I just got accepted into graduate school. My dream program. I feel excited, and I also feel guilty for feeling excited because I'm also still mourning. None of this makes sense.
"He is only a dog", but he is human enough to be a great comfort.
As I type, my best and oldest friend lies in my lap, drifting in and out of consciousness. He has not eaten in more than a day, nor has he drank anything in that period except a small amount of water administered by syringe. He can barely move, though he keeps trying. It has been eighteen years since he entered my life and I am not ready for him to leave it. He's one of the few remnants of my childhood, which is perhaps why I
i recently had an Actual Nightmare where I got banned from bzpower. like the kind where you wake up and have to check just to reassure yourself that it's not real. it's funny--it's not like i really come on here very much anymore. it's not like anyone comes on here very much anymore. if my account were to actually be banned it would make no difference in my life.
when i joined bzpower, i was eight; now i find myself uncomfortably close to thirty. thirty still seems so old to me. i could nev
The new Bonkles storyline, should it be a reboot, will be massively hated by just about everyone Should it not be a reboot, there will still be a strong contingent of people who dislike it and refuse to accept it as canon BZP will be overwhelmed by the fighting over whether the old or new stuff is better YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
"Elizabeth? Why is your mother a ghost?" (Made 1000 times better by Booker's tone of voice while he says it) Honorable mention goes to "Well, I want a puppy, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get one!" from the same game. (And if you don't know what game I'm referring to, we can't be friends.)
Originally posted this on reddit, where it unfortunately collected a total of zero tears had only one person address it. It has been edited for profanity but otherwise unchanged. DISCLAIMER: This wasn't originally intended to be a rant, even though it turned into one. Just know that, despite everything I am about to say, I loved Bioshock: Infinite. It's just that I hated most of it. I thought Booker and Elizabeth's interactions were the best part of the game. The combat was lackluster and de

You know, when the leak of Halo 1-3 on the Steam database happened two weeks ago, I was so excited! These games have a bearable control scheme now! I can actually play them! (Well OK, I already play Halo 1 on the PC, and there is a Halo 2 for PC that I've never played. But I digress.) And then one day later, Microsoft said "lol no we're not putting Halo 3 on PC, or any Halos on Steam why would you think that" I just want you all to know that I'm still bitter. (What do you mean, "seriously
This is it. There are two days until the class trip to Japan. This will be the first time I will have left the US. I will be living with a Japanese family for nine days. I have never been less confident in my Japanese-speaking abilities; not even when I first started learning the language.
I'm on episode 12, and I have to say, I like it. It's kind of interesting, actually - I like how the protagonist is not especially a guy I'd call "good". And the most unambiguously good character I've seen so far is a soldier for the evil empire. I wish I saw more works like that. -Canama
I never liked cartoons as a kid, really. Never watched them. I don't really like them now, either. Is that why I don't really "get" the MLP love? -Canama
I will try to watch through the entire first episode of MLP:FiM. I've never gotten through much of this show before. But I will watch the entire episode and see if my opinion changes. Two minutes in, already miserable. EDIT: Five minutes in, contemplating suicide. -Canama
