akhliber: I hope it wasn't Barium you had to drink... such... delicious stuff... ;)

AgentBirdnest: *burns ElT's bike to the ground*
(The girls told me to!) >;-)

ElTerprise: Well It's the abbreviation on both the Royal Air Force and the Red Army Faction (and that's usually all) ;)
Don't know - guess the people in our Ministry of Defence are highly incompetent because we have trouble with the HK G36 rifle, the Airbus A400M and the Eurofighter .... oh and let's not forget the Starfighter which fell out of the sky quite often in the 70s.....

ddickinson: Hello! Sorry I missed you, I actually find it quite hard keeping up so I tend to miss people.

Thank you, I hopefully will get some decent rest tonight. It was indeed, lovely stuff isn't it. I had some other stuff as well, and some had to be injected, which was all fun. I was kind of expecting to be glowing in the dark after it all, but no luck. :-)

I have enough blood to sit on my butt and chat on here, so it's okay. They did not take too much really, but a lot considering it was just tests and not blood donation.

I hope you have a lovely day with the little pup, and that you and your lovely wife have a great weekend!

*big hug*

ddickinson: Of course not, the Americans only shot the non-Americans. :-)
(There is an old saying from WW1 and WW2 that goes: When the British shoot, the Germans duck. When the Germans shoot the British duck. When the Americans shoot we all duck.)

I enjoyed the US campaigns as well, they were handled nicely. I am not against that kind of thing, but as a non-American it can be dull sometimes always playing Americans in games that are often a little arrogant. COD blanched it all quite nicely, at least for me.

I am guessing the pizza thing is an American porn thing (of course it is, it is food ;-))?

ddickinson: Did you make sure he was not riding it at the time? O_o

akhliber: Hello! And no worries at all, I miss most of the thread on lots of days myself. It's a lot to keep up with, especially when you're a bit lacking for energy. I do hope you get some good rest this evening!
The last time I had a test with Barrium, it followed the next day by one where I got to eat radioactive eggs, and *still* no glowing-in-the-dark. It's quite disappointing, really. ;)

Enough blood to sit on your butt and chat is enough blood by my books.

Sarge and I are off to a lovely start of a day, and we have a nice, relaxing weekend planned (well, aside from a birthday party for a one-year-old friend of the family. I'm not even sure why she's such a good friend of the family to be honest, as she doesn't even talk or do anything impressive yet.) ;)

ddickinson: It was good, and I did enjoy it, but some of the puzzles were annoying (there is a music one that is quite annoying if you don't know your music). It was not too hard, and we had fun playing it, but a few things let it down. I loved the art style, and the nice hidden ending (which is easy to miss), but I found the ending itself quite strange, as though it was done just to be shocking. Probably not, but that is how it seemed to me. I got the game from Humble some time ago as part of a bundle. If you use Steam I could see if I still have the Steam code if you wanted to give the game a try? (But I can't promise I still have it, I might have gifted it already, but then I might not. So if you use Steam and would like to try it then you are welcome to it.)

I know Finland has a lot of folk lore, I am a big fan of old lore and stories. We probably share some due to England/UK sharing some history with Scandinavia/Germanic regions. Some of the little known folk lore tales are just wonderful. I have quite a collection of books on old folk lore.

ddickinson: Did you make sure he was not riding it at the time? O_o

ddickinson: I see. I was expecting something worse. :-)
And I was only joking about the Eurofighter, although it is true about us originally wanting it to be called the Spitfire 2 due to us doing most of the work. I guess as it was a European fighter then the Eurofighter is okay, although you lot seem to love putting Euro in front of everything.

Stilton: Hi all! How is everyone?

AgentBirdnest: I never understood how they expect someone with severe nausea to drink that stuff :-p

AgentBirdnest: We have a nasty of habit of shooting ourselves too :-\
*ducks*

That's definitely understandable. Playing the same of anything gets old after a while, and especially if that thing is over-heroic Americans. A few games switch things up though, and make Americans look less-than-perfect (off the top of my head - Spec Ops: The Line, which was not very popular at first but people loved it. Maybe other developers will follow this example.) It seems pretty rare though.

Well, I've never seen bacon porn... So I still have some hope for America ;-)
(I hope this doesn't exist. I am not going to check >__o)

AgentBirdnest: Of course not. I'm an American ;-p

Stilton: Hi all! How is everyone?

Stilton: Hi all! How is everyone?

ElTerprise: O.o.....
I know but i wasn't aware of that naming proposal. Wouldn't have mind that actually although the name Eurofighter isn't bad because something like European Fighter would've sound a bit odd....
And i wasn't kidding about the incompetence .... :)
