But yeah my point is the language shift isn't saying "they" it's changing your sentence so you don't need to say he, she, or he/she.

Socially liberal, fiscally conservative. Hard the argue with results, Alberta is one of the wealthiest provinces and probably the best off budget wise.

Oh, hi ontario.

I'm sure them being assloaded with abundant natural resources and a small population has nothing to do with it.

provincial politics is a really pragmatic arena

haha, "progressive conservative", that's great stuff. it's the kind of term that would make european conservatives shit themselves as much as "liberal conservative" would american ones

i wonder if that's the kind of shit they would pick up in order to go "no man we're cool now!"

i mean our second-most and largest conservative party are already calling themselves a "worker's party" (which changed in 2010 to "THE worker's party"; is bound to change in 2014 to "THE party") for marketing reasons, and i can't imagine how much they threw up in their mouths when they launched that one

You should get dragons dogma, so we can be XBL friends and you can rent my pawn.

Speaking of drizzogs, this game is starting to get a bit nutz. Every time I step outside of town I'm starting to get savaged by a giant monster out of nowhere and it's sort of disorienting when until this point the deadliest thing on the coast was bunny rabbits.

Not that I'm complaining, I just wish it didn't happen every time I need to do an escort. And it sure as hell beats the god damned where the fuck is waldo quests that the main town is 100% comprised of

Well, my dog almost died yesterday. Poor thing was puking up blood. We had allowed our neighbor to give them both beef bones thinking they would be OK, but they saw splinters and shards from it on the xray and think they cut up her stomache giving her bad ulcers. She's only 9 months old and this is the second major medical issue with her. She's going to be fine, though thankfully. They gave us a ton of meds for her.

Once she's recovered...deer antlers will be your next best friend.

Sorry to hear about that man, i'm hoping the best.

Thanks. Yeah, we're not giving her anything she can swallow to chew on anymore.

It seems to have toned down a little bit, though I couldn't say empirically. Last major escort quest I was brutalized by a griffon, two chimeras and a cyclops, but today I've only seen a cyclops or two.

Pawn behavior is kind of funny, incidentally. Ordinarily, aaron's and chard's mages are pretty tame--some buffs, occasional poison field, here's a fireball, etcetera

When the chimeras fall out of the fucking sky at midnight while I'm fighting goblins, suddenly the wizards are throwing up walls of fire, launching things into space with ice shards and stabbing cyclopes in the eye with lightning whips, and I don't need my lantern anymore because everyone is on fire.

I think I would prefer not to self-immolate

I bought flaming daggers from the busty shop though and they light everything on fire for me. Except myself.

bah

i think best buy tipped him off

he booked it to the future shop down the road but i think he realized it was locked

now he's hanging around the outlet mall

police said i have to follow this fucker until he settles at a house

then i have to drive there and get an address for them to knock on

worst thing is i turned the vibrate off on silent mode because it was annoying me in class

if it's silent there's no way to find it without demolishing his house

i'm pretty certain i know which one of the four people in the KFC it was too

i'm tempted to just have my sister sit at home reporting the location and then drive out myself and find the guy

a half-broken 3gs isn't worth a fight

i'm worried the battery might run out if i keep pinging it for location too :(

and now it won't update at all, and i can't get anything more focused than a parking lot size ring from 15 minutes ago

i hope he didn't ditch it and it got run over or something :(

so

this is fucking great

i'm thinking, the fucker went home or something

and his daughter or wife or girlfriend or whoever

they answered when my mom called

and said they found the phone by a credit union RIGHT ACROSS THE PARKING LOT FROM THE KFC

except i know this phone ended up pretty far away at two electronics stores and then a parking lot down there at the outlet mall

so anyway they told her to tell me to pick it up from their mailbox at their house

i went there and there was nobody there, or at least nobody willing to answer the door

phone was in the mailbox tho

i'm thinking they realized dude was an idiot, it's a broke ass phone (the back case is falling apart and separating from the metal bezel) and it's not worth it to do anything with it, and they know i can trace the thing, so just give it up and hope i don't do or say anything

which i won't, except if i ever see that fucker again i'm going to stare at him until he says sorry or runs away


i already started looking at replacement phones, a 4S under warranty goes for $500 or so, and they're all white

what a strange day
