This is more a case of self-inflicted annoyance.

My laptop's screen is fucked up.  It does that "rolling image" thing that you see with broken film reels in old movies.  At first it was only if you had the screen at a particular angle, but now it happens every few seconds regardless.  Which means I need to replace a laptop that isn't even 2 years old.

The worst part is, if I'd just invested in a padded laptop case, this probably wouldn't have happened. :(

Cheer up.  If you can find someone who knows how to take the thing apart, you should be able to replace the screen.  Depending on the costs, it might be cheaper than getting a new machine.

I say this as someone who took apart an *old* laptop for a class.  I dunno how they come apart today, and I sure hope they do without too much hassle.

Think of the poor Kiwi...  Its egg is near the size of its body.

Ouch.....


WHOA. I had no idea...

I still wonder why the world's largest eggs are laid by flightless birds, the largest being from Madagascar's extinct elephant bird. Even the largest dinosaur eggs aren't as big as elephant bird eggs.

Because flying birds need to stay light. An egg like that would weigh them down.

That still doesn't explain why they can get bigger than the largest dinosaur eggs.

Minor annoyance, but what happened to Tropes.org?  Every time I go there, I get asked for a password, and then it says the page failed.

For some reason my fanfics are becoming somewhat smutty, I didn't really intend for that to happen but it's like some bizarre unstoppable force that's pulling me in that direction.

Still works for me. I Googled it and a few other people are having a similar problem, but I haven't found a solution.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

If that's the case I'd guess routing issue, which translates to "You're fucked and we don't know why". At least till someone between you and them figures it out.

If you wanna play with it you can open up a command prompt and type the command "tracert tropes.org" and see what happens. If you get a bunch of time outs, it's definitely routing. I'm running it for giggles and it does seem remarkably slow.

My allergies are kicking in hard. It may still be freezing outside but that doesn't stop the tree sperm.

It's a long story and I do not feel like going over it.
