I just want to let everyone know I'm happy they're safe today.

So I thought maybe we could all share something that has made us happy today. (:

I just downloaded Steam for the first time today, because Indie Game The Movie is $4.99, and I really want to listen to the Super Meat Boy commentary.

What has the lovely GB community been up to today? I'm sincerely happy that you're all well & safe. Share with me what has made you smile today.

It'd be nice if everyone would keep it appropriate please & thank you.

-and may the force be with you.

No man can be that happy. Even Jesus wasn't that happy.

Good lookin' out.

What've you been up to buddy? Anything make you smile today?

I'm happy today because I started watching Downton Abbey and I like it a lot more than I thought I would.

That's awesome Soapy. What's Downtown Abbey about? I'm unfamiliar.

Hahaha, was that today? or just in general? Because now I want to go cut up some construction paper & make little South Park stylized superheroes. (:

Today I did nothing. And it makes me sad. But your post made me smile, so now it's cool.

Thanks, duder.

Played some Binary Domain, it's fucking awesome.

I went to the doctor today, got blood drawn, and received some allergy medicine which will hopefully help. heh. An exciting day indeed. Been able to watch some Major League Gaming StarCraft II Spring Arena today, as well. That has been fun.

Been really interested today by all of the discussion regarding the shooting. In light of it, I hope to get to go to see "The Dark Knight Rises" sometime in the next week. I've been looking forward to it, and it is my personal belief that violence and extremism should never dictate your life. Madmen won't run our lives or limit our happiness.

Glad you're safe, too, duder. You have a good week.

@jNerd: See, this man knows his drugs!

That makes me feel like a good duder, thanks Dixego. Do you have any plans for the rest of the day? You could get your game on!

I have a rental pass, would you recommend Binary Domain? I would only play the single-player.

Oh stop it, doesn't have to be medical to make you happy as shit.

@jNerd: The single player is the meat and bones of this game, I highly recommend it.

@jNerd: I'm probably gonna lurk the GiantBomb forums for the rest of the night. But I'm OK with that.

I went to the batting cages with a few friends today, and there was a women softball team there practicing.

I mowed the lawn for my great grandmother this morning, watched Pulp Fiction with my brother, ate pizza, got on forums, played Torchlight, now I'm back on forums, and now I've got a good mind to leave them again and finish off Doom 3.

So, yeah, not really a bad day. My college called and e-mailed me to kindly tell me that I need to give them some money when they've thus far not even so much as warned me that it's past due, which kind of pissed me off but kind of is my own fault because I knew the due date for next semester's fees were coming up anyway; this just brings it to the forefront of my mind.

Here's a good question: Why is it that we can list all of the positive things we've done today in one sentence but feel like taking up the same space to tell only one negative thing?

Someone I work with who I kind of was friends with quit yesterday, and I was bummed out.

But then I stole commandeered her computer, and went from a shitty Windows XP 'puter that hasn't been updated since around 2002, to a relatively decent system with Windows 7. It's like I went into the future! 2010! I told the computer to do things. AND THEN IT DID THEM.

I WAS SO HAPPY.

@FilipHolm: True, but medical makes you more happy.

We as the human race can only counteract extreme violence with extreme kindness & concern for one another. (:

I really want to go see TDKR too, I Googled which theaters can properly show it, there are only two in my state. lol

What do you have allergies too? My gf has SUPER allergies. I set her pills out for her everyday. (:

& on a smaller note: you're braver then I good sir. I've never had blood drawn. I hope to overcome my fear & donate sometime soon.

I always imagined jesus as somewhat depressed at the sad state of humanity but I guess I'm just a downer sort of person

Agreed. Fire only adds to fire, but attempting to defuse fire can make progress.

I'm sure it'll be fine at whatever theater you see it. Should be a big screen though. ;)

I just have seasonal allergies, and they were checking on if anything else might be wrong(been having a consistent headache following my surgery three weeks ago). Hopefully it's just some allergies or poor sleep. Seems like that's likely.

You should donate your blood! Heck, volunteer to be a bone marrow donor, too! It's cool. I've given as a volunteer and sometimes just as part of them doing tests. It's not too bad. It can really help people out; so, check it out. :)

Hahaha, I thought you said BATTLING cages. I was definitely excited for you to elaborate! :P

It's the simple things in life... (: lol

I just woke up a couple of hours ago (trying to undo the sleep schedule screwup from my last bout of insomnia), but spending time with my rats always makes me happy, so tonight is off to a good start.

@jNerd: How could I not post, when you're such a nice guy!

I bought some water and milk. I was out of toasted honey oat cereal. I bought two boxes, and had two big bowls, and chugged the honey-sweet milk afterwards. That made my day.

Awwwwwwww........ (: I have a great group of friends from GiantBomb on Google+. We have a great chatroom (Messenger/Huddle) called Duder Island.

I feel like I enjoy my time with them so much, we've become such good friends, I forget to come to the forums sometimes.

That's great, at least you have nice pets, what are there names? I've never had rats, when I was younger I had a mischievous hamster. lol

On-topic though, my day has been spent cleaning on-and-off while blasting music. It's meh.

@jNerd: No problem man, just make sure to play at least the first hour to get the story really going.

I'll post what made me actually happy today. This mourning I bought the game syndicate, and I've been having fun playing it. Its like dues ex meets mirrors edge. Its pretty much corporate thuggin....

My black heart seethes in bearing witness to this merriment. I hiss in response.

This also made me smile. I hope everyone is having a nice day too. I went to the doctor today and enjoyed rain that gave a break from the heat.

Today I found out that I'm eligible for a grant. "Free" money is something to be happy about.

Because we're so happy all the time, we stop appreciating how great things truly are, so we notice the unbalance more then just appreciating how great life usually is.

It always makes me feel great to help out my Grandma. (: I never finished Doom 3 - I had a hard time finding all the PDAs.@zombiebigfoot said:

It always feels good once you're finished cleaning, you get to sit back & admire all your hard work.

Is the music keeping you happy? (:

Mavis and Prudence. (named after Mavis Beacon, because lol, and "Dear Prudence", because we always have to coax her to leave the cage, haha) I'm a first-time rat owner, but I'm hooked. :D
