Forgotten Tales

↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ DUH! Wut?

Initials changed to protect the innocent.

Knew a person, A.B., who was DUH Stupid!

Well, while a bunch of us were sitting around, having a brew, talking about his latest stupid stunt he had pulled, in walks C.D., grabs a beer and listens for a while.

C.D.: "A.B. isn't stupid You are all wrong!"
One of the guys, after a stunned moment of silence, " C.D., this is A.B. we are talking about the stupidest person we all know."
C.D., " No, you're wrong. See, in order to be classified as stupid, a person has to have a degree of intelligence. A.B. doesn't have any, therefor he's not stupid!"

Now that's an Einstein Moment!

Hahahahaha no, in the 80' there was no password to give.

A couple of mild ones:

Standing in the tent of a German Polterabend, looking up at the big bread pretzels strung up across the tent, with a quizzical look on his face the lady about to get married asked him what was wrong. Without even looking at her he said, "I'm trying to figure out how to get a pretzel." Not saying a word, she reached up, broke the pretzel and handed it to him. Everyone around him broke out laughing, we were all eating pretzels, he just looked at us like, "HUH!" ... DUH!!!

He was invited to a German's house for a Wine and Cheese testing afternoon. Different types of wine and cheeses abound. Came to work on Monday and said, "Now those are MY kind of people!" A couple of months later he decided to host one and invited everyone that was at the original one he had been at. He presented enough wine that people got about ½ a glass each and one block of cheese cut into little cubes. He was so proud of himself on Monday, little did he know what people were saying when he wasn't around. ... DUH!!!

_________
Polterabend is a German wedding custom in which, on the night before the wedding, the guests break porcelain to bring luck to the couple's marriage. The belief in the effectiveness of this custom is expressed by the old adage: "Shards bring luck" (German: Scherben bringen Glück). The expression is derived from a time when the word "shard" referred to the unbroken clay pots of pottery makers, and not just the broken pieces. It was said that a full jar was a lucky thing to have, therefore the expression "shards bring luck".

Interesting day yesterday, tried grinding with crazed lions, but they were all busy. Ended up with Blue Vlads last night. And learned a bit about Sapphire Dragons, nice stuff. Now to see if I can get then to autospawn for me vs outside the corner where I can't get at them.

Someone at MadHouse 0,0 was asking to buy soul stones so I sold the 20 I had at 5m a pop. NICE! Don't know if that was cheap or not but I liked it, 100m is a nice profit.

Gave away 12 of the 13 meteor stones I had to a friend. My norm, I don't sell to friends,

And have started collecting both Soul and Meteor Stones again. Every time I'm checking my inventory, putting The Twins to bed or crafting at The Rock, I'm mining. And I'm getting them often enough to be pleased. Plus since I'm still mining for iron to try my luck at crafting the lvl 150 swords, I get even more. I'm happy.

Was given 4 "rare items", OK, rare for me, last night but won't say what or from whom!
But his initial are Elgur. THANK YOU!

And that's the way it was on Sunday the 21st day of January, 2018.

Sunday. Weekend. Normal.

My preferred spot is along the road, below the tower and to the right. Another popular spot is above the tower and to the right. It is possible to spawn them right at the tower entrance, but I don't like that as you may block the entrance a little more.

You're really reaching here...
That's pretty much before my time too haha

@ MadMikael

Yup, as I said to my wife, "Kiddies day, Saturday and Sunday". Tis, why I left the area.
And I explained the MadM meaning of "kiddies" to her too!

Ahhh will check out that preferred spot to. I've see lots or red there. And yea, at the entrence of Dragon Tower I have seen people there a few time. Makes it hard to get in/out for people, tried it for a little while last night. Not the best - for me anyway.

I'm not reaching, I can still hear him saying that at the end of his shows. And we know about my memory.
You just a young whipper-snapper yet.

--- and I say that with all due respect.

CD was also quoted as saying, "There are some people that are living, breathing, walking, talking proof that there should be retroactive birth control and he's (AB) one of them."
