Heh, sounds like ME and my clients that use confetti and/or glitter.

That stuff needs to be banned and killed. With FIRE! :/
(I just had a Mardi Gras Krewe in my space that is famous for covering the ENTIRE audience and stage with confetti. I dislike confetti.)
There is currently SO much glitter in the cracks of the building, in 100 years when they finally tear it down and replace it, and the dust settles, they will discover that the dust WAS glitter, and it is STILL in the building! ;P

I got to be a face in the crowd in the music video for "I" by the band Perfect Pussy (who suck, by the way; also, at about 0:55, you can see me getting shoved face-first into the drum kit), and halfway through the shoot, they started going nuts with silly string, confetti, and yes--glitter. I was finding glitter in my hair for months.


This is why I shave my head.

Do you often have people tossing glitter on you?

Occupational hazard at second job. At least it was for a while.


You're living the life, man.

Congrats! I wish the sound on this recording was better, but I liked what I could hear.

Ha! This was the first response I thought of to Treppa's inquiry. Seriously, you should get glitter hazard pay.

Afternoon all. What did I miss?

The Shadow pushed The Monkey through the rift to a magical reflection of our world where Dave went to fight the giants only to discover he is standing in front of a group of youngsters. The Wizard sent a Scooby Gang to recover the Monkey and one of the Dragons failed his feline overlords in their bid for world domination by posting the wrong link. The other Dragon grew desperate and decided to crowdfund a hoard for himself...

How many were removed? The remains of two, was it?

Yes. The remains of the two uppers.

Yes gratz! I'll look into throwing you a few zlotys


Congratulation, Drejk! :)


Awww crap...

A small piece of dental floss got stuck between my sixth and seventh tooth (or should it be a plural in En when listing that something happened between two specimens of the same type), lower left... I can't remove it - I can't get a good hold on it with my fingers as the remaining part is too short, and I can't force it away with more dental floss because it doesn't fit between the teeth anymore.

Annoying, especially that it is a few minutes past Midnight between Saturday and Sunday. Hurts only a little bit but the sense of lodged object is terribly distracting.

And there is probably a hidden hole in one of those two (or possibly both) that will need dentist attention soon enough.

Should be "sixth and seventh teeth." There are two of them, but you're only using one noun, so it's plural. However, you could say "sixth tooth and seventh tooth" - in that case they would be singular since you are identifying them each with their own noun (even though it's the same noun).

Anyway, hope you get that floss unstuck!


Drejk,

Try forcing it out by swishing water around.

Hopefully, it will be a welcome surprise.

Ah, so it is different than in Polish, as we would use the singular in such case...

Not yet (it's Sunday noon), though at least it is less bothersome than it was.

Well, slept at a regular time in my own bed, walked an hour in the forest with my puppy, cooked chicken and veg spicy stir fry, went shopping, and made it to the gym.

Yesterday was a very good day.

It's exclusive for your use for 3 months, and then I'll post it. If you want it out in the wider world earlier, I will definitely do that.

Since I don't have family to speak of, I generally splurge for Christmas and my birthday and buy myself something I want rather than need. At Christmas, I bought subscriptions to the Washington Post and NY Times. For my birthday, I bought.... Goat Simulator. >_>

Now I am going to go wreck Goatville.

If , by some astronomical serendipitous chance I should win the $400 million lottery I think I will found Treeforticon, a gaming convention for the heck of it.

But where to hold it?

Boston would be an obvious choice, but so predictable.

NYC? Always a fun time, but they already get a lot of gaming love.

St. Louis would be very central to the US, but I know little and less of that city.

Paris? Fun for the Europeans, tougher for the 'Mericans to get to.

Reykjavik? A cool choice but tough for EVERYONE to get to.

Las Vegas? What happens in Treeforticon stays in Treeforticon...

Havana? Opening new nerd frontiers! Or have gaming cons already reached there?


Bah, go for Indy. Make Treeforticon into the new GenCon.

There's still the 'old' GenCon tho. And its bigger than ever. Why compete?

I'd rather go somewhere that is fun on its own and doesn't have a large convention. Plus, I'm not a big fan of Indiana, for reasons I'm not going to go into here, cuz rulez.

Well, assuming a small private gathering of gaming friends that I could fly out and a few industry folks to run a few games ....

I'd likely vote for June in Reykjavik.

Bigger more spectaculacon? Las Vegas.


How about this...

Find a small farm town in the middle of nowhere. Pay the town to let you turn their park into a temporary campground, and bring in some RVs and campers. Organize a 24-hour LARP of a zombie apocalypse, paying the majority of the townsfolk to play zombies. Load up on NERF, and have a blast.

Now there's a thought! Maybe cruising the Mediterranean so we could stop and get inspiration from all those little Medieval ports.

There are actual castles that can be leased for an organized party/convention here in Poland...

Just saying.


*sigh*

When mother called yesterday with a birthday wishes, she again mentioned something about grandchildren...

I hoped that we have that past us.

I am too old for children now.
