    I still talk to God. I ask him if what I do is right. He says "Dude, did you even watch Blackjack? *you're* the ****ing god, I'm just a guy with a beard who makes planets and ****."

    :P I just used it to show where the pic came from. Although I don't mind the 2004 film tbh.

    Less said about War Zone the better though.

    Congrats Pete. What was wrong with Pter? I liked Pter. Vlad is...................weird.
    He's going for a much harsher Mod style:

    Oh, impaler is one word?
    I feel this argument over melatonin production has taken an unfortunate turn. I feel terrible. Can you get your money back Ptey?


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    All underway. I'll be back in my old skin in no time.

    So what you are all saying is you preferred Pter. Am I getting that right?

    Compromise. Return to Pter, but keep your new avatar.

    If Vlad is who you truly are then be Vlad!

    Ah I'm probably Pter in fairness.

    This fling with Vlad has been fun and all, and I'm glad I've grown on Sully like some sort of fungus, but I'll be back in my normal suit tomorrow.

    Well I for one am glad that this social experiment into peer pressure went so well. The anthropologists will be pleased at how quickly the mob turned on Pete and pressured him into reverting back to his normal, comfortable, status quo.

    I was hacked! That's deffo what happened.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    The feedback was pretty comprehensive and unanimous across 3 different fora i post in, so makes sense. I also think the feedback around the dots being at the start and end and this impacting game mods was good; not something i had thought of tbh.

    Anyway, just like any episode of a sitcom, we are all back where we started, having learned a small lesson on the way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,572 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    *steps out of shower*

    Wow, I just had the strangest dream.......

    I called you Vlad before this week and I shall do so after today too.

    I was gonna change my name, then someone coined a phrase after my playing style here and I couldnt change. I have fully embraced my name since!

    Yeah, similar. Was considering a full change but would just cause a lot of confusion here :pac:

    So just dropped the 'Minus' as no one used it for me anyways. Happy in my new skin!

    Do you subscribers get to change once a year or something? I've noticed a few changes recently.

    You can subscribe for a month to get the change if you so wish. Didn't renew my subscription once I got what I wanted (Custom Avatar, slight name change).

    Not really much extra these days anyways for subscribers.

    Soooo happy. Cousin is acquiring me a ticket for the Arsenal Utd FA Cup match in a couple of weeks. Happen to be over that weekend for my uncle's surprise 70th.

    Excited as embarrassingly I've never been to the Emirates for a game! Went to four games in Highbury but haven't had the chance to get over to see the new stadium (for a match, I did the tour when it opened years ago).

    Necro, you've broken my heart. An Arsenal fan.

    :o For my sins. I'm more of an armchair fan these days I find I don't hate anyone really... Spurs aside, but they play such nice football these days AND their manager is quite likeable (apart from his un-natural hatred of VAR) that I couldn't say I HATE them....


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,283 ✭✭✭fixXxer


    I'm a United fan myself. Not as closely as I was back in my youth but still keep up as much as I can. Such fond memories of the SAF/Wenger rivalry :D

    Thought you were a United fan! You've gone way down in my estimation :D
