The most expensive assasination of all time.

That we know of.

It's also one of the most weird assasinations of all time.

Yes, but some of those have been really weird. Particularly the ones that look like accidents / suicide.

Hm, this reminds me of a particular webcomic: http://static.nichtlustig.de/toondb/060110.html
"It should have looked like an accident. Not like a bizarre accident." - "Oh..."

You should have posted the picture. But indeed, that was a fair ROFLMAO moment.

I'm not allowed to post it. The guy who draws the comics may draw funny comics, but he's a complete douchebag when it comes to embedding/posting the comics anywhere else.

You mean Assamite? And I never played LARP, I always found it very strange...

Yes, Assimaar is a plane-touched D&D race (half-angel) Driving into the centre of Worcester, pulling up at a parking space and popping the boot, to the lads grabbing their gear, including a SPAS-12 replica shotgun, for BB rounds was a little worrying. Especially when the lad in question grabs the gun (with no ammunition) and says "right lads, off to the bank!"

As I've said: I never got the hang of LARP... >_>

Yeah, I've played it a handful of times, though one of my friends has had a run in with the police, for his foam and gaffer tape sledgehammer.

He might have suffocated someone with it!

Yeah, first we had "Advanced" D&D and then everything was even more confusing...

Advanced D&D still had THAC0 scores. Nowadays, you get an armour class of 10, plus your armour mod, dexterity mod (reduced for armour manoeuvrability), a modifier for the dodge feat, on one attacker per round, plus any cover, shield or spell / magic items you have. That number is equal to what the attacker must roll on the d20 to hit you. Their base attack bonus, plus strength (or dexterity - feats apply) modifier, plus any magical bonuses. Much easier to work out.

You lost me right after the first parentheses...

I'm glad you got that far ;)

Well, I do have some experience from playing D&D a few times...

Also, thinking positive for job applications only for them to turn you down no matter how much enthusiasm you had? Fuck you.

Going into a job application positively is better than going in with the attitude of an Emo, unless you're trying out for the vocalist of Bullshit for my Valentine, or something similar...

Not emo, just highly bitter towards these pricks. I do look forward to my next opportunity to call out on one of them via phone or something.

Well, when you go for an interview, you should always be positive, regardless of how you feel.

I saw a piece on YouTube about some woman saying "If God doesn't exist, then who wrote the Bible?" Wow.

Once, I got asked by a perfect stranger if I wanted to go for a walk, because the weather is so nice... I recieved activation codes for websites where I never signed up and I recieved an appointment date for a flat viewing (somewhere in Duesseldorf...).
Just today I recieved an e-mail from gmail, congratulating me for the new gmail-account that I just set up.

Yeah, he filed some lawsuits already, so it's better to be on the safe side.

Wow - all publicity is good publicity. Take a line from Angry Birds' creator's book.

Speaking of Angry Birds... I've never seen so much Angry Birds merchandise as I saw in Singapore. The stuff was literally EVERYWHERE.

Yep - if you go back there now, it'll be "Gangnam Style" with everything.

This is a meme that went completly past me.

No, they thought he might be able to beat someone to death with it - he pointed out that he'd probably have a heart attack before completing the death blow...

"The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon"?

Yeah, that kind of sums it up

And again! And again! And again and again and again! And again andagainandagainandagainandagain!

One of my friends build a hammer out of cardboard boxes and aluminium foil one time at Wacken Open Air. When we went to the stage to see HammerFall the security wouldn't let him in at first. "Are you fucking kidding?!" was their first reaction...

I could understand if the band was called "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" or "Guillotine", but it's just a fucking hammer!

Hm, a chainsaw build out of cardboard boxes... that would be interesting.

Listening to:

Helloween - Walls of Jericho. And Halloween is just a few weeks away. Good time to listen to them.

And then they sung Call Me Maybe.

Only six episodes, though. And with that said, just two more days until the next episode.

I'll get there, it just won't be immediately. Look at how long it's taken me to get at the new Futurama... and still counting.

Yeah, what happened to your love to Futurama? :P Is it going to be that I'll get you season 6 on blu-ray and be like "This is an early birthday present for you." at the London meet?

It's not like I'd get another opportunity with them anyway. Then again, that's if they DO phone me and most of them never even bother with that now. It's what I'd expect from a bunch of little Hitlers like them.

I'm sorry that it makes you feel this way.

In all fairness, you are not at fault here. Now if you were to run the country and do things right, that would be pretty damn cool.

I found this song amusing, due to some of the cricketers dancing around the snooker room to it. One of them slipped and nearly concussed himself on the table.

After having to listen to this shit for 3 hours straight, I cannot find anything "amusing" about that song...

I'd rather Cary Rae was stuck in my head than Psy.

And yet another figure of speech I don't quite understand. :(

I'd rather go around remembering the video for Call Me Maybe, than the video for Gangnam Style. At least the Carly Rae Jephsen video has a woman singing in it.

This reminds me, on one of my e-mail-adresses I regularly recieve e-mails that where supposed to go somewhere else. Most of the time people forget a number, or they write @gmx.de instead of @gmx.net or something like that.
Once, I got asked by a perfect stranger if I wanted to go for a walk, because the weather is so nice... I recieved activation codes for websites where I never signed up and I recieved an appointment date for a flat viewing (somewhere in Duesseldorf...).
Just today I recieved an e-mail from gmail, congratulating me for the new gmail-account that I just set up.

I don't know much about it (I haven't read any of them, sorry Coop) but I think it's basically a story that Coop is writing that he post every 1k blams that he gets.

I could not talk enough about Doctor Who so I made a news post.

I have an alt that will be statwhoring today or tomorrow if that counts. If you're looking at my main account, then don't expect anything until I reach 30k EXP and that's 57 days away. The last achievement for this account was 29k EXP so my milestones are highly minimal now. Now if only I got myself to get more medals.

There are two key parts of the title to look for here: Levelup!, basically meaning that any milestone of statistical significance can be shouted about in here, without fear of reprisal, and the ideal of "No stat threads" has been abided by.

Secondly, the title "Lounge", basically meaning that this is a thread for regulars to hang out in, post about their daily goings on and just have chit-chat with one another.

Hope this helps.

I would not say "no stat threads" has been abided by; I would say it is a, "In order to keep spam out, this is the only stat thread allowed." type of thread, however, you are the mod and I am going to have to take your word for it. So, essentially, you have found a sneaky way to talk about whatever the hell you damn well please with other regulars away from the general masses? If so, then I am not worthy to converse with such gentlemen! Why, I have a record, if each record was printed on 8.5x11" paper each, that is 28 metres long! Oh it has been a long time, has it not?

Medals from 888 games. Take 2.

Thanks to all the HTD games being removed. Feels like it took forever to get back to where I once was.

Yes it will, you guys will still be here, so will I and the few other semi-regulars and I'm sure plenty of new people will appear. Maybe if we all put a link to it on our userpages with a small explanation what this great thread is about we could attract so more peeps. And let's keep in mind we are all getting higher in Levels so the achievements are few and far between nowadays but that was always to be expected. So we need to get some new lower Lvl Newgrounders posting here. Maybe if Coop or Bahamut or Haggard (one of you guys) could make a short 'Rules of the thread post', so the newbies know what's acceptable posting and that there's absolutely no fucking around in here and spammers/trolls will be severely dealt with, with bans. Things could greatly improve in here. Not that I don't already think they're great.
