I hate to tell you this, but being drunk is the very antithesis of drinking in moderation.

Also, don't be so sure that you did something wrong.  Girls just do that sometimes.  You're young; there will be others.

Are you serious?  Next time you pull something like that, you're banned.

Nintendo said what they showed at E3 is basically it for the year.
WLSI and KSSU will be playable at PAX though.

50 - 150MB is not bad at all for Firefox.  If you have extensions, try uninstalling them.
