So long as you got through the first season, you got all the ending you need, in Death Note.

And I can't believe there were people on Imgur who downvoted me for saying that.
 
That's not necessarily a bad thing--how far did you get before you quit?
Well I stopped watching around when Kira first gave up the Death Note, but that was only because I missed two weeks cos I was on vacation, while intending to get back into it. Then I saw a top ten list with the ending and lost all interest.

Don't worry about the ending; it's a shitty ending. Keep watching and stop at 25. What happens through then is still good, and the ending has no relevance for it.

I haven't met a game yet that didn't get repetitive despite the story. I mean how many times can you shoot a bad guy in the face or walk through yet another brown drab dungeon full of undead Vikings before it just feels like you're a cog?

Skyrim's not exactly a story-driven game.

Azura's Wrath sounds up your ally. Each scenario is different and it's only 6 hours long. It's so short, in fact, that the ending to the game is DLC.
 
WARNING. Gross post!

I have been constipated. Something about how big the baby is and stealing all my nutrients and I have had to take iron supplements so that doesn't help. I finally just pooped. It felt wonderful at first but now I am dizzy and my heart is racing and I feel like I might fall down.

I do not want to go to the hospital for taking a hard shit.

The pregnancy SUCKS.
 
Wasn't she due a week ago? (I know, due dates mean nothing.) But if you're going into 41 weeks, don't they usually recommend getting together with a doctor and serving her an eviction notice?

EDIT: Whoops! I read your Rant post after I wrote this. Asked and answered. ;)

Indeed. I am now on an induction list but I am 'low priority'.
 
In other news, Jet is some kind of MineCraft psychopath.

He had made a Mcdonalds. A pretty nice one too! It has a sign and everything.

Except when you walk towards the counter a trap door opens up and drops you into a pit of zombies.
 
That sounds like an interesting theme.

Cary has built himself a redstone-powered railroad.
He also burned down his docks with poured lava, so read into that what you will.

I feel like I should highlgiht other things Jet had made in Minecraft because I just never know what I am going to come down stairs to see.

I wish I could do screen shots but he plays on PS3.

Lessee we have Slobbertooth, from Skylanders:

The Johnson Geocenter, a favorite spot of his (I had to help with this one, it was a difficult build):

A Swiss Chalet (I dunno):

A lgiht house of his own design, a rocket ship that has nether rack on fire at the bottom so it always looks like it is blasting off, a green house and 'the golem farm' which...well...it's a pen of golems?

Yeah, Wasabi's hubby set us up with one on the Halforums minecraft server. It's pretty gruesome as it involves plummeting 60 meters to their death, constantly, but it's a literal river of neverending free iron.

That made me think of the infamous Dwarf Fortress mermaid bone farm.

My husband would love it. If you ever get a chance (I know you're about to have your hands full so I'm not expecting it any time soon) please get a screenshot of it.
 
Has anyone ever gone to like a...ginormous party? Like over 100 people all-drinking-and-loud-music-and-late-into-the-night kind of party?

Cause I got invited to one and I've never been. Every party I've ever been to has been a rather small affair, ten people tops. What should I expect? I don't even know what to prepare for...? And it's a costume party, so there's that. (Probably gonna wear Cheshire Cat.)

I just don't know about this. :S

Really, how would the experience be all that different from a Con where there are less degrees of separation between you and the other attendees?

A local theater group is putting on a performance of Shrek. When I was taking the production paperwork to the guy who I'm getting to cut the advertisment, I handed it to him with a glassy, unfocused stare and said "Shrek is love. Shrek is life."

Unfortunately he obviously didn't understand the reference. So I felt obligated to warn him that if he didn't get the joke, he probably shouldn't google it.

Because in my experience, no one in the convention is drunk.

I know what to expect when it comes to space, what I'm unsure of is behavior, especially since con's have strict rules. Parties? Not so much.
 
I'm no party goer, so this is all based on conjecture.
Imagine a convention, but with more physical contact (both accidental and "accidental"), less inhibitions, and no friendly staff to keep things sane.

Admittedly, the two biggest parties I ever attended were (A) a work function - didn't stop a woman twice my age (I was 20) from getting drunk and hitting on me, but other than that people kinda behaved themselves because the bosses were right there.... and (B) a party I threw myself my senior year in high school when my parents went out of town for a week... we estimated ~75 attendees. That one... got kinda out of hand. There was lot of cleanup work. There was some dancing on tables and we got beer on just about everything, including some of my father's documents that then had to be thrown out and when he went looking for them a month later I said I spilled soda on them and threw them out because, while being an uncharacteristically stupid thing for me to have done, that was better than what really happened. There are a lot of stories from that night that would take too long to go into, but as far as recommendations go, I guess the lessons I learned from that night are..

1) Keep an eye on the keg so nobody steals the tap
2) If somebody steals the tap you can probably still milk a couple pitchers out of the keg by putting it upside down on two chairs with a gap between them and sticking a dowel where the tap goes.
3) Beer will get everywhere.
4) Clean beer up before it dries, on any surface. Caramelized beer is a fair amount of work to scrub off of a surface the next morning.
5) If you're making out with a girl on the floor, try not to roll over on top of your passed out friend.
6) If you are the passed out friend, awoken rudely by being rolled over onto, you can probably sneak away without being noticed.
7) But check your shoes first in case asshole token sober mormon friend tied your shoelaces together while you were passed out.
8) Try not to hit your head on a stucco wall as you fall... those muddy bastards are like horror house knife walls.
9) Rug doctors are surprisingly affordable to rent and quite effective.
10) No matter how obvious it sounds, don't try to melt a broken decorative candle back into one piece. It won't work.

... you know, I don't think much of that applies to what you're doing.
 
I will be the token sober friend! :D (I don't drink.)

I just feel like I need to take a bunch of pictures and document my experience, since maybe, you know taking a guess here, most everyone on here aren't big party goers.
