Thread: What's messing with your Groove?

    I'm going to be 10 coins short from reaching "Elite" status at club.nintendo.com You register games and hardware to get points that you trade in for stuff. Other games, cases, posters etc... Register enough stuff within a year and you become elite, at that point they send you a whole bag of random cool crap.

    Really?

    Hmm, I never did this. Would registering several years worth of wii and ds games at once work out for me, or do they realize when the things were bought and laugh in my face?

    Registering a Nintendo DSi serial number, completing the associated survey, and linking your Nintendo DSi Shop to your Club Nintendo account (wireless broadband connection required) = 160 Coins. Click here for more information.
    So, after June 30 I register his that he got for his birthday, and then I register hers when she gets it in mid-July.

    Didn't matter for me, I just registered Yoshis Island DS and I bought that game back in 07. Although the only hardware that gets points right now is the DSi and DSiXL.
    Only works with games that were developed and published by Nintendo I believe. Like Mario, Yoshi, Pokemon, and Wii play/sports/resort type games. They all came with slips in the case that had a code on the back.

    I didn't know about it til I started going through all the gamezone equipment at work and I kept seeing the codes in the packages.

    I looked at the list, I have quite a few. Assuming I can actually find the cases for some of the DS games, that is.

    At any rate, I'm writing myself a note to try and see what happens in July.

    I got a Club Nintendo 2010 calendar for registering like 3 years of games at once.

    Sunday night, about 11:30, I all of a sudden had no internet connection...AT ALL! So, I go looking for the reason why! I even called Qwest and they showed I had a full strength signal! Since I have no TV, the internet is my own form of entertainment...and I have had wicked-bad insomnia for quite a few days now! I get to digging thru my programs and there is all kinds of shit that I sure as hell didn't put on here, to say nothing of all the crap that came loaded on the computer that has expired!

    Sooo, I fucked with it all night Sunday night, finally taking a cocktail break from about 10AM until about 4PM. Then I settled down, with my phone attached to my ear and an old friend who has worked with computers since almost the beginning. With his help, I was finally able to get back online about midnight. But, like usual, I couldn't sleep, so I kept going thru programs and deleting the ones I don't use, the ones that have expired, and the ones I didn't put on here at any time.

    Spent a large part of Tuesday and Wednesday with some old friends who are in town for the alumni reunion this weekend, but when I've been home, I have kept going thru shit! I still haven't got everything cleaned up and cleared out, but getting a hell of a lot closer! AND, my computer is running better than it has in a long, long time.
    I don't have a problem with authority....I just don't like being told what to do!Remember, the toes you step on today may be attached to the ass you have to kiss tomorrow!RIP Fluffy! 01-07-09 I'm so sorry Fluffster! People who don't like cats were probably mice in an earlier life! My mind not only wanders, sometimes it leaves completely!The nice part about living in a small town: When you don't know what you're doing, someone else always does!

    1) Copious amounts of alcohol

    2) Leonard Cohen

    3) ...

    4) Group sex!
    In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
    The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.

    3) and 4) : pics or it didn't happen!

    One of them is hetero, socially awkward, will be avoiding alcohol, and doesn't realize that he'll be living with two heathens.

    That just gives you a challenge to corrupt him over. It could be a lot of fun!

  13. #1063
    Did I mention neither of us finds him attractive in any way? I've known him for six years now, and he doesn't show any sign of changing. But I don't need him to change, I just need them to get along.

    Sounds like a terrible sitcom.

    And i know it shouldnt, but there really is something about people who dont drink that puts me off.
    "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink, because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl.

    Innit.

    The first bloke my ex-fiancée went out with after we split up was a tee-totaller.

    I did wonder if that was an indication of something.

    If you had been in IRC around 10am you'd know the answer to that.

    Yeah, that's to he stage where they devastate your finances

    Really messing with my groove; I bought some milk and frozen yoghurt at a supermarket. At one of the other check out lines there was an obvious alcoholic buying a bottle of white whine. The people in front of me paid their groceries, mine were scanned and I also paid. Then I walked towards the exit, that alcoholic guy was sitting on his hunches near a trash can. He was throwing the winebottle into the trash can, empty. It took him less than a minute to open the bottle and empty it.
    Congratulations America

    3+ hours in a car without AC with tropical temperatures outside.

    Not necessarily.

    Mine came back after one semester. Temporarily. But that turned out to be a good thing for him (and our finances). It's less humiliating to come home at 19 than 25 or 35....
