RANT: The Clone Wars

[chazzy1864]

When is the last time you guys ate a donut?

Had a cinnabon on Thursday.

Can't recall the last time I had a donut.

[Final_Rep]

So, when are you becoming a Mod?

Maybe never. I supposedly got the nod, but they need a night time mod pretty bad. Daytime is mostly covered pretty well from what I hear.

lolshack: they make them fresh every morning here... so I've avoided them for years... seems like a slippery slope of gluttony

Been a little while

[Hishiad]

I like to be engaged in conversation, activity, etc, at all times. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Even better if it leads to me learning things... which quite often is the case, esp. here in the Rant.

Okay...and your rep power on this forum contributes to engaging in activity and conversation?

[Final_Rep]

Okay...and your rep power on this forum contributes to engaging in activity and conversation?

Not particularly. But it has resulted in some funny videos and conversations so far.

The activities around his rep power yesterday did lead to conversation.

Rep Power: 103

Rep Power: 103

Which is unfortunate because now Manly can't put me into the red like he wanted to last night, heheh

Vox put me into the red, then I climbed out
Then Medjen put me back into the red...

The love, I can feel it.

[Farley1324]

I had a couple bags of krispy kreme powdered sugar donuts last week

So... were you supposed to have your points put back? Or was this a permanent thing..?
I guess I'm still failing to see the purpose behind the whole challenge.

Permanent, as far as I know. It's hard to describe, but it was actually kind of liberating. I dunno how to put it into words? Before this I would look at my CP and reps and try to get more... now, I just lost all of that weight and post freely and don't get obsessive about it. I suppose I was kind of a rep addict, to be brutally honest.

There was definitely no grand purpose. I just wanted to see if I could do it.

lmao

Do what? You're still a rep whore...being a rep whore doesn't mean you only want positive reps, it just means you want people repping you (red or green). At least that's my opinion of one.

Understandable. Like I said, it's hard to explain the feeling that it caused.

I really don't care anymore. I could be red forever... Wouldn't care.

I'm here for the reasons I mentioned to you before.

I <3 my rep power. I enjoy being able to neg idiots into the red.

Weak negs just don't cut it.

[kvk1]

I'm thinking of stopping posting altogether when my post number hits my bodypoints number.

Let's be honest: enough is enough.

Weak negs just don't cut it.

This was probably the big downside to my choice... overall though, I am glad I did it.

Anyway, Hish is right, I'm being an attention whore, so enough of that.

A few weeks ago. Was a pretty good doughnut.

Yeah I left for a long while...and even now my posting is pretty limited. I figure once the weather improves it'll be even more rare that I post. Unless I land a job where I'm not forbidden from viewing the forums on my computer.

[GeneralSerpant]

I only eat donuts to strategically stifle hunger. Conditions of hunger, a sweet tooth, and donuts must be present, simultaneously.

I read a while back, that Colbert was on the daily show before stuart. Never watched it then.

[VoxExMachina]

Vox put me into the red, then I climbed out

You ain't the first one.


(I figured you'd wind up getting Mod repped soon enough anyway).

I don't recall any Stuart on The Daily Show.


According to IMDB, Jon Stewart has been with The Daily Show since 1996, while Colbert joined in 1997. That is all the research I did, so.. very well could be wrong.

[VoxExMachina]

Just jog if the metals are too much

Somehow, this sounds like it ought to be a meme.

[medjen]

Total Aside:

Was it medjen or Ctrain that I gave a link to for cissus powder some time back? Do you still have that link? I was going to give it to mike and I no longer have the PM and don't have a shot in hell at remembering the link.

It was me, but I don't have the link anymore either. Since cissus tastes like dirt/seawead/dried oak leaves, I stopped taking it.

I <3 my rep power. I enjoy being able to neg idiots into the red.

This is the only reason I care about my rep. I couldn't even tell you what it is most of the time. Right now I know, because it was just barely enough to make FRep red when he was at +15.

[chazzy1864]

(I figured you'd wind up getting Mod repped soon enough anyway).

I think he is in a bad spot there, considering he was repped or negged by like 4-5 at least. They're all going to be on spread for him for awhile.

[medjen]

in other news, J. J. Abrams will be directing the new Star Wars movie.

Should be interesting to see how different/similar he makes it to the Star Trek reboot.

Dirt + black tea is the flavor I get from it.

I still take it. I need it. I used to mix it with my protein powder back when you adn I first discussed it. It made the protein taste like crap. After seeing a post by Blizzard talk about just dumping the scoop on his tongue and chugging something else, I tried it. I do 1-2g with my pre-workout drink. Treat it like Goodys/BC Powder: dump it on the tongue and then chug soemthing better tasting to quickly wash it down.

Truth. If I go red now I'm gonna be there a while I bet.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Yeah, I saw. Abrams is OK, I've liked some of his latest stuff TBH.

But he's just directing. I feel like the writer is a huge factor too. Michael Arndt, who wrote Toy Story 3, the new Hunger Games and Little Miss Sunshine.

... which has me kinda nervous. Hope he doesn't butcher the science fiction aspect of Star Wars.
