Dear diary: DT sucked ass

[Dark_Silence]

--1) Liking each other enough to start a relationship the day you see each other is, to me, a relationship, even if you don't call it so. You don't need names for something to exist.


1) It's never "too late" to marry. We're not rushing anything "because it will be too late afterwards".


4) I feel like i've known Ivana forever, but i wouldn't expect you two to understand that.

1. We said we didnt start the relation online before we saw each other. We never talked of being together before be actually met each other...

1.2: I didnt say it would be too late to marry, on the contary, i feel that there is a "too soon"...

4. Then you fucked up on this one... because we feel like we have known each other for a long time. But still there is a difference between living with each other for a long time than just spend some time together...

Since we obviously make such a bad couple, yea.

Honestly guys, do you know how fucking sick I am of this argument? Tali/Dark Silence, I know your intention's are good, but it really isn't your business to tell them how to live. Sure, if he mentions that he's getting married and it upsets you two, then tell him so! Don't make a big deal and start bringing up the validity of meeting online.

Undo/Rincewind, I love you guys, but if you know posting your intentions is going to piss people off, well, don't! I know it must suck not to be able to profess whatever it is you think, but I'm pretty sure this forum isn't democratic Okay, that wasn't really serious, but it's pretty much hopeless, you know?

O well, I've probably just ruined a few good friendships, but I'm sure the forum would appreciate it if you peeps just dropped it.

^ True, I understand that everyone is in shock, like me,I can't believe my "mexican-wales" lad is getting married!!!



Anyway, don't feel pressured by what other people say, if ye want to get married adn if ye feel it in your hearts, than go on. Even though this sounds cheesy, you have my "blessings" .

I hope you two have a happy life together .

Now, Undo, will ye post the bootlegs somewhere please?

Ah, but that which we call a rose, would, in fact, by any other name smell as sweet?

People in a relationship are not the kind of individuals you should turn to when you want opinions based on common sense and rationality. It doesn't surprise me at all that both couples feel a special bond, feel that they've known each other for longer than is actually the case, that they fit like a glove. It doesn't surprise me that Undo and Rincewind are talking about marriage, as I believe that it comes natural to want these things when you're feeling happy with your partner, unless of course you're averse to marriage for other reasons. I'm sure that they'll either go on with their plan and live together everafter - at least for a bit - or succumb under the weight of circumstance (the distance between them, the strain of finding jobs...). In either case, they're not less real or serious in their intentions than any other couple I know of: it's just that sometimes it ends well and other times it doesn't.

But let's get to the real issue here, the real thing I will never, ever stop to tease Undo and Rincewind about for as long as I live:

there's a LOTR-elvish-style wedding coming up in the near future.

Someone bought a LOTR One Ring for --and proposed to-- someone else --

I don't know if there has ever been a more appropriate occasion to imply that I'm "rolling on the floor laughing" (even though I'm definitely not: the cleaning ladies haven't washed it in days). There is a circle of hell specifically meant for LARP-ing folks who marry off their role-playing personae in ridiculous cerimonies meant to replicate this or that fantasy book / movie / videogame.

No, you are just one hell of a cool guy, and I totally agree with you.

ravhin: But larpers are cool, they get to play around with swords and chainmails, even though the swords are fake, probably won't cut or stab well.

UC and Rince: Well, I'm happy for you both, and best wishes to your marriage. Beers to you both! (unless the marriage's a fake, like those larpers) But seriously, a LotR ring is just cheap. It's just a golden ring with shiny "elvish" legal mumbo jumbo carved into it. Get her a diamond ring!
But hey, it's your choice.

 

[Taliesin]

Im sick of that discussion as well. I felt compelled to reply, since I think for many reasons, marriage is something very different from "a piece of paper". I'll try to turn any attempt to continue this discussion around.. we'll see if it works

 

[marduk1507]

Hey Tal, what the hell is "Brindisäure" or "Brindiharz"? What kind of acid or resin is it? Im working on a project for Krones, and this is beyond me. Thanks! Suggestions from other fellow-Germans are most welcome!

 

[Taliesin]

It's a supplement in acids, used to clean tanks. Sometimes, there are stone-like incrustations on the walls of tanks, so acids are used to clean that away. The Brindi-resin is added to the acid to stop it from attacking the metal underneath the stone. As far as I know, an acid with the Brindi-resin is called a Brindi-acid. I havent found a chemical formula yet, but I guess there are several, depending on what you want to clean away. Since it was probably a Mr.Brindi who develloped this, it's called Brindi-resin and Brindi-acid.
Hope I could help

 

[marduk1507]

Well, I knew that much, but thanks anyway - I have problems translating it into Slovak, cause it seems we dont know Mr Brindi here, which sucks. Its a compound from HCl and that silly Brindi-resin and water. Isnt there any other name for it, or maybe chemical name (dont bother with formula). Thanks!

 

[Taliesin]

I found an english article and it said "Brindi-resin" or "Brindi-acid", so using those terms should be fine I think. I mean, it's probably not going to have another name, since it must be a pretty recent invention.

 

[marduk1507]

Well, I think its time to introduce Mr Brindi anyway (Ive been fighting with this since the beginning of July, some 150 pages, and Im very close to the end, so Brindi wont stop me). Thank you!

 

[Taliesin]

No problem Mr. Marduk

 

[plintus]

I had a revelation: WC sucks ass!

I'm rolling on the floor with Rahvin, btw That should be in a dictionary under "pathetic, totally pathetic"

 

[marduk1507]

WC? Is it a typo or do you really mean a toilet?
That was nasty, I know.

 

[King Chaos]

2) But you would have. Or else you don't love each other that much, which is fucked up if you ask me, but ok.

I'm sorry, I don't want to bring up the whole "Lets get married" debockle again, so I'll try and avoid it in this hopefully brief rant. Love isn't real. Love is a word used to ensnare children who watch too many fairytales and idiots who watch too much MTV. You grow up thinking one day you'll have to make sacrifices and pay homage to the mystical nimbus that is "love"... when all love is is your dependency on/lust for another person, idealised romantically so you think you're now part of some Romeo and juliet/The OC bread cult. don't get me wrong, I have no qualm about people being in love, if they've got to know each other and they are happy and it makes people happy to be told someone loves them etc... But thinking you have to make all kinds of sacrifices and take on extreme tasks just because the modern 'love' nimbus hangs over you is totally absurd. Because the rant comes full circle here, love actually doesn't exist. We are animals. And like all animals we have instincts. Monkeys don't fall in love. Lions don't fall in love. Yet they have very similar relationships to us. They reproduce. The difference being they don't understand all those soppy corrupting disney movies their kind has frequently been featured in.

Someone bought a LOTR One Ring for --and proposed to-- someone else -- at Evolution Festival.

So who was it that bought the ring and proposed? Rincewind?

I do agree with Zack and rahvin, but i really do wish happiness to the two of you (ie UC and Rince, not Zack and rahvin, you sickos).

 

[RampageSword]

Someone bought a LOTR One Ring for --and proposed to-- someone else -- at Evolution Festival.

Best wishes then, Undo and Rince. Hope you'll live happily together for a long time.

However, I can't help myself, I have to join rahvin and plinty with the "roll on the floor laughing" thing. A LOTR ring is just lame IMO.

 

[plintus]

WC? Is it a typo or do you really mean a toilet?
That was nasty, I know.

It was done on purpose: it's not UC as in UnderwareControl, but WC as in you know where.
