Story Inconsistencies

The following discusses quotes from the latest comic, Comic 14 and the latest entry in Takanuva's Blog. If you have yet to read either of these and don't want to be spoiled, don't read the spoiler. Just to confirm that I'm using it correctly.   » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Anyway, here's a quote from the comic.    But they have...     I don't have the evidence from Bionicle Legends 11 yet, but I'm pretty sure there's an even greater description of this conflict w

Story Finished

So, yeah, at 50,281 words, I finished my story for NaNo. Like, legitly finished too. I was actually getting worried as I was writing the final scenes, wondering it it would make it over the cut, and it just barely did. I expect when I got back to re-edit and trim the fat, it'll drop below the mark. That's what happened to the one I wrote last time. Although this time I don't have as many scenes that would be as unnecessary. Plus, I would estimate that a good third of it is fighting scenes. I wen

Stop Me

Stop me whenever the titles to the Mata Nui Saga news bulletins get too outlandish.   Because my creativity is like arsenic; toxic in large quantities.   And also toxic in small quantities, if that simile holds. Wait, let me rethink this...

Sticky Studying

I say that because I'm in my room and I'm all sweaty and sticky because this ########### room is like a sauna. It hasn't been this bad all year, but the heat and humidity is making it unbearable. I mean, seriously, it's midnight and I'm sure it's round seventy in my room (or more... MSN says Seattle is at 72 at midnight. I seriouslly feel like using rofanity again!) These dorm rooms suck at keeping cool... there's no AC, there's no air circulation, there's just a heater. They make good in t

Stickers Galore

Just because it happened, I had to take a screen shot as proof and a lasting memory of happiness.     Yes, I, Lego Online Club Member xccj01, did make it to the top ten sticker modules on MyLego.com. It is a grand honor to receive this recognition.   By the time I refreshed the page after having taken a screen shot, I was booted off and replaced by some dude who squeezed in a bunch of large, blurry stickers into one slot.   Yeah, I'm not quite sure what determines how you get on that page,

Star Wars was great

Man, that was quite a movie. Some great space sequences, good light sabor duels. Dialog was okay, but I wasn't expecting much more.   Lots of good shocking moments. I mean, I totally saw Darth Binks coming, but Reys dad being C3P0 was quite the surprise. It was also quite a shock when Chewbacca betrayed the Rebels to the stormtroopers. Didn't see that coming.   Oh, sorry if I spoiled anything, but yeah seems like a good movie, or at least one fans will complain about but watch a dozen times any

Star Trek

Be warned, there's a possibility of a few inferred spoilers, but nothing specific enough to hide it all in a tag. Proceed at own risk.       Well, I got to see an advanced screening at the University for free... and it was a spur of the moment thing too. I passed by the HUB and saw a line of people waiting, so I looked up what show they were watching and it was Star Trek. Considering I was planning on paying to see it this weekend, I took the chance and got in line. (Some minor stuff like

Squid Eye

Wouldn't you know it, I was REALLY bored while taking pictures of my BBC entry, so I put a few things together and took a shot of it, and then spruced it up a bit on Paintshop Pro. I was thinking about writing a short comedy about it, just to get some of my writing back into the BZP forums outside of SoMN. But then I remembered that a picture is worth a thousand words, and my comedy would've probably been about 300...   Which didn't stop me from throwing in about 20 more words, not to mention

Springtime... Snow?

Now that was the oddest thing. I heard on the radio that it was "snowing", but I couldn't see any snow. The little white things that fell from the sky? Hail. I know... I had just walked into the dining hall after braving the weather, and it was hail. But it had turned into rain. Not snow. Obviously the radio people, or their sources, were exaggerating.   So I hop on a bus, heading to Target to (not return Lewa) but to buy a table for my room... and as the bus moved towards the mall-like

Spot The Minifigure Game!

I got a little bored while taking picts of my latest BBC entry.   Here's hoping the image doesn't make my blog explode...     First person to get it right... get to post about it first. Ha ha.

Spoiler: Smaug Eats Everybody

Wow, Hobbit II AKA Desolation of Smaug was amazing. Like, really good. Sure, it wasn't exactly like the book... but it was better.   One thing I can say that's spoiler free was that the IMAX 3D showing was good and almost worth the money. (Almost... it was very pricy!) Since they filmed at a higher rate than normal, the movements were supposed to be more "natural" but last year I found them rather jerky and bothersome, and at points in detracted from the movie in general. But maybe that's just m

Spinning Rocka Head

Gosh, I've been here for 11 years now. It's kinda sad to see BZP nowadays, where the only discussions in the forums seem to be arguments... granted, it was like that 11 years ago, there were just more people doing it. But it's not quite as big a community as before. But there are still lots of cool people here, and conventions are always super fun, and where else will I blog about random things?   Anyway, been reeeeeeeally busy at work. They've officially nicknamed me Jego, cause I like Le

Spikels Mixels Review

Click Here For Review Probably not the first review of the new Spikels, but gosh it's gotta be one of the first. (Not that it really matters, I know most people barely read the reviews anyway.) Still, I am happier with these three than a lot of the others! Lots of character here!

Spiderman Was Amazing

Ha, see what I did with the title there?   Yay Midnight showing! Okay, it wasn't like a crowd of super geeks who all dressed up or anything, but it was a fun crowd... it's more fun when there are multiple people laughing at the jokes. Turns out I didn't really need to arrive an hour and a half early, tho. At least not at the smaller local theater.   As for the actual movie... well, I don't know where to begin? Or I do, but that would be spoiler-y. Sufice to say, I thought it was a great mov

Spell Check Is Back!

My Google Toolbar (on IE) spellcheck option is finally working on BZP again. This last month, I've been getting an error every time it tries to check spelling on the forum. I'm not sure what the issue was, since it worked elsewhere on IE, and auto spelling didn't work on FireFox on BZP either. (But it did on Chrome... but I don't really use Chrome too much.)   Basically, for the last month I've been flying blind on BZP. AKA I've just been typing and spelling to my best ability, and when I ty

Speculation on Future Spider-Man Sets

Okay, so I was looking at the selection of Spider Man figs showed at ComicCon, and I was thinking about the kinds of sets they could make out of them. As far as I could tell, there were only two villains: Dr. Doom and Venom, and a Spidey set would need to have a good set of villains in addition to Spider and allies. Perhaps some of them are repeated thru the sets, like Loki was for the Avengers sets. But since there don't appear to be other Marvel character sets (No X-Men ) it looks like Spi

Speakith Of 09

You may not believe this, but I actually posted a very lengthy blog entry about the new summer 09 sets when Black Six first posted his collection of Toy Fair pictures. However, the computer ate the entry and left me with nothing... So I'm going to try this again, but keep it short and simple, in case it gets lost again.   » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Mata Nui: Yellow = cool, I don't care if it's not gold.

Sorry Toaraga

Although my blog and name change records were unaffected by the recent forum blackout, I just realized that all my posts as "Xtra Carbon Copy Justice" are gone. Now it's like I never used that name on the forums... luckily the contest is still here in this blog, some pages back.   Anyway, it doesn't make a great prize when most of the evidence disappears, so sorry Toaraga.   And, no, I am not changing it again.

Sore Throat

It came up out of nowhere and it just won't go away.   And life doesn't stop when you get sick. For me, it always has the unpleasant timing of speeding up.

And that was just the beginning of it.   Anyway, not a good day. To sum it up, I'm an ill, financially poor, antisocial loser.   Yes I'm being negative again.

Somn Ch. 64

Yes. Seriously, this epic is on it's 64th chapter, and these chapters are getting longer each time I write them. I have absolutely no idea how anyone could start this story from the beginning right now and get hooked... this is primarily for the few of you left who've continued to read it even through all the low points (AkA the months I go without updating it)   The newest chapter is here, for all you too lazy to cruise the epic forum.
