What happens when you mix Call of Duty footage with an elevator music version of the USA for Africa charity song? A highly disturbing piece of propaganda, apparently.

North Korea... what the fuck!? (http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=203_1360053143)

[Crusader]

You know that you really want the next Song of Ice and Fire book when any news feed on Facebook just titled Breaking News acompanied by a picture of GRRM makes you think: "Don't you dare yourself to die before finishing a Dream of Spring!"

Talking about ASOIAF are you aware that they will start shooting scenes from a Dance with Dragon next year? This kind of just blew my mind...

[Enedra Myrrhe]

There are so many things wrong with me that I don't even know where to start to fix things.

[Callista]

My post count to years been here is really sad.

Quality not quantity ?

...I wish, lol...there might be 10 actual RP posts in the lot.

I am the only person I know who could go into Target intent on buying a snow shovel...and come out instead with a blu-ray player and three new movies.

All in preparation for the two feet of snow I'm getting tomorrow, of course.

[Vince]

I just now noticed that I'm an old fart. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad. :p

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I can't believe it has taken 11 years for me to realize what happened, and what a tremendous bastard you were. I always thought you were an ass, but the experience has been expressed in different language which makes things clear, and also has made me feel...feelings.

[Park Kraken]

I just realized my tenth year High School Reunion is this year.

I'm old. :whaa

And what have I done with my life in the past ten year? :whaa

I blame my computer. :shakefist :grumble

[Crusader]

OMG I will roleplay as a player and not as a game master after more than five years. I am kind of scared since this time I will not know the plot twist before it happens... this is a strange feeling.

I guess I will try to ask and discuss about insane details nobody care or abuse the enviroment for my advantage in a way the DM has not forseen it. This seems to worked rather well in RPGs based on my latest experiences.

[Dee]

When in doubt, Peter, buy climbing gear :)

I started to ask for secret doors or passages in every room... just in case there might be one in room number 17.

"OH NO I ATE SOME HORSE!"

[Taataani Meorrrei]

"OH NO I ATE SOME HORSE!"

suck it up, England

Anglophone nations need to get the fuck over themselves and let some people eat some horses. Because I really want to.

[Droo]

It's not so much the OMGHORSEMEAT factor, at least certainly not for me and everyone I've spoken to about it, but the fact that if you pay for beef then that's what you should get. By now it's become quite apparent this is not an accident but an intentional deception, and it is criminal. Not to mention the possibility of there being bute present in the meat, which could present a health risk.

There has been, amongst some media commentators, a tone of dismissal to counter the usual overblown hysteria. Yes, there's nothing wrong with eating horse, and yes, it shouldn't present a health risk. No big, right? Wrong. It's offensive to think that, when the public have been lied to and have been paying for something they didn't want, that they should be expected to just get over it. Why? So the big fat meat maestros can wrangle more of their hard-earned dosh.

Edit: Furthermore, it's quite irresponsible of those claiming that there's nothing to worry about regarding this horse meat. These are the same people saying that it looks increasingly obvious that this is the result of criminal activity. So... what? They're putting their faith in the noble intentions of these meat-swapping criminals to only provide us with a safe, quality product. What a load of rubbish.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I understand why it's a big deal. I am just tired of hearing about it from uninformed, hysterical sources. I only want to hear about it when we have actual new information and facts about the extent of what's happened.

[Droo]

You and I both, but you know the score, it's not considered news until we're sick to death of hearing about it.

[Crusader]

First you can't trust your media now your beef what is next? Maybe you will find out that the doctor always lies?

Try ibuprofen and ice. I have an ice pack in my freezer for whenever my tendinitis acts up... it's enough to take the edge off the pain and ease the swelling, so that I can hobble around reasonably okay until the drugs kick in. It's amazingly effective; not a long-term solution, but it's a good short-term fix.

Do you have the book? I recommend it. It's at least partially practical as it has cocktail recipes, but it's also got a recipe for the most expensive breakfast ever and an entire chapter on the process to get proper italian shoes from a cordwainer. So many laughs.

Rewatching old episodes of He Man and She Ra on Netflix just made me realize how prude the world has gotten ever since the 80s... One day I will make my children rewatch this and they will ask me if back in my days pants and skirts were not invented yet.

Walk into Granddad's haus and within 10 minutes he's gotten me a gin and tonic, a plate of squash and boerwors, 100 bucks, and is sitting with Rhys on his knee telling stories about Samora Machel and Idi Amin while sneaking my kid sips of his beer. Coolest, sharpest, fittest 90-something I know. <3

The great and unending tragedy of my life is that I am not a musical ex-nun sent to be a governess for a retired Navy captain with jaded views on love and life in the Austrian countryside against the tumultuous backdrop of a seething political landscape.

[Mr E Nygma]

The great and unending tragedy of my life is that I am not a musical ex-nun sent to be a governess for a retired Navy captain with jaded views on love and life in the Austrian countryside against the tumultuous backdrop of a seething political landscape.

The phrase "dodged a bullet" comes to mind here...

[Wyl Staedtler]

I can only wish to be dodging bullets with Captain Von Trapp. How do you solve a problem when your name is not Maria? :(

[Mr E Nygma]

Problems only happen to people in musicals. The rest of the world doesn't even have to worry about singing its collective way out of danger.

[Wyl Staedtler]

Ah, but imagine how much better the world would be if people DID sing their way out of danger? This is why I insist on singing randomly all day. It adds a little moxie to life.

[Captain Untouchable]

She's not kidding - I got the distinct impression that outbursts of song are an essential Liz bodily function.

[Crusader]

When she starts singing does that mean that people around her have to start dancing in formation around her.

[Mr E Nygma]

Ah, but imagine how much better the world would be if people DID sing their way out of danger? This is why I insist on singing randomly all day. It adds a little moxie to life.

The answer to this is absolutely, 100% entirely dependent on whether the person singing can, in fact, sing. If the world were a musical with an uneven distribution of singing talent, I imagine it would wind up much like, well, Eurovision.

I have a half remembered something from my childhood that makes pushing a grocery cart over concrete very... fun? I don't know how to explain it. Not a parking lot texture, but concrete that has been lined into large squares so the cart goes BUMProllrollrollBUMProllrollrollBUMProllrollroll. I just love it. I wish I could remember the memory that makes me love it. ^_^;

I also love tiny boxes with lids, like the kind that ring boxes come in.

I'm a white male and I'm fortunate to live in a democratic western society. This means that in my culture, when it comes to racism and sexism, I'm fair game. Whoops, I'd better not make an issue of it though, lest I be accused of overreacting or having no sense of humour or, that most unmasculine of traits, sensitive!

What's that? Oh, but throughout history you and your ilk have had to suffer prejudice and discrimination at the hands of society, so I'd better just suck it up. Then why don't we throw this whole notion of equality out the window and call it what it really is: payback.

Society, go fuck yourself.

What is it with people making Facebook accounts for their children? I imagine being a child of the current generation, reaching my teens and realising that my parents have been documenting my life online for me since I was born, complete with status updates and photos and videos... and just being overwhelmed by how much of my identity had been defined and publicised, on a platform that you have to try increasingly harder and harder to wipe your presence clean from.

[Captain Untouchable]

What is it with people making Facebook accounts for their children? I imagine being a child of the current generation, reaching my teens and realising that my parents have been documenting my life online for me since I was born, complete with status updates and photos and videos... and just being overwhelmed by how much of my identity had been defined and publicised, on a platform that you have to try increasingly harder and harder to wipe your presence clean from.

No one in my family does this, but I could sort of understand if they did. I have a very big and very spread-out family. I have cousins in Bristol, Wales, the Isle of Wight, and even as far afield as New Zealand. I very rarely see any of them... and neither does my sister, who now has three kids. Most of what I know about my NZ cousin's family, and most of what she knows about my sister's family, has been learned through Facebook. I could understand the logic behind creating a Facebook profile for your child so that you can share pictures/etc with far-flung relatives in a single location, rather than having to send those images to relatives individually, and potentially end up missing someone out.

I think it depends on the person responsible, really. If they're careful with the privacy settings, and if you're using Facebook just to show those images to close friends/family, then I don't think it's necessarily any worse than the usual amount of embarrassing information that parents usually share with their kids.

Then again, Facebook is full of weirdos. My dad (and apparently several people he knows) have Facebook pages for their pets, and post in-character on other people's walls. I had an ex who had a Facebook page for her dead dog, and used to leave messages on it's wall to "talk" to it. People find all kinds of weird things to do with Facebook. :uhoh

[Dasquian Belargic]

I don't have a problem with people putting pictures of their kids on Facebook, on their own account. That makes sense to me. Facebook is a tool for sharing, after all.

I just get uncomfortable at the idea of people making a Facebook profile as if you were the kid, updating its statuses ([So and so] is off to the park with [sister] and [brother]). Especially if they don't manage the privacy settings correctly. It's leaving a... footprint on the internet before the kid even has a choice whether or not s/he wants to be on Facebook and have their life turned into a Timeline.

Maybe I have just been watching too much Black Mirror recently :p

[Droo]

My cousin does it her for her daughter, who will never be able to walk, let alone work a computer or hold a conversation. It's her way of engaging her daughter more with the family when she's at home, with cute little status updates like "Just had a yummy dinner with my nanny!" followed by an indecipherable mash of letters from Lily signing off on it, so to speak. She's a very happy child and, as is the case with so many families, we don't see each other as much as we'd like to, so this is a nice way to remain in touch and involved.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Forget FB accounts for kids, it's the cat/dog accounts that blow my mind (no offense to anyone who has an account for their cats I'm sure it's fun but I wouldn't do it)

Posting from the xbox because I can. Using the keyboard is amusing because the tapping sound the audio makes everytime I type a key is very different from the quiet typing I'm normally used to.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I like keyboards that make a lot of noise. I also like keyboards that are quiet.

I simply enjoy typing, I guess. The sound doesn't matter so much as the feel of the key when I press it. It has to feel soft but not too soft. If there's a hard click when you press down it's not right.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

It's not the keyboard making the noise, it's the 'beep-boop-boop' that xbox audio makes when entering text :)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I know, I went off on a tangent.

The browser on the Xbox is really nice. Once flash video has been completly replaced by html5 you will not need a PC for most of the internet stuff. Now MS needs to team up with google so that we can have hangout and skype on the xbox720.

Also, I'm watching Born Free with my son and my tiny nephew, and I am pretty sure this was filmed next door to my uncle's house. I can see some scenery that looks almost exactly like where his property line used to mesh with his neighbors. I'mma have to call Kenya and ask him.

Play with us! I've got alts up the ying-yang, and I need to run around all over the place to complete dailies and stuff anyhow, so it's no difference to me if I do it in a Level 20 zone. :)

What race / class are you?

Elementalists seem to get badasser higher up, but it helps a great deal if you've got someone else there to distract the bad guys from running at you. :uhoh

When you did your character creation, was your one regret that you never joined the circus?

Yeah, that's what I've been told :)

Honestly I don't remember. Is there a way to check that? I created all 5 slots just to mess around with different ones until level 2 and she was one of the first, so I don't recall what I picked for her.

I would presume that there probably is, but I have no idea how to do it off the top of my head. :uhoh

I remember that I did a noble-born circus enthusiast as my Elementalist to begin with, and I made him look like David Tennant (he had the brown duster and everything). I ended up deleting him though... now my Elementalist is a Silvari with a Chinese-looking mushroom hat, and my human is basically a Captain America lookalike. ^_^;

You should watch it. You can tell, despite the fact that they were canceled by surprise and only given one episode to wrap it up, that the writers have known for some time exactly how the show was going to end. And by 'some time' I mean 'since the pilot.' Seriously. It's a great call back.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Totally pulled off a fixer hat trick tonight cause I'm awesome.

20 till the end of the shift, and the belts on 976 completely flew apart (utterly literally disintegrated to be frank). Being that they connect the pulley and the flywheel - essentially what gives the loom it's get-up and go, it's kind of a big blow-up.

With three dudes standing over me, I jacked up the drive motor, wrestled the old disintegrated belts off, and slapped the new belts on withing 15 mins. This is something that normally takes 20-30 mins.

But dammit I was the only fixer in S4 and fuck you I'm awesome and I fix shit.

Bitch yeah.

Nm = Newton metre :)

It's a unit of energy or 'work', like a joule :)

Okay, so twelve hours later there's still no poast from me, but at least my headache is gone. :thumbup

[Crusader]

:) We received a package from Alabama today! Thank you Christin and Charley!

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Yay it made it!!!

You guys will be having a few more smaller mailings; certainly not packages, but delightful paperish sized mail-bits in the near future from me =]

[Dasquian Belargic]

What did the package contain? :ohno

[Crusader]

^^A CD for Martina and M&Ms in flavours that Jace's brain would not be able to process.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I'm going to kill your headache if it dares show it's face again :shakefist fucking kill it to death

[Droo]

It's horrible. I can go without a headache for ages and then will get a bad cluster of them within the space of a week. It always feels like the right side of my head is clenching: pressure behind my eye, pain behind my ear, tension down the back of my head and neck. So, yes, next time please do kill it to death.

[Ilias Nytrau]

Well, I have to say that this hangover is clearing up much faster than usual!

Must be the lack of soda in my drinks last night. :yum

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Miraculously, I managed to not get a hangover :)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I just woke up! This is what happens when the baby monitor doesn't work. I oversleep. Luckily the older kids keep Olivia entertained by jumping into bed with her and letting her crawl on them. :3:

Cave Johnson is my favorite fictional character.

Greetings, friend. I'm Cave Johnson, CEO of Aperture Science. As you've no doubt learned after your time in cryosleep, human civilization as we knew it was utterly destroyed over a thousand years ago. We've attempted to rebuild as best we could with the only remaining book on the planet... [sigh]"The Rock Says", the autobiography of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. So. Let's all pause for a moment to smell what the Rock was, is, and forever will be... cooking.

[Zenas Codrey]

Apparently this (http://www.binghamsmenswear.com/media//kiltsHunting-Stewart.jpg) is what Andrew (my soon-to-be step brother) and I will be wearing at my dad's wedding, more or less.

Do you think anyone will notice if I crawl under my desk and take a nice long nap today?

I am so tired...so very tired :(

[Captain Untouchable]

^ Probably not, if you're the small child that your avatar suggests.

[Emma Atreides]

I wish I were. Seriously so tired right now my eyes are watering.

On another note...got my tax refund. So yay! But I just bought a laptop.

And a copy of Mass Effect for my XBOX.

What is *wrong* with me?

Nothing wrong with that. ME3 is totally affecting my online presence. I understand completely. Just make sure you don't drool on your controller over Shepard. Try to have a bucket on standby instead. ;)

[Yolie Devix]

Hey now...I'm perfectly able to control myself :p *gets a bucket anyway*

I bought ME1 to play first (my OCD demanded it). But I also bought Lego Lord of the Rings, so that's now on tap as well.

-----

OMG...hello Coca-Cola...I love you.

[Dasquian Belargic]

If you're not playing as FemShep, Dee, you're playing the game wrong!

[Captain Untouchable]

^ This.

In all seriousness, you really should be FemShep. Especially in ME1. Mark Meer was only meant to be a placeholder recording to be replaced afterwards, but Bioware decided to keep it. As such, there's less effort put into the recording... Jennifer Hale's FemShep voicework is considerably more emotive and immersive.

[Dee]

Ahhh...ok. I'll definitely play as FemShep then.

At least the first time through.

Good god, is this a thing now? The only redeeming part of the entire first date process is the fact that there's potentially dinner, desert, and alcohol involved. Without that, all you're left with is an awkward and embarrassing conversation with someone you're clearly attracted to but hardly know. Who would want that?!

If I want to feel all nervous and self-conscious while looking at video footage of a celebrity, I'd much rather do it without them watching me back, thanks. :uhoh

I get emotionally invested in some games and when I finish them there's this great big hole.

I can't possibly fill this with another game yet... so... fill with post, I suppose!

[Captain Untouchable]

I have just come to a shocking realisation.

In the comics, the full name of General Zod - the villain in Man of Steel - is Dru-Zod.

That's right. His first name is Dru. Droo is General Zod.

I must admit, Mr Milligan, it's a cunning alias. Many of your peers (I'm looking at you, Martian Manhunter) aren't quite so ingenious at hiding their true alter ego in plain sight like that. And in truth, I might not have realised it were it not for your overwhelming excitement about a movie in which I now realise you are a main character. But I've seen through it now, villain. Your days are numbered.

I'm on to you. :mad

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

You're a strange bird, Cap o_O

[Captain Untouchable]

Oh come on. When you think about it, Droo secretly being a supervillain explains everything.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

We all know that Droo is Craig Charles, and no way is Dave Lister a supervillain :p

[Captain Untouchable]

That's exactly what he wants you to think. :colbert

I despair.

[Halajiin Rabeak]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-21923218

I despair.

This, after some UK schools are now banning children from playing with their best friends at school, and forcing them to only play in larger groups of kids they don't know as well.

The reason for this? So that kids don't suffer heartbreak when they might break up with their best friend. Basically, let's forego any meaningful relationships in favor of fleeting, casual encounters that offer no true personal growth.

I, too, despair.

[Droo]

I hadn't read about that, Mitch. I'll have to look it up. It sounds absurd. How would they even begin to enforce something as stupid as that?

[Halajiin Rabeak]

Well, it's easy if you think about it. Assign every child a number, and then assign them play groups every day where they can only associate with the others assigned to their group, and every group is randomly assigned via computer every day.

Or, we could just let normal social development happen, where kids learn ACTUAL social skills. Just a thought...

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Anything regarding the regulation of flapjacks is terrible. Flapjacks are awesome. I haven't had a flapjack in a billion years.

[Ilias Nytrau]

I just realized how strange it will be to go to Montreal this year and stay with the in-laws. One of their two cats, the one that had cancer, died in the past week. It will be odd not hearing him ring the dingley bell at the back door to be let out. Or picking him up off the table against his furry little will. Or finding him constantly in our bed, there.

He was thirteen. And his name was Max.

The Star Wars setting has had a real kick in the pants recently, I'm not sure how much you're aware of, but it involves a significant shift on the political landscape and a time jump of about eight months - plenty of space for you to maneuver yourself out of a creative funk.
