Originally posted by Elara I admit those are a guilty pleasure of mine. I dump far too much flavored creamer in my coffee if it's available. French Vanilla, hazelnut, pumpkin spice, amaretto, Irish cream... yes please! Anyway this made me laugh. |

A belated thanks for all the support. My grandmother's been in her nursing home for a couple weeks now, and she seems to be doing OK. We get complaints from the nurses for this or that from time to time, but she's in no danger or being kicked out, as far as I know. Still, Brandon and I went to visit her last week when we had the time and she kept thinking we were there to take her home, so she got all excited and then cried when we left. This experience is so damn heartbreaking.
Sorry to hear of your car troubles, Xeo. Framework is indeed pricy since it's the vehicle's foundation. Hope it all works out. And, Belial, I'm so damn proud of you, living your dream in another country and everything. Go you! Well, I'm finally a little busy, in the good sense, I suppose. My mom is paying me to write some blurb about the Divine Mercy for her church's newsletter. She's trying to get me work doing fliers as well, since I re-did the old ones of hers for her church group and apparently it impressed some people. Seeing as one of my majors had me practically chained to a desk doing page layouts upon page layouts for newspapers, doing a flier for a series of Catholic masses ain't no thang. Then I've still got to write a WonderCon report for my friend's website and edit pictures for it. I'll probably write some other articles while I'm at it. And of course, I still have to read Stitch's manuscript and edit it. Then on Saturday and Sunday, Brandon and I are going to be extras for a shoot. Next weekend, Voidcrush has another show, which means more picture-taking on my part. I should really have my best shots printed for a portfolio or something. My hope is that when I go in for job interviews, I can tell them I've been busy with projects on top of caretaking for an elderly relative. It sucks having no real experience out of college. |

So this is the Fuck You thread, but for silly things that aren't quite scathing reputes of impassioned odium?
Eh, OK. I'm mad that I ran out of French onion dip, but still had chips that needed dipping. |

Originally posted by Nelrith Not no more I'm not. Near the end of my schooling, my finals weren't so much tests as they were having to write 15-page research papers or doing some sort of project that involved giving a presentation and designing a bunch of shit and handing them in on the day we were scheduled to have our final. Pretty much everything Elara said. Ask for study guides or for the professor to review what would be on the test. If they won't do it for the class see if you can talk to them during office hours. Seriously, though, get them to see your face and recognize you. I honestly think some of my professors may have inflated my grades here and there because I participated in class discussions or went to talk with them during office hours. I'm serious when I say unless it's like a math teacher where they'll grade you by the exact number you got wrong, grading is incredibly subjective. Elara's completely right that the professor will take what they say as the correct answer as opposed to what's in the book. Matter of fact, I've aced many a college course without cracking open the book because I actively took notes on everything said and written on the board. I've personally never relied on or sought out study groups, but I imagine they're handy. I will say this, though, if you kind of get the topic and you're explaining it to someone else it makes a lot more sense. For some reason you learn more from teaching than being taught. I've heard people claim that if you cram the night before a test you'll dream about it and work out the things that don't make sense while you're asleep. That's never worked for me. If ever I do that, I end up with stress dreams and night terrors about missing the test entirely or fucked up shit that makes no sense to anyone. |

While the song was a bit annoying, bravo to the people who made it. What kind of shitheads say things like that to veterans?
When I was getting ready to interview student veterans for my university's alumni magazine I was advised by the Veterans Services manager to not ask questions like, "Were you ever in Iraq or Afghanistan?" and I respect that. To go, "Did you ever kill anyone?" is just fucking rude. |

This photo's been bouncing around Facebook, with the description below:
These photos are from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Memorial Service. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were born in 1984, and were killed in their sleep after being brutally raped and sodomized by Michael Bay in March 2012. The four brothers are survived by their friends the Punk Frogs, the Neutrinos, Fugitoid, and Usagi YoJimbo. They are the son of Splinter. Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael were honorable and well trained in the art of Ninjistu. They defended the Earth and the streets of New York city against countless attacks, all the while asking nothing in return, other than to be accepted, and to eat pizza freely among the humans they fought to protect. The Turtles fought valiantly for 28 years, and in the end they were unable to save themselves from the Michael Bay's viscous, unprovoked, childhood ruining attack. During this attack, despite aid from their fans, the turtles were turned into Aliens, who could not survive in this world of Fandom. They will be missed. RIP Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles They even tagged Kevin Eastman in it. |

So the producers have said that the reason for Willam's ejection from the competition won't be revealed until the reunion episode. Ah well.. we'll find out soon enough. Can't believe we're down to top five already.
I'm so Team Chad Michaels and Sharon Needles. Just for fun here's a compilation of Raja's runways: |

Oh wait, I know what you're talking about now. I'm not sure if it's the same brand, but I picked up a carton of mocha iced coffee sometime while driving in L.A. and just drank it right out of the container. Because I'm just so damned lady-like.
It was pretty good. Don't know why I misread that earlier. |

A thank you to all the people who asked if they could take a picture of me, this past weekend, when I went to WonderCon in costume. I actually wasn't expecting people to want pictures, but it was a wonderful surprise.
|
Thank you, all the random people who just started geeky conversations with me. I may seem really extroverted once I get to know a person, but I'm actually extremely shy and I'd love to just start talking about these sorts of things. Astonishing what wearing a costume can do, I guess.

Awww... trailer no workie.

I'm amused how many people are going, "There better be an alien with three tits... or else!" I don't know what to think about the idea of remaking it. The guy who did the production design for it was a judge on Face Off, which I'd been watching this season. They were showing some of his designs for aliens and they all sort of look like bats and cyborgs with tubes everywhere. (Last edited by Rogue on 04-02-12 03:55 AM)

Season's over, and shockingly didn't hear anyone talking about it at all at the comic convention that was this weekend.
|
Well, in my opinion, the season kind of sucked, though the ending was stronger than the overall package, and Rick's family needs to get wiped out in a heinously bloody fashion already. As others have shortened the season: Carl is told to get inside the house. Carl is NEVER in the house.

Originally posted by Elara That's because this shit can get extremely entertaining when it's not happening to you or someone about whom you care. I figure when we've reached the age when most of the pregnancies that are happening around us call for congratulations and celebrations, instead of "Oh shit!" and "LOL, what a dumbass!" comments, we're old. Still, can't help but feel sorry for these babies that didn't ask to be born and have to go without both parents because of stupid drama.

I write. Just not fiction.
|
I mean, I can come up with some great ideas, but I suck at writing good endings. Eh, it'd be good to have a reason to write more than just 'cause I'm bored.

I asked Brandon to get me some more chips and dip with the $4 and half a Costco receipt I gave him and he keeps complaining that that isn't enough to buy chips and dip with and he refuses to put on the lacy, black panties and whore for a few more dollars in front of WinCo to get these things. |
