Yes it is, you're lying. :(

My rant is that I ate way too much tonight and my stomach hurts. I also keep hitting / instead of shift when I try to capitalize something.

MHC is 90% luck, 5% knowing a good route/method, 4% persistence, and 1% skill. Really, you can do the exact same shit and get different results each time. >_>

I find it quite difficult. I can't find a strategy that's working for me. Er- One that works fast enough, that is.

I can get to that one upstairs section with about 20-25 seconds left. It just seems like it keeps going and going and as soon as I'm like done there's another hallway with infinite amounts of people coming out and then I have to hold up otherwise I di--BOOM.

You can blind everyone in the final stretch with one flashbang, Kirk (aside from the one-two guys at the very end/around the corner).

I got really really good at zooming through the first section with combinations of flashbangs and the rapid trigger manipulation tricks built into CoD4 (you seem to be able to lock onto targets you can't even see) so the guys are mowed down instantly.

And as soon as I get upstairs I seem to forget about the flashbangs, thanks GTAF :P

I went to Red Robin's today. I love it cause of all the food they have. But I hate how deliciously freaking awesome they make the burgers and stuff look on the menu. But when you get it, it looks like a pile of elephant crap. :/

Same way all of the fast food restaurants have lush green lettuce and Red tomatoes on the commercials and on the menus, but it's always white and tasteless, and the tomatoes are a pale pink.

Red Robin really degraded over time. It's the same old same old nowadays, which unfortunately happens to be crap.

Supermarkets and other companies purchase all the good stuff...Restaurants buy the stuff that isn't up to the rest of the food industry's standards :P Its cheaper, and they still get repeat customers...

Not that I know about the food industry or anything :P

I ordered a bunch of stuff from Amazon. Some of the things I wanted were only sold from someone else through Amazon. I figured I should get as many things from the same dealer as possible to avoid shipping costs.

So after I order, I realize that even though I ordered 3 things from this dealer, they ended up shipping all three items separately. That would have been nice to know, thanks a lot for making my shipping cost three times what it would have been... (I just thought that dealer had expensive shipping, they didn't mention anywhere on the checkout screen that these would be shipped separately)

Say I'm annoyed at something someone has done. I point this out to my friends. One of them proceeds to do whatever I am annoyed by, not realizing that it's not annoying when someone is trying to do it with the intent to annoy right after you say it. It just bothers me that people think it's really funny, when in reality it just makes them look like a babbling idiot.

It's annoying that they try to be annoying, but the thing they are doing isn't annoying. *** not being able to explain this.

Your annoyed at teasing/poking fun of?

That is because its Fake... Than there is Photoshop to help make it more fake ( or real ) than it really is.

Actually, there are food artists whose sole purpose is to style and invigorate (for lack of a better verb) food products for commercials. Life Cereal may look sparkly and fresh on the box, but when it's in your bowl, it's a mushy mess.

If you look closely you'll notice some things on the advert: The milk? Glue. The sugar? Salt chunks and glitter, styled with various paints.
