    Also known as, I forgot this blog even existed.
     
    This seems to be one of those nights where I sit here and ask myself "Why? Why do I keep coming back to this site, though I never actually do anything on it?"
     
    Perhaps it is because doing so has become so engrained in my blood after years of coming here that I can't shake the habit, or maybe I return in the hopes that I will stumble upon an old friend or two, forgotten in the voids of the internet and time...
     
    In any case, if anyone reads this, how are you this fine night/morning/afternoon/evening/timeless-void-in-which-you-live?

    The Wee Beasty

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    So someone left this little furry ball that appeared to be alive on my doorstep last week... It was making the cutest little trilling noises, so I took it in. It disappeared after a few days, and I just found it in my quadrotritecale supply... Except now there are five hundred of them! Can someone please help me identify this wee beast, so that I may avoid such problems in the future?

    It's true. At a friend's request, I put some Miley Cyrus songs on it... Immediately afterwards, it refused to turn on. I hit the reset button, which erased the aforementioned songs, and it started working again. XD
     
    ...To clarify, this is one of the Sony MP3 players, given the name of the old cassette players... Dunno why they used that name again, but they did... Meh. Though, y'know, if they make cassettes of Miley Cyrus it could just as well have been the old Wlakman that my mom has packed away... =l

    So I was thinking recently, what would it be like if we could actually build a computer into someone's brain? And what if, like, then they found a way to make this cheap enough for the common person to buy and have inserted? Wouldn't that be weird? After that tangent, my brain went to thinking 'bout other stuff...
     
    ...Then it came back up with the question, "Who would dominate that industry?" Further thinking revealed to me that it would once more be a battle of Microsoft vs. Competitors, in which Microsoft would probably dominate the industry. But what would that be like? What issues would that have?
     
    Can you imagine having a version of Windows in your brain? What would happen if it crashed? Would it have disastrous effects, or just be a nuisance? On one hand, if it was built correctly, it would just be a nuisance:
    "Wha-? Oh, hang on a second guys, my brain just crashed again... Almost got it... Aaaand, we're good. You were saying...?"
     
    But it could also be horrible:
    "So, there we were, standing in the rain, waiting for a taxi when she looks at me, right? Well then I say 'Hey, Babe. What's your na-...Na-...Na-...Na-..."
    "Um... Jack? Jack? 'Ello, Jack, you there? Oh @!#$%. His brain crashed! Quick! Someone, call an ambulance!"
     
    Of course, in the case of this situation, any hospital worth its cost would probably have a team of engineers on hand 24/7.
     
    Another possible situation would be that of a brain crash being fatal, in which case they would most likely put in several redundancies, failsafes, etc.
     
    So yeah. That's my brain in the early hours of the morning for you... Thoughts? Comments? Something? Please don't tell me I'm the only one who has seriosuly considered this... -.-

    New Name

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    Tea > Coffee

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    Tea is better than coffee. The letter C comes before T, and the alphabet is arranged in order of importance, therefore Tea is better. And if you think C is more important than T, you're wrong. If that was the case, Coffee would be better than Tea, but Coffee is worse than Tea. And if you still think it might be the other way around, you're reading the alphabet backwards. Another reason tea is better is that it takes more tasty cups of it to get the same caffeine buzz.

    Skippy, the Kangaroo of Love was deeply saddened. Since he was but a young kangaroo of three, he had had a habit of removing love from himself, working on the assumption he would always have enough to go around, and placing it in the hearts of those who needed it.
     
    But poor, poor Skippy; Alas, by the time he way twenty he had given all but twenty-five percent of his love away. He had always assumed that placing his love in the hearts of others would fill him with happiness at having helped his fellow sentient beings. But this was not true, for he found himself a lone island of cheer in a dark and hurtful world.
     
    His heart, he found, was dark and cold as obsidian, his feet even more so. It was with all this in mind that he opened the first business to deal in hearts and heartbreaks: Skippy’s Store O’ Hearts. His prices, he decided as a result of his cold and dark heart, would have to benefit him more than the customer.
     
    The store sold things as follows: Recognition from s/he whom you love, one hundred pecks. A passing “Hello, [insert name here]”, two hundred and fifty-three hugs. An “Oh, hi. How are you?” and following conversation, seven hundred hugs per every five minutes. Going out to coffee or some other such trivial meeting, one thousand, five hundred pecks. For a date, it was much more. Fifty thousand, nine hundred and seventy-six hugs, add nine hundred for every following date.
     
    By the time he had made his seventh sale, Skippy found he had been filled with all the love he had lost, with one difference. This time, he told himself, it’s all for me! I will not share my love with any other being on this planet, this solar system, this galactic arm, this galaxy, or this universe or anywhere else!
     
    It was this that triggered a change in Skippy. Somewhere deep down inside, a switch had been flipped. Within weeks, all sentience was lost, and Skippy became as those who had fallen in love with themselves before him. He wandered off into the wild, ignoring people as they called to him.
     
    One month later, he was caught in a trap, stuck in a cage, and shipped overseas to America. There he was placed in a pen in the San Diego Zoo, where he resides to this very day, a warning to all young humans and animals alike. A plaque on his cage reads “Skippy, Kangaroo of Love: Beware all ye who read this, you, too may become like this kangaroo, a once sentient being who fell in love with himself, lost all sentience, and was caught by hunters.”

    Tangled

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    Good movie. I saw it yesterday. Lots of actual humour, some edge-of-my-seat moments (but that might have just been waiting for it to end so I could get rid of the liquids from my medium soda), and good characters. Over all, I would recommend it. The best part is, it's a Disney princess movie that isn't all fluff and similar stuff that ruins a good story. =O

    Who's Superior?

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    I'm starting to question my position as a superior entity to my cat...

    I feed the cat when she's hungry (I even give her butter squid stuff on occasion) I pet the cat when she requests it I let the cat in and out the door at her whim She can get me up at 2 A.M. to play I keep her mug (yes, she has her own mug, and it's all she'll drink from) filled with water So, who's the superior one? All I get is kitty squints and purrs.

    BEFORE READING DIRECTIONS PLEASE CHECK TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A CAT!!!
     
    Necessary Components: Cat, Catnip Treats, narrow area (preferably a kitchen)
     
    1.) Summon cat to you by shaking can of treats.
     
    2.) Find out that you already subconsciously removed lid from can of treats.
     
    3.) Race around floor on hands and knees trying to locate and pick up more treats than the cat is able to find and devour.
     
    4.) Repeat for maximum enjoyment.

    And it is not good. My sister pointed out to me that the only thing English majors are good for is correcting other people's grammar and teaching other people to be English majors. This lead me to the realization that in the future, the United States may become a nation of English majors and Lawyers. Now I'm scared. O.O

    Video Games

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    It's fun to turn up the volume so loud on large speakers that while using the .50 caliber in Blackhawk Down I get complaints from the rest of my family that the floor upstairs is shaking. =3

    What.

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    I bought the cleaned version of A Thousand Suns off of Amazon... Why do they still have the phrase "Mother ######er" clearly audible in "When They Come For Me"? >.<

    Linkin Park

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    For once they have an album I actually want to buy, rather than just listen to a random smattering of songs from various albums. I don't see why people are complaining about it. =l

    The Mothia

    By Metallic O'Dalek,

    They're out to get me and my family. They're everywhere we go, and seem attracted to us. Me and my sister have both seen them at school, even though we are both at different schools on opposite sides of town. And it's always the same kind of moth, too. I swear, it's like some kind of insect mafia. O.o
