Will Ryu ever sticky this thread?
Or would Karen shoot it down minutes later?

i don't think this thread has that much staying power for it to be stickied. that, and it would pose a threat to the force, and to all sith in existence, LOL.
Or would Karen shoot it down minutes later?
shoot it down?!.......well, i've been used as target practice many a time back in the day..
What if I were a moderator of the forums?
then the forums would be all lollipops and candycanes, with gnomes running around breaking peoples' knnecaps with said candycanes, and anarchy would run rampant across the world, bringing fear and despair wherever it showed.....or it would just be the way it is now, whichever comes first.

if i knew of someone who was selling a decent car for 900 bucks, i would buy it up in an instant. sadly, i am without a car and license, but i shall have them soon.....i hope.

i'm not sure what you mean by this, but im guessing it has something to do with work. one of the main issues with that is this: distance is ALWAYS an issue.

don't think that way, Kaz. it's nothing to do with luck, its distance. and i'll say it again and i'll keep saying it: you ARE wanted there.
also, should I exclude myself from trying to go?
don't exclude yourself from trying to go. you'll make it out to gatherings, sooner or later; don't give up and keep trying at it.

this is me saying this with all meaning: don't give up. never give up.

if i stopped trying when i was in high school, i never would've graduated, and who knows where i would be...

the working life is pretty good. i actually love this job alot more than my last job. this job always keeps me busy, i always have something to do, and i never get bored. IT FUKKKEN ROCKS!
Any good deals?
well, right now there isnt much in deals yet; just the regualr specials every week since sale prices change every friday.
Whats the word around the water cooler these days?
ironically, we dont have a water cooler, but there isnt much talk around it, LOL.
So give us a random factoid about your work/store/history.

random work factoid: ive gotten more small injuries at this job in the last month than i did in the last year. its funnny, but i survive

Serious answer:you are barnes; but if you are referring to where you got the idea for your screenname, then i have no clue.

What should I eat during Fanime?
anything that is not from the food stand in the back of the dealers' room.
What should I buy at the Swap Meet?
anything that you think is worth buying.

Am I a scrub? (at video games)
im probably alot worse than you, so no.

Is Stuntman Mike (GrindHouse) really dead?
i wouldn't know the answer to that, since i havent seen grindhouse.

Quote from: KazukoDear Dr. O

lol. but seriously, you'll get out to more gatherings. i've got a couple ideas brewing, some better than others.

also, what games are affordable for the DS? (got mine today in PINK <3)
well, thats kinda hard for me to say, since the last ds game i bought was last year. some good recommendations for games are New Super Mario Bros., Animal Crossing, Pokemon Diamond/Pearl, and a few others i can't remember ATM...

Dear Dr. O,

It seems I have a few "YOU FAIL DO BETTER" GIFs from the Bday/CTF gathering.  Should I post them in its respective gathering thread, create a "YOU FAIL/HUZZAH PIC THREAD" at the /b/ forum, or possibly forever wait for appropriate posts to post one?

Much Hugs and Kisses,
