The cafe's over that way, *points toward the elevator* on the 2,677th floor I think. You just walked into the Venting thread. Here, you have to bitch about stuff you don't like, or whatever.

(I'm reminded of that Monty Python sketch about the Complaints department; anybody remember that one? LOL!)

There you go, rohirrim! That's a very valid vent. You're getting there... but you've got some tough acts to follow. There's some pretty professional venters around here, let me tell you - myself not least of all!

I'm scared of getting lost, so I always stand up when I'm taking the bus. If I sit down, I might get lost in my thoughts. If I get lost in my thoughts, I might miss my bus stop. Today I almost missed my bus stop by getting lost in my thoughts, and last week I dozed off on the bus . I jerked awake and stood up immediately, thankful that I hadn't missed my stop during that period.

That's a legitimate fear, Lief I daresay. I can relate, about the "getting lost in thought" problem making you miss your stop and all. I'd never, never doze off, though, impossible since I never, never close my eyes in public, or even around acquaintances. I'm weird like that. Go figure.

Yes, that's good, Rohirrim. Let into your anger. Only your hate can make your campaign manager's time worthwhile.
And go to mapquest...

I usually only experience that when I'm very tired. When I'm staying up late, my eyes sometimes get just fastened open very wide. Blinking becomes uncommon. I didn't know that might happen because of public places, with some people. I guess it's probably something psychologically based, like sleeping.

I detest apathetic grouchers like you that just hang around, pretending to be grouchy, when real grouches like me grouch all about in utter fury. Your pretense at grouchiness is really disgusting and weak. Get a life.

Do it rohirrim. Strike him down with all of your hatred. Or maybe just settle it over a cup of tea...

It will not turn him to the Dark Side. He's got a long way to go before he becomes like us true sadists .

I'm afraid I don't remember him very well, though I do remember urging him to join our then active Entmoot RPG called "Hytorax". If I ever get contact with him again, I'll urge him next to come to Atharon .

Vent: Threads I love are sinking to the depths of GM page 2! I don't have time to save them!!! NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dinosaurs, Philosophy, Israeli Territory, come back!

(Acts swiftly) I've temporarily rescued the Theology thread, brought it back where Butterbeer might notice it. There's certainly more work left to do, however, which waits on me!
