Lunchy you will rock that and then you will work in a hip restaurant so when I rob a bank and escape to australia you can serve me snazzy food.


Re: Gay
People object to it being used as a general all-purpose 'bad' term like stupid or dumb because of the negative connotations it the implies about the term gay and consequently, being gay.
The point is, if you use gay like that it kind of suggests you think of being gay as being a bad thing. I know this is most often not the case, but if you think about the shit gays have had to deal with for the past however long, maybe you'll reconsider using to mean bad things.

Also, having a gay friend who says 'gaaayyy' does not negate the arguments against it.

Dear blog thread,

I just realized I think of crushes the way people talk about relationships. "Good, lasted for x months", "still not completely over it, left me moping for ages" etc etc.

Fuuuuuuuck.

Man I was there for a while, then I realized people sometimes wanted to bone me and then some stuff happened and people were interested in me and now I can't reconcile the fact that people like me with the fact that I don't like myself and consequently I am wait where am I going with this?

I guess maybe you will find people when you leave where you are and then you will hopefully not be as weird as me?

Dear Blog Thread,

My dad is a cool dude. I never really considered him to be such. In fact, growing up, I've always considered him a dork.

But I am a dork. And dorks are awesome. My dad has a gamerscore of over 10000 across 150+ games. He regularly reads gaming blogs and other assorted nerdery. He listens to Feist and Regina Spektor. I actually like my dad.

Also, his boss(a middle-aged Jewish dude) is cool too. I was stuck at my dad's work for an hour or so and he boss showed up, so I chatted with him for a little bit. Then he went to his office. His office with XKCD and Overcompensating on the door. It was rad.

Basically, what I am saying is that I know some decent middle-aged dudes. It's awesome.

Thank you.

I think every college and university in the English-speaking world has nerdy comics on the office doors. I know the Physics and Maths buildings at Newcastle do. There's XKCD everywhere!

My girlfriend asked me about XKCD after she read about it in the newspaper.* If something is being mentioned in the newspaper, it is not some secret thing barely anyone knows about.




*She figured I would know about it because it is super nerdy, and I am super nerdy. Her reasoning was impeccable.

XKCD was not so terribly surprising.

Overcompensating was.

Ask them if you would be able to schedule the interview for Monday. Explain that you aren't in the area yet. Obviously they may not be able to wait, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Man so I put in about 23 different applications last night and 12 hours later I already have two interviews. I need to get myself organised and figure out what the fuck I am going to do to get to Sydney.

I graduated college In May, and only two months later I landed a job in the agency I was gunning for. On top of that, they're paying my tuition to go back to school in the fall for 32 more credits and I'll still be getting my hourly pay while at school. I'm pretty happy.

On the down side the town I live in now is just about as backwoods redneck conservative as Pennsylvania gets. I'll be lucky to find someone who has read "The Old Man and the Sea", let alone any Tolstoy. My prospects of discussing Russian film or philosophy are equally as dim, so thats the downside to the whole thing.

Gay is not when you still like your ex. Gay a word to describe happiness, or a sexual attraction to somebody of the same sex. If you are going to use that word, please use it properly. Thank you!

yeah i just stated i still cared and suggested sexually attracted... whoever said they werent the same sex?

I guess it'd depend on the intent behind giving you the clothes and if you want them.

I've been coughing so much and so hard that my abdomen hurts. This has been going on for the past 3 days. I have no other symptoms. My boyfriend wanted me to go to the doctor, but I declined and he and his mom left for the dentist. I go and lay down and notice I wheeze when I breath deeply. Ugh.

see, if i knew her a little better i'd understand what her intent is.
and it's a bit too late to get further acquainted, as both of us are moving out in three days.

shrug. i think i will keep the stuff that is similar to what i'd normally buy for myself.
thanks internet.

'Cause that would be pretty good.

Eh? I reckon it's a lot grittier and more realistic than any other show. Certianly better than 24. 24 always struck me as a little overblown.

Season One is so, so good.

It doesn't quite have the gritty realism of 24 but I guess it's the second best expose of crime-fighting in America.

If I didn't know you were joking here I would spend the next two weeks trying to figure out a way to punch you through the Internet.

No way man, 24 was painstakingly realistic.

There really are 24 hours in the day, they didn't just make that up.

Also, my life is constantly in split-screen and I never have to take a dump.

I don't know how the rest of you are livin', though.

for some unknown reason, me and tommy watched an entire season of 24 while he was here and it was the one where jack bauer and gang are trying to prevent terrorists from releasing a weaponized virus,  but instead of doing their jobs everybody fucks off and argues with each other, and jack's daughter works for ctu even though she is a teenager, and at one point someone brings, like... a baby into ctu.
and the worst part was that it wasn't like this was an accident. i mean, the reason we could watch this in the first place was because at one point in my life i had paid for 24 on dvd. i bought it and brought it into my home. so i could watch it again and again. it's like a disease so horrible that when you finally recover you can never look back.

I'm well pissed off. My rather new (4-5 month old) monitor has birthed 20-30 dead pixels overnight. It's quite an eyesore.

Fuck. Inconveniences.

The two batches of dead pixels seem to be identical, pattern-wise. I don't know what to make of this. But it angries up my blood.

On the plus side, I snagged a demo disc for the first time in years today (I used to be all about nicking PC demo discs from the local supermarket. I've still got my hard copy of the Starcraft demo) but this one, being a shiny DVD, contains the entirety of Sid Meier's Colonization. Fucking Sid Meier's Colonization. Fucking awesome.

I've decided I'm going to use Palestine by Joe Sacco in my English assignment and I'm downloading the torrent at this very moment because: 1) I don't have a copy, 2)the local library and my school library don't have it at the moment and 3) It's been at least two years since I've read it and barely remember a lot of key things.

Is that a screenshot?

I think it might be that your video card is dying, otherwise you wouldn't see the dead pixels in a screenshot.

Unless you drew them on afterwards?

Hmm, you're right. I'll double check and hook up the monitor to another computer.

Well, if replacement ends up the name of the game it's upgrade time I suppose. Easier than getting a new monitor.

Guys, I love playing games and everything, but hell, Red Rover does not get easier the older you get. It's more fun, yes, because blocks are more interesting, but dammit, it fucking hurts. I have a big ass bruise on my right arm because three large guys decided I'm a weak blocker. (Oh, but were they wrong.) So fun, but owwwwwwww.

Also, allergies can ROT IN HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY. I have outside things to do! I can't do them while sneezing every 10 seconds!
