Did you know there's a 'good' emoticon, but not a 'bad' one? And on this image set, the good one has a little halo - as if it indicated moral or spiritual goodness. The closest they probably have, then, is 'naughty' which really has kind of a different connotation. They also have flirty, horny, and hot, but hot really just seems to indicate that one's temperature is too high.
I think my favorite is probably horny, because it gets tiny little horns. Like, in addition to being sexually aroused, the icon has also genetically mutated. Let this be a warning to you all.
Right now, I'm feeling tired and hungry, but I'm chiefly feeling pretty mellow on account of nothing happening. I don't hear any of the prelude to terror that is represented by howling winds tonight, so with any luck I'll just end up thinking about political blogs and gaming all night.

drbuzzkillsuggested that he might brandish a box of mystery Magic cards at me some time in the near future, which is really kind of an intriguing thought. During high school, I was nearly obsessive in my playing. Partially because, I think, that I didn't have a whole lot else to do and partially because most of my friends played. Much like sitting around the television brandishing controllers and playing Smash Bros. now, our go-to activity was reliably Magic: the Gathering. By the end of my high school tenure, I had started to frequently attend larger events and tournaments with the hope of qualifiying for some large and difficult prize, but I pretty much had to stop when I went to Carbondale on account of a non-existant scene there at the time. Even though I was robbed significantly later, truthfully, I wasn't playing a lot by that time, and wasn't really ever able to justify restarting my collection. My binders and decks mostly just sat on my shelf gathering dust for a few years now.
I've recently had a few brief aquaintences invite me to gaming sessions I haven't been able to make, had my opinion solicited for deck construction, and asked for rules clairificationss though, so I'm wondering if something isn't up. I think fondly of my Magic playing days even while I'm not fond of a lot of my high school era, but it'd take a lot to get me seriously playing again. But I might resume some casual play if circumstances made it easy. Strange how that works. I haven't thought of it in quite a while.

I agree. Casual is the way to go.

About the only thing the two have in common are basic lands. >_> Which didn't make me popular when I took my rules-lawyer-y self to casual play days over at the local community college, and less popular still since one of my decks relied on obscure timing tricks to clinch victory.
