[quote who="morpheas768" reply="1597" id="3032679"]Well, seems to me that you kind of just want to share this with us, not as much as asking for advice. But hey, this isnt the "Help those in Need" thread, this is the Chatroom, for God's sake, so its all good! (half-joking here) Yeah, ok bad sense of humor, whatevers Uhm, I did have someone like that, but I am not exactly sure if the situation which you described, is similar, aka not sure if I got it right. <br /

Merely suggesting it, asking if she wants you to accompany her home, shows that you're mature, sensible, and are prepared to put yourself out for her.

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1582" id="3030097"]But you can't really write a Gothic novel.[/quote] Ahem, Wuthering Heights. I'd say that's the most famous gothic novel. Not gothic as in wearing black and growing your hair long, this is much older than that little trend. Different things elicit different reactions from different people. What do I get upset about? Little, I find. I don't cry, something which I find... odd, maybe even a little sad
[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1579" id="3029944"]More-or-less, I'm tearing my soul out to show it to her. If she doesn't figure it out, well, then no one's the wiser. Our friendship continues as previously.[/quote] ... I would say don't do it. It's romantic in a sort of gothic way, but remember that in a gothic novel everybody spends a lot of time being unhappy. As I said, I don't know how close you two are, but I would proceed with caution. Most peopl
[quote who="morpheas768" reply="1571" id="3029780"]Also, do I need to mention Kevlar and Titanium ?[/quote] Well that's a different matter entirely. Why don't we make you some Chobham plate armour Whiskey? It works for the Abrams and Challenger series of tanks, so why shouldn't it work for you?

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1567" id="3029361"]AP rounds would punch through it like kung fu master punches through wooden boards. But against plain old ball ammunition, and particularly the kinds that can be bulk purchased, well, I imagine it would provide quite good protection- particularly against shotguns and pistols, which are going to be the preferred weapons of many thieves of opportunity.[/quote] Buuuuuuullshit. Plate armour went out of fashion due to the improvements in th
[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1567" id="3029361"]This friend happens to play the guitar, though that's not really what drew me to her- it just happens to be a simple, helpful moniker.[/quote] Which I invented, also having a "guitar friend."
[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="1562" id="3029140"]I do bad things to bad people.[/quote] ... I don't think the police would be particularly pleased. I like how you guys are all thinking this is so unique, when over in Olde Englande we wear plate armour to work. This is just a little number which I wore for my work experience. You know, to make a good impression. <img src="http://armstreet.com/images/catalogue/big_img_20080103163230.jpg" alt="" width="429" h
Okay, have this amusing picture. From right to left: what British forces were wearing and using five years ago, their gear today, and how far we've got on our FIST programme (basically Future Soldier). Now, I like what we've done so far. We've massively upgraded the SA80 family, we've got all kinds of new sights, we
"How much further can I sink? I think I'll take you up on that challenge." I never finished my first time around! I keep trying to go back to it, but the problem with such a huge game is that it takes so long to get anywhere in the plot! Oh well, I preferred Fallouts 1, 2 and 3 anyway.
"And could it hurt so much to see the world from another's eyes? To view my choices through the consequences suffered by another? Surely it would be a new perspective, but that is irrelevant, because the simple fact is that my view is the only one that I know is real." And now, here's why I mentioned New Vegas. Am I the only person who would've sympathised with Caesar's Legion if Obsidian hadn't made them do bad stuff for the hell of it? I thought they were
School depresses me. It's one of those times when I get to meet people who are so incredibly stupid in a very intelligent way, and it really makes me want to become one of those "the world is beneath me" kind of people. Seriously, the number of people who seem barely worth the air they breathe... BTW, who here has Fallout New Vegas?
