Anime, I have issues with you.
[LJ]

Chairman Wow: what are you up to?
Cubed2D: watching an anime
Cubed2D: confusingly called 'i my me strawberry eggs'
Chairman Wow: ...
Chairman Wow: sounds good
Chairman Wow: XD
Cubed2D: about a guy who tries to get a job as a sports teacher at a high school, but the head teacher is sexist and will only employ females because males are all savages with no love in their hearts etc etc
Cubed2D: so he dresses as a lady to get the job
Chairman Wow: awesome
Cubed2D: the rules: all female characters cannot trust males. all males are perverts and cannot be trusted. all male character have to be perverts. main character is the only sensible person in the entire world (disregarding the whole I should dress as a lady to get this job bit, rather than you know... finding another job)
Chairman Wow: yep, sounds definitely like reality
Chairman Wow: what was that about sexism hurting men, too....? :P
Cubed2D: heh

Yep.

A propos, I keep meaning to link to this article, but, you know, no internet: 5 Stupid, Unfair and Sexist Things Expected of Men. Very interesting stuff.

While I'm linking, I found a much better website for my math studying than the one I was using previously: Paul's Online Math Notes. The one before was kind of wishy-washy about the right terms and notation, which bothers me. >_> This one is looking much more useful.


I'm home for a day or two, mainly to watch Sherlock, and True Blood with my mum. XD (It's kind of cool watching a show with my mum. We were looking at the True Blood merchandise on the Forbidden Planet website earlier. Maybe I should find her some fanfic to read...)

Second episode of Sherlock was kind of disappointing. Not as much fun banter, and Chinese circus smuggler gangsters? Idk, guys, idk. Quite Holmes-style in a way, but I kept waiting for the opium den to show up. :|


I'm gonna be home again next Monday, because my family and I are going to Vienna for a week from Tuesday, so I may prepare a bit of a picspam entry to post then.

la la code joke
[LJ]

There hasn't been an opportunity to use my "im lulz" tag in months.

cubed2D: mums watching some award cerimony on tv. its rubbish
[info]chairman_wow: yeah, the brits, I think. My mum's watching it, too. And my dad's watching football in my room. XD
cubed2D:it basicly goes....
int count = 0;
while(moderatlyFamousManIsOnStage)
{
   FamousPerson p = AnnounceFamousPerson();
   WalkToStage( p );
   Talk(p, "Its lovly to be here, im really famous.");
   Cards[] cards = ReadFourCards( p );
   cards.Sort();
   FamousPerson winner = card[0];
   Talk(p, "the winner is " + winner.ToString() + "!!!!");
   WalkToStage(winner);
   Talk(winner, "Its lovly to be here, me and " + p.ToString() + "really famous.!!!!");
   WalkOffstage( p );
   WalkOffstage(winner);
   count++;
   if (count > 10)
   {
      AdvertBreak();
      count = 0;
   }
}

Today I got up past noon and did nothing truly productive (though I did organise a lot of old files on my hard drive and tidy my room a little). Tomorrow I will do better. Maybe I'll even write a proper blog-post or two. :O

Do not repeat the mistakes I have made, young ones.
[LJ]

Here's what you shouldn't do on Twitter if you're trying to avoid spam, as demonstrated by Steph (@brainsinajar) and myself:

(Read bottom-to-top, naturally.)


I know, I know, we should've know better. -_-


A few days ago, I gave in to the secret urge to find fanfic about Rossiu's angsty unrequited crush on Simon that I've been harbouring ever since I finished watching TTGL, and now my brain's gone on a Gurren Lagann kick again. XD I wanna make icons, but VLC is really really not a fan of .mkv files, and taking screencaps in Media Player Classic is like pulling teeth. Maybe I'll redownload all the episodes in .avi format later, idk.

Also, I don't even like high-school stories that much, but you have to love a series with a canon high-school AU. (Though I admit, as my actual time in high school recedes into the past, high-school stories are growing on me. Growing from dislike into indifference, but growing nevertheless.)


Tim asked me to do some concept art for a game he's working on, and it totally brought back my drawing groove. XD I should really figure out how to make it so whether I manage to produce creative things isn't determined by my mood. That would be awesome. Anyway, when I get back to my place* there'll probably be a massive art post sometime.


I'm working on a post pimping out one of my favourite book series of all time, but I'm a little hesitant to post it, because I am so exaggeratedly emotionally invested in the world and the characters that I'm afraid someone'll comment something along the lines of "I read it and thought it was pretty lame." T_T

Also I still have 200-odd pages left of the final book, and WHAT IF IT SUDDENLY TURNS RUBBISH? *irrational fretting*


PS: Oh gosh, Hiling, you are too adorable. Come live with me and be my girlfriend and we'll go look for bugs together, I promise.

PPS: Oh yeah, and I watched the first two episodes of the new season of Merlin. It's still pretty awful. Episode 2 did make me laugh out loud a few times, though. (I think it was on purpose.)


*Our staircase is being ripped out and replaced, so I'm staying at Tim's for a few days.

I finally watched the last 5 episodes of Gurren Lagann to-day!
[LJ]

Me: finished!
Tim: :O
Tim: rubbish right?
Me: yeah, pretty anticlimactic
Tim: :P
Me: Only a robot the size of a galaxy? Psh.
Tim: didn't think you would like it
Tim: you're a girl after all
Tim: didn't have ANY dresses
Me: well, it had a few dresses
Me: no ponies, though
Me: or unicorns
Tim: but the dresses weren't on men, that's the only reason girls watch gundam
Me: True

Me: Yoko was wearing a suit in the last scene, though, I approved of that

Alright, I admit it.

This is the real reason I got a tablet.

Me: FINE, 0800-GRIT-AID

Me: XDD dammit, I am so transparent
