I ran a poll on fb for the name, but one of my friends posted the poll on a Gilmore Girls subreddit, and the poll got more votes than I have fb friends.

But what won?

I've just spent a whole month in Italy teaching English for three weeks and then I went to a wedding.

I'm in a great place mentally, and it really throws me how life can go from awful to amazing so rapidly -

 

I am moving away for my second degree (lectures start on October 2nd) and I feel like it'll be really weird not being in a lab, or learning about complex scientific theories... but I'm ready for the next adventure

Nice one, RPG.

 

Turns out, I can get a restricted motorcycle license here in New Zealand within a very short time. So my plan for a trip to ride a bike from here back to my homeland seems to be back.

 

Pretty weird country.

 

Also, I'll be driving a Mclaren 720S tomorrow and a Ferrari GTC4 Lusso on Saturday.

HOLYYY [bleep].

So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

 

RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.

Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.

Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.

I strike out every other week.

Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.

Randox pretty much stays rational.

Etc, etc

So i think my friend's overthinking a situation and he thinks he's not, but still doesn't know quite what to think. Basically here's the story: He's been talking to a ex for a while now. He lives here, and she lives in Oregon. The dated for a few months before breaking up. They never really had any problems, they just broke up because she moved states (originally she lived in California which is where they met when he was attending a school there for a couple of years). They kind of lost touch, but started talking again recently. From what he tells me they never really talk about anything intimate. It was sort of like a long-distance friend/pen-pal situation with some very subtle flirts here and there. Subtle enough to hardly even recognize most of the times. Anyway, so a few days ago she randomly sent him a Snapchat. Nothing strange, just a normal selfie before she left the house that night to go out with her friends. Honestly, i had no idea why he showed me, but he told me he thought it carried some sort of significance because in all the time they've been talking she has never personally sent him a picture of herself. 

 

I told him that he was probably just overthinking the situation, but he insists that there's some meaning behind the situation. She's never sent him anything before, so why now? He's also been talking to her about moving back to the US in the near future because he has some possible job opportunities there, so he thinks it might have something to do with that. I don't want to crush his hopes or anything, but i just think he's misjudging the situation a bit.

She 100% sent that selfie to everyone on her snap list

Apparently he asked her about it and she said she just felt like sending it to him. And funny enough he kinda pulls on the regular. He's never really had any trouble in that department, but for some reason he seems really stuck on this girl. I think it's mostly just the "can't have what you want" thing.

last I heard people are so sick of microtransactions in rs3 that there is as much outrage right now as there was when eoc was launched.

 

Sad to see that game finally die, but I definitely can't see it ever regaining new players

I don't know if that's quite accurate. They've balanced some of the recent promotions in such a way where if you play a ton, you can at least achieve the rewards, or alternatively pay money to speed it up, and that seems to satisfy most people. And the rest of it people pretty much accept and it becomes just the default thing to complain about.

"Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for." Can games be art?

Scored a date with an Air Hostess that was on the flight with me the other day. The entire flight she was flirting with me, or at least i assumed that's what she was doing. So after the flight i asked her for her number, asked her out yesterday, and she said yes. Really cute Indian girl.

There's still some areas here on the far side of the Earth that are absolute crazyness to me. People riding on the wrong side of the road. Constant speeding. Max speed on rural roads is 100.

Blatant disregard to safety, or, on the contrary absolute control over it due to a huge amount of occupation-related and traffic-related deaths.

 

At least already made some local acquaintances aswell.

Anyone mind taking a look at something for me? Looking to build a new PC. Pretty much clueless on the topic. Took someone else's build and replaced some of the parts that weren't available for shipping, with similar parts that are available for shipping. Just wanted to know if what i have is fine.

The case is still somewhat up in the air. Still trying to find something that pleases the eye. But aside from that, is what i currently have in mind fine?

Welp. I ordered the parts. Decided to get a new Mouse and Keyboard too. There goes $2000. Not gonna lie, but i'm surprised how much i was able to get with $2000. I was expecting to have to spend a lot more for what i got. I probably went a bit overboard with what i got, considering i'm only really going to use it for stuff like Smite and Runescape. At least now i'll finally also be able to play some of the Steam games i couldn't play on my Laptop, which i just realised i have a lot of.

What's the max speed up your way? 100's normal over here in Aus too.

In most of Europe, it is 90. In Norway, where I have lived most of my summers, it is 80. In Sweden, it is now 70.

 

Most of my driving (by kilometres) has been done in Norway, and that 20 km/h difference is quite substantial actually.

In suburban areas our speeds are limited to 80, and 60 on some roads. Most other roads are limited to 80, with some at 100. Even the highways are 100. Think there's 1 highway that's limited to 120, but that's the one leading to Saudi. And these days it's so risky to break the limit because of the amount of radars/cameras around and with how high fines are. 100 feels hella slow for a highway. When i was in South Africa the other week, where highways are 120, it felt like we were zooming. Literally gave me anxiety. 

 

On a different topic, slightly annoyed. So i ordered the parts for my PC yesterday. Came to a total of 1950 including a mouse and keyboard. Shipping is going to cost anywhere from 300-500 depending on who i use. Kind of ridiculous paying 15-20% of the actual purchase for shipping. But there's really no other way. Can't buy the components here, because they don't sell most of it here. And even if they did, the prices would be so inflated that it would end up more than paying for shipping. Funny though, the case costs 110 and the shipping for that alone is 150. It's insane. But it's done now. Should be getting the parts soon.

A little bit of runescape popped up in my life today:

 

https://compete.kotaku.com/20k-runescape-tournament-cant-decide-a-winner-because-1818976318

 

Its amazing how often I visit a runescape fan forum and how much I haven't heard about this, lol. I'm sure there's a post about it somewhere on this forum, but I'm not gonna go digging through the rs section to find it.

 

 

In related news, I suddenly really wanna listen to runescape music again.

Honestly I'm shocked people still play it at all. I can't imagine someone in 2017 coming home from school/work and logging into the 'scape
