The Game's Down Thread.

[Marauder Moe]

Sometimes I love you, Moe. 

Only sometimes?

The picture I got was simply Saikun and Ginka at a table in a coffee shop, Ginka humming happily away on the table and a Latte in front of both of them.

That was the second image I got.  Then I imagined what would happened if a random customer asked "Hey, what's that computer doing?"

[Zoan]

"Devouring souls."

[amish overlord]

Ginka doesn't hum. She roars.

Maybe you should replace some of the fans that isn't a good sign. J/K

[X-D]

Oh, and Saikun was dressed like strider in the prancing pony.

[Zoan]

Yes, he is all wreathed in shadows, despite the Starbucks being rather well-lit. It's ginka magick.

[Thunkkin]

Saikun is sitting shotgun. Ginka is driving.

Ginka: So what you want to know?

Saikun: Well, spice is legal there, right?

Ginka: Yeah, it's legal. They've even got public places to smoke it.

Saikun: Those are spice dens?

Ginka: Yeah.

Saikun:That did it, man – I'm fuckin' goin', that's all there is to it.

Ginka: You'll dig it. But you know what the funniest thing about Tuluk is?

Saikun: What?

Ginka: It's the little differences. A lotta the same shit we got here in Nak, they got there, but there they're a little different.

Saikun: Examples?

Ginka (turning to Saikun): You know what they call Allanaki Flame Cheese in Tuluk?

Saikun: They don't call it Allanaki Flame Cheese?

Ginka: No, they got farty wines up there. They wouldn't know what the fuck Allanaki Flame was.

Saikun: What'd they call it?

Ginka: The Cheese Pyramid.

Saikun: The Cheese Pyramid. What do they call templars?

Ginka: A templar's a templar, but they call 'em FAITHFUL Lord Templar.

Saikun: What do they call gickers?

Ginka: I dunno, I didn't bring that shit up. But you know what they put on travel cakes in Tuluk instead of scrab guts?

Saikun: What?

Ginka: Jam.

Saikun: Krath damn.

Ginka: I seen 'em do it. And I don't mean a little bit on the side of the plate, they fuckin' drown 'em in it.

Saikun: Uuccch!

[Saikun]

Ginka doesn't hum. She roars.

Amish Overlord 

No way dude, that's where I keep my cat hair and/or spiders.

[X-D]

Wasn't the last ginka filled with spiders, or was it the one before that?

[Saikun]

That was a couple Ginkas ago. I think in '98 or '99.

Is that where all the tarantula's come from that plagues pcs?

[Marshmellow]

Yeah, I kinda pictured Saikun in a pedophile van parked outside a coffee shop with wifi.

[Zoan]

<3

[Saikun]

Yeah, I kinda pictured Saikun in a pedophile van parked outside a coffee shop with wifi.

I liked the Strider bit, but this is probably closer to the truth.

Although, the only bar in my town also has WiFi now. Could keep Ginka on the stool next to me.

-S

[X-D]

On the bar in front of you, where you keep buying it drinks and feeding bad pickup lines as you wait and see how long it takes for them to call the men in white coats.

[Cowboy]

Forget Atonement..it keeps reseting and you have to keep starting over with
initial clothing and equipment issue and that process is lengthy.

I'd recommend, rather, that you study something in college which actually gives you good job prospects, especially assuming you're going to have to go into debt in order to go to college. Anything technical-math-science related has good potential. Things are just not like they were 20+ years ago, when getting a liberal arts education was relatively cheap and viable for work after college.

That's not to say that I think I wasted my time on my degree in anthropology, but that if I were to do it over again, I'd do it differently. And my kids are already on notice that their college education is going to be about getting tech/science degrees of some kind.

[Bebop]

It's still down?  Oh my gawd.

yeah, i don't have the option to do a science or math based degree--- i simply don't have the ability. and being a whiz kid in foreign language didn't help when my half-baked college had few options for such; and i had to change my major when they revamped english lit and made it about art movements rather than the human condition.

i understand the risks i'm taking, but i'm doing what i love doing. i know that if i got a job as a social worker i'm not going to make a lot of money, but its going to provide happiness that that money would have bought me anyway. i refuse to get a degree i despise and work a job i hate.

have to say tho, people in math and science degrees who love what they're doing, they got it made.

i'll be okay, i have low standards for myself. i want a Lincoln (beautiful cars, not high-end) and a trailer and some body jewelry and one of those old boxy tv sets from the 90s.

that and i'm a writer by soul. but getting that writing major seems like a waste of time to me. like getting a major in breathing.

i would also like to work in fast food as an alternative. given that no one's looking in the social sector for jobs, i'm not as worried as i should be.

*News Flash*
A terrible car accident occured today when a man driving with a CPU seatbelted into his vehicle lost control and crashed into a power pole. The CPU came loose of the seatbelt and was thrown through the windshield, slamming into a gas pump and causing a massive fire resulting in a fiery explosion. Fortunately, there were only minor injuries and no casualties.

The following day:

Authorities are investigating a strange burst of suicides all around the country around ten p.m. last night. All had left notes referring to something called ginka and an armageddon. Investigators believe it to be some sort of organized mass suicide but are still looking into further connections between these people.

[Taven]

I might do something productive and write a report to my clan imms, type up a few biographies, write an Armageddon-based story, draw a few characters, or edit a few logs to submit...

Then again, I might just end up playing ADOM. That game is strangely addicting.

Cutthroat, I'm in love with your haikus.
