Seeing someone awkwardly trip and stumble.

Plugging a USB cable in the correct way first time.

Solid bowel movement.

What else?

I was going to write a few variations on "Seeing my enemies
foiled. Successfully orchestrating a rival's downfall" but
then I thought of that bit in Alan Partridge when someone
remarks about his memoir that "...you end almost every
anecdote with the phrase "needless to say, I had the last
laugh"
" and then I started reading this
creating-adventure-games-on-your-computer.pdf and, creating my own Text Adventure Game in
BASIC, before I die, would be one of the best things that
could happen to me.

You should definitely do it. Skip basic though and use a
modern tool like flake posted that makes its far easier and
less restrictive.

The tools today are fool proof if youre willing to read. I'm
making a music game for fun and I'm thick.

Anyone had any experience with twine - is it
decent?

Sort of related but I really want to play D&D and I never
have. I read that you might be able to do it online with
people on a site Roll20 - anyone done that!?!? That would be
among the best things that could happen to me.

I love custard choux buns i have as an occasional treat from
M &S but they are shutting down M&S in birkenhead because
they just figured out no middle class people with disposable
income live here

Progressing from a mode-of-being in which you love
people/things for their good/positive qualities to a
mode-of-being in which you love everyone/everything despite
their disgusting wretchedness. Then everything is at bottom
good and harmonious, but it also won't get boring because
you still have work to to transferring the wretched
qualities to good ones. I would guess something of that sort
would be the best thing that can happen.

rest of the tracks are here, very cool that the
whole thing is synthesis, not samples. Some impressively
organic sounds.

When a GTA Heist goes without a hitch, or without someone
quitting after two restarts because they're shit and
impatient.

health before money, simply because less health equals to
less money (commonly)

my mum was saying that to me today, she said about my
brother that he has enough money never to work again, and
money is no object in their lives, but it doesn't matter
because of health issues

Points: 31145 Status: Regular | Show recordbag



well if you had to work for a living you would still have
the health issues, so not having to work in the meantime
would be one problem less.

the best thing that can happen to you is you take a poop and
water doesn't to your anus.

yes that's true, I think work keeps him going to be honest,
my brother doesn't have a social life outside of work, I
think he probably has aspergers but that's what makes him so
good at his job

yes I think it helps him feel connected with humanity, until
my mum got ill a few weeks back he hadn't taken a day off
work for illness,

I think he needs it because if he is busy constantly he
doesn't have time to reflect on things he might be happy
with, I'm not sure its a healthy way to be but suppose
everyone approachs things differently
