thanks, Sluggo, I'll try, but I also WANT to make mistakes, as  it's about damn time that I did SOMETHING!

Mistakes are not a bad thing when we learn from them, and we all make them, but they are just that.  Mistakes.  Doing things on purpose with the intention of having things go bad is just, well, stupid.  Doing things with the intention of taking risks and learning things is what makes us human.  But we are fools if we don't weigh the risks first hand.  I'm really just trying to speak in general terms and let you apply what you want.  It's your life.

Granted, maybe Darth Solo's case is an extreme one (my apologies in advance DS) but I'd prefer to learn from his example than repeat his footsteps.

Not trying to be preachy, but I just wanted to chime in with a bit of advice.  

thanks Sluggo, I appreciate it. Of course my aim is to try and learn from my mistakes. I can't say I ever did (lol) but I'll try...

And yes, you have stumbled into a lolcat duel. Now if you'll kindly excuse me....

Or maybe she is just an alcoholic.

I wouldn't mind that... lol 

But seriously, the thing that hit me was that she was continously filling up my cup, as soon as I emptied it (which I did in a jiffy), and that she did it with a smile.... with a smile... almost like... I don't know... it kinda makes me think of a Bond villain, just without the evil... "yesss, drink it, drink more, moooore... mwhahahahaahah!!!!"

 My advice:  Be mindful, young apprentice.

thanks, Sluggo, I'll try, but I also WANT to make mistakes, as  it's about damn time that I did SOMETHING!

No need for a room, a car is all I need lol

Already read the Gibson thread... honestly, if he is a good actor, I won't care.

Also regarding the historical inaccuracies... Amadeus was also completely inaccurate, but I remember it as a fun movie, so I won't have any prejudice about it, I'll just enjoy the movie, which from what I've read sounds pretty epic.

Okay guys, as I already posted in the "last movie seen" thread, a question.

Note: I know, this is gonna sound random, but also foolish, childish, or whatever, but this is intended to be half-serious, meaning that I will appreciate some serious replies, but I also encourage you (I'm looking at you, Frink... Mhh-hey-hey mmh glavin :) ) to be silly, I won't get offended.

okay, here goes.

What does it mean when a girl gets you drunk?

Let me elaborate on this:

She's a girl that I kinda dig, a little older than me, and we were out with some other friends, at a little restaurant. They were just drinking, I was the only one to eat something.

After a while my meal got really... well it got me thirsty, and I had already finished my beer, so I casually told her (we were sitting next to each other) "Too bad I hadn't ordered water, also, cause this is making me thirsty", and she said : "I've got some wine in the car. If you want some I'll go get it." (mind you we were outdoors )

So I say yes, thanks, I'll have some. Well, long story short, even after leaving the place and while continuing the evening, we both drank and drank from that bottle, and she kept on filling my paper cup, until she was kinda intoxicated, and I was absolutely piss-ass drunk. Really, this was probably the first time in my life I had so much alchohol that I could not keep my balance, and the next morning I had a hungover, also first one.

And I was thinking (and I'm sure I even asked her) why? I know she is a fun-loving person, but could there have been some (other) purpouse? There's a little spot in my mind that says she could be interested in me...

Has this happened to any of you? What are your thoughts?

C3PX is right, Warbler.  You're only going to get out of your single-man duldrums if you pull yourself out... no one else is going to do it.  Take your fate into your own hands, go and rob a bank if you have to (maybe that could be your date... it doesn't cost anything as far as I can tell) get some cash and start asking.  The worst they can do is say no.  And laugh at you.  Or maybe stab you...  But they'll probably say yes.

Get started today!

As long as you see Inception.  ;)

actually I'm kind of in a similar, very similar situation as Warbler's. Awkward with girls, no cash, and sometimes depressed cause I feel lonely.

So I think this is the right time to ask you guys a question. However this feels more like a "Random Thought" than a "Last movie seen", so I'll post in that thread.

I recently saw Toy Story 3. It was satisfying. The 3d wasn't annoying, at least to me, the emphasys was on the story, which, for what it was, was well written. I mean, 1st one came out in 1995, 2nd one came out in 1999, this one this year, 2010. With all these years apart you'd think they'd have time to screw up, like a certain George we all know. But not Pixar.

The only thing that left me a bit sad is that I didn't have my glasses, as they were broken and under repair, so I had to watch a really blurry movie. But this didn't stop the 3d effect from doing its job, wasn't expecting that!

I had a colleague from university with me, and he had never seen the other 2 before, so I helped him catch up, we saw them together before this third one. Even though he had not grown up with the Toy Story series, he liked the fist one (we couldn't finish the second one but I guess he liked it) and he was certainly moved, like me, by Toy Story 3.

So, hats off to Pixar!

Anyway... I read it... So, I was possessed by the old man in scene 24? How did that happen?

He was a bit rude, wasn't he? Sorry some of you got thrown into the gorge, I'm sure he was just following the rules.

Well, all's well all that ends swell, right Ric Olie?

Now, let's all head to Swamp Castle. I've heard there's a big wedding there. Maybe we can catch some of the buffet, if we hurry up!
