I thought all females you know were evil?[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Just the females I know online.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]This calls for a quote from my ICQ log.

[quote:post_uid0]Bondith: So far, all the females I've had personal or ICQ contact with are evil.[/quote:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0]

Evil, you said?[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ow-kay, time for a new question.

Best I can think of right now is: Do you have glasses or contacts?[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]My house has both. Plenty of wineglasses and electrical contacts.

::skips away singing Smurf theme::[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]God I love English.

Well, I wasn't asking about your house, but at least it worked. :p[/color:post_uid0]

Neither, I use to have glasses, and i will again within a week. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I wear glasses. So do the other members of my immediate family.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'm the only one in my immediate family that [i:post_uid0]hasn't[/i:post_uid0] had to wear glasses at some point.[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Pending my little brother getting his glasses with in the week also, everyone in my immediate has glasses except my oldest brother.[/color:post_uid0]

[mudshark]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Glasses.[/color:post_uid0]

[NeoMatrix]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I have neither. I did wear glasses for a brief period of time when I was younger, but stopped wearing them because I saw just fine without them. The rest of my family all wear glasses. I did have 20/20 vision last time I got checked.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Everyone in my immediate family wears glasses, including me. But I usually wear contacts in company.

[quote:post_uid0]but stopped wearing them because I saw just fine without them.[/quote:post_uid0]
Oh, I see just fine without them too, I mean, who needs vision?

Seriously though, they're somewhere around -6 dpt, so I really need them.[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I wear glasses too. Although I have only -1 dpt... but if I don`t wear them, it will grow... Contacts used to drive me crazy![/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Alright, alright, I give in ::answers the question properly:: I wear contacts in school and glasses at home. I'm -8.5 in each eye; legally blind without glasses. I'm going to get laser surgery after I turn 21 or so.[/color:post_uid0]

::looks for Vorlon-poking stick::[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]El Question Nuevo! :D

What is the craziest thing you`ve done (recently)?

I went to Sheraton Hotel last week with a friend. 80$ for a few drinks and a sandwich, :D But it was very classy, Americans everywhere, laptops all over the place... Well, you only live once! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It depends on your definition of "recently", doesn't it?

Hmm... let's see. Probably not dropping out to school and worse still, trying to take an advanced-level module at the same time as an experimental lab module. Yeah. CRAZY.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The craziest thing? Giving my address to someone I've met on the internet. Something I once swore I'd never do.

My life has been [i:post_uid0]so[/i:post_uid0] boring lately. *sigh*[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Nothing (At least nothing i want to mention ;) )

Well a few weeks ago, i got intoxicated for the first time, it was an er.... intresting experiance. I doubt i'll be repeating it anytime soon. :lol:[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]For the first... :O

Poor American. :p[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Its not that i hadn't had the opertunity before, I just chose not to. Â :p

I wouldn't have even gotten a buzz, but my friends and I were playing "drinking Monopoly" and i landed on free parking right after opening a new beer  :lol: (they said i wouldn't be able to down the whole thing, how could i not prove them wrong ;)) Thats what did me in, before that i was fine.

But like i said, i probably won't do it again anytime soon, as much fun as it was feeling the room spinning ;) i don't like the feeling of not being in compleat control of my actions  :dead:  :p[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, I've only been drunk once before too.

I usually drink cokes whenever me and my friends go out, basically because I don't like the taste of beer. Anyway, one time someone told me he'd make some mix for me, and I couldn't ask what it was.

It was good. :D

EDIT: Damn spelling errors.[/color:post_uid0]

[/quote:post_uid0]

And this is American beer.

I've only attempted to get inebriated once. I found I couldn't imbibe fast enough to keep up with my liver. Ethanol is vile swill. I'm a chemist. Trust me on this. I work in a room with many bottles full of 95% ethanol.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I dunno about crazy, but I regularly walk several miles into the centre of town even though I could very easily take a bus. The lazy half of me considers that to be totally loony at any rate.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'm wondering what the almost-every-day main course is wherever you go. (Like rice in China and spaghetti in Italy)

Here it's potatoes, which I find kinda weird since they're not from here originally. I suppose the potato is the food which grows here best, or something.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I don't really think that there is one for the UK. The only thing I tend to have a lot of is pasta, but that's more because I love pasta than anything else.[/color:post_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I wouldn`t know, after I started living alone I only eat few sandwiches and a bar of chocolate a day, :D

Though I think potatoes and pasta are equally popular here...[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Potatoes are pretty common around here too. A more of area spicific thing is Venison :smile: yummy :lol:[/color:post_uid0]

[NeoMatrix]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]New Question: Do you think it is possible to be best friends with someone of the opposite sex without falling in love with them?[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Do you think it is possible to be friends with someone of the opposite sex without falling in love with them?[/quote:post_uid0]

I say yes, and Nan agrees with me.

Who said "line blurring"?[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Yes, I have lots of guy freinds, and i have had "crushes" on a couple of them at one time, that's not the same thing as love.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Absolutely. It just works for some cases.[/color:post_uid0]

[mudshark]

[quote:post_uid0="NeoMatrix"][color=#000000:post_uid0]New Question: Do you think it is possible to be best friends with someone of the opposite sex without falling in love with them?[/color:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0]
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'd say so. (Things would certainly be a lot more complicated if it wasn't.)[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Certainly.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'd have to say yes to this one too.

New question - if you had to give up a sense, which one would it be?

I think I'd pick taste myself.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Common sense. I hardly ever use mine anyway.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Scent. It's not like I ever smell anything, anyway. (Even though my avatar might suggest otherwise. :p )[/color:post_uid0]

[mudshark]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sight.[/color:post_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Smell. It would make it much easier to deal with vile chemicals (but a lot harder to tell whether the flask in my hand is full of water or methanol, short of drinking it, and then I'd lose another sense.)[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]That would be... inconvenient. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I would probably give up smelling also, even though it would impair a second sense (taste).[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I think it's probably about time for a new question, don't you?[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Agreed... Was that the next question? ;)

All right, eh, what's your favourite computer game?[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The Sims :bigsmile:[/color:post_uid0]

[NeoMatrix]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Currently, its Halo Online, Midtown Madness 3, and There.com[/color:post_uid0]

[Hotaru]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Final Fantasy XI. It's where my Avatar comes from.[/color:post_uid0]

[AKAArzosah]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]hmm, that's tough. do you mean only PC, or can it be PS2, GBA, etc?
if only PC, Age of Empires, the Rise of Rome Expansion.
If PS2, Kingdom Hearts. I finished the game![/color:post_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The original Magic Carpet. :D So much fun.[/color:post_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Frell - I can't answer with just one. I'm going to say the Civ series is my fav lot of games.[/color:post_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]<font size = 10>[b:post_uid0]WORMS![/b:post_uid0]</font>


::ahem:: Fatality![/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]A thread over at TrekBBS a while ago got me thinking about some of my old favroites. Anyone want to play a couple of old DOS games :smile:

Paratrooper (http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/download/game/203): Deceptivly easy and very addictive. Since i downloaded it last week i've only beable to score 300 points at most, but i useto beable to get up too 1,000 :D

Gorillas (http://www.telcontar.net/Misc/Gorillas/): My brother and i use to play this all the time. you ajust the angle and speed and throw a exploding banana at your apponant. this isnt the origional version its a remake, not quite as good as the original but close.[/color:post_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ohh, Gorillas. That brings back memories, all right. :D
I never played paratroopers much, though. Guess I sucked at it. :p

EDIT: *Clicks on link* Oh, yes I did! That was one of my favourites too, back in the day. :D[/color:post_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]It makes me all nostalgic:crying:

I also found a half way deicent remake of frogger, and the original version of hard hat mac, but for some reason it plays at about 50 million times the normal speed 8| Edit: Why doen't that smilie work :swear: i want that smilie ;) fine i'll use this one insted :O[/color:post_uid0]
