Halo Discussion thread
I feel like every trace of Bungie possible to remove was in fact removed. The sounds, the music, the announcer. Overall still a fun game though. Helmets are ugly as sin though.

Today...
I got a lap dance at work today cause we were hosting a sorority again. God I love sorority girls. REALLY wish I went away to college. Got a glimpse of what I missed... HEYHEYHEY I'm the TIF drunk! There can only be one! hahaha glad you're having fun though. We could totally do a world trip and have drinks with the other willing OTers lol And guys, I dunno bout you all because 12 beers for me is a solid hammered. I'm also a fairly small guy (5'11" @ 135lbs). I can drink all night, but I get mighty sloppy after my 12th

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I feel this is the male version of what women go through when trying to find a boyfriend by putting out. 'Why commit if the sex is free?' equates to 'Why date him if I can talk to him and be entertained now?' Don't buy milk if you own a cow...or however that goes. I'm a fan of this move @Muggiw: Relationship dynamics are constantly changing, and of course expectations will change dependent on the upbringing of the expecter. To say men have become more emotional over time would be accurate. I'd even go as far as to say we could attribute this to modern breeding practices. Women on the pill have a biological (re)disposition to find a more grounded mate, and not a nomadic manly-man. This gives the more emotional, less threatening guy a better chance of breeding, who will than pass his experiences to the next generation. I'm sure there's more hormonal influences that can be sited, but that one's my favorite.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I've been single for 3 years with partial intention of doing so. I could have had a number of relationships down the road, but I usually end up backing out because I'm not a believer in that I could handle a relationship properly right now. Of course, after actively declining so many opportunities, I have to wonder if I'm ready now, but unfortunately it's hard to judge until the proper situation arises. Overall I know I'm best off single for the time being, and I do my part to keep it that way. That being said, socializing is a lot of fun, and no strings attached hook ups are double edged swords.

"Drunk here ...lolwat...but i have young girls and this dude named something" I was drunk, no idea what the middle bit is and met a guy named JJ. "Sounds like some Hangover shit. best be finding your buddy. I want to hear the full story" I was interested in Saq's escapades. Still am. Sounds hella interesting. "Saq, we need to party" EDIT "kind of drunk but sad about all the topics I have to read. The avatar thread is so interesting but for some reason I've never read the whole thread. I don't know why. I should read it after my midterms" I want to party with Saq. He sounds like a fun drunk. I was browsing other OffTopic subforums and found one about Avatar that I was interested in, but was too lazy to read. Now I've lost my place in the thread, but whatever. I was sad that I didn't get to read the whole thread. Or any of the other threads that have that "new posts" symbol next to it So yeah. Saq. TELL YOUR STORY.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Sumpta's comment confuses me Saq, some people aren't going to be angry that you're talking to them drunk. Having also clearly broken that rule last night myself, I sent a few facebook messages out and a text I shouldn't have. Apologizing isn't attractive, but neither is not apologizing. The trick is don't do anything you should have to apologize for. The facebook messages all went to long time friends that I missed, so they were happy to hear from me, no worries, no cares. The text I sent was to a girl I tried to get with like 2 years ago who likely didn't take it with the same fancy. Learn from me - it's not a great tactic to pick up girls whilst smashed. Barely ever works anyway. Noxx...I think you were pretty close "I was at a party tonight that was all under age golf but [bleep] that was nice and i drove home like an [wagon] but oh well. Didn't hook up with anyone but im okay with that. God im lonely." I'd say more like "I was at a party tonight that was all underage girls but (I don't know...) nice and I drove home like an [wagon] but oh well. Didn't hook up with anyone but I think I'm okay with that. God I'm lonely. " What a depressing sentiment haha. Likely why I ended up facebooking some old friends though.

You'd trade your cousin for $1700 and a gun(and some other stuff)? Harsh, man, harsh. Why was she living with you in the first place? Today I went on a movie marathon with some old friends that were visiting from college, as it(their college) was underwater as of Tuesday. Cabin in the Woods - excellent. The Hunger Games - enjoyable, didn't read the book so I don't have a strong opinion Brave - beautiful, predictable and cute. Makes me excited for future pixar movies with this aesthetic quality Rubber - Honestly the most artsy crazy awesome indy film I've ever seen. 80 minutes well spent.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Sounds like you and I should party sometime Saq haha. Sumpta brings up an old point. I think it was good ol' Lent that was our living proof of hanging around enough social and people-skilled folk will in turn make you more social and people skilled. It's like studying for a test...only with personal skills. I for one am a huge offender of the drunk comm rule. In turn most of my friends & acquaintances assume I'm always drunk. Even here I occasionally get a light jabbing for it. I'm always facebooking when I'm drunk, but I have learned that texting is very stupid, so that got cut out mighty quick. Randox, your metaphor is brilliant. I will never forget the first time a girl drunk dialed me, and as much as I loved her, I was furious for weeks about it. Drunk people are generally only appealing (if at all) to other drunk people.

But what one is capable of doing drunk, must also be possible whilst sober.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I had (still struggle with occasionally) the same problem Saq. For me it was because I was afraid of the implications a conversation would carry. I felt like every word I'd say would be scrutinized and judged, so I kept to myself and avoided conversation. Whilst drunk, this inhibition disappears and I'll literally talk about anything, and looking at your description of what happened to you at the party(s) you're not too far from the same result. What helps me is relaxing and not letting my mind get ahead of itself. I don't over think what I'm about to say, instead I focus on what they're saying. Being a good listener is a key to a good conversation (though it does help to think before you speak, as I've gotten myself into some trouble not doing so plenty of times). Next time you see yourself in that situation Saq, ask yourself why you want to turn away. Do you have nothing to talk about? Rattle your brain. Literally for any source of conversation topic. You wouldn't believe what some people are willing to go on about. But this brings me to my next point: always have something ready to talk about when you go out. If you plan on seeing anyone over the course of a day, make sure you have something discussion worthy in the back of your head. This could literally be an infinity of source topics, ranging from completely obscure to the most menial mainstream bull crap (ie: American politics). Try to pick something you know a good deal about and are comfortable talking about (avoid controversy unless you know your audience already agrees with you).

Lest we forget that LucasArts also owned Indiana Jones... now at the hands of Disney. Luckily I think Disney picked up the co-chair woman of former LucasArts (Kathleen Kennedy) to head all Star Wars projects. George himself said that from the very beginning he was teased that the Star Wars series should have been run by Disney all along. Also Jersey re-postponed Halloween again until Monday. Or atleast my chunk of it did. I love that they can just do that.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
C://Files/Advice/Confidence_Encouragement/ Searching for files... ... Sounds like you don't talk to people 1 on 1 very often. Work on changing that to build comfort in doing it in less comfortable situations. Talk to people. If you have a job, push conversations with clients, most people will respond in some way or another, and you'll learn from it. Sooner or later you won't even notice any awkwardness (and if you do, it'll feel so normal it won't matter). Then you'll have the confidence to speak to whomever whenever.
