I prefer the shaven look. So do the ladies.

I certainly don't like cold showers and I know my sister's shower down in London is a pain to handle.

Ah, one of those that you need to mess about with to get the temperature just right. I know that a few friends don't agree with their partners on the perfect temperature for the shower, when they are washing. Other activities, I can only assume that a happy compromise is found :P

Washing in the shower with their love partner? What's not to like about it?

It's all good clean fun.

Then you know something's wrong when you'd rather look forward to 2013 than endure the shittiness of 2012.

I'm not having a bad year. Be positive and deserve a good year, rather than saying the year is shite and making it worse. Karma.

Karma may just be right. Shit just started really sour for 2012 and that kinda set the tone for me. All I need is a better celebration for new years 2013 and hopefully then the year overall will look brighter. My solution to a better new year celebration is to simply not be with my family at all. I'll see what my friends are doing then and if that fails, I'll simply be on my own for the new year.

I was positive about 2012, because 2011 started badly for me. I just looked at it that when 2012 got there, it would be my year, as opposed to saying "hurry up and fuck off, 2011!"

Maybe my sister will get onto her fiance and tell him to find better servers. At least the site is working now...

Ah, so we can check on our relative experience ranks now? Cool

No, the stats updates are not on my future brother-in-law's servers. Only my reviewing site is on there.

WHAT? So I could have checked them all along?!

I finished my diploma thesis. Finally! I handed it in on Tuesday, but I don't know how long it will take until it is read by the important people and I get my mark.
My tutor said: "It is impossible to fail with a thesis like this." when I showed him a previous state of my thesis. So I guess I will get a mark somewhere in the range of 1.7 to 2.3 (1.0 being the best mark, then it's 1.3, 1.7, 2.0, 2.3... down to 4.0. Everything below that is rated as 5.0, and it means that you failed).

Ah, but if I had lots of money, I'd fund The Forsaken City first. Sorry, but I really want that project to get off the ground :(

I see. Then I'll have to kickstart this thing myself. "If you fund this project, I will promise to do congrats-list daily in the LUL."

Seems promising enough.

While I like the merit of it, I now have an additional $35, as Forsaken City was not funded :(

So, what am I going to get as my incentive for spending $35 on this project?

An honest "Thank you!" and a warm handshake.

I had some graphic relaism on Borderlands the other day - stomped a skag to death. I even got an achievement for it :P

Yet another game I haven't played yet. Damn!

Borderlands is quite fun for killing time, to be honest. No two guns are the same and being able to make a giant psychopath explode right in front of your eyes is always amusing.

I've bought a bunch of PS1 games recently, Riven, Blazing Dragons, Discworld and Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars are the main reason I bought the whole package (it also includes some sports games. Some very crappy ones, some quite good ones). Now I own 69 PS1 games and I haven't played through almost 30 (including the new ones). But I guess I have to substract all those sport games from the list of unfinished games. You cannot really "finish" those games. But yeah, I have more than enough games to "kill time" with. But somehow, this doesn't stop me from buying new stuff all the time, heh.

No, for various reasons. The shower is too small, you can lose your footing, she might enjoy the showerhead more, I might get bored.

My wife has Discworld for the PC, but I never got around to play it. Also, Discworld was just part of the package I bought. Also also, you actually CAN control Discworld with a mouse on Playstation. I'll just have to try if I can just plug in a USB mouse on the PS3 and use that to control the PS1 game. If not, I just might buy a mouse for the PS1... on the other hand, Discworld is the only mouse compatible game so far. :/

I love it when work can be done like that. A shame that I've had to go back to real work today :P

Now that kind of work you cannot sleep on at all, unless you sent a clone in.

Nah, I find clones to be unreliable. Look at Saddam Hussein. His clones did a poor job and ended up with the real one getting found down a bolt-hole, somewhere in the Iraqi desert.

Quit posting? You never.

Exactly. I may have become a successful captain yesterday, but I want to carry this on.

And the only way is up, right?

Well, I've got to get a squad together to play on Sunday.

Well, I have a very small goatee on me. Nothing great but it's better than nothing.

I used to think that with my first attempt at a goatee. I was 18, had been shaving for about 3-4 years and it looked awful. Now, it looks a lot better, when I choose to grow it.

I'm not quite at that stage where I let it grow. Too many spots that just aren't growing yet. And yeah, I'm soon 22.... I guess age is treating me well.

Shave it more, it'll help encourage the hairs to grow.

I don't believe the last reason at all.

Really? I think this was the biggest reason.

You don't get bored in the shower when your partner is with you. :P

Been there, done that, got bored from being the third wheel, when I was done and she wasn't. Enough said.

Well, if you start looking what you can get "cheaper" while not in a relationship, then there must've been something very wrong with your last one.

I loved playing Discworld, but I'd never want to play it on a Playstation. Just like playing Command & Conquer on there, why wouldn't you play it on a PC, where you can control with a mouse?!

My wife has Discworld for the PC, but I never got around to play it. Also, Discworld was just part of the package I bought. Also also, you actually CAN control Discworld with a mouse on Playstation. I'll just have to try if I can just plug in a USB mouse on the PS3 and use that to control the PS1 game. If not, I just might buy a mouse for the PS1... on the other hand, Discworld is the only mouse compatible game so far. :/

Yeah, I just never understood why my friends got games like that, Theme Park, C&C and all of the other traditional Point and Click games on the playstation, while I was at school. Perhaps it was because they didn't have PCs...

I had an Amiga back then. But it was well before Command & Conquer... but yes, I wouldn't want to play something like C&C on a console either. But I heard that Sim City for SNES is a pretty good port.

The first time I played Sim City, it was on the first PC I ever owned. Of course, we had an Amstrad and Acorn Archimedes, before that, but they don't really count as "mainstream PCs". God, I was awful at Sim City.

I passed 27000 Saves. Way to go!

Yeah, to cut your own hair, it has to be long enough, so you don't have to try and cut it, while it's on your back.

I think I'd be better off letting a barbers handle the ends of my hair. Just as long as they don't truly fuck up and accidentally cut it all off.

I'm actually on the third disc of FF9, it is pretty fantastic. As for MGS 3, it is one of my favourite games of all time, I could just pop it in and be amazed... Every single time I play it.

Much to my amazement, the HD collection arrived today. I used free delivery method and it only took a single day to arrive here after being shipped out. At least now I have this game so I'll get MGS3 out of my system and while I'm at it, I should give Peace Walker a shot. I'd rather not play MGS2 again so soon.

This is only a rumor. Comes from when you shave it and it feels very smooth, it doesn't feel so smooth anymore one day later, I guess. But "shaving = hair grows faster" just isn't true. I shave regularly (about once a week) for over 15 years now, and my facial hair doesn't grow any faster because of this. ;)

I don't believe the last reason at all.

Lol, I could only play it with the "FUNDS" cheat.
Except for one time, when I played a scenario: Turn the small village into a metropolis in 30 years. I actually managed to do that without cheating (but still on the easiest difficulty level, though).

Some barbers might do that, if you have split ends. They tend to cut off too much... those bastards.

Not faster, thicker. When you're going through puberty, the male body gives out hormones and other chemicals, which encourage hair growth. Shaving encourages the hairs to grow back thicker, making the hair more resilient. I didn't say it would grow quicker, but the finer hairs will be replaced by darker, thicker hairs, which in turn can produce a better quality beard.

I don't believe the last reason at all.

I see. I still don't think it's true. :P
I had some sort of "hole" in my beard; a small part, where just no hairs would grow (Quite common with younger people. At least some of my friends had it as well), no matter how often I would shave. :P
