    I don't trust any woman who can hit balls with that kind of ferocity.

    I still can't believe badminton's an Olympic sport.
  • edited August 2008
    There's also a 20km walk as an Olympic sport. Hell, I could do that.
  • edited August 2008
    Oh yeah, forgot about that, but you're right, it's even worse than badminton.

    Ryan, have you SEEN those walkers? Oh. My. God. I always love to watch them, they're so cute! And intense! You couldn't RUN as fast as they walk, nor for as long.
  • edited August 2008
    Where the hell'd you come from? Anyway, yeah, plus they have really insane rules, like, your knees have to be locked when you're shifting your weight over that leg.

    Adam, your little friend Ryan has betrayed your long kept secret to me. You have been hiding it from me for more than two years, and it is time to wreak my vengeance!

    Do people naturally walk like that or is it just a silly made up rule?
  • edited August 2008
    I think they need complex rules to make sure people don't just start running. Funny Olympic sport, though.
  • edited August 2008
    Yeah. And you must have at least one foot touching the ground at all times, so no skipping. Ecuador won the silver in that 20 KM walk, and has won gold once and set some world records I think. Jefferson Pérez is the only good olympic athlete we have. However, he totally makes up for our lack of other athletes, the guy's a hero.

    I hid nothing. You just never asked about it.
    Also, No. yes. It's a way to ensure people aren't jogging. Since you really can't tell if someone is using the energy conserving method of allowing muscle elasticity to maintain momentum, or cheating and actually contracting their muscles.

    and yes, that's another one.

    Adam, true. And I DID see you guys hanging around here after school some days. But I always figured it was your secret man playground, no girls allowed.

    ...I will continue trying to picture muscle elasticity to maintain momentum in my head...

    She knows about the Secret Man Playground, Adam. This is bad.

    biffibisquiby: there's really no girl in north dakota that's worth a date or two?
    takeru126: There is, yeah
    takeru126: But those girls don't seem to want to date me
    takeru126: they "just got out of a tough relationship" or "don't want to lose their best guy friend"
    takeru126: And I don't have enough confidence to ask girls who might not be that way out, because of 5 straight years of rejection.
    biffibisquiby: well at least you're attractive, lol
    biffibisquiby: you don't have that going against you
    takeru126: Well, if I could go out every day in my Bardic clothing, I'd be beating ladies off with a stick
    takeru126: or...they'd be beating me off with a stick
    takeru126: ...ouch
    biffibisquiby: beating you off with a stick?
    biffibisquiby: ouch indeed
    biffibisquiby: I don't even know how one would do such a thing
    takeru126: I wonder if that would make a fire...
  • edited August 2008
    "Beat off with a stick" just doesn't work anymore due to modern day slang and euphemisms. I just avoid it.

    Although personally, I think splinters make it even better.

    Does it really count as a convo if only one person speaks?

    No, but it'd be plain silly to being an AIM monologue thread.

    Smash the State!: so you're going to MC their reception, then?
    J.J.: yeah pretty much
    J.J.: god knows how that will go
    J.J.: today is the "reherseal"
    Smash the State!: if you're in the wedding, then the need for a large gift is even less pronounced
    J.J.: I am too obsessed with keeping up apperances
    Smash the State!: I find your lack of iconoclastic response...disturbing
    Smash the State!: the whole gift-giving kabuki play is very outdated
    J.J.: hah, that's a good way to describe it
    J.J.: I guess I will get better at it eventually
    J.J.: everyone will start getting married more from now on
    Smash the State!: all of a sudden we're supposed to be Victorian aristocrats every time someone has a baby or gets married
    Smash the State!: with an elaborate exchange of request notes and thank you notes and thank you notes thanking you for the thank you note and several categories of 'appropriate' gifts based on the social location of every person involved
    Smash the State!: so now I have to don a mercury-cured hat and a monocle just because someone I sort of know is undergoing a routine change of legal tax status
    J.J.: ahahaha
    J.J.: you're right, as usual
    Smash the State!: AS ALWAYS

    Andrew's wedding did had a bride and groom Cthulu. I'd just like to throw that out there.
  • edited August 2008
    You spelled it wrong, poser.
  • edited August 2008
    Did had, Ryan? Please leave China immediately.

    And yes - it is a good social commentary. We no longer know exactly what is proper. Countries with actual set culture, do they have an easier time? Japan, you know... oh, wedding, that'll be $300.
  • edited August 2008
    Exactly. And you even know which envelope is appropriate for each amount of money.

    Ryan says (16:03):
    So let's recap
    Ryan says (16:04):
    You are going to start a triangle scheme of turning tricks to save a lot of money so we can create a megadrill with a minifridge to journey to the center of the earth to steal the megacollection of ultra-hardcore porn that is selfishly hoarded away by the wizards that make the internet work and distribute it to all the men, women, and children of the world.
    Ryan says (16:05):
    Did I miss anything?
    Instant Karma! says (16:05):
    you forgot the vodka
    Ryan says (16:05):
    ...damnit.
    Instant Karma! says (16:05):
    but hey, that's it in a nutshell, more or less
    Instant Karma! says (16:05):
    the details can be ironed out later
    Ryan says (16:05):

    Oh yeah, we did take a bath together! It was after we were done climbing Fuji! Us and the whole bunch of Chinese guys all at once, and the old Japanese guys who were hanging around too! Man that was a sexy time!
