New Years Resolutions

I was wondering if anyone made any resolutions for the new year. If so, please state them clearly (for the tape), and grade your resolve according to the following scale:

1. :broken: What are you talking about? It's the third - I broke mine 2 days ago.
2. :twoheaded: I just said it 'cos all my friends kept asking what my resolutions are.
3. onder: I knew what mine would be - it's the same resolution I make every year.
4. artyhat: In the spirit of the New Year, I'll give it a try.
5. unk: I'm gonna damn well do it and don't give a toss what the date is.

First of all I would like to thank Sheriff_flashman for creating something interesting for a change since the forum has gone a little bitter as of late. My new year's resolutions are as follows:

1. Start smoking pot again.
2. Start drinking again.
3. Maybe start going out to parties again.
4. Wrap up the "girl" case. (those of you that know what I'm talking about, God bless you)
5. Hopefully keep all of the aboce under control, because last time I failed miserably....

 

My main resolution is a combination of #3 and #1. I vowed to quit smoking, just like I do every year. Shortly¹ after the ball dropped, it was #1.

Sheriff von Fatsburgh - You didn't tell us what resolution you made this year... Curiouser and curiouser...

Jinxed - Why the hell are you vowing to start smoking buds and drinking again? If you've been sober for this long, then for fuck's sake why not run with it? For one, it's easier to stay stopped than it is to stop again. And for two, your "refined" lady friend might appreciate a guy who doesn't have constant headaches, mumbles incoherently, and doesn't have a thick rind of fat around the midsection brought on by the munchies.

PS - My new and improved resolution is to master Civ III and wreak vengeance on all other civilizations for abusing me when I didn't know how to play.


¹read: Immediately

 

The sad truth is that she thinks people need to drink/party from time to time, it's a social must for all of us to get along with our daily nausances. BTW, I didn't say I would be :stoner2: all the time. Besides I would only go to parties with her and drink. On a side note, I don't even know if we will be together so SHUT UP MAN!

Starting smoking again after giving up for 8 months was one of the things I most regret having done.

Milo, my own resolution is to become a master of the keyboard through the nine mysteries of Mavis. This is a #5 priority, as it is the only thing standing between me and certain mockery.

I also have a #3 priority to attempt to get some fiction published.

To help with your own mission, I'd suggest paying a call to Civilisation Fanatics they have a cool board, when it works. There's a great sticky on it with some quick tips in.

I hope you realise I am now completely paranoid about your Civscapades. The day after I gave you my tips, you disappeared almost completely from IRC and tis forum. You need to let me know how it's working out for ya, so I can laugh my arse off ... um ... feel better about your endeavours.

 

I've already discovered the humongous resource known as CivFanatics. Coincidentally (or however the fuck that's spelled...) that's part of the reason for my recent disappearance. I'm absorbing knowledge like Keanu Reeves in the Matrix. Only I act better and don't go "Whoa!" every time I learn something...

Another good one is Apolyton, though they seem to be having tech troubles. They're hosted by Gamesnet, though, so I guess that's to be expected after what happened to Tarant Daily.

Just you wait, Fats... The Civ III multiplayer expansion is coming. Prepare yourself. I WILL be ready. There can be only one. Use the force. [Insert overused movie cliche here]

MUWAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAaaarrgh

 

Why not have a 3 person game Milo? Then the powers of, um, us, can take over the world and defeat those nasty civilisations that insist on making more money while building more cities, building up their military and researching at a faster rate than I could imagine...

Oh yeah, here are my resolutions:

1. Be nicer to the people around me
3. Start exercising and lose my damn gut!
3. Actually do something useful with my life.

well Milo, howz civ3? Im still playing my German nation but everybody just got hostile to me, heh, those damned strategic resource always spawn on enemy territory, hereiam the first to discover gunpowder but I have no saltpeter and my spearmen are getting killed easy by enemy forces..

and oh as for my resolution?

1. I'll lessen the time I spent , whining about almost everything..

2. I wont absent from office a lot (and that includes lates)

3. Ill do my best to have an internet connection at home within the year, hopefully, so I can join u in your Civ3 Multi.

 

Insert a movie quote, eh?

"Just when you thought it was safe to start building the SETI program ..." Nah!

Hmmm ...

"In the Space Race noone can hear you scream." Nope.

How about:

"Stop licking your balls, Milo, before I kick your hairy arse all over the floor" - I think it's from Mask.

I dont even know what you´re talking about...
Make a promise to yourself every new year that you will or wont do "this/that"?

Never heard of it...


*lying*
(I´m just pretending to not know so I wont have to care, cuz I know I wont be able to hold the promise =o) )

 

I swear that Gandhi said something just like that to me the last time I was forced to retire in humiliation. God help me, but I yelled something that I never thought I'd say out loud: "FUCK YOU GANDHI!"
