Online games is good for getting to know people. So here is a few from my draweer . Share any if you want.

I cant remember everything but here is a few I can still remember

Applegeek the woman that never sleeps.

Applegeek was like the name suggest an apple geek. She offered me during our talks several of her old apples. Which I declined cause the cost of shipping would probably be more than the value of the computer itself.

She lived in Texas and her husband was on the organ donor list. Him needing a heart or some such organ which one needs to stay alive I cant remember which one.
Well she never slept due to her having to stay awake so that when her husbands faulty organ decided to kick the can she would immediately be able to get him to a hospital. So what she did was sleep for 15 minutes and then be awake for 45 minutes and then sleep for 15 minutes again. All through her day.

This caused her to chat constantly in online games as she had to keep busy. She was though a social master and could talk about and topic for hours She also could get very grumpy probably from not sleeping to much. And got a bad rep when she lost it in her new alliance the drunk monkeys. Apparently drunk monkeys dont appreciate old woman hollering at them. In the end she being in her 60's (grandma) she got a bit too intense for the particular game we were playing and they perma banned her.

Wild Turkey's Cat


Wild Turkey had a girlfriend and she had a cat. And due to some unforeseen happening the cat got into an accident and got brain damaged This changed the cats persona and he suddenly grew very fond of his misses but very hateful towards Wild Turkey.

So Wild Turkey would always tell me in much anger how the cat attacked him again . Usually by jumping from the top of some closet and landing on him with claws barred.

Or by grabbing onto his legs when he was walking in the flat. Indeed the flat had became a war zone.

Wild Turkey would also complain a lot about how and his gf argued about the cat. And how he made some ultimatums that would fall on deaf ears and how the cat was always winning in these arguments it being injured etc etc and never displaying its madness in the company of its misses.. Also how the cat would be present during this heated arguments and would somehow he felt be laughing at him.



He also several times confessed plans to murder the cat . But of course it had to look like some kind of accident.

Krakkens Lizzard

Last year whilst at my office I saw a lizzard about a foot long running from our neighbors yard into our yard and into our office.



The back door was not locked and when I inspected or office I saw the lizard had ran into my office and was hiding under some kind of desk.

Now the problems was legion as these lizards tails can hit with a force like that of a heavy weight boxer and I could not grab it and throw it out. It was winter and it needed warmth so it was quite snug under the desk which was the hottest place to be found.

I several times placed food and milk for it to move to another office but each day I would see its hind feet again near the desk or printers and it usually scurried away under the desk when it sensed my presence.

Taming wild animals is a double edged sword for they can never return to the wild if their held in captivity too long for example a dove will return to its cage once you release it. Even if its cage is open. And eventually they will be caught by cats or even dogs as due to their being in the protection of a cage they never learned the defense mechanism of their wild cousins and will often sleep on the ground. So capturing and keeping him as a pet was not really an option. Besides that it would be quite expensive as they require constant heating.

So what to do. For the next 3 weeks he was in my office to the hilarity of my cleric friends especially Micutzu ("the little one" in Romanian) who had a pet lizard of his own.

Eventually we got him to the kitchen and even after some locals offered to catch him we somehow had him released into the open.

This being a business district and due to his stay now being a bit tamer unfortunately things would take a turn for the worse.

He ran onto the side of our office and was spotted by one of the locals. The custom and belief is that lizards is very dangerous and will when your sleeping on the floor suck out your brains through your nose. Not that I think one has much brains if one beliefs such stuff to begin with but anyway.

A chilling scream erupted and soon a group of them had gathered . They being extremely afraid of him and running about 10 metres each time he moved a centimeter in their direction madness erupted they dancing and running around constantly and throwing stones at him.

After one had gathered him in his bag I bought the bag from him and promised him an extreme beating as he wanted to grab the bag afterwards.

I gave the bag to another spectator(who dont share this belief) and hope the lizard made it as indeed he was hit by some stones.


Fyrom why the issue

The issue started in 1991 when "Macedonia - the country" declared independence as "the Republic of Macedonia". Greece objected as it has historically a region called Macedon also called Macedonia and the people calling themselves Macedonians.

The reference to Fyrom as the former yugoslav republic of macedonia is considered an insult as its used by countries not recognizing the republic of macedonia to refer to their country. For example this would be like referring to Canada as that other big country in the american continent or T.O.B.C.I.T.A.C as one word Tobcitac.

Historically Macedon was 2 regions the second Macedonia now being the region that declared itself a country but now filled with yugoslav people instead of Greeks.

I have no dog in this horse but it is interesting the arguments mostly relying on historical sentimentalities.

Also the war has waged for edecades in erep.
