i dont know which of the upcoming games are at the simpler end of the spectrum but i'd be happy to mentor you next time one comes up - there's a good crowd in the overlap between tr mafia and ratz mafia, quite possibly the bestest people on the internet :dance:

Oblivion, considering that I managed to keep a straight face yesterday evening, that^^ is so very :coffee:


One of my more innocent fellow students - he's almost young enough to be my son - asked me regarding my CV and hobbies: "Is there anything you *haven't* done?" while the customer and the course personnel representative were still present. I mentioned scuba and skydiving, and the discussion focus turned elsewhere...

The effort to suppress all kinds of graphic answer alternatives was markedly non-trivial for a moment there - for some reason especially "naked pole-dancing" kept creeping up from my subconscious :oops:
