Or, "wait, we just did all this work this term only for our professor to tell us that we're not going to have a gallery show because he didn't try to find a place big enough for us to display our work despite knowing that the original place he had in mind would not work even though they've done the Junior Seminar show there for the past several years? Awesome." My contribution of this Junior Seminar class gallery show that never happened was based on past memories and how memories go "missing"
How to commemorate the 99th anniversary of the Titanic colliding with an iceberg and sinking the next day, causing 1,517 people to die: 1) Play "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion, because it's that one theme song from the Titanic movie, everyone knows that even if they haven't seen it, duh! 2) Play "Cold As Ice" By Foreigner, because, you know, everyone falls into the water and they are cold. Cold as ice in fact! 3) Play "White Flag" by Dido, because she's all "I will go down with this ship"
Check it. Seems to take a while to fully load (maybe to liken back to 1996 internet speeds?), but it might just be my computer. I am starting a wizards on bikes brigade. Put them in your signature, put them in your blog, wherever. Just make sure you follow the signature and avatar guidelines, especially the "signatures can contain up to ten images" one.
Seventy-something frame gif I made of me putting up nearly all of my art from my freshman and sophomore years of college over the course of at least three hours for my art program admission last fall. Kind of mad that I couldn't fit everything I set up in the frame, as there was a bunch more on easels to the left:
Would anywhere from 9-12 people be interested in putting together pieces for a second BZP Mosaic for BrickFair 2011, since the first one is filled up? Post here (or CF's entry), and if we gather enough interest we'll continue work on a second image.
A reminder: Spoiler tags are not to be used in the blogs unless it is hiding information that requires spoiler tags (storyline info, web content, new sets, etc.) as per the BZP spoiler policy here. Oh no!, you say. What will I do if I can't hide all of my blog approvals/large amounts of quotes/photos/crazy storyline info in my blog entries and content boxes behind spoiler tags? You can: 1. Deep link to each image, blog approval, topic, etc. 2. Create a blog entry, lock the entry, edit the
I just discovered that their "fruit flavor" one tastes better when you're eating Sour Patch Kids at the same time, which really helps when you're trying to finish off the last 3/4 of a liter of it. Also, whew! Really glad people can ford rivers.
One that would comfortably allow snacking for several people over the course of at least a week. Eat entire bag in less than two days. By myself. I wholeheartedly blame track for this.
"I don't know man, it's just too mainstream to just be clearing off islands all the time. I mean, talk about disrupting my latest eco gluten free ultra vegan steampunk organic underground garden with all the noise. Those poor tomatoes can't grow in such a disruptive and harmful environment." "Throwbots were better." DeeVee and I were talking. We decided the Bionicle universe needed some hipsterness.
I am a lazybutt and just edited the banners from last year (though I might make some more interesting ones later. Maybe.). I was going to make a larger one for people to use in their sigs, but then it was like oh wait, leaving it at the old size would probably be better seeing as people like to have multiple images in their signatures nowadays. Both link to the most recent entry for the mosaic project, which is great if you need to see if there are any updates or if someone is curious about volu
EDIT (March 10): This mosaic is filled! Keep your eyes peeled for a possible second mosaic. Thank you, everyone! The BZP Mosaic Project is back for another year! Last year's project was an extreme success, and we have a great image for this year that will be displayed this summer at BrickFair 2011: This is where you can sign up to make pieces that are up for grabs this year. Each mosaic piece will be made of a 32x32 sized baseplate. At this point, please only claim one piece. If this one
So I entered BBC Contest 61. When all of the Bionicle pieces I currently own can fit in a 8"x3"x4" box and not even fill it halfway. And I've never MOCed anything using Bionicle pieces before. Unless you count building a Bohrok from memory at LEGOLand when I was twelve. Go comment or something. Also go and comment and later vote on this one too. It's crazy manly cool.
I think that it was hilarious. There certainly will be better Superbowl halftime shows, and there certainly will be worse, but XLV's was hilarious because of just how out of control it became: Fergie: When you are combined with a bad microphone and trying too hard, you start to sound like Adam Sandler. You are a better singer than that. The people or person in control of the sound board: Some of this is partially your fault. Weird lagginess and sound issues shouldn't be happening at an event th
In other news, Ashton Eaton broke his own heptathlon world record and Yelena Isinbayeva came back after a 11 month hiatus and won the Russian Indoor meet with a vault of 4.91m this morning. Boyfriend is super adorable to listen to when he's watching the game. Especially when his team wins.
