Up at 3 on a non-school night. And this day will be filled with awesome.

I just turned my head and saw two Hershey Kisses sitting on my desk.

I read that as "deck" and thought there was a serious problem.
If that were the case, that would mean somebody is trying to lure Jeb out of her house with candy. BE CAREFUL, JEBJEB. Don't trust the nice man in the van.
Tried a drink called a "Black Bastard". It's basically a "Black and Tan", but instead of Guinness and Bass, it's Guinness and Arrogant Bastard. It was friggen delicious.
Thanks!Doubly awesome since the past few days I've woken up with one. Yesterday was terrible. I couldn't even see much of anything and couldn't handle my computer screen even with Excedrin.
Shane: that's really awesome. Headaches suck.
My copy of Star Wars: Darth Pagueis arrived in the mail today. ;DWant.
good maybe now we'll get some actual good writing instead of the crap we've been given.
Ironbite-seriously the mid point of season 2 sucked.
Yes I've read the comics. I think they're great. The TV show on the other hand....just wow. Seriously goes nowhere and when it does it's almost forced in there.
Ironbite-that and Ninja Zombies suck.

*perks up* Ninja zombies? Did I miss something?
And maybe it's just me. My favorite episode of season 1 was "Vatos", because it highlighted how good can shine through in situations like this and it's the lowest rated episode on a lot of polls.
To keep on topic, I'm now having a mini marathon with my director's cut of the first season. That's something good happening today.
I got to play with lots of very dangerous snakes today. It was awesome fun :DI know my dangerous snake is a hell of a lot of fun to play with. Just don't let him spit in your eye.
I'm disappointed it took almost two and a half hours for someone to make a comment like that. You guys need to lift your game.That's what you get for posting around 3 in the morning.
Visited my parents' yesterday because mom wanted to go clothes shopping together. Once the warm weather returns, I will be looking SEXAY!!

Will be? My dear, you always are.
The kids and I made fruit pizza this afternoon, which ended up being dessert for dinner this evening.
I wish I could show you what I saw from the air today.Something like this?
The rice paddies are flooded right now to make them ready for the next crop. From the ground, they just look a bit like little lakes. From the air, though...
You've seen fields from the air before? It's like that. Only instead of earth or grass, it's water, flat little plains of water marked off in regular shapes, demarcated by man-made barriers of raised dirt. And they're all different colors. Muddy browns mixed with blues and greens, in strangely regular shapes. Some of them are pure blocks of color, while others are striped and mottled, looking almost exactly like old wood planks, the impurities in the water looking like the grain of the wood.
And it reflects. It's especially striking as we move over the land. The clouds are reflected into the water. It looks like nothing so much as a stained glass window in the Earth, with another sky below us.
It's beautiful. I wish I could have taken a picture. I wish you could see it.
Fixed my radio today. For those of you who haven't heard about it, it's an enormous antique about the size of a television set - we had to take it completely apart and put it back together again. Took all day, then I got invited to a game of laser skirmish in the evening 8)
6 of my breedings came back today on Aywas and I can hatch 2 of them tonight. I submitted them on Dec 30th. 4 weeks is an absolutely fantastic turn around time for mutant breeding.

I'm a little disappointed that I beat the odds and got a non-mutant. Also trying to figure out how this
(http://images.aywas.com/pets/unus/unus_forget-me-not.png) X (http://images.aywas.com/pets/kyre/kyre_candystar.png) gave me a bird.

Score! Mutant! Except...this is a really pretty one. I was expecting a morlock and I got Emma Frost.
That reminds me--I still need to make breeding predicts for my Finxes. :3 Have to use site colorations, since I don't have two customs in any one species, nor do I have any metal customs I really want to breed.
Party at Jeb's place!!!!!!

Got another one this morning when the decorated phoenix tree regenerated. Now this is a morlock:

The parents were a Fairy Lunaris and a Sundae Lunaris and she will haunt your nightmares. Or offer you icecream. I haven't decided which yet.
I'm also thinking of entering the Reve in the drinking game if I have enough alcohol. We'll see what I've got the 31st in comparison to the high score board. As long as one of the other winners is a melo(griffin), soli(paleo), oakl(ippo), lacer(lysk), gael(sway), insi(campe), oske(shu), or maki(nikko) I have a good chance of getting a hybrid out of the breeding since Frey pairs up drinkers by whatever makes a hybrid>won't make a new hybrid but is rare/uncommon/hybrid>whatever's left.
What coin are you using, anyway? Metal or lesser breeding? Do you know which finxes you're going to use? Of the ones you own I'm partial to the wings on the Goldrings and the overall coloration of the Holiday Rose. Did you try advertising on the breeding board yet? Some people will let you use their custom for free, or at a very low fee.
1. Metal. It was a gift from another user.
2. The only kitties I have with the same lineart and opposite genders are Stellar Tiger and Holiday Rose. I would go for that Goldrings in a heartbeat if I'd had LBC instead of MBC.
3. No, I haven't. By the time i thought of asking around, I'd already made one of the predicts.
I got an absolute fuckton of dental work done between yesterday and today. One cavity dealt with and a temporary put on, plus a root canal, and four fillings in a row today.
I noticed scotsgit is posting again!
In other news, I got a bit of a boost to write again.
I got Fortress by Protest the Hero, thus adding to my collection of metal music that is awesome. Also I have new yarn.Now get "Scurrilous" and your life will be complete. If only because they directly rip on the Jonas brothers in one of the songs XD

Have you ever said something stupid on twitter because the thought crossed your mind, assuming no one was listening?
(http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff388/Chi_Shiro/ZachBraffTweet-1.png)
I...am counting this in the good things column for the moment. I just kinda assumed celebrities didn't actually read tweets and this made me rethink some of the twitter trash I've been letting fly.

My classmate just showed me a giant trollface he created in our comp sci lab. That was fucking awesome.
Shane's sig made me happy. Also, I knit a bunch of hats this weekend and wrote a Valentine to my boyfriend on pretty stationery.
I finally figured out how to not suck (somewhat) at Age of Wonders.

That's the one. Brilliant game and one of the most complex turn-based strategies I've ever played. As for your question, I've no idea. I only just managed to not get my ass handed to me in the first scenario of the Keeper's campaign.
That said, I will say that ballistae are most definitely overpowered. Four of the buggers in a line and it seems the enemy no longer want to kill me on account of all the free javelins I'm sending their way.

I. Fucking love. Age of Wonders. Its one of my single most favorite strategy games, like...ever. In fact, I installed it on my laptop last night because you reminded me of it. Thank you.
This happened last week and I get a TON of flak for saying this about myself but I feel proud enough of this happening to weather the snarkiness and share it with the class.
I am officially no longer allowed to think of myself as 'fat' no matter what I think about myself because as of last week, I fit into a little girl's XL skirt. This actually makes me feel really awesome about myself
Rat, stop being creepy. >.>
My new computer came...and I'm on right now. YAY!!!

Nice. I should be ordering one in the next week or so. Finally I'll be able to see what the button marked 'medium' (or 'high'. A man can have dreams) in the graphics menu on Skyrim does.
A good thing did come out of the freezer blowing up that I mentioned in the Annoy thread. I got to munch my way thorough a bucket of rum and raisin ice cream.
I woke up to Link poking me in the mouth with his sword.
I found a 3DS + four games + some accessories on eBay for $215 if I instant buy it. I'm bloody tempted to buy it, if only because I'm pretty much guaranteed to make a good $50 profit if I resell just the 3DS, much less the other shit that comes with it. What do you guys reckon?

My band's just been booked for a show in Anaheim in April! It's a 45min set, and I'm really excited! :D
HAHAHAHAHAH!!! I was just informed that we'll be playing on Easter Sunday! I am gonna have so much fun with this! >:)
Oh, of course. But that's to predictable. Gotta come up with something weird, too. Maybe rent a Roman soldier costume for the night and wear it on stage ;)My band's just been booked for a show in Anaheim in April! It's a 45min set, and I'm really excited! :D

I bought a skirt today. It's the first one I've owned since elementary school and I like it.
OH DEAR SWEET BABY JESUS.
CUPCAKE ATMS!!! (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/46602196/ns/local_news-new_york_ny/#.T1OZMfVn3dK)
PEOPLE, MANHATTAN IS GETTING MACHINES. THAT WILL DISPENSE. CUPCAKES!!!
I need no more evidence. Clearly there is a god, and that god gives us cupcakes. Oh, and eternal life and shit, but mostly cupcakes.
A pink prototype of the cupcake ATM is already installed outside Sprinkles' flagship bakery in Beverly Hills.
So. Rammstein is performing in my area in a few weeks. I need to get tickets--I haven't been to a concert since 2007!
Two of my Tumblr posts have gone viral in the past three days. I'm basking in an ocean of love.
Awesome. Was it pinkeye after all?

Yup. And, doc gave me some cipro eyedrops, so this crap will be dying in short order.

Also, dropped 14 pounds since the start of the new year, to the extent that I'm wearing a belt I bought EIGHT YEARS AGO. I bought it, thinking I'd slimmed down enough to go to a smaller waisted belt. I was wrong, and I've had it all this time. Wore it exactly once. Now? it's tight, but it FITS!

This is the best news I've read all day. Congratulations
I also have about $100 extra and plan to go on a shoppin spree this afternoon following hair removal, but this is relatively unimportant.
Congrats again Jeb, it makes me happy when good things happen to good people and I can't think of anyone more deserving. :)
Apparently my tattoo (DNA helix on my forearm) is so renowned throughout the uni, that people in the economics department have heard of it. I'm in BIOMEDICINEThat's pretty damn sweet, dude.
Also, I'm going to see John Cleese tomorrow, for free :D Birthday gift
Tool announced that they'll be recording a new album (http://www.metalinjection.net/upcoming-releases/tool-planning-to-record-new-album-this-summer) this summer! It should be out by the end of the year, given the normal recording/mixing time (4mo. or so). :D :D :D

Found out that all of the main TNG cast members will be at the Calgary Comic Expo in April. Fuck yeah!
I hung out with John Cleese and a fuckton of comedy superstars today. Cleese thought of my stand up routine as a "fine job"

Also, I saw a hipster fall off his bike while he was trying to fiddle with his iPhone and pedal at the same time.
I got an official job offer from Wally World...part-time, and as a "sales associate," but money's fuckin money!
So, more about the comic expo. Along with all of the main TNG actors (and Denise Crosby), apparently Robert Englund, Stan Lee, James Marsters, John Noble and Adam West are going to be there. Badass.
Yesterday, when pumping gas, I got the pump to stop on exactly $30.00, which always makes me smile.
Been playing Conker's Bad Fur Day, and I must say it's fucking brilliant. Seriously, why did I never play this back in the day? It's like Banjo-Kazooie, only no holding back on the dirty jokes. It's like a dream come true.
Cait, visits like that are awesome.

Weird though... when I first read that, I thought you said "PIMPING gas".
I've had one of those days where I don't have to worry about life's problems at all...
Oh well, back to reality come Monday.
We played with this (http://www.bitstorm.org/gameoflife/) in class today. It's addictive.Did you play it with a Prius?
That's awesome, Wykked! Glad you've found something to help. Finding the right med can be a hassle.
Welcome back to your true self. :)
I'm happy for you. I really am.
My 10 am class was just CANCELED.

I got a lot done today -- finished a program and completed an entire semester of Spanish homework.
Edit: An awesome thing that just happened -- my landlady randomly found a copy of Oblivion and gave it to me!

Be careful with that. According to movies (and even video games LIKE OBLIVION), randomly found objects tend to either be cursed, or will drag you unwittingly into a wacky and/or dangerous adventure.
I got a CD of lullaby covers of a bunch of Metallica songs. "One", "Wherever I May Roam", "Enter Sandman", "Fade to Black", "Nothing Else Matters", "Battery", "The Unforgiven", "Master of Puppets", "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)", "Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)", and "...And Justice for All". Lovin' the glockenspiel.
Technically this happened last night, but I was tired and wanted to get some extra sleep before today, but I found out that Nightwish and Kamelot are doing a US tour together, and the tickets are way cheaper than I was expecting! Gonna be buying my tickets for their San Diego show (Oct. 6) as soon as I have money.
Which leads to the reason for wanting extra sleep, I've got a job interview with Universal Studios today! It's just a seasonal gig, but I'll take it!
I'd probably leave it in... or be OCD about it and get one for play and one for collecting.
I demand pictures.
Also, I finally got sunglasses today.

The package says it's 'limited edition' for some god awful reason. It was free from ThinkGeek.
It's only 50 dollars.
Something that made me titter like an immature child...I found a package of condoms behind some deodorant when I was doing stock rotation today. A pack of Trojans...non-lubricated Trojans. Someone was considering purchasing non-lubricated condoms.
Wut?

Some people are sensitive to the kinds of lubricants that are used in condoms. You really don't want to break out on your happy-bits. So, unlubricated.
They're probably using a lube they can handle, separately.

My band's gotten an offer to play Summer Slaughter in August. We need to destroy the Chain Reaction venue in Anaheim to be considered for SS, but if we wreck this set we'll be unstoppable! We'll be playing the biggest metal tour in the country and without having been a band for a year!Sounds awesome, congrats! ;D
I'm really, really excited! :D :D :D /raptureready
Recently I cracked open an old copy of The Joys of Yiddish. I think most of the words in this book can be broken down into these categories:OY VEY!
1) Religious terms
2) Insults
a) Insults that weren't always insults
b) Compliments used ironically to be insulting
c) Twenty-plus ways for "complete and utter fool," all with their own slightly differing connotations
3) Compliments
a) Compliments that were derived from insults
b) Compliments that you think are compliments until you accidentally use them in the wrong context, where they become insults, thus making you look like one of the words from 2.c.
4) Things parents do to/with their kids (no, I'm not talking about wincest, get your mind out of the gutter)
5) Neutral words
a) That can also be used as insults
b) That can also be used as compliments
c) That can be used as insults and/or compliments, possibly at the same time

My neighbor who's an Italian great grandmother gave me toast and raisin bread on my way to work, and then had homemade pasta and meatballs with dinner rolls and whoopie pies waiting for me when I got home.
Well your band FB posts an endless amount of updates, so thats not surprising you post about it in here :P
Today, I got 97 percent on a physio prac and 75 on a chem tute test. Im pretty pleased :3
Helping a random stranger I've never even met solve their problems and making them happier people...there's very few things that feel better than that.Except when you find out later that your advice was so bad that is was responsible for multiple suicides. That shit tends to ruin it.

Doesn't sound like it. We're supposed to be the headlining band that plays while this little kid in the pit discovers the Power of Metal and destroys a massive skinhead that's been giving him trouble.
I dunno... will there be zombies?
Thats awesome! Congrats.Thanks ^_^

In another spat of good band news, we have our first t-shirt design, which should be available for our show on Friday :D (let me know if the image doesn't show up)In unrelated awesomeness, my grandparents got me a book on Nordic runes for my birthday.(click to show/hide)

We're supposed to be the headlining band that plays while this little kid in the pit discovers the Power of Metal and destroys a massive skinhead that's been giving him trouble.
I dunno... will there be zombies?
In another spat of good band news, we have our first t-shirt design, which should be available for our show on Friday :D (let me know if the image doesn't show up)In unrelated awesomeness, my grandparents got me a book on Nordic runes for my birthday.(click to show/hide)
As for the shirt:That's really nice. Whoever drew that has some talent. The band's name is Nihilius? I'm not quite able to easily read heavy metal band names I'm not familiar with yet.
Ahh, yeah I see that 'T' that I missed now. Hehe, my bad. :pNo worries. Our singer traced the name out in another image because so many people were having trouble with it. For some reason, it's an unwritten rule in death metal that the band name be nearly illegible.
... Hey, it could work. The band's name could be "TWISTED WOOD" *Headbangs*On a totally unrelated note, I now have a name for my new public safety campaign about the dangers of inserting one's wedding tackle into combine harvesters.

Not to uh... product whore or anything, but anybody who wants one should probably PM me.
I think my anti-anxiety meds (Buspar, for those who are interested) are starting to work. Went to a fairly well-packed Wal-Mart supercenter today, something that usually makes me at least a little anxious, and I felt fine! Normalcy, I am one step closer...That's good news. I hope the meds continue working well for you. :)

Well, I'm totally moved into my new place now, so there is that.
In other news that I'm not sure if it counts as good or bad, I have benign brain tumors. Not sure if it is good since they're there in the first place but not growing again, or if it is bad for the same reason.
I love how easy it is to remove a strapless bra, since I always like to take mine off when I get home.
I don't think I know a woman who can't take her bra off while keeping her shirt on. It's a very useful skill.

That does not sound good in any way.
It is useful, though I don't know how you'd do that if you were wearing a long-sleeved shirt and a bra with straps. Sure, you can slip one arm out of the shirt at a time to get the straps and technically not be taking your shirt off, but come now...
A shirt like this (http://www.rockbottomt-shirts.com/images/products/8462.jpg)? The effort it takes to get the straps down through the entire length of those sleeves far surpasses the effort required to remove your shirt.
I bought this :)
That's really cool. Welcome to the guitar world. Be careful as guitar acquisition can be addicting. :D I started with 1, now I have 8... Kinda like cats.

Tonight I went to a ska show, had something called a Creamsicle Crush (which was super delicious), made friends with some (super drunk) marines, did some dancing (that's apparently called skanking?) and had a fucking awesome time.Ska dancing is called skanking, yes. It doesn't necessarily mean the dancers are skanks.
We've finally released our first song! Whoohoo! Ladies, gentlemen, and whatever else you identify as that I've probably never heard of before, I give you:

I GOT BIRTH CONTROL. LEGALLY AND IN FULL SIGHT OF THE PARENTS. WITHOUT THEM KNOWING WHAT IT WAS REALLY FOR. FUCK YEAH.
I still have to wait until my next period to get it, so I can't start until July. But STILL.
I got a prescription for birth control today. And my parents still don't know what I really need it for. YAY.
The only reason I even get my periods is because of birth control. I hadn't had one in seven months went I started the pill.
The first one after that long wasn't super bad, other than the part about it lasting for two weeks. I've generally been pretty lucky with that.

Went on a date for the first time in 2 years 8 months today. And it didn't suck, in fact far from it!
During my short vacation to Vancouver, we idly decided to check out the Museum of Anthropology at UBC. Turns out that it was a good choice. They have an incredible collection of regional Native artifacts.I went there a number of years ago when I was in Vancouver. I enjoyed it, as well as the city in general. I'd definitely like to go back some time.

Before this, I had only the foggiest clue how serialization in C# worked. I didn't even really know how it'd all fit together, but my ramshackle collection of ideas (many fueled by my good friend, caffeine) turned out looking better than its competitor, and I'm doing this all by myself, learning shit as I fucking go.I'll double check how I'm doing it. The easy(and slow in enterprise applications) way largely consists of attaching a keyword to the serializable object, and making sure the right constructors exist for .net to do everything for you. But I don't remember how I'm committing it to a string off the top of my head.

using System.Collections.Generic;

I was at a graduation party today and heard a man say "It's like playing Russian Roulette- whoever whines the most gets what he wants."
Sir... That's not how Russian Roulette works. At all.

I finally got a chance to get a bra fitting today(they do it in the lingerie dept. at my job), it feels nice to have a proper fitting bra, I'm a 38 D.
So, again, this was technically yesterday, but I was incredibly busy and didn't really have time (or energy) for computer things.Nice, congrats! ;D
First and foremost, I finally got a job! I'm now a porter-for-hire through a staffing company that helps apartment complexes find additional maintenance and leasing staff when they need the help. Take that, 1.5yrs of unemployment!
Secondly, after getting back from the interview and changing, I went to a bar and had a really long conversation with one of my closest friends. I also enjoyed getting drunk for the first time, which may have been due to the fact that my friend is more of a philosophical drunk than, y'know, ragey or depressed or something. I also tried my first tequila shot, and this mixed drink that's basically whiskey and lemonade, which was surprisingly good! I then proceeded to crash on my friend's couch, since she lives closer to the bar and I don't currently have keys to my building (another story for a different thread). Not a bad evening at all.
Good job, friend.
I'm no longer single.
Happy belated birthday, Prog. Glad you're still around.Thanks. I mean, there's no real reason health-wise why I shouldn't be, but you know how unpredictable life itself can be.
I've been exercising and watching my diet (not extremely closely, but close enough >_>) and I've lost a belt notch worth of weight. I don't know how much weight that is, as I don't have a scale, but it's still encouraging.
I got a girls number and I'm going on a date with her this Saturday.
My band just got home from our first out-of-state gig, in Vegas of all places! It was exhausting, but incredibly fun, and the venue wants us to come back in December! I don't remember my privacy settings, but I put up some pics on my Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3455998322852.2127938.1357658340&type=3). If that doesn't work, let me know, and I'll just link a few to the Member Pic Thread.
This actually happened several weeks ago, but I'll post it anyway.
"For a great number of reasons that I don’t want to go into, today was shaping up to be one of the worst days of my life. You know, the kind of day when you just want to lock yourself in your room, turn off your phone, and cry until there’s nothing left in you. One of those days, up until I got on the MAX.
Five stops from home, the train doors slid open and a little girl got on with her family. She couldn’t have been older than six, and was wearing a clearly homemade pink cape and huge pink sunglasses. She sat herself down and proudly informed me that she was a superhero. Figuring I may as well humor her, I asked how the heroics had been going. With a pout, she explained that she’d been looking all day and still hadn’t found any bad guys to fight. I pointed out that if she couldn’t find the bad guys, she could look for the good guys and help them. She agreed enthusiastically, and wrote it down in a little pink notebook with “HERO BOOK” written on the cover in glitter pen. I asked if I could get a picture of her, but she refused- she couldn’t risk anyone knowing her secret identity.
We kept talking for the rest of the ride, and she told me all about her superpowers and how her kitten sidekick was guarding her room at home. As the train rattled into my stop, I thanked her for her conversation and got up to leave. Without warning, she wrapped herself around my leg in a huge hug. I looked down at her in surprise, and she gave the biggest smile I’ve ever seen.
“Hey mister,” she said, “thanks for being one of the good guys.”
Little lady, you may never save the world, but you sure as heck saved my day."

I finally got around to watching Breaking Bad. I'm seven episodes into season two and so far, while the show is a little slow and the family drama side of things is a bit over-emphasised, overall it's fairly decent, especially for a drama. I should have a good bit of fun with this show over the next few weeks.Wait until season 3. There's less family drama and more drug drama.
Aye, you really should. To my knowledge those old cartridge based games have battery-fed memory for save files. It's 2012 now, those batteries aren't going to hold out for much longer, particularly for the older systems.
We had a load of Mills&Boon romance paperbacks come in to work today, so I spent the morning amusing myself by putting price stickers over key words in the titles to make them much more interesting. EG, 'A Night of ****ing', 'A **** at the Altar', Staking His ****', etc.
Well, it kept me entertained, anyway :P
Is it bad that when I tried to imagine what would go in the blank for "Staking His ****", the first word that came to mind was "Vampire"?M&B actually have a line of paranormal romances - ghosts, vampires, werewolves etc. In fact they cater to just about every taste these days (except the obviously illegal).

Just got a new liter bottle of vodka earlier today and I dominated half the bottle (50% alchohol). Which is really odd since it used to only take a cup of wine to take me down.Probably need to ease it off for a while, matey. Sounds like your tolerance is building up. Half a liter of 100 proof though... really isn't all that much. (Says the former sot).

The grocery store Wegmans recently opened in my area, and I was finally able to go today. It is so incredibly amazing. I am taking my camera next time I go. There is a soda machine with over 125 different flavors, the food court is as big as a restaurant, and the candy aisle is like a straight up candy store. It has its own parking garage, and there is an escalator in the store.Heh, they're awesome, they started here in Rochester and I rarely shop anywhere else. Though I think I'll have to check out some of their newer stores, most of them around here are like 20 years old. Still nice, but pre-mega store.
I like Harris Teeter myself but Wegman's is great as well. Just the prices are a bit...pricey.
Ironbite-but that food court...my god that food court.

No class tomorrow, either!

I got up this early (9 am) to register for classes, and I got everything I wanted. My schedule's looking mighty fine, especially Monday/Wednesday where I'm done with classes by noon.
Well, the class that day is just 11-11:50, so I'm quite alright with that. The current semester has been particularly bitchy because on Mondays and Wednesdays, I don't get out until 6:15 pm.

Yeah, I know the feeling. My last full semester of University, I had a MWF class from noon-1 and then Tues/Thursday classes from 8-3:15 (with a break from 12:30-2). I think University departments get together and plan "this is how we're gonna fit the most classes into the fewest days so the students are swamped."

Sounds like a royal pain in the ass for the players. You've shelled out for a bunch of cards, you've got a pretty solid grasp of the meta-game and a comfortable strategy built around it, then suddenly its all useless.
Then again, I suppose it would keep things from getting stagnant, ensures power creep isn't an issue and keeps things accessible to newbies. I suppose it all comes down to what you're looking for in a trading card game.

Well part of me doing this is to make sure I can pass the Navy s physical exams and the such mostly the 3 mile run that they put you through (I went through some basic over the summer and I hate this part the most)If you're required to run, you need to start running. The biking will help a little, but not much.

So she came to my dorm's coffee bar tonight. I said hi, and we got to talking. She's the girl I mentioned a few weeks back who I sort of asked out to dinner. She asked why I did that, and I fumbled my answer.

Her: Was that first thing what you meant to say?(click to show/hide)

I finished my Christmas wrapping today. Also, when I called a couple places to pay bills, it turned out that my account had been credited for a couple things, so I have nothing to pay. That leaves at least an extra $400 in my pocket, which is quite pleasing.

I got some new yarn today :3 I'm going to wear my knitting needles to nubs <3
So my next ink is going to be adding some more and finishing up one of my current tatts, but I found a sick design for one my next two full inks. The first one I'm going to do is a silhoutte of a forest around my right wrist, but I stumbled across this one today. I had gotten a new Alestorm album, and this was on the cd and the back inside paper as well.That's gonna be pretty badass.

The heat's back on, now it's just a waiting game to see how long the house warms up completely.

What kind of yarn?
Our chimney is fixed and we have fire now. Also an easy way to kill stink bugs.You sure that won't make them smell even worse?

medium worsted weight. 4. Looking to try some bulky 5 stuff though.
Also, more good stuff happening: I got my car back with the new alternator in the day after I dropped it off.
I just found out that my band will be opening for Cattle Decapitation in San Diego next month, at the venue where I spent the best nights of my teenage years. I could not be more excited right now.
I just made a delightful breakfast for dinner. Three Belgian waffles, two scrambled eggs, a pound of hash browns and six sausage links each for my roomie and I.
And I had real food for the first time since Thursday!
...What?
No, but in all seriousness since everyone is tired of hearing about my food at the hospital: I have an infection and they're treating it so hopefully I get to go home tomorrow!

I am jumping for joy right now. My internship application required transcripts from both of my colleges, and I was having issues with getting my community college to send one. Well, I just checked my application status, and the transcript has been processed! I'm good to go!

And soon I'll be making jokes about you surrounded by seamen.
Lately I've been making jokes about her, and everyone laughs at them. I like to do this because she gets REALLY self conscious when I joke about her, like even with a really light one about her that no one should get offended by, she turns bright red and can only react with "Yeah?! well...you.. sh-SHUDDUP BITCH". It's actually quite hilarious.

I know we all can't be as nice as Jeb, but we should try. If she's that insecure about things, picking on her (even if she tacitly condones it by picking on others) isn't the answer. I was bullied in High School and at the time it does suck, but after you graduate, you'll think back and wonder "why did I even respond to such pettiness." I think it's best to just let it go if she tries to put you down. A simple "yeah, my picture sucks, eh" will quickly take the sting out of her insults. Likewise, when she picks on others just telling her it's not nice and being friendly towards those she bullies will make her look bad enough.
TL;DR, you're better than that, don't stoop to her level.

Yeah, there are better ways to go about a situation like that. Just bullying back makes you no better than her.
I feel so happy today... I had a long, much-needed discussion with a friend of mine vis a vis religion vs. faith last night, and a weight's been lifted off my shoulders. I've got lunch and an Ubermonster in me, I'm going to write later, and I may even bake a cake tonight, just for fun. On top of that, I got a lovely fudge recipe from my roommate's mother. That's on the docket for next week's baking.

If you don't mind me asking, WHAT is an Ubermonster?
I tend to prefer the regular or giant bottle variants of Monsters. The teensy tiny ones do next to nothing, for me, and I have the sneaking suspicion that its because its more "energy blend" and less caffeine.
I just wrote a crapload of HTML on my first day of class, and it actually looks like something decent. I feel mighty fine, considering I haven't done any error checking, but just opened the page to see how it turned out.
Our new Keurig machine came to today...FUCK YEAH!! Now we just have to figure out how to work it, given that it's a little bit different from our old one.

Just played a round of League of Legends where both team's AD carries scored penta kills. Statistically, you're only supposed to see that once per 150 games or so.

I love video game moments that make you feel badass. I've been playing WoW again because one of my friends got me back into it, and we were doing a dungeon run. Normally in a dungeon, I average about 25-50k dps, but was doing over 98k at one point that dungeon run. I felt unstoppable.
I have an audition tomorrow.Oooh. What for?

I never actually carry a team when I play a carry. Mostly cause my twitch reflexes, builds, what have you just don't give me a whole lot of damage output. But! I can set up kills for others to get so I'm good for something.
Ironbite-though when I get Fizz I get triple kills all the time.
My friend found a lump on her breast a few weeks ago, which was frightening as hell. She got it removed today, and it doesn't look cancerous.
Novartis sent my mom a free month of cancer drugs to hold her over while they're going through her paperwork to provide further financial assistance for medications. That easily saves her $12,000.

I've gone, since last July, from 250 to 190 pounds. I'm officially no longer overweight.
I'm also starting take up parkour, and I'm happy to find I'm not completely awful at it. I've got no upper-body strength, but I can run and jump pretty well.
My Star Wars inspired eye shadow came in the mail today, I now feel like a true geek.
So a when we were talking about double standards and sexism in english class, a guy joked "A lock that is unlocked by many keys is a bad lock, and a key that unlocks many locks is a master key" (yeah that's an metaphor for sex in case you didn't notice) . I said to him "A pencil sharpener that sharpens many pencils is a good sharpener, but a pencil that is sharpened by many wont be a good pencil for long"*.
*I got this from someone here who responded to the same "lock and key" thing with that comeback. Sorry, I forgot who it was... I think it was in the "Dumbest protest signs" or "dumbest political cartoons" or "Things people say on facebook rehashed" threads...
"A pencil sharpener that sharpens many pencils is a good sharpener, but a pencil that is sharpened by many wont be a good pencil for long"*.I suppose if you sharpen the entire thing in one go, but if you only sharpen it when it's unusable, then it'll be a good enough pencil regardless of how many different sharpeners you use.

Found a bottle of Victory Brewing Company's Oak Horizontal, an oaked barleywine ale. It was a limited release and is getting hard to find.

Got mah band's tickets for our show with Jeff Loomis and Soilwork today. Should be an easy sale for once cuz these bands are, y'know, good.
Also, finally learned to play Muse's 'Hysteria' the whole way through. I've only been at it for a year. I should probably revoke my Death Metal Card.

The episode of Star Wars The Clone Wars finally aired that I've been waiting for since the end of August. The last ten minutes were the most awesome shit ever.(click to show/hide)
Also, OMG, OMG, OMG, I have this online buddy from Croatia, she's really into Star Wars, and her favorite character is Palpatine, and that's how we connected...I just found out she's a Pony fan too.

To be honest I'm not that fond of the whole "Let's bring Maul back" stuff, but hey if Boba Fett can survive falling into the Sarlacc, then Maul can survive being cut in half, and surviving on hatred. Especially if it leads to Palpatine deciding to open up a can of whoop ass on him and his half brother... That being said Palpatine IS the Best Character of the whole saga...

See, Fett surviving the Sarlacc is believable because he was still in Mandalorian armor and was a walking armory when he fell in. Darth Maul? Not so much. Even his "pure hatred" would have hardly kept him from surviving a landing into water so far down the pit that you couldn't even see anything but black. The Force hasn't been demonstrated to have so much power, especially for a relative newbie, that it can save your body from being utterly pulverized AFTER being bisected at the waist.
Wait...why are you assuming Maul is a relative newbie when it comes to the Force? Where, anywhere, did Lucas say this?
Ironbite-Citation bloody needed bub.

As I recall, he was the sith equivalent of a padawan (to Sidious, if memory serves), so it's pretty likely. That and his Mad Lightsaber Skillz suggests that pretty much all of his training has been in that, while his force powers were of secondary concern.
However I understand that even palpatine comes back but at least that is resurrection by way of a 'perfect' clone rather than being fucking unkillable.
So this technically happened yesterday, but I did not have computer access, but I finally got to play Soma San Diego. For those of you not familiar, Soma is the metal venue for San Diego county. I lived up the street for it throughout all of high school, and spent many weekends and untold amounts of money there with my best friends, moshing to my favorite bands of the time. It's one of the big things that expired me to become a musician, so being able to play there, especially when my band isn't even a year old yet, is a dream come true. The venue didn't charge us for tickets we didn't sell like most do, they had stage hands to help us get our gear on and off stage, and some of my best friends (As well as parents, grandmother, and first guitar teacher) were in the audience. And, after the show, this one guy that was up against the front rail the whole time pulled me aside to tell me what a great player I am and ask for pointers to get better. It was weird but incredibly flattering. To top it off, the room was filled with people, and they all loved our music. Last night was easily the best show I've ever played. I can die happy now.
Woke up to an extra $1200 in the bank account.God damn. Nice!

My cat decided to run away last night. She's declawed (from a previous owner), and doesn't seem to understand what fear is, so I was really worried.
Someone found her this afternoon and called me. She has been getting alternating petting and scolding since.
My boyfriend bought me a high end gaming mouse
Not today but over the weekend:
I have gotten most of my wife's family into Doctor Who, and my 9 year old nephew is really into it. For my birthday, he took money out of his piggy bank and bought me a 10th Doctor Sonic Screwdriver. His giving it to me was cute enough, but then I opened it and put the batteries in it so that we could play with it. I set it down for a second and my 3 year old daughter picked it up, pointed it at him, hit the button (for lights and sound) and says "Come along, Pond". My wife and I cracked up (nephew hasn't made it that far in the episodes so he didn't catch the reference).
My daughter has also been running around telling everyone "Don't blink! You blink and you're boring!" Apparently, she said it correctly to my mother-in-law and she told her to say boring instead of dead. She's been doing it for a couple of weeks, and she said it to a lady looking at an angel picture at Hobby Lobby.
My professor gave us an extension on our giant circuit assignment. Fuck yeah! Now there's nothing standing between me and spring break.Similar thing just happened to me today. My biology test was pushed to Wednesday, so now I have the opportunity to get some work done on the weekend and hopefully get some money. I don't have a stable job, but I love doing oddjobs like that.

I wonder what the top results are from Vatican City...
I really hope the countries that have 'mom' in their top ten search results have just tried to find their country's equivalent of MILF porn...
Also, Chile's porn of choice is almost exclusively gay porn. I find this incredibly funny.
Peru. Fucking Peru. Their top 10? ALL GAY. #4 is "Just Beiber (Gay)." Yeah. Absorb that for a fucking minute. The #4 porn search in Peru is what I'm assuming is a misspelling of a request for Justin Beiber in gay porn. WHAT?
Also, South America in general seems to really, REALLY love its gay porn.

It means straight boys having sex, not gay men banging women.
Also INDIA #7 WTF
I only just noticed a few countries on the list.
Syria's #1 is "Aunt" and the rest include "creamy squirt," "doctor anal," "suppository (gay)," and "dirty scat." Pretty perverted for a fundie-rich country.
Cambodia is almost as gay as the South American countries.
I also note that America has a strange obsession with creampies compared to everyone else.

I'm so happy with it. :D
That's a really nice picture. I wish I could draw people.
So this quarter, I knew that I would only have to go to school two days a week - Tuesday and Thursday.
Then yesterday, my instructor for Game Design decides that, with only 6 students in the class, we only need to meet once a week. As everyone in my class has identical schedules (we're all Digital Media Arts majors in our final quarter), we voted to meet on Tuesdays, when we also have our one other class.
So this quarter, I only need to show up on campus ONE DAY A WEEK!
Mind you, I also need to get an internship, which is expected to fill up the other four days. But still...
I finally finished my Star Wars fanfiction story (my version of Ep VII). It's the longest story I've every written, 22 chapters, plus prologue and epilogue. I just need to finish the proofreading now.

Man, I envy you. A couple semesters ago, I was thrilled to have Fridays off. Class one or two days a week would be a luxury.
In math classes, I honestly never did the homework. Very few professors will waste their time grading such a thing, and they just recommend you do it so you don't flunk the tests.Beware this advice if you're in a tech school.

My math professors not only graded the homework, they'd take individual points off for each issue in your answer. I once had one problem cost me half the grade on a homework with 10 problems. I'd gotten a formula wrong in the second stage and managed to work it out to completion anyway. Could have just been the fact he was department head though. Freaking evil from my point of view.
Found out the annoying as fuck roommate is moving out. This person embodies everything that keeps me from going to clubs in LA. Cannot wait for her to leave.
Waitwaitwait...he was pouring fucking ACID on your shit? I dunno how it works in Australia, but over 'ere, I'd be mighty surprised if that didn't count as terroristic threatening, which if I'm not mistaken, is a felony in most states.
Terroristville. Australia. Potato. Potahto.Got to love when you catch them in the act of a concrete crime. Destruction of property fuckwad!
New Dragon Ball Z thing coming out. "Battle of Gods".

Apparently it did so well in Japan that the series is going to be revived.

Wait...that's actually true? I thought it was some bullshit rumor that someone started like people did with Dragonball AF and Absalon. The former being an April Fools' joke that got way outta hand, and the latter being someone getting -really- confused because they saw footage from the Data Cardass game they've got in Japan, which if I'm remembering right, is almost entirely video-based, like the old FMV adventure games.

My first paid article (http://www.creativeedgemusic.com/2013/04/los-angeles-metal-syrebris.html) got published this week! I interviewed another LA band, who happen to be friends of mine.
I have a temporary overhire position a Michael's store as a store opener. Job entails unloading all the merchandise and putting it on the shelves. (How the hell they're doing so well they can open some more stores in this economy is beyond me, but oh well.) HOPEFULLY, I'm one of the 60% of openers that get to stay after it's open. It's a 20 minute drive from my house, I would get a 25% discount, and they give you a whole hour for lunch. Plus benefits.
I started watching Dexter today, and four episodes in I'm absolutely loving that show. You know, I really want to know what's going on with mainstream American entertainment. Why is it big budget movies and music are almost entirely made up of crap, and yet downright amazing TV shows are almost a common occurrence? Whatever it is your TV producers are doing, they'd best keep that shit up.

I love dexter, but i dropped out of it because the channel that hosted it screwed with the times and i missed a couple of eps.
I told off a girl in my class today. We were talking about drug addictions and poverty, and since my class is rich republicans, many said that drug addicts "should just quit and move somewhere else". Then one girl said that her aunt had a crack addiction and did crack in front of her when she was 10, because she was addicted to it, not because she was some moron who is too lazy to try hard.
Well. Apparently another girl thought that was hilarious, since the girl was black. The girl who laughed is basically a stereotypical spoiled brat... I was fucking furious about her giggling, so I looked at her and said "wow... you're a cunt." She shut up after that.
I know that's mean, but I am proud because I actually stood up for someone. Plus I was getting really tired of people being assholes and getting away with it in the class(like calling the steubenville victim a slut).

It has been an absolutely GORGEOUS day today. Mid-60's, airing out the house with all the windows open, did some yard work, watched a bit of restaurant impossible, and going to fold some laundry in a bit.
One of my classmates tried to pay off my lab partner to keep the results to himself and not give them to me, and to my amazement, my lab partner said no.You should really be documenting this stuff. If you can prove that they're trying to sabotage your work, you could have them expelled from the university.
One got kicked out recently for pouring attempting to pour sulfuric acid over my stuff, the smell alerted half the science department.
With the other stuff, theres not much point because it will be a my word vs them case. And they'll eventually manage to pay off the girl or lie to her about me
I finally came across a troop selling girl scout cookies in my area, bought a few boxes.
Spoony released his Final Fantasy 13 Part 3 review last night.
Ironbite-my god....what is the point of this game?
I just got a new computer! Now I can finally start writing my Pirates story. Unfortunately, it only has Wordpad, so I may use the Office free trial until I can buy it (I have it free for one month).I love buying new computers (even if I'm known for clinging onto older models)! My latest rig is a monster of an HP with 2 TB of hard disk space, 10 GB of RAM, and a video card that runs fucking everything. It's given me little to no problems at all, and I only paid 300 bucks for it. Meanwhile, my brother paid 700 for a laptop that's supposed to have the same specs as mine, but blows up every time he tries to do anything at all with it. He just got a new laptop with Windows 8, and he's currently bitching about how he can't install Windows 7 on it because it's a Toshiba and installing older versions of Windows aren't recommended for those.
Open Office is a great program and it's free.
The music video I did for a Valencia student came out!Bleh. I hate that song, but it's always neat to see someone you know in a video.(click to show/hide)
I am now the owner of the Hyrule Historia and I am so happy for that.
Today we started a two day yard sale. It was supposed to start at 9am, but people started showing up about 6, before we even had signs up. It's not even 10 yet and we've already made more money and gotten rid of more stuff than I expected for the whole weekend.
So I did this today...
Maybe not the brightest thing, but it was good for a laugh or two.

My dad's genealogy test came back, and it is confirmed: my family is descended from ancient Irish royalty (through the male line, no less!)

I'm supposedly adopted into a Scottish Royalty clan. But who knows. I want a DNA test myself for various reasons. Not least of which because you can find out whether you're susceptible to something. I forget which things they can find.

Meanwhile I'm just probably descended from peasants...not mention most of my father's side is big question mark since his dad ended up in the foster care system after his parents died and it has been trouble finding out more.

Similar thing happened with my dad's dad. He was put up for adoption when he was born, and then ran away from his foster family when he was 18. Changed his name and everything. Have literally ZERO idea what that quarter of my heritage is. So I'm half French-Canadian, 1/4 Irish, and the rest... *shrugs*
My facebook project is DONE. It's not perfect, but during the demo today where we played with everyone else's facebooks, they all seemed to have many more bugs. I'm so friggin' content.
I have discovered something simple, yet incredibly fucking genius. Baked potato + dash of salt + ...wait for iiiiiiiit... Papa John's Garlic Butter. We had some leftover in the fridge, decided to put it on there and MY FUCKING GOD. I think this is gonna become one of my new things.

Awesome, I want to see Queen on TV.
Legacy of Romulus dropped tonight.
Ironbite-so...so happy.
I'm sorry.
They've updated the UI, allowing you to pick different color schemes including fucking TNG. The character creation has been streamlined, the Klingon side now allows you to start at level 1 instead of level 20, they've added a brand new map area called Paradise City where you have a crap ton player away teams running around killing the same shit as you and, oh yeah, YOU CAN PLAY AS THE ROMULANS!
My only issue is the fact the Romulan ship choices are....limited. Only one per tier until you hit Subadmiral.
Ironbite-meh whatever I'll be fine.
This may seem mundane and stupid but there's a stickbug in my room and it looks cool I wish I still had my specimen container so I could catch it and study it. (Also I've never seen a stick bug in real life only on tv)
Yayyyy

Only 7 for underage kiddie fiddling?
Ironbite-I'm not satisfied.

Ironbite-I'm not satisfied.
I'm not sure whether prostituion is or isnt illegal in Italy. As he only got in trouble for this girl makes me think that the underage bit was the big deal. Pretty sure he didn't deny rooting her once she was over 18.
Besides which I wasn't weighing on the legality or otherwise of it, simply that calling him a kiddy-fiddler is a bit of stretch.
I got cake.
This just in - DOMA has been struck down as unconstitutional, and the bill that Wendy Davis was filibustering in Texas last night was vetoed by the governor. It's invalidated.
Because I got 4 ICAPS the other day, I got $20 worth of coupons to blow at my job.
It's not my fault you have a gutter mind.

I finally built up the courage to color my hair.
I tried to dye my hair blonde once, when I was around 14. Worst mistake of my life.Same here, 15 though. Long story short, I was dressing up as Spike from BTVS. I looked cool for that day, at least.
I weighed myself after working out today. I'm up to 134.5 lbs. That's up 6.5 since I started a few months ago. I'm also 6 feet tall XD

Damn, you're skin and bones...
I know a guy from a gaming clan who's about that weight, but even taller. He can play music on his ribs.
I was born with a full head of red hair but it fell out and grew back in platinum blonde. I dyed my hair red a few months before I graduated high school, but I didn't like how much effort it takes to maintain dyed hair.

I been getting red highlights in my hair for almost a year now. I intended on going full on ginger one day. I love red hair, I find it to hot. Also I have no regents dying my hair, and have no shame in admitting part of the motivation behind was due to my favorite star wars character having red hair when he was younger.

I tried an experiment in the kitchen where I fried up some potatoes and sauerkraut with paprika. It turned out decently enough, and since I usually suck at cooking, I'll call it a success. On top of that, I tried a bottle of Kronenbourg Blanc with my meal, and found therein my new favourite wheat beer. Today was a good day.

That would be great, actually! I'm still living at home while I get my undergrad degree, and one of my goals for when I move out someday is to become halfway decent at cooking so I don't have to rely on buying premade, processed shit, or eating out all the time. Any and all help/tips/advice/recipes/whatever is welcome!:D

Today I signed a lease for my very first apartment! My new roommate is awesome and I'm super excited about everything. Moving isn't lots of fun, but I'm glad to start my new life. The flipside was that I had to drive 8 hours back home to Illinois today. I wasn't too fond of that.

Congratulations on your first apartment and living on your own for the first time! That seems so far away from home. I'd be terrified if I were in your shoes, since I haven't moved out yet. Or maybe I'm just developmentally delayed XD But I suppose at least you're within driving distance (even if it does take that long). Good luck with your new place!

I'm doing alright though since I'll have some really good friends living within 15 minutes of my apartment, plus my roommate who I get along with fantastically already. I felt like getting away from Chicagoland, plus my new school is one of the best for trans people in the nation, which makes it a great fit for me.

That's great that you have friends living close by and an awesome room-mate. That must make things a hell of a lot easier. I'd be even more scared if I didn't have friends or family close by.
And congratulations on your new school! Sorry, I hope you can forgive my ignorance in this, but what specifically about your new school makes it better for trans people than most other schools? Programs? Support groups? Understanding staff and student body? I'm genuinely curious to know.

That's great that you have friends living close by and an awesome room-mate. That must make things a hell of a lot easier. I'd be even more scared if I didn't have friends or family close by.
And congratulations on your new school! Sorry, I hope you can forgive my ignorance in this, but what specifically about your new school makes it better for trans people than most other schools? Programs? Support groups? Understanding staff and student body? I'm genuinely curious to know.
They have a ton of really helpful services catered to us right on campus, (http://www.phs.umn.edu/clinic/transgender/home.html) plus the university health plan covers most parts of transition, including SRS.
Wow. That's terrific! No wonder Queen is jealous XD Good luck with your new apartment and your new school!

My school offers all of that....
And Mira, while that is true, my Uni allows same-sex domestic partnership benefits. Ergo, same boat. Besides, that's irrelevant as I'm not getting married anytime soon.

Sorry. I wasn't trying to imply it didn't. Clearly, I just suck at humour.
Went out to a bar with my brother, stepsister (as of Saturday!), and cousin last night. First time, since we're now all old enough to do so. It was a ton of fun, and I'm sure my cousin and I will keep going after my siblings head back to school.
Also, some dude paid for my hangover food. It was really weird.
You might want to find out what kind of drunk weird you are first (assuming you don't already know). I haven't been too bad yet, but I've definitely pushed my limits a couple times. That said, it's a lot of fun when you're already in a good mood.Went out to a bar with my brother, stepsister (as of Saturday!), and cousin last night.

Awesome, I can't wait until I can go to bars next year.
At least it was the nice kind of weird and not the 'watch you in your sleep' kind of weird.

I still think of you as 16.

That image and your avatar go fantastically together.

Lindeman's eh? Alright, I think I've heard of it then. I'm sure I'll be able to find it. There's this huge-ass liquor store around here that just opened a year ago, and it has pretty much EVERYTHING. Thanks.
I will also try this beer, but I can't guarantee that I'll like it.
^^ Where are you in Canada, if you don't mind my asking? I live in Calgary.
I don't know why you two are bickering. Canada is just America's goofy looking hat. What part of the hat you are is irrelevant since America is still #1 :P
We're not bickering, we're building bridges. There will be peace between our warring cities.
Also, I hate Calgary's football team, mostly because a kid I used to work with who I hate got drafted onto it.

I'm glad you broke your several-month-silence to post this.
Depending on where you live it has to be special order. That specific bottle is Lindemans Kriek (pronounced like creek). It goes down real smooth.
Last time I went to buy it, the guy didn't even know what it was even tho I found it on his shelves. lol
Hmm. Does it taste anything like Floris Kriek? I saw that on the shelf, but I don't think it's a lambic, so maybe it's not comparable. Or have you had Floris Kriek at all? Yeah, I've had fruit beers before and they actually tasted like beer with just a bit of the fruit flavour. Thought the Pomme would be like that.

I haven't tried it. I've only had Belle-Vue and Lindemans, sadly.
I did some googling and it appears that it's really average tasting. It only garnered a 77 on beeradvocate. But it's up to you if you just want a sampling of what cherry beer is kinda like. I'd suggest trying to get a bottle of Lindemans or Belle-Vue for a better first experience. But tastes differ so widely you might end up liking the Floris compared to Lindemans or Belle-Vue.
I had an awesome steak at Applebees, and had an attractive waitress with the most awesome eyes I've seen (pale-green, something I've never seen before). Too much makeup, imo, but still attractive. Tipped extra because she was really damn good, not showing up a million times but not showing up only once or twice, either.
Oh so very a tangent, but was quite worth it.
My wife's water just broke. Hospital told us to wait untill the morning before coming to the maternity ward unless it seems like the baby won't wait untill the morning. ;)
Particularly good news since the caesarean birth had been scheduled for monday due to some complications but my wife was already traumatized by the previous time that had to be done and in her own words has been hoping to give birth the natural way for ten years now.
This story will be updated in a day at the latest.

Yeah, I don't always go by those beer-rating sites. I've had beers that only got average reviews on those sites, but I thought were fantastic, and I've had beers that those sites gave really good ratings but which I thought were very average and "meh". Still, I'll have to look out for those beers. Hopefully I can find them somewhere. Thanks again.

Met my family at a pub today. Everything on draft (which is a lot) was $4 (cheap for Canada, don't know about anywhere else). Had a couple pints and generally had a good time. Then walked around and sat down at a café, ordered some tea and baklava (I freaking love that stuff) to kill time while I waited for the alcohol to wear off before driving home. Haven't been out in a while, so it was really nice.

That's not bad pricing for beer. It's AT LEAST 5 bucks a beer anywhere near me.
Found a good deal on a pair of dress pants and a skirt, the total came out to $9.35 for both.
Landed a job interview for tomorrow, and started making plans to surprise my friends back in LA when I'm able to visit. Showing up unannounced is so much fun.
This is why I love my associate discount, 25% off. Plus the stuff was clearance, and I was really happy to find a pair of slim leg dress pants in my size in the mix.Found a good deal on a pair of dress pants and a skirt, the total came out to $9.35 for both.

I heard an ad on the radio today. It said Sleepy's is coming to Chicago. I was pumped until I realized I'm moving away this week :(

I just put it on the Steam marketplace for $59.99. I didn't think anyone would actually buy it, but lo and behold some genius actually pays for it just two weeks or so after I put it on the market. Unfortunately, I can't spend it anywhere other than Steam, but I'm sure I can find a use for it nevertheless.
If I can get the same results with the new massive pile of trading card guff that I just bought (for around a grand total of $1.50, no less), I just may have discovered the most wonderful thing I could possibly envision.
The Pony cosplay tail that I ordered came today.

I made peanut butter cookies with Nutella in place of peanut butter, and they turned out amazing. By "amazing" I mean "paper-thin and 6" across", but at least they're not too crispy. Note to self: use more flour next time.That sounds damn good.

Does that mean he's gonna nuke his Youtube channel and force everyone to stop using his mods?

Pahimar put up a new Let's Mod video, detailing everything you need to know to get a Minecraft 1.6.x dev environment up and running! Also, apparently, Pahimar's getting married, which is awesome.

I was mowing with the family's shitty lawnmower that takes basically ten minutes to get it going and will slow to a halt if the grass is too thick.
I accidentally banged the top part fairly hard against the meter on the side of the house. No visible damage.
The lawnmower now starts up in seconds and cuts through thick grass fairly well.
I accidentally fixed the lawnmower. With percussive maintenance.
Truly, I am the Jesus of technology.
I was mowing with the family's shitty lawnmower that takes basically ten minutes to get it going and will slow to a halt if the grass is too thick.Reminds me of my old Xbox. Back during a hurricane, we moved it from my room. My father dropped it and it broke. I punched it and fixed it. Lawnmower-wise, it broke and we MacGyvered a solution that has improved it, because now you can go in reverse without turning the key (riding mower) and it doesn't turn off if you get up.

Our lawn is too small for a riding lawnmower to be honest.
Doesn't stop our neighbor with an even smaller yard from using the riding lawnmower and also mowing into our yard and actually destroying our grass.
Seriously I've mowed the property line like... twenty times, and each time he ignores it and mows his own way.
The funny thing is, the way he's mowing, he's actually screwing himself out of valuable back yard space.

Why don't you talk to him and and tell him what the problem is? Maybe he doesn't even realize he's annoying you.
Can't wait for the pics.
...I'm suddenly scared to understand why you did a double take.
Ironbite-and I'm not sure that I want to find out.
So I started 11th grade today, for the most part it's been...okay I got two classes I wanted to take Chemistry and American history, and one I didn't want to take...Algibra II i hate algebra.Algebra II is better than Geometry. Where do you live that school starts this early? I'm in NY and we start in September (going into senior year).
Yeah, public school started this week here in Seminole County.Wow. I was homeschooled from 7th grade until 10th (moved up here) and I completely forgot that.
When does your school year end? For college, ours starts the last week of August and ends the last week of April or first week of May.School usually the last week in May and lets back in around the first two weeks of Augest.
I don't know if you would count this as good,but I do since it saves me some trouble but my selective service card came today.Well, if they ever bring back the draft, just shoot your feet. It'll hurt like fuck but solve the issue.
...But I want to join the military.Okay, then join. I figured you wouldn't care too much about the card if you were joining anyways.

My new sick gaming rig will run Skyrim maxed at 60 FPS. And don't any of you nerds brag about how yours runs it at 80 FPS and it only cost you $5 and a stick of gum. The human eye can't tell the difference at those levels.

Wow, my situation is identical. I've had this laptop for two years, and while it'll run things like Sims 3 decently, it dies over things like Alice and won't even begin to run Witcher games. I can't wait to graduate and get a nice gaming PC.

Yeah, my laptop is pretty much like that. It was quite decent for a laptop two years ago, but it just can't compare to a desktop. I can run TES IV: Oblivion and Mass Effect on it at slightly less quality than on my xbox, but that's about it. I can afford to spend the money and get a gaming PC or build my own, but the reason I don't is that I worry that I'll either spend more time than I should gaming and this'll effect my grades/other academic stuff, or I won't let it affect my academics, but then I won't get to play as much and I'll have wasted my money as gaming progresses and my hypothetical gaming rig slowly grows obsolete.

I can run TES IV: Oblivion and Mass Effect on it at slightly less quality than on my xbox, but that's about it. I can afford to spend the money and get a gaming PC or build my own, but the reason I don't is that I worry that I'll either spend more time than I should gaming and this'll effect my grades/other academic stuff, or I won't let it affect my academics, but then I won't get to play as much and I'll have wasted my money as gaming progresses and my hypothetical gaming rig slowly grows obsolete.
At the bride's last birthday party, she served "unicorn jerky," which was bacon with chocolate frosting and rainbow sprinkles.That's awesome.
If I ever have a wedding, I want it to be just like that.
An MRI showed that my brain is normal and there are no tumors.
I get to spend the rest of the week with my brother and nephew and NOT my parents and siblings.
Finally got my tooth pulled. My jaw is slightly swollen and a bit tender, but it feels about a zillion times better than it did this morning. Plus, I got to keep the tooth, which is so gnarly and awesome looking. I'm tempted to post pictures of it in the disturbing images thread.
No, he's annoyingly conservative but he knows when to shut up. Plus, he's raising his son in a religion-neutral house, so mad props for that.I get to spend the rest of the week with my brother and nephew and NOT my parents and siblings.
Your brother isn't like your other fundie siblings then?

I'll post some tomorrow. The tooth had to be bisected in order to remove it, so I can even post some cross-section pics. It's actually pretty neat.

That alone makes him a vast improvement from your parents then, in my opinion.

That's excellent news. If you don't mind me asking, why were you expecting tumours?

I had one removed a few years ago, and we check annually to ensure it hasn't returned. Though now I get to wait 18 months between appointments.
Where in your mouth was the tooth? I've never seen one removed in that way (not that I've seen a ton removed anyway).
Where in your mouth was the tooth? I've never seen one removed in that way (not that I've seen a ton removed anyway).
It was the first molar on the bottom left side of my mouth (the one that comes right after the premolars). It's a large tooth with deep roots, so pulling it out the standard way is extremely difficult, particularly when it's not loose. Using too much force might have shattered it, which would force him to dig around for pieces of the roots and probably cause way more damage than necessary, so after a half hour or so of trying to slowly pull it out the standard way, he decided to slice it in half and pull it out one root at a time in order to minimize the trauma to the surrounding gums. Once he'd done that, it only took another 5 minutes or so to get the roots out, and a few minutes after that to put in a stitch and do the usual post-op stuff.
He did a good job. I've only had a bit of swelling & stiffness, and no visible bruising, so I'm pretty happy with the results.
Started setting up accounts on various social/music sites for my music. They're all bare bones right now, but they link to each other (mostly), and help ensure that I'll have the name I want on each site. Now I just need to copyright the name, put some music together to upload, and get some banners/pictures/artwork to make these things look pretty.Dude, you so need to make a thread for that here.
And my dad paid me to help him out with a project at work. Now I can get a few small things for school, and replace my old instrument cables.

I don't actually have anything produced or recorded at the moment. Recording, especially, is going to take quite some time, as I lack the hardware necessary to do so.
I have friends in both of my classes, so group work shouldn't be a major bitch. Hurraaaay.
Also, the professor for my operating systems class has given it an RPG theme, so we get to do quests in class and earn XP for them. Hey, it may sound lame, but at least it's interesting.
I went on GTA Forums.
Normally this wouldn't be interpreted as a "good" thing. But I do, because it's a place where I can go and suddenly be the smartest human being around.

Dennis Rodman not only went to North Korea, but praised Kim Jong-Un.How?
How is this a good thing?
It proves that the real world is in the Men In Black universe. And that's fucking cool.
So, I wake up early in the morning (5 am or something) and notice that there is something at the foot of my bed. Turns out my daughter had gotten off her bed at night and apparently wanted to come and sleep in my bed. Except that she fell asleep halfway through and only her upper body is on the bed with her legs hanging over the edge.
Luckily I didn't wake her up so I just picked her up and tucked her in her bed again.
I had the perfect response to a dumb, insensitive question: someone asked me (again) if I was disappointed that my hands are "too small". I looked at my hand for a second, then made a fist and said "Actually, I think they're just the right size to punch people who ask stupid questions." (I have no idea why I keep getting comments about my hands, because they're huge. Maybe people want to comment on my breasts but think that would be way out of line?)
Today I found a real life, physical copy of a Chick tract on my mom's car. This is the first one I've seen and it's so exciting.Which tract did you find?
My vegetable garden has produced delicious herbs, red potatoes, and sweet corn, and tonight I served a meal that, with the exception of a little salt, pepper, and oil, came entirely from my own garden, seasoning and all.Grow chilis. I've had great luck growing chili peppers in my garden.
I'm already trying to decide what to grow next year. I'm thinking popcorn, potatoes, garlic, and maybe strawberries.
Oh, and I'm also looking forward to burning what's left in the garden once I harvest the last of the corn. That should be fun.

Glorious day! The President of my college dropped in at the theater interest meeting on Tuesday, in order to give students a chance to talk to/recognize him. I told him about the chem outing debacle and asked for help. Today I found out that the offending student has been suspended (with a stern warning that any future "incidents" will probably get her expelled) and the teacher "supervisor" of the QSA (previously unmentioned because I had no idea there was a QSA supervisor, as he never showed up to any meetings) has been officially reprimanded.

I went to Busch Gardens yesterday and it was SO amazing. All the animals there were so happy, and I had exotic birds landing on me to eat the food I had.
Cool!I'm also the only person in my family with that mutation. My mom and sister's eyes are baby blue, my dad and little brother have hazel eyes, and my older brother's eyes are chocolate brown.
My eyes just tend to be blue and green hazel.
At least they're blue. My eyes are a boring shade of brown.Same I wish my eyes were a different color especially since green eyes apparently run in my dad's family.

Plain soya milk is disgusting, but I actually really like the chocolate flavoured soya milk. It has this sort of nutty aftertaste that's really nice.
So I think that soya ice cream would be nice as long as it's flavoured. Which it obviously will be, because even dairy ice cream has some kind of flavouring added to it.

He definitely sounds like a sensitive teenager if just staring at him could make him crap himself.
Staring works best if you could actually do some damage and you're trying to silently intimidate the other guy with that fact. A high school teacher, unless they whip off their belt, just isn't that scary.

Not all threat is physical
From how I interpret it, the Boston teacher was scary due to force of personality and a nasty habit of contacting parents for slight infractions.

To the one doing the showing, it may very well be perfectly platonic. To any viewers, however, it could easily, understandably, and automatically be sexualized because that's how we've been wired.

I was at a grocery store in my "Procrastinators Unite! ...Tomorrow" shirt and a little old man came up and told me how much he loved it.I'll comment on this later.
Since observation is a requirement for real thought, it follows that the ability to make connections and proceed from one thought to the next because of those connections is also a requirement. An example is, “This kitchen looks very nice. I didn’t expect such high-end appliances since the homeowner is currently a full-time college student. I wonder where they obtain the extra cash for it. Perhaps they have wealthy parents like my old friend Jim or are selling meth"
Ordered an inverted pentagram today. I FEEL LIKE SUCH A FUCKING REBEL!!
Also the side effect is that it'll be perfect for my halloween costume this year.
Most people I talk to tend to just call that a pentacle, to distinguish from the 'right side up' pentagram.
I got my pain shots today and my glasses fixed. That's as good as it gets around here.

Technically, from what I understand a pentacle is just a pentagram in a circle. Or something like that.
IDK, I don't use pentagrams and pentacles in my religion. And I've forgotten most of what I learned during my 'I'm gonna try out the edgy and restricted religions' phase.The only thing I remember from my "edgy restricted religions" phase is that an upside-down cross is NOT the/a satanic cross, it's St. Peter's cross. I tried to impart this information to someone else even more "edgy" than myself and got cussed out.

I'm not sure you have to go looking at non-Christian religions to figure that one out. Tho I find it odd how very few Christians know this bit of information whereas it is usually the non-Christians who know it.
I do like the Sigil of Lucifer tho. More people should use it.

Yeah, that's a ridiculously awesome sigil.
I'm not actually becoming a Satanist, though, so the sigil wouldn't mean as much to me.
Also searching for "pentagram" tends to get me mostly the same thing as "pentacles". So... let's hear it for confusing pagan markets?

I've been reminding my mother on every opportunity to use my preferred name, and I have also been neglecting to do my laundry. Today instead of shouting my given name to get my attention, she shouted "WILLIAM! COME DO YOUR LAUNDRY NOW OR I'LL THROW THAT STUPID LAPTOP OF YOURS IN THE GARBAGE!" Never before have I been so thrilled by threats of destruction of my personal property.
I got a free Lucario.
Ironbite-SUCK IT!
It didn't stick (see "Things That Annoy You" for just how 'unstuck' it is), but thanks for the encouragement. It makes sense, though, that a meltdown comes right after a breakthrough: she's forced to admit to herself that I really am William, but the cognitive dissonance caused by that realization makes her rethink the "vagina = girl, penis = boy" assumption she's held her whole life. Rather than act like an adult about it, she's being a fundamentalist baby with a persecution complex.I've been reminding my mother on every opportunity to use my preferred name, and I have also been neglecting to do my laundry.

Last night my mom was screaming about how if I "push my agenda" (read: ask for correct pronouns) my boss is going to be so grossed out he'll dump me in the middle of the holiday rush. As it turns out, I don't have to ask for correct pronouns - my coworkers use them anyway. Faith in Humanity +1.Hooray! Shows her what she knows about modern world and prejudices.
Also shows that I can pass as a young man, mezzo soprano be damned. I did fudge the truth by saying that I have a hormonal imbalance that made me "hit puberty at kind of a wonky angle", which is technically true.

I finally got my binder in the mail, and I'm already feeling better about my body. I feel so happy wearing it that I almost cried when I looked at my flattened chest in the mirror.
*high fives Indikins* Aww yeah, that's the best feeling in the world, innit?

I painted my nails nice and pretty for tomorrow(click to show/hide)
How the hell do you keep it so neat? I always got the nail polish all over my fingers when I was a girl.
How the hell do you keep it so neat? I always got the nail polish all over my fingers when I was a girl.
No idea to be honest... I am a terrible artist (drawing-wise) and my hands shake when I paint them. I guess I paint them so often I got used to it. I also use the good polish (L'Oreal: 140-pearly whites, 280-pink me up, and 540-jet set to Paris), which I'm sure helps.
Also, I didn't do it this time, I normally go back afterwards with a cotton ball of nail polish remover to clean up.
Speaking of which... well this doesn't really belong in this topic, but I can't very well go to another topic and go "Speaking of which", leaving everybody confused.
There was this one brand of salt and vinegar chips we found (we were looking for regular chips, not kettle-cooked) because Dad loves salt and vinegar chips. I've been known to enjoy them, too. So I tried it.
...I swear, my taste buds were actually melting that time. My tongue actually started to feel like it was actually experiencing chemical burns. It was worse than eating incredibly spicy food. I stopped eating after that.
WAY too much vinegar.
Really? You enjoy the sensation of your taste buds being so burned that they actually go numb temporarily?
Okay, I'll get back to you on that.
Well, as I edited into my previous post, it's Thin & Crispy

Have you tried adding salt and pepper?
Have you tried adding salt and pepper?
I don't think that adding salt and pepper will do much to change the taste of raw tomato. And the amounts needed to simply mask the flavor with salt and pepper would make me question why I'm eating a tomato in the first place.
Adding a bit of salt to sugary foods is considered mandatory in culinary schools. If you don't add that sprinkle of salt, even a chocolate mousse will have an odd "flat" finish to the taste.
All confectionary has a dash of salt. Adding salt to fruit goes back to the ancient Greeks, as far as a written account of it goes, and probably it goes back to cave man days. Try it!
I bought the Hyrule Historia book today. I hadn't intended on making any purchases aside from a new pack of socks, but in my browsing I found one in an aisle it didn't belong in and I just had to buy it.
It's a stunningly beautiful book. This is the kind of thing I went absolutely nuts for when I was a kid. The kind of thing that made me want to draw and stare at art all day, and inspired me deeply.
If any of you know a young person who is artistic and are wondering what to get them for Christmas, I really recommend Hyrule Historia. If they're anything like I was/am, their brains and hearts will explode with joy.
Friend got me a statue of Cernunnos for Yule. *u* I'm gonna properly open it on the Solstice.
But I had to check it over because the guy who delivered it basically chucked the package at the door.
I saw a couple of people who looked like they might be Muslims today while shopping.
She was wearing the headscarf that covered her hair, and he was wearing something that was kinda like.... I dunno, a fez but broader? I know that younger guys traditionally wear it in the middle east (and it certainly wasn't a freaking turban like the right wing thinks it is)
Aside from that, they were dressing "American". Pretty fancy, not too formal not too casual, shirts and pants (both of them)
I say this because the right wing has a twisted view of Muslims, and seeing these two people just doing their shopping and having an ordinary life made me smile.

FIRE HIS ASS.
It was the Al-Amira or the Shayla, I believe.
My confusion was more about the guy's hat because I don't know what it's called. I've seen it before, just never had a name associated with it. People make a bigger deal about how Muslim women are dressed than Muslim men.

Dongy's Gran sounds like a nice lady.She really is. I'm not sure she'll remember that conversation ever happened (Alzheimer's/dementia is a cunt) but it's nice to know that she understands some of what's going on in my life and doesn't think I'm crazy/confused/possessed ("I'm praying for you" is basically her catchphrase, so I know she's not being passive-aggressive like a lot of people who'd say that after finding out someone they care about is queer).
That'd be last name.

Yesterday, my boss told me not to mix as much bread from now on because things will be slow. Well, I ignored her orders because every time she says that, we run out of bread. Well, yesterday we ran out of most of the bread that she mixed (she rounded WAY down) and had to take some of my bread to bake later on. This means two things:
A. She was WRONG!
B. Since today is my day off, She had to play catch-up for herself.
Realizing that makes today's day off truly enjoyable.

Well, unless she's the kind of boss to get angry when she makes a mistake and takes it out on the worker who proved her wrong and left her to clean up her own mess. In which case you're fucked.
Posting here to repeat my quip about how you "got the drummer's drumstick."
I just got back from seeing one of my favorite bands live. Crazy show, so I'll give you the rundown.
1. I almost kicked this one guys ass for pulling my hair when he tried to jostle himself in front of me. He pulled my hair, I spun around and shoved him on his ass in front of his friend, and told him "pull my hair again, and you're dead." He behaved himself after that.
2. The one band on the card I did not know of stole it. Easily, they had the best energy of the band. Unfortunately, everyone was there fore the same band, so the band's energy didn't translate into the crowd. Probably for the best. But, I did discover a knew, kickass band.
3. I was literally so close, I touched my favorite band's lead singer. Literally, so close, she spit on me (of course by accident, but I didn't mind).
4. Afterwards, she shook my hand, and a few others in the front row.
5. As an encore, performed one of my favorite songs by them. The plus is some recent things in my life made me bond more with that song.
6. I got the drummer's drumstick.
7. I made some new friends.
I found out that there's not a warrant out for my arrest, so I'm celebrating with root beer floats and ME2. Also my mom says she's going to try calling me Will again, so more good news.
See the Things that Annoy you thread.
See the Things that Annoy you thread.
Do you mean the "My dad is kicking me out" part or the "My boss claimed that I stole shit and fired me" part?
Because neither of those is especially likely to result in Dodongo having a warrant for his arrest.

As I recall, the boss had a mate in the police, so you can probably guess how that turned out.
No, no, I thought I missed the date when I was supposed to call the courthouse and get my court date. The cop who gave me a citation said that if I didn't stay on top of things he'd gladly arrest me and let me spend a few nights in the county jail. I strongly suspect he said it just because he got a kick out of seeing me scared, but I didn't want to take any chances.

Query: did said dragon have four legs, or only two? If the former, then its a real dragon, if the latter, then its just a magical, fire-breathing pterosaur.
I was more or less joking. Two-legged dragons are more a stylistic peeve of mine than anything else.
The Dragons of Skyrim would like a word with you over what you consider their species to be.
Ironbite-would you like Force, Fire, Frost, or Acid?

After doing well my first semester, I have a chance of getting an internship with the 6th circuit court of appeals.

The same person told me if I wanted a district court gig, my shots were a "practical guarantee."

I now have three different people clamoring to get in my pants. I'm not sure how or why this happened, but to say I like the situation I'm in would be a grave understatement.When did you become an anime character?

They're very comfy pants. I like to sneak into your room at night and try them on.Oh, so that's what happened to my Batman pajama pants.
Ironbite-too creepy?
Despite being a legal adult and thus not needing to sneak out, I snuck out of the house to, ahem, spend time with Bitemark Guy. I continue to be surprised at how cuddly we are, but I'm not complaining. And you know what they say about guys who play musical instruments...
Well, when you're cruising on your 80' yacht in the Caribbean, have a drink of champagne for the little people who made it all possible.
:P
Chit, I wanna see when you first launch that 80 foot yacht off the trailer into Lake Monroe. Big enuff to splash a wake up into the street! Open her up and roar off down the St. Johns River, then cruise for girls off the beach. I'd ask to borrow it, but even Lake Ivanhoe here is just a bath tub for something that big...it'd get stuck under the I-4 bridge :P
Seriously, though, looks like this job is panning out into something useful for you, redneck boss or not. Cheers!
On that same note, that crappy videographer? I got to officially send him the kindly worded "You're fired" email.Getting to fire people is how you know you've truly made it.
Congrats, and I hope he's not the bitter type. He should have seen it coming, anyway. If he yells at you, just remind him he can get on unemployment. Watch his frown turn upside down...he actually does sound like the dysfunctional alkie type who would consider being on unemployment a nice little bingeing opportunity.

I'm pretty sure everyone with at least an okay sense of smell can smell the compounds released by the ground when water drenches it, but the rain itself is odorless unless you've got a bad pollution problem.

Right so can you map me out exactly how to get the electricity plasmid?
I finally got an interview scheduled.
Sadly, it's for McDonalds... but that's better than no job. And I'm going to try to eventually get some cashier experience while I'm there - it'll be invaluable for future jobseeking opportunities.

This morning I handed a cashier a coupon, and the cashier couldn't even read the coupon.
I have my second job interview of the week on Friday which is a record for me; usually if I get one interview in the span of a month I consider myself lucky. Unfortunatley, like Magus, it's for McDonalds but I mean, fuck, it's got to be better than being enemployed right?
The only problem is I have a 14 inch long beard, which may be an issue working in a food joint. I'm assuming they have beard nets though? I mean Sikhs traditionally are not alowed to cut their hair or beards (though many do these days), they couldn't just refuse them jobs on those gorunds because that'd be a form of religious descrimination, so surely they'll have beard nets for such an eventuality even if the Sikh population of Belfast is not exactly extensive.

Are you actually Sikh, or pretending to be Sikh?
Or just going to refuse to shave anyway and hope that they don't care?
Yeah but I'm still on my way

Makes me want a chicken mask, a letterman jacket, and a baseball bat.
I think it's a reference to Hotline Miami.
.....I think I'm gonna have to come over and...confiscate this coffee.
Ironbite-yes....that's a plan.
About 11 weeks ago I created a baby. So, post-day goodness.Congratulations.
Seems a bit late to be building an entire Harry Potter themed section of a theme park. At this point, it's safe to say that the series has well and truly faded into irrelevancy.

Yeah, which is why people everywhere are still talking about it, reading it to their kids, and making massive fan projects to it.

I have. Frequently, in fact. Probably because I hang around people who talk about it.
Just because you don't hear about things doesn't mean people aren't talking about them :P

Well, how about that, then? That's what I get for steering well clear of any and all fandoms.
I've dropped from 210 to 206 pounds and I'm going to a Pentatonix concert tomorrow!
Really really really good A Capella group.
Ironbite-they did a Daft Punk medley.

Finally applying for a new job. The application/interview process is soul-sucking as always, but 40 hours guaranteed with full benefits AND a raise will be so worth it. Also, I found out my wisdom teeth are coming in straight, which gives me the option of leaving them in rather than dropping a months' pay on removal surgery.

Mine appear to be coming in straight... well... if they were coming in at all. My upper wisdom teeth seem to just be hanging out in my maxilla. Not like they have anything better to do or whatever.
This was yesterday, actually, but I actually saw a hawk walking around next to our neighbor's garage.
At first I thought it was a cat (due to its camouflage) but it didn't look right... then I saw it move and saw its shape better.
It was definitely looking for something, but it eventually gave up and took off.
A webfic I thought was dead has apparently resurrected.Finally, a new chapter of My Immortal!
That's a fanfic, not a webfic. You fail, sir.Screw you, My Immortal is the single greatest novel ever written in this generation.
Huzzah I turned 19 today.Have you ever masturbated to furry pornagraphy?
...I feel if I answer that it will be used against me so I'm not going to say yes or no, make of that what you will.

This is probably the weirdest thing to happen on my birthday (the time I almost got in a plane crash notwithstanding) at least I got Oreo iceccream cakeDid you fuck it?

I realized that I know the history of the American Presidency better than I thought. If given any year in American history since the Constitution went into effect, off the top of my head, I can tell you who was President, what their party was, when they took office/were elected, and when they left office. As often as not, I can also say who they defeated, and about 1/3 of the time I can name the VP as well. I can usually spit out a few random facts about them as well.US History teacher/professor... That's about it. Still, it's a neat skill to have.
Does anybody know of a job in which this is... you know... useful?

This reminds me of the time I was trying to get my computer set up. When my install(s) worked differently from what I've expected I thought my computer was broken. All I really needed to do was change my computer's display and the problem was solved.
I'm sure having the wrong display was not your actual problem.

I've eaten alligator on a few occasions. I've also had rattlesnake once. They both tasted a lot like chicken. I wonder if the same is true of lizards...They taste a better than buck-toothed fish, that's for sure.

Welcome to my world still waiting to turn 20, cause at least I'll be a year away from being able to drink(also happy birthday hope you eat cake cause cake is the best.)Thanks!
LET'S GOT TO A STRIP CLUB!I would but I have work. Boo.
Just got myself employment for the first time since I moved down to Sacramento in October! Going to be working as an electronics tester and shipping agent for about 10 bucks an hour. It's not huge, but it's definitely a good enough wage for a guy like me.
Ironbite-I'm so excited!And you just can't hide it?
Working on a Minecraft mod, and things I'm making actually WORK! I HAVE A POTION THAT EXPLODES THINGS! I am a happiness pig.
I can't wait to see the difference when Stephen Colbert takes over for Letterman. I hope his sticks to his conservative roots & doesn't sell out. It will be refreshing to hear his monolog that will bash the liberals. Letterman turned into such a flaming liberal I couldn't believe it.

I got my new binder and my first packer today! I wasn't expecting them to arrive until this weekend, but apparently the US postal service was ever in my favor. Suck my silicone dick, dysphoria!
Yeah, it's definitely something I'm still getting used to. It's good for my ego but bad for nearly anything else. I'm just upset that I didn't make a "it's my dick in a box" joke before I opened the package it came in.Double post, woo!

I was just talking to my sibling about silicone dicks and how stupidly massive the packers are. They feel like they would make you look like the models on packages of briefs.

It'll be up here (http://youtu.be/dl1NxwIKJRk) at around 4:30PM Eastern Time. Uploading 2.75GB of video takes quite a while, lol.
Also note that the video is unedited. I don't have jack for editing software on this machine. The first two episodes are more or less me rambling while I do beginner shit; the series will operate on the assumption that those watching it are familiar with vanilla mechanics.
[ETA]
She's up! No. 2 should be along in around...20-30 minutes.

Whether he defrocked them or not, with all the billowing smoke and stuff the guy just looks demonic.Every picture. Every single picture.
Did he report them to the local authorities as soon as he heard about it? I bet he didn't.Shut up.
So if an organisation finds out an employee is diddling children, then it's totally okay with you if they simply fire the person without actually alerting the authorities?Did he report them to the local authorities as soon as he heard about it? I bet he didn't.Shut up.

Might as well use it. When we lost our contract, I did the same thing with my vacation days and sick hours. Used 'em up.
Actually there is an incident regarding ethics in gaming journalism but I'm not sure if GG has even noticed it: http://imgur.com/gallery/anq6b
Ever since, it seems at least, that they accepted Theodore Beale as their leader, they became worse than they were before.
And then Tim Schafer made a sock puppet joke and Goobergate went insane.

Strawman, huh, then why do you guys always target women for your little campaigns?
Oh, right, I'm supposed to ignore facts if they're not connected to the right people...
What's happened to those guys? I've only paid cursory attention to this but the names I've heard were Quinn, Sarkessian and Wu.
True, but you really, really need to be bothered by something these guys say, or they need to go after your little enclave with their oh so hurtful words.
Women? All they need to do is sponsor something social justice related or have some "ethical failing", and then its doxx city and death threat town.
^ Brianna Wu? Terrified by these pseudo-militants, but still doing her thing. To show they cannot terrify her into submission.
Zoe Quinn? Homeless, drove out of her home by the sheer volume of vitriol and hate.
Sarkeesian? Canceled a speech because a GG member decided to threaten to go Columbine. She is still going strong even still.
Say, isn't there a rule that anyone starting or sustaining any more FuckwitGate arguments would be banned? I could've sworn there was, though I suppose that could just be wishful thinking.

Oh my god, a dude just came by at school talking about the dangers of "Hookah." He was talking about hookahs as if they were drugs, and gave out the most hilariously leading survey I've seen in a very, very long time. Seriously, the Republicans would be proud at how leading the questions were. It took all my control to not bust out laughing at his spiel. Does he think people are THAT retarded, to not spot painfully blatant bullshit? I mean, COME ON, nobody uses fucking tobacco with a hookah, they use either weed or hash. I REALLY should've laughed at his spiel, I really wanted to, but that would've been rude, lol.

I'm glad you took my suggestion.And a fantastic suggestion it was. The trick was finding one for a decent price. They're illegal here, so finding one at all, much less for cheap enough that I'm willing to risk it being siezed by customs took a while.

I just found out that the worst employee at work quit! This guy managed to pick a fight (not physical, but fights are still fights) with every manager, alienate the entire kitchen staff, reduced an 18 year old waitress to tears (by yelling at another waitress), and earned the scorn and mockery of the drivers. To make matters worse, he was my direct supervisor. I got many write ups sticking myself between him and whoever he was pissing off. And he quit. Work will go so much better now.

I defend my thesis first thing tomorrow morning. If it is accepted, I will finally have a Master's Degree after having been stuck on this fucking paper for years.
On a less positive note, I received an email today explaining that my defense should consist of a 15-20 minute presentation (PowerPoint optional), when I had expected to spend 5-10 minutes on it. I just got home from work, and I present in 11 hours, so I should probably get on that.
My thesis defense was accepted. I got an A, which means that I have now completed the work for my M.A. with a 4.0.

It's cooled off a lot here in Arizona, and the weather is very nice and pleasant after all the summer heat.

Well, I was in the lobby at work, getting dishes to wash, absent-mindedly humming the MST3K theme, when this (fairly attractive) female customer about the same age as me started singing along to it. I paused, and turned to look at her in mild astonishment, when she scribbles down something on a napkin and slips it into my pocket. Turns out, its her number (duh, the fuck else would it be?). So that's a thing.

Then again, unless you live far from other houses guns are not a good option. Well, maybe if you shoot from the roof/window at birds on the ground... Then you could eliminate the dangers of over penetration or missing.
Art, can you get a BB gun where you are? That might work just as well (if not better)than a slingshot. Also I've found stray cays take care of local bird populations fairly well. Just remember, when you hit a bird with whatever you're using, finish it as quickly as possible.The main reason I went with a slingshot is because I can just use nice, free rocks as ammo. BB gun would almost certainly work better, but I'd have to constantly buy ammo for it, which would get rather expensive.
Or see about putting a replica raptor in the tree to scare off the magpies. Although I've no idea how expensive a good hawk decoy would be in Oz. You do have raptors, right? Or is it a marsupial nightmare shaped like a twenty pound flying squirrel with poison injecting talons and huge fangs?They're smart little fuckwits, so they'd figure out it's fake pretty quickly.

congrats random :)When you said "Jetpack Blues" I was expecting a very different song. Still, it's pretty good!
also, today, i did a thing. all tracks recorded by my friend, and all but "jetpack blues" were recorded today. i'll touch them up with lyrics asap.

My computer finally came back from the shop! About time, too. Efficient German postal service my ass.
Now I could work on schoolwork... or I could shitpost in the GG thread. Decisions, decisions...

Beautiful, fierce looking, and oh-so-silky soft and fluffy? That's what stuffed badgers are! How long are its claws?
Hey DC isn't a shithole.
Ironbite-it's an asshole
You....you are aware of where I live right?
Ironbite-right?
He's from NoVa, the DC burbs. And driving isn't too bad one you understand that everyone there is allowed to drive like they do in their home country.

Finally got a tuner and my warlock is now officially tuned! Now, the journey, as they say, truly begins.
Finally got a tuner and my warlock is now officially tuned! Now, the journey, as they say, truly begins.
depending on what you want to start to learn to play, keep in mind alternate tunings. if you want to start playing lead, e-standard tuning is the way to go, but if you want to work on rythm first, drop-d is very useful for progressing, because you get immediate results, thus keeping your morale up. once you're more comfortable, or if you use stronger string gauges for bigger sound, drop-tunings can expand your sonic horizon. i dropped down to d-standard years ago, and never looked back. something about that lower end really makes the guitar vibrate in satisfying ways.
stay away from open-tunings until you're comfortable with standard tuning, else you'll get lost later on. hell, i've been playing in open-c for the past 6 months, and last time i picked up a standard guitar, i felt lost for the first 15 minutes. would be worse for a newbie.

*eyes glaze over* I have a lot to learn, it'd seem, lol.
Aye, tis true. Though, for me, I find learning theory on its own...I don't wanna necessarily say "useless," but largely unhelpful if I can't apply it to something at the same time. Its one of the reasons I picked up code in the first place, anything I learned about I could go out and almost immediately apply it to something. Threading? I can pop it into a unique code generation algorithm to increase performance. Reflection? Its basically the crux of my entire big project at work.
I had my hair colored blond today.
Rather unusual, but enjoyable experience.

I just read someone claiming that their headmate is a Galaxy on Tumblr.
Wonderful place.
I lifted 195 pounds the other day on Bench Press - 10 pounds heavier than my bodyweight.
I lifted 195 pounds the other day on Bench Press - 10 pounds heavier than my bodyweight.
That's nearly 88.5kg right? That's pretty impressive, that's the weight of a reasonably heavy fully grown man.. I can't bench very much, but I do have bad shoulders (in the case of my right shoulder, let's just say alcohol and bouncy castles don't mix). That and I'm fat and lazy and just generally physically kind of crap but it's mostly the shoulders. Ahem. Oh and I'm shit at deadlifts coz I have a peculiarly weak back for some reason.
I did used to be able to bicep curl 45kg (I mean doing multiple reps and sets, it wasn't my maximum one-off lift) but then I got fat and old.
Edit: 45kg is slightly over 99lbs.

I also recently upped that max to 205 pounds on bench.
Also managed to barbell curl 100 pounds 5 times.
I just found out that a university in North Carolina and the natural science museum in the same area teamed up to build a big new fossil lab, and they're looking to hire someone with experience in fossil preparation as a permanent, full-time lab assistant. Requirements were a high school diploma with a year of experience in paleontology, with a bachelor's degree preferred. Sent off the application today; hope this works out.
I take it your neighbours have some nice stuff, eh?
Well now this is your chance to find out.

Congratulations. Always good to start with a win and particularly for a worthy client. You must be feeling elated and relieved at the same time. While it's great to win for people who need it, it can be terribly stressful as there is a much greater emotional investment.

It's also a great vindication having sat through law school that those years weren't wasted and you've found something that you actually want to do. Much better than the crushing realisation that all those years of study and stress have put you in line for a job that you'd rather not do.
drinking tends to go hand and glove with the profession. For celebrations, commiserations and dealing with stress
US societal norms with drinking are weird. Most of the people I know would be considered alcoholics by Americans. I tend to take an Omar Khayyam approach to drinking. Enjoy yourself - pop some champagne corks.
Nothing as cool as that, but I just stomped the shot out of some dudes in pokemon.
6-0'd a guy with my Latias, managing to calm mind up a lot on a mismatch. Then a really good close match where I won with my Swampert. The other ones were just ragequits to my stall duo of Chansey and Ferrothorn (all of these were seperate teams, except the duo). The last quit was especially funny, as the guy said, and I quote, "Man I was trying to have fun and you bring out this shit?"
Then Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire came out and changed that like the Fire Nation attacking.
I have a girlfriend now!Congrats!

She's going to start craving for strange foods at strange times. This is often used as a joke but it really does happen as her body realizes that she is going to need ingredient X for the fetus and she will subconsciously start craving for some food that contains it. Things like getting a craving for beer are not unheard of (although substituting beer with some other non-alcoholic food that contains similar stuff is for the best.)
Try to take a good nights sleep now. After the MIRACLE OF BIRTH it is going to get much harder.
...Although it's not as bad for the father as it is for the mother so for everyone's sake try to make sure that she gets a rest every now and then. Also you need some rest every now and then. In fact, if you can occasionally hand over the kid(s) to grandparents try to do that and get some time with your wife(? I don't actually remember if you've said you're married or not.) because that will be important for the relationship.
But for that last bit don't get your hopes up for. After giving birth the mother's hormonal balance is geared up for taking care of the baby and generally speaking sex or even intimacy may not be high on priority list.
...Despite these warnings I really do wish to congratulate you and remind you that children really are wonderful creatures it is just that at some point the parents will feel the exhaustion (it took two months for me for the first time I realized that I got a pang of annoyance and felt bad about it for a while.)
Nah, I didn't...wanted some time to cool down after it happened last Monday. Basically, the President of the company was a retard and cost us a lot of money, which resulted in massive staff cuts. I still want to strangle the fucker since he was told, repeatedly, over the course of months that it'd happen, though. But, I'm not letting it bring me down. Getting depressed achieves nothing. Instead, I'm letting my anger and outrage at the bastard give me energy to do something constructive. I'm an angry person by nature and its high time I use it to my advantage.Ah fuck, so sorry to hear that. Here's some useless lip service: somewhere in an alternate universe, your company prez is the only one who got laid off, thereby saving everybody else's job...and the company. Lucky for alternate universe you. Sigh. Whelp, apply for unemployment, build that game and let's hope it can make it onto steam greenlight or whereva you'd want to market it.

My teacher told me my translation work would bring joy to a lot of people, and the next day I asked him if I could possibly get a job in the strange hodgepodge editing/translating/proofreading thing I've been doing for him. Not only did he say yes, but he pointed me into the right direction by suggesting I contact tourism businesses (they'll be needing international marketing, after all) and said he'd vouch for my skills if I decided to apply for a job there! Even though my studies are going through an all-time low in both comprehension and motivation, I'm not a worthless waste of space! I have a future that doesn't involve living with my parents and mooching off them until kingdom come! Holy fucking shit, it feels unreal even when I'm typing it, I'm fucking laughing in ecstatic disbelief, but it's happening!
...even though I know that I still need to do the actual applying, pay back student loans, find an apartment... but somehow, I believe it'll all work out! I HAVE A FUTURE!

Wasn't the job offer in North Carolina? She's probably not keen on that, seeing as she's suffering oppression overload all ready.
Well, moving far away is still a big decision so I can easily see that she would want to think about it for a while. After all, this is a big commitment too and thinking about moving away (and pondering all the possible places to go) is not the same as being told that now there is a chance to move away to a specific place. It may be that the reality has sunk in and all the fears are coming in now.
My relationship advises suck but I would just reassure her of my support and wait for her to make up her mind for a while. Whether this will lead to a breakup or moving together to California trying to rush things or blackmail her can be harmful How long can you wait until giving a reply? Can you move first and have her move in afterwards?
Isn't today Cinco de Mayo? I wish we celebrated that here in Australia I could do with some tequilaNo.

If what I know of anime is correct, "testicles" would be one of the most useful Japanese words to know. Surpassed only by "schoolgirl" and "tentacles".
Not sure where that might come in handy, but whatever floats your boat Sleepy. (as an aside where do you learn Kanji I've been meaning to learn Japanese for a trip I'm going on in 2020.)

OK because I saw this on facebook a little while back. Was Trump on WWE? I saw a match where Stone Cold Steve Austin was the referee and then at the end Trump shaved Vince McMahon's head. Is this a recent thing?
Not so much good as it is curious...
I'm taking my first foray into LINQ and PLINQ (http://pastebin.com/4fiY7Fsv) (think SQL for code...more or less), and I found that my little program that rolls a bunch of dice and filters results vs. a target value (roll >= target) takes longer when the filtering is done in parallel (PLINQ) than when done sequentially (regular LINQ). I've tried just about every permutation of the code of which I can think, and the results are all the same: dice rolling works best in parallel, but the filtering works best sequentially. Maybe if I try using the LINQ methods instead of keywords, I'll get different results, but still, this is most odd...most odd, indeed.
[ETA]
Nope, even using the methods, its still slower. The hell?
Speaking of new life....I GOT A NEW COMPUTER!

I'M DONE! My last final was done just over an hour ago. It was calculus and it was suspiciously easy, even after triple-checking my answers. I suspect that the professor took it easy on us since he's retiring once he posts our grades.

I just learned to read hiragana in under 2 days, in prep for a trip next year. I still go blank on a character now and then, and confuse one character for a similar one, and I'm reading syllable-by-syllable rather than just looking at a word and knowing instantly what it says like you do when reading your own language. But considering just over a day ago it was all meaningless lines on a page to me and I was pretty sure I was incapable of learning it I think I've done alright. I don't speak Japanese so I don't actually know what the words I'm reading mean but it's a start lol.
Oh and even though I can identify hiragana characters and know what syllable it makes I can't do the reverse - IE if you asked me to write the character for "se", for example, I'd struggle. But show me "se" and I can tell you it is "se". Don't ask me to explain how that's even possible but it is. But I figured I probably don't need to know how to write characters for a simple holiday, being able to read them will be more important, so I'm not too bothered. If I was moving there permanently that'd be different.
Hurray for hiragana! I haven't been to Japan myself, but there's also actually a ton of katakana that you'll see on a daily basis in the cities (especially on menus and stuff) so people also recommend learning that as well, if you're up for it. Especially since it lets you sound stuff out, i.e., if you see チキン on a menu, it's gonna be chicken.
I joined a gym. Time to do something healthy for myself. I'll swim and lift and set a good example for my kids. Plus if in to strike fear in the hearts of future boyfriends, I need to look like I can back it up if I have to.
Crap! That's right. It doesn't count unless you post gym selfies.

I've played the first two zones of Sonic Mania, and Jim Sterling is 100% correct about it. Its not just the Sonic game that the franchise desperately needed, its the sequel Sonic 3 & Knuckles never got. Its pretty, its simple, and its fun. Sega, take note: the indie scene knows how to make a Sonic game a hell of a lot better than Sonic Team ever fucking did.

Marshall was the author of the infamous bathroom bill, for those who didn't know (like me).
Maybe this should be in the "Politics and Government" section, but this is a good thing that happened today.
I think he meant that the same state had previously voted for the bathroom bill guy and now voted for the first trans legislator showing that the people have changed their minds.
Getting back into working out and writing after a long hiatus. It feels good to finally be working towards something other than school, again.
Finally changed my legal name and gender!
Just made the most epic chicken, tomato, and onion soup. Put a table spoon of butter in a pot, melt it, crush about 3 cloves of garlic into the pot and add 2 onions sliced into thin crescents. Let those go on medium heat til just soft and throw in about 20oz of tomato puree with about half that in beef broth. Add about a teaspoon each of salt and pepper, along with a sprig's worth of fresh thyme and a mixture of dried rosemary, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes. Bring that to a boil and cover, letting it simmer on a low heat for about 5 minutes. Pop in two star anise into the pot and let it go for another five minutes. After removing the star anise, add to the soup base 2 breast's worth of cooked chicken chunks that have been combined with some salt, pepper, and about half a teaspoon of black sesame oil. Let it sit for a few minutes to cool off and enjoy one hell of a nice, thick soup.
Source of the recipe: right outta my ass.

Lotta good shit in the past couple of weeks. Got married and am finally in an actual house for the first time in...6 years, I think. I finally have more than 1 square meter of counterspace! And a grill! And a fecking flat-top stove! And my desktop's got a temporary setup with the old desk til we can get something a bit more snazzy and permanent. It feels so weird, having been without it for the past couple weeks, to actually sit down and look at a fixed screen that's larger than my tablet and closer than my TV.
