It's just a by-product of perpetually looking down on my past self, and thinking highly of my current self.
This has me feeling the same way, but on a longer timeline. You're looking at the former "Pokelover13". I'm so glad I grew out of that one quickly. Luckily, that was when I first played Ocarina of Time, so my next alias was GuruGuru214, and I have yet to lose my fondness for it, going on ten years now.
Man, tacos in Colorado? If I lived in Colorado again, there'd be only one thing I'd want to eat, all day, every day. BBQ baby. I'd sit in my log cabin in the middles of the mountains and pine trees, and rock in my rocking chair with a rifle on my lap, then I'd go to my smokehouse for some fresh meat to barbecue in the middle of that fresh, snowy, pine-scented mountain air.
And then my gorgeous wife would come out wearing only an apron and we'd do things only the deer and the birds could see....WHILE EATING BBQ......droooooool......drooooooooooooooooool.
Just got back from my uncles funeral, he died on Saturday after a three year battle with his disease.
That said, funerals always bring out the best stories about the deceased, there was some mighty craic and the turnout was fantastic, a real celeration of the mans life. Also I didn't mess up my reading I had to do at the mass despite waking up this morning with the hiccups.
The first day it snows, the people goes nuts and closes EVERYTHING!
I just love how paranoid these people here are of snow.:p
pfft. Nothing closes here. Schools sometimes do if we get over a foot in one night. City needs time to grate it so the buses can actually get around safely.
On the day of my funeral, there will be an open bar. Funerals can be pretty dull sometimes, and I'd want everyone getting smashed on my account one last time.

That's what I want too. I would also want to pay a hearse to taxi them all home because it would be creepy awesome.
My coffin will be filled with boozes for people to drink. It'll be a big twist at the end where it is revealed that I was cremated and everyone has to drink MORE.

Sorry to hear that, Jedders. It can be the hardest thing to let someone go, even when they've had a long hard struggle. I know what you mean about funerals though. I think the Irish definitely approach them the right way... a time to mourn someone's passing, but also to celebrate a life well lived.

This. I can't believe I forgot to express my deepest condolences in my post about my boozey funeral. *brofist*
I'd also like to give my condolences. I apologise for commenting on one post while ignoring the more sincere one. I can be a jerk on the forums, but I do it in fun and expect the same in return. When things get serious I do try my best to be a good, helpful person... so yes, I do actually feel bad about it. I'm glad the funeral went well and by the sounds of it, I'm sure your uncle would've been quite happy and proud with/about it.

And that your remains have been in the drinks the whole time!
My grave will have some kind of spring system with motion sensing deployment so when people walk by, my body will be lifted out of the grave and a recording will play "BLOOGAH BLOOGAH BLOOGAH!" and then I be lowered back down for the next person.
I just realised I could use my 360 Band Hero and Rock Band portable drums as a make shift MIDI drum kit.
Maybe one day I should try to set that up. Could be fun to mess around with.
EDIT: Also found out that the games take into account each other's drums and change the drum track accordingly, which I was worried about.
Full 360 compatibility across the board is a great thing!

How did I miss this post?! I feel very insensitive now. I hope I didn't offend you in any way. My sincere condolences on your loss.
Well... Anyone who lives near San Fran or is looking to move there need an awesome roommate?
I live near San Fran...but I'm most likely moving elsewhere at the end of the year...and I already have three roommates. But there's tons of cool people here. Actually, I recently heard about a roommate advertisement on Craigslist where one of the qualifications was that you needed to play DnD. So you could totally try for that one if it's still there.

You really are on a mission to be the worlds most irritating man, aren't you?

Sorry dude. I'm in a similar situation, except that my uncle won't have a funeral. Instead, his final wish was to have his ashes spread on Pikes Peak, so that's where I'll be going this summer. Also, Tom, you are amazing.

Where will everyone PISS then? Well, I guess the grave/jar is a good a place as any.

I'm sorry to hear that friend. All you can do is enjoy the time you have left with them and regret nothing.
Pikes Peak looks like a beautiful resting place, i'm sure he'll be at peace there when the time comes.
Study: Five out of six Invader Zim fangirls are perfectly fine with account hacking used to post derogatory statements, as long as said person that was hacked has made fun of them in some way.

Currently finishing up my six grad school applications. I've finished one so far, halfway through the second. If I can finish within the next hour or so, I'm giving myself the rest of the night off as a reward.

My folks REALLY want me to move out (I'm 18, not a crazy stay-at-home-mooch) so I'm officially shopping for an apartment, and I'd rather move to the place I've always wanted to live now then try to do in later in life when I'm strapped down. I figured I'd ask around here where I know/trust/like everybody enough to be more comfortable. But cool thanks. I don't play D'n'D though. I think Guru and company may remember what happened last time I tried.

Seriously, though- anyone know of some good BBQ in the San Diego area?
I... I think I just trolled TomP....? Ooops...
Anyway, my Portal cookie cutters are on their way... time to make the most awesome kickass Christmas cookies for my friends back East.

Only if your coffin is delivered in the back of a mini.
Hey congrats Friar.

Even if I can't spell that word correctly, the message stays the same.
And that your remains have been in the drinks the whole time!
But seriously, all I know is that I want my tombstone to say something funny, so people will feel guilty after looking at my grave.
Maybe one day I should try to set that up. Could be fun to mess around with.

That was the amusing part.
Piss trough.
or the empties.
Wait, so you'll be in MY neck of the woods?
... You spelled "awesome" wrong.
