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. (But seriously, epics is not as bad as comedies, nobo
I've seen it everywhere in the last 24 hours. On BZP. On TV news. On NPR radio. Seriously, people just complaining about something for, as far as I can tell, the sake of complaining about something.
Take this NPR thing I listened to. Two guys, both on opposite sides, talking about some political issue. Sometimes they had a good point, but both of them were just repeating stuff over and over again that basically came down to "I am right, U R wrong!" I found both of their arguments lacki
“Password?”
“Speed-fast crash.”
“Correct! And if you’ve done that, you’ve come to the ever-right place! Welcome to Triki’s Hover-Bikes, Repairs and Enhancements! If I can’t fast-fix it, you can’t fly it!”
“So, how can I ever-help you? Need a muffler? New paint style? Super charged engines that make it look like your bike’s on flame-fire?”
Yes, that was my Mystery Epic's secret weapon... it had Triki in it! These are his best quotes from the story, and since nobody is reading it and
"Okay, so Part Two is we shoot around the moon, which will shield us from earth-based fire, as well as accelerate us due to the moon's gravitational pull, which we can then use to make it to the safety of Mars."
"What's Part One?"
"Hoping Part Two works."
On this one site, there's a list of people you may know who you can be friends with, and a lot of seemingly random people have been popping up there. Now I realize that these in fact aren't random people, but BZP Members!
They exist in real life tooooo!
Well, the updates aren't really epic themselves, but they're updates about epics, so really it's all the same thing...
And, come to think of it, my epics are epic, so an update of my epic is epic. And epic epic update.
Anyway, I added the next chapter to Many Adventures. Now the next stage of the story is about to open... and you get to choose where it'll be! So make sure to read, review, and answer the latest question.
Although, really, this story is progressing very slowly. It's
I'm sure I'm not the first one who noticed, but I haven't seen it elsewhere in the few places I've looked, so I'll bring the topic to discussion now.
This are images from the bio pictures of the Glatorian from the front page of Bionicle.com (specifically, Skrall, Malum, and Strakk) Besides the nifty environments, there seems to be something else in the background... something, dare I say it, alive!
1) Well, obviously that's some scorpion-like Skrall guardian. Or a multi-legged Vorox
I just spent hours last night reading through an entire page (a veeeery long page too) of quotes from the TV series "That 70s Show." Unfortunately, the bulk of them are inappropriate for BZP, so I can't post a list of my favorites.
But without actually discussing the content of the show, I will say it was a good show, for the most part.
Finally, I got my hands on one of the Glatorian.
Target failed me, three times at three different locations. But the Lego Store pulls it out! Mind you, the trip there wasn't very fun... it was raining outside, the bus was horribly crowded, and my iPod started glitching out. (Stupid apple products... what went wrong this time, 'eh?) But it all worked out... because the shelves at the Lego store didn't look ransacked and they had all six Glatorian. I was very tempted to pick up Tarix, beca
I thought Coca Cola's new compostable cups were pretty cool. The old cups were about the only thing that weren't compostable in the dining areas... so Coca Cola's trademark was under the lable "Trash."
So now they've gone green, with cups made out of recycled compostable material and stuff. Cool idea.
But was it really worth having a special speech by the University's president on the introduction of the conpostable cup? No, really, a speech about a cup? A blog entry, maybe, but sh
I've tried to purchase them... no, seriously, I've been to three different Targets, but each one has their Lego isle ransacked. One only have a couple giant sets left, and the space was filled up with Megablock junk. (A choking to death emoticon would be appropriate right here) I saw Malum and Skrall a couple days before Christmas, but I haven't seen any since. And I didn't particularly want those two.
I might try and hit up the Washington Lego store this weekend... depending on the weath
I'm bored, and don't feel like writing a long entry... besides, you guys haven't solved the latest round of 20 Questions yet! Anyway, here's an exerp from Mony Python, the episode with Mr. Neutron. It's funny to read, but absolutely hilarious to listen to (with the accents and all).
We're Not Eskimos
Italian: You don't like it?
Carpenter: No, I didn't want to eat a salad. I wanted to find out about a man called Salad.
Italian: You're the first person to order a salad for two years
And again...
Let's Play 20 Questions. I will think up something pertaining to Bionicle, and you must ask me questions to see who it is.
Rules
1: The questions can only be yes or no questions. So "Is he pink" works but "what color is he" doesn't.
2: There can only be one question per post, and no double posting.
3: I will edit my answer into every body's post. You can only add a second question in your post if I have already edited in my response.
I am thinking of something fr
The winner is Toaraga with his entry "Xtra Carbon Copy Justice." As soon as I figure out how to change my name (I know it can be done, I just haven't used it... ever) I will become.... Xtra Carbon Copy Justice!! And when people ask why, I will point to this blog.
Anyway, congrads to Toaraga for the cool entry, as well as the runners up; Phyoohrii, Arpy, and Ta-metru_defender! I will create a blog sidebar with your entries up... eventually. I have to move back into the dorms tomorrow, so
I had a strange dream last night (or this morning, really). And, yes, this is a blog, so I think dream topics can be allowed, since half of my entries are written in a (self induced, no drugs) dreamlike state.
Anyway, I had this strange dream... and it didn't star me, crazy enough. It starred WALL-E, that robot from that one Disney-Pixar movie. (Maybe you've heard of it. ) It involved Wall-E on some spaceship fighting a space pirate on this cruise space ship. It wasn't necessarily se
This is the Final Poll! The winning entry will become my new username!
This poll will stay opened until Saturday (Jan 3rd), my last day of winter break. On that day, I will select the entry with the most votes. If there is a tie... well, I'll either start another poll or decide on my own, depending on what my mood is at the time.
You may vote for one entry, except for your own.
1: Ta-metru_defender: eXtra Crunchy Candy Jam
2: Phyoohrii: XCiting Cable Junkie
3: Arpy: Xtreme Cat Ca
Last year I wrote this jumbled up blog entry about how I would probably steer away from Bionicle and BZPower, focusing on other parts of life and whatnot.
I am eating those words.
I'm trying to grow up in other ways, but I am pretty certain that I will not leave BZP anytime soon. I hope to work on some stories in the future, and update this blog daily with my silly thoughts, interesting college encounters, and other updates, as well as contests and such. (BTW, final voting for the Name T
Okay, here's the answer to a question I posed yesterday.
What two sets did I buy for $18?
People guessed a canister and a Matoran.
Nope. Two canister sets. Specifically, two Phantoka.
The Phantoka were $5 off each, and they had the three Makuta and Kopaka. I already have Kopaka, but I never got the Makuta, and I was in the mood to buy. I couldn't decide between Antroz (with his cool mask and wings) or Chirox (his feet, thigh armor, and weapons). Vamprah, sorry, wasn't even a con
I am extremely giddy for reasons I can't explain. Because I don't want to spoil any surprises for future entries...
Anyway, I went to the bookstore today. I got my dad a book for Christmas; a sci-fi book. He's very particular about them; they have to be hard sci fi (no fantasy nonsense) and not written by women (for some reason. I guess it comes from experience that females don't write the best sci fi). And it shouldn't be part of a series... in general.
I found an awesome book that m

It's voting time!
There will be two polls with seven entries each. Persons can vote for two entries per poll. However, if they entered, they may not vote for their own entry. (Yes, I am being hypocritical here, but this ain’t a BBC Contest poll.)
The voting will run from now to approximately December 29th. Then the top two entries per poll will move onto the final round, where the winning entry will become my new screen name. If the winning entry is above 26 characters in length, I wil
Well, I didn't get a whole lot... I heard a bunch about "helping you survive through college" and stuff. But I got a few good ones...
I got a vest and some candy and a book. The best was the Lego Indiana Jones game... Apparently my sister found it at the mall without a proper case, so she got a good deal on it. I haven't played it too much (I also forgot my control pad at my dorm room) but it looks to be really fun to complete at first. (I've played the demo enough to know how to do m
