Open Bar MMXIV^2: Solace of Quantum

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

That is seriously kick ass!

What is not awesome is the taxi trip I had back from Gatwick.

Or did not have, rather.  "Waaah, we got stuck in traffic, soz".  No, I pay you to not get stuck in traffic.  I pay you to pick me up at a particular place and a particular time.  You do not renegotiate the time and place because you fucked it up.  You do not cause me to get home nearly 4 hours late after spending half the day travelling. 

[Freeky]

Laaame.

[Cain]

It's entirely possible I could have run back home in shorter time.

Entirely possible if I were an olympic class athelete whose mental map of London is not entirely formed by the underground train network, that is.  But still...

So, really, fuck those guys. I've got shit to do and don't needs to stop for every asshole on the street.

Yup, you deserve better.

[Freeky]

OH GOD MY FINGERS.  SO MUCH BURNING PAIN.  THERE'S NOT EVEN ANY OPEN WOUNDS, WHY YOU BURN ME SO BAD, SPICY?

Shit, beer was a great deglazer;  maybe it'll work as a despicer! 

Update:  FUCKIN' BEER, MAN.  MIRACLE SHIT IN A CAN.  Too bad it tastes awful.

[East Coast Hustle]

I find it starts to get palatable after about the 3rd or 4th one, and goddamn tasty after about the 7th or 8th.

This is the correct culinary approach to beer consumption

[Cain]

Aw, that's cute.

People are calling Bioshock Infinite racist because it....wait for it...shows that violent and bloody revolution by black people is violent and bloody.

I mean, it's totally not a consistent fact of human history that revolutionaries tend to be almost as bad, and sometimes worse, than the people they overthrow.  And if it is, that's just the White Man's history, and so racist. 

Oh, and the whole game up until that point practically beats you around the head with the fact that racism is really, really bad. But never mind that.

(You could also make the argument that, beyond the ethical considerations in and of themselves of discrimination based on innate traits, maybe the reason discrimination is so bad is because it causes a vicious and deadly backlash which, in it's most extreme phases, turns into a literal Reign of Terror?  Just a thought).

I strongly suspect this is residual butthurt over discovering Booker DeWitt was not going to be a wheelchair bound genderqueer proud womyn of colour.  And that I really need to stop reading Tumblr.

[Cain]

Tumblr is such a gigantic bag of unwarranted self-importance and stupid, I almost feel driven to take up blogging again and show the whiney fucks what oppression really is.

But then I'd end up getting sucked into it and hating myself for wasting my time on such hopeless cases in the first place.

I am starting to be concerned that there will be a movie and madly popularize the idea of Discordian witches.

Oh please goddess no.

This board would be overrun by a whole new breed of 'fluffy bunnies'. Just think of all the people you and Dok and y'all would have to punt about.
