So...

So I'm playing the Civilization board game with my family right?
And my brother, who is fanatical about cinnamon invests all of his money, I mean all of it, into an attacking army composed of 18 units to conquer my lone cinnamon city up north. Now I'm panicking. I have just enough to fight him, but it would bankrupt me as well. So I'm thinking, and then it hits me.

He just spent all his money!

He's gathered all of his forces up in a basicly deserted area, and left his main cities defensless, and he's spent all his money.

So I pass. Next turn I'll invest a fair share of my money into an invasion fleet, and from there shatter his empire. Oh yeah, it's gonna be good.

Don't know why I really typed this, just felt like it.

There's a Civilization board game?! I thought that it was only online?

That's a really stupid move on his part.

You play with cinnamon? What the fuck?

:P VERY bad move on his part.

I have Civ 2, the test of time, on my PC. I like the Sci-Fi and Fantasy based scenarios. ...only ever beat the Sci-fi mode though...And I had only about 5 turns left before the game ended.

The regular fantasy game isn't hard to beat. You play as the Stygians, and get Barrow Wights. Then you kick everyone else's asses. Be sure to kill off the Goblins before they put too many tunnels to Hel down, and you've got a high production, very defensible base of operations in Hel.

Oh, and kill the Elves fast too. Those trees suck ass.

Screw You Shit Hole Job!

.....I mean *ahem*...after looking for a solid two-three months I may finally be able to quit my shit hole of a job I have to work at the Mount Carmel hospitals.

"Mount Carmel Application forwarded to hiring manager"

HELL YEAH! Sorry I'm just a little excited about leaving kroger and finally being able to say fuck you to some of my supervisors...well just Bernadette because she's a cow.

Here's a strange question. Look at your finger nails. Do they rest on the finger or do they extend past the finger?

Most of my nails rest on the fingers, but my left ring finger nail extends past the finger, and it really screws me up when I'm bowling. I always have to cut it before bowling and go into the pink of the nail.

*looks at hand*
What fingernails?
I'm pretty sure I'm just not even going to have fingers anymore by the time I'm 30, that's how badly I bite them.

I can't stand people who bite their fingernails, it's so disgusting.

I can't say how disappointed I am. I was gone for a few days, and when I come back, nothing exciting has happened. And to think, I dreamed of AGN for nothing.

Oh yeah. My fingernails are kind of in between. They sort of rest on the finger, but they are sort of propped up a little.

Everything that has happened has been in Think Tank.

I used to bite my nails as a kid. My problem was, if a nail looked "funny" (like oddly pointed or something) I would want to bite it, and it would just make it worse, so I'd bite it again, and so on. Eventually, I discovered nail clippers, and those cured my biting habit.

I relate to that perfectly, except for one thing. When I discovered nail clippers, that didn't cure the habit, I just started compulsively clipping my nail rather than biting them. Then my girlfriend gave me a swiss army knife for my birthday and now I cut not only my nails, but the skin around them. I tell you, some day I'm just gonna cut off my fingers.
Also, I saw the words "Think Tank" in phattonez' post and thought it said "Star Trek". I'm so lame.

I lost the game.

Well, I clip compulsively too sometimes, but I was cured of the biting habit per se. So I just replaced one habit with another. If I notice something "wrong" with my nails and have no access to clippers, it often bothers me all day until I can get home.

MoonCheese? Don't you know that the set was made of plastic?

Oh my god, you're me. I lost my knife for a week once. I was a wreck. My nails started growing all lopsided, I could feel them sticking out, it was awful. Heck, I go nuts if I lose my knife for two hours.

EDIT: Ok, so it's almost 4:30 AM, and I just noticed the strangest thing. Ok, so I've noticed it before, but it just hit me again. I almost never go to bed before 5, and there are people who wake up at this time. I mean, Monday isn't quite over for me yet, and some people's Tuesdays are just starting. That blows my mind. Especially when I realize that if it weren't for classes, I'd have absolutely no concept of what day it is. Sometimes I go to bed at like 8 in the morning, after eating breakfast. It's like, it's Monday, then I eat breakfast Tuesday morning, then I go bed, I wake up 6 hours later, what day is it now? Without classes I'd have no clue. Then sometimes I take naps in the afternoon, or I go to bed early and wake up at 3AM, when usually I'd not have gone to bed yet. I need to get a friggin' sleep schedule.

^^ Yeah. I am normally up at 5 AM to get ready for work, but this week I am off.

:P I'm also a compulsive finger clipper. I like my nails REALLY short. ...And at least now I save my teeth.

andabout Civ 2...>_> I find that the races are terribly unbalanced. Humans, elves and infidels start out on thesurface, with no special access to other worlds. Merfolk get the ocean to themselves, since no other race can build cities down there. the Buteo can ONLY travel and build cities in the clouds, and on land (and the clouds suck. Almost nothing worth having up there). And so on. >_> I prefer the merfolk. you get unique acess to the ocean floor, which is chock full of resources.

-_- My brother does that too, Russadwan... He's literally got claws.

*shivers*

My brother has normal nails except for one abnormally long one on his big toe. It makes sparring with him a bitch.

I've played Civ 2, and I don't remember there being different races. Was this some kind of mod or expansion pack? Or not the game I'm thinking of? I've played Sid Meier's Civilization series, but not the Call to Power series (which was also called "Civilization" for a while).

Okay, so I wake up literally 7 minutes before school begins today, so I quickly grab my clothes, deodorant, keys, and wallet, then I rush to school. In a blizzard. (No, I didn't even brush my teeth or pee - I end up emptying my reservoir at 3:30.) So then I do this perfect skid on the school's main road into the parking lot (it was amazing, seriously, just like it was out of a movie). I make my own parking spot, run into school, and find that I'm three minutes late. Come lunch, I realize I forgot my wallet in my car.

I hate these kinds of days.

Woo, I just order a Stromboli chock full of meats and cheese, also two orders of mozzarella sticks, and some nacho cheese fries. Gotta go pick it up in about five minutes. Then Sute and I can chow down whilst blasting zombies Umbrella Chronicles style. What a night. 😃

[and the best part, this meal is free, because my bank gave me a $25 gift card for getting Sute a checking account. Oooohh yeeah. *plays Brawl's Pok�mon Red & Blue's Route 1 music*]

Sounds like your day was "slightly" better than mine. :unhappy: Ooh, and I do like the Route 1 music.

Route 1 is nice, but I'm more of a Sonic Angel Island fan right now. Dialga/Palkia Battle is pretty good as well.
