Nah. I like 'em right around your sisters age.

[Lightning_Dolt]

Happy Birthday Val. From my other favorite Val.

[RaidaTheBlade]

Ergh, today felt bad...
Lost first round 0-2 to G/W, cause land flood, got a bye, then won the next 2, then lost 0-2 to a dega. Curse you rogue decks.

Did get to beat up on 2 esper decks 2-0 though, so...

[windstrider]

I just got back from seeing Thor: The Dark World. Very entertaining movie. I know just enough about the comics to catch most of the references. I love the look of the dark elves' technologies, and Christopher Eccleston needs to play more bad guys. Stay to the end of the credits for an interesting scene that ties into the story arc of the big bad of The Avengers.

2nd place at open trial, made someone madbro

more at 11

[Link]

played against G/R Devotion in the finals with rage hammer. He was real mad cause my deck was janky and I was dickwhipping people left and right with armed//dangerous and the word was getting around. He was gonna be real mad if he went undefeated until the "mirror" and lost to my jank.

2-1d him after losing to t4 garruk (always gets me). Didn't play armed/dangerous once post board, but did double ghor-clan him for the win after he said "I'm not gonna say good luck"
"good, I never say it myself, I just say lets have a good game."
"No, let's not, I hope you mull to 3 and go die after this."
"I snap keep." I said in response without hesitation

*he mulls to 5*

gets double ghor-clanned over his ruric thar.



Tiebreakers are a bitch and he ends up getting 1st anyway, so I didn't have the best happy ending. He was still mad though. I also got a sweet play mat.

[Kazekirimaru]

You didn't smash his face with your deckbox and leave a backwards Gruul imprint on his forehead? I'm ashamed.

Good job, anyway.

Did I mention he was trashtalking mono red the entire time? Because the mono Red player that beat me was in the top 4 and he kept saying "I can't believe a mono red has made it this far. I can't believe it."

here are some more golden quotes:
"I play caryatid and scavenging ooze, they literally can't beat that."
"phoenix? I got arbor colossus polukranos for that no problem"
"Madcap skills? no one plays that jank" (the red guy had them in SB)

The mono red player lost to him due to weak hands (aka NO reckoner against g/r devotion, no phoenix eihter... just soft hands), so the clown felt justified. that's why the finals match was all the sweeter

Damn it! So want to, but I'm being the good son and going to clean the gutters at my parents tomorrow morning.

On a lighter note, I finally acquired all the cards to make the 5-6 different standard decks I've been wanting to build. And I traded for everything. Didn't spend a dime.

[Nuwen]

Says the dude who plays a 1, 2, 3, MASTER-CURVE deck?

What's with the assholes tonight.

[hamfactorial]

Good work SM, I'm sorry I didn't have those Mutavaults for you. What are the 5-6 decks?

[RaidaTheBlade]

"No, let's not, I hope you mull to 3 and go die after this."

Please tell me you called a judge over on his ass.

I've had people do shit like that, and I call them on unsporting conduct/aggressive behaivor. Can result in warning, game losses, or even DQ's for aggressive behaivor, like 'i hope you die'.

Cause seriously, him getting dq'd for that would have been poetic as fuck.

The blue decks are nearly 1/2 casual baby tears, can you blame them?

Also, please troll them with Sandlot style taunts - "you play Merfolk like a GIRL!"

[zemanjaski]

Blue mages are the whiniest. Years of oppressive cards have left them unprepared for fighting on even footing.

Judges are for pussies and anyone playing against Alex Bertoncini.

[Self Medicated]

Good work SM, I'm sorry I didn't have those Mutavaults for you. What are the 5-6 decks?

No worries on the Mutavaults. I've since picked up a playset.

The decks are:
Tymaret Pyro
Pyro Red
Mono B Control
Mono B Aggro
Rakdos Aggro
and Devotion R

And I just need 1 more each of the following to complete Walter White:
[cards]Sacred Foundry
Temple of Triumph
Chandra, Pyromaster[/cards]

And 2 Stormbreath Dragon

Needless to say, I'm feeling very positive about this Standard season.

[Nuwen]

The judge was sitting one table over, and we were playing in a new store... so it was difficult to gauge the extremity of the situation.

Plus, does appealing to authority sound like a Fate thing to do? He'd either let the words roll off or throw a blow back.

[Yarpus]

I'm slowly getting into more and more weird situations.
Basically: for the last two years I was mostly spending time with my gf, mostly due my illness I was chained to my bed.
And now I'm living in two harems - my job and my studies.
Both of them are filled with cute chicks, and what's worst - compared to most of men there, I'm a friggin alpha male.
It's not that bad at job as my gf also works there, so most of girls actually know that I'm not open on the market... some just don't care about that.
I'm stuck with two very friendly chicks at job. One asks me to join her at movie night as apparently I have a good taste (answer: No, I don't.). Second I managed to talk with about books borrowed me her book which was very, very, very erotic aaaaand grabbed my butt.
At psychology it's even worse, because I have to explain that I have a gf. And someone asked me on FB if I could let her stay for a night as she has no
place to stay in Łódź. I agreed while realizing later that I talk to really cute girl.
The whole problem for me is: I am not used to say "no" to hot girls. I've never really got used to monogamy. The two years I've spent with my gf were easy as I was basically locked in my room. Now suddenly bitches want me and I don't know what to do.

[hamfactorial]

If your girlfriend is amazing, stick with her. Otherwise, disregard monogamy, acquire bedpost notches.

[Kazekirimaru]

Cheating is never justified.

[Yarpus]

What keeps me by her side is fact that she was with me in the worst moments of my life. When I was crying from the pain like a pussy, when I was depressed cause I heard the verdict about my medical condition. It's not like you should leave a person after that.
It's just - I feel like I suddenly got released out of cage but I still have a leash on my neck. And some of my behavior confirms that I'm confused. I like to chat with nice girls and even flirt a bit. Had this issue earlier when I had to go to my University to ask my dean about my studies. So I met this chick. I have to admit she was 9/10 in my eyes. Chat came up randomly. We talked talked talked and then I suddenly asked for her phone number. She agreed.
And then I came back to home to see my gf waiting for me.
Fuckfuckfuckcuntfuckingfaggotswhatthehelliamdoing

From my standpoint cheating at this age is nothing wrong. But it's not about my standpoint. Even
while we were slowly beccoming a couple, my gf said she's like 'no problem' - during the course of our relationship she started to care about that. Welp, I can't say I'm a fan of monogamy as I started the relationship by hitting on her while she still had a boyfriend. Actually most of girls I was dating, had a boyfriend when I was hitting on em'. (not sure how to say that properly in engluando pls no coppa pasterino)

In my previous, probably biggest relationship - my gf cheated on me. And the lesson of life by Yarpus - when your girlfriend comes all in tears and says "I cheated on you when I was in Greece", never fucking ever say "How it was? Was he better than me?"
I ended up being kicked out of an apartment. MY apartment. Without trousers. During a fucking winter. Good thing I've managed to grab a pack of ciggs.

Well, in my opinion - even excluding the whole morality issue - your girlfriend sounds like a pretty awesome girl. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to mess that up.

[hamfactorial]

Beezies come and go, but a quality girl is worth keeping around.

[Nuwen]

There's nothing wrong about spending time with other women, even in a monogamous relationship if everyone's honest about their expectations IMO. If you think your GF is worth seeing through hard times, I'd talk to her about experimenting. Even if sexy times aren't an option, you might be able to talk about limitations and comfort levels. Insecurity doesn't just evaporate, so if your lady is jealous (a manifestation of insecurity) you'll need to help her transcend her weaknesses.

I think it's hard to be a well-rounded person if you're restricted from more than cursory interaction with the oppsosite gender. Everyone needs friends; cutting yourself off from half the population to enter a relationship just means you're missing out on a lot of friends.

It's also better to find this shit out about yourself/GF NOW vs. when you've had a tiff, are feeling lonely and misunderstood and want something new. Everyone just
comes out feeling bad in that kind of situation.

There are a lot of hot asses and brilliant minds and shattering smiles out there. Wouldn't beat yourself up too much for wanting to experience them all. If you find someone to take it all in with you, you're freakin' set. /hippie

When my wife gets depressed, she likes to watch reality shows about people even more fucked up than she thinks she is. Levels her back out.

Or you could just drink until you can't feel feelings.

But the best thing to do is just go sleep on it. Reflect tomorrow.

[Yarpus]

She's an amazing person. Really. One of those girls you wish you'd meet in next 10 years in a moment when you want to stabilize.
Which on the other hand doesn't really affects me. As far as m.y doc is right, in next 10 years I'll be a junkie on heavy opiate as painkillers with practically no liver and stomach. Basically my life's journal has "NO FUTURE" written all over it, which makes me feel bad about anyone sticking for a longer relationship with me. I've had two relationships in life that lasted more than two weeks - no one else could handle me for that long.
I'd rather see her happy by the side of a guy she deserves.

Well, yeah, she's the walking definition of insecurity. I know every girl has those, but after meeting few women in my life I have to admit that she has some really deep issues with those. I guess that mostly comes from being a nerdy girl and me being a honest dick. I like to tease her
and as she asked me to be honest, I fucking am. If she looks bad, I'm telling her. If I've met a cute girl, she knows that. When she starts to cry about me meeting girls that are supposed to be prettier than her I'm telling her "for fuck's sake, there are prettier, smarter and funnier chicks than you. So fucking what. I'm here with ya, and I want to be with you only - does anything else matter?" So I'm probably only feeding her insecurities pretty damn hard.
She, as any other girl, would rather hear "you're the prettiest in my eyes blah blah shit". Can't.

I believe she has to be okay with me interacting with other women. I'd rather want to reduce how "charming" I seem - that's what I'm mostly asking for. I'm far away from my younger stages when it was perfectly fine for me to say "shut up, cunt" to those blabbering, dumb fucks. What's worse, as most of them are now 50 shades of grey diehard fans that would actually make them wet and horny.

[hamfactorial]

You're basically describing most of the women here in the USA, Yarpus. Bunch of basket cases, feminism ruined the whole generation.

One of the thousand -isms that did harm to humankind.
Currently my ex is les, so I tend to hang out sometimes in those purely lesbian communities. Those ultra-active feminists that would want me to be chemically castrated servant. God, those discussions are so funny and pathetic. I promised my ex to never speak up to those again as she was nearly excluded from the les-community (and she really cares about that) tho.

Then leave her.

Unless you don't really feel that way, which I suspect is true. People don't like letting go
of what they have.

Don't explain away your feelings, don't try rationalize the situation by yourself, and for the love of your chosen deity don't use "she deserves more" as an excuse to toss her and fuck other women in some sort of hashtagYOLO blaze of glory before you lose coherency.

If you're really thinking of letting her go for some sort of misplaced sentiment, stop. Because you're a human just like the rest of us carbon-based organic things and you deserve to be happy too despite your misgivings about yourself. If you're happy and she's happy this is the right place to be.

[RedNihilist]

Let me get this straight: your girlfriend has security issues AND she's spent the last two years standing by your side in such a critical situation AND you're considering cheating her?

[Yarpus]

hashtagYOLO blaze of glory

I fucking wish I could get into one. Sometimes I envy people who just got the sentence "you will live for next 10 years and then who knows" as they can go into that blindfuckingyolostate. I can't.

If you're really thinking of letting her go for some sort of misplaced sentiment, stop. Because you're a human just like the rest of us carbon-based organic things and you deserve to be happy too despite your misgivings about yourself. If you're happy and she's happy this is the right place to be.

The issue is: I'm really not sure what happiness is anymore. Since I got rid of all hope of getting better, everything lost it's taste. I stopped eating good food as junk food is fine as well. I'd rather masturbate than have a sex as there are second side's expectations and chance of me getting pain attack and ruining not only
my evening. I've actually had one night-stand like that with my ex-girlfriend. She was usually the person that easily turned me on as she was probably my most important 'teacher' of all lusts and pleasures. Still, after we undressed had two pain attacks in row. Tried to do a good face to bad game. She got really angry onto me and left me alone with the worst feeling in the world.

excuse to toss her and fuck other women

That's completely not an issue. I mean, I like meeting, knowing better and understanding new people. It's not just about physical contact.

Let me get this straight: your girlfriend has security issues AND she's spent the last two years standing by your side in such a critical situation AND you're considering cheating her?

Never considered cheating on her. It's just... some automatic instincts are working. And I'm getting popular amongst the chicks in new places. And I don't really want to torment her with that.
nAnd I agreed to a really cute chick to sleep in the same room as me as she has no place to stay in my city.



4 years younger, she's a pretty kid. What worries me is that she knows me, apparently I got popular after arguing with our teacher about Freud's thesis on "people are naturally evil" being pesimistic/optimistic presumtpion and proposing my researches. I really don't fucking know what to expect.
