Fifth Brony Anniversary

*comes out of hibernation/lurk mode*   Almost exactly five years ago, I started watching Episode 1 of MLP:FiM. It's been a long time since then and lots of things have changed, but I'm glad to still be a fan.   In the past five years, I've put together numerous song covers, was a part of multiple voice-acted projects (which were unfortunately scrapped D:), made a lot of friends in the fandom (and still regularly do so), and even attended two conventions (and after this weekend, three!). It's not

My video is actually about Bionicle!

I figured I'd hop on the bandwagon and toss up a random YouTube video from my old account!     *By "old account", I mean I don't post new videos to this account anymore, but I still use it for all my subscriptions/likes/favorites.

BrickFair Is Over

So, BrickFair is over, and I'm currently on the train heading back home.   I'm gonna be perfectly honest here.   That was the worst BrickFair I've ever attended! Because it was the only BrickFair I've ever attended. =P I'll miss all of you guys so much. :[   I'll blog about ALL THE THINGS when I can get to a computer.   ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

I haven't outright mentioned it here yet, but I do have Animal Crossing: New Leaf! I figured I'd toss a short entry on here to let you guys know if you didn't already.   I'm the mayor of a nice little town called Everfree (Here's my town flag). Nice villagers, nice building layout. I've got a big ol' orchard of every single fruit up in the corner of my town too.   Mostly been working on collecting everything (furniture, clothing, fish+bugs+fossils), paying off town enhancements (I should have Br

You're Walking In The Woods...

There's no one around, and your phone is dead.   Out of the corner of your eye, you spot him: SHIA LABEOUF ----- Many of you who frequent the interwebs have probably heard this viral song by Rob Cantor and the meme it spawned.   What you may not know is that Rob Cantor also happens to be a member of my favorite band, Tally Hall! (Rob's the one with the yellow tie)   So yeah, I find this whole thing sort of awesome. Tally Hall has all sorts of crazy and catchy songs just like this, and

Brickworld 2013

So... Pretty late question, I know, but anyone here going to be at Brickworld Chicago tomorrow?   I plan to be there (during public hours) as usual, so in the off chance a fellow attendee spots this blog entry, look out for the guy in the dark green BZPower shirt and the backpack, walking around snapping photos of every single MOC with my phone. If you see me, stop me and say hi!   Sadly there are never very many BZP members I've been able to find at the smaller Brickworld convention (I only met

Do What You Want 'cuz A Pirate Is Free!

...or at least SHOULD be...   After searching about 3 stores yesterday, I FINALLY found one with the new sets! I got Toa Onua (Who is awesome), and Takanuva (WHO IS EXTREMELY AWESOME). =P   Yesterday I played for a long time on Pirates Online, and I even recruited a couple BZP members for it in the past couple days! At this point, our Guild (club) contains: David Wavetamer (me) Michael Wavetamer (my brother who stole my last name. =P) Samuel Goldrage (DudeNuva) Sven Lockshot (Torhuki) Takuma

How To Block Ads And Other Images

Lately, I've seen a good number of BZPower members complaining about some members' recent banners, and some disabling all signatures or even leaving BZP temporarily because they don't want to see them. There's no need! Since I didn't see any existing guides already, here's my tutorial on how to use Adblock Plus to block online ads and other images!   You've probably seen some members mention the Adblock Plus browser extension before, but you may not know what it is or how it works. This add-on

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

Okay, so as a few of you know already, I went specifically to the Six Flags Great America park the other day, because it was closest to my area (which I will not tell to you. =P). I got there probably somewhere around 9:30 AM or so, and stayed until... waitaminute... 9:30 PM!!! Oo... Okay, readers, I literally didn't notice that until I typed this. =P I didn't get photos, unfortunately (you aren't allowed to have a backpack or anything with you on the rides, they make you leave it at the beginn

Webcomics Emulating Life

This latest comic is so totally me.     I was even planning on playing my new Half-Life 2 for the first time this evening before I read this!   Y'see, a couple months ago I bought Orange Box at a crazy $10 price it was selling at for only one weekend. I haven't been able to play it due to two things: My computer's not powerful enough, and it only had 1GB hard drive space left (each game can be about 5-6GB). I knew I wouldn't regret buying it, though, and I was right. As of a few days ago I

Hooray For Excessive Complicatedness!

Hoo, boy. I guess I owe you guys an explanation for not having blogged since August.   ...   ANYWAYS, life's been good. Working full-time for my dad's been great, I gots loads of cash. Which I haven't been spending. Yeah.   So I plan to remedy that by buying myself a $900 gaming laptop with Windows 7 that came out yesterday (which is veeeeery nice, can't wait until I buy it)! I also want to buy myself an XBox 360 Elite sometime, now that they've come down in price so much.   So what else is

Guess Whaaaat?

I'm BAAAAACK!   That's right, A couple days ago, I bought me a LIFETIME PREMIER MEMBERSHIP.   Now you may be thinking "It's about TIME...", or you may be thinking "Who in the world is this guy?", but it all comes down to this:   I again have access to a blog with which to spread my insanity and randomness as far as I can reach! And I can feel happy knowing I'm supporting my favorite site ever!     ~

Have I Ever Mentioned I'm A Geek?

I just installed Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) on my HP Touchpad tablet, while keeping the default Palm WebOS intact so I can choose which OS I want to boot when I turn it on. It's so awesome~   Examples of some stuff I can do now: Minecraft Netflix Google Earth Steam Mobile (<3) Other fun Android things So yeah, fun stuff.   Also ponies tomorrow!   ~ (A VTOAHMKEARH)

So, It's My Birthday!

For obvious reasons, I haven't blogged in a while. Hence, I'll have to write up another one of those huuuuuge what-I've-been-up-to blog entries to make up for it. In the meantime, though, quick list of stuff I got for my birthday (so far, but I'm not sure I'm gonna get any more): $50 from my grandmother Like 10 mini Reese's cups (my favorite candy EVAR, by the way) Sandish-green T-shirt with oooold classic Mountain Dew logo Blue T-shirt with a whole lot of reasons why being a guy is awesome (Exa

I Can Has Blog?!

This is my testing having a Blog for the next week. If I like it enough, I may buy Premier! I don't have much time to post right now, and I may or may not post multiple entries per day.   Hmm, I guess this lair isn't so secret anymore. Oh, well! Anyhoo, my hobby is to tame various kinds of Rahi, hence my name changes on BZP. I've of course got a "lair" for me and my pets, and I've decided to open it up to BZP members for the next week!   Well, today I'm actually headed off to Six Flags with my

Wow, has it really been since the 9th that I last blogged? I need moar ideaz...   For now, at least, Laughin'Man posed a good question chatting with me the other night. Anyone care to theorize on this quite interesting point? Comment away!   ~

In Which Avohkah Tamer Spends Too Much Money

I just bought every one of the Series 6 minifigs in one shopping trip, without a cheat sheet and without getting any doubles/extras!   I swear, they must have had like 8-10 minotaurs in that end-cap display.   No photos unless you guys really want 'em, because I'm lazy and don't feel like digging around for my camera right now. =P

I'm Going To Have Fun Today!

I'll slightly recap what I did yesterday, as I didn't do an evening Blog post as I had planned. Yesterday I had some fun talking with Laughin'Kitty (Laughin'Man), -Legolas- (DudeNuva), and RC-1344 Tor (Torhuki) about our future plans in the MMO Pirates of the Caribbean Online. It was the first time I and LM had Tor in our instant messaging buddy lists yesterday, but we all had a fun time.   As for today, I actually plan to run out the door and hopefully get to see The Dark Knight any minute no

I Am Insane.

Completely, entirely insane. Clinically insane.   Why, you may ask?   Gaze upon my awesomeness!   Yes, that is what it appears to be. No, it is not 'shopped. Just an extremely good sale at my local Wal-Mart.   Oh, yeah, if any of you were planning to steal some, don't bother. I've got the perfect defense system activated and guarding them. Behold my Lazorcat Defense System!     EDIT: Hey, well whaddayaknow? I found another Axalara not pictured here just in the other room. Go figure! =P
