    Playing Fez. It's awesome.

    It's not often that you have to learn multiple fictional languages to 100% a game, but you do here.

    I was just messing around with a webcam snapshot I had taken of myself (was sick of having a nearly 4 year old photo of me as profile photo in G+) and this is the end result:

    Huh, so you've got a beard these days? Out of curiosity, any chance of seeing the original, unaltered version?

    Sure, here it is:

    One thing I'm not sure is how it got to be smaller than the source, I don't recall resizing it. Ah well, it looks fine the size it is now.

    That looks pretty badass. I don't think I've ever seen a beard with a shaved strip down the front. Cool!

    I hope I don't shatter any illusions but that gap on my chin is all natural. It just doesn't grow there for some reason. Similar story on my lip, though I know the reason for that (an operation when I was a baby to fix a cleft lip).

    I seem to grow a natural soul patch! XD
    (well... it always grows there and the tache faster than the rest of my facial hair, which grows fairly slowly)

    Fuck off, Sir. You are a moron, who's life is so shit that you feel the need to cry for attention. Go to a party and get laid (I know that you're incapable of talking to women but still)! Do anything you like but just stay the hell away from these forums, loser.

    My favorite quote was "Watch the forum go to hell" Yeah, we've had worse trolls than him/her/it. Along with "Members you trust may turn" unless he/she/it can hack names, that isn't going to happen either.

    *note* If I somehow am "trolling" today, I was hacked as I would never troll this place. Thank you.

    So, YouTube deleted that movie I posted, because of a copyright claim from the company that isn't doing anything with the property to make a copyright claim even reasonable. They don't even sell it anymore, in any form.

    So, have the files themselves: http://www.mediafire.com/?g6enfb22bjqo8

    Sorry about the file format(WMV), I needed to have a format smaller than 200MB.

    Someones going on an "Friday the 13th trolling spree" and IP bans totally can't stop him.

    Which is why nothing has happened as of right now.

    I've seen it once, and I will never watch it again.
    Lets put it this way:
    If I was forced at gunpoint to watch this film, I would rather take the gun, eat the bullets, and pistol whip myself to death.

    "user" would imply sentient thought like that of a human, which I'm not sure applies here.

    On your 21st birthday, the usual recommendation is just "alcohol".

    And don't get killed.

    I could tell you my twenty-first birthday story and by comparison, EVERYTHING would seem better.

    Long story short: Nobody remembered so I did laundry and then sat in the kitchen and had the tiniest sip of rum that turned out to taste like drain cleaner.

    But if you have to have a better birthday than I did, I'd say get a fruity margarita (I'm partial to raspberry myself). Just remember to drink it slowly or you might sleep through the rest of your birthday.

    For my 21st birthday, I ended up going out to dinner at Outback (which everyone in my family dislikes, so how the hell did we end up there?), and while I was at the restaurant, I discovered that I'd cracked the top screen on my DS. I didn't get it in for repairs (or, as it turned out, replacement) until six months later. I didn't have my first drink until another 3-4 months after that. It was a Woodchuck, and it did not taste like apple cider as promised.

    So yeah, my 21st birthday was pretty crap too.

    Musing: Perhaps because there is nothing else on this day, it would be just as good to celebrate it today?

    Query: Are you referring to yourself as being HK-47 or is this a typographical error?

    Answer: Regrettably, meatbags are not accustomed to speaking in the advanced and certain terms of the Czerka Corporation HK series droids. Therefore, to speak in this manner at all times would be looked upon as... unorthodox.

    My 21st was lame as well.
    Didn't really get anything or drink anything.
    Same with my 18th really.
    I just get shafted. Probably because I'm too nice to moan about it.
    (my brothers had better landmark holidays.little brother got a PS3 and a HD TV, older brother got a car for his 18th , and better stuff than what I got on his 21st)

    I mean my best friend didn't even get me a 21st present, and that kinda sucks, (especially since I got him one AND a card too).

    For My 21st birthday I also went to Outback. I ended up getting a mixed drink and throwing it back up in the bathroom.

    Turning 21 next Monday. Need some alcohol recommendations.

    On my 21st birthday, my family (mom, dad, sister, bro-in-law) and I went to a restaurant called Bennigans, where they ordered multiple brands and shades of beer for me to sample. We also talked a bit about alcoholic beverages--for example, my brother-in-law said that lighter-colored beers (ie. lagers) are better the colder they are, while darker colored beers (ie. stouts) are better when closer to room temperature.

    What I can tell you from my experience is this:

    * Shiner Bock is my favorite beer;

    * "Light" beer (eg. Bud Light, Coors Light, Miller Light) does not have nearly as good a flavor as the regular stuff
    (I like Budweiser, but Bud Light is gross... though I admit Coors Light is tolerable);

    * I was/am a lightweight (the room started to spin after a time, and I was still sitting down.)


    Also, you might order a mixed-drink or two, just to try them out (eg. Margarita, Strawberry Daiquiri, Screwdriver, Long Island Iced Tea, or a Hurricane.) Be careful--drinks with hard liquor in them can yet you drunk fast, so pace yourself and don't go overboard. Your goal is to have a good experience, which you will be able to remember later, and also not need to throw up.

    oh, and if you eat something first, the alcohol will take longer to have an effect (it won't hit you as hard) but it will also take longer to metabolize and thus wear off.

    WHAT NOT TO DO: When my wife's best friend turned 21, she, her boyfriend, my wife and I went to a restaurant, where she ordered some alcoholic chocolate-dessert beverage. I tried it, and was unable to taste the alcohol at all. I mean, what was the point?? Get something you can tell is an adult drink, not something sugary which has alcohol in it for no apparent reason.
