Not sure how legit this is, but if it is 100% legit, GG Bungie, GG.

Well, I apparently fell asleep on the couch watching Ocean’s Eleven, only to wake up and find a fully grown lab and Cocker spaniel suffocating my chest from snuggling.

Well, it appears that I have reached 11 posts per day. Good.

My profile says about 12 posts per day. In the days before Halo 4 came out, I was averaging 50 posts a day, believe it or not. I was posting like crazy. Because of this, it didn’t take me long at all to reach the rank of Spartan (I think I was like the 10th ever Spartan, as well as being on of the top ten posters during E3 2012.) Boy, those were the days.

Woo, i reached lvl 80 Crafting in Runescape, so 19 more levels to go.

And exactly 2 weeks of vacation left.
At this rate, i might get 99 crafting before my vacation is over.

I’m at 9 or 10 posts a day! I try my best!

Nobody ever likes my opinions, though…

I can’t help but feel like I should be upset by recent findings concerning dinosaurs. Many of my friends are all bent out of shape by the idea that many species of dinosaurs they knew as scaley/leathery creatures, actually most likely had some sort of plumage.

This doesn’t bother me at all. I get more and more excited the more discoveries like this they make. I have fond memories of plastic dinosaurs without plumage, but I think it makes them way cooler to imagine them with a thin layer of tiny feathers that carry colors/markings, have predatory significance, mating significance and just makes them feel more real. :smiley:

Sorry, not sorry, I like dinos with feathers!

But there’s proof that they aren’t covered in feathers! Haven’t you every seen Jurassic Park?

I’m kidding.
It doesn’t really bother me. I’ve been a dino lover since my kindergarten years, and always have been a believer that yes, the monsters of that era had feathers. I’ve seen a video explaining that if you alter the embryo of a chicken, you get something very, very similar to either a Rex or Velociraptor (it of course wouldn’t survive).

Single handedly win the round with the worst weapon in the game, taking out 8 of 10 enemy players in the process while last man standing, and nobody bats an eye.

Miss a single AWP shot and everyone loses their minds.

… ahhh, Counter Strike. Yah fickle beast.

It looks like we have to rename Dinosaurs to Feathersaurs.

Just kidding.

How do you people do that?
Im struggling to get at least 3 posts a day.

Ahhh…Some say I am too critical…I say they are not critical enough…they say who cares as long they have fun, they don’t care when people have issues as long as it works for them it is 100% okay.

I am sick of people who don’t care about the future, I am tired of people that disagree with something but just say “get through it, it can not be changed” they are right when everyone looks at it like that. I know there are people out there holding the torchs for us, people doing all they can to help others…it is our duty to carry on their adventure, to complete their story.

My hopes for the future is that we follow in the foot-steps of these men and women who do the little things to make all of our futures bright. Another thing that bugs me is how a lot do not care about others legacy, that one makes me extreamly sad…I feel no matter how small or big their feats were they deserve to be remembered(might be a typo). I wish more people cared about others is all.

Oh God, the trading limits in GE suck so much -YOINK-…

The fastest and most cheapest way to train Crafting is making Air Battlestaffs, but you can only buy 100 battlestaffs from GE every 4 hours, because reasons…
I could get 99 Crafting in 3-4 days if i could buy as many battlestaffs as i want, but no.

I hate Jagex for forgetting the Crafting skill… Why isn’t there a good and fast way to train Crafting in the game?
RuneCrafting has Runespan, Mining has Living Rock caverns, and even Slayer has Kuradal and her Slayer Dungeon.

Well, Done and done. Pre-ordered the Xbox One With Kinect.

I can’t imagine 343 won’t add it in features like they did in Halo: CEA and I think it will be more important later one down the road.

Also all the new things the ONE can do relies mostly on the Kinect.

I used to have 20 at one point, but then the year kinda destroyed it.

> TELL me not, in mournful numbers,

> For the soul is dead that slumbers,

> Life is real! Life is earnest!
> And the grave is not its goal;
> Dust thou art, to dust returnest,

> Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant!
> Let the dead Past bury its dead!

This kinda fits what you’re saying, Kit.
If anybody is scratching their head as to the meaning of this poem, I’ll break it down for you in my own words.

We are all here to make an impact, but you won’t if you just sit around all day. We aren’t just here to be on our merry little ways to in the end, just die. We are to make a difference in somebody’s, a family’s, a group’s, a nation’s, maybe ever the entire world’s lives. We are here to find our selves farther ahead in life then a previous day, to get somewhere in one thing or another.

Death is coming. We can’t avoid it. But what we can avoid is your legacy.
Time is fleeting, but art, what we do in life, is infinite.
Beethoven was what, two or three centuries ago? And we still listen and play his music, what he left behind, to this day.

Don’t be a follower, be a leader, take control of the situation, this your life, and don’t let anybody talk you into anything stupid. Let your past mistakes be, do not dwell upon them, learn from them. And everything can change in the future.

Pretty much, that poem’s meaning is to do something with life.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Off-Topicing.
We apologize for the inconvenience of long posts nobody probably cared to read. :stuck_out_tongue:
