Yeah that is true. There isn't really an animal this is willing able to charge in to a storm of swords and phalanxes no matter how big they are.

I don't know, I think pepper spray has a longer lasting effect. But tasers do have some potential to kill you if you're unlucky, so perhaps pepper spray is better.

Well the bad thing about pepper spray is that it can be affected by the wind and be blown away from the target or back at you.

Maybe they have, but as you might know the EU is still a bit of mess.

A few months ago we had a problem with bad eggs coming in from Germany.

I know there can't be much farmland in the Netherlands but I would think that you would be able to raise your own chickens and eggs instead of importing them.

Funny to see how famous actors started their careers, often playing in silly commercials.

The best irony is that's how Joey was in Friends as well :P

Well at least he didn't turn out to be one of those actors who can really only play one role, or are casted for only one kind of role, right?

Yeah, but he made a pretty good getaway, even if he did botch the first attempt (Lost in Space). His character (Matt Le Blanc) on Episodes was really well played, because it's Joey, as Joey saw himself. A successful actor, but slightly less exaggerated.

If they have a decently sized grass field, then yes they are. Preferably with two goals and no water around.

Two goals? You don't need real goals to play football. Two trees, or just some parts of your clothing (like your coat or your sweater) will do to mark two posts.

Me neither, but I guess it could be fun once everybody had a few drinks.

I never have been so drunk that I could see the fun in singing karaoke. ^^

Well there are certain songs that are just fun to sing along with. Like:

DUUUUHUUUUUUUHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well that's what I thought too at first and at second, but then I got a little too enthusiastic one night with a certain kind of cake 0.o

And here am I, always thinking the cake was a lie. :/

The cake was the only thing that was not a lie that night 0.o

Sounds like you had one hell of a trip.

Must be one of those special trips. With regular public transport I don't think 70 euros will be enough.

I guess those bus lines can be compared to Greyhound busses in the USA.

Probably. There are some companies like Eurolines who have busses going from major city to major city. They'll drop you off in the early morning and can pick you up that evening (or the next morning, or a week later etc.). I think that's the kinda bus you have to go with.

Yeah. In 12th grade we had a school trip to Spain and we went there by bus. It took us 32 hours to get there...
Strangely enough the trip back only took about 24 hours.

Oh yeah, Ryan Air is one of the cheapest airlines if I remember correctly.

And they try to become even cheaper by charing you a small fee when you have to use the toilet. They are even thinking about introducing stances to planes... o_O

Oh yes I've heard of the standing places. Sounds pretty ridiculous but I guess it might work for very short trips. They shouldn't let people stand for any longer than an hour though.

I think it's a pretty bad idea. What do people in stances do if the "fasten your seatbelt" sign lits up? ^^

Yeah, fixit quit at around 50k IIRC which isn't a huge step from 30,000. Especially not for those who obtain 60-80 BP / day.

It's all good, though as I wanted the pressure of checking the portal all the time off me. However, I might need Portal Guard to speed up my blamming for Toohot100.

I don't find it much of sore yet, but eventually I will probably want to spend my time elsewhere as well.

I am starting to come to a point when ranking up on the BP lists isn't doable anymore (10k gaps, users like Gagsy and byteslinger bumping me down every time I finally rank up etc.). And if I can't really rank up and can't level up anymore either, I don't see what I still have to (actively) BP for.

I think 300 users is enough already, but building it up to 400 or 500 is fine with me as well. I'm sure most people within those regions will love it.

I might just have a fifth post as a bonus someday. The only problem is the fifth post wouldn't be possible if I step down from BBS modding or I pass it onto someone else so I have to be careful with that.

Well you could use an alt to get around the limit? I know that's technically against the rules, but I'm sure the mods then will understand. Also, as an ex-mod you could probably get away with little things like that ;)

Because my body still hasn't noticed that the mind died a few days ago.

Dammit, that isn't right.

Yeah, fixit quit at around 50k IIRC which isn't a huge step from 30,000. Especially not for those who obtain 60-80 BP / day.

Yeah, his count seemed very high back then but not now.

The next five to pass me are you, Gagsy, byteslinger, iscrulz and Pokemonpoeguygcn (wow, I actually got his name right without even looking).

*Flash backs to the time when lots of people here obtained the praporsch... praporschic... praporschik rank*

Heh, those ranks are rather forgotten to me. Then again, I did get Supreme Commander around five years ago.

It's all good, though as I wanted the pressure of checking the portal all the time off me. However, I might need Portal Guard to speed up my blamming for Toohot100.

I don't find it much of sore yet, but eventually I will probably want to spend my time elsewhere as well.

If you feel you can't keep it up, do yourself a favour and call it day. There's tons of other things to do.

I am starting to come to a point when ranking up on the BP lists isn't doable anymore (10k gaps, users like Gagsy and byteslinger bumping me down every time I finally rank up etc.). And if I can't really rank up and can't level up anymore either, I don't see what I still have to (actively) BP for.

Yeah, you're at a very tough position right now. At least after those two the most you'll have to worry about is Pokemonpoeguygcn. After that we'll see who else is climbing up the ranks.

I might just have a fifth post as a bonus someday. The only problem is the fifth post wouldn't be possible if I step down from BBS modding or I pass it onto someone else so I have to be careful with that.

Well you could use an alt to get around the limit? I know that's technically against the rules, but I'm sure the mods then will understand. Also, as an ex-mod you could probably get away with little things like that ;)

I could but I'd rather not push around if I'm not doing my mod duties anymore. Seeing next week will mark three years of making the B/P updates, I could extend the list just once.

Hey, that's a guy Dream-of-Duke can pester. :P Nah, I can just drop Wylo a message on Steam requesting for a new update every four weeks.

Sounds like a better idea. I think DoD only wants to pester Coop anyway.

If that's the case I'll just give Wylo a buzz at the start of every month.

What is my weak spot anyway?

Well according to the Hobbit, there's a weak spot in your armour somewhere on your chest. But that might only apply for the dragon Smaug though... =/

I can always put some extra armour on. ;)

If I were to shoot you somewhere, I'd aim for your balls. That'd be my weakspot so it might also be a dragons :p

Not if I've got balls of steel!

Unless we're together by then. :o

That's Brig. General, the rank that used to be the start of the leaf badges. You might be slow and steady but you're a potential quadlister someday. The only other person I know who's on his way to getting his fourth 10k stat is Auz.

If he is Recon, why is ReconRebel inactive?

That's what I'm thinking. This bloodthorne is alive and well with his deposits.

Call back gag FTW!

Well, since the guy who kicks for us is called Andy Goode, we can say that it's all Goode.

Puns are such abominations to the English language and yet people still make them. I guess it's just because they are punny. :P

um yeah.

Horses have a natural tendency to run in packs. So as long as you have several horses running together you can have them charge into anything. Now a better question is why horses often run into burning barns.

I'd laugh pretty hard if that happened. Then I'd take your wallet and walk off :p

You know, I wonder why more muggers don't just spray someone with pepper spray to rob someone. Sound much more simpler than getting a gun or trying to threaten someone with a knife.

There is plenty of farmland actually. Holland might not be that big, but the major cities aren't that big either so most of the space is utulized for farming.

I'm a little lazy to search for it but what is the population of the Netherlands and what is the size of the largest city?

I'm sure there are plenty of eggs produced in the Netherlands, but perhaps we're just importing and exporting them for the sake of trading and keeping each others economies going.

Sounds like kind of unproductive to me. Why get eggs from well over 1,000 miles away when you can have some locally made and more fresh.

Into the Top 100 on the Pentalist. With a lovely jump of 11 spots, up to a very satisfying #95.

You passed 32000 Saves. Way to go!

1K more or so.
