Title: Talk about irony...
Post by: demon442 on February 22, 2003, 11:07:53 pm
Have I got a story for you guys...

I just purchased "The 'Mech Collection", a box set of MechWarrior 4, Black Knight, and Mech Commander 2.  That afternoon, i also came down with a flu.  After dragging myself through buying groceries, i fnally got out to my vehicle.  Then it promtly started to rain as i was loading the bags, needless to say i wasn't in a good mood.  After i got in the truck a few drops hit the wind-shield, then a downpour.  Realizing that the box was not plastic wrapped (damn smaller boxes), quickly hopped out and closed the door in my finger.  After screaming a slew of not-so-nice words, digging arround for the box and driving home, i find that everything above the middle knuckle is crushed and im going to lose the nail.

The Irony: I cant play the games i bought because i hurts too much to grip my joystick.

Not ironic.

Irony would have been if the Mech Collection had somehow directly contributed to your being unable to play it. Or if your computer had been stepped on by a giant robot.

I'd have paid money to see demon's computer stepped on by a giant robot.

nail's falling off don't look to good. I knocked my sis's off with a tree limb once....:D

EDIT: but it does turn millions of different colors before turning black and falling off.

Seriously.

Broke my big toe a year and a week ago playing basketball and it just normaled out color and started growing again like a month or two ago. Hurt like hell when I'd try to walk for the first two months..
