The OTness

[ZiegDivine]

Yeah, I just got the go-ahead to build another new PC for the dealership. So what if the Service Department doesn't need a 128MB Radeon 9800SE? It might come with a free game that I haven't played yet! Of course they need high performance RAM! DVD-RW? Why not?

I wish my university felt the same way. Great video cards, but unless GW is in full screen mode (and even then sometimes) the game freezes.:undecided:

That sucks. :annoyed:

Another great side-effect of me building computers for the dealership is the fact that besides me no one else knows what's going on.:goofy:

So the whole process of me assembling a PC can easily take up three quarters of the day.:sinister:

Is that wrong?:astonished:

I'm going to die today on my way home from work. :scared:

This morning, driving to work it was +4 C and raining. Not rain like, "Hmmm... I should turn on my wipers to the mist setting" but I mean torrential down pour. And right now the temperature is -10 C and still dropping to -19 C with wind gusts up to 75kph and it's snowing. There's complete whiteout conditions all over the city and because of all that rain & freezing rain throughout the night and this morning, everything just went into flash freeze. There's even a snow plow in the ditch! :laugh:

It's going to be a fun drive home. :grin:

Welcome to Chicago weather!!! I miss the snow!!!!! Since I have been displaced to the shores of VA, I haven't had much of an opportunity to see much snow anymore. The weather down here is really weird! For most of this week the temps have been in the upper 60's F/lower 70's F. Those are late spring temps!!! February has always been a weird month down here and it sucks that I can't get some snow whenever I want it!!!!!

[IBeJebus]

Ill trade you Mord. If you want Minnesota weather feel free. The high today is 1. Not 1 Celcius, 1 Fahrenheit. Good times. Im just glad my car started because it was about -10 (-30 with wind chill) this morning when I had to leave.

No need for self pity. It's just that I really miss the snow. According to the weatherman it is supposed to snow here(virginia) this weekend. I'll believe it when I see it. The wintertime has always been my favorite season. The night skies are always much clearer and you can get a better glimps of the stars and the heavens. Plus, there are NO mosquitoes around during that time!!! I really hate mosquitoes....almost as much as i hate Hydras and Wind Riders......But anyway, I just miss not being able to play in the snow. :sunny:

You know Mord using that Sumemr Sun smiley at the end of your post realyl can't help the snow situation...

The story was about a school in Spokane, WA.



Probably because it "promotes violent, agressive and competitive behaviour."

That's basically it. The principal also said something about children not feeling safe if anyone can run up to them and tag them, forcing them to participate in a game that they may not want to play. :huh:

What about "Duck, Duck, Goose"? I hear there were citywide riots caused by this game and then Green Peace got in claiming defamation of wildlife (specifically for the ducks cause they never get to run). But you should have seen the riots... toddlers were running amuck! AMUCK I TELL YOU! :scared:

Run ph3ar the wrath of the non-goosed toddlers!!!! :grin:

That's just silly...Tag keeps kids running and thus more healthy. Besides I used to dominate that game (gotta love speed and agility) and on that grounds alone it should be allowed!

Bit of english news then that I heard yesterday (think it was yesterday....) A women recently got arrested for stabbing her husband. The reason behind the stabbing was because the guy wouldn't sleep with her even though she'd put on highheels and a thong. She claimed he wasn't fulfilling his marriage obligations and thus her actions were just.

After the stabbing the guy went to the station to report his wife before heading to the hospital for minor wounds to the arm.

So I'm not sure if this means you can now use the line (for married people at least) "Dear, I'm feeling rather randy tonight, please head upstairs and fulfill your marriage obligations".

Highheels and a thong got me thinking of strippers, which logically moves to prostitutes. The moment I started reading this a friend of mine sent me this link.

It's a Forbes article that compares the economics of prostitution vs. marriage for the working woman. An interesting read to say the least and semi related to Zero's news story.

Hopefully this isn't too racy for the forums.

Hmmm... Id say about 16 hours is the longest for me. I typically tend to not sleep a whole lot. Usually around 6-8 hours a night, hardly ever much more than that. That 16 hours was back in college after a party that lasted very, very long and I was very, very inebriated.:wink:

[nightrunner]

Sleep is a waste of valuble farming time! :angry:

[Mordakai Slivermoon]

I think the longest I was able to sleep in one stretch was around 12 hours and that was with the help of some alcohol. I usually end up getting around 2-4 hours of sleep each night. I have been on that schedule for so long that now my body automatically wakes me up after a maximum of 4 hours of sleep....unless I can drown it with booze. :drunk:

[ArbainHestia]

The thing is, though, it's not really "sleep" if it's alcohol induced. It's more of a coma like passout! But I've been able to sleep up to 16 hours without waking. If I do that now, though I'm useless for the rest of the day... even more so than normal! :P

:wave:

[Phaeax]

Alright...this is dead :shocked: *tear* Soooo...what's the longest time you've slept without waking? I've done 24 hours but that was after about four days straight without sleep :/ Mine was midnight on Friday/Saturday until 4pm on Sunday. What's that, like 40 hours? My mother woke me up and told me it was time for dinner, and casually while eating brought up the fact that it was Sunday, not Saturday. It, too, was associated with about 3-4 hours of sleep over 5 days of constant working.

[ZefvoneeGreff]

I think the longest I've ever gone without waking up was... I'm to lazy to count. But I fell asleep at around 9pm-ish on a friday night and woke up around 4:30pm on Saturday. But that was last summer-ish. Lately I've been insomniatic(is that even a word?) so I don't get quite that much.

[ZiegDivine]

I usually stay up for no reason at all until 2 am, doing ... nothing. Most sleep I've ever gotten has to be around 16 hours, it was due to 30 or so hours of straight GW playing.

P.S. Zef, too bad on leaving Mickael's HoH group, but I haven't seen him post in so long, that I may actually do the same. It was a great idea though...

I've had wierd sleeping patterns lately.

Like, falling asleep on the couch at 7:30 in the evening for no better reason than being prone. Of course, if I stay in the prone position for longer than thirty minutes it's almost guaranteed that I'll fall asleep.

That reminds me. The cruise I went on last summer or something, on the boat there was a 24 hour pizza place(godly pizza) And there were a few soft ice cream machines scattered around the boat(the correct termification would be "ship" probably). The ice cream was free and very uber.

And the only other good thing on that cruise was the walking track I ran around during the very windy storm. It was so windy, when the wind went by the stairs, it made this evil-ish howling sound. But the rest of the cruise was for little kids, and adults. Nothing for people my age. :cry:

We had like 4 buttons like that in the office before I quit. I made sure to hit 3 of them at the end of my last day. I already knew what the fourth did. They were pretty boring apart from this one that was hidden near the fire alarm.... The story of buttons at work reminded me of this...

Back when I worked on the space instrumentation side of the house, before I went back to school for my Master's, we did a lot of testing with the others who worked on our NASA project. We built the sensing instruments, and a spacecraft supplier in Los Angeles built the satellite. Before we could test in their facility though, we had to be adequately trained in the safety procedures of their facility.

One of these training sessions was on using their huge anechoic chambers. These things could fit a satellite in them, and in order to properly eliminate noise, was lined with sculpted walls of styrofoam coated in petroleum. The chance of fire was almost nil, but in case a sensor ever detected the probability of one, the alert system was a huge red button on the side of the chamber.

...but once pressed you couldn't let go. It activated an alarm system for the fire department to come and secure the situation. All involved were supposed to evacuate the building, but not the one who held the button. Releasing the button before the fire department arrived would cause the sprinkler inside to dump something ridiculous, like 40,000 gallons of water per minute, into the chamber and all over hundreds of millions of dollars worth of spaceflight equipment. And the video actually had the balls to tell the people watching it that they'd be responsible if they were the ones to sound the alarm.

So in summary, if an alert was ever given and you were stupid enough to be the one to sound the alarm, you'd be holding the fail-safe that occurs if the blaze is bad enough to char your body. And if you wuss out and leave before then, you may get a bill for $100,000,000 from the US government.

[Zero]

[ArbainHestia]

I soooo wanna push that button. :grin:

[ArbainHestia]

Sorry for the double post but I'm confused!? :dunce: Again... yeah, yeah, I know but... So you’re standing in this room, made of highly flammable and toxic materials, and if you hear this alarm go off, meaning there’s a good chance this VERY flammable room can catch fire, you can either:

Run away and let someone else press the button.

or

Push the button and hold it with the hope this very flammable room doesn’t actually catch fire and burn you and everything in it to a little charcoal.

or

Push the button and run. Destroying everything, reducing the chance you’ll be burned alive, but you might be charged for damages?

[Phaeax]

Run away and let someone else press the button. Yes, I and every other coworker who watched this video determined that we would select this option.

One of the guys in my unit used to work for Transport Company.
They drove many hours/day in MLVW (troop trucks). There's a red button on the dash for the starter (no keys required).
This newbie trooper has to ride in the truck with my friend, so he starts explaining how the truck works to kill time (and stay awake).
When he gets to the red button, :largeevil: he tells a story of how it's the self-destruct button. You know, Deny-The-Enemy and all that.
Kid nods his head. Truck is already running, so he hasn't seen it used yet.

Many hours later, while stopped, they get an alert to move.
They jump in the truck, and my friend hits the red button.
Woosh, the kid is out of the truck, running into the woods.:shocked:
My friend is WTF? Then realizes, and starts laughing his @ss off.
His packet commander runs over to ask WTF is going on.
My friend can barely breathe, explains the self-destruct. They round up newbie, and go on.:laugh:

My alarm on my new phone isn't effective enough....It was set to go off at 11 so I could make my midday class. It's now 5:52 and I've just gotten out of bed....*sigh* looks like i'm gonna have to buy an alarm clock....

You are just not used to it yet or maybe you don't have the volume turned up loud enough on the alarm on your phone. Speaking of alarms...how many alarms does your phone have anyway? Mine has 3 alarms plus a countdown timer as well. So basically, each day I can have up to 4 alarms going off in various increments. Most of the time I have no problem getting up with that thing going off at an annoyingly loud volume. Of course it also helps that I chose an annoying ring for the alarm as well to make sure that I would be able to hear it, get up, and turn it off. Just a few things for you to consider.....

[Aretelio]

My 1337 brain requires no alarm to wake up.

I set it anyway. Just in case.

[ZefvoneeGreff]

I have an uber-high tech alarm clock. It's called "parents"

So far, any alarm clock I've had has been unable to wake me up. And if I just wait until I naturally wake up, then I always would be late for school. :tongue:

[Zero]

I used to be the alarm clock for my parent's...

This one's got one alarm clock and then an infinite number of other settings i'm yet to explore. I can set any amount of reminders and so on though and everything has a Snooze feature.

The thing is, I haven't found a way to change what the alarm is. It's on its loudest volume (good thing) but it staggers itself. On my old Phone I'd set the alarm to a song I'd recorded etc adn that always managed to get me up. But I can't (and I'm not sure that I can) find a way to do it on this one...

[Tsukasa Kusanagi]

Hmm, I guess it depends. I'll wake up by myself if I have the will to the night before, for example last Saturday I left at 5:30am for something, so the night before I thought to myself several times "I HAVE to wake up at 4:30" and I did. However, I normally need a alarm on weekdays. . I hardly ever tell myself I have to wake up at 4:00am while I'm falling asleep at one or two . .

[Zero]

I somehow got up at 5am yesterday and 9am today. Guess work's playing on my subconcious :/ On the plus side I got 3 month's work of work done in 4 hour's yesterday. By the skin of my teeth it was given in on time. Silly Uni suddenly pushing all our dealines forward by one semester... ( I miss the :rant: smiley for these situations *tear* )

Edit: ZOMG it's back!

[Wandalf]

And now for something completely different I just discovered :
BloodRayne the videogame was rather amusing and entertaining (played it when it was first released), BloodRayne the Movie is rather craptacular.

I could've spend those 95 minutes on far more interesting things.

[ArbainHestia]

I hadn't noticed this before today but the 6'+ pile of snow that I had next to my car from shoveling my driveway is gone... it's been so warm the past few weeks all the snow in my front yard has completely melted.

Now if only I can turn my yard around to get the 2 feet of snow in my back yard to melt! :scratch:

[Der Dokter]

Mirrors!!!:sunny:

[Wandalf]

Mirrors!!!:sunny:

You, my good sir, are a genious. :grin:
*tips hat*

[ArbainHestia]

Well, I could do it with mirrors but where’s the challenge. I was thinking of another plan a la Dr. Evil’s methods. Using an over elaborate “time machine” I traveled back in time to the 60’s to when the US was making regular trips to the moon. During one of these trips I was able to stow away and upon arrival to the moon I escaped and build a very bright lunar base. Because of it’s brightness I decided to call this base the “death star”… because it’s almost as bright as a star… you know!

Anyway, with my evil henchmen I starting building prototypes (known as preparations A through G) of a “laser” and after several prototypes I’ve created a working “laser” called “Preparation H”. On the whole Preparation H feels good to me.

With my working “Laser” working, I traveled “Back to the Future” and now I plan on using my “Preparation H” on my back yard… or my backside. I think this should help clear things up faster. I guess I could use the mirrors to make sure my backside is clear! :scratch:

Anyway… that’s what I was thinking!
:wave:

[Der Dokter]

Umm.. how many kegs have you opened today?:undecided: :laugh:

[Tsukasa Kusanagi]

Snow? I can't remember when it snowed last. . .then again, three days ago it seems like it was 40 here and now it's like 70 so don't mind me ^.^

[Wandalf]

Snow? What's that?

Haven't seen a decent layer of snow in this moist, mediocre climate for a couple of years now.

[Zero]

Had snow in coventry and redditch during this winter. Not a bad layer but not the best I've seen. In fact haven't had a decent thick layer for about 15 year's I think :/

[Eladain Windshear]

Included in the massive amount of projects I have, is a simple Falling-Objects game created on Director. So, lacking Ideas, I decided to use Super Mario as a basis for it. While searching the net for images of our beloved plumber, I canme across one of the funnier random websites I've seen:

Heh, had me giggling for a good 10 minutes.

And may I add that I just read Everything is Illuminated and it's a damn fine book.

Thats the point of the OT thread, its supposed to be about whatever you want to talk about a long as its not Guild Wars. (OT= Off topic). So talk about whatever as long as it doesnt pertain to guild wars.








And yes I know most of our threads tend to end up off topic, but this thread is specifically for that.:grin: :laugh:

Well, we'll pick strawberry then, as blue is technically a sad color.

I am doing very well actually - work sucks, but that's just because it's work. I'm in the process of looking for a newer, better job, preferably something out doors, so I can not feel like a pile of office-mush when I get home. :grin:

Played, and still do occasionally D&D Online, its pretty fun at times. Otherwise work owns my soul for like the past three months. It sucks something fierce but not a whole lot I can do about it. My free time has shrunk massively lately, so whatever I do I don't have much time for =/. Other than that going pretty good.

Spring is here
Suh-puh-ring is here
Life is skittle and life is beer
I think the lovliest time of the year is the Spring
I do; don't you?
'course you do.

But there's one thing that makes Spring complete for me
And makes every Sunday a treat for me

*waltz*

All the world seems in tune on a Spring afternoon
When we're poisoning Pigeons in the park.
Each Sunday you'll see my sweetheart and me
As we poison the pigeons in the park

*Skip to end*

So if Sunday you're free, why don't you come with me
And we'll poison the pigeons in the park
And maybe we'll do in a squirrel or two
As we poison the pigeons in the park

*mumbles about this being the only song I can't remember all the way through*

Dr. Demento website (http://drdemento.com)

[Dark Calibur]

O_O... wow...

[lostchyld]

O_O... wow...


the song is really funny... But not right before work and it was stuck in my head. If I have to be humming/muttering lyrics, I prefer Godspell. One wouldn't want to be caught by one's boss singing about poisoning pigeons, especially not while there are guests in the store.

[Dark Calibur]

lol... in my school we had a vent , but before we knew what it was for, we asked the teacher, he said when we do dangerous experiments, there might be some dangerous fumes, and we would rather kill the birds than us

Something that came up at church this morning, during the kids message.

So I was watching "The 2 Towers" last night in my hotel room and I saw the part where Legolas said "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard." and ever since I've had that stupid, no good, louzy annoying internet stupid song going though my head. :angry:

You know... this one (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/hobbits). :grin:

If you're clutching your pants to your chest (instead of wearing them on your legs) Snow's already won the battle...

[ReZon]

Snow's a collector... and a collector never stops collecting.

She's actually taking all of your articles of clothing to get DNA samples so she can clone an Uber PAL from TRUE to do her beckoning. She has to wear them on her head first so she can absorb knowledge of your very essence!

Be warned! For shame!

[Phaeax]

...and you thought they were clean just because they were in the drawer? We all know that Arbain turns them inside out and folds them before putting them back after wearing them, to be used again at a later time.

Not to change the topic from my underwear but I'll never understand the need for management type people to have daily meetings about all the work that we should be doing.

Only a few more hours and then I can go back to my little hotel room and relax. You know, if Dilbert were based on real life people then these are the people. :rolleyes:

Saw this in News of the Weird:

"Crime Really Doesn't Pay: In July 2005, News of the Weird reported Jared Gipson's extremely bad idea of trying to rob Blalock's Beauty College in Shreveport, La. The 20 students and teachers inside (almost all women) beat him to a pulp with curling irons, hair dryers, chairs, a table leg, and their fists (leaving him with 21 cuts that had to be stitched).

In March 2006, Gipson, 24, was sentenced for that attempted robbery, and as a recidivist, got 25 years in prison (and might have received more except that several of the women asked the judge for leniency). [Shreveport Times, 3-4-06]"

[krispykritter]

omg... I just found out that too, btw whats zulu time O_O? and why is this mentioned? and is there a GMT watch or sumthin?

Zulu time is the same thing as 'Grenditch Mean Time', its the just the military term for it so they don't need to say the whole thing 'Grenditch Mean Time'.

And any watch can be changed to GMT just change the time so it corresponds to the time zone there. As for an official clock that keeps GMT yes there is one, I think you can google it online and it will give you the exact time of GMT timezone.

[Auntie I]

Just FYI KrispyKritter, it's "Greenwich" not "Grenditch" and pronounced gren-itch.

[ArbainHestia]

And because of timezones you know, no matter what time it is, it's Happy Hour somewhere. :grin:

[Mordakai Slivermoon]

And because of timezones you know, no matter what time it is, it's Happy Hour somewhere. :grin:

That is correct!!! So if you were able to get into a plane and fly at a constant speed of 1000 miles per hour, it would always be happy hour. And with inflight refueling, you would never have to worry about running out of fuel.....

Eeeeew, Ottawa! POLITICIAN :huh:

Yup... that's St. Alban's, Bay d'Espoir (translated: Bay of Hope. Pronounced: Bay Despair… how’s that for butchered, ironic pronunciation?) :shocked:


Eeeeew, Ottawa! POLITICIAN :huh:
Yeah, but what can you do? I was almost driven off the road though by a motorcade once though! Crazy cop motorcycles driving over the yellow line! :angry: I think it was the President of Pakistan cause I heard on the news that he flew out that day. I was gonna sue him but then I though “Bah! That’s too much trouble. They probably don’t even have any good beer over there anyway!” :undecided:

That's what you get for giving Newfies a buncha french words to pronounce.

I dunno about Pakistani beer.
This site (http://www.beersoftheworld.com/) is interesting though. At least for finding a Beer of the Month club.

[ArbainHestia]

Wow... that beer of the month isn't really as expensive as I thought it would be. Only $335.40/month and you get a 12 pack with 4 different beers a month.

[Auntie I]

Oh no, what have I done.....Now Arbain will be too busy testing beers to tap kegs.

[Dark Calibur]

no I think arbain will be dedicated to his special stash, and Arbain, are you ever thinking about going commercialized? I bet you could make alot of money with, Arbain's special kegs

[Aretelio]

Oo, pictures of stuff. Here's the wonderful city of State College, PA! Go PSU!

Beaver Stadium's in the middle, there.

Here's a view of dowtown. Very quaint. Except for the evenings when 40,000 PSU students emerge from wherever to imbibe mass quantities of alcohol.

It's only $1.50 per month (for Bronze) and there's a thread in the OT forum if you don't have paypal. See my sig for more info. Too bad I didn't get commission for this! :grin: I could quit my job and live off new PALS :shocked:

I've seen that bunny before!

[Tsukasa Kusanagi]

He's an AIM bunny too. Actually, I plan on becoming a PAL soon, except I'm not too sure about sending money {I have no checks} through the mail ..hrm. Are all the Officers pals? I just noticed that.

Actually TRUE was first thought up & founded by PALs almost a year ago. I think during our first weeks 95% of TRUE were PALs.

*takes credit for TRUE* :grin:

I'm back from vacation, but I think I'm more exhausted than when I left.

How's that for not spam?

[Tsukasa Kusanagi]

Ding Dong the paper and class is dead! However, it killed my computer's CPU in the process. I'm on a 266 Mhz processor. Nothing runs ..
