Level 24. Didn't really take too long, tbh.

I'm busy, but I'm still sorta here. I'm so far behind on exp from the pack that my thoughts are to silently catch up and pass a few here and there :P

a hard one to see this days... so i am kinda proud of it

I forgot to mention this earlier before but I now have 1,000 medals! The Hexalist has given me good motivation to earn a nice amount of medals and I look forward to reaching 10,000 someday. Well, that's if I'm still there by then.

Congrats to all of you btw. I've been slacking on NG really badly since I started running this game server. It's a lot of work :/ Plus my side business. Those coupled together it's like I never get any time to sit and write some reviews, or grab some b/p.

Hopefully things will calm down and I can get back to passing inactives as usual :3

Level 22

Why don't you slap some bacon and sausage on top of that and have a heart attack as well, heh.

All day breakfast sandwich - egg, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, fried slice and beans all in a sandwich for about £8. My dad's cousin had one once, with "thick bread", which amounted to half a hollowed out loaf.

Fro says sorry about the loss of stats. The big thing is his name only brought up his accounts because of him foolishly saying it in posts and/or the flash movie descriptions.

Too bad, they seem like ideal songs for the radio.

Sad But True might just a little bit too "heavy" for the radio and The Unforgiven is over 6 minutes long. Hardly ideal for pop music radio stations. They prefer songs that aren't longer than 4 minutes.

Either way, those songs are still more mainstream friendly than their previous works.

Well, "One" got pretty heavy rotation on various music tv stations.

Ain't My Bitch isn't on S&M. Oh well.

S&M is the only album I won't pick up. The concept might be interesting, but the excecution is somewhat lame. The orchestra is drowned out in huge parts of the songs.

It saves me from getting Load and ReLoad so I'm happy.

You should pick them up, though.

Remember the time when we agreed on newer technology not lasting as long as older stuff?

Oh yeah. But we wheren't too happy about that, so I didn't mark that day.

Shame, really. We at least agreed on that but of course, it doesn't give us confidence in newer technology.

See above: We shouldn't be happy about sad things like newer technology failing more often than older technology.

No, it's awesome!

Auz says it's lame. So that's 2 votes for "lame" and only one vote for "awesome".

We bought a sofa yesterday, for 1,800 Euro. :o

Ours was only 350. I feel poor :(

But if we had such an expensive sofa right from the start we wouldn't really appreciate it. I am of the opinion that you have to start "low", with cheap furniture that doesn't fit together too well. And then when you have the money to buy new stuff, you'll be able to appreciate it more.

Yeah I can agree with that line of thinking. Apart from the fact that we'll learn to appreciate more expensive furniture, it's also a bit risky to go and buy very expensive stuff. At the start you never know if it's gonna work out or not and if it isn't then you end up being flat out broke with furniture worth thousands of euros that you can hardly store anywhere.

But it's decent stuff really. It feels very solid and you can be sure that it will hold for at least 5-10 years.

Billy and Benno rule!

And so do Björn and Benny! Our closet is called dombås. We decided that it's pronounced "dumbass" :p

Silly Swedish names. Even for Dutch people they're unpronouncable.

Okay, maybe four weeks is still way too little to actually see much of the country.

Depends on the country, I guess.
I bet 4 weeks would be enough to travel through the netherlands from north to south and east to west. :P

More than enough. In a week or two I'm sure you can see all that might be worth seeing around here.

I've discussed a trip to America with my gf and together we want to see so much that we'd need at least half a year to see everything. The inconvenient thing is, we pretty much want to go to all sides of the country. I want to go to Alaska, Florida, the Yoshimite Park, the Nevada desert. She wants to go to New York, San Francisco... It's gonna be impossible to see all that in a four week holiday.

You just need an awesome time management and quite a few drugs to keep you awake.
"Okay, that was two minutes of Yoshimite Park, on to our next location!"

Obviously I'd like to stay for a while to enjoy the scenery :p

Naaah they're usually in their classrooms or in the teachers lounge. It were the janitors who were always patrolling in and around the school.

Teachers here have playground duty. Maybe it's because the janitors are too lazy to walk around?

I guess. That sounds like a typical janitor job to me.

Hmm, not that I'm aware of.

I could swear some kind of NG meme sprouted from the fact that Bedn stole the programming code for the Flash portal to build Retrogade's portal.

IIRC he was only on that frozen glacier mountain and he wasn't that tough. In other games I remember him to be much harder. You could even consider him a mini-boss.

Yeah, that's where he was in FFVII. Definitely not the Malboros we know and fear.

Nah they were nothing to fear for. I believe some walkthrough explicitely warned me for them, but I think you could also get some kind of protection accesory from status effects just before you were going to battle him. Without his Bad Breath, he's a pushover.

Wow... so it must be the FF game that is available on the most amount of systems.

It is. Hell, once they've remade FFV and VI on 3DS (which will happen eventually), they'll probably put them on the new PSP as well.

And people keep complaining about how they are milking FF7 so much :p

I suppose not. I like the DS' improved graphics very much. I'm curious how it will look for the PSP then though.

It uses the traditional sprites but they're all redrawn.

But the battles were now in 3D right? That looked pretty nice to me.

I don't know where that would be. Usually I went training near the entrance if I went to the Northern Crater, but my favorite training place was that old aircraft wreck in which you could morph monsters into HP ups, Attack ups etc.

There were two mystical rooms that were full of magic pots and Movers. That gave you uber EXP, AP and money. Equip EXP Plus materia and anything else alike and you've got some serious gains from them.

Oh yeah I remember those magic pots giving massive money and AP or something. It never really came up with me that I should go and train in those rooms. I always had a hard time finding the exit in the Northern Crater. Wasn't there a point of no return somewhere and if you built your safe point there and saved you were fucked?

I try to have at least something for breakfast whether it is just toast or a bowl of cereal.

I go for one slice of bread usually, but I found that a bowl of soy yoghurt goes down best for me. The problem is, I'll be hungry again an hour later.

Well we put salt on it as well, but I find it kinda boring without anything else on it. It just needs a sauce.

Yeah, it just seems now that ketchup is just getting sweeter and sweeter. Soon it's just going to be tomatoes and sugar.

Agreed. It's often too sweet for my liking. I prefer curry ketchup sauce on most things, it's basically a more spicy version of ketchup. Goes much better with burgers and stuff like that.

Mayonaisse doesn't have to be so fattening. We got plenty of 'ligher' versions that only contain 30% fat or so instead of 70-80%. Of course there's a slight difference in taste, but it's still great. Also, fries don't have to be so unhealthy either. Sometimes they baked them in lard here, but for restaurants and such that has been forbidden for a long time now. At home we usually bake them in sunflower oil or peanut oil, which is much better for you than lard.

Peanut oil is by far the best oil in my opinion by the way.

Yeah peanut is great for deep frying stuff since it has a high smoke point and doesn't leave a peanut taste as one might think.

Exactly. That higher temperature you can bake with just gives everything a better taste.

And, light mayonnaise is not worth eating. You can't skip out of the fat in mayo and have it taste decent. I dunno I just see mayo as a dressing rather than a dipping sauce. Now just toss some chili and cheese sauce on top, there you have my perfect addition to fries.

I think light mayonnaise is different in America than it is here :p It's quite similar to normal mayonnaise in Holland. They just used less oil I think.

Also cheese sauce? Ugh, I would never eat that with my fries.

I'm not so sure about that last statement. Maybe if she's very demanding, wants to go buy new clothes every day, wants a new car, wants stupid clothing for her stupid chiwawa etc. Perhaps hookers would be a cheaper option :p

Unless you get a VD and then it won't be so cheap. Ha!

Well yeah... then you could perhaps spend thousands of dollars to cure yourself :p

You CAN get back out. You just have to go all the way back to the start and enter the Highwind. The only point of no return is when you enter the very centre but by then the game will disable the save point.

I ordered "October Rust" and "Dead Again" (both from Type O Negative) yesterday. Now my discography is complete! YAY!
But I might have to buy "Bloody Kisses" again, because the CD is scratched and skips on track number 7. :/

I also discovered Obscurus Lupus while watching the Nostalgia Critic's review for "The Room" (she has as a small appearance there).

More awesome stuff.

Oh yeah. At first I thought about skipping this band because I still hold some sort of grudge against them. At Wacken Open Air 2002 (yes, it's that long ago) I wanted to see a band called Eisregen (propably not a band for you since they only sing in german, but I linked a song anyway), but the running order got mixed up a bit due to a heavy storm. By the time I got to the stage where Eisregen should play (it was pretty hard to get to it, since it was located in a small tent that had only one entrance which also served as an exit... it took me almost 15 minutes until I could see the stage!) and suddendly some other band where up on stage. I said: "This is not Eisregen" and someone replied: "No, this is Primordial" and I was like WTF?
I wanted to see Eisregen pretty badly since their live shows are rare and now some assholes with a band name that I can't even pronounce correctly are up on stage? Very dissappointing...

BUT! Luckily I did check them out anyway. Their songs sound really cool and I have changed my opinion about them (which was based on one bad incident anyway).

So far Overkill is #1 on my "Bands I want to see" list, together with Amorphis.

Overkill should be a good one considering how good their new album is.

That's good to hear. Now I can only hope they aren't headliner on Sunday...

But we're happy!

We shouldn't be happy when we are failing, though. Even though it reminds me a bit of "Only Happy When It Rains" by Garbage. ^^

We should always look on the bright side of life.

And of course look on the bright side of death.

Either way, those songs are still more mainstream friendly than their previous works.

Well, "One" got pretty heavy rotation on various music tv stations.

But if we had such an expensive sofa right from the start we wouldn't really appreciate it. I am of the opinion that you have to start "low", with cheap furniture that doesn't fit together too well. And then when you have the money to buy new stuff, you'll be able to appreciate it more.

Yeah I can agree with that line of thinking. Apart from the fact that we'll learn to appreciate more expensive furniture, it's also a bit risky to go and buy very expensive stuff. At the start you never know if it's gonna work out or not and if it isn't then you end up being flat out broke with furniture worth thousands of euros that you can hardly store anywhere.

Yeah, plus if you try to sell it, you'd only get about half of what you payed if you are lucky.
But you know, the thought of "things not working out" never crossed my mind when I moved in with my gf. ^^

But it's decent stuff really. It feels very solid and you can be sure that it will hold for at least 5-10 years.

Billy and Benno rule!

And so do Björn and Benny! Our closet is called dombås. We decided that it's pronounced "dumbass" :p

Hm, when I searched for Björn I only came up with some ugly as fuck teddy bear, Benny resulted in Benno and Billy... maybe Benny is a cross between those two? ^^

Silly Swedish names. Even for Dutch people they're unpronouncable.

I was instantly thinking of "dumbass" as well, heh.
There's also some furniture which name looks a lot like "wichsen", which means "to jerk off" in german. ^^

Okay, maybe four weeks is still way too little to actually see much of the country.

Depends on the country, I guess.
I bet 4 weeks would be enough to travel through the netherlands from north to south and east to west. :P

More than enough. In a week or two I'm sure you can see all that might be worth seeing around here.

Great, then I'd have another two weeks to visit Belgium. I only have been to the city of Brussels once, but I would like to see more of the country.

You just need an awesome time management and quite a few drugs to keep you awake.
"Okay, that was two minutes of Yoshimite Park, on to our next location!"

Obviously I'd like to stay for a while to enjoy the scenery :p

"We have no time for the scenery, we have another 10 places to visit today!"

Naaah they're usually in their classrooms or in the teachers lounge. It were the janitors who were always patrolling in and around the school.

Teachers here have playground duty. Maybe it's because the janitors are too lazy to walk around?

I guess. That sounds like a typical janitor job to me.

My new goal in life: Become a janitor!

You passed 30000 Saves. Way to go!

I just wish I would have achieved this before Bahamut made the B/P Update.
