The interesting trivia/facts about yourself thread

I don't get the trickster hate.
Assholes don't go around giving people 3 games for free.

 

Because he's the most prominent person in Empires?

I've given out plenty of games for free, out of complete selfishness.

 

Grant is 204

 

Actually, I'm totally the same, I outright refuse payment for fixing people's shit. A variety of reasons really.

1) I just don't need the money. It's worth far more to anyone who could give me the money than it is to me.

2) Even if the fixing PCs is complex and a genuine skill I've put time into learning, I find it easy enough now that I struggle to justify taking money for something so easy.

3) I don't want them to think I'm some sort of paid service where I can fix their shit whenever for £30. I do things in my own time, when I have time.

Whilst arguably not by people who know me online as well (Slade/Shitstorm), I'm thought of as really nice by most work colleagues, family members, family friends, and the family OF friends. But my actual friends know I'm an asshole.

 

Holy fuck. edit: That was for Grant being a munster.

I cannot pass up free money. If I do someone a favour, not expecting money, and then they give me money? Fuck yeah, I'm having that money.

 

Good at calculus? Try some analysis. It's been two years and I'm still working on it.

 

Don't ask for money and they owe you a favour instead.

I can't hold back my laughter when I see/hear a character doing the evil laugh. It's also one of the few things that can make me laugh.

 

I'll be honest and say I'd be more likely to take it if I genuinely needed it, but I've never really been in that position.

I feel like I've been brought up always having just the right amount of money to spend myself, and always understanding the value at the time. Like when you were younger, £5 was fucking loads.

Obviously as you get older, you know it isn't. For me, it all built up really progressively. When I was younger, I'd get given £1 coins, but most of my Birthday and Christmas money would either be spent for me or put into a bank account I had no access to. As I got older, I got to spend a larger and larger proportion of my Birthday and Christmas money. Then, just as I was really starting to need money, my Granddad snuffed it, and I started getting £200/month from his pension. That held me until I started my first job (full-time), and then to my job now.

Having a real appreciation for money at a level at which you use it, and being able to properly manage your finances, is probably the most useful life skill you can have.

 

And I thought we got all that height business work out in the last thread...

-sigh-

Boys will be boys.

 

well my interesting fact was that I broke the cliche of azn's being small.

 

You're on the off topic forum of an obscure half life 2 mod with the most entertainingly retarded community of any game I know. You're in the ass of the internet so stop bitching, mkay. :D

 

This is a place worse than the ass bro.

 

Depends what size we're talking bout.

 

8 hours and this topic is already 4 pages. You guys are narcissists

 

Internet. Shutup.

 

I always wanted to use that, but then not everyone else would, so then I wouldn't always remember to quote the previous post if it's going onto the next page (and I'm replying to it) and shit like that.

 

- I was a vegan for six years but then i suddenly felt like giving a crap about animal rights.

- I got braces (again) with 26. To my surprise, nobody really cared.

- I once dreamed about ukgamer.

 

I heavily drank and did smoke weed from age 15 to 19. Then I decided to say no to alcohol and weed. At age 22, after loosing connection to a lot of friends because I hated going to parties with them drunk and me staying sober, I decided to start drinking again but less often and less amounts. I still hate people that do weed. ove:
