I sat there and waited. And waited. And waited. The cashier was just wandering around doing absolutely nothing, and ignoring his 5 customers completely. Finally, he realizes <i>Oh, I have people who have been waiting in line for freakin' forever!"</i> so he starts ringing up the first guy's purchase. The guy only had one item, but he managed to stretch that out into taking about 2 minutes. How did he do this? Well, in the middle of ringing up the first guy's purchase, this girl grabs a cup of coffee and starts chatting with him. When he finally finished ringing up the first guy's purchase, what does he do? He doesn't ring up the second guy, no! <i>He rings up the girl's purchase!</i> She'd just got there, while 5 other people had been waiting for <i>ten freakin minutes</i>. So he's hitting on this girl, ringing up her purchase early hoping to somehow increase the possibility of a date, which was already non-existant, due to him being at lease 50 pounds overweight.

And some jackass cut my jacket with scissors. It wasn't torn, it was cut. Perfect lines, the length of the lines are exactly the same, and the remains of a crease where it was pinched together to cut it. It's a 150$USD jacket, and some jackass decides to ruin it by having a little fun with scissors. Some people are friken <b>bastards</b>!

A team effort, out of 2800 lines of code, 2000 were mine. We ran it in class and about 30 people joined and were playing. Its utterly different if you have programmed it from the ground up yourself, utterly different from Gamemaker, because Gamemaker has a lot of prewritten stuff. It is an awesome feeling.

First off we have a week break, though, so I'm going to be getting heavily into random movies over the next week. There is no way to escape it, as buying a 300$USD round ticket to Texas and back is out of my budget range.
