How should I celebrate my birthday?

connorkimbro · December 5, 2003, 20:18

Since i'm over in Korea, it has been my birthday for about 9 hours now. I am 25 years old today.

I don't already have plans made. . . last year I had a big party but this year I didn't feel like planning one. I've got lots of options, so which of these do you think I should do? Or, feel free to suggest your own.

1. Do Nothing (this is what I'm doing right now)
2. Get really really drunk tonight.
3. Go out to eat at a nice restaurant
4. Go try to get laid.
5. Play computer games all day long
6. Post on Apolyton all day long
7. Go shopping and buy myself some presents

Feel free to suggest more than one . . . and help me out with some more ideas too!

connorkimbro · December 5, 2003, 20:23

Life is more interesting when you have misplaced priorities.

Pekka · December 5, 2003, 21:01

Get wasted, get layed, get in trouble. In this order.

Shogun Gunner · December 5, 2003, 21:06

You are already doing #6 and you've done a lot of #5.... I would recommend:

3, then
2, then
4

Good luck.

Yes, it would be interesting, but not very happy as of next monday (not this coming monday, but the 15th) when I'm supposed to be flying home for the holidays.

5 and 6

Pekka · December 5, 2003, 22:02

Get a 'Pekka RUuuuuuuuuuuuulz!' tattoo. Spelled like that.

connorkimbro · December 5, 2003, 22:02

5 and 6 seem to be mutually exclusive, don't you think?

Kuciwalker · December 5, 2003, 22:03

why do you think alt-tab was invented?

Whaleboy · December 5, 2003, 22:15

I second Pekka at everything he has said thus far, with the addition of a healthy dose of drugs!

Kuciwalker · December 5, 2003, 22:18

#8 ignore elijah's advice

Pekka · December 5, 2003, 22:19

Whaleboy, I'm glad you're with me on this one. I second the drugs too.

Also, you could think about hitting your commanding officer.

My CO is a pretty nice guy actually, I wouldn't want to hit him.

Now my XO, on the other hand, is a prime candidate for getting hit. Repeatedly. With my crotch. woohoo, she's a HOTTIE.

Maybe a she's little too young for me, (haha!) but still hot.

I reckon you should go eat at a nice restaraunt, then go out and get totally blitzed while trying to get laid, then don't go to bed and play computer games till about mid-day, then go shopping, come home, have a power nap till about 6 p.m. your time, then go out again. I mean, its your birthday for gods sake, so enjoy it!

My Uncle was in the Korean War, and since I also served in Korea (late '80's), why I used to tell him that whereas he was busy dodging snipers and Chinese Regulars during his tour, why I was busy dodging ghonorheah and syphilus during my tour. While both of us servived our tours relatively intact (pun intended!), why I would say that since AIDS is now a real player in the Korean Peninsula, why going out and having a nice Korean meal is your best option, IMO. Regardless, enjoy your birthday, and come back to us safe, Soldier.

Among the whores, yeah. Probably a majority of upstanding, high-class, respectable women in Korea are virgins, from what I gather, so unless they're the sort of virgins that shoot up with dirty needles, they probably don't have AIDS. And the ones that aren't virgins still probably don't sleep around a great deal. And THOSE are the kinds of Korean girls that I talk to. . . I don't tend to waste my time with the bar sluts that hang around post.

Why, thank you very much.

Out of all these other pinheads, you're the first to say something like "happy birthday" lol

1.

Sit in blessed silence and contemplate life.

Stuie · December 5, 2003, 23:49

#4 with your XO.

Or don't they allow that kind of thing....

connorkimbro · December 6, 2003, 00:33

no, they don't really look too kindly on that sort of thing.

Ben Kenobi · December 6, 2003, 01:17

Try to do both 4&6 together.

Enjoy your b-day Connor.

Uncle Sparky · December 6, 2003, 05:37

I didn't see anything specifically relating to sheep mentioned in your "to do" list, although all of the above might involve sheep if you are particularly peculiar.

Have a Happy B'day (or considering time zones) hope you had a good one !

connorkimbro · December 6, 2003, 09:54

thank you, thank you. I still have an hour left in my time zone

Az · December 6, 2003, 13:16

Happy yesterday.

Boris Godunov · December 6, 2003, 14:29

Just as long as you're not sneaking into women's restrooms to take peeks, anything is fine.
