Noxx

No i get where you're coming from. i have road rage, and i have a slight problem keeping my temper at bay in certain situations. Me driving like a maniac because someone failed to use an indicator/cut me off in traffic, just to get back at him. I see that as being unjust or a "questionable situation". Some guy physically "harming" or "harassing" my girlfriend... Well that i don't. She's family to me. I'm not going to start a fight with every guy that looks at her. I'm not going to start a fight with ever guy that talks to her. Heck, every time we meet new people they tell us we're a very "confident couple" because when we're out at a bar or a club or whatever we don't HAVE to be with each other the whole time. I'll do my thing and she'll do hers. We'll watch each other get hit on by other people and it wouldn't bother either of us. But when some guy tries to violate her while i'm standing right there...am i just supposed to turn my back on it? Am i just supposed to say "OH he doesn't mean it, hes just drunk. I'll let it go :)" Hell no. I'm going to teach him a lesson, even if i have to act like a savage while doing it. I know he's not going to change his ways overnight. I know he's not going to wake up the next morning thinking "Some kid beat the shit out of me last night cause i tried grabbing a stranger's vagina. Maybe i should stop." I'm not naive. But if i can cause him some sort of discomfort for even a short period of time, i'm happy. And the reason i'm okay with this, personally, is because i'm not putting anyone but myself at risk (as apposed to road rage). In some situations i believe physically beating someone to a pulp is the only way to settle a matter. What, am i supposed to have a civilized discussion with some drunk telling him i am upset about his behavior? He's not going to listen, nor is he going to care. Should i tell a bouncer and have him removed in a civilized manner? Then next weekend he's back at the same club doing the exact same thing. No, i'll drag him out there by the neck and have him thrown out and banned from the club (which he now has been). Or if i'm not in a place where i can do something like this, i'll knock his face in. That's really the only way to deal with drunk people. I was talking to a friend (female friend) about these events earlier tonight and she told me at a different club something similar happened. A guy was being disrespectful towards a guy's girlfriend and he got taught a lessons. Him and 3 of his friends dragged the guy outside and beat him so bad he had to be taken up in hospital. I asked her how she felt about it and she told me that he got what he deserved. If you're going to go around telling every girl you see how you're going to [bleep] her like she's a [bleep]... well treat a girl with disrespect and no reason why your punishment should be respectable either. I think most guys, with out without some rage issues, would react in the exact same manner. But to get back to your original "question", i do see what your point is. But i don't think in this situation it applies. I don't think my reaction was based on a bad temper, i think it was based on natural male "instinct".

If you're drunk, go home. You're bothering everyone around you. No one likes a drunk guy falling over his feet, bumping in to people, making them spill their drinks, etc. They like it even less when he's going around touching girls. Problem is that people have become too scared to "make a scene", or "cause drama". If you're willing to touch someone that does not want to be touched, you have to be willing to take whatever comes with that. There's really nothing "questionable" about it. Act like a barbaric [bleep], and so will i. Hah.

I don't know what it is with this girl of mine... trouble seems to follow her around. Tonight we went to a club. We got free tickets to some DJ's show (Ferry Corsten or something). We were there for about 30 minutes when this drunk guy walks buy. So drunk he can barely walk straight. He bumps right into her and she pushes him away. She yells "What the [bleep] that guy just tried touching my vagina". I told her that he's probably just so drunk he didn't mean it. But as i turn around and watch him walk buy i seem him pass another couple and he grabs this girl's ass. I could see it was no accident. So without really thinking i just run up to him and grab him by the back of his collar. I start dragging him towards the door of the club but before i could reach it my sister's friends pulled me off the guy. We explained to the bouncers what happened and they kicked the guy out. It was funny because the guy was 3 times my size and a few random people bought me drinks after that. Few hours later me and my girlfriend decide to leave, cause it's late and we actually have to be up early for a boat cruise tomorrow. So we're on our way to the car and this guy starts walking next to us. He's mumbling something in Arabic so we couldn't really understand what he was saying. We just say "No thanks" out of instinct and try to ignore him. He's walking on my girlfriend's side. He comes closer and closer to her and then... i don't know it looked like he was trying to grab her. I'm not really sure what exactly happened next but i started chasing after him. Little did he know that i was a star athlete in school. He ran in to a little ally way kind of thing and i caught up to him, grabbed him by the neck and he kept saying "Khalas" which basically means finished. So i decided to turn around and walk away and then he mumbled at me "I [bleep] your mother" which is basically he worst kind of insult for Arabs. And then he ran off again. I chased after him, caught him and just decided to punch him. I have to say, that although i hate fighting (i don't mind confrontation if i know i'm defending the right people, but actual fists fights i dislike) it felt glorious. Watching him clench his face and moan in pain brought me so much joy at that moment. It kind of made me sorry that i didn't get two or three more in.

So yesterday me and my girlfriend were talking on the phone. I mentioned to her that i was excited for the new Game of Thrones season to start. "Sometimes it's like watching porn with an actual story line". This sparked a conversation about porn. She started asking me about what kind of porn i was into, etc. Now, to be quite honest, i don't really watch porn all that much. Obviously there's no use telling a girl this because most of them assume that guys spend their entire day browsing porn. But fact is, for the past 2 years i haven't been watching a lot of porn. I don't know if this is because my sex life has been better than it used to be, or if it's just a result of my day life. I study a lot and when i'm either too tired to move, or i just have a severe headache. Me and my girlfriend are also pretty active, in my opinion anyway. But yeah, i told her that i'm not really an "active porn watcher" so i don't think i really have much of a preference. I don't have any fetishes, or anything like that. She asked me if i would find it weird if we watched porn together. She told me that she had never watched porn before. I'm not sure if i want to believe this or not, but i doubt she would have any reason to lie to me about it. I went on to tell her that i didn't think she would actually enjoy porn (based on things i know about her). Nevertheless i gave her 2 links to 2 videos and told her to watch them and told me how she felt about it. She watched them, and gave me her opinion on it. Then she told me that she wanted to see me (this was at around 11pm). Anyway, that's not the point of the story. My question is this: Is it good or bad? I've always felt like porn is the one thing that will always be "my little secret" simply because a girl wouldn't really want to watch it with me. I understand they are human just like men, but i always assumed that it did nothing for them. Perhaps i am naive. Should i see this as a good thing? Should i jump at the opportunity to watch porn with her? Obviously i'm not saying it's going to become the only thing we ever watch, but i'm sure she's going to want to do it in the near future.

I actually know 2 people that kind of fell for something similar. One of them was PM'd by a player directing him to a website to "sign up to become a player moderator". He did so. Last i heard he quit because he lost everything.

116m DG and 52m Mage today

What a stupid thing to say...honestly.

Sigh... this is why i need to pay more attention my posts.... Yeah i meant 24m...

Got 24k Firemaking a few days ago, 115m DG yesterday, and 28m Slayer today :D Also, the onyl real "stat update" i can give is that i now have Comp Cape. I think last time i posted on this was when i still only had max cape.

I'm not sure on viewership to be honest. I don't think it was as much as last year's, but probably close. Ghosts might not be as good as BO2 (i agree with you on that), but the gameplay in terms of competitive is still fast paced and exciting. I think i actually enjoy it a bit more than i did BO2.

I think one other thing we can all agree on is that you shouldn't be so quick to dismiss the educational choices of others when you spell "bachelor's" as "batchellors." That's kinda funny. Anyway, i think the same can be said for many other degrees and positions. I have a few friends who spent ~$100k on pilot's licenses and they flip burgers at Mc Donalds at the moment. My Uncle actually has a degree in Clinical Psychology and he works as some sort of Consultant the Municipality. My other uncle has some degree in... i'm not sure but something to do with Politics as well as some kind of Strategic Military something (i never really cared enough to find out exactly) and he has his own IT business. A girl that lives with us has a degree in HR Management but works as an Events Manager. The two maybe ties in somehow, but not really. These are 4 examples of people doing something completely different than what they spent years studying for in today's life and in the "good old days". I'm sure if i went around asking a few other people what they studied for, and what they actually do i could easily find plenty more examples. I think this actually just goes to show that in today's world it's not about what you know anymore. It's all about who you know. My sister was head of the Legal Department at an Architecture company and she never even finished her first year of Law School. Heck, when i was 19 i was offered a job as an English Tutor for around $3k a month and my English is probably just on par in terms of American/British standards (although that makes it way above par for Middle Eastern Standards). But still, i got a C for english in High school and this institute was still more than willing to employ me. With this in mind you might as well say getting any sort of degree is a waste of x-amount of money.

Let's see how long it lasts this time.

Anyone watch the COD Champs last weekend?

Just another weekend that started off great and ended with some drama. On Friday evening me and my girlfriend went to a beach bar with some friends at one of the hotels. We had a few drinks (i was on water/soda cause i had to drive). At around 1am we got tired because we had been at a festival all day long, throwing powdered paint at each other. So we decided to make our way home. On our way out i had to make a stop at the restroom to wash my hands. On my way to the restroom i i walked past an arabic guy, mumbling to himself. Thought to myself he was probably just a bit drunk. So i did my business, and on my way back to my girlfriend i heard some commotion coming from outside. I heard a guy with a fairly strong arabic accent talking pretty much at the top of his voice. Couldn't really make out what he was saying. Like a second later, just as i turned the corner i heard my girlfriend yelling "[bleep] off!" to some guy as he seemed to attempt to touch her. I completely lost it, and jolted at the guy. Without really asking any questions i flung myself at him. Grabbed him by the neck, introduced him to my right hand fist and he fell on the ground. Moments later we were met by bouncers and the night manager. They escorted all three of us to their security room and kept us there till the police arrived. When the police arrived they asked us what had happened. I explained to them everything the way i saw it, so did my girlfriend, and so did the other guy. As it turns out she was standing there waiting for me to come back, when this guy walked past her and asked he "How much?" She ignored him, and he didn't like it so he kept pestering her asking her the same thing over and over till she told him to [bleep] off, at which point he tried to touch her. And that's where i cam into the picture. As far as the Saudi was concerned, he was asking for directions and my girlfriend just started racially slur him. Then for no reason at all i decided to deck him. Since he is an Arab, in an Arabic country, the police was almost convinced by his story. He claimed that he never tried touching her either. So i told them to go look at the Surveillance Cameras. We go to the beach bar fairly often, so i knew there was a camera right outside where she was standing, and it would give a fairly decent view of what happened. I wouldn't be in the picture until i was basically on top of him, but that didn't really matter. So we sat around for 30 minutes while they organized with the Security Manager to look at the footage. At this point the Saudi started looking really nervous and tried telling the police that it was a misunderstanding and we don't need to go further. He was saying all of this in Arabic, so me and my girlfriend had no idea what was going on. Both of us were getting really nervous. So i asked the one officer what was going on, and he explained to me. I told him that i wouldn't be satisfied if they dropped the case, and that i want this to be resolved my way or i would make a quick call to my lawyer. They were very understanding, and the three of us, along with the 2 officers, the night manager and the security manager went into their security room to look at the footage. From the footage we saw my girlfriend standing there, on the phone. The guy (same guy i walked past on my way to the toilet) walked past her, turned around and said something to her. She turned her back on him, and he started moving closer still saying something. This went on for about two minutes as he was talking to her back while she was still holding the phone to her ear. And this is when he decided to try and put his hands around her, from the back. Moments later you see me flying into the picture. The police stood there for a few seconds whispering at each other. They told me and my girlfriend we were free to go, but i should be expecting a call from them tomorrow morning to go to the police office to write a statement. During all of this commotion one of the bouncers knocked my phone out of my girlfriends hand while trying to drag me off the other guy. Screen ended up breaking :( Saturday morning i got the call, and we went in. My girlfriend and i both wrote statements. They asked her if she wanted to press charges for sexual harassment, and she did. They asked me if i wanted to press any charges, and i told them i just want the guy to pay for replacing my phone and paying any hospital fees for my fractured finger. We left the police station maybe 30 minutes later. Earlier today i got a call from one of the officers from that night telling me that the guy apparently had started working at a company here about 4 weeks ago, but because of Friday evening he now has a criminal record. His company fired him, cancelled his work VISA and he was put on the first plane back to Saudi. I was kind of confused at to how all of this went so fast but the police officer explained that 2 weeks ago this guy got himself in a similar situation so they managed to make it a priority case. I got re-reimbursed for my phone that got broken and also for the hospital bills. I found it quite hilarious when the police told me he wanted me to pay for his hospital bills, because apparently i broke his nose and fractured his cheek bone. But seeing as he was found guilty that was all scrapped. The hotel called me about 2 hours ago apologizing for what happened and invited me and my girlfriend for a dinner for two at any of their restaurants, at their expense. My girlfriend was quite pleased with this.

I am not sure about Titanfall, but i know on CoD PC didn't have any aim assist. So playing with a controller often put you at a disadvantage because it's hard to be as accurate with a Controller as it is with a Mouse. Perhaps it's the same with Titanfall, which would explain your accuracy.

:o My girlfriend's younger sister is studying there.

Festival of Colours. Was so much fun.

Well, the one reason i didn't really consider this was because i was unsure if using "lesser" gear would still be somewhat effective. Since i don't have Virtus (Book, Wand, or Armor), the best Power Gear i would be able to afford is going to be Sub and probably Abyssal Wand and Orb to go with that. If i can still get around 300k xp/h (in total) then it might still be something i can look into. Fletching bows should still be a decent way of afking. Thanks for the advice :)

Life is so hard.

Friend and I are having a "race" to 1b total exp. I am about 180m short of that, and i've decided to go with some of the more afk skills. Currently i'm doing Cooking (Rockails), which is getting me around 350k exp/h @ about 2gp/exp. I'm fine with this, but obviously i don't want to do that the entire time. So i' also doing some Firemaking here and there using the Jadinko Lair. I'm actually not sure what my exp/h is, as i've not paid much attention to it. Only reason i've been doing it is because from what i know it's meant to be pretty fast, it's free, and it's semi-afk as well. Are there other methods that are faster, but don't cost too much? And then i'm also doing a Daily DG task, with Sinkholes, which brings in about an average of 350k exp a day for about 15 mins' of play. I'm also doing my Daily Abyssal Demon task, which is probably another 200k xp in around 40 minutes (this i'm doing mostly for some "profit" to pay for cooking). And then lastly i do a few herb runs here and there. Mostly because i have a lot of bonus xp in farming, but also because it pays for cooking. I've been thinking about doing some Fletching, because it's my lowest skill at the moment and it's also something i can afk. Problem is, i have no idea what i should be doing. I've got no idea about exp rates, nor gp/exp. I don't really want to do something that's going to break my "bank". If there's something in the same price region as Rocktails, whilst still being decent exp/h (maybe in the region of Rocktails too) that would be great. But as i said, i am clueless about this. As for anything else, i'm unsure. If anyone could suggest some "afk" skills that don't cost an arm and a leg, but also bring in some decent xp, it would be great. Thanks in advance.

Really enjoyed this quest. Was shorter than i expected, had a few fun combat moments, some fun puzzles. Thanks to Gwyn for helping me on a few parts i got stuck on :D

I had a similar problem when i switched from console to PC. At first i had a lot of trouble, but once i customized the keys to something i was more comfortable with, got a decent mouse that didn't jump all over the place, and actually allowed myself some time to get used to the changes it actually became so easy. I'd actually go as far as saying that playing FPS games on PC makes aiming so much easier. As far as Titanfall goes: I've seen some gameplay on YT. I wouldn't say i'm overly impressed. Kind of looks like a hybrid between Halo and CoD. Not something i'm overly excited about. Definitely not worth buying an xbox one just for this. I heard that it will be coming out on the 360 in the future (but only 30 fps), so i might give it a go then. Still not sure if it's really worth it. I feel like most FPS games these days are the same thing in different outfits.

Well i did spend a week in Vegas. But yeah i know Florida probably isn't the best place to go to get the full American experience. There are a few places here and there, in Florida, but it probably doesn't even compare.

Ninja fixes look pretty solid.

That always used to be my biggest fear, and still kind of is. But if you're flying regional, it should be extremely easy not to mess things up. I assume you're going down to Daytona? Should be one heck of a good time. I remember last year me and my friends drove there, and stayed for a few days. Was insane. Never seen so many drunk, hot girls in one place at the same time.
