Thread: this doesnt really have anything to do with gaming but i thought id share it with you

    Default this doesnt really have anything to do with gaming but i thought id share it with you

    hey guys, i dont know if you will be interedted in this but i just thought id share it with the fine members here that i have chatted with and joked around with.

    about a month ago i asked my girlfriend of 2 1/2 years to marry me, you may remember that ive talked about her before, i asked that question about her buying me a game cube for my birthday when i bought one that same day....and so on, you guys gave me some great advice with that problem. thanks again.

    i spent a big chunk of my savings on the ring. (2 days earlier i had been held up at gunpoint at work, i quit the next week)
    so my savings were a bit low, her parents said that theyd pay for everything, theyre great. we found a place in hamilton ontario, canada, that is perfect. it is an old trainstation that has been converted into a hall for things like weddings and....movies.

    the trainstation that im getting married in was featured in a movie in 2000 that was huge. it was the XMEN movie.
    they shot it in burlington (my home town) and hamilton. the station was used in the scene where magneto took rogue from wolverine and confronted the cops outside, the station still looks the same. i thought that itd be cool to get married there and my fiance agreed and there we are. something to tell the grandkids, eh. what do you think about it?

    Congratulations. You've made yourself a life amidst the leechers, nerds, coolios and plain off people of EP. That's great. I'm real proud of you. (sarcasm = off)

    its a great story to tell people, they usually say
    "xmen, thats cool, does it still have the hole in the roof where cyclops blasted it, hee hee" or something to that effect, lol.

    I wouldn't imagine that would be too fascinating for your grand kids to hear, but hey whatever makes you happy.

    C'mon guy, don't be an asshole. It may not be interesting to you, but that's you. To Matrix Holder this is a big deal, and I think that's great. I think that'll be a great story to pass on to his grandchildren, and it'll be but one of many that he'll accumulate over the years. Just cram it guy.
