Fall thoughts, like a leaf on the wind

[Morgan Evanar]

I want to post but I have no idea what to do.


Whatevs.

[Wyl Staedtler]

I want to post but I am a bum living out of an American Tourister carry-on and hiding nuts and pashminas in a backpack :(

Whatevs.

[Ilias Nytrau]

I want to post, but...

...oh, well... perhaps this weekend?

I'm certain I fucked up pretty good in one or two places on that midterm...

[Crusader]

I want to post, but...

...I am just too occupied being awesome. J/K

I just found out that I get a 1.5% more on my bonus from now on... I am such a corporate whore.

[Eleven]

One day you will post, Peter.

One day we will convince you to roleplay.

One daaaay... :shakefist

[Ilias Nytrau]

I had better not be getting sick. Sadly, that's probably the way things are headed.

And I haven't gamed or posted in over a week.

So... tired...

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

So many ideas and plans, but so jumbled in my brain at the same time.

[Crusader]

So Steam Punk is set in an alternate victorian era where people have overcome most of life's problems with pneumatics/steam and gears.

So why is there no Fluid Punk that is set in the Edwardian Era where people have overcome most of life's problems with hydraulics and electric magnets?

[John Glayde]

^ I think that would probably still get called "Steam Punk".

It's one of those things where there's an accurate definition, and then a more vague definition that is commonly used. Most people would refer to "Steam Punk" as anything that happens before "Diesel Punk" (1930s-40s stuff like the Rocketeer, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, etc).

A lot of Nikolai Tesla style stuff gets called Steam Punk, but that's all electromagnets and stuff.

[Droo]

I'd like to see a piece of legislation passed which would enable the British people to vote utterly stupid people off the island, marking the first time something good ever came from reality TV. And the first to go would be Nick Griffin. Why is that man still even here!?

[Chrysothemis]

Who *is* that, Droo?

<rant>And frankly, I'd like to be able to do the same here. Can I start by voting out the freaking moron who couldn't park in ONE space at the supermarket even though the parking lot WAS ENTIRELY EMPTY AT 9:30 AT NIGHT?! For fuck's sake, he parked so poorly I should have taken a pic except I didn't have my damn phone. My 89 year old grandmother could park better than that.

/rant
</rant>

[Ilias Nytrau]

So, tickets for our Christmas break flights are booked... and it just reinforces that we really should be buying them in, oh, August. :|

[Morgan Evanar]

Status of week: crap. Weekend outlook: much better.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Who *is* that, Droo?


He's a repugnant excuse for a human being. A racist, homophobe, Holocust-denying moron who thinks that Britain has always been "British" and that anyone who isn't "British" (white) shouldn't be here. Somehow, he has ended up a member of the European Parliament.

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I'd like to see a piece of legislation passed which would enable the British people to vote utterly stupid people off the island, marking the first time something good ever came from reality TV. And the first to go would be Nick Griffin. Why is that man still even here!?

I dunno, the last time you lot tried that, the nation of Australia happened. Do we really want to do it again?

[Captain Untouchable]

^ If we hadn't created Australia, who would work in our bars?

[Morgan Evanar]

I just went kayaking through bio luminescent plankton and non-stinging jellyfish. It was absolutely incredible.

[Sansa]

Oh man, that sounds completely awesome.

[Ilias Nytrau]

When I drink, I sometimes say completely idiotic things.

e.g. "I'm like Schrodinger's drunk. There may or may not be alcohol in me."

[Dasquian Belargic]

My brain can't handle coffee of this magnitude

[Brenneka Gavran]

When I drink, I sometimes say completely idiotic things.

e.g. "I'm like Schrodinger's drunk. There may or may not be alcohol in me."Or my favorite from last night, when you were relatively alcohol free..."The beer isn't for the walnuts."

ALSO...my IT class is wickedly easy, but this past week part of our assignment was to watch this video, which was wicked cool. I need to share, as I've been all geeky over it for the better part of an hour:

http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/john_underkoffler_drive_3d_data_with_a_gesture.htm l

[Morgan Evanar]

Oh man, that sounds completely awesome.
It was. You could swirl your hand in the water and it would leave blue-green particle (plankton) trails.

[Droo]

"Man remanded on Cardiff van death"

The title of an article from the BBC news website. Initially I was confused and thought it made no sense at all. Then I realised how cool Cardiff van Death was for the name of a Bond villain. :uhoh

[Dasquian Belargic]

Sad times.. Halloween is almost upon us and I have no plans :(

[Miranda Tarkin]

(taps fingers)

So Samantha... when are you making your grand entrance?

[Zeke]

Handed in my notice. God, I've been wanting to do that for so long.

[Captain Untouchable]

"Hey, Jason. Would you be up for wearing a kilt at the wedding?"

It's like they don't even know me. :colbert

[Ilias Nytrau]

So, business law midterm this morning. After that, I would LOVE to go home and just sleep until the rest of the day vanishes, but I still have two classes after that and two quizzes due tonight. |I

[Charley]

A BLT with wasabi mayonnaise? Get in!

[Ilias Nytrau]

A BLT with wasabi mayonnaise? Get in!

Nnnngh, I want. Yumyum.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Such a waste of my time.

[Dee]

FABULOUS. My mother is here.

Good, because I haven't seen her in almost a year. Not so good because she has this lovely habit of monopolizing all of my time and being a PAIN in the ass.

But she's my mom ^_^ :dance (and frankly, I had to get it from somewhere :D)

[Park Kraken]

I so want to rant about politics, politicians, and people who don't know the first thing about either acting as if their opinions are superior enough to everyone else's that they get to call everyone stupid, but I so don't want to bring politics into one of the few online havens that is devoid of that topic.:whaa

[Skylar Trezen]

I want chocolate in the worst way right now :(

[Vince]

Sorry for not posting at all. Standard excuses here, plus I've been getting tired of bachelorhood; so some serious field playing has ensued. All I'm getting is annoyed though. No luck here, I suppose.

Is there a way to shoot the shit with y'all that doesn't require a completely working computer? My phone's crap, but I suppose facebook messenger's not out of the question if nothing else.

[Morgan Evanar]

I'm on Facebook and Google pretty much 24/7.

[Charley]

Same here. Hit me up any time. At worst, I wait till my next break to reply

[Dasquian Belargic]

Beware the court of owls, that watches all the time, ruling Gotham from a shadow perch, behind granite and lime. They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed, speak not a whispered word of them or they'll send the talon for your head

:ohno

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

So I have a new cat.

[Ilias Nytrau]

So since last night I have made lasagna, pastry dough for a wild mushroom quiche, chocolate chip cookies, and french onion soup.

I should actually make the quiche, however. :eee

[Banner Laverick]

I might thrown out of my house (where I pay rent and shit) because of a tumblr post where I called my sister a SWEAR WORD. :|

So if I fall off the face of the Earth, it's because I'm homeless XD

[Glen Fiddich]

Today I realised that General Chang from Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country and Captain von Trapp from the Sound of Music are the same actor.

:cyduck

[Crusader]

I am uncle 2.0 now. Yay!

[Park Kraken]

Congrats on the Unclex2.

Had I really forgotten what it was like to rain?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I am uncle 2.0 now. Yay!

Congratulations!

[Dee]

WTF, snow?!

Ohhh...THERE you are, winter, you damn bitch.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

My husband's 21 year old niece is pregnant again. This will be number 3. Oy vey. She has chosen the hardest road in life.

I guess she's my niece too ;)

[Banner Laverick]

Everyone is coming down with a case of the BABIES!!!!! :uhoh

[Vince]

God damn it. My self-confidence has taken a nose dive. And what's worse, I can't be angry about it. I am, but I really have no right to be.

[Dee]

Would it help to know that I positively adore you? *hugs*

[Captain Untouchable]

Every now and then, a new technology (http://gizmodo.com/5958721/i-really-want-a-credit-card-with-a-lcd-screen-and-touchscreen-keypad) comes out that reminds me that we're living in the future.

It's a credit card, but it has buttons and a screen on it, and is still the thickness of a credit card. :cyduck

Sure, it's only for generating an authentication password... but it's only a matter of time before the world gets top-up cards and travel cards that will show you how much balance you have left.

[Banner Laverick]

^ and people will still ask cashiers to check it because they can't figure out that technology.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

Love when my colleagues have discussions about doing things for an event or something with the students when I'm not around to be included in the discussion, and then get pissed off when they ask me what I'm doing with my group and I go "what are you talking about?".

Maybe you should try including me... Just a thought.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Oh my goodness, oh my damn.

[Captain Untouchable]

I was going to play computer games. Instead, I'm watching American football. God damn you, Charley. :shakefist

[Sanis Prent]

Fuck everything / everyone good night / good luck don't wait up on me

[Morgan Evanar]

I am pretty handy with a bow and arrow.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Booze from a jug. Good times.

[Vince]

Please please please

[Dee]

Owww. Just...oww. :(

[Morgan Evanar]

New Soundgarden sounds like Soundgarden!

[Glen Fiddich]

Oh, for fucks sake. Twelve weeks of waiting for the DWP to process my claim, and I receive a letter asking me to fill in the stupid amount of paperwork again because they fucking lost it. AGAIN.

:verymad

[Captain Untouchable]

Holy shit, he was Doctor Frankenstein all along! :cyduck

Holly is probably the only person who has any idea what I'm on about... :uhoh

[Lilaena De'Ville]

James Whale directed the Frankenstein movie. :D

[Captain Untouchable]

In hindsight it seems obvious, but I totally didn't see it coming at all!

Also... the same dream? And from the look on David's face, I'm guessing Snow had the same one as well... :ohno

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I still haven't watched yesterday's episode. Maybe they'll expand on the red room dream in it?

[Captain Untouchable]

I just did, and they do. :ohno

[Darth Turbogeek]

New Soundgarden sounds like Soundgarden!


Been away too long

[Reginald Nil’vak]

Holy shit, he was Doctor Frankenstein all along! :cyduck

Holly is probably the only person who has any idea what I'm on about... :uhoh

What was that? :smug:

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Need baby pictures from Dani!!

:eee

[Captain Untouchable]

What was that? :smug:

You have a power greater than magic, alright... but it's not science. :ohno

[Selinica Miriya]

School can lick my sweaty left testic--

...oh, wait. Don't have those. Well, projects and exams it is, then. -_-

I miss writing. :cry

[Kyran O'Hurn]

It's not all about you. Sometimes people are doing things that are more important than you and you need to calm the hell down and wait your turn.

[Crusader]

Drawing changes do not concern me, Admiral. I want that weekend, not excuses!

[Dasquian Belargic]

Well, that was unexpected.

[Sanis Prent]

A license to sell mortgages isn't quite a license to kill, but its still pretty cool

[Captain Untouchable]

Well, that was unexpected.

Spanish Inquisition?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Not unless the Spanish Inquisition involved visiting a casino at 4am!

[Dee]

I would listen to the phone book being read daily if it was David Attenborough reading it.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Is it weird that I mostly watch Attenborough as a way of lulling myself to sleep? I find the documentaries he makes fascinating, but I only ever see three quarters of them :lol

[Dee]

Not at all, Jenny. Happens to me too. It's just morning and I'm having coffee at the moment, otherwise I'd be napping by now.

However, he did just say "wild ass" several times and I snorted my coffee :D

[Wyl Staedtler]

Even though I travel a lot for work/out of habit, there are certain moments where it hits me that I am somewhere other than home. This morning, sitting on a bench up in Piazza Michelangelo in the depths of giardino rose with a cafe mochaccino ('little moroccan'), looking out over Firenze with the Duoma peeking above the rooftops and church bells echoing across the river while leaves fell and the air settled at that perfect crispness that comes before an intolerable chill? Totally one of them. :love

[Banner Laverick]

Is it weird that I mostly watch Attenborough as a way of lulling myself to sleep? I find the documentaries he makes fascinating, but I only ever see three quarters of them :lol

I watch Planet Earth (not the American dubbed one, because...no.) before I go to sleep, and I think I've seen maybe half the series?


FYI, don't watch the "Caves" episode while trying to sleep. Creepy silkworms and giant piles of poo = not good pre-bed watching.

[Sanis Prent]

Pawl I went to South Bend and I pissed in that holy water Roll Damn Tide

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Where has my life gone? What DAY is it?

*looks at Tyria* oh yeah... :|

At least I spend my evenings as Jennifer Hale again, right? Right??

*weep*

[Vince]

Taught a huge group of Jewish kids some single time swing last night, and had lots of fun.

Only downside: the girl I asked to go with me couldn't make it. I don't seem to be having much luck on the woman front lately.

And I realized that I don't have any suspenders. I plan on rectifying that soon.

[Captain Untouchable]

I have found far too many tasty takeaways near me. :ohno

[Sanis Prent]

That isn't a problem

[Captain Untouchable]

It is as far as my bank balance is concerned.

Being exhausted all the time, getting someone else to cook my food is really easy to justify... it's just not so easy to finance, unfortunately.

[Serrena Alcine]

Why do I have the overwhelming urge to download a new game for my XBOX when I haven't even finished Dante's Inferno yet?

Hard to resist the urge to shoot things :ohno

[Captain Untouchable]

Just been wandering around the house for twenty minutes with a song stuck in my head, deeply worried that it was Taylor Swift or Miley Cyrus or something like that.

Eventually realised that it's Lady Antebellum. Is that a socially acceptable music band pop group thing? :uhoh

[Lilaena De'Ville]

It's country/pop. I like some of their songs v:)v

[Sanis Prent]

Country/pop is not acceptable, no. Country music should be growly, gritty, and smell like whisky and cigarettes

[Captain Untouchable]

Ah, but is country/pop necessarily bad country... or is it just better-than-average pop?

[Sanis Prent]

It's worse than the worst of either category

[Lilaena De'Ville]

It's better than average pop music, IMO. I read something the other day that said that today's pop music is mostly dance now, while country is sliding into the pop bracket. It was pretty interesting!

[Kyran O'Hurn]

I'm seriously just mentally drained. Could totally use a day or two off... too bad won't be getting any until New Years.

[Captain Untouchable]

Dear Jenny,

I am now addicted to tumblr, and have an entire bookmark folder that is just hundreds of animated gifs of my image claims.

Damn you. :shakefist

[Banner Laverick]

^Why don't you make an account and reblog all the pictures you like onto it? Saves you from having all those bookmarks.

Maybe one day you can have a blog with 20,000+ posts like mine >_>;

[Captain Untouchable]

Because then the images wouldn't be categorised by character, mood, etc. :uhoh

[Wyl Staedtler]

Bought Christmas tights (in a beautiful shade of red) and some leg warmers and a beret. Now all I need to do is get a new black skirt that fits and I'm set for some merry nights out at pubs!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I just got a new winter duffel coat... lets go for a pint!

[Banner Laverick]

Because then the images wouldn't be categorised by character, mood, etc. :uhoh

Damnit why is there no like button on fans so I can like this status Jenny?

[Morgan Evanar]

I have bludgeoned the error log into a gzip so that this won't happen again for several months. Before that, I'll find a solution.

[Dasquian Belargic]

This time next week (...plus a couple hours) you will be here and we can have that pint!

[Wyl Staedtler]

Fuuuuuckmyeahhhhhh. I have been working hard to rid switzerland of gluchwein and chestnuts. Every day i'm drinkin' yo. Tomorrow hike nd then mondayb i will get you GIANT EDIBLE MONIES.

[Morgan Evanar]

Edible money??

[Pierce Tondry]

Chocolate coins?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Omg edible money :3:

[Captain Untouchable]

GIANT chocolate coins?! :ohno

It's not Christmas without them. :3:

[Carré Inirial]

Want to post. Don't even know where to start. Overwhelmed a bit. Rough few weeks.

*fetches Petunia for a kitty snuggle*

[Dasquian Belargic]

GIANT chocolate coins?! :ohno

It's not Christmas without them. :3:

I know right?

I flippin love chocolate money

[Crusader]

Is it just me or have relationship updates on facebook become the declarations of war in our time.

"OMG friend X has set his status from married to single get the pitchforks and start the T-Shirt printing machines. It is time to pledge our allegiance to "Team X"!"

[Dasquian Belargic]

I just delete anyone whose statuses are like that. Cannit be bothered with it.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

Anger is turning into apathy, and I would rather anger... at least I would know that I still cared.

[Captain Untouchable]

Is it just me or have relationship updates on facebook become the declarations of war in our time.

"OMG friend X has set his status from married to single get the pitchforks and start the T-Shirt printing machines. It is time to pledge our allegiance to "Team X"!"

They're about as annoying as those vague, passive-aggressive "You think you know someone and then they go and do this!" type statuses, where the person hopes someone will ask what happened so they have an excuse to rant about it. :grumble

[Lilaena De'Ville]

A Google spider is reading Original Sin. With, I imagine, this expression on its face : :whaa

Cold Days Cold Days Cold Days




Wish I had $ :(

[Morgan Evanar]

Reasonably priced but still more than I wanted to spend on a car radiator, which was $0.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Wonderful. Walking into a 'waaaah mark of the beast microchips' conversation at break is funfunfun. I want to tear my ears off sometimes.

[Dee]

Step one, find a hockey stick.

Step two, liberally apply found hockey stick to NHL owners and players until agreement is reached.

Step three, use hockey stick to beat life back into submission.

[Morgan Evanar]

Today was awesome, hooray 9-5.

[Dee]

Gotta relate this conversation with my mom...

(while riding in the truck on the way to pick up my new bed, with coffee)

Dee: There's only one cupholder that's free. Use that one.
Mom: I can't find the hole. I can't...find...oh. Found it. It slid right in.
Dee: *snorts coffee & can't breathe for several minutes & turns a dozen shades of red*
Mom: What's wrong? Are you alright?
Dee: *nope, still in hysterics*
Mom: So which exit is Creepy's again?

I love my mother...seriously. She's a priceless gem. We went to a Sleepy's warehouse to pick up my new mattress in lieu of paying $130 for a delivery & pickup of the old one.

My sides still hurt.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Step one, find a hockey stick.

Step two, liberally apply found hockey stick to NHL owners and players until agreement is reached.

Step three, use hockey stick to beat life back into submission.

THIS. THIS THIS THIS. A MILLION TIMES THIS. :shakefist

[Captain Untouchable]

I had surprise Chinese again.

Well, okay. The Chinese wasn't a total surprise. But the fact that I ordered crispy duck pancakes to go with it was. :dance

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Karen has moved to Los Angeles? :3

I need to find her and teach her the ways of Ginger survival in this land lol

[Crusader]

^^And by that you mean the correct application of sunblocker?

[Garrick Kane]

If anyone needs a demonstration on how to apply sun lotion to Karen Gillan, I would be more than happy to volunteer.

[Pierce Tondry]

If anyone needs a demonstration on how to apply sun lotion to Karen Gillan, I would be more than happy to volunteer.

She's Scottish. I've assessed the threat and it's too high.

[Captain Untouchable]

She's Scottish. I've assessed the threat and it's too high.

She's not only Scottish - she's from Inverness, born just down the road from where I was.

The Greater Spotted Ginger Scot is less hostile towards creatures that originate from it's natural habitat. ;)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

What is with people not being on AIM? Huh? What is up with that?

[Captain Untouchable]

I'm on AIM. Am I not people? :colbert

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I'm not on AIM...

Because I'm too busy slaying dragons. :colbert

...but some people know where to find me. *sneaky ninja time!*

[Vince]

I'm using mainly texting and Facebook messenger to talk to people now; my phone doesn't have the internal memory to run AIM on top of a couple other apps.

[The Boy]

Kickin it in the bar here in AZ. Thought I'd stop in and say Roll tide.;)

[Crusader]

Roll Tide!

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Hahahaha yeah. Drinking at a dirty santa party, and wouldn't you know it, there's a German fellow here :p it's somewhat but not the same as a nerd event :D

[Wyl Staedtler]

England you are filled with delicious things like cider and yorkshire puddings and weirdly endearing things like random crazy bastard surfers and gorgeous landscapes and castles and the friendliest people ever, seriously, even your bus drivers are hospitible. I heartily approve.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

^ Still jealous.

Still sick too.
Lost 5 pounds in 3 days by doing NOTHING...I'd be happy except it's not healthy loss ._.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

You are supposedly the "Lead Teacher", so why don't you start acting like it and stop acting unprofessional and then bitching about how others are not professional.

Maybe instead of getting angry at the people who are trying to work through the problem you go and talk to the person who caused there to be a problem in the first place.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Where is my cold weather :mad

[Dasquian Belargic]

Where is your cold weather, you ask? It's right here, Christin, in Newcastle. We are currently wearing fraying cocktail coats and taking refuge in a Starbucks before the concert. I imagine Bear Grylls will pass by before too long, doing a survival special with David Attenborough narrating. :(

[Crusader]

Have fun at the concert you two.

[Banner Laverick]

It's 14 degrees here and raining. We had snow like, 3 days ago and this evening it's supposed to get even warmer.

Then it all goes to shit and is back down to 2 degrees tomorrow. :| Make up your mind, weather.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I just made a jealous face in your direction, Jones.

[Ceto Rübezahl]

Where is your cold weather, you ask? It's right here, Christin, in Newcastle. We are currently wearing fraying cocktail coats and taking refuge in a Starbucks before the concert. I imagine Bear Grylls will pass by before too long, doing a survival special with David Attenborough narrating. :(

Pretty sure the David Attenborough narration will only start if Bear Grylls tries to mate with something.

[Darth Turbogeek]

Shut the ever living fuck up about another Royal parasite. When the hell is this damn country going to become a Republic????

Tried carpaccio for the first time last night... yum!

WHY AM I STILL SICK? >:

Grarrrrrrrr

[Vince]

WHY AM I STILL SICK? >:

Grarrrrrrrr

I feel the exact same way. Well, not the exact same way; I would grarrrrrrrr too, but then I would probably cough up my lungs.

[Captain Untouchable]

Doctor Who? Yellow VW Beetle (http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090805153421/tardis/images/5/57/Mickey_is_trapped.jpg).
Once Upon A Time? Yellow VW Beetle (http://www.imcdb.org/i443891.jpg).
Grimm? Yellow(ish) VW Beetle (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltyl13W6GQ1r5gqrao1_500.jpg).

I know it's just coincidence, but I prefer to think that these shows all secretly star Bumblebee.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

Well it might be a surprise, but guess I saw that one coming. Now I need to figure out what I'm going to do...

[Andana Callax]

Damn you, tumblr. DAMN YOU.

[Park Kraken]

I better not still have this lingering cold into the Montana trip. :shakefist

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Got me a coupon book for Pubix :p

Apparently my symptoms match "Walking Pneumonia" (at least according to WebMD - so yeah, maybe five grains of salt). Whatever it is, I'm more than ready for it to be done. Stupid body.

[Captain Untouchable]

At least you're not suffering from Walking Dead, dude.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

Seriously?

There are 4 of 6 of us in this skype conference call in the same office... exactly why are we all using our individual computers?

How many more months do I have stuck here?

[Andana Callax]

Uhh...too many?

[Morgan Evanar]

I just asked for shoes for Christmas. Because I need them.

[Kyran O'Hurn]

Uhh...too many?

Correct. Though, while we don't get Christmas holidays (Chinese don't celebrate it, though they shop and decorate like they do). We do get 3 weeks at the end of January, so hoping that will at least take the edge off.

Edit: Just did the math, and it's basically 200 days from today, though the exact date isn't fixed yet.

[Vince]

You guys remember when I had to fix my door during that hangout after it fell on me?


It happened again.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

The door doesn't like you. Watch out!

Also, walking pneumonia = see a doctor if you haven't already

[Dee]

Uhh...too many?

And here I thought spending time in Greece with my herd of useless relatives was bad >_<

[Dee]

ALSO.

NOTE TO SELF.

Do not try to repaint the bathroom in blood and then sit there giggling that it looks like a CSI crime scene. *sigh*

Gods, do I love Clorox bleach right now.

[Vince]

No money/no insurance because no job. Cannot see doctor. It's pretty much out of my system (finally!), but I do know I've dodged a bullet and it's only a matter of time.

Well, I'm :) about it getting out of your system.

Lots of fracking in the news today:

"What is fracking and why is it controversial?"

"Fracking: Untangling fact from fiction"

"Fracking protestors target tower"

I might just end up joining the Brony nation. Have to watch a few more episodes before deciding for sure though. Definitly like Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Can't stand the one with the highlighted southern accent and cowboy hat. :3:

[Dee]

The Flying Hawaiian has officially landed in Boston.

*glee*

Ok...pitching now. Enough with the position players >_<

[Park Kraken]

Kind of a three way tie between cute cats, sexy girls, and people taking advantage of another tragedy to flame the NRA for posts on my Facebook Wall.

1 Refresh Later; Cats are ahead. :whaa

[Glen Fiddich]

My Glen Fiddich account has a higher post count than many of my roleplaying accounts. :cyduck

Where is my voice D:

[Dee]

Your voice is probably hiding out with what's left of my brain...let me know if you find the bastards.

[Ilias Nytrau]

A/V Receiver ceases to produce sound a week prior to Christmas? YIPPEE. :\

At least it's still under warranty until... January 6th. And still have product service plan for two years after that. :)

[Captain Untouchable]

Today I learned that an old friend of mine works on Arrow.

asfsdfhghjuysdf!! :ohno

[Wyl Staedtler]

Amaaaaaazing breakfast at Lantana and now off to grab a bite of late lunch/early dinner before tottering off to Royal Albert Hall to see Kings College Cambridge Choir. London, you are marvelous. <3

[Park Kraken]

Where's all the enthusiam gone around here? No posts in the RPing section since the 10th, everyone's quiet about the NFL games, etc :shakefist

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

For me I need to get a new motherboard. Not to mention all the christmas shopping I've been putting off. I doubt it's a lack of enthusiasm, just everyone busy with the holidays.

[Park Kraken]

26 hours until my doom arrives. :whaa

Pretty much. Life has been kinda busy!

[Wyl Staedtler]

Made friends with a violinist and got a backstage tour of Royal Albert Hall after the concert - and then the little choir boys sang Oh Holy Night to my friend and I! I think I sort of might love this Christmas thing.

[Captain Untouchable]

The Steam sales are like the are like perfect girlfriend. They're cheap, they're easy to understand, they guarantee enjoyment, and they don't judge me when I inevitably buy something stupid.

Quoted for truth...

Though it's hard to cuddle with the computer.

[Crusader]

I hear a lot of wasted potential on the radio today: "White Christmas" seriously? when you could play that much better songs today:
REM "It's the end of the world as we know it"
Doors "This is the end"
Soundgarden "Black Hole Sun"

[Crusader]

So apparently the world has ended otherwise someone would have posted here in the last few hours.

[Zereth Lancer]

This whole end of the world thing is proving to be quite a lot less exciting than I thought it would be. No looting or orgies in the streets or anything. Looks like I barricaded the doors and windows for nothing :/

You barricaded the doors and windows in order to avoid an orgy?

Does not... compute... :cyduck

Ten Things About England:

1. It is very, very, very, very cold.
2. But! That does not mean that you do not go outside. Suck it up, son.
3. People are really delightfully friendly and hospitable.
4. This is probably because they do not understand a word I say.
5. You will get stared at if you put lemon in your tea.
6. You will get stared at if you ask for a 'dry' cappucino.
7. You will get stared at if you say you do not know who the heck this Wenceslas dude is.
8. Cider is fucking amazing.
9. Cider in a pub with football on is even more fucking amazing.
10. Yorkshire puddings are pretty much the most amazing meal ever.

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Psh.. knew this. <3

I may or may not have driven my writer nuts in the beginning of the movie when I figured out that was Alex.

I just had the weirdest dream...

[Ilias Nytrau]

Last night, I had the strangest dream...

Fix'd. :p

[Kyran O'Hurn]

For the record... I am getting really tired of hearing "Oh I was going to talk to you about that." Long after you actually talked to someone else and made a decision that you should have told me about.

Communication... It's a wonderful thing.

P.S. Working Christmas Eve and knowing that you are working Christmas day makes it feel not at all like Christmas.

If you wait a couple of years, will you grow up into a plaguetoddler?

Holiday carol education has commenced. Thus far I have learned that reindeer are opportunistic scuzzmonkeys and Rudolph was better off without them. Get some real friends who will love you without the endorsement of a mythical jolly fat man, Rudy.

I had a blast taking apart my netbook for a RAM upgrade today! Going from 1GB to 2 is already a huge boost in speed but unfortunately Windows 7 starter does not support the full 4GBs that I installed and a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade costs $140 while an Upgrade to Windows 8 costs only 29,99Euros.
Is Windows 8 any good on a Netbook without a touchscreen or does anyone know a cheaper way to upgrad Windows 7 Starter to Home Premium?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Feeling kind of down. I'm glad the kids had a great Christmas, and I'm happy we could do that for them but now I'm lying in bed just feeling... blah.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

What in the world did I miss last night O_O

[Oliver Queen]

I use 8 on my desktop. It's fine.

Yes nothing like 11,400 Km to make an already complicated situation more so...

[Wyl Staedtler]

Finish brutal workout and decide a shower is in order, only to realize that it's fucking gorgeous outside and you need to go hike through the woods because you found an eerie prison cell half-buried in a hillside during your evening run and it was too spooky to inspect in the dark without a knife.

Oh, England. You are so full of priceless experiences. :love

After a White Christmas in Big Sky, Montana the Central Florida area just seems so boring, lol.

Everyone should sign into all their alts and let's see how many "people" we can have visit the site in 24 hours.

Do eet plus it's good for keeping your names off the inactive list and getting those emails. You know the ones. I've been getting a lot of them.

[Morgan Evanar]

I guess we could, but why?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

For....fun?

[Dasquian the Elf]

I feel hideous. This is just the kind of day when I want to wake up and think, yep, I will be probably still awake by this time tomorrow morning. :shakefist NYE

[Barbara Nolan]

:( feel better :hug

[Emelie Shadowstar]

ughhhhhhhhhhh....

4:00am wakeup means effff youuuu new years. As soon as it's 2013 for the east coast I am calling it done and going to bed :|

[Dasquian Belargic]

Sacking off the night out. Gonna sulk at home instead.




I am an idiot.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I am also staying at home tonight. Really, New Years isn't much different than any other night, just adding "happy new year" in before bedtime.

sigh

[Droo]

I hate New Year's Eve with a passion. I'm glad to be staying in tonight.

[Wyl Staedtler]

Let's all stay in together! :love

[Barbara Nolan]

Well, if I'm celebrating New Years with England, then you all have to stay up with me for New Years. :colbert

[Droo]

Johnnie Walker and profiteroles. Decadence!

[Wyl Staedtler]

Well, if I'm celebrating New Years with England, then you all have to stay up with me for New Years. :colbert

I will be running a 10k then if I'm converting the time right, but I will fistpump in victory for you!

8 am is the correct time :)

[Carter Hall]

It has just been pointed out to me that all of the verses in We Three Kings have the rhyming structure of limericks.

Mind = Blown.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

New Years in Alabamistan :)

Happy new year, nerds

I slept through all the fireworks :smug:

Overheard on the train -

Boy: "I swear, this woman is going to break me."

Girl: "You could almost call her the Bane of your existence."

[Emelie Shadowstar]

It's winter... Do we really need the fucking AC ON?! :( I should not have to wear tights under my slacks just to even remotely hope to not feel like I'm frozen all damn day.

[Wyl Staedtler]

We're taking your mother to surgery! (To surgery! To surgery!)

[Green Arrow]

Why are there so many attractive women on Cbeebies? :cyduck

[Wyl Staedtler]

I'm just going to give up any pretenses and embrace the fact that lately I've been dressing like an extra in a 1980s film. AND LOVING IT.

[Morgan Evanar]

It's ok that's in right now (unfortunately).
