That's a common misconception because I can curl my cock into a spring and bounce on it like Tigger.

I'm not actually part kangaroo, though - that would be ridiculous.

I usually skip breakfast and truck straight through to lunch, so the
current discussion could be big trouble for me.

I'm going to make a big pot of photodyer coffee and lay about my apartment, confirming that life is good.

@Calamity what kind? I'm a mechanical engineer, 5 years out of school.
The first professor I had for one of my aero classes said this on the very first day:

"Mechanical engineers are just the guys that realized they couldn't cut it in aerospace."

I keep that in my back pocket when one of my MechE friends decides to get a little curt with me. :p

Ironically, I'm a huge gearhead.
Wait, you're an aerospace engineer too?
I am. Bachelor's and Master's from Auburn. Concentration in fluid dynamics.
Well, I have an aerospace degree from the IST of Lisbon, Portugal, and a Ph.D on plasma physics. I work in Hypersonics. Nice to meet a fellow aerospace engineer,
nThat's awesome. Some of my work was actually presented in a conference in Lisbon in 2010. I was an author on the paper.

Happy Anniversary, Dan! May the boy choose to sleep at the most opportune moment for you and Melissa to get some quality couple time.

Breakfast...on the days I'm not working, it's damn yummy since we started the Grok diet. Generally we do bacon, scrambled eggs, fruit and maybe some fried taters. And of course COFFEE! On my work days it's reduced to grabbing leftover bacon, steak, hamburger or whatever I have in the fridge.

@ham - glad you're enjoying the coffee, my good man! It's almost warm enough for me to start shifting over to the iced version through the day.
The boy is with his grandparents for the day, so we've booked ourselves a rather nice hotel room to celebrate.

Try getting a doctorate in psychology: I've been in school longer than anyone here, I'd wager; my pay, prestige, and general world knowledge will likely not reflect that distinction.

My ex has a doctorate in Psych. What does she do for a living? She's Ariel at Disney World Tokyo.

I'm a Junior Environmental engineer major, switched from chemical engineering 'cause we toured a chemical plant for a fluid mechanics class and didn't want to get stuck in a boring place like it. It's less the civil engineering kind and more towards chemical engineering, since i have a concentration in containment transport and process control. in non gibberish, i'll be the guy that cleans up messes and makes sure they don't happen.

Can't believe i didn't see that lol.

Though i picked this username loooooong before i picked this major. It's origins are from when i was a Final Fantasy fag. I really like the name 'Calamity of the Skies', referring to some alien in FFVII, and shortened it to Calamity 'cause it sounds cool.

It's fine if you don't believe me.

RE: Rapid Hybridization - it's not good. But it is necessary and you're running 8 unsummons plus 4 snapcasters; with a Quirion Dryad in play you don't lose as much value etc. sometimes trading it in for your own creature plus theirs is a thing as well (surprise blocker). Basically, you need instant speed, non-counter spell answers sometimes and this is all that's available in the colours. It comes out a lot fwiw.

RE: Prime Speaker - lol fuck no.

RE: Breakfast - black coffee, three raw eggs, bowl of spinach, multi-vitamin; protein shake an hour later... :( yeah, making 148 is garbo when you walk around at ~178.

RE Rapid Hybridization: A good friend of mine has earned the nickname Young Wolf. He loves janky value plays so for a while, he was playing simic undying. Highlights include mid-combat rapid hybridization my young wolf(so it untaps as a 2/2) creating a lizard for surprise blockers, then proceeding to beat down.

Last night he was playing esper. Highlights include eot hybridize my doomed traveler, tap the spirit and the lizard with high priest, make a demon. SO MUCH VALUE. Playing against him usually results in many laughs(and reading/rereading of what Zameck Guildmage does).

I usually skip breakfast, actually. If I eat dinner around 7, I end up doing a ~16 hour fast every day, and breaking it at lunch. Fasting has many health benefits: fat loss, blood glucose level improvements, growth hormone release, 2-3 extra inches on my dick, etc.

Hah. She is a worse cook than I am, if someone is making food it is usually me :P I can actually cook quite well, just can't be bothered if it is just me.

The Granger Sandwich - an everything bagel flanking thick-cut bacon, provolone cheese, and cream cheese.

That's how you do breakfast.
You people are killing me with your delicious carb-heavy breakfast delicacies.

Yeah, the fruit blend filled me up for all of two hours. Eating healthy is hard.
'morning, gents.

Breakfast is usually whatever the toddler decides he will eat that morning.

Happy anniversary to me!
Happy Anniversary! :toot:

Exactly my thoughts. My two-year English degree and in progress Bachelor's degree in Musical Theory will probably get

nI had a car accident yesterday too. I got distracted and couldn't stop in time. Rear-ended another car. Other car was messed up quite a bit. My car is strangely enough, unscathed. Must have been the 10x boros charms in the trade binder in the back.

Dealing with the police in a language you don't really understand is terrifying. At one point I thought I was going to be handcuffed and taken away.
