    One of the perks of being a history major-it's completely normal to find your last name in 7th century Frankish court documents.

    So after 5 years, my 1st edition Nook has finally bit the dust. I'm legit sad about it...I brought it with me everywhere. It was my "travel buddy".

      I have one. Can confirm.

      All of my ebooks are in epub, which kindle doesn't support. And there's no way in hell I'm converting 250 books into another format. Probably getting a newer nook.

    Love getting woken up by a fire drill. Also love taking so long to actually get dressed and go outside that the drill ends 30 seconds after I leave the building.

    1. kayohgee

      I think they notified us pretty well what with the alarms and the people evacuating the building.

    2. <Witty Name>

      <Witty Name>

      Did you actually wake up, or were you sound asleep the entire time?

    3. alexgndl

      alexgndl

      Apparently some people just waited it out in the bathroom, as there's no alarms in there and it's muffled just enough to not make your ears bleed. Going to do that next time. Hopefully next time isn't a real fire.

      the show should end with the mythbusters testing out time travel, which ends with them mysteriously disappearing

      and then 1000 years in the future they resurface and bring science to the new world

    Guardians of the Galaxy was brilliant.

      I was about a month ago. But no one else really noticed.

  13. alexgndl

    Just really hit me for the first time that this is my last year in college (barring grad school because who the hell knows at this point). Feeling kinda sad about that. I don't wanna grow up.

    Remember, kids-every deck can be made better by adding black to it.

    1. ICBMoose

      ICBMoose

      I added black to my monoblack and nothing changed

      ICBMoose, you must've done it wrong then. Because my mono-black deck always needs more black.

    Hooray, work called in today and they want me to go in an hour early. 10 hour shift, no break, no sitting. Fuck this place.

    I've been standing for the past 9 hours...my feet are pain.

    1. Guy923

      Guy923

      I find standing for long periods of time to be absolutely insufferable

      Yesterday wasn't so bad. Today was just hell though. There's no chairs where I work, and you're on your feet all shift.

    Well, TIL that I'm in the super-minority in my family when it comes to computers-everyone else is a Mac plebian.

    Love it when Steam just randomly logs me out without me knowing.

    After months of arguing about it, my dad has finally conceded that yes, the lawn mower may be slightly broken. Counting it as a win.

    The Steam market fairy must've come during the night, because when I got up this morning I had sold everything that I had listed, and had exactly 15 bucks in my steam wallet. Awww yeah.

      Steam Fairy only made me five bucks. I still need like two more.

      steam fair has made me around 30 bucks in the past week. tf2 fairy took 20 for taunts though.

    Found a weird string of numbers in the subtitles at 5.59 in the new TF2 vid: 0:06:00.113, 1193:02:47 .295 Go nuts, conspiracy people who're better at this stuff than I am.

    Prepping for the summer sale, looks like I'll have enough in my steam wallet for 2 of these three: Starbound, Rogue Legacy, or Battleblock Theater. Can't decide which to get though...
