    Random Thoughts
Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around the splitting of larger threads to alleviate server load, specifically continuing the Random Thoughts thread. Participants express their thoughts on various topics, including the emotional impact of the game Bioshock: Infinite, which one user describes as "haunting." They discuss the game's cover art, noting the absence of the female co-lead, Elizabeth, from the front cover, and reference an interview with Ken Levine that suggests this was a marketing compromise. The conversation shifts to personal anecdotes, including family dynamics and humorous observations about everyday life, such as experiences at McDonald's and the challenges of parenting toddlers. The thread features a blend of light-hearted banter, reflections on gaming, and casual storytelling, highlighting the community's camaraderie.

Nothing is working out the way I want these days. It's a terrible time of my life. Depressed and deeply frustrated.

And this is my fifth post, yet the forum is only recognizing two. Typical of my luck.

If you post in GD, the posts won't show - the posts that show reflect your contributions to forums for math and sciences.

Sorry to hear that. Can you turn things around? You should try, if you can. Depression and an "empty" feeling can be destructive to your spirit. Get out with friends and tread some new ground, if you can.

I see. I didn't know that. Thanks.

I'm trying, didn't give up yet.

Every time something goes wrong, and I become in a state of mind similar to the one am in right now, I just remember that nothing matter in this life, and that emotions are irrelevant. The empty feeling arising from this realization is just freeing and relaxing.

That's easily one of my more favorite songs (from a movie).

It's tough to reconcile this with the slack performances that I experienced during HS and college. The "back-up" singers seemed to want to be paid to stand at the back of the riser and jiggle around.

My sister is a fantastic singer, though we do 'way better in duets instead of relegating her to back-up. She and her band were so damned busy that I rarely got to hijack her for performances. When we did popular numbers like "Wild Night", we never lost a customer, and if the bar's doors were open, we added some. She is still performing, and I wish I could join her.

Ooooomg this reminds me of all the class field trips we used to take back in elementary school. We'd watch Goofy movies during the trips. My childhood is being hit really hard :cry:

Still ain't got nothin' on a new FF game though; FF is everything.

I never got Monty Python when I younger, as high as I tried to get. Maybe its an American-British cultural gap. Other people would always quote some line, and I'd think, that's stupid. I'm getting them a little more these days.

That's ok. I don't know what I was talking about either.

It was obviously a drunken set of posts, as I was typing with a British accent.

Yeah, I try hard to steer clear of this site if I've been drinking, because if I don't, I wake up in the morning and think, crap, I've been banned for sure this time. I can't seem to stay away, though :-p
