Randox Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Spent a weak with my Cousin and her two children (3 and 5). Was a lot of fun, and the kids are relatively low maintenance. Really interesting for me because it's the first time I've ever been around young children for even close to 24+ hours, so I have a much more concrete grasp of the world of being a parent now. Oddly enough, after a week of having almost my entire day revolve around two little people (save the 1-1.5 hours of wine and cribbage once they go to sleep and before we do the same), I think the thing I will miss the least is sleeping in the cottages out building (quilting studio). It's nice in that I don't have to put up with children waking up in the middle of the night, and I can sleep in a bit, but I will not miss having to earn my right to a nights rest by killing one or more bugs every single night. Every night there is a blackly or moth (or both) that needs to be killed, and one night I woke up to the sound of a cricket who was caught in a spiders web (it sounded like someone was clipping their toe nails, which isn't creepy at all when you're waking up at 2am in pitch blackness).

Major Dash Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 So Robin Williams offed himself today.... While I'm really not a fan personally, he entertained millions. “I had a feeling we weren’t coming back from this fight when it began.”“Do you have any regrets?”“I don’t. It seems surprising, I know, but I wouldn’t change a thing. This is how it was meant to be.”“Huh, you never really notice how lovely the day is until you realize you’ll never see it again.”“Mmmhmm.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Pretty sad. I really liked him as an actor. And from what I've read, he was also an all around good person. | My Tumblr | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 As much as I mourn a talented man, one thing pisses me off with his passing; so many people on FB ramble on going "people need to be more aware of depression etc", I want to punch them in the face. Countless times when I've seen and even had emotional breakdowns myself and go through a really bad time due to it, they/I go 100% unnoticed or told to "get over it". They DON'T know what depression's like but claim with a straight face they know for more facebook likes. 6 Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estonian dude Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 What? Where? When? would it be in English, I think. It's a super popular show in Russia, where the audience sends questions and then 6-people teams of quizzers try to answer them. Game lasts til one team gets 6 points and there is 1 minute to answer each question. There are also special rounds n shit. So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

Estonian dude Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Haven't been on this one yet. Been on our Jeopardy and some one-off quiz about the country for high school students on our Independence day. In other news, there is a slight chance I might spend my 21st birthday in the States.

stevepole Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I can't say I know many people who live within a six hour radius of Vegas who share that same opinion, but to each his own. Vegas is a lot of fun, I definitely recommend doing it at least once given the opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasignhagj Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 That was fun, although I think your population figures are a bit off. I conquered the whole world save a few islands and only had a population of 4.6b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Assuming you mean 4.6b, then that's accurate. You really did kill 2.5b people while conquering the world. Shit happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
