Mine hasn't been sent :'(

I can't find an email either

 

[Danoss]

Mine hasn't been sent either. Then again, I didn't order anything. Carry on.

 

[FallbackPants]

How about those Broncos in your absence?

Oh man I know. They've self destructed. I haven't seen the last two, but they've gone from being in the top four/two the entire season to possibly missing the finals. It's ridiculous. I still think Hook is a quality couch, I'm not ready to throw him under the bus yet. Some of the vets have to step up and pull this together. I'm looking at you Thaiday, Parker and Wallace.

I think he's probably the best couch you could buy in the shape of a human.

 

[reptilescorpio]

MightyApe have a few good deals, might take another shot. Can't recall postage costs though, that might stop me at checkout.

Nothing like a comfy couch!

So I'm back from Japan. It was amazing. I only wish I could speak Japanese beyond "yes", "thank you" and "good morning"

Akihabara is the single most mental place I've ever been. Kyoto is awesome, Hiroshima is really sad, but also great.

The phrases I used most were "Excuse me", "How much is that?" and "I'll take it!"

 

[Poimandres]

My "friend" has been giving me shit about a Rolling Stone pinball machine somewhere in the city in Brisbane. I've been getting in to pinball lately, and I'd really like to try this, but he's holding out on the location.

Anyone know where this elusive machine lives?

It's been made redundant and in its place is a nephew of a new minister who will gladly take your 20c coins.

I wouldn't care if it's a broken down sorry thing with one flipper, if there's a 20c pinball machine around I will feed it silver all day long!

 

[Danoss]

20c pinball? Where?

 

[Poimandres]

20c pinball? Where?

Pretty sure that exists nowhere except for our dreams.

 

[Danoss]

Pretty sure that exists nowhere except for our dreams.

Such a magical place.

 

[fappenmeister]

This sentence doesn't make sense. I am going to just say that the Rolling Stones are awesome.

The NSW police commissioner Andrew Scipione has linked a growing number of stabbings to violent video games.

Yep. I believe this. There were no stabbings before videogames existed.

Mesopotamia exhibit was pretty good! Lots of reading, but the layout was fantastic. Learnt quite a bit.

I played Sin and Punishment 2 once and went on a hoverboard under the ocean killing aliens with backflips.

 

[Salazar]

Saw someone who looked utterly like you on the bus, Shan.

Manly jaw, though.

 

[Box of Bunnies]

It's a widely believed fact that incidences of jumping violence against mushrooms and turtles skyrocketed in 1987.

Dont forget all the incidents of ghost cannibalism and alien genocides.

Lol, I'd like to think I don't have a manly jaw. Can't have been me though, I've been asleep in the library

 

[jambo]

It's just preposterous. If video games had affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in dark rooms, munching pills and listening to repetitive electronic music.

 

[Jader7777]

20c pinball? Where?

The cheapest place I know is "Time Gone" which is opposite the Cabramatta train station, Sydney

$1 for 2 continues.

It's sort of seedy and underground but worth checking out if you're into crazy arcades.

 

[Salazar]

I've been asleep in the library

Good idea.

It's significantly less embarrassing than falling asleep in class. My half asleep notes are pretty hilarious though.
I feel like we are doomed to never have a proper meeting ;.;

 

[midonnay]

goddamn the stars are aligning for the Sydney Swans....

the other Swan got suspended for a couple of weeks for boozing >_>

I got busted for sleeping in the library once. Woman was all like "if you wana sleep, go home" ;.;

 

[Deleted member 30609]

I have a real Internet connection again.

 

[Salazar]

I feel like we are doomed to never have a proper meeting ;.;

Next Thursday ? I have a moderation meeting, to remedy my wild inexperience at marking essays.

Also, I suppose, to help me take a more dispassionate approach to it. Which isn't easy.

 

[midonnay]

if they didn't want ppl to sleep, they shouldn't have cushy chairs =,=

 

[Deeku]

marking essays.

You should post dumb stuff that your students write here! Though I guess that would be extremely unprofessional/unethical.

Exactly. And no heating during winter!

I dont mind seeing Sydney win if they do so playing the football they have been.

I dont want to see geelong win another, hawthorn get anywhere near it, or collingwood ever again. West coast winning would be unbearable living in WA.

That leaves Adelaide who I dont mind, and Sydney as the only viable contenders in the 8 who I dont despise.

Essendon/North/Fremantle dont have a shot unless the stars align and they do a steve bradbury.

edit: a sydney vs adelaide final would be a damn good game to watch I reckon. Non-traditional rivals, and both teams capable of some impressive football. Also helps that they are generally pretty good fair players in both sides too.

What, and reignite the debate about all GF's being at the MCG?

 

[Yagharek]

There's no debate; its staying there.

There's an AC/DC and a Transformers one at timezone. Maybe try the arcade at the myer centre at the movies.

 

[FormallyMegadrive]

IMO it should always be at a non-home ground for each team so nobody gets a home ground advantage. Not that there would be much of a home ground supporter advantage.

why is nobody in steam chat

That's so mean! What if you are sleepy but have class soon? Luckily we've got lots of sunny grassy areas that are nice for lazing on as well.
The trick is to have a book, and possibly a pen in hand so if someone comes by it looks like you're busy working Also sitting in the corner helps.

As in the 16th? Sounds good Let me know when you're free. I have class at 2 but that's it.

I hope you don't have too much to mark =/ I imagine it eats up a fair amount of time..

But also amusing.

Just chiming in that I received my Double Fine Backer Rewards last Monday, the 30th of July. I received my notification of shipping on the 11th of July. Some people may want to check their spam filters, because the email came from Fangamer Mailroom (orders@faangamer.com) with a subject line of DFA Shipping Confirmation: Order KICKDFA-#---- which took me a second to realise what the funch I had ordered from Fangamer.

Actually, if you're sleeping in the library gtfo. I have work to do and power points are a non-renewable resource.

It depends how crowded it is really Usually there's space for everyone. What really shits me is people who sit at the library computers with their laptops in front. I don't even?! What!?!?

 

[Planet_JASE]

Huh. So he did read my email...

Also, yo image seems to be broken. Arrested Development hate you, too.
