    Tickets said Avengers would be on last night.




    It was NOT last night.


    Still, we have reserved IMAX 3D seating so I won't complain when I do see it.

    Where is everybody going?

    These forums seem much quieter/more inactive than usual, and it makes me wonder if people are hanging around somewhere else instead.
    I have been posting in the Walking Dead forums.

    The game actually is pretty darn good. They learned their lesson on Jurassic Park, and only have timed button QTEs in a few parts. The rest of the action comes from aiming a weapon at a zombie. Plus, it really is an adventure game this time. There's actually an inventory and inventory puzzles in the game. :D

    I've been spending boatloads of time with the dude... we only have another 10 days of living in the same city, so trying to make the most of it. When I'm not with him I'm working.

    Yeah, me and my exciting life hey. :p

    No. You yourself would think that you are normal and others would be too afraid to tell you. So if no one ever told you you are mad you just might be mad.

    Huh. But are the puzzles actually real puzzles?

    Oh, and in response to Chyron: Legend of Grimrock. I have reached Level 10, so don't expect to hear from me for awhile.

    Yeah, they're actually puzzles (unlike Jurassic Park), and there's an option to turn off the mode that holds your hand (unlike Back to the Future).

    You do have to think for the puzzles in this one, although I'll grant the fact the puzzles aren't that hard (but they are harder than the puzzles in Back to the Future). But, it's early days yet and I'm still betting Telltale learned from Back to the Future and Jurassic Park that they need to increase the puzzle difficulty as the episodes progress (they've already proven they have learned some lessons with the option to remove the screen-hogging hints and by keeping the QTE's to a minimum).

    And as for a minimal inventory, I wouldn't say that. At one point, I had seven items in my inventory (
    three food bars, two batteries, a band-aid, and a TV remote
    ). The episodes of Wallace & Gromit only had around that many items in the inventory (or less) at a time, and I wouldn't say Wallace & Gromit had a minimal inventory.

    Shoreditch, is that you? :p

    Hey Jedders, why were you never in London when I lived there? We could have sneered at hipsters behind their backs together, safe and smug in the knowledge of our superior coolness! At any rate, looks like it's still raining, which I can only imagine is the sky mourning my absence.

    Reminds me I need to go back to England. Think I'll take a trip as soon as the school year is over.

    Because you lived there? Dohohohoh!

    If you're ever back this side of the pond give me a heads up and we'll do something (can't go to PAX cos i'd to buy a car a lock of hours ago :() I can prolly score us tickets to a musical or something, my bro's in some society that can hook him up, gay fight club he says. Failing that, booze and funny accents!

    Also that's def Shoreditch, is it that obvious? :p Even the tramps round there are homeless ironically.

    I will do that! Regardless of the accompanying social activity, I've never met an Irishman I didn't enjoy getting plastered with. Even going to see a gay fight club sounds like rockin' good fun. :p

    SO. Finally got my living situation straightened out for next year's semester. Downgraded slightly but I'm at a better apartment on campus. Can't wait to find out what classes I'll be teaching.

    So I got a message back from the head of year.

    He was pretty supportive. Said to let him know of any updates within two weeks and he'll see what he can do on his end.
    Then he was trying to get across well that the ball is in my court as it were, so he doesn't want to do anything I would be uncomfortable with.

    My anxiety was acting up pretty bad today.
    I think it's a mix of exam pressure and just not knowing anyone on my module.
    So I kind of felt vulnerable and alone, (and a bit paranoid about my stuff I had to leave in the pile before the exam)

    I definitely felt the "butterflies" throughout most of the day.
    My chance of passing today was basically zero, but I couldn't help but worry about it still.

    Good thing I remembered to do some "relaxation" breaths I read about, that stopped me from freaking out over it at least.

    (I'm getting pretty good at using my iPhone as a internet browser! XD Tap typing with only one finger in bed too! XD)

    Well, I would've signed up for it.

    Those bottles are somewhat deceptive. That's 1 litre of Jameson, 2 litres of Patron.

    You know if they wanted to sell there product why not have a giant clock giving birth to a 40 year old Light Yagami on the box? That would grab peoples attentions!

    That'd be pretty bold.

    But it'd sure Dazzle the consumer.

    Seriously, why do laundry products have such daft names?

    On another note, I looked into the classroom next door the other day, and the lecturer was using Monkey island slides.

    I shared this on the Sam and Max art board, but figured it resonated with forumites enough to post it here as well.

    Android 16 was going to self destruct with a nuke and take Cell with him and Cell was visibly scared implying a nuke could kill him. So why didnt the army fire nukes at him!? They tried an attack on Cell and failed so why not break out the big guns!?

    They would be too slow.
    Cell would just see it coming, and either dodge or blow stuff up.
    You have to remember how strong and fast Android 16 actually is. Even compared to the Z fighters.

    Plus just imagine the political and societal implications of an army just launching nukes at Cell.

    Ends justifying the means, doesn't cover that I'm afraid.

    If anyone dropped the ball in that fight it was Vegeta and Goku.
    Vegeta being a stupid arrogant douchebag, and Goku being thick.
    (I would be very scared that our world's best protectors were two crazy man-childs! XD)

    Cell saga was when the series started getting stupid anyway.

    (GT being the worse. I know in a way there were kind of trying to put a bit of the original back into the Z, but it didn't really work without Toriyama's input)

    Solid Snake>Big Boss

    Snake learned to fight for what is right and in Philanthropy's words To let the world be. Big Boss learned that lesson from Snake and Big Boss him self said that if Snake was in his place the world would be a different place.
