  • My X-Mas story

    This Christmas was an interesting one. First off, it was Christmas eve, and my dad went to get us our favorite food, crab, so we could have it for X-Mas Eve dinner. He went to the store and they were out! But a kind employee gave my dad his crab that he had reserved for his family. He insisted that my dad take it. Then I woke up X-Mas morning, expecting to get what I'd been waiting for forever, Age of Mythology. My brother always gets me what I want the most, and he knew how bad I needed the game. So I opened all of my presents, but no Age of Mythology! I was so sad. So we're downstairs playing NBA Live 2003 for PC, the gift I gave to him, and he goes, go get me some bottled water from the fridge. So I opened the fridge, and there it was! It was the greatest moment of any X-Mas yet! So I install the game and go to play. I watch the cinematics, and then the error message: Initialization Failed. I called tech support, and they said I need a new video adapter. It's just outrageous.
    "The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau

      Maybe the problem was that the game was in the fridge .

        I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

          I got AoM too.

          Ok, I actually didn't, my cousin did. But then I installed it on my PC anyway. Hooray for AoM.

                That story would have been so much more touching if it were one long run-on sentence.
