 p.m.

VampireArmy says... #21

bout two years ago when I first joined the site.

May 4, 2015 11:17 p.m.

huh.

I keep filling in people's spots in my life.

In my EDH group for example. I've been with them for 8 months now. 8 months ago one of the people in their group left, and the only times they've seen him is when I'm gone for the session due to sickness or something.

We both overextend and get hit a lot before winning or taking a bunch of people out.

At least you're relatable. There are worse qualities to have

May 4, 2015 11:21 p.m.

like being psychotic, insane, untrustworthy, aggressive, lazy, incompetent, canadian (for the american stereotype within me to level up), racist, sexist, ignorant, stupid, sadistic, and not having any sense of other's personal space.

May 4, 2015 11:25 p.m.

CuteSnail says... #25

don't forget self destructive. I am familiar with those qualities.

May 4, 2015 11:27 p.m.

I just listed what I am and how people procieve me mixed together.

Anybody know any tips on how to sleep better ?

May 5, 2015 1:21 a.m.

kyuuri117 says... #32

Scorprix You can buy a bottle of Melatonin pills at a local drug store. Don't think they are over the counter either, so no prescription needed. You basically take one when you wanna go to sleep and it should help.

If you don't know what it is, it's basically a.. hormone, i think, that senses when it's getting dark and makes you sleepy. By taking a pill, it kinda helps convince your body it's time to go to sleep. Different than a sleeping pill that forces your body to sleep.

May 5, 2015 1:26 a.m.

kyuuri117 says... #33

I should add that it's not something you take arbitrarily. Like, you can't decide to go to sleep at 11pm one night take one, then 2am the next night, and 12:30 the third night. That will start to fuck up your sleep cycle. You wanna like, take one at the same time every night, get in bed, and actively try and go to sleep. Read for 15 minutes, etc, then pass out.

Has one, But it's way to cute.

AngryBearTony says... #35

Tons. Guess it depends on what your problem seems to be, though. Melatonin for natural sleep rhythms, warm milk, hot tea like chamomile, new pillow, flip your mattress, counting sheep, envisioning a blank piece of paper, and then the pharma way (benadryl, and his OTC friends, or the heavier Rx stuff).

Routine. The number one factor in getting better sleep, is getting your body to recognize that x time is bedtime. Making sure to be in bed at that time every night. Don't oversleep. Get enough exercise.

Finally, if you're a snorer, wake with headaches constantly, are lethargic most of the day, never seem to have a clear head, then you need to go to your doctor and perhaps look into a sleep study. Sleep apnea is not the biz, but fixing it is amazing.

You know you've been watching Buzzfeed channels for far too long when you start to get headaches.

How long have I been watching these for? 6 hours?

There is a general election in England and it is very stressful. If no government gets a majority (more than 50% of the votes - simplified explanation) then the existing government will just keep going EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T VOTED IN. This minority government can then call for another election when the time would suit them, therefore guaranteeing their own victory. They could (for example) lower taxes for everyone, call an election a few months afterwards, then raise them once they secure a majority government (having safely won the election).

No party will get a majority. We're on Labour at around 33% (they're like Democrats), and Conservative at around 33% (they're like Republicans). The rest hover around 5% to 10%. The problem is that even if 35% of people vote for Labour, and 33% vote for Conservatives, IF the conservatives reach a 50% majority first (which they will do by allying with a few other parties to form a coalition) they will still get into power. Therefore we again have a situation where the party in power was not actually voted in.

The only way we can unseat the current government is if a) an opposing government receives 50% of the votes (won't happen), or b) an opposing government allies itself with other parties to form 50% of the votes (will hopefully happen). The problem with option B is that the current government can try to do that too!

Most of the structural systems in the world at the moment are actually fundamentally undemocratic for a variety of reasons.

Pretty sure the best catcall would be "nice package. Where you delivering it to?"

May 5, 2015 7:17 a.m.

Also buzzfeed is a terrible site

May 5, 2015 7:18 a.m.

I'm not talking about the site, I'm just watching the youtube videos. These videos are awesome. Like, how can you not enjoy, American's raving over poutine when they first try it in Buzzfeed's "American's Try _ Food" section?

May 5, 2015 8:21 a.m.

Forgive my Yankee ignorance, but poutines just seem like slow death.

May 5, 2015 9:14 a.m.

It's just chips, cheese, and gravy (I think)?

Poutine cheese is something called Squeaky Cheese ChiefBell, and just a few curds of that and you've exceeded your daily intake of saturated and trans fats. The average poutine dish comes with about 12 of them or so.

May 5, 2015 9:20 a.m.

ChiefBell says... #49

Cool. Sounds pretty nice.

Never had poutine before. Strangely I found a poutine restaurant here. Like that is all they have.
