((Okay all,

So, I'm busy not doing stuff I should be doing. And, as such, I'm reading through some of the stuff on the TV Tropes page. And, I have to say, their Console RPG Clichés are pretty amusing.

So... for your amusement and procrastination. ))

Something I learned while wasting my time:

Some people have no idea what makes a cliché a cliché and just like to rattle off "statistical" numbers in order to sound intelligent.

((Um... okay. Not sure how statistics relates to clichés but... okay.

You get on with your bad-Statistical-self, Silv. ))

Hey Caroline, what's with the brackets before and after everything you type? I've never really asked that before, this could possibly be something I could potentially learn whilst wasting time!

Huh. I guess that might be it? I have no idea. Maybe it's because I've been out of action for so long.

(( Space Cats and Arty,

I use the double-parentheses, as I'm talking. I haven't had Caroline really chat in a while. So... since they're my thoughts / comments, I put the double-parentheses before and after them.

I do the same thing when I play WoW as well. ))
