If I were a weaker man, I could take advantage of the previous conversation to post a picture of my console shelf yet again. Instead, I'll just post this.
Believe it or not, I had no intention of doing this.
Well, shit. Right after I took the picture, I unhooked the splitter and tried just using the TV on the right. Then it started to freak out and stopped accepting the video signal.
The reason this happened was because I had to take the TV out of my sister's room because the one in here was refusing to turn on. It was willing to turn on after I unplugged and replugged it, but now it's acting up again.
I think the above is a tiny bit depressing towards the person. I think changing it to 'added any friends' would make more sense. I think the above is a tiny bit depressing towards the person. I think changing it to 'added any friends' would make more sense.
A happy frakkin birthday to our very own Alcoremortis! May the Immortal and Eternal Queen of Halloween bring swift death to her cowering enemies and reign for a thousand eons! Congrapulations on your escape from the womb!
Hey Pants, you stole my womb line...(snicker snicker) Also, Happy Birthday to Alcoremortis, may you cheat death at any sort of games you two play for years and years to come.
For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to go out tonight, so I did. For less than two hours. I went to three pubs, had three pints and went home. I need to find what part of myself thought that was a good idea 'cos I'm gonna kill it. I hate going out by myself as I just stand/sit there and drink my pint far too quickly and I just feel like a sad loser out alone on a Friday night. I mean what was I hoping for, that some woman would take pity on me and at least try to talk to me. Honestly yes, that's what I was hoping for. But hell I hardly talk to anyone when I'm out, even with my friends if I'm out with them. Bah, I'm pathetic.

Dude. Get a wingman! Or do like me when I go out alone. Get super friendly with your bartender and bar regulars so you'll always know someone. Also, stay til things are getting late and people are more friendly. Find a girl at the bar, offer her a drink. And don't just limit yourself talking to girls. Talk to a guy at the bar you see often, and network! Find an in with his friends and girls contacts. Also, always remember to sharpen up your look. Doing be afraid to peacock. Stand out! Always make sure if you're going to brush a girl casually that you do so along the left elbow, and make sure to incorporate one piece of red clothing into your outfit, the universal color of power and sex. Also, make sure you take a confident stance. Make sure you stand out as the bolder man in the room. Also, don't talk directly to the girl you war, but to her friends. Remember, sell yourself! Confidence is key. Also, don't compliment her looks. Compliment anything else. Her humor, her intelligence, etc. Also, drop that money if you need to. Shots? Buy that round. Remember, nonstop confidence.

Great. Now I just need to change just about every aspect of my personality. All that sounds great in theory but I'm not sure it would work for me. The bar scene just doesn't really suit me really, and I don't think there's any point in kidding myself that I could do any better than I did tonight.

I think you have to decide what type of girl you would like to meet up with. If you don't particularly like the bar scene, then maybe the girls that show up at bars wouldn't be your match in the first place. I would suggest going somewhere that you would feel more comfortable, be it a coffee shop or a bookstore or an internet cafe and try there instead.
I know that I would probably feel extremely uncomfortable talking to random people in a bar but in a bookstore, I could keep talking for hours. It's all about the location.

True enough but there is a distinct lack of bookshops, coffee shops and the like where I live, but there are a lot of pubs! And besides, I'm pretty uncomfortable talking to random people in any location and/or situation. Thinking about it, I can only really guess but what I feel would be the best social thing for me to meet new random people would be a science fiction or gaming convention of some sort. But I lack the funds to go to the ones I would really like to go to. Hell I lack the funds to leave my town any time I want.

Well, you seem plenty talkative on the internet. Maybe that's a good starting place. I mean, real life is just like the internet except that people give you strange looks when you take a stack of photographs out of your pocket and use them to demonstrate your current emotion.

Does this one work? The other one was better...a bit more of a close up.

I don't believe you. I think you planned this from day one.
...I'm watching you...

I finaly have my copy of Sailor Moon Manga! (01)
Actually I'm the Barney of this duo.
Are you awesome?
In my case it would be absolutely appropriate.
Catwoman is Dead Sexy in Batman: Arkham City.
I haven't felt this empty since I was eleven.
*kneels down*
Because I just have that sort of influence with people.
An unusual thing to say, but even though I don't like the Spyro re-design the idea of the game is fantastic.
Sure its kids stuff now, but why not expand that to other types of games.
Imagine a Warhammer game where you could place your figurines on a small field and be able to use those units ingame, and online.
or a subbuteo-style footballers that can be put into a football game as your own team.
I'd love a fighting RPG-styled game like Final Fantasy Dissidia that used figurines.
Now THAT would be killer!
Pic not related to anything. It just needed to be posted.

It really did. You might be onto something, coolsome.

To be honest I was shocked it hasn't been posted in TTG before now.

It must be my dignified demeanor and over all gravity that bestows this impression upon my form.
