It might be the end-of-semester strain that eats at students mainly. Let's see here, I've witnessed a suicide (or at least an attempt), lost sleep over some last-minute projects that should have been assigned a week ago, and I've become more depressed, manic, and my mind is in decline.

Better yet, just call her a [bleep] (you know what word I'm aiming for). And I'd love to see people like that sterilized. People like that should never be allowed to procreate. I generally reserve that word for some very stupid women.

Infected Mushroom - Deeply Disturbed (Infected Remix) God this is awesome and bombastic to my ears.

This. I second this notion. If someone is behind me when I open a door, I'll usually hold it open for them, if only out of habit.

Oh god... To make a long story short, I usually hang out with some friends at the university center here after classes most days. Where we hang out, there's a circle that has railing around it because it's a 20ft drop because it's a sunroof and light can come through. We joked about it and called it the "Pit of Death" for quite a while, the past few months at the very least. As of today, we've pretty much stopped calling it that. I'm not sure what was troubling one of the members, but they climbed over the railing and jumped. The dude was prone to mood swings, but still, the fact I just witnessed this about six hours ago haunts me, and I've been pretty much on edge lately. I suck at reading people, and it sucks when you realize that there was nothing you really could have done.

Heh, that girl I was trying to get with? Turns out she's taken. Story of my goddamn life and my luck.

I really can't say much here, other than the fact that Avira keeps scanning for an update and never finds it. And it's been a month. There's nothing, no error message etc... Any ideas? I could give you guys the error report that can be checked and a HJT if it helps: Avira AntiVir Personal - Free Antivirus Updater Complete product update Creation time: Sat Dec 04 23:14:53 2010 Operating system: Windows XP (Service Pack 3) [5.1.2600] 32 bit Product information: Product version: 10.0.0.592 Updater: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\update[Caution: Executable File] 10.0.0.35 Update resource: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\updaterc.dll 10.0.9.0 Library: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\update.dll 0.1.0.44 Plugin: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\updext.dll 10.0.0.8 GUI: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\updgui.dll 10.0.2.0 Temp Directory: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\TEMP\UPDATE\ Backup folder: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\BACKUP\ Installation Directory: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\ Updater folder: C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\ AppData folder: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\ Proxy settings: Direct connection 23:14:53 [uPD] [iNFO] Checking whether newer files are available. 23:15:09 [uPDLIB] [ERROR] Resolving of host name 'personal.avira-update.com' failed.

I think some of the documents should be leaked, but the rest of it shouldn't. Really, can any of you honestly make use of most of the documents leaked? I am aware that some people could use those documents, but still. Some of those documents are classified to protect people...

Honestly, the DH is more reserved for the roaming soldiers in comp settings. If you can aim with it, it's amazing.

Holy 2-year necromancy post batman!

Today's been pretty awesome to me. I went out with this girl named Emily earlier today, and I think she actually likes me a bit. Yeah, I'm gonna try to chase this one. Other than that, right now I'm working on a major essay due Friday on... Othelllo? On the upside, at least after this I'm done with my English course. Also starting a Vampires: The Masquerade campaign on Thursday.

Shed Shell is more than one use IIRC.

Doesn't matter if he's Taunt bait. And the candle really doesn't give me any issues, although it does get greedy and keeps trying to trap Skarmory. The occasional Magnezone also shows up. That candle is also really frail, and SR+Spikes kills it quickly.

My current team has actually gotten me to the top of the ladder on the smogon server. Tyranitar (F) @ Lum Berry Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 232 HP / 252 SAtk / 24 Spd Quiet Nature (+SAtk, -Spd) - Stealth Rock (NOTE: I might swap this for Superpower if Darkrai becomes a major issue) - Ice Beam - Fire Blast - Crunch Rankurusu (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Magic Guard EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Calm Mind - Recover - Psychic - Focus Blast Burungeru (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Water Absorb EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Hidden Power [Electric] - Boil Over - Recover - Shadow Ball Roobushin (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Guts EVs: 68 HP / 224 Atk / 216 SDef Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Bulk Up - Mach Punch - Drain Punch - Payback Skarmory (F) @ Shed Shell Trait: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 160 SDef / 8 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Brave Bird - Roost - Spikes - Whirlwind Doryuuzu (F) @ Balloon Trait: Sand Throw EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Earthquake - Rock Slide - X-Scissor This team is focused on a two-pronged offensive: One involving setting up Rankurusu on walls that can't phaze, and Doryuuzu to clean up. Seriously, try running the Rankurusu I do, and many people will start to lose. Roobushin is set-up fodder to it. Payback is a 3HKO since Rankurusu is actually slower, so you could cycle Calm Mind, Recover, Recover, Calm Mind, Recover, Recover, Psychic. Just hope you can avoid a crit. The really slow Roobushins that run no speed IVs and a -speed nature will win out every goddamn time though. Rankurusu is the definition of bulky offense though. It has bulk on par with that of vaporeon, stat boosting, recovery, good coverage in Psychic and Focus Blast(Hidden Power Fighting is a fine substitute here), and it's ability is probably one of the best in the entire game, nullifying the effects of Leech Seed, Toxic, Burn, etc. The spread I run lets it take a Pursuit from Band Tyranitar and OHKO back with Focus Blast, unboosted or not.

Yeah no kidding. 5$ for a crapton of games at 92% savings? Yes please!

http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6790/ Don't feel like making a Black Friday thread, but $5 for all those games and 90% savings? YES PLEASE!

Yeah, just break it off. It could recover, but don't bank any sort of chance on it. Just break up with her and save both of you some issues down the road.

I'll trump it: Actually beating IWBTG.

I need to find a post I made about half a year ago, but that girl that was in a relationship with another? She's single now, so this should be interesting. Or so I hope.

I've actually taken to banning people off the TF2 server I frequent because of how annoying it is.

Equilibrium - Verbrannte Erde

Most days a week I drive a '03 Nissan Frontier. It's not a bad vehicle, and still runs fine after 100K miles. Got it as a graduation gift. It's a 25-minute-drive to and from uni.

I'd be up for AoE2, we could host it over Hamachi.

The Grand Diviner 8% Strength, 16% Bloodlust, 52% Intelligence, 40% Spirit, 28% Vitality and 36% Agility! Masters of predicting the future, Grand Diviners are deadly opponents. Using their foresight, Grand Diviners can easily and effortless outmaneuver a foe and launch a flurry of countercounts before the opponent can even react. Furthermore, by knowing exactly what will happen next, Grand Diviners can plan out their moves and attacks more carefully thus allowing them to better convserve their energy and allocate it to where it's most needed. Although Grand Diviners specialize in water based magic, they are proficient in the other basic elements. However, their mastery over water far exceeds that of any of the other spellcaster classes allowing them to manipulate the water more skillfully and effortlessly. For example, Grand Diviners can more easily transform water to ice and steam, and they can even manipulate the water within the blood of an individual to control them like a puppet. Their most power spell, Absolute Zero, completely freezes any opponent in a giant, unmeltable sphere of ice. Congratulations on reaching this high class! Much more like it. Weird, I'm a male though.
