I ask him how he got an upgrade and it turns out it's because he just

Regardless, I saw the humor in this and laughed it off.

This induces screams of excitement. And of course the (...) (22 years ago, 26-Jan-03, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.space)

Hmm...yes. As your K-wing met it's match against Boddingtons, My Black Seas Baracuda fell victim to the power of Guiness during the party of '91. I wish I could retell the tale, but the details remain a little fuzzy to this day. Ahem. More recently (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jan-03, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.space)

My Feisar anti-gravity racing craft MOC (based on the game Wipeout) had suffered greatly multiple times due to my own clumsiness. I can only imagine what my clumsiness has in store for the skyscraper I'm building. O_o (22 years ago, 31-Jan-03, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.space)
