  Remembering those who died in service maybe…

  “The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month” is when WW1 ended and is held as Remembrance Day across Europe .

    And Canada. I don’t remember it specifically but I am certain I was sitting in my school gym for a Remembrance Day assembly.

      What they don’t teach in school, is that our country is known for being brutal. We rarely took POWs, and even killing them after they surrender.

      If you don’t like reading, here is a video explaining how brutal we were in both great wars.

    No way! It was actually the same with me on 12/12/12 12:12:12. I spent the better part of that day trying to explain to my high school class chat why it is a big deal (it is the last one like that until 2100, with two digits being the same). Nobody was in any way as thrilled about it as i was. I sat on the couch in the living room when the 12th second struck. Won’t be forgetting that anytime soon…

        Did you account for timezones? First fights started at 3:40 a.m. Kyiv time.

  Probably heading to the city centre to pick up a copy of Skyrim for Xbox 360.

  I got home, did my NaNoWriMo writing sprint, and then fired up Skyrim and played like 12 hours straight.

  Sitting at home, playing Skyrim.

    Blood on the Ice was possibly the most bug-filled quest I’ve ever encountered!

    • WALLACE@feddit.uk ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I replayed that game so many times and I think that mission only played through properly once

  Yes. Playing Skyrim.

  Most likely sleeping. I worked a night shift at the time. I definitely remember where I was at midnight the night before, though: picking up Skyrim at Gamestop to take home for my wife to play (I went in to work late to get it).

  Interestingly enough, I’m 80% sure, because it was a weekday, and I sat in the exact same spot for all of high school. The 20% are for the possibility I was sick, in the bathroom, or had a special class I had to leave our classroom for.

  On a military base in Afghanistan, ironically enough.
