Jesus CHRIST you’re drunk. It’s a fucking Tuesday for God’s sake.

Haha, back in the day Tuesday was almost always a drinking night for me. I had to get wasted to recover from Monday.

Hahaha, the best part of that is that you were probably drunk the next morning driving into work. On a weekly basis.

If you’re drunk on a Tuesday night you’re either in college or have a serious problem. I hope you’re in college, Aeon221.

Staff_Sergeant · 2008-09-02T20:51:57.000Z

My guess is the latter.

Aeon221 · 2008-09-02T21:02:14.000Z

AHHH THE POSTING IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!!!

edit: This I do not apologize for.

These are not mutually exclusive. Nor is having designated drinking nights healthy.

True, but drinking on the weekend is more socially normal and if you can keep yourself from getting drunk until then you still have some control.

I’m drunk on a tuesday because my 8am PE is cancelled! It is what I do before work and the more classes and then work and then sleep at 11. I have to be up at five for that crap normally because of goddamn Atlanta traffic, so it is cause for celebration! Cancelled should have two Ls, goddamn firefox. And how is it that I sang Oh Darling! and I am sleeping alone? Was I out of key?! That song is like a jedi mind trick, and it means “pull down your pants, let’s see the tapir.” Goddamn. Are lesbian bartenders immune to it do you think? Goddamn. Maybe it’s just because she was 29. That’s like ancient.

Why is everyone so old? You old people ate all the young people I know oh I know oh. Time to hit on an ex! Byebye!

edit: I APOLOGIZE TO ALL OF HUMANITY FOR THE DRUNKEN IDIOCY OF THIS POST.

Brendan:

Do you want a list of quests and their possible solutions already? Whatever happened to the wonder of discovery as you play a game? Methinks too many people want to know too much about games before they are released these days.

I agree, Brendan. This thread is getting dangerously close to actual information about Fallout 3, and I really want it to be a fresh experience.

I want to see some dinosaurs soon or I’m leaving!

What else needs to be said? :-)

Maybe you’re unemployed, like me.

zengonzo:

I don’t believe I’m fighting the battle you think I’m fighting, chief.

But keep the fire going.

Look, I’m about as rational as NMA when it comes to the pop culture references in the original two games. I’ll go off at the slightest opportunity whether appropriate or not.

Fuck you guys that Aeon post was the shit. That’s my kind of craziness.

stillgray · 2008-09-03T00:51:36.000Z

This thread needs a break from seriousness.

Hammet · 2008-09-03T00:54:28.000Z

MrPeng did that kind of … text on the Battlefront forum back in the day. On a regular basis. Good to see there’s new talent keeping up with the old ways. IIRC my first experience of it was in a thread named, appropriately, “Waffen SS are overpriced hamsters!”

Then we had the Peng thread and it was beautiful.

So yeah, Fallout 3 huh?

Ooo, found something neat. Apparently you can become a slaver in this game:

Well in Shivering Isles you could become assistant to the local sheriff (something like that) and torture people to ask them questions for the sake of a quest. It was not very graphic but it was fun nonetheless. Guess the Oblivion haters forgot that one when claiming Bethesda made RPG for kids.

Killzig · 2008-09-03T04:15:00.000Z

Prodigy:

Guess the Oblivion haters forgot that one…

Or they didn’t bother with the expansion pack?

Or maybe before they used fallacious arguments presented as “objective facts” they didn’t even bother reading a FAQ.

zengonzo · 2008-09-03T04:36:34.000Z

I actually really enjoyed Oblivion - so I don’t have much problem with pointing out the flaws in it, and what I’d hope would be different in Fallout 3. Doesn’t mean I hate Oblivion.

As for Fallout 3 not being Oblivion, it’s closer to that game than it is in the original, except for tone and theme, of course. So that’s the best comparison that can be made. And there’s nothing wrong with it being comparable.
