First day at the new job today, standard get to know you procedure occurs. Conversation goes as follows:
Lady: "Who do you go for?"
Me: "Port Adelaide"
Lady: Oh you mean the magpies? Because there's a difference between Port Power and Port Adelaide. Port Power are in the AFL, Port Adelaide are in the SANFL"
Me: "Nah I'm pretty sure you're wrong"
Other lady: "Ok lets stop this before it goes too far"

How to impress new managers 101 right here, everyone. I'm giving me 2 weeks.

Take her in some apricot slices and nursing home recommendations.

That will sort it out.

If it doesn't you shouldn't really worry at her age the Alzheimer's means she will have forgotten by the morning.

Haha she was actually ridiculously nice I just don't think I'm used to an environment (first job in industry I want to be in, I'm used to laborer work at the moment where I can shit talk all day) where I can't talk back to superiors.

You should get the sack when some new sponsors are announced then.

Correcting an ill informed individual is not talking back. Fire up son.

Should have just said 'I get really a get these days sister'

I always think of Port Adelaide supporters as being somewhat more enlightened then everyone else.

dinger, it's civic responsibility to indoctrinate the uneducated masses to our ways... or at least wear a Port Adelaide tie and regularly bring up the round 19 showdown.

Only you could bring out Ween in any possible situation. I actually had a laugh the other day because at work, we have a galaxy tab setup for people to stream music to a TV as a demo. Someone had loaded some Ween onto the playlist. I thought the odds of it being you are like 1/1.

I love that song. Well, I love this song

I could never get into the old Fallouts and Baldurs Gates for some reason (terrible compatibility with high resolution screens?), however I am looking forward to the new old school games on the way including Torment: ToN and Pillars of Eternity.

Did you ever get around to playing New Vegas, or did F3 just turn you off the first person Fallouts?

I played Fallout 3 to the end, and I started playing New Vegas, but it was like 'Meh, I'll get around to finishing this one day.'

The definitive RPG game for me is Deus Ex if you're talking first person. If they updated that with new graphics...I'd be all over that like white on rice.

I didn't like the end of Fallout 3, at least NV has multi endings

Human Revolution is an amazing game, definately recommend it.

Also New Vegas is far better writing wise than F3, reinstall dat.

Agreed..completely emotionless

If she said that she is definitely not your superior.

Haha. I didn't expect any different.

Is there ever going to be a new Fallout game?

 

[Trewth]

Is there ever going to be a new Fallout game?

There were rumours last year but as yet I haven't heard anything substantial. It was going to be based in California from memory.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Is there ever going to be a new Fallout game?

Yes. Rumblings already that are getting stronger. I think Kotaku posted something recently suggesting it's in pre-production but unannounced.

Dark hair, turtle neck, mom jeans?

I've had that exact same conversation with girlfburgers' mum twice.

My boss despises Port Adelaide but at least he understand the whole one club thing.
