Strangely dressed? That can't be right. What was I wearing that day anyways? Well I had no idea that you thought that I was some sort of evil nerd spirit posing as a human; Like some sort of vampire that doesn't take your blood, but your dignity. That certainly was enlightening.
About Marburg, the place where MONSANTO KILLS, I propably should tell you guys about the poisonously spiced up sausages. When we, Azagal, Joonas, Dagoth and I, were walking around town looking for a place to eat, I think it was Azagal who kept bugging us about what we'd like to eat. For some strange reason I was thinking about Indian food at the time and how I had never had a curry that was spicy, so I said that I'd like some spicy food. It was soon that Azagal pointed at a little shop on the corner of some building that specialized in spicy hot dogs and turkish sausages. We went inside and told the little Turkish man to give us the spiciest dish he had. I had to sign a contract saying that I was informed of the possible side effects of eating food this spicy and that I imbibe it out of my own consent. After that formality I was presented with a small box thing full of cut up sausages in a red sauce, sprinkled with god knows what powder. Azagal was all like: "This is going to be good. I'll take like a before and after picture!" Whilst Joonas took a more conservative position of: "He's going to die, because he's stupid. If he needs to go to the hospital, we're leaving him."
The first bite wasn't that bad. It was just sorta drenched in sauce. A few after that, it became kinda painful. I withdrew without even eating half of the portion. According to Azagal, at first I was white as usual, but then I turned bright red, then I turned blue and when I quit I slowly got grey. Apparently it was funny looking and it's a shame that there aren't any pictures of the after effects. He then kept apologising the rest of the evening, saying it was basically like him paying me to punch myself in the face. He even had words of wisdom to share. He told me that the level of spicyness in that dish didn't actually have any culinary value and that it's just there for guys who want to act tough in front of their friends or something. I shall take this to heart!

Here's my second attempt hoping it'll go better than the last .
So well all was planned to start on the 4th. On the 2nd I decided to call everyone to find out what the status of everyone was and well I couldn't reach Joonas due to a swedish voice (pretty sure it was swedish) was persistantly telling me that there is no reception. Well then I looked on msn and truely enough I found "Joonas" but when I opened the message box I found a creepy, depressing doll thing, with no happy colours or anything and well while it wasn't impossible for that to be a Joonas avatar this was much more in line with our friend Dagoth. Not to mention that Joonas prefers creepy murderous little girls...
Anyways I was “oh it’s you” and told him I needed to talk to Joonas (didn’t have Keksis number T_T) and he cheerily (WEIRD RIGHT?!) informed me that he had just spoken with him “recently”.” Well what’s recently? tell me man I want to know where he is” “Well… like 5 hours ago”
T_T.
“And he said he’d be arriving on the 3rd” “He what?! He was supposed to arrive on the 4th in the evening” “Yeah well he told me he’d be arriving on the 3rd in the early morning hours” “WHY DOESN’T ANYONE TELL ME THAT?!” remember I’m half german ergo I organize ****. A lot. I had a lot of plans and things to do before the crew arrived but well not like we can’t improvise. Eitherway turned out car broke down and Dagoth arrived at around 11:30 in Bonn lol. What made me a very sad panda is that I’ve been promising Dagoth delicious for DAYS and I had made my chili con carne (which was perfect if I may say so myself it was really good) and well it’s called CHILI con carne for a reason… but you know being the good host that I am I made the chili just an aftertaste that just supplemented the overall full taste of the beans etc. and I was so happy with it. And well… he eats it and is all like “oh yeah it’s good” ^^ “but if it’d be any spicier I would die.” T_T_T_T_T_T_T_T_T.
Well I blame his feminine tastebuds. I swear it wasn’t spicy AT ALL. You could taste the chilli in the end but it didn’t burn or anything it wasn’t overpowering it was perfect. God not even 10 minutes in my home and he already plunges a spear into my pride. In all fairness though he was trying very very hard to make me understand that it was still tasty. And well considering that I’ve grown up with a variety of spicy food perhaps my tolerance is higher (more on that later lol).
Well then we talked a little I was offering various beverages but he isn’t much of a drinker so we just sat in my living room for a few hours talking about HC (mostly listing the innumerable amount of our favorite things about Corribus) and then went to bed. We talked with our finish friends stranded in somewhere and when I asked them when they’d arrive tomorrow (again so I can PLAN the day until they arrive I take hosting guests very serious. IM HALF GERMAN DON’T LOO AT ME LIKE THAT) I got a sms just with one word “sometime”. HAahaha…. T_T. Well no big deal we got some good sleep and went to buy breakfast and when Joonas and keksi arrived we were just about to start a LotR boardgame.
Heehe when I found their car they were in the wrong Teutonenstraße. Due to some retarded planning the street isn’t “contionous”? It stops right in the middle and you have to get in on the other side so I got in the car both of the fins sitting in the front we said hi and everything but you know we were sitting and I couldn’t hug anyone so it was no real hello. Then after some guidance provided by me we got to my home and got out of the car and could finally say hello for real. First I thought Joonas was either surprised at what I looked like and confused (lol as if) or he was tired or just not pumped but well eventually found out that that’s just his modus operandi lol. But I hugged him and he totally hugged me back and keksi was slightly more chipper but thankfully hugged me with less bone crunching enthusiasm. Well we got them into my home and I started making a plentiful breakfast for everyone. Dagoth mentioned that there was a slight lull in communication when they first arrived but I really didn’t feel anything of the sort. Maybe it was during the 3 minutes I was in the kitchen? Quite the opposite if you ask me… what I found truly amazing was that it just clicked when we sat down to talk and eat. There were no akward silences or forced discussions just a lot of laughter and good conversation. People I’ve never seen before (well except for Dagoth for a few hours) and I felt no restrictions. Obviously they weren’t complete strangers to me especially Dagoth and Joonas since we’ve talked quite a bit over msn (well not as much with Dagoth when I talked with him it was almost never just idle conversation about trivial things but somehow we’d always arrive at something more or less important that to an extend gives you the measure of a man) but usually (well atleast with me) I tend to try to first get a feel of a person before I decide how I behave but with the 3 of them there was no “get to know each other” part I just went on and on and it worked.
We did a lot of great stuff on our trip but us 4 sitting on that balcony together talking about all sorts of things (HC at first since some believed that we needed the common ground to start out I think. Not that it’s a bad thing though there are a lot of interesting things to talk about like for example Corribus and his stance on Mankinis (THAT’S AN ACTUAL WORD NOW WTF?!)) but one of the things that I found most impressive was just that breakfast with its perfectly comfortable atmosphere and us really meeting for the first time.
Quote:
I was pretty shy of topics at the start, (except for the usual, boring and uninspired "So how was your trip?") and I vaguely remember that it lasted for a few hours, though maybe it's me being shy and awkward. Joonas didn't really care and Azagal, being the social animal that he is, was above that sort of thing.
Funny that you’d see it that way… I didn’t get that impression from you at all and most certainly not “for a couple of hours”! Well maybe it was because I did a lot of talking in the beginning  but really… Joonas was there sharing manly points of view and laughed which sounded a bit like tectonic plates colliding and you and keksi shared your thoughts on the matter we were discussion… while you perhaps weren’t “leading” the conversations that doesn’t imply that they were akward or that you were shy. Just say I was a selfindulgant incessant talker . No idea where you got that impression from Dagoth I think our meeting was smoother than a freshly waxed….. Alcis old hairstyle.
Well then after more refreshments and conquering Mordor and sacrificing ourselves in the process we went on the road to Switzerland. And like the guys already said the thing of the trip was that there was no accommodation available anymore cause some old people were having the boring version of a tour de france for forgotten villages in that part of germany at the time… well we slept in the car. But that doesn’t give that experience nearly enough credit. It doesn’t sound like a big deal but 4 guys in a small car after spending hours searching for a place to stay… wasn’t pretty lol.
1st Joonas informs us that his car has a motion sensor so we were to sleep absolutely motionless or the thing would go off and wake us and the neighbourhood (we were illegally ninjaing the parking space of a hotel where had tried to get a room lol) and that would have been a problem.
2nd ly it was getting warm quickly in that car lol and it was raining like a **** on and off so opening the windows was a pain cause we had to close them for sometime sometimes and during that time the air in the car would become a sticky mass with an average temperature of 129408352923475829047 °C but whatever WE GOT THIS. NOT A PROBLEM FOR OUR GLORIOUS ENTOURAGE.
And then the best part started… it was around 12am when we started to try and sleep and it was kinda akward (atleast for me) since we were sitting there and everyone knew the others were awake and not sleepy but we were just like yeah **** it sleep now. And I was trying so hard to sleep lol. It’s not that Joonas seat was uncomfortable or that I couldn’t handle the heat it’s just that everytime I was close to getting sleepy something happened.
Dagoth would exit the car silently ruining his efforts when he apologized to everyone for the noise he was maing, then there would be a bathtub draining in the backseat while a Gorilla was trying to strangle a kraken which turned out to be just Keksimaton drinking from a bottle (seriously you wouldn’t believe the sound the guy makes lolwtfbbq ^^?), then there would be some drunk snows singing happy birthday in a very poor un-sleep inducing way, then there’d be a cat getting mauled somewhere, then Dagoth would RETURN from his little walk in the park this time entering the car silently but ruining it AGAIN when he loudly thanked Joonas for opening the windows since due to the rain the temperature (or more like the quality of the air lol) becoming anything but tolerable and last but not least there was the burglar alarm light that blinked every few seconds and shone with an intensely bright blue light. In the end I just threw my jacket over it (placed it there very very stealthily since the alarm was obviously still on lol) and then after a lot of trying to find a comfortable pose I finally feel asleep and probably got like 2-3 hours or so of sleep. When we got we obviously weren’t in the best of moods but we made our way to the “Rheinfall” (which sound exactly like “Reinfall” in german which means “big flop” thankfully I was the only one aware of the retarded name lol) and things got better with Joonas…uhm…”unique” sense of music.
Being in Switzerland was great and I really loved the Rheinfall it was quite beautiful but lol the others didn’t really share my enthusiasm that much but I blame the carnight. They didn’t even want to take a picture with the damn thing! I had to force them! Then our breakfast hunt began… well don’t try to get breakfast in Switzerland on a Sunday. Just don’t lol.
Well let me skip ahead a little since the others already said everything there is to be said about being in München (and yeah I feel asleep during Alien xD the lack of sleep from the car caught up with me) and let’s fast forward to our little hiking trip. It was so great I only noticed how much I missed hiking after being at the top of a mountain again.
The hike was also interesting from a people point of view… it was raining and it was cold and I had the wrong shoes and a few sections were like walking on soap for me (mostly the bare rock part) but if Joonas climbs I can’t chicken out!! There was a little mountain on the mountain so to speak and we got up there Joonas first obviously followed by me and we were on that little fleck of rock surrounded by clouds (you couldn’t see further than ~10m) and that’s where I saw Joonas happy for the first time. Atleast he looked like that to me. Now don’t get me wrong obviously we’re exaggerating his manly demeanor a bit and it’s fun and all but it’s safe to say that he is a rather “stoic” man he cares about very little it would seem and is very very pragmatic. He laughs a lot and is a funny guy but he only ever seems content with things not happy. But seeing him sitting there (alone for a while since it took me longer with my ****ing street shoes to get up the very slippery slope lol) on a small rock on the top near a drop of about 40m the clouds rushing up past him (due to the wall and the wind picking up heavily there was like a cloud wall, it was really cool) he seemed happy. Only time I saw him on the trip like that lol. And well I wanted to walk up to him and join him where he was but then the wind cleared the clouds that were under us and I saw how close I was to that drop and suddenly felt extremely comfortable with where I was right now. 2 m away from the drop lol. Needless to say I threw myself on the ground in a very manly and calm fashion. Do not believe anything Joonas might suggest otherwise. And well then we got down from there and went for the actual hiking trip and despite the ****ed up road (which the cows in some diabolical plan to hinder us had destroyed by walking on it and making it a muddy mess and they **** all over the place like EVERYWHERE.) the rain, wind and cold I had a blast hahaa so fun^^. And well we were hiking and Dagoth and me were complaining about the ****ing wind trying to push off the edge of the mountain but Keksi perhaps the least sportif of us just made the whole trip without a single complaint. The guy just went on where Dagoth and me were like “AWW GOD DAMNIT **** YOU COW ARRGH SLIPPERY!! THIS WOULDN’T HAVE HAPPENED TO CORRIBUS!! THIS IS EXHAUSTING!”…. must be because he’s a fin... What was funny was that since it was very windy Dagoth was pulling the “There’s a voice in the wind…IT’S SARUMAN!!!” joke and well it was funny the first time and we laughed but either he was unsatisfied that scrubs like us didn’t get the entire hilarity of his wit or he himself really liked the joke because all he said was “IT’S SARUMAN” everytime the wind blew a little bit heavier. And despite him telling everyone “yeah sorry that’s the last time the jokes over” he did it again and again haahaha xD. I have to admit there is a charm in doing that on a mountain in ****ty weather were the hard winds blows cold rain in your face. You DO feel very Gandalf-esque but Joonas ended our young Gandalfs joke when he told him he’d throw him down the side of the mountain if he did that again. For a person with fear of heights you might see how that was unpleasant. He tried to “CREVAIN FROM DÚNLAND” line once but a look from Joonas silenced him^^. On our way to top we met a lot of cows some hiding trying to assault us others being open to debate and others just unhappy to see us. We reached the top and felt very manly and awesome but then for some reason the most important thing became finding out what the **** could reach the mountain and leave turds of ginormous size behind. Because for some mysterious unexplicable reason the top of the mountain was full of cow**** sized droppings and there was no way for a cow to reach the top!! You had to CLIMB there. So unless we stumbled into some secret german cybory-cow training facility I have no idea where the **** came from. Then we returned to München only to meet Angelito… but more on that later got to get to work now. See you latör~

The time has come for a new exciting entry to this epic thread! This one is not it but hey, an HC meeting does not happen everyday 
One beautiful day Joonas randomly decided to come to Athens. And he actually went for it! Seeing him at the airport was surprising and at the same time.. not. He was the kind of guy I knew and expected him to be, even his voice was close to what I imagined. In many ways the few days he stayed were not special, in that nothing extreme happened but they certainly were fun and memorable. There was a lot of walking involved, often in obscure Athens places, plenty of random discussions(hey Azzie I hear you are little!), beer consumption, exchange of impressions and naturally heroes duels! Which I sorely lost - Damn ubi balance! Joonas even came to an aikido class, a shame that my sensei was not there for him to issue a challenge. That would have been totally worth filming ^^ The same cannot be said about our martial arts confrontation, I was pretty much pwned  Did learn a few things though, it was fun. The next time we meet I will be ready for you, you're going down!
Oh yeah and I gave him MM's sandwich. I am not sure he will ever be the same again.
Ah, a shame his trip lasted so little, then again tomorrow I am returning back to Cyprus myself. Other things of note: I got to call Azzie while in Cyprus, I wish I could see his face when he realized who was on the other line Someday you will have to honour your promise and dare to show your face in Athens! I was also supposed to meet evinin but on her free day I was sick  Actually I had been sick for half of my visit in Athens, that was one sad affair.
Hopefully Joonas will update with his own impressions, unfortunately there are no pictures to immortalize our meeting. Maybe next time
