[2010-11-21 01:12:44 UTC] It's late, I must bed, but I do not want to. HOW I SOLVE [2010-11-21 01:14:21 UTC] Tylenol PM. [2010-11-21 01:15:05 UTC] Don't do it unless you have at least eight hours to knock off though. [2010-11-21 01:15:15 UTC] Otherwise, I must extol the virtues of drinking. [2010-11-21 02:11:19 UTC] take a cold shower , [2010-11-21 02:18:17 UTC] Cold showers wake you up [2010-11-21 02:18:30 UTC] You might have guessed, but bed didn't really happen. [2010-11-21 02:23:19 UTC] Well there's no turning back now. [2010-11-21 02:23:24 UTC] I guess you'll have to be awake forever. [2010-11-21 02:24:08 UTC] Tried that, once. [2010-11-21 02:24:12 UTC] I got sleepy. [2010-11-21 02:24:34 UTC] I mean, half two is not, technically speaking, an ideal bedtime. [2010-11-21 02:24:42 UTC] Really, I should just go. [2010-11-21 02:25:02 UTC] CRAP, I left my room a mess. Not a cool thing to remember all of a sudden :( [2010-11-21 02:25:45 UTC] I once pulled a near all-nighter only to realize when I went to bed that there were no sheets. [2010-11-21 02:25:58 UTC] Because I had put them in the washing machine while taking a break. [2010-11-21 02:26:43 UTC] Aaaannnyway.... I also used to have insomnia I guess and went three or four days without sleeping. [2010-11-21 02:26:51 UTC] oh, that's not cool [2010-11-21 02:27:04 UTC] Three-four? [2010-11-21 02:27:08 UTC] That's impressive [2010-11-21 02:27:16 UTC] I was hallucinating pretty bad towards the end there. Had to skip out on going to a concert because I couldn't really see or determine what was real anymore. [2010-11-21 02:27:45 UTC] My record was 43 hours, at which point I collapsed on a sofa [2010-11-21 02:27:58 UTC] I know a guy who has sleep issues [2010-11-21 02:28:38 UTC] He went for a nap once, sleep patterns completely out-of-whack, thought he'd been asleep for about an hour when he woke up [2010-11-21 02:28:50 UTC] Turns out it was more like 25 hours [2010-11-21 02:29:16 UTC] I assume after your four-day-spree you were out for a while? [2010-11-21 02:29:34 UTC] I think aaronjer once did three days but he was playing a game from what I remember. Sleep came on him suddenly. He ran to his room and as soon he got through the door he passed out, collapsed on the floor. [2010-11-21 02:30:06 UTC] No, I wasn't out for very long. I don't sleep that well orginarily, usually like four to six hours at a stretch. Longest ever was thirteen. I think this was something like five. [2010-11-21 02:30:51 UTC] I once slept in until 5 pm [2010-11-21 02:30:56 UTC] Never again likes [2010-11-21 02:31:14 UTC] It is the definition of "wasted day" [2010-11-21 02:31:23 UTC] Oh man, there is paper everywhere [2010-11-21 02:31:51 UTC] Yeah, it's kind of weird how that works out. You can stay awake for as long as you like but it still feels like you're not accomplishing something if you wake up too late. [2010-11-21 02:32:44 UTC] It's not a nice feeling. I try to wake up no later than 11 ever, not that that always happens [2010-11-21 02:33:02 UTC] Well, I was awake before then this morning, but that was to turn off my alarm [2010-11-21 02:33:09 UTC] I promptly fell asleep again. [2010-11-21 02:33:30 UTC] There is even paper on the bed, how did this happen [2010-11-21 02:33:37 UTC] I used to set the limit at one, but these days it's closer to eleven. Sometimes I go 'til one on Saturday. [2010-11-21 02:34:07 UTC] Saturdays are a good day for it, I suppose [2010-11-21 02:34:17 UTC] Dude. I don't even understand what you're complaining about. I have so much paper in this room it's like a goddamn tree time travelled and then exploded. This makes sense in some way. [2010-11-21 02:34:35 UTC] Thing is I findit knocks the other days out of whack, which is why I'm awake now [2010-11-21 02:34:54 UTC] Thing is, I had paper in piles on the bookcase [2010-11-21 02:35:23 UTC] The bookcase now has very little paper, but the floor has lots. Where there were only a few piles there are now many small ones [2010-11-21 02:35:35 UTC] Yeah and mine is in piles in boxes, on shelves, in the armoire, all over the floor, next to the laptop. [2010-11-21 02:35:55 UTC] I've kept the desk clear :p [2010-11-21 02:36:25 UTC] Apart from... well, a surprising amount of crap, and, despairingly, a bottle. [2010-11-21 02:36:26 UTC] I've got takeout menus, bank statements, old papers, workshop notes, photocopies, test scores, applications, bills, receipts, collapsed tea boxes. God it's going to be a bitch to clean out this room. [2010-11-21 02:36:30 UTC] Empty, too :( [2010-11-21 02:37:05 UTC] An empty bottle is one of the saddest things known to man. [2010-11-21 02:37:15 UTC] After parents having to bury their children. [2010-11-21 02:37:16 UTC] ... [2010-11-21 02:37:30 UTC] While the paper I have is confined to the A4 variety it all is of different types of physics. [2010-11-21 02:37:40 UTC] Parents burying an empty bottle? [2010-11-21 02:38:06 UTC] No, I usually think of whiskey as more of a father figure. [2010-11-21 02:38:19 UTC] Are your papers at least somewhat organized by what they pertain to? [2010-11-21 02:38:56 UTC] Ye Gods, no [2010-11-21 02:39:15 UTC] Well that's no way. [2010-11-21 02:39:51 UTC] no way? [2010-11-21 02:40:31 UTC] no way to go about things? [2010-11-21 02:41:09 UTC] My papers are all over the goddamned place. They're like layers of leaves and sediment onf the floor of a desiduous forest. But I know more or less where everything is or might be. [2010-11-21 02:41:39 UTC] http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o96/dmb12345/IMAG0089.jpg [2010-11-21 02:41:58 UTC] There is no point having a phone if you don't tart around with it [2010-11-21 02:42:38 UTC] I will have great sorting success, but later [2010-11-21 02:44:06 UTC] Ha, that is still far better than my room. [2010-11-21 02:44:54 UTC] Fair enough [2010-11-21 02:45:11 UTC] The ominous pile next to the shoes will be the toughest [2010-11-21 02:45:28 UTC] As it is a large time period's worth of work in no order whatsoever [2010-11-21 02:46:21 UTC] And think of how accomplished you'll feel when that bullroar is all sorted through. [2010-11-21 02:47:23 UTC] I will, I know. Tomorrow will be busy [2010-11-21 02:47:32 UTC] Tomorrow never comes. [2010-11-21 02:47:51 UTC] That's true [2010-11-21 02:48:00 UTC] Technically speaking, later today will be very busy [2010-11-21 02:48:21 UTC] Perhaps you should rest up in preparation? [2010-11-21 02:48:35 UTC] Am doing :) [2010-11-21 02:48:49 UTC] The bed is now usable for that purpose [2010-11-21 02:49:19 UTC] well, am doing in between taking pointless pictures and finding interesting applications to help me do so, and all that. [2010-11-21 02:50:37 UTC] I would take pictures of how gratuitously messy my desk is but I live in a dead zone for phone service and would be unable to upload anything easily. [2010-11-21 02:51:15 UTC] Oh, I went by the cable-to-laptop method. I have the app now though, but will likely never use it. [2010-11-21 02:51:38 UTC] Anyway, goodnight, or whatever approximation appropriate to you local timezone happens to be. [2010-11-21 02:51:44 UTC] That didn't make sense. [2010-11-21 02:51:46 UTC] Bed. [2010-11-21 02:55:40 UTC] It's almost 10 pm! I'm about to eat dinner... [2010-11-21 03:00:45 UTC] I have seen Enjay's floor messiness firsthand. It is unreal. It crawls up the walls and hides all evidence of the original structure. Sometimes it contains a mailbox. [2010-11-21 03:01:48 UTC] Also, an important note: I sleep when I'm tired and wake up when I'm not. That is my only rule. Time of day is totally irrelevant. [2010-11-21 03:02:24 UTC] I think this is a good rule. [2010-11-21 03:02:37 UTC] It is a rule that I think I should like to live by. [2010-11-21 03:02:51 UTC] But then I wake up and think, "No, I think I'll stay here for a while." [2010-11-21 03:02:58 UTC] THEN TERRIBLE THINGS BEGIN TO OCCUR [2010-11-21 03:12:42 UTC] Well, there is always the problem of resleeping and having bizarre eyes-open world has gone mad dream sequences that leave you shuddering for hours and unable to believe you're truly awake until the next day. [2010-11-21 03:12:45 UTC] Those are bad. [2010-11-21 03:13:29 UTC] Managing to go to sleep when you're done sleeping is never a pleasant experience. Your brain is just up to far too much all at once. [2010-11-21 03:14:07 UTC] Sometimes it's an interesting experience though. So there's that. [2010-11-21 03:14:31 UTC] I nearly had that happen today but the things I was dreaming about ended up being kind of boring so it didn't matter. [2010-11-21 03:15:05 UTC] I did that yesterday and slept for nearly 24 hours because of it. I wasn't even awake for very long before that. [2010-11-21 03:15:13 UTC] Totally missed Friday dinner. I don't often do that. [2010-11-21 03:15:54 UTC] I am totally impressed by your sleeping skills. You sleep like a goddamned pro. It's really amazing. [2010-11-21 03:16:03 UTC] I could not be roused. People thought I was comatose. Little did they know that I could see and hear them, and that everything was horrifically warped and I was too afraid to respond. [2010-11-21 03:16:38 UTC] Or maybe I just dreamed that and nobody tried to wake me. [2010-11-21 03:16:42 UTC] I may never know. [2010-11-21 03:17:19 UTC] I managed to answer the phone while asleep, apparently. I have no memory of it but GaryJer says I answered and uttered nothing but madness for several seconds before hanging up. [2010-11-21 03:17:20 UTC] usually we try to call you and only get a few gurgles and then the line goes dead. [2010-11-21 03:17:40 UTC] its the whores hes killing [2010-11-21 03:18:44 UTC] Apparently Thanksgiving is coming up. What's even up with that. [2010-11-21 03:18:49 UTC] That wasn't a question. [2010-11-21 03:19:11 UTC] I thought it was like June a couple days ago. [2010-11-21 03:19:31 UTC] It was definitely August a couple days ago. June, I don't know so much. [2010-11-21 03:19:51 UTC] By the way I am going to be in Seattle this year for the Turkening. So Friday we should do something. [2010-11-21 03:20:07 UTC] This means family and forced socialization with people I have no interest in talking to... nnnnngggghhhh... [2010-11-21 03:20:25 UTC] :o [2010-11-21 03:20:40 UTC] Yes. Friday is a day that will be bursting with deeds. [2010-11-21 03:20:46 UTC] All the deeds will be ours. [2010-11-21 03:20:48 UTC] All of them. [2010-11-21 03:21:27 UTC] I'm disappointed because this year there will be fewer people worth talking to, since my aunt/uncle/cousins from California aren't coming up. But the food will be commendable. [2010-11-21 03:21:30 UTC] So many deeds. [2010-11-21 03:21:40 UTC] Is cloud so amazed that I don't want to talk to my family? It's not that bad really. I make an appearance and then promptly ignore everyone. [2010-11-21 03:22:11 UTC] As for your Thanksgiving, my advice to you is to not get raped. I know that this will be difficult, but really, try to resist. It's for your own good. [2010-11-21 03:22:19 UTC] It helps that I live in the house that hosts the event. I don't have to go anywhere and I can hide in the basement without being questioned. [2010-11-21 03:23:01 UTC] That's the best thing to do at any family event. [2010-11-21 03:23:24 UTC] Strangely enough, Tasha has a boyfriend now and yet has not slowed in the slightest in her attempts fornicate all over me. [2010-11-21 03:23:45 UTC] to fornicate... [2010-11-21 03:24:04 UTC] But that's old hat. Barely worth mentioning now. [2010-11-21 03:24:20 UTC] It lost it's magic long ago. [2010-11-21 03:24:49 UTC] It's so passe, I mean really, must we do this again, this tedious incest? [2010-11-21 03:25:36 UTC] When I go to dinner no one tries to rape me and I aim to keep it that way. [2010-11-21 03:25:37 UTC] incest is the best put your sister to the test [2010-11-21 03:25:42 UTC] Quit saying incest. It reminds me of Princess Maker 2. I don't want to get sucked into that again so soon. [2010-11-21 03:26:14 UTC] I don't have a sister. Only a unfathomable abyss-full of girl cousins.l [2010-11-21 03:26:23 UTC] Good god there's so many of those. [2010-11-21 03:26:38 UTC] oh snap! [2010-11-21 03:26:51 UTC] When you say Princess Maker, I always wonder if it's a customizing type thing, like RPG maker, or if it's like a king maker and the girl becomes a princess through a serious of horrible trials. [2010-11-21 03:26:58 UTC] I prefer to not know, for the record. [2010-11-21 03:27:23 UTC] I think the answer is "yes" anyway. [2010-11-21 03:27:41 UTC] The first two princess games are a unique genre made by Gainax. So... uhhh... guess whether or not there is loads of underage nudity! [2010-11-21 03:27:45 UTC] Way to go, Gainax! [2010-11-21 03:28:02 UTC] It's not porn, either. [2010-11-21 03:28:07 UTC] It's just... Gainax. [2010-11-21 03:28:21 UTC] There are probably oodles of nude....ls. [2010-11-21 03:28:27 UTC] Are there robots? [2010-11-21 03:28:30 UTC] no one better post vent info orim gona wreck shit up [2010-11-21 03:28:33 UTC] Not that I am aware of. [2010-11-21 03:29:25 UTC] Also I'm happy that an innovation in gaming was produced by Gainax and not Peter Molyneux. [2010-11-21 03:29:25 UTC] Gainax actually invented the... raise a thing and make it more powerful genre. Things like Monster Rancher, Princess Maker is sort of a precursor to things like Monster Rancher, but FAR more complicated. [2010-11-21 03:29:52 UTC] Gainax invented Pokemon? [2010-11-21 03:30:01 UTC] Yes. They did. [2010-11-21 03:30:29 UTC] I'm Impressed. I'm so impressed that I capitalized Impressed [2010-11-21 03:30:38 UTC] The first Princess Maker is vastly ahead of it's time. It's not even funny. It came out at the same time the NES was still big... and it has voice and like shit tons of colors. [2010-11-21 03:30:57 UTC] But it was an MSX game so it's next to impossible to find or play. [2010-11-21 03:31:36 UTC] I managed it, but there was little point, it's just Diet Princess Maker 2. [2010-11-21 03:31:52 UTC] It was just neat to see such an ancient game being so far ahead of everything else. [2010-11-21 03:32:16 UTC] Have I mentioned that Gainax is as brilliant as they are perverted? [2010-11-21 03:32:26 UTC] It doesn't surprise me. [2010-11-21 03:32:33 UTC] What does surprise me is the lack of robots. [2010-11-21 03:32:38 UTC] Soooo many 12-year old titties. [2010-11-21 03:33:06 UTC] It takes place in generic medieval time, although the God of War DOES look like a robot. [2010-11-21 03:33:11 UTC] But he's totally not a robot. [2010-11-21 03:33:19 UTC] Next thing I know you're going to tell me that there isn't a bunny costume in the wardrobe. [2010-11-21 03:34:08 UTC] Strangely, there's not. There really aren't any unusual costumes at all in the first game... the second game has many weird outfits, but none involve bunnies. [2010-11-21 03:34:58 UTC] Well, unless you count the 'not wearing anything' outfit in the first game. That is definitely not common to games. [2010-11-21 03:35:02 UTC] You are messing with my dear-held perceptions of Gainax. At least they're still brilliant perverts. [2010-11-21 03:35:55 UTC] The game is so funny in so many ways though. I was hex-editing the fuck out of it because I really wanted to know what caused different endings. [2010-11-21 03:36:34 UTC] Well, you beat it the normal way once and then hexxed it out the ears, correct? [2010-11-21 03:37:25 UTC] And apparently if you're nice to your daughter in general she'll pretty much marry you no matter what (even against your will) unless her faith is especially high. It's sort of implying that any daughter would want to fuck her dad if she wasn't a nun and he wasn't an asshole to her... Gainax needs help. [2010-11-21 03:37:37 UTC] Oh, I beat it normally like 20 times before hexing that shit. [2010-11-21 03:37:46 UTC] Good man [2010-11-21 03:37:59 UTC] excellent [2010-11-21 03:38:20 UTC] Wait, she'll marry you against your will? [2010-11-21 03:39:13 UTC] Seriously, if she becomes the Princess of Darkness via killing the devil and taking his place AND she really appreciates all the training you put her through to make her strong enough to accomplish such a feat she'll drag you down to hell and force you to marry her. [2010-11-21 03:39:19 UTC] Really. Fucking. Creepy. [2010-11-21 03:39:55 UTC] The father is a total badass too, and would have a good chance of defeating her... but... uh... I guess he'd rather be raped by his daughter than kill her. [2010-11-21 03:40:16 UTC] Kind of a no win. [2010-11-21 03:40:33 UTC] http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gainax%20bounce [2010-11-21 03:40:44 UTC] So you can raise your daughter to kill the devil and take his place. AWESOME [2010-11-21 03:42:12 UTC] Yeah, the game considers that to be a bad ending generally, but the gods actually tell you it is good from certain points of view. Your objective was to make her effective, happy, and live a long life. If she becomes the devil she's full of sadistic glee, rules the underworld for eternity and lives forever. Technically the best ending you can get. [2010-11-21 03:42:53 UTC] Is there one on the opposite end of the spectrum where she ascends into what is basically holy godhood? [2010-11-21 03:43:07 UTC] I smoke cigs. anyone else smoke here besides me ? [2010-11-21 03:43:53 UTC] The closest opposite there could be would either her becoming the ruling queen of your kingdom, which is probably the hardest ending to achieve, or becoming a hero like her father, which is pretty damn close to being as hard. [2010-11-21 03:44:03 UTC] i smoked my first blunt the other day [2010-11-21 03:44:16 UTC] ok zarko [2010-11-21 03:44:19 UTC] i onley smoked from the pipe. [2010-11-21 03:44:24 UTC] By your kingdom I mean the kingdom you live in, the father isn't a king. [2010-11-21 03:44:25 UTC] q_q [2010-11-21 03:44:38 UTC] cloud ur new name is zarko ,, ok [2010-11-21 03:44:57 UTC] i looekd that up on the interne [2010-11-21 03:45:00 UTC] t [2010-11-21 03:45:02 UTC] Yeah that's what I figured. [2010-11-21 03:45:07 UTC] The hero ending still involves lots of glee and blood flying around and devils being killed, she just doesn't replace them. [2010-11-21 03:45:09 UTC] Some random dude with a kid or something. [2010-11-21 03:45:19 UTC] no signification, so why? [2010-11-21 03:45:34 UTC] Blood you say? [2010-11-21 03:45:51 UTC] You're not some random dude, you saved the world by beating the crap out of the devil and the gods gave you your daughter as a... well... I don't know why they did that. [2010-11-21 03:46:01 UTC] Naturejay and arronjer , what are you guys talking about devils kings hell [2010-11-21 03:46:34 UTC] YOU SAVED THE WORLD! Here's your complimentary 10 year old girl. It's like... did they think you were a pedophile or something? Why else would you want some random girl? Orphans aren't exactly hard to come by in a war torn country. [2010-11-21 03:47:09 UTC] cloud you getting what there saying? [2010-11-21 03:47:13 UTC] This game is truly special. [2010-11-21 03:47:18 UTC] i mean zarko [2010-11-21 03:47:20 UTC] I guess they just want to give you something to do. [2010-11-21 03:47:26 UTC] hahahahahah [2010-11-21 03:47:39 UTC] i have read this for a wile [2010-11-21 03:47:46 UTC] There's never any explicit sexual content in it, though. Just nudity sometimes. Mostly at the beach. [2010-11-21 03:47:59 UTC] Well, except if she gets raped. That's a thing that can happen. [2010-11-21 03:48:01 UTC] i has reason to bleave that aj is drunk. [2010-11-21 03:48:07 UTC] I think there talking about a game.... or a book [2010-11-21 03:48:18 UTC] game [2010-11-21 03:48:21 UTC] Like how in River City Ransom when you have nudity in the sauna and also in the lobby of the sauna. [2010-11-21 03:48:23 UTC] aaronjer doesn't read! [2010-11-21 03:48:27 UTC] he aint drunk hes typein to good [2010-11-21 03:48:29 UTC] And aj isn't drunk. [2010-11-21 03:48:35 UTC] So what happen? [2010-11-21 03:48:36 UTC] SPRINKLES [2010-11-21 03:48:41 UTC] *lehgasp* [2010-11-21 03:49:02 UTC] here for the game and all the pussy that come with it [2010-11-21 03:49:22 UTC] nope only sausage here for now [2010-11-21 03:49:35 UTC] There's 3 special boss fights in the game you can run into while adventuring. If you lose the fight instead of beating her senseless they get all fushigi yuugi on her ass. [2010-11-21 03:49:40 UTC] Literally. [2010-11-21 03:49:59 UTC] aj what game are u talkin about u make it sound intresting [2010-11-21 03:50:14 UTC] With the disastrous emotionally scarring forming an opposing army fushigi yuugi results? [2010-11-21 03:50:32 UTC] BTW I still need to watch through all of that. I'm watching through Full Mtal Panic! right now. Aside. CONTINUE [2010-11-21 03:50:35 UTC] That part doesn't involve any nudity... but it's still extremely wrong... and ho boy, there are some disastrous results of that. [2010-11-21 03:51:25 UTC] assholes just cant say where watching anime [2010-11-21 03:51:29 UTC] Mostly that she is almost guaranteed to marry your butler, since... for some reason, he's the one that finds and saves her from continued rapes. [2010-11-21 03:51:50 UTC] he's the one that is raping her... [2010-11-21 03:52:01 UTC] Because we aren't watching anime and if you want to jam your enormous ass into this conversation without paying the fuck all of attention it's your own damned fault. [2010-11-21 03:52:17 UTC] Is the butler also a demon? [2010-11-21 03:52:17 UTC] And marrying the butler? That's just pathetic. I mean... come on! He's a butler! She could do better than that just by marrying the first bum she runs into on the street! [2010-11-21 03:52:20 UTC] !!! [2010-11-21 03:52:31 UTC] naturejay calm ur panties down [2010-11-21 03:52:45 UTC] Yes, the butler is a demon. I have NO idea why. He just is. He doesn't even hide it and nobody seems to care or mention it. [2010-11-21 03:52:46 UTC] MY PANTIES ARE THE CALMEST PANTIES YET KNOWN TO MAN [2010-11-21 03:52:48 UTC] Anyway. [2010-11-21 03:52:49 UTC] Also he's like half her size. [2010-11-21 03:52:59 UTC] When she's 10... [2010-11-21 03:53:07 UTC] Okay, I was just shooting in the dark about the whole butler thing but that's really funny [2010-11-21 03:53:44 UTC] As far as I can tell he is the only demon in the game that isn't plotting dark schemes or tempting people with sin. [2010-11-21 03:54:01 UTC] So he's about as small as Douglas TenNapel then. [2010-11-21 03:54:29 UTC] Demons never actually attack the daughter. They're afraid to, since the father is the one that beat the ever loving shit out of the devil himself and they fear retribution. [2010-11-21 03:54:40 UTC] If you somehow force them into combat they just run away. [2010-11-21 03:55:01 UTC] But that doesnt' stop them from trying to turn her evil. [2010-11-21 03:55:32 UTC] Also unicorns are assholes. [2010-11-21 03:55:37 UTC] And yet there's not really an evil scenario where you lose, per se, and she kills your or something, right? [2010-11-21 03:55:45 UTC] Well, they are haughty. [2010-11-21 03:56:16 UTC] She can die, I don't think you can die. She never truly hates you, she either loves you platonically, loves you incestuously, or doesn't care that you exist. [2010-11-21 03:57:37 UTC] Huh. [2010-11-21 03:58:41 UTC] fuck you aaronjer making me look at the dictionary [2010-11-21 03:59:12 UTC] It's really funny how the incest can sneak up on you. I mean, when she's like 11 and you talk to her she might say something like "When I grow up I wanna marry you!" which is mostly just adorable because she doesn't understand why that's not such a good idea and she just really like you... but then you realize she's 17 and still saying that and you're like... "Pumpkin, just a thought, maybe you should looks OUTSIDE the house and see if there's any boys you like" and then BAM! You wake up with naked daughter all over you and you're like "WTF" [2010-11-21 03:59:26 UTC] Then the gods hit you with the icky stick and yell at you. [2010-11-21 04:00:08 UTC] Does the game end there or what? [2010-11-21 04:00:37 UTC] When the game ends is when she gets married/doesn't and decides her profession/becomes the devil. [2010-11-21 04:01:11 UTC] Devil is a profession. [2010-11-21 04:01:29 UTC] She makes it look like so much fun I can't call it work. [2010-11-21 04:01:55 UTC] Well, I mean like is there a set timespan for all of these things to happen, you just wake up, she's x age, and bam. Sort of like how Harvest Moon forces an ending. [2010-11-21 04:01:59 UTC] It's more of a calling. [2010-11-21 04:02:09 UTC] Seriously, she's generally not a happy child, never satisfied with herself... unless she becomes the devil. She is VERY pleased when she's the devil. [2010-11-21 04:02:22 UTC] Yeah, it's a timespan, when she turns 18 shit gets real. [2010-11-21 04:03:00 UTC] Figures. [2010-11-21 04:03:12 UTC] The game would be kind of lame if it could go on indefinitely towards spinsterism. [2010-11-21 04:03:16 UTC] Wait, is that an ending? [2010-11-21 04:03:43 UTC] It's difficult to get her to be satisfied with body, but it actually CAN be done through the magic of telling a cat to make her taller and magically making her boobs bigger. I'm totally serious. But she still never thinks she good enough at whatever profession she's heading towards. [2010-11-21 04:04:06 UTC] Well, yeah, if she has absolutely no outstanding abilities she just never leaves home or gets married. [2010-11-21 04:04:31 UTC] But it still ends at 18. [2010-11-21 04:04:49 UTC] telling a cat to make her taller. Ha. [2010-11-21 04:04:51 UTC] And the gods yell at you for goofing off and hanging out at the beach all the time so you could watch her swim with no clothes on. [2010-11-21 04:05:10 UTC] Apparently that's not a profession? [2010-11-21 04:05:39 UTC] No, sea urchin is not a profession. [2010-11-21 04:05:57 UTC] Sea urchin is a calling. [2010-11-21 04:06:01 UTC] The funny thing is that the game is called Princess Maker. [2010-11-21 04:06:03 UTC] It shouldn't be. [2010-11-21 04:06:23 UTC] The only way she can be a princess is if she is the Princess of Darkness, and other than her dying that's the lowest score you can get. [2010-11-21 04:06:25 UTC] They've never been good at naming stuff, but who ever is? [2010-11-21 04:06:50 UTC] If she actually marries the prince she still doesn't become princess because the king abdicates his throne immediately and she becomes queen. [2010-11-21 04:06:57 UTC] Score?... this is just getting confusing. I was thinking of it along the lines of a fallout sort of karma thing. I guess that's a score. I don't know. [2010-11-21 04:07:15 UTC] Well she might have been a princess for a few nanoseconds there but it was only a means to an ends. [2010-11-21 04:07:25 UTC] The score is mostly based on the sum of her abilities. [2010-11-21 04:07:50 UTC] But you lose points for having a high sin stat, which needs to be pretty much maxed out to become the devil. [2010-11-21 04:08:24 UTC] Seems like apples and oranges to me. [2010-11-21 04:08:41 UTC] She gets sin by killing stuff... even undead and mindless things... or by being a total whore. [2010-11-21 04:09:39 UTC] Can she whore around and then kill the stuff that she's been whoring with? I won't even ask about the other way around. [2010-11-21 04:10:06 UTC] It's kinda funny, some dude will just show up and be all like "HAY! CAN I PUT PENIS IN UR DAUGHTER? ILL GIVE YOU MONEY!" when she's like 14... :/ [2010-11-21 04:10:17 UTC] And depending on her morals/sin she might go for it. [2010-11-21 04:10:41 UTC] So she decides, not you? [2010-11-21 04:11:02 UTC] I think you can tell the guy to go eat a dick, but if she doesn't want to do it you can't force her. [2010-11-21 04:11:47 UTC] Which is good, because that would be even more disturbing than her wanting to fuck her own father. [2010-11-21 04:12:03 UTC] Japannu [2010-11-21 04:13:03 UTC] It's especially funny if you train her really well and she becomes a hero like you AND marries you, and then you run off into foreign lands to kill demon, fuck each other, and pretend you're not related. [2010-11-21 04:14:02 UTC] That does sound hilarious. [2010-11-21 04:14:33 UTC] So, she is related to you even though the gods create her and she's already ten or something? [2010-11-21 04:14:50 UTC] In that case the gods can't hit you with the icky stick. They're like... wow! She's a total badass, and she's a really good person! Were not really sure what to say about all the inseminating you two are doing.... but... wow! Badass chica, yo! [2010-11-21 04:15:21 UTC] And that's even funnier. [2010-11-21 04:16:02 UTC] Well, does it really matter if they're blood related? You're the only father she's ever known. It's only like 5% less creepy if she's not blood related. [2010-11-21 04:17:17 UTC] Right right. I was just confused by the phrasing for a moment. [2010-11-21 04:17:20 UTC] Although the age of the father can actually be barely older than her. So it could be more like a big brother thing... which is MUCH less creepy than the alternative, even if still totally fucked up. [2010-11-21 04:17:33 UTC] is there a point with system_the_cloud ramdom posting? [2010-11-21 04:17:51 UTC] No, only the femdom posting. [2010-11-21 04:17:55 UTC] I don't know. [2010-11-21 04:18:13 UTC] Although when you spelled answers with a c that might have been the highlight of my week [2010-11-21 04:18:53 UTC] They're probably just trolling you not fully understanding whatever it is that you do. [2010-11-21 04:19:01 UTC] badum tsss [2010-11-21 04:19:28 UTC] aslong as i dont get banned i realey dont care. [2010-11-21 04:19:46 UTC] well...meh, just a lil bit. [2010-11-21 04:20:12 UTC] I think you're one of the least likely people to be banned. [2010-11-21 04:20:44 UTC] That is true. The only person less likely to get banned is SRAW, because the torment he causes people amuses me. [2010-11-21 04:20:51 UTC] Even I get banned sometimes. [2010-11-21 04:21:16 UTC] i saw that, didint you ban your self for fun? [2010-11-21 04:21:23 UTC] Also, I like how Down Rodeo is asking me why String Theory is retarded after saying it himself "has little in the way of experimentally verifiable predictions." [2010-11-21 04:21:41 UTC] I get mad at me sometimes. [2010-11-21 04:22:01 UTC] I was about to say, SRAW is the least likely to be banned. [2010-11-21 04:22:17 UTC] You know what something needs to have to be a theory? That thing DR said. You know what String 'Theory' doesn't have? That thing DR said. [2010-11-21 04:22:26 UTC] I understand why only because I understand aaronjer. [2010-11-21 04:22:34 UTC] Yup. [2010-11-21 04:23:03 UTC] i don't bleave in time travel [2010-11-21 04:23:03 UTC] SRAW has never actually done anything bad. Lots of people just get worked up over what he says because they're stupid. And it's funny! Yay for funny! [2010-11-21 04:23:15 UTC] yay! [2010-11-21 04:23:48 UTC] I wouldn't say that what he says is funny exactly. [2010-11-21 04:23:56 UTC] How people respond to what he says, that's funny. [2010-11-21 04:24:04 UTC] I mean, the String Theory people were on the television and they were all like, "HOORAY! OUR 'THEORY' CAN'T BE PROVEN OR DISPROVEN! WE MUST BE REALLY SMART!" and then I die inside. [2010-11-21 04:24:19 UTC] Yeah, that thing you said. [2010-11-21 04:24:26 UTC] SRAW is rarely the originator of the funny. [2010-11-21 04:24:35 UTC] But he provokes the funny masterfully. [2010-11-21 04:25:26 UTC] http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x302/dcwh/5ac8fd30_bb0f_dd9d.gif [2010-11-21 04:26:15 UTC] I think one of the few things to come out of xkcd was its commentary on string theory. [2010-11-21 04:26:21 UTC] I just had an awesome idea. Suppose all matter and energy is made of tiny, vibrating "strings". 'Okay. What would that imply?' I don't know. [2010-11-21 04:26:33 UTC] Yes, one of the few things, without any form of qulaification. [2010-11-21 04:27:00 UTC] Yeah, xkcd describes it well. [2010-11-21 04:27:41 UTC] I don't really think there's a point to it anyway. Reality is weird enough. [2010-11-21 04:28:08 UTC] There's a strangely large number of people that think making shit up that can't be proven or disproven is science. [2010-11-21 04:28:21 UTC] Put one clock above another identical clock and it will run faster. Physics sure is weird. [2010-11-21 04:28:42 UTC] Yeah, it's pretty much deranged. I try not to think about how deranged it is. [2010-11-21 04:28:45 UTC] Like that whole nullity thing with the dividing by zero that superjer was talking about at Shari's that one time? [2010-11-21 04:29:25 UTC] There are so *very* many observations that have resulted in technology that we have no explanation for. [2010-11-21 04:29:42 UTC] List them as fast as you can! [2010-11-21 04:29:53 UTC] Or as fast as you will. [2010-11-21 04:29:57 UTC] Whichever [2010-11-21 04:30:04 UTC] OH GOD! THE SPOT! I AM COMPLETELY COVERING IT! [2010-11-21 04:30:19 UTC] NOBODY CAN EVEN SEE THE SPOT! THEY CAN'T EVEN PROVE I'M ON IT! [2010-11-21 04:30:22 UTC] That's the first one,. [2010-11-21 04:31:12 UTC] There's a lot of things involving particles moving in predictable but arbitrary directions after having force applied to them that we have no real explanation for. [2010-11-21 04:31:17 UTC] It's just... what they do. [2010-11-21 04:31:33 UTC] Like how light is both a particle and a wave? [2010-11-21 04:31:57 UTC] Similar to that. But even more practical than that. [2010-11-21 04:32:43 UTC] Don't try to get me to state super specifics because the last time I read about it was like six years ago, but a lot of methods of redirecting electrons are seemingly arbitrary. [2010-11-21 04:33:50 UTC] Stuff along the lines of "Hay! If we put this electron between this positively charged thingy and this negatively charged thingy it should probably either sit still or go towards one of them!" NOPE! It goes THAT way! Prreeeeeooow! [2010-11-21 04:34:02 UTC] And then BAM! Technology! [2010-11-21 04:34:58 UTC] Right, I was looking for more examples of the tech and such. [2010-11-21 04:35:10 UTC] Or did I mean photons? Anyway, whatever, like I said, I read about it a long time ago and my memory is comparable to cuttlefish. [2010-11-21 04:35:11 UTC] But maybe you don't remember that? [2010-11-21 04:35:33 UTC] How does the memory of a cuttlefish compare to that of an octopus? [2010-11-21 04:35:57 UTC] Arbitrarily but predictably. [2010-11-21 04:36:24 UTC] If you ask SJams he would probably remember. Or you could ask google questions like 'technology we use but don't understand' [2010-11-21 04:36:27 UTC] That was the best kind of answer [2010-11-21 04:37:22 UTC] One of my favorites, although not resulting in techology, is the base heat of the universe. [2010-11-21 04:37:34 UTC] Anyway, I use a lot of things I don't understand. It doesn't bother me. [2010-11-21 04:37:36 UTC] Do tell. [2010-11-21 04:38:03 UTC] You'd think that a totally empty universe would be 0 kelvins. It's not. It's like 6 or something. I don't remember the exact number but all that matters is that it isn't zero. [2010-11-21 04:38:09 UTC] We have no fucking clue why. [2010-11-21 04:38:40 UTC] I like this [2010-11-21 04:39:11 UTC] Also sort of like how the universe was expanding at a continuous rate and then suddenly sped up at some point for reasons none of us can easily define? [2010-11-21 04:39:16 UTC] So apparently some small amount of heat just sort of happens for the lulz. [2010-11-21 04:40:34 UTC] Oh man, everything about how everything seems to be expanding is epically not understood. Popular science tries to make it sound like we get what the fuck, but we totally don't, we're even totally sure it IS expanding. [2010-11-21 04:40:56 UTC] But it probably is! :D [2010-11-21 04:41:46 UTC] I think if I ever got into any of the hard sciences, it would be astronomy, because it's basically one giant clusterfuck after another. [2010-11-21 04:42:04 UTC] I mean, we're mostly basing that conclusion on red shift, and that's pretty strong evidence, but I won't be convinced until we bounce some shit back and forth between distant stellar objects and detect an increasing distance in another way. [2010-11-21 04:43:58 UTC] I'm also really happy that there's also a blue shift and things are going to collide and continue to collide in spite of everything getting further away. [2010-11-21 04:44:01 UTC] My favorite astronomy is the scary astronomy. [2010-11-21 04:44:58 UTC] I don't even just mean the astronomy about terrifying stars/forces of destruction that would annihilate all life in a galaxy in one swell foop like gamma ray bursts... [2010-11-21 04:45:43 UTC] I like the stuff that nobody is comfortable talking about like the 5000 light year diameter dark spot in the sky that at first was believed to be empty space. [2010-11-21 04:45:55 UTC] Like heat death, big rip. how after a certain point in expansion we will never be able to reach anything that we see but are doomed to watch it slowly die? [2010-11-21 04:45:57 UTC] Then it was seen to be measurably increasing in size. [2010-11-21 04:46:11 UTC] Yes that seems to be important. [2010-11-21 04:46:25 UTC] Which means it's an object that absorbs all light and is moving DIRECTLY towards Earth. [2010-11-21 04:46:31 UTC] Although is till very far away. [2010-11-21 04:46:45 UTC] Also it's fucking huge. [2010-11-21 04:46:49 UTC] And moving towards us. [2010-11-21 04:46:59 UTC] I'm pretty sure it's the Dark Soul. [2010-11-21 04:47:10 UTC] Which is as good an explanation as any other anyone has given so far. [2010-11-21 04:47:14 UTC] One can hope. [2010-11-21 04:48:03 UTC] I would like to read more about this terrifying thing. [2010-11-21 04:48:39 UTC] I pretty much just said everything we know about it, all further information is just the basis for the conclusion that it is moving towards us. [2010-11-21 04:48:55 UTC] And the hope that it's not! :D [2010-11-21 04:49:25 UTC] I bet it's Galactus. [2010-11-21 04:49:30 UTC] It's probably not Galactus [2010-11-21 04:52:38 UTC] I'm putting my money on the Dark Soul, because if it's just some random gaseous thing it will either be too thin to fuck anything up (which would be boring) or we'll all die (which would also be boring) [2010-11-21 04:52:55 UTC] And we could all die at ANY SECOND from a gamma ray burst on top of that! YAY! [2010-11-21 04:53:49 UTC] Existence sure is horrifying. [2010-11-21 04:54:10 UTC] Or maybe it's that Marilith I told Sprinkles or Rockbomb... don't remember who, to put in their new computer to give it dark powers. [2010-11-21 04:55:47 UTC] I hope it's Lailat or Aurelia, because I know their weaknesses and I can get all the loot if they show up. [2010-11-21 04:57:40 UTC] I don't know what those last two are. [2010-11-21 04:58:18 UTC] Mariliths. [2010-11-21 04:59:29 UTC] OKAY! [2010-11-21 04:59:35 UTC] You know what they look like, even if you don't know you know. Mariliths in general I mean. [2010-11-21 05:00:02 UTC] The 'naga's' in Heroes 3 were actually and very obviously Mariliths and not nagas at all. [2010-11-21 05:00:13 UTC] It seems kind of weird in retrospect... FFI I mean... the four fiends, you've got Lich, and you've got Marilith, and Kraken, and Tiamat. Doesn't seem like it took a whole lot of imagination. [2010-11-21 05:00:45 UTC] That's because FF1 was stupid, and it will knock us all down. [2010-11-21 05:02:26 UTC] FFI was among the stupidest games made for its combat system, but for some reason early DW games with their stair and door commands pissed me off more. [2010-11-21 05:02:57 UTC] Anyway, what's weird is that they had a combat system in FF2 that was based completely around the use of skills and you gained experience only in that manner. [2010-11-21 05:03:03 UTC] Yeah. Those were also stupid. But DW at least had the decency of a generic plot, instead of a nonsensical and stupid plot. [2010-11-21 05:03:09 UTC] It was the only time an FF game ever used a system like that ever again. [2010-11-21 05:03:45 UTC] Yeah, I actually like the FF2 system, even if it was very easy to break and kind of unwieldy. [2010-11-21 05:05:09 UTC] It made grinding weird though. Although I was fond of a basic plot that involved nearly everything dying or getting destroyed. [2010-11-21 05:05:59 UTC] FF1 was so dumb. There was no motivation for killing the main villain. It's like... he's going back in time and repeating the same 1000 years over and over so he'll never die! OH NO! Wait a minute! We live in a time after he exists so he's not a threat to any of us! WHY ARE WE KILLING HIM I DON'T KNOW DUHUURRRRR! [2010-11-21 05:07:28 UTC] Garland goes and effectively erases himself from existence and that's not good enough for the heroes?! I mean, WTF?! Did they just want the xp or something? [2010-11-21 05:08:45 UTC] The plot twist of the first thing you kill having to be the last thing you kill was kind of funny though. [2010-11-21 05:10:34 UTC]
