I'll lose for sure, well maybe not depending on if I'm in the mood. But I can totally direct you to some Risk players that will give you a challenge.
 
Would love to play risk with you guys in person.

Stratego too!
 
I forgot to say in my original post, something amazing happened when me and my friends were out.

We were all crammed in a small car, 3 in back and 2 in front. We were listening to the radio when Bohemian Rhapsody came on. Every single person in the car knew it, and we were all singing it EXACTLY like in Wayne's World - it was absolutely perfect. So much fun. We even had picked up one of my friends who was piss drunk and he was sitting in the middle, too (singing also). It was one of the most epic moments of my life. I was sitting in front passenger seat.
 
Had the worst ****ing day today. There have been some shitty days in my life, but this one takes the trophy. It started out decent because I got to work and everyone was like "Hey Jake! What's going on!?" Then the shit started to roll down the hill from there. All the old people from the north have come down for a festival that goes on in the city, they're horrible drivers, horribly mannered and worst of all, smelly. We were as busy as I've ever seen the store in the past 3 months, no more than 2 minutes of time to catch some sort of composure. After wearing myself out by making all these damn orders, my manager tells me to go on break. I think to myself, "**** yes. Time for Subway." I climb in my car, back out of my parking spot and see that there's a truck with a bucket on it putting a sign up for the pizza place that's opening next door. No biggie, I'll just go the back way to a light where I can get going the right way. I turn from an adjacent parking lot to the light, it's green and I say out loud, I guess someone loves me. I get halfway to the light and it turns yellow. I face palm and wait at the light for 3 and a half minutes. GREEN! I go and get behind an old person from Pennsylvania. I can't go around them because there's a semi to my right, so I wait for my turn to come up and it'll be ok. Here's my turn annnd he's going to the same place. **** my life. They wait for a hole that at least 5 semi's could fill then goes. I decided that the hole was big enough for me and I'll follow. Little did I know that driver is very cautious about going into parking lots and he takes his time, slowly but surely pulling into the lot. I thought to myself that I could have drove to my ex's house, ****ed her in the ass, came back and he'd still be 5 feet away from the curb. Turns out I didn't have that much time because a SUV was coming down the road towards me. I couldn't back up because another bastard went all the way to the front of the concrete. So there I was trapped in the road waiting for old saggy pants to drive into the ****ing lot and I found myself yelling. He finally went in and drove off somewhere and I went to take a parking spot. Old man comes out of ****ing nowhere and steals my park. He moved like a god damned jack rabbit to grab the spot. I go park on the other side of the building. Finally, I get a foot inside Subway to see that there are little brats running and causing havoc for the mother that was giving the poor Subway girl her order. After waiting in line, getting my sandwich made I got up to the register to pay. I pull out my card, hand it to the girl, she swipes it. She tells me that the computer has crashed, and from the look on her face I thought she had walked into a room where there were 7 and a half brutally murdered midgets hanging from the roof. Apparently I was not hiding that I was utterly pissed off. They told me that the card machine wasn't working and that I needed to use cash. I never carry cash. There I go over to the ATM to get cash, it seemed that God was running the machine because I was the only damned thing that worked. Gave the girl the cash, she gave me change and I left. Climbed in my car ready to get the **** out of there, I get backed out and then this dickwad starts backing out of his spot. I think, "Alright, 2 seconds and I'm out of here." He waits for this Mexican family of 300 to pass by and I can't back out because, you guessed it, there was someone behind me. ****. My. Life. Were the words that came out in that moment.

I have a 30 minute break to eat food, piss/shit, drink and whatnot. That trip took 27 minutes. The night was worse, but we'll save that story for another day.

The night was worse, but we'll save that story for another day.

I read all of that without, for once, thinking tl;dr and you've got my sympathy for going through a day which has now made my worst day ever look wonderful. I'm also interested in what happened during the night now because I am doubtful that anything else could be as bad as that or worse, so do tell.
 
It is a new day on the East coast, so here it goes.

I just got promoted a few weeks ago in a restaurant, so I'm still learning the ropes of the paperwork and making sure the employees are doing their jobs correctly. Even though I've closed the store by myself twice, I already have a list of people that I will check thoroughly at the end of the night to make sure that EVERYTHING is done. I had two of those people out of a 6 person shift. I was running the shift, there was a new employee running dish, so I knew that he was going to run till about 10 (we close at 8:30). What I didn't see coming was the guy that was supposed to make the food called out sick. I couldn't get a hold of anyone (including managers) to get to cover the shift. The first thought that ran through my mind was that I was going to have to close the sandwich line, dish AND do the ****ing manager duties. Which turned out to be correct. I worked on making the food by myself (which is usually a 2 person job) for 2 hours, helped the dish guy get his shit taken care of, then started whatever I could with the paper work. 9:30 rolls around and the person that I check out to go home harder than I do Jessica Alba knocks on the door saying that he's ready. I asked him "Are you sure that there is nothing more that needs to be done?" He says yes. Round 1: I found so much shit that he didn't do and I tell him to do it and I go back to paper work. Round 2: Half the stuff I told him to do the first time he didn't do and I find more stuff I missed. Back to the sandwich line to finish up over there. Round 3: I told him that if I find one thing that I pointed out last time not done that he's going to close the line. He walks back over to his station. I finish up the line, check out the other person that was ready to go, she had a few things that needed to be fixed, but she did them without issue. Person #1 comes back saying that he's ready, I go over and from what I saw everything was good. I go and check on the dish dude and he's no farther than from where I left him. Take a second to double face palm, annnd time to jump in and super clean. 10:30 comes out of nowhere and butt ****s me, I tell the dude what else he needs to do and that I need to finish paper work. 5 minutes later he knocks and says that he's ready to go. I'm thinking to myself "Like hell you are." And I was right. He did nothing I told him to do and just wiped down random walls. I told him again what he needed to do and to actually do it this time because I wanted to go home. Back in the office with me, 10 minutes and I'm done with the paper work, I come out and see that he's made progress. I help him finish up and clock out at 10:55.

I wanted to shoot all of them.

Wall of text!


Sounds like you got overtime played! They'll be rolling in their overtime dough now!
 
Does Kami have to choke a bitch? I think so.

I can kill the whole staff and start over again.
 
Nine Inch Nails is going on a farewell tour with Jane's Addiction. Yep.

I read the post on nin.com, but it's not goodbye forever is it? Just another extended hiatus... god, I hope so, The Slip would be a horrible, horrible way to end NIN.
 
You poor bastard Kami. I'll drink a beer for you during the tournaments.
 
Hey Kami, re your Subway story, next time try walking somewhere.
 
I ate a sandwich half way 'till i realized it was moldy. Now im sick. Jesus i keep wondering why these thing happen to me? First the finger, now this.
 
I'll bite. It's misc after all.

I am bloody happy that Serious Ivan dissapeared, he resurrected old threads with joy.
 
For lunch here at work, I'm going to go home and eat while playing EVE Online.......
 
Had an epic stare down after school today. The drummer of my band is the guitarist of another and their drummer was walking down the hall, he looked at me and said "Stop trying to steal my band's guitarist."
 
Guess who just got totally ditched by the guy he's known for 14 years and thought he was best friends with.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-
 
I can't remember, time was standing still. I said it was epic didn't I?
