Only Dark Souls. I'm about to clear Sen's Fortress but the Iron Golem is a boring and long-ass fight. I can't do enough damage, so I can only do a bettle of attrition, that is, until I take a shitty step and fall off to my death.

No Wii U for a while, and no new games to entertain me on the 3DS so I'll probably take a brief sabbatical from gaming until Sonic and Phoenix Wright come out. Just as well, as a wonderful family disaster has struck. Word to the wise, don't have kids. Ever.

Dammit!  Why didn't you tell me this before.  I completely undue suns where you are coming from.

I love your auto-correct posts!

  it's like I just had dental work done and am still feeling the effects of the novacaine.  I need to disable it.  It works against me more than for me.

Oh dude we've set a new one. My teenage daughter brought a plastic ninja dagger to school. She got caught with it, and now she's getting expelled. Thanks Zero Tolerance policy.

And sorry. Just don't have anymore okay? 2 is enough.

Yeah. There's a weapon's policy and if it looks like a weapon it's considered a weapon.

It is strange how different things are from when we were in school. Plastic weapons will get you expelled, but listening to an iPod in class is fine. When I was a kid you'd get in trouble for having a walkman, but a bunch of us would bring buck knives to school to carve wood with during our lunch break.

I should have calrified as I meant vgpress only members playing GTA. You also are part of RoF so I dont count you.

Ok well when you are all serious about playin GTA Online then we can make a vgpress crew but experience tells me trying to get online games with guys from this site is hard to do. Meanwhile I have had plenty of great game nights with the RoF crew on other games so yeah.

First she had a mandatory 10 day suspension. That's done. Now she has to go to "alternative school" aka juvi school for a week until her hearing. At that point they'll decide if she's expelled for this semester or for the entire school year. Then she can either keep going to juvi school or virtual school. We actually went to this school for orientation last week and jesus christ it's terrible. So yeah she'll be doing virtual school from home. It's a real big waste of time, energy, and resources. Not to mention possibly screwing up her academic future.

The zero tolerance policies are getting out of control. A couple weeks ago some middle school kid in another state got expelled for having a keychain in the shape of a gun that was smaller than a quarter. At some point someone is going to file a huge lawsuit against a school system and win, and then they'll drop the zero tolerance crap. In the meantime though it's the sad reality of this country's school system.

Speaking of RoF, I really wish more of those guys would come here after the board dies. I like what Tony did and will probably join soon, but would have liked to see the two boards mingle.
