I think he laughed out of thinking she was being sarcastic or that it was too good to be true.

If a girl I liked came up to me and returned the feeling...I'd probably do something stupid. Something way worse than just laughing.

Hope my Halloween party goes over well...

More IRC goodness.

<BriGuy92> Yesterday, on my way home from work, I found a TV sitting on the side of the road.
<BriGuy92> I checked it out, and as nothing seemed to be wrong with it, I took it home.
<Rao> IT WORKS?
<Rao> HOLY COW
<BriGuy92> When I got home, I found that it was missing the cable plug from the back.
<BriGuy92> Like, the thing looked like it had been ripped out.
<Rao> :o
<BriGuy92> So I pondered for a while on what I was to do.
<Rao> ...and?
<BriGuy92> I figured I would find a way to splice a whole cable into the back of the TV.
<Rao> are you creating suspense?
<BriGuy92> But then, I remembered my Sega Genesis RF adaptor!
<BirdPerson> Don't interrupt a story man
<Rao> :o
<Rao> XD
<BriGuy92> It has that little annoying "Antenna" plug on it, that plug that I had never used.
<BriGuy92> So I opened up the adaptor, and I unslodered the plug.
<BriGuy92> I then opened the TV and spent about an hour trying to find a way to solder the plug into the gaping hole in the TV.
<BriGuy92> I eventually, with a little help fom my dad, managed to get it roughly soldered in place, but it wasn't connected properly.
<BriGuy92> I plugged it in, and it worked somewhat.
<BriGuy92> The picture was terrible, however, and I began to wonder if that was the reason it had been thrown out.
<BriGuy92> But just now, I decided to take another crack at it.
<BriGuy92> I opened the TV back up, soldered the connections that I had not yesterday, and reslodered the ones that I had.
<BriGuy92> And behold, a perfectly working TV!
<Rao> sweet
<BriGuy92> I was so happy that I called my dad, who is currently at work.

It's finally raining after this week of fire! It's not very hard, but I pray to God that it gets hard enough to help the firefighters :).

We had a lot of rain this week. It barely put a dent in Tennessee's "exceptional" drought.

I'm hopeful that the remainder of my first semester of college will be as awesome as it has been so far.

Apparently, Japanese is going to become an available course next semester, and I'm definitely going to take it if that's going to happen.

I'm hopeful because I'm currently more obsessed with Guitar Hero than Cloverfield. At least the former is out today; I have to wait almost three months for a movie that doesn't even have a name or plot yet!

On Christmas, I might get Super Paper Mario and Super Mario Galaxy!!!!

I'm pretty happy right now because there's a Halloween party later on tonight and I actually have a decent Weird Al costume ready for it. I probably will have pictures up later.

I'm in a good mood since I'll get to scare little kids with my Dr. Salvador costume. The best part is saying "¡Truco o convite!" instead of "Treat or treat!". Because, y'know. He's Spanish.

Nope, just genuinely found it funny.

Vidgmchtr · « **Reply #2577 on:** October 31, 2007, 08:47:35 PM »

That's still pretty mean.

PaperMario · « **Reply #2578 on:** November 01, 2007, 06:58:39 PM »

For the record, I never really laughed at her. Yes, I should've stated that before, but I was just in a really bad mood. I dunno, I just felt like saying something mean to see the response it would get, which was dumb because the answer is obvious.
I have her number now, and I'm going on a date (feels odd to say that at my age) with her on Saturday. That's nice.

I wish I was cool enough to have girls like me just so I could laugh in their face.

Also, I'm finally close to beating Metroid Prime 3. I would've beaten it a long time ago but 1) I got the game a couple of days before school began 2) I'm a perfectionist and have been backtracking for the powerups I don't have and 3) ever since then life has been screwing with me left and right so playtime was reduced to weekends.

Hopefully I won't have the same problem with Super Mario Galaxy.
