Own it up, I know it's one of you guys.
First my DS breaks, then the computer breaks, then the DS breaks again just after it got repaired, then the washing machine breaks, then I get my DS back but at the exact same day, my Wii breaks.
So one of you must be cursing me, logic dictates that.
-
To each is curse. Mine was "get-everything-stolen" while yours is "have-everything-breaks".
It's all part of "Life-sucks" dark magical powers.
-
I'm dealing with my own "walk by it, and it falls" curse. No, I do not carry any large protrusions (that I know of).
-
Wow, odd. This is the time I have nothing but good luck o.o
I got a new laptop, did really good on a paper I did 10 minutes before it was due, got a luger from 1912 with every number matching for only $635 (should have been at least $1000)
Good luck for me. Maybe I stole all your guys' luck!

#1 Rule of luck. Don't bring up how good it's been.
-
Ah, I expect it to go to **** soon anyway, no point delaying the inevitable.

Sorry Grandy, I meant for it to go to Lucas.
-
All my life I have had any headphones I own break down and die within a matter of weeks. I am constantly buying new ones. This voodoo must stop.

God, I think we have the same vile witchdoctor nemesis.
-

Same.
-
Oops. Sorry guys.
Ancient Brazilian voodoo!
-
Sorry Grandy, I meant for it to go to Lucas.
Well good to know I wasn't the only one.
-
Lucas, Fruckert, Darkfox, what are you guys saying? You're not cursing anyone.
It's just bad luck, Grandy. Leave it alone.
Yes... They'll never suspect me.

*hides Grandy voodoo doll*
Sorry what were you saying?

A Luger? Damn.
-
I don't believe in the forces of good and bad luck. But I do believe in random chance and probability.
-
Sorry, I left my good luck powder in the car, so I had to use bad luck powder on those doughnuts...
-
Sorry dawg it was probably me. I went to my grandparents for 2 weeks and in that time, the dishwasher broke, the microwave broke and then the the toaster oven exploded.

Maybe you're magnetic or something
-
Yeah man. Nothing to do with luck. You're Dr. Wily's secret robot master; Magnet Man!....2!
-
Just a question... is this also accompanied by a headache?
-
Kinda reminds me of my friend's luck on a near-daily basis... He got hit in the face by a rogue, footless shoe. Twice. In the same week.
-
It's me. Today, I put a can of Sprite in my backpack and it got a hole in it and went all over my bag. About 3 hours later the second one I grabbed, this time in my purse, got a hole punched in it and leaked all through my purse. On my camera, iPod, and Gameboy, mind you. Haha I'm just wrought with bad luck.
-
Gameboy? Say wut.
-
Yeah, I've been playing me some Pokemon Yellow lately.
-
Ah! In that case, rock on lady.
-
Will do, will do.
-
Well too bad there is a problem with the Sprite.
Get it? Because the little characters and all are called sprites and it's a can of Sprite that leaked on it! Haha! Get it?
Well suck on my nuts.
-
Oh wow.
-
That was amazing.
-
I know. I'm just that great!

Oh man, I did something like that a while ago. The difference is that A) The leak was so small that I wasn't aware until far too late, and B) I forgot about the soda even being there until about a week later. I was alerted to the issue when I began to smell something foul and somewhat ginger-y. Sure enough, my books were ruined, molding, and moist, and a can of Canada Dry was sitting under them, about half empty (or half full, if you can somehow still be an optimist after this mishap). Wasn't much fun, and I was suddenly unable to finish reading Needful Things. Hooray, moldy odor.
-
Dude, Archem, are you life shadowing me? I did the same thing with Canada Dry last year. Also I have that book and haven't finished reading it either.

Similar thing happened to me once. Except it was a sandwich bag from elementary school forgotten in an old backpack :-/. I will never, ever forget the odour.

Creepy. I have a question: Are you my female doppleganger? Because that would be mighty awesome.
-
I don't know... Could be... XD

ALL CURSING ALL THE TIME. My CD player was half-submerged in Pepsi in 10th grade for some reason. I guess the top came unscrewed in my bag. Anyway, I put it in my garbage can, let stand 1 week, and Voila! dry innards again.
Someone must be cursing me. I keep hearing praise for vampires and commercials of the so-called Twatlight sagebrush.
-

Ughhh, leaving food in old backpacks is the worst!
Since we're on the subject of odors that we will never forget...When I was 12, I got suckered into buying one of those "sea monkey" kits. It was pretty cool until the tank started getting filthy, like rank, green, and so cloudy I could barely see my little shrimp pals. Since there were like a billion of them and they were too tiny to transplant into some other water, I had to dump them down the bathroom drain. Big mistake. The smell never went away.
-
I accidentally left a banana in my backpack once.
Oddly enough, it didn't smell bad.
Even after like...2 months.
It smelled kinda sugary.
-
Bananas don't really spoil that offensively. They just turn black and shriveled.
-
Yeah, they don't get stinky really.
-
Have any of you ever smelled burning plastic? Once I left a plastic ladle on the burner by accident and it's a weird smell- sharp and painful and it makes you want to throw up, but in a stinging way. It's another smell you can never forget. Even thinking about it makes me smell it.
-
I've had melted plastic drip onto my finger once. That is a feeling you never forget.
-
Yes, I've smelled that before. Though it's not a pleasant odour, it isn't all that bad. Any of you ever smelled a corpse that's been there for a few days? There was this truck in the parking which was there for a few days until a corpse was found inside. Of course, the word "corpse" makes everyone curious, including me. When they took the corpse out of the van, a foul odour followed. We were far away (policemen didn't want us to come closer >:( ) and we could smell how terrible it was. But I can't imagine how it was for those who were next to it.
-

To freak people out in elementary school, I used to hot glue my fingers together.
I actually didn't think it hurt, freaked the teachers right the hell out though.

You win.

With the plastic, the melted flesh did hurt for a while.
-
You win.
Yep, he does.
So who died?
-
I have smelled all these and more. Well, not the aged human corpse. Aged animal corpses, yes. Recent human remains, yes. Not old, dead bodies. Anyways, I still think a mixture of human hair and cardboard being burned is the worst, though.
I came from a pretty bad neighborhood, and everything was burned. I swear, from a bird's-eye view, it would look like there was a raging fire along the bayou at times.
-
So who died?
We never really knew, and apparently it was pretty hard to tell what he could've looked like, but few people suggested it might've been an old man living nearby. I guess the fact that he was in a van with closed doors and windows, the heat was kept inside and it kinda... say, "cooked" the corpse in some way, which made it worse.
The product used to dye hair smell terrible, too.
-
I have an incredibly sensitive sense of smell. I can't stand anything too pungent, be it good or bad.
-
My sense of taste is nearly dead.
I apparently made something so spicy my mom almost puked, and it was only pleasantly strong for me.
-
XD Chemoreception fail.
-
There was a dead animal stuck in our wall once. We couldn't find where it was though so we had to just wait until it went away. Also my brother put leftover salmon in the pantry once. Stinky!
-
No we had to wait for the smell to go away XD
-
Well Lucas might be right actually. Since you never saw it, you can't really tell it wasn't a zombie.
-
True, true.
-
See. Theres always a chance I'm right. Most times its smaller than the chance of me being wrong, but thats not the point here.
If it counts for anything, the fact that your theory involves zombies increases the chances of your being right by roughly 102.3%.
-
So considering he's right about 3% of the time, the chance he was right was about 6%. Quite an increase indeed.
But he may still be right. Can't prove what you haven't seen, except when it comes to God.
Or wait. You mean an additional 102.3% or 102.3% of his current chance, which is 3% and would still remain 3%?
-
Either way, the man is at least twice as right as he was before.
-
No.
102.3% of 3% would be 3.069, while and additional 102.3% would be adding that 3.069% to the 3%, which would then result in 6.069%. So you can't say "either way" since the first would only be an increase of 0.069%, therefore not twice as before. Let's just wait until Zerlina confirms whether it was 102.3 of 3% or an additional 102.3% (so a total of 202.3%).
I still believe he is right, though. The smell wouldn't disappear just like that, the corpse was probably moved. But since it was stuck between walls, nothing could've moved it, so it probably moved on its own. And what do you call a corpse that move by its own? Zombie.
-
Indeed, I haven't thought about that. Damn, we really need her to confirm what she meant to stop all this confusion!
-
The chance that I'll tell you is about 101.6% greater than the likelihood that Lucas is right.
-
Okay. So she didnt add 102.3% to the chance. Otherwise the chance of she telling is would be over 2 hundred and she would have said it already.
Are you really going to believe the guy who has a base 3% chance of being right?
-
Quick, Lucas, include zombies in your theory!
-
Zombies tend to attack when you don't tell us, Zerl!
-
So, guys, my computer is fixed. Kinda. It has no software at all aside the internet explorer, winrar, and flash, and no archives either. But next week we're taking it to have the old archives inserted back.
I had mostly nothing to do with my free time, but this got me around to make all those gaming things I never bothered before:
Finishing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney for the wiiware (before it broke)
Finishing Phoenix Wright: Justice For all for the wiiware
Finishing Devil Survivor (got the bad ending, though...)
Buying and finishing No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle
Finishing Smash Bros' Brawl Subspace Emissary in the hardest difficulty (By abusing Ike and Marth's counterattack on every single enemy) and it was especially fun because I already had changed most songs in Brawl, and they even appear mid-cutscenes sometimes. It's awesome to see Dedede challenging Bowser and have Burn My Dread (Last Battle) playing as the fight goes on, or TWEWY songs playing as you fight your way in the Mother 3 stages, or the main theme of Metal Gear 2 come up when Snake appears (much better theme for him then Theme of Solid, I believe)
Getting the best ending in Pikmin.
Getting to the last dugeon of The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past (had to sent the wii for repairs around there so couldn't finish the game)
Finishing The Munchables (great overlooked game right there, the cover looks kiddish and frankly like a shovelware, but anyone who ever played Katamari should give this a try)
Making another immortal Persona (and Anubis that can null, reflect or absorb anything but Megi attacks, and those give like 20 damage to him after I perfected his defense. Beat death on Rush.)
Finishing Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box.
Beating One Piece: Unlimited Cruise 2 on hard
Buying Devil Summoner 2 (never played the first, but I can get around to understand most stuff anyways)
Buying Miles Edgeworth Investigations (first case is meh, the rest of the game gives Apollo Justice a run for it, and they managed to play well the nostalgia in this one, I just wish the Judge had more screen time)
