I used to wear funny t-shirts all the time, but eventually stopped after getting tired of people trying to one-up my shirt's joke. For instance, wearing a camo shirt that says "You can't see me" and having everyone you meet come up to you and say "hay i can c u ololololol" gets old fast.
Anyone else have this problem? People ruining funny shirts for everyone?
So, hello everyone. Been kinda busy lately and I just thought I'd catch you guys up to speed on what's been going on.
As some of you may or may not know, I had a birthday on April 8th. As far as birthdays go, it was pretty lame. It was the second last day of class, so in wanting to know what to study for exams, I wasn't able to go home and instead had to stick around during the 8th and the 9th. I played a bit of LEGO Universe, so that was okay, but that was about it... The actual celebrat
Since I'm not really interested in going through the rigmarole of getting patents for these things, here are four inventions that need to exist. Go ahead, steal my ideas, just someone please invent them.
1) An iPhone that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. All I want to do is have all the features of my iPod Touch, but also be able to make calls so that I don't have to carry around both my cellphone and my iPod. I don't want 4G Internet, GPS, or any of that crazy stuff, I just want to make cal
So for fun, I thought I'd go through the different forums to find out which is the highest voted topic by Reputation Points. And then hand out pretend Internet Medals to the ones with the best score. Obviously Reputation Points are totally unbiased and a completely accurate metric for the quality of a post. ... Actually, I don't think anyone really looks at them. BUT I DID. FOR SCIENCE. The following is a list of the top 10 Comedies on BZPower based on the Reputation Points held by its f
Not too much activity on the last follow up, but oh well. I'll just leave post-counts and proto alone for now unless someone gets some really good ideas. Now, however, onto the fun part.
So we've seen the map, we have a general idea of how things work, now let's get a better picture of each of the individual forums. To recap, the forums have been given their elements for the following reasons:
Fire: Bionicle Collectibles -- Ta-Matoran make masks.
Fire: LEGO Bionicle Sets -- Ta-Matora
Okay, this was a doozy. Here's what I've come up with, let me know your thoughts and whether you're strictly opposed to anything that's been decided here:
1) What are members?
Most people liked my suggestion, but not so much the Makuta thing. To justify, what I meant was that they get the 42 Kraata powers and are charged with making sure the universe runs smoothly. If you still don't like it, then how about admins get to have Exo-Toa suits?
2) How does BIONICLESector01 work?
Looks
Okay, the survey's been out for a week, so let's see what people want.
1) Is having the BIONICLE logo as the map with each forum section being an island a good idea? If not, what would be better?
Most people seemed to like the map, although Great Being #1 has proposed an alternative (see below).
2) Do you agree with the island names? If not, what are some better ones you can think of?
Once again, no one had any major qualms with these. Terakk, though, has suggested some of his own (
Okay, so sometimes I'm pretty bad with updating my Message of the Fortnight, but the last I updated this current one was about six weeks ago. Well, the thing about that is that I'm currently in a period of transition with my Flash. I've ordered a copy of Flash CS4 (the latest version) and it's supposed to arrive at the end of October, but until such time, I'm afraid things are at a bit of a standstill. As for my old version of Flash, that's living on a virus-ridden computer several kilometres
Today I finally finished that Flash movie I told you about (link) and now I can move on with my BZP life. What with the glowing response this movie got, I think I can safely say that I will be making another one... eventually. My ultimate plan is to make a series that continues from where my comedies left off, but I can't start until Little Miss Krahka finishes the sprites for the Director and GregF (but I'm patient and willing to cut her lots of slack because of her generous offer and skill)
I finally got around to posting my first official topic as part of my job as a Fact Team member and I have to say that even I'm impressed with how it turned out. It took soooooo long to do and now that it's done, it is a thing of beauty: a list of ever single known member (minus the Piraka) and a brief summary of their history and powers. Anyway, now that this is over, I can get around to finish the next chapter of my epic which is two weeks late.
Now that I'm free from school, I have so much free time on my hands, it's not even funny. To entertain myself, I've decided to re-watch some of the movies I have. Today, I watch Fellowship of the Ring and I'm glad to say that I actually understood what was going on this time. Although the Gandalf vs. Saruman scenes could have used a little more pyrotechnics, I have a much better appreciation for the movie. In the days to come I'll be watching the rest of the series and a few other random mov
Dumbledore: Good evening and welcome to Hogwarts! This year's houses: where all the smart, attractive and/or weird people go -- Ravenclaw! Where all the evil, ugly, and/or stupid people go -- Slytherin! Where all the cool, important, and/or plot-relevant people go -- Gryffindor! And where everyone else goes -- Ryan Stiles, I mean, Hufflepuff! And I'm your Headmaster Dumbledore, welcome to Hogwarts! Come on, let's have some fun.
*Takes his place at the table.*

Whoa, that’s a full post. All the way.
Double post, oh my god.
It’s a double post all the way.
Whoa, that’s so intense. Whoa, man. Wow. Whoa. Whoa.
WHOAAAA-OH OH. OH MY GOD, WHOA MY GOD. WOOO! AW, OH MY GOD. OHHH, OHHH WOW. WOOOOOOOOO! OH MY WOWWWW. WOOOOOOOOO! YEAHHH- OHH MY—
OHH MY AHHH aw my god, look at that! It’s starting to even look like a triple post!
Oh my god it’s full on! Double post all the way across the forum.
Oh my god, [sobs] oh my god, oh god…
What does
Have you ever met or seen someone who looks like, sounds like, acts like someone else you know? It's freaky, isn't it? Especially that brief moment where you suddenly realize why they were so familiar.
I imagine this is how LEGO minifigs feel when they see a certain minifig face reused.
Repent! The end is near! I have essays and exams by the truckload in every single one of my eight courses which all must be done in the next 3 weeks.
Science: Giant exam on everything since September on the 19th.
Careers: Oral presentation next week and portfolio containing EVERYTHING due by the 12th.
Technology: Hard stuff complete, but not out of the woods yet. Only one last teeny, little assignment.
English: Huge 15% essay next week, but luckily no exam.
Spanish: Oral exam on Monda
Differences: Dooku wears black, Saruman wears white. Dooku has short hair, Saruman has long hair.
Similarities Formerly good, turned evil Expert user of magical powers Played by Christopher Lee Carries around a magical stick Wears robes Really only a puppet controlled by the main bad guy who is having him create an unstoppable army
Waaaaaaaaaaaait a minute.
I refuse to make a group or fanpage on one of those social networking sites, so I'm going to make a blog entry about this.
Do you ever find yourself sitting in class, bored, and you decide to take apart your pen and put it back together... several times?
Let me know if you do so I don't feel weird about compulsively doing it, myself.
Why, Dobby? WHY!?!?!?!?!? Your death was sadder than Moody, Burbage, Hedwig, Bathilda, Dumbledore, Sirius, and Cedric's deaths put together times a billion!
Also, they left out Phineas Nigellus, so how did Snape find them?
Okay, I'm not exactly going to say how, but I've come across a sneak preview of the next part of Destiny War. This takes place right after Axonn and Brutaka fall into the green liquid and leads right into the next part of their mission.
Here it is.
This is for listeners of TotA, readers of Wildfire, and viewers of my PSAs. I am sorry to say this, but I'm going to have to put all three of those on hold for the Artwork III contest (which is actually a really short PSA). Once I have that voiced and animated, I'll put out the next chapter of Wildfire, then edit Episode 12 of TotA, get Episode 16 recorded and editted, then another chapter of Wildfire, then I'll start working on the next PSA and hopefully things will get back to normal. *smile
Dear J.R.R. Tolkien,
Stop giving your characters so many names. It's confusing, annoying, pointless, and it makes me not want to read your books. If his name is Aragorn, just call him Aragorn; none of this Son of Arathorn, Dúnadan, Longshanks, Strider, Wingfoot, Elessar Telcontar, Envinyatar, Estel, or Throngil nonsense. You pick a name and you stick with it. He maybe gets one or two other names, but this is ridiculous.
And another thing. What's with giving the two main villains essen
