Don't worry I pretty much used all mine up.
YKTSFW you finish painting up an icon bearer then you read the rules and see how pointless it is stuck in troops when it'd be more flexible on heralds.
I'm presenting my part of the group presentation about life in the middle ages church. My part of the presentation is about Christian symbols that also played a role in pre-Christian Europe and North Africa. (cross, halo, dove, pentagram, etc) Not hard, its just the introverted and shy Luco does not like standing in front of a class and jabbering on about stuff.
the sinking feeling when I have to leave to go do the presentation and if I don't im going to be late. Let's do this!
I was the same, but my group bailed on the project I had to work on. So a few weeks of me walking around the four computers we had to work on (project was a simulated internet) got classmates asking me for help now and then. Apparently I have decent leadership skills which developed from this, at least according to the teacher, but I still dislike presentations. I find it's slightly easier if you research the subject then just give yourself points rather than writing out the entire thing and memorising it. You'd be able to answer questions and it feels more involved as you're not talking at them, but to them in a way. But, it's too late for helping with it.
When your typical day at work started with a 30 minute preparation time to deliver 7.5 hours worth of presentations on material you may or may not have been briefed on previously.
right now I have a group one for Uni. We are doing the English Civil Wars and I have to stand up and argue the case for religeon.
so i got me a king james bible, a black cloak and some knowledge of the divine right of kings and i'm gonna preach the bejeezus out of the perliment group.

Good luck.
Thanks, that's one of the reasons why I hate group work. The one I did prior to this I did the entire thing by myself and presented it by myself. I also got a 400% on it because my partners never bothered coming to class and I took their points.
I survived!
The sinking feeling when on the way to the presentation your gut tells you to stop what you're doing and find a bathroom. NOW.

The sinking feeling you get just thinking about having to do this once, much less on a day to day basis.
The sinking feeling when you manage to utterly fill your agenda on the first day you get it.
The sinking feeling when you realize how far behind you are.

Ouch. I hate that feeling. This qualifies as the... you know the stab in the heart feeling when...

YKTSFW That girl who's pretty awesome, who thinks you're pretty awesome. Gets hit on by your friend, who's aparently in love with her...
While she is actually my well not so secret girlfriend.
When you have an essay due next week and your lecturer hasn't covered anything that's meant to be in it.
When you end up feeling vaguely lonely, but hate crowds and noise, and so don't go out to the party you got invited to.
Anyway, if this was just a random thing by your friend, you could try just letting it blow over, or try hook him up with someone else. Otherwise you could tell him, but I guess that depends on why your relationship is secret in the first place.
When for some reason all the text on dakka disappears but you navigate through it because you know where all the buttons are
When you realise this means you spend WAY too much time on here.
YKTSF when you upset your aunt because you don't want her to come to your birthday dinner, because she (and her annoying daughter) always ruin family functions :/
YKTSF when you invite them anyway, and now they're going to ruin your dinner with their bitching and whining about nonsense :/
May look rather plain, but I assure you, it lives up to it's name. It is THE pack. My dad has one, and every time I have the honor of wearing it, I feel like a tank.

YKTSFW you're putting the final touches on the customised, carefully painted biker model you've been working on for ages...

Luckily only the melee weapon snapped off (which it does a lot anyway, argh) and the bike came off the base, but no noticeable damage to the paint job. So, fairly easily fixed.

The sinking feeling when the Wall of Flesh kills you and your friend yet again so you set off on a potion gathering expedition that leads to the sinking feeling you get when you realize its 5:30 in the morning and you haven't gotten an ounce of sleep.

This, except mini-mods only post in blue when they are using their power. BTW, a mini mod is someone who has unofficial powers to moderate only a single thread. Me being an example, and I can do no more than warn and report.
...When you find out that you have to wake up at 4 for two days in a row because the airsoft tourney is TWO days long! Yay to tourney, but to early wakeup.
YKTSF when a duo of 12 year olds follow you and your friends calling you all "bundles of sticks" and making rude gestures.it is sad when people are so unimaginative that they resort to that word, isn't it?
Can it with the spam or the actual mods will shut down the thread. DeadlySquirrel and TheRobotLol post in white please, unless it;s appropriate not to.
When you can't find a club that plays 70's rock music rather than all this "Dubstep" nonsense. I don't mind a bit of it, but I can't stand a whole evening of all the music sounding the same.
Actually, I would agree with BrotherHaraldus. I find myself checking the thread to see if I need to intervene as mini mod, rather than to post sinking feelings. That in itself is a sinking feeling, ironically.
Instructions are back on page 21 I think. Basically it's just add a link to your signature after telling Killy then not spamming the thread into the ground.
When you go back to some CSMs that you painted last year and were really pleased with to wash them, only to realise what an awful job you did compared to your current standard and decide to repaint them all.
You know that RISING feeling when you get the best backpack on the market, a Molle II Waist Pack to attach to the bottom of it, and two coyote sustainment pouches to go on the sides of it, and you have close to 6000 cubic inches of space.
You know that SINKING feeling when you finish buying everything you want, but then you find a whole bunch of things that could possible be useful that you want to buy
I want a machete with a molle scabbard, a camelback 100 oz bladder, a 'rite in the rain' notepad and pen and a gore tex laptop case. Then my pack will be absolutely complete, I suppose.
YKTSFW redsatan accuses me and a few others of ruining the thread cos he hates me and just hasn't found a legitimate reason to ban me yet.
YKTSFW this post may be enough to ban me.

YKTSFW you don't know anyone your age who listens to the same music as you
I would like to note I mean the cartoon character and not the forum poster, I know nothing of the political savvy of the forum poster, just making sure everyone knows that

It's a dakka meme started by mr purplefood who was asking something about them, but couldn't be bothered to type it out so he copy/pasted it from the forgeworld site, which is in capitals, so the question was something like "the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT seems quite good" or whatever, and now dakkanaughts always type it like that, or so the legends state... it's a forgeworld model: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/CRASSUS-ARMOURED-ASSAULT-TRANSPORT.html

it's so irritating, but then we have enough idiots running around shooting people with guns as it is, making it hard for the rest of them, you can't even get an airsoft gun without having to attend 3 events in a time period of more than 2 months.
Edit
People over the age of 18 may purchase and own low-powered air rifles and air pistols, and the ammunition for them, and use them, but only where they have specific permission to shoot.
straight from the U.K gun law.

But I must disagree on the "better" food; fish is quite good, yeah, and elk and reindeer taste very nice as well (its good to know someone with a hunting liscence ), but anything else is either extremely expensive or not very tasty. But maybe thats just Northern Norway..... everything has to traves several tousand km to get there, so every piece of vegetable is tiny, rotten and costs 4 Euro.....
