The kids behaved generically for the most part. Not any more ignorant or spoiled or rude than any other generation. Kids are just dumb in general. Considering there was a mix, and some of them weren't as stupid as the others, I'd say as usual that some of it's spoiled kids, some of it isn't, and not always a reflection of bad parenting.
My nephew is 9, and he's spoiled as hell.
My daughter is going to have to build her computer before she can have one, and I'll make her fix the damn thing too.

Did all of that in middle school, and more. I believe 5th is now part of that (which is where I was at 10) so I guess that qualifies now too.

Yeah, I didn't get into computers at that level until my teens, and you got a few years on me.
I always thought I would have done well about 10 years sooner, then again I'm about the only one I associate with that knows what an ISA slot is, or how to set dip switches.

Just got level cap to 95. Not much else, just trying to get to 99 so I can solo Dynamis like a boss. Just got Jeuno win today with a few people.
Current savings towards my Mandau:
4 x 100 bynes for stage 2
18 x O. Bronzepieces for stage 3 (lol)
2 x Lungos & one T. whiteshell for stage 4
A hope and a prayer for stage 5

Or the older Gateway computers had their slots and cases backwards so you had to buy sound cards and video cards through them.....
<(O.o)> Hearing dip switches reminds me of the old Comptia A+ certifications, but they finally updated that test from what I heard... took mine in 2003, I'm grandfathered in and see no point in updating it, the principles remain the same, and I keep up enough with the new technology to cover the rest.
I do kind of want to get some M$ certs and my cisco ones though, enough to get into a junior admin role (I could get them easily if I studied the material more, my biggest hindrance is M$ group policy, as I only grasp the concept.
The rest I could brush up on and probably take, I understood the router stuff well enough.

A hope and a prayer for stage 5 Come to Bahamut, I don't need any bynes and I'll be selling what I have anyway, to you I would consider selling them for cheap :P

Aww yeah. Took down a few B and A rank elite marks, finished my Wyrm set, and beat Hydra, Ifrit and Garuda for my Gae Bolg. Productive night. :I
Not looking forward to Titan though. Should probably try and get a better weapon for it. :<

I want to play XI, but I can't afford my account. /cry

<(O.o)> To me, this was amazing when I was a kid..

^ This was amazing when I was a kid. I remember this toy quite well. I would put my head into the back and just run full speed. Whatever I hit was fun as hell. I hit and all time high when I run into the side of a parked vehicle. My mother told me she saw me run full blast into the car and the tonka truck came out the other side. Was fun!

I mean if I felt like staying at my desk, I could get my kicks for a bit by playing on the private server, but I don't have it loaded on my laptop, and it's pretty buggy.

I 'purposefully' lost my security token so I can no longer play.

My ex-roomate did that a few years back, had to replace the damn thing, then he "found it" when we were moving out.
The ***.
You can still play, you'd just have to go through the trouble of deactivating it.

Which reminds me, when I do have the $ to play, I need to spend an hour or two with a GM on the support chat.
I need to change some things around, and I know of no other way to do it.

Bismarck.Josiahkf said: »no you can't give your char a vagina : P The one character has one (well, or it's like barbie under those booty shorts).
but no, I need to separate the one POL ID from the SE ID, as the ex finally wants to play, after I leave her.
plus 2 other things, that I don't want to discuss here.

Nope. 'Purposely' left all my r/ex gear within my Satchel. I really don't wish to play any longer. lol

edit: and you can still add a character to the same SE account after, and it will still add the satchel, even when it's deactivated, go figure.

give in, bwahahaha!
on another note, somebody just sent me this picture:
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
