I Blame My Public School Education

Postby Irock » Wed Jul 25, 2007 5:14 pm

Statetris.
It took me 28 minutes and 13 seconds the first time through, partly because I didn't realize I could rotate the states until I saw what I knew was Cali, only sideways...

ugh, I've given up after 1.5 minutes...I can't seem to get the states to stick in their spots.

10 minutes 19 seconds. that was pretty cool, some of the states i expected to be in the middle somewhere were on the east coast which threw me out a bit

I did the hard mode in around 8:30, but only because I couldn't seem to get rhode island in the right way.

yeah, rhode island screwed me too -- it's not like i can see the damn thing! i just let it fall over and over again until they gave it to me the "right" way. just over 8 minutes. damn geography.

The stupid angles suck. You think your going straight into the spot and *boing* you get knocked off to try again.

Still, 8:17. I think I can do better.

Some girl near me goes, "What is that SOUND? It sounds like metal hitting something! I swear, it just stopped."

It was stupid KANSAS, ok? How do I know how far over to put it? It's just a big rectangle!!!

20 minutes and change.

Fuck all your goddamned rectangular states, okay? Shit. Fuck.

And fuck Michigan, too. I didn't have any trouble recognizing it, just, you know, fuckin' Michigan. Think they're so cool 'cause they can make a map of their state with their hands. Fuck.
