Friday, November 29, 2002 I WILL NOT BE DENIED MAH BRATZS DOLLIES! XD Did a lot of shopping today. First time doing that "Day after Turkey Day" thing and I have to admit, it went well. Got two-thirds of the items I needed to get after going to about 7 different stores. So many people with so many bad-ass kids...what possesses people to think it's a damn good idea to take their children holiday shopping? So much shrieking and running and throwing toys about and "gimmee" it was unreal. Especially the little Pagan at Target who insisted on pulling down shelves of merchandise (literally!) while singing at the top of his lungs "MINE MINE MINE!" And where was Mommy and Daddy, you ask? In the next aisle over, saying "If we just ignore him, he'll get tired and come along." Like store employees really enjoy picking up after your ILL-TRAINED BRAT! I don't know who needs their ass snapped more; the kid or THEM! If you can't be bothered with teaching your child how to behave in public you need to keep their asses at HOME, or let Grandma deal with it. I've seen seriously disturbed children behave better than some of the kids I saw today. Pitiful. Ronin and I played our regular game where I send him to different parts of the store to "get" things for me (while I pay for his gifts that I've hidden in the cart) and he, of course, pretends he doesn't know what the hell I'm doing and goes anyway. Kupo is going to happy with the new Lemony Snickett books, Quantum Leap goodies and other refinements he's going to get; whereas I have to find good hiding places because you know this is the "season for snooping" lol! Got some goodies for mah fellow Muses and Ms Moon too! XD. And no, I'm not telling, so don't ask, guys! XD More shopping tomorrow...goodie. -_- Half the stuff was gone today, like a picked over turkey carcass. Hope I find the rest of my stuff I need. malkavians followed london home @ 11:46 PM CST Wednesday, November 27, 2002 Saw some weird-ass stuff this morning. While walking Kupo to school I saw a whole bunch of crows flying in formation...with what I thought was a giant albino crow at the head but what later turned out to be a seagull! ROFL! They flew to this tree, roosted and started singing "Caw! Caw! Caw!" I didn;t stick aornd to see what the seagull was singing; the whole thing looked sinister all around. Yesterday I told Ronin that I was not going to the big din-din tomorrow at his sister's house. Those of you who are coupled up and have to deal with holiday extravangaza drama know exactly what I'm talking about, and why I passed -_- Very odd that people who you don't see that often (and in my case, don't know) seem too be quite comfortable asking questions that even a Philistine would consider out of place. I don't suffer fools lightly, so I think it's best that I leave myself out of it, as I'm not paticularly fond of this holiday (or Columbus Day, for that matter) anyway. Plus he told me that his freaky, nosy, picture-taking aunt is going to be there as well, so double pass. But there's one major reason why I don't want to go. Would you like to know? Good. Come closer, Gentle Reader. That's it. Here it is: I hate stuffing and potato salad. Think about it. What do people usually serve at their Thanksgiving dinner? Stuffing and potato salad. Two foods that if there was a choice between eating them and running around insane like that King Nebucanezzer in the Bible, all I have to say is "yum, pass the grass!" I DETEST those two foods...but yet they are on every holiday menu. Lovely people (thanks) make it as a side dish, but most stuff the bird FULL of that nasty, detestable substance, so the whole yucky nasty stuffing taste seeps all through the bird, thereby ruining a whole food item. I can't exactly lie and say I'm a vegan (esp since we went over there a few weekends ago and inhaled some ribs), and I know from painful experience that some people get seriously offended if you say "No" to the stuffing. They'll argue with you about it. They'll say it's the best stuffing ever and you should try it. Ditto for the potato salad. And will get seriously offended if you tell them no, that shit will make me throw up. Growing up, my family didn't celebrate holidays but the problem generally came up at feasts and let me tell you...people seriously get mad about it, no matter how polite you are. So I usually get to eat the ham (unless some genius decides to bake it on TOP of stuffing) peas, yam, and desert. His sister and brother in law are very nice people and I don't want to do that to them. Of course, there's prolly some other issues as to why I don't want to go but just let me bask in my excuse-making, okay? malkavians followed london home @ 02:46 PM CST Tuesday, November 26, 2002 Good Lord. There are soooo many people out here who honestly believe that being a complete and utter shit to others simply smacks of pure class and good breeding. Ms London is here to tell you no it doesn't, and to snap you out of your personal madness. It's not exactly behavior fit for prime time, and the people who tell you it's cute are singing a different tune the minute one of your many faces is turned away from them. Let's look at exhibit number a, shall we? Hi, I'm a sports fan! Hey, my team just won! I think I'm going to go out and tear some shit up! And while I'm at it, I'll loot some shit too! Also included in this group are the many newscasters who insisted on saying that it was a just "simply college kids who had too much to drink and were simply out of control." Ah, I get it. When inner-city youth engage in such behaviour, it's called a damn riot, but when the shiny happy college children show how much they appreciate how Mom and Dad sacrificed for them to go to a good school by being a destructive, drunken lout, why, that's o-kay! Thank you so kindly for clearing that up for us, Mr. Newscaster! And by the way, I'm sure the many people who had property and vehicles destroyed certainly agree that "those wacky kids are just seriously sowing sme wild oats, nyuk-nyuk!" I'm also hissing venom at the people who are part of SSOAT (Secret Society of Online Art Theives). I don't need to post a link to that situation as it's been handled, but it never ceases to amaze me how people seem to think it's perfectly okay to lift artwork from people's sites, airbrush out names or crop it, and claim it as their own. These are probably the same group of people who go to foreign art sites and lift stuff since "the artist speaks a different language so they won't even know!" Wow, what a concept! Working on this rather moronic reasoning, I can download the Mona Lisa, print it out, and claim it's mine! I don't think I have to even say this to the many artists and designers out there who KNOW how long it takes to paint, sketch and create beautiful images and thereby KNOW the hard work it involves. No, this is for the "special" people, the stick figure crowd who apparently think this sort of behavior is acceptable: The little c thing in the circle means copyright. Copyright means that this person, if so inclined can SUE your ass because the work BELONGS to that person. They created it, not you, and if they are pissed off enough to come for your stupid, ill-mannered ass so be it. Get it? Got it? Good. malkavians followed london home @ 09:49 PM CST Sunday, November 24, 2002 hurray, she's alive, she's alive, she's alive...she's alive! Now I don't have to call the police in Michigan to find her! ^^ HAPPY BIRTHDAY, YOUSE! malkavians followed london home @ 11:32 PM CST Thursday, November 21, 2002 Aw, man......sometimes, people can be lamer than lame...exhibit #1 right here. This came in my email today from a company that I sent my resume to. Can you possibly get MORE tacky than this? Mind you, there was nothing in the actual body of the email; just this image attachment, and the fact that it was sooo obviously blind-copied....I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD BCC this, LOL! I didn't know whether to laugh, cry, or thank god they DIDN'T want me but the fact that someone in their art department actually designed this is sick-making so I'll go for the latter. -_- Oh yeah, cribbed this long-ass ink-blot test from the Incadescent One's blog, and came up with this result:
This means you have a deep desire to use innovative ideas to enhance your life and influence the world around you. This drive influences you far more than you may realize on a conscious level. Your need to be innovative drives how you look at new opportunities and the kinds of experiences in life you choose to have. On an unconscious level, the reason you may be so driven by imagination is your fear of destruction, the opposite of creation. When you are unable to create due to restrictions imposed by your environment or even ones you unwittingly impose on yourself, do you feel trapped or confined? You may find these feelings of unease only get better when you find another outlet for your imagination. With such a strong creative orientation, you are willing to entertain a broad spectrum of ideas at any given time. The world is a fuller, richer place because you can contribute new ideas to any experience. Your natural curiosity inspires those around you and encourages them to come up with ideas they wouldn't have thought of without your help. Though your unconscious mind is driven most strongly by Imagination, there is much more to who you are at your core.
malkavians followed london home @ 12:31 AM CST Sunday, November 17, 2002 So sorry. This weekend's edition of "What Hellfang fucked with on his walk" has been interrupted by the Social Blogging Committee (SBC). Highlights of this broadcast include these tasty nuggets: What was one down, must come back up. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you don't NEED to know. More adoption centers than you can shake a stick at. Whether you want flowers or fruit, I'm sure there's something to fill your fancy. So get some! Wot's crack-a-lacking over here? Did Samara get your ass or wot? You never write...you never call...don't make Nagi and I put out a "wanted" poster for youse! This is also the time of year where apparently people like to surprise their significant others with piecy rocks and say "Dammit, significant other, I wanna make you mine fo shore!" Congrats are in order for The Shortcake (hugs and all of that) and Selphie24 and her NZ man who, after god knows how many years of big-ass phone bills and other refinements, finally got on that damn plane and got her man. On a serious note, congrats to all of you, and I wish you all the best in the world. Also, if you're a big Tekken fan, I suggest that you get your ass over to the discorama where one of my fav people from college has all her good warez online where they can be appreciated (and hopefully not stolen) This concludes today's edition of Social Blogging. We continue with the previous program already in progress. - I'm gonna drag her ass all the way down this street. Somewhere, someone in one of these houses is frying chicken! HELLFANG...NO!!! malkavians followed london home @ 03:39 PM CST Thursday, November 14, 2002
London is bored. shhhhh...take a wild guess. ^_^ malkavians followed london home @ 08:09 PM CST Wednesday, November 13, 2002 Hate hard-to-navigate Atlantis. Hate fat octopussy bitch who won't stop spinning. Love fat balloon creatures (not to be confused with fat squid thingys) that give loads of coinage. Hate pretty much everything else about Atlantis. Onward to Halloweentown, tally-ho! malkavians followed london home @ 10:20 PM CST Sunday, November 10, 2002 Been spending a disgusting amount of time here, where I check out posts like-minded people all analyzing the movie frame 2 frame, picking up on stuff I missed, and getting more and more sleep-deprived. At this point, if I get the VCD of the original Ring, I may actually never sleep ever again. A Little Ring humor: Q. What happens if you watch the tape and then go out, (thereby missing your "phone call o doom" from Samara/Sedako) and you don't have an answering machine or Voice Mail? A. Your Caller ID simply says: "7 days" instead of a number. She'll get you regardless. Kingdom Heart update: Monstro's belly is very, very bright n' colorful in a LSD-enduced-nightmare type of way. It also makes me very, very dizzy. Ugh. edit: malkavians followed london home @ 01:20 PM CST Thursday, November 7, 2002 Went to see "The Ring" today and all I have to say is...nicely done; I seriously hatedumb horror films, and this one is both suspenseful and clever. This movie could have been ruined by overstating the obvious but thankfully this film is too smart for that. It really made me interested in seeing the original Japanese version. Like "Fear Dot Com" it deals with seeing something of an electronical nature that is supposed to cause death, (videotape) unlike feardotcom (which decided wisely to not let you see what was on the actual site for added effect) this movie decided to take a gamble and actually show you the tape, and let me tell you, that tape was nothing nice -_- Someone watched Luis Bunuel's "Un Chien Andalou" one time too many and decided to make their own version for kicks; the imagery alone is enough to keep you up for weeks if you think about it the wrong time of the day. This movie unfolds, like waves, and everything you see on the tape is somehow reinacted in a fashion. Some objects can take a life of its own, and sometimes imagery can blend into reality. Horses can be used for very sinister effect (but if you think about it, horses CAN be sinister as hell at times). The actual "ring" is soemthign you would never believe, and you will marvel in the cleverness of that alone. Very clever ending. Most people (those who like happy happy endings) will not be satisfied and would in fact think harshly of the female lead for making the decision that she did, but what would you do if you were in the same situation? That question, along with exactly wtf that little girl represents, is enough to keep you and your friends talking about this movie for some time. In other news, the "Kingdom Hearts" diary continues.... So far, met a whole bunch of Disney people. Donald Duck needs to be bitch-slapped. Goofy, when given the right equipment and configurations can really help you whoop some ass. Spent about a hour in Aladdin's hometown before I figured out that I had to jump on some window shutters to get to where I needed to go. Cloud is fine as hell in that Vincent Valentine getup he's wearing. Simba is probably tired of me calling him all the time. Did I mention how hot Cloud looked? Unlocked the jungle key and the key that Aladdin gives you. Hate those fat things that take forever to kill, but at leat they give you lots of goodies when you crack their asses open. Also hate those mushroom-looking genies that poison you, disappear and reappear at will and are hard as hell to kill too. Must go back to the the Arena and see Cloud again. What is up with Aeris hanging out with Squall, and why is Squall calling himself Leon now? And last but not least, where the hell did Alice and Jasmine go? I'll probably find out soon, but right now gotta go give Merlin a new page for his book. malkavians followed london home @ 08:21 PM CST Tuesday, November 5, 2002 Everyone seems to be doing okay! Me godbrother is looking a lot better, and they even found his car! In the city pound. Which, incidentally wants $400 bucks to give it back. Somewhere in the code of city decency, there should be a law: if you get car-jacked (getting your ass beat down in the process), report the crime in a timely fashion and the city finds and tows your car, there should be NO FEES INVOLVED in getting your car back. How tacky to ask a victim of a crime for money to give him back his car. The least they could do is dust for prints. :/ On another, more pleasant note, I got Kingdom Hearts! On another, more bitter note, I have no clue as to what I'm doing. I decided that it would be "more fun" without a guide, and it is...to a certain point. None of the trinity points will let me jump except for the blue ones, and I don't know why. Squall is in some underground cavern according to Yuffie and I have no clue as to how to get there. When I stack boxes on top of each other and try to jump on top, the bottom box always breaks. Went to some twisted sick version of "Alice and Wonderland" where I eventually had to beat the crap out of an enemy that looked suspiciously like one of those stickmen in "Parasite Eve II." (Square recycling again). Now I'm hanging out with Tarzan, collecting stuff, and that section at least seems to be pretty...normal, as far as gameplay goes. Whee! malkavians followed london home @ 10:20 PM CST |
