It’s how it starts.

No. It really isn’t.

Yep. soon there will be nukes. And then you’ll be screwed, won’t you?

Looks like Texas has the highest amount of signatures. Wasn’t Texas about the only state that voted for Romney?

No, there were plenty of other low-education states that pulled the trigger on that, as well.

Oh I just realized something wonderful.

For one of my history classes we’re supposed to be reading any historical secondary source and then write a critique of it later. I’ve been either forgetting about this or putting it off, and I was starting to get really stressed out because I haven’t even picked a book yet, but I’ve just realized that I already own and have read a few books that qualify.

I really need to be better about procrastinating, in any case.

Thank you for sharing it, I was lead to it by Samzala.

I’m an idiot, please disregard…

Every time I see this one personal trainer at the gym working boxing pads with her clients all I can think is, “Damn, that’s hot.” Well, that and I need a boxing coach.

So the new Hitman game got a 62/100 on PC gamer for a lot of pretty bad things. Seeing if I can cancel my preorder, first time I have ever done so. I’m pretty disappointed.

I’d wait for more reviews before doing that. After all this is the same PC Gamer that gave Dragon Age 2 a high score.

Tru Dat!

Hey TGP, I hear you’re good at autocad. I want to make a simple model but I haven’t touched autocad in 5 years and even back then I only knew the basic stuff.
Can you point me to some useful sites, wikis, whatnot?
