Well, playing EU2 would require the ability to use the computer, which my dad is sadly lacking 
However, the wine would go over very well
Rather eerily, you're parents are almost (read: exactly) the same as mine. Mother: mean, lack of technical skills. Father, drinks even more than I do (and I reckon I have a problem), makes friends absurdly easily, has technical skills, but doesn't use them, doesn't play games except under dire circumstances.
Maybe we're related
Anyway, back to the original reason for posting. As you've probably gathered, I was at a festival this weekend, and the first night, a meeting was arranged from some folks from another
forum. It being the type of festival that it was, nobody could be arsed to organise anything apart from a place and a time (and even that was last minute). Which turned out to be a bit of bad idea.
For a start, few people turned up and what was worse, was that we had no idea who was who. In this case, stickers would have been a godsend. What with battling many thousands of other people using the same area as a meeting point, it was hard to tell. I only found everyone by chance. So far, so good.
With no topics, little outside the obvious in common, there was little to talk about (though I had a great discussion about Unreal Tournament with one bloke) and quite a few got vevvy, vevvy bored. The rest were too drunk or too high to notice.
THe meeting disbanded about 3 hours later through various fabricated reasons
Peeps, we should learn from this:
Don't be pseudo-anarchists. ORGANISE.
Talk (though I don't think this will be a problem)
Need a method of I.D. so that shy people like me can pick out folks
Need muchos beer
If I think of anymore I'll post them.
