    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.

Is there any better feeling than seeing your kid make good strides in life?

Warm in my den, drinking coffee, watching Venus simultaneously rise and fade into the brightening morning sky.

Good morning!

My morning was...different. I woke up to find an equation scribbled whiteboard shouting 'How Medieval' (spelt incorrectly... and plagiarized from Poirot- the T.V. show) and 'You iDiot!' at me. When I came across the mirror I remembered that I had drawn moustaches, beard and a dunce hat on my image last night. Sometimes you just got to hate the you from a few hours ago...

My morning was stereotypical. It started out with thinking about inconsequential PF problems, evolved into a mystical revelation, and ended with me pushing the "enter/return" key.

Nothing so mystical. I was thinking about Burning Man this morning, and somehow, Captain Kirk and Spock were both there. I suppose I was imagineering how famous people could get around such magical places, without being photographed. It devolved from them wearing masks, to them riding around with me in my favorite pair of underwear. "No one will look at our faces, if we are wearing fairy dust infused tofu underwear!"

-------------------------
no. we were not all three in my underwear at the same time. I had spare pairs for them.

I went to the library to get a book on unnatural numbers, but someone else had checked out the last copy. I had no choice.

Nah. It's just an illusion of a starting point. His [strike](sur)real[/strike] actual retirement date is ##-\infty##. :smile:

Congratulations! Tell us all about it. :-p

Apparently, Typo Day is also in Spetember.

Edit: Apparently, I don't remember surreals all that well.
