Bah, I lost a game because we forgot Aven Mindcensor was on the table during the resolution of a Path to Exile. W-W-D-L. 2 - 1 - 1

joanna newson is a siren, a goddess, an alluring voice of penetrating beauty in an ugly world.
you had my support making fun of libertarians, and i'm not about to defend a pedophile, but posting something for comedic value specifically based on someone's disability is p uncool, chief.
I was sitting in a cafe yesterday, reading a book in the corner with a good view of everybody. There was a guy near me with a laptop, and he kept muttering to himself. I thought he was having computer problems, and he motioned me over to him. Turns out he was actually totally paranoid and told me to stop watching what he was doing. He kept muttering and trying to turn his screen away from me, and I just turned back to my book (Hunter S. Thompson: Fear and Loathing at Rolling Stone). There's a kind of mystical power in the nuts people of London, so later, when another guy was on OKCupid, I heeded the warning of the oracle and didn't spy on him. And that's the only story about OKCupid that I have.
Last night I was drunk and went on omegle trying to get people to give me music suggestions. I was greatly disappointed. All I got was horny girls wanting add me on skype. Ugh.

Oh man omegle. My pals and I used to have a lot of fun on that when it was only just text. It is sorta funny that when you talk to someone who could be from somewhere completely alien and exotic out first impulse seems to be "do I want to sleep with you? What's the closest thing to that we can achieve?
Whelp, I'm going on air in 20 minutes. icradio.com if any of you cool cats want to listen in
Ah, I would listen but I'm going out with friends in a few. Have a good show!
I always do! Have a good outgoings.
Is there a place where you save the sets you like, like soundcloud? That was totally like 6:30 for me and at this point I'm super curious about what you play.
I've really always been more of a NY Garage person than a UK Garage person but I'm sure there's tonnes of crossover to be had.
I play the most eclectic show I can, so it's all kinds of stuff. My show's here: http://www.icradio.com/shows/741/. You can play back any of the shows that got recorded (on some rare occasions something went wrong), and all the playlists are all there. the facebook page is facebook.com/TheCommunistPropagandaShow. That's useless except I post when I go on air, and it makes me feel good if people ever like it or post there
Is Warsaw really so dangerous?
Well Poland was the only place that felt dangerous. I don't know how dangerous is really is, but all the guys there walk around with seriously short hair looking kinda mean. I dunno, it's probably not so bad. The people were friendly if you talk to them, usually.

anyone else use pucatrade to pick up cube staples? i really want to like it, but in practice the slow pace and bottleneck / race to the bottom created by "one must have x dollars to get cards of x or less value" make me yearn for the efficiency of looking through people's binders (which is a joy i'd like to expound upon in an article), mtgo bots, or north korean barter
edit: it seems to have really slowed down over the past few weeks, not sure why since the number of active trades has stayed fairly staple and god knows that my 'have' list hasn't changed much
illustration of inefficiency: there are 18x as many cards offered as cards wanted, presumably most of these are bulk crap (which is both annoying and expensive to snail-mail) as in the case of a blue chip like FoW there are 230 wants / 133 haves. still though silly that it's not closer to 97 / 0 for example

I haven't used PucaTrade, but there's a similarish site over here (magiccardmarket.eu) that I've had great success with. Well, maybe similarish. Basically there you just buy cards directly from individual sellers, you don't actually trade. (not sure exactly how Puca works).

Puca doesn't use money at all (well, it does, obviously, but it maintains the WotC hypocrisy, convenient to mothers and legal departments alike, that it doesn't) -- you start by mailing cards from your 'have' list, for which you get 'points' (miraculously pegged to the US cent!) that then are used on random cards on your 'want' list that people send from their 'have' lists. (The initial beta testers -- it's still in beta, so it should get better -- were seeded with $10, I mean, 1000 points, to get things going.)
I'm pretty tired and lazy and feel like reading an Evelyn Waugh book right about now, but it seems to me that a lot of the problems could be solved with 'public' have lists, however, someone that knows more about these things than me should type out an analysis of the model and possible flaws and improvements below!

Mutagenic Growth might be cool, I don't like the other ones. But not for any well founded reasoning or anything.
Soooo did anyone ever have a good experience with Blood Scrivener? Jason I see it's in your list still.

Blood Scrivener is shit and should be removed.
I just watched half of Salo and decided not to watch the rest. Any of you guys seen it? Should I watch the rest? I used to be able to stomach this stuff, but then I watched A Serbian Film and spent a lot of time on 4chan and now I can't take it. Is that like reverse desensitisation? Sensitisation?

I like your suggestion. But in case not everyone thinks that
They're in the smiley menu. If you don't feel like moving your hand all the way over to your mouse, you can use:
Code::w: :u: :b: :r: :g:
Rob had a really good idea of allowing mana symbols to be directly pastable from Gatherer, so that typing {2}{W}{W} would give you
. He spoke, and lo, it came to pass.
Code:
{W}{U}{B}{R}{G}As before, they're still in the smilies menu.

Congrats Rob!
Random poll (not that your opinions matter): do you guys like it when I post reviews for random games on RiptideLab? Do you have any critique/feedback? I'll probably keep doing it because I find it interesting (if I play a new game and don't review it, did I really play it at all?), but if possible I'd like to make them more appealing.
In other news I think an analysis of Rogue: Legacy is incoming sometime.
