A fried and I was alternating between a chat room and a Marathon game. We were trying to gather a game on a map that I had made/modified, but everyone just spammed or left. I was at my computer, and occasionally looked at the keyboard or below the monitor.
Eventually, we just started killing each other. It was evidentially taking place in some sort of hostile environment, so I was wearing some kind of heavy-duty mech suit. The suit had a number of weapons attached such as a electric shock, used with the p button, which slowly moved an arm forward and then pumped electricity into the enemy.
With this weapon and my normal ones, I succeeded in killing him once. I then ran out from the tight area we had been in and into the room outside. A boulder that had been bouncing near the exit from the small room finally came to rest. My fried was near it, and I began shooting the boulder. When it exploded, he died.
At the same time, I was surfing the web, looking for pictures, at least while we were in the chat room.
In the chat room, my friend started talking about how much stuff he could have if he got $1,000 a day. I was greatly amazed by these facts, and entered an exclamation mark after which I hit the return key.
I was using the rules command, though, which was responding like the help command on some muds, and instead sent out "rules !". This didn't do much, and I then retyped the !.
(school. is. evil. however, getting up at 5:45 might help solve the problem apparent on the callender.)
