You know, I have noticed an issue in the forum software, and it has to do with the word filter. Don't get me wrong, I like the filter, it keeps bad, bad things from coming to BZP, but the word that changes to "Cool Dude" in the filter simply has got to go. I have four reasons why:
1. It's designed so people don't get their feelings hurt by having someone call them that, but in reality, it's extremely rare for a person to be called that.
2. There are plenty of other synonyms that are just as
I just realized something:
It's logical to assume that people who have these 92% things in their sigs are part of that 8%, right? Right.
There are a lot of people with the same one, the Jonas Brothers one. There are many more than 8% of the population, so it's logical to assume that some of the 92% have it in their sigs.
With me so far? Good.
Now why would people who like the Jonas Brothers have something in their sigs that would make it seem like they hated them?
This logic leads
Newbies are funny.
You see, some newbies think that OBZPCs are staff members, and that's my theory on why I'm always getting bogged down with friend requests from new members and people that I don't know.
Not that that's a bad thing, just funny.

Yesterday, my dad and I go to the local Apple store to see if we can fix my external hard drive. We get the run-around by bimbo employees, and they don't sell the power cord, which is the problem anyway. (The hard drive itself is fine, the wire itself is literally fried.) We bought another external drive as a backup, but that one's cable isn't the same model! *facepalms*
The hunt for the power cable begins!

I think I should catch you up on all of the goings-on...
July 11th: Had a fun party for my maternal grandfather's 89th birthday. I decided to try out a floating thing I got for my mom as an early birthday gift. It kept folding up on me, so I got the nickname "The Human Burrito".
Later, two cousins of mine messed with the GarageBand program on my Mac. One did some awesome impressions of Mel Kiper Jr., Lou Holtz, and Harry Caray. He's going to Appalachian State and is very interested in spo
Today: I play in a baseball game, first one of the summer season. Should be fun.
Tomorrow: Extended family coming, going to shoot aforementioned potato cannon for them.
Sunday: I has a birthday. A cookie to the guy/gal who makes the COT topic.

Yesterday, my dad and I took 1000 matchheads and clipped of the ends, then mixed it with black powder. We stuck it in the end of a PVC pipe and jammed the other end with a potato. Then we capped off the black powder end and lit it with a fuse.
The potato was sent flying through the air in two parts, and then disintegrated at the apex of its flight. A massive fireball exploded out of the potato end of the cannon, with two smoke colors and a rapid popping noise. The black powder end of the cann
I have those sets!
Gelu's awesome, but I'm not a fan of those shoulder armor parts.
Kiina's awesomer than I heard.
Mata Nui sucks.
Ackar is brilliant.
(Vastus and Stronius were backordered, so I'll be getting those later.)
Kind of an early birthday present, 'cuz it's in 10 DAYS! *is excited*
(I gotta admit, I snooped around the house and all I came across were two small Amazon boxes...)

I ordered them.
Along with a pick a brick bag to finish up a special mosaic.
Stronius and Vastus are on backorder, too bad. But I'll be building the other four.

Here's what my dad thinks about BZP:
"Oh, is that crazy Roa-Toa girl still running around?"
*facepalm*
Of course I had to correct him, mainly by telling him she's not crazy.
