    My god.
    I just played Depression Quest.
    I'm almost in tears.It hit me harder than I expected.
    I guess because I'm in a similar situation myself, I related to it more.

    Then again, I was almost in tears when I watched Wreck it Ralph too! XD
    (It was just so goddamn magical :,))

    This doesn't count as Valentine's Day... this is Recruitment Day, the day where all starving grad students get to go out and eat fancy food and booze on the university tab under the pretense of encouraging naive prospectives to sign away their every waking moment!

    (I kid, I kid... you sign away the sleeping moments, too)

    Valentine's Day doesn't mean much to me. I just expect my guy to be nice and buy things all through the year. :p

    I wish more people thought this way.

    I has best boyfriend. He got me Batman for Valentines Day. Your boyfriend, on the other hand, did not get you Batman for Valentine's Day.

    He wrote a pretty good poem to go with it too!

    My boyfriendo wrote me a creepypasta and got me a corresponding cart of Super Mario World as well as a live Hellebore! Also steak dinner.

    Should we be good to each other every day? Of course. That doesn't make Valentines a fun excuse to be extravagant. :)

    Why do I have to write the scary bits right before going to bed?
    I could hear it. I didn’t even know what it was, only that it talked to me. It sounded like one person and many people at the same time, constantly whispering, repeating my name. At first it began softly, but it gradually got louder. I knew I was awake, it didn’t have this typical haze a dream mostly has.

    Slowly, strange faces in the distant dark appeared, just vaguely, like figments of my imagination. I looked besides me, and I could see Diana was awake as well, plugging her ears with her fingers. She could hear it too, or at least hear something.

    “Edgar!” she screamed. “Edgar, turn on the lights!”

    As I did, the voices stopped.

    “What the hell was that?” I said.

    “Honestly,” Diana said, “I have no clue, all I know is that this is bad.”

    I got out of bed, and looked out the window. Everything was fine outside, when one of the street lights began to flicker, and for a split second, I could see a humanoid standing on the streets, not entirely human, unearthly even. It startled me, and me startling startled Diana.

    “I think I saw something on the streets,” I said.

    “I figured that out,” she said in a snarky way. “What was it?”

    “I don’t know. It didn’t seem human. I don’t think I even want to know what was, but whatever it was, it’s gone.”

    “Where did it go?”

    “I have no idea, it just appeared when the street lights began to flicker, and was gone right after that.”

    After that Edgar drags the television set with a video game console to the bedroom because Diana wants to play light-hearted video games, and Edgar is looking for pictures of cats on his tablet.

    My boyfriend doesn't exist.

    Nor does my girlfriend for that matter

    I would probably be a bit happier if either of these were false.

    Don't slip and fall down the stairs.

    There was something else I wanted to say... but I can't remember it.

    Geez guys, take care of yourselves! Guru, I'm glad the fall didn't bang you up too much.

    I'm going snowboarding this weekend... well I say "snowboarding", but I really mean "making a fool of myself and trying not to bruise up too badly".

    I've only been once before. The girl I started learning with (who was WAY less unco than me) broke her wrist on her 2nd trip and now has a 2.5-inch metal pin in it forever. Between that and the accidents here, hot tub is starting to sound like an appealing alternative.

    Yes please.

    Also, don't know if I should be happy or fortunate to be proven wrong, but I always thought it was odd that there wasn't any rule 34 of Ralph saying his catch phrase.

    And no, I'm not going to link it.

    Yeah, railing...that sure would be nice to have. Despite all the home improvement we've been doing, we haven't gotten to that particular project yet.

    Dayum. At least you're okay though. Sorry I wasn't really there last night. Prospective students visiting = drinking. As I am not much of a drinker, it kinda just put me right to sleep the moment the party ended.

    Fark, my novel is almost literally killing me. I can't sleep because I have to work on it, even when I'm not working on it, due to me being afraid that I might get new ideas I would forget the next day-F this S, I'm going to bed.

    I wasn't on for long anyway. Shortly after the hangout started, my sister texted me and told me to stop talking and go to bed.

    It's okay. Guru was just screaming in horrifying pain, left alone by his friends. Nothing major.

    Who is richer Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne?
    From Superherohype as of '07:
    Tony Stark is currently the 36th wealthiest man in the world in Marvel's Universe, putting him at 15 billion.

    This is mentioned by Nick Fury in Iron Man #7. He was worth around 300 billion. The Extremis arc paints him as the second wealthiest man in America. He gave it all away, and got a new fortune later, putting him at his current state.

    The real life 36th richest person in the world has 7 billion dollars.

    However, Forbes lists them as:

    7 Wayne, Bruce $6.8 billion 32 Gotham City, U.S.A. Inheritance, Defense

    8 Stark, Anthony $3.0 billion 35 New York, New York Defense


    So Bruce is richer.

    Tony is wildly inconsistent, at one point stating his armor costs from 6 to 7 billion.

    Can't do most of these, but I can say that Hulk would beat Spider-Man through attrition. Because there's pretty much nothing that Spidey can do to hurt him. Even if Hulk just sat there and took everything he could give without, you know giving that sonic clap that decimates everything in the area, Spider-Man would probably somehow just knock himself out punching him.

    Deadpool would also probably win in a similar fashion. I mean, his healing factor is faster than Wolverine's and can regenerate him from a nuclear blast as well as regrow limbs and such. And we saw this in the movie. Wolverine was going to be totally boned if Sabertooth hadn't shown up in the nick of time. And even then, they didn't kill him.

    Thanks. I always assumed Tony was richer lol. Though I guess all that amour eats away at a mans account.

    So, I'm remaking an adventure game I made in high school and I'm realizing how crappy the original was as an adventure game (I still like the animations, but the puzzles were pretty much non-existent, there was no real beginning and the end just closed the game without even a The End screen).

    This one really deserves some biting commentary. Is it kosher to make Let's Plays of your own games?
