*looks in and sees more people*

*distributes large trays of alcohol and food*

*glances sternly in Mag's direction and reminds him that he might end up crunchy and covered with ketchup*

*Heads off to some RL matters*

Oh, I don't need ketchup. Seasonings would ruin my flavor. :mischief:

Maybe he is. I'm not against papricka, but I do really prefer Pepper myself.

Perfect combo:

Malagueta Pepper, olive oil and mustard on a sandwich with letucce, smoked turkey, onions and mayo. Rocks the ages.

Malageta pepper, olive oil and rice with beans and beef and fries: The rice without salt, for the sweet taste, the beans with tons of bacon and the beef made in the onions. Not a lot of salt on the fries, but add cheese if you will.

Ah, healthy food.

I should report you to the law, as Im not of drinking age, but as you didn't know that, I won't turn you in. *Dumps out vodka into a handy potted plant* Thanks for the pickled herring, though.

*tackles Luis and grabs a funnel* Don't worry, it's just holy water. Now, open wide...

*Sees burning Krauts running out of the bar* What the? :speech: What's going on here?

*Peers inside the bar*

What in heaven's name? *Sees a dragon and a burning flamethrower unit* He's gonna blow! Take cover! *Dives to a nearby low wall* *BOOM!*

Uh oh, I forgot that I rigged those tanks and vehicles as well. RUN! *Runs away as fast as possible a few blocks down the road and hides inside a house. A terrible explosion occured seconds later*

Well, that wraps up the main part of the mission. Now Baker Company will be able to enter the town unhindered. Mission accomplished.

Joints and fire... Stop, I'm going to cry.

:laugh: It's ok Chim. I hardly miss it since I stopped.

What the? The crazy bastard is blowing stuff up.

COZY joint, mind you. Size matters.

That reminds me of an incident....

A few years ago I was working as a teaching assistant while completing the coursework component of my MA in Canadian history.
The TAs had to sit in in the lectures for first year students, since we had to lead seminars for them in the material covered.
The prof for this particular section sometimes had a unique approach to lectures and one day he brought in a 'ghetto blaster' and some lyrics to a song by a group called The Arrogant Worms.
The overall gist of the song is that Canada is really big...
The TA I was sitting next to was a bit of a twerp, and we'd had our differences.. He was also extremely short and had an exceptionally small build..

I just couldn't stop myself...

I leaned over and whispered... "See, size *does* matter"

Poor guy.... he went the colour of an overly ripe plum.
Normally I'm not quite that awful... and I've never actually considered height in men to be an issue but due to previous run-ins I felt he deserved it

Ah yes, going there are we? Women tend not to like my response when something along those lines is tossed my way. :laugh:

I can just imagine

Though, you have a sense of wit. This guy was one of the most humourless individuals I'd ever encountered...which is partly why I gave in to the temptation of thoroughly embaressing him... The TA whom I shared an office with overheard my comment... and it got around

For some months after that "my little friend" was routinely greeted with comments such as:
"Hey, how's it hanging?"
"Oh look, it's raining again, seen any big worms lately?"

and so forth...

Nope, I don't. I just find women who seem to think that size is all that matters to be boring prudes who don't know how to please a man. The reverse is true for men who think the same way. I mean, really, talk about wedging yourself into a corner based on one attribute.

:laugh:

@ DW, Oh, I get bad. If a girl goes there, she opens the door to all forms of naughty responses I can think of to remind her she's being shallow. The faces the girls make are amusing however. You can see the progression from disgusted and offended to thoughtful and then ashamed.

Size matters AMONG other attributes, dear.
Puny humans sometimes get offended by this fact.
Just think in terms of RPG: you have to distribute 10 points among several important attributes. Depending on your goal you invest in one and decrease another.

*Becomes thoughtful and ashamed*

But still...

How the hell do you invest in size??????

Because for some reason most of the girls I encounter are taller than me.

(Trying not to think about the other meaning of size)....

Have you considered high heels? Or body-building?

Anyway, investing in CHARISMA is a good option too...

Mmmm...I'm not a fan of the whole high heels thing.

And don't worry about the body-building, I got that covered...in fact it might've been that that stunted the whole height thing.

And charisma??? Boooo, I'm all about the strength, dex, and con.

You know, q couple months ago I had a situation then I had to say my piece or burst. You know the feeling.
So I said it. I don't mean I said anything rude

. let's say, it was critical to the management. Well, there were some repercussions.
After that I said to myself:
"I learned my painful lesson on the value of silence and got my WIS+1 as a result."

Did you tell this story before? I remember hearing this before.

Frankly, I think that if he turned colors, he wasn't just thinking about his body size at that point; that was something even more specific. :laugh:
