Only two? So why do you act like Britain is your mortal enemy? Even the puny Netherlands had four wars against the Brits (and that is before I even count Napoleon's war).

the word dime came from disme, meaning one tenth, but it was americanized over time. originally, nickels were called half dismes, but when they started using nickel to make them instead of silver, people started calling them nickels to differentiate them.

and shos, we do use the term, quarter, for our 25 cent coins.

that's about as stupid as me starting to call my mom "ginger" when she dies her hair.

they might have started out saying nickel half disme but that's a bit of a mouthful.  

from now on, the u.s. should only mint coins in prime number denominations. bye bye, dimes; and hello, 11-cent coins!

i agree jazz, it would also be useful 4 dolla 99s.

Wow, I was not aware that we should be treating coins like we do our mothers

i was not aware that mothers came in 11-cent denominations


but really

i mean, if goldbach's conjecture holds true, you'll only need two coins for anything

yo mama comes in an 11-cent denomination.

@jazz or you could just write checks for everything

Sad how after 2 days there's only been one new post (not including this one).

Made my first Craigslist purchase today. Went well. Seller was not a serial killer, or Shos.

man, that could have ended up really horribly. could've gotten hurt, maybe even killed? glad it wasn't shos.

May the Fourth be with you

So last night/this morning there was a party for. It was overnight, and nobody slept. On the way home, my dad gets a text from the scoutmaster about a service project which I would need to do to go to summer camp, even though I just really wanted to sleep. Anyway, I end up doing the service project, and it all goes fine, and I get home and something terrifies me. I have no idea what, but it was terrifying. So I'm trying to go to sleep at about noon while trying to figure what it even was that was terrifying.
Pretty sure it was a bad dream.

Fallout 4 is going to have level-building features in it, are we going to add it to our list of games when it comes out?

That's a great idea! Do you know anything about how the level-building features work?

Also, does anyone know what happened to Sprout? A while ago he was on at least twice a week, but I haven't seen him on in a month or two.

@Mymop: They talked about it a little bit at E3 earlier this month, and it looked like it would be sort of like a mix between Hearthfire and Minecraft, but a lot more open-ended than Hearthfire although not quite as sandbox-y as Minecraft. In Hearthfire you could choose from a small number of predesigned parts of houses... which was ok I guess. Nothing especially interesting though.

In the demo of Fallout 4, however, they showed you being able to make your own houses however large or tall or whatever as you like. The world isn't made out of blocks so I don't think there is quite as much potential as Minecraft, but it certainly will play a very important role in the game (and hopefully the Interguild following November 10th). I'm sure you can find the demo on youtube or something and see for yourself, it looks like a lot of fun.

He was last on on June 18th, that's not that long ago, and certainly hasn't missed much. The times I have seen him on, he's been hidden, so maybe that's why you feel like you haven't seen him in a while. His decision, I can't blame him.

Life get to you eventually Sprout's probably fighting there too

I believe in you Sprout, don't die on us bro

No really though, answer the questions I am in sort of dire need of assistance

Is the member list updated manually or automatically? I'm wondering because about a week ago I got a friend of mine to make an account and I can't find his username on the member list.
