Story

Deleted Writing, Offensive Jokes and Too Little Sleep

12:15 p.m.

I hate deleting things I write. It messes up a lot of things.

I must have written at around 2 a.m. "oh that fellow, it's between him and his G-d if he did "the right thing". Something something, Bentsi deserved the WW2 Italian pizza MRE rations at the bakery".

Jeez.

Terrible.

Hehe

Plus that happened a long time ago. I'd say that the damage was very great and will likely be permanent on their side, more so than on my side.

I am feeling sleepy. I think I didn't sleep properly. I had like 2 or 3 hours.

I feel very tired.

Story

Calling Something Professional, Mature and Moral

12:30 p.m.

Very professional, very mature and very moral

Story

Feeling Better Despite Starvation News and Bitter Memories

12:45 p.m.

How'd this guy survive a direct hit from a metal object? First, no fall damage. Now, no headshot buff or crit.

I think I am starting to feel better now.

I should just get my lunch.

I'm generally trying to be positive.

I think I might remember bad memories like with that son of a pizza. But it's not so much a big deal. I think Hirshon and many of them more than made up for it. Plus, I have dished out some really good pizza for them.

And this was a deep pan dish, best served hot.

Story

Trying to Forget Someone While Thinking About Starving Children

3:30 p.m.

(b)

I feel better.

Jeez. It is awful, this ████████ guy..

I should forget about it. Or try to. Right now, I know, people, 1000s of kids are starving, stunting away to death cause of this dude. I think it's awful.

Story

Describing Top-Down Corruption as Sri Lanka’s Brain Cancer

4:30 p.m.

(b)

The head of state or the boss sets the tone. When the boss is corrupt, he or she says this is the way, he is a girl, and she is a man, and then that's the rule. When a man as ignorant, careless as ████████ is boss, there will be disasters unfolding. The fellow, doesn't understand, running a country's not like running a criminal money laundering operation.

The reason Sri Lanka's corrupt is because of a corrupt ███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

Story

Watching Pirates 3 and Reconsidering Depressed Political Thoughts

5:30 p.m.

I'm just watching Pirates 3.

I think I was a bit depressed today. I wrote some depressed thoughts down. I think they were wrong. I think I am maturing on it.

I do plan things ahead of politics sometimes. Going after █████████████████ for laundering stolen money is useful to me.

I am not happy with what happened with ██████████████████████████████. It's a useful political story. But I do admit it's somewhat exaggerated.

Story

Dhammika Entering the Captain’s Hat Lottery

6:00 p.m.

This is Dhammika!

When the issue of the captain is up for consideration. He also throws his name in the Captain's hat lottery.
