Oh boy, ILX! That's where I'm a viking!..?

dude became easily shockable somewhere along the way

110-33 i mean in a fistfight there would be fatalities on your side dyao, fatalities

"Shocked" is a metaphor for "talking shite in a desperate sustained effort to get randomers to engage with the first spunk that dribbles out of my tear duct".

ok i'm shocked by the visceral end to that sentence tbh

It was a metaphor

i finnd metaphors difficult to comprehend. can you explain that to me?

bring it on imo

I never metaphor I didn't like btw

metaphor? i hardly touched her!

I thought about this thread today when I was on Manhunt and I saw a guy with a Nordic-related screename and the headline: "active viking guy"

His profile did not explain whether that meant that he turned into a Viking during sex or whether he was just really good at it.

for a second i thought you meant you were playing this and i was really confused

is this thread going to go the way of the moa-nalo now?

Sush, this thread is one of the immortals.

Well better install a brand new server to host the thread when it hits 75,438 messages and Tuomas has gone through three Suggest Ban cycles.

(hums "We Are the Champions")(eats a pickle)(takes a short, refreshing nap)

Naps, that's where Aimless is a viking

I'm getting long in the tooth, dearie

But the worms still go down slick as a whistle.

I always lose at these ILX polls... but I think Ralph would lose to

that is some n/l rationalizing

pretty sure Ralph wouldn't get a thorough, vigourous SBing

I find kinda funny that Viking in Sleep crew thinks they've "won" now... It was obvious long before the poll ended that more people support that interpretation than Viking of Sleep, but it wouldn't the first time in world history where the majority was wrong.

Bomb Finland.

You should find it kinda funny, because people are being facetious with their "VICTORY" reactions. Did you perhaps misinterpret these reactions???

Of course I did, otherwise I couldn't have made my grandiose statement.

what happened to you having too much fun partying to bother us again until Sunday?

man that Sierra Manhunter game seemed awesome at the time, I wonder if it actually sucks

I was a Viking at that game

I never played it, only marveled at it through the pages of the Sierra in-house "magazine" aka catalog.

manhunter kinda sucks. graphics/aesthetic pretty dope tho.

also spent a lot of time reading and rereading the sierra magazine.

other games I never played but was drawn into via the Sierra Magazine:

Codename: Iceman
Gobliiins
EcoQuest (eventually played this a decade later, sucked)
many more

mediocre games they successfully sucked me into:

A-10 Tank Killer
Heart of China
Jones in the Fast Lane
many many many more

wish i had saved my early 90s issues of cgw & egm.. memories....

wowza thank u :D

Dr Casino : Gobliiins is awesome.

And Tuomas - you don't seem to believe in a right answer to this question, so why comment at all?

this should clear things up

Sierra in-house magazine was cool but paled in comparison to the Lucasfilm Games newsletter The Adventurer (Steve Purcell comix!)

i'm married to a major b

wait that kinda sounds wrong

yeah it was hilarious--i was setting up the question just like whiney did, but i offered "literally a viking" first, and then she completed my sentence with option a, because that's what she always thought it was, and because option b isn't funny, and she basically nailed all the classic a arguments in about 5 minutes. my jaw just dropped--it was so hilarious and perfect.

but she is smart and opinionated and strong-willed and neither of us were about to be swayed so we laughed and she made fun of me for engaging in a weeklong debate abt it on ilx, and those are all reasons why i <3 her so much.

I introduced the question to a couple friends the other night, and it was like an instant rehash of this thread, almost beat for beat.
