I was at a museum yesterday, there had been some kind of gingerbread creation contest there.
Most of the entries were houses or buildings, two or three of them had collapsed, but there was one that was really,
really cool.
It was a giant monster snail.
Appereantly, it had won the contest- and trust me, there was no doubt why.
The body was mainly sculped out of thick gingerbread, but it was covered
by different kinds of syrup that looked exactly like slime of different kinds.
It also had a huge track of slime/syrup behind the beast, and in it was lots of
slaughtered gingerbread people. Everything was perfectly sculped, the shell,
the head, the body, not to mention the chess board it crawled over.
It was really awesome. I might get some pictures up, but I took them
with my cellphone, and they are very dark, and the quality of them probably
won't be the best, but whatever.
I just can't describe it. It was so epic, so sinister.
Yes, that's right. It was released where I live... two days ago. Lolwut?
What happened with 9/9/09?
Anyway, that's the movie that everybody in the world should see. *Logical nod*
9 theme coming up.
...And there starts my third year on BZPower!
I was deciding between being serious or not on my anniversary, but I decided to be serious,
so thanks, BZPower, for being such an awesome site with so many awesome members!
I might make a Flash animation or an art piece or post a MOC, we'll see what I come up with for this
occasion.
About the replacement line, that is.
Greg said in the Talkback of Doom that the new line will have the same building platform
as BIONICLE. That means that we will still get BIONICLE-compatible pieces that hopefully
are not too different in design.
I don't know if I'll buy the sets from the new line. It depends on how much I like it.
My hopes are that the new line is as robotic as the BIONICLE sets are, maybe something
in the Throwbot/Slizer direction. But I stand with what I have said: BIONICLE can not be replaced.
I thought I might as well post something now that one of my biggest hobbies is about to be put to sleep.
Well, I am not very surprised. I am sad, but not surprised. We all knew that BIONICLE was going to end. Of course, some are more
chocked than others, and I understand that. This site actually exists just because of BIONICLE, and now it's ending.
BZP will certainly live on, but I doubt that things will ever be the same again.
I would've preferred if the last sets were overly epic, but a small and silent death works as well, I guess.
All of our lives will probably be greatly affected by this, but there's one thing that we all must do together.
We must keep BIONICLE alive.
I believe that there's many people like I, loyal hard-core fans that probably won't give up on BIONICLE for fifteen years or more, but I want the ones that
already doubt the continuing existance of BIONICLE to keep it from falling. Because if there are no fans, BIONICLE won't have any reason
to continue.
As for myself, I'll continue collecting sets, MOCing, and discussing here on BZP. This will have a major impact on my
life, but I'll stay.
Thank you, Lego, for giving us BIONICLE. My life would've been very boring without it.
Thank you, BZP. Without it, BIONICLE would've been out of my life years ago.
And as for a last note, I hope we'll be seeing BIONICLE again.
-VB, BIONICLE fan from 2001-2010. It's been a pleasure.
Man it is hard to come up with a good entry for BBC #56!
The BBC staff want us to "embrace the pins", but I can't find a good and creative way to do it. Grrr...
Seriously, I think that we take things just a little bit too serious on BZP now these days. Reall, why get yourself hung up on something? Even if you've made a mistake, what's so bad about that? Things happen, just shrug and move on. Things are just as bad as you make them. I've let small silly things destroy my day in the past, so I decided that, "Hey, why worry?". You may think that you've made yourself to public embarassment at times, but really. Editing your post is understandable, I guess, but collapsing and having a bad day is not. Also, try to make difference on things that are supposed to be funny and things that are supposed to be offencive. Like if you've made a mistake, and somebody posts a "facepalm" image in association with that event. That's supposed to be humor. It may not be that funny, but the person cannot have meant to harm you. Oh, and that's also a good idea; try to figure out why the person does this. Why would you've done it? Maybe this a reason too why you should not post things like that. Actually, this works on some things meant to be offensive too. Not all of them, but some.
-Hey, that's a silly idea. -Heh, I guess it is.
It works, right?
I've seen things like this happen quite a lot, so just follow this advice if something happens.
So, in short, let's laugh maniacally at ourselves.
No cats were harmed in the making of this entry.
edit: actually let's just laugh at this entry for a second because it is dumb and impossible to understand
I must say, I'm not quite as exited for it as I was last year. Yeah, I love
horror stuff and such, but this year, Halloween was just another day.
Maybe because of the fall break or something, but it just isn't as appealing
to me anymore. In any case, that gives you an actual reason to watch horror
movies, or at least something in that direction, like Sleepy Hollow, that I myself
watched. I loved it. Headless horseman for the win, everybody!
Also, I didn't go the trick-or-treat round this year. I guess that's just another excuse
to make yourself look like a total freak, but then again, if I want candy or something like
that, I buy it myself, instead of begging other people for it. And I only buy candy like,
once a week or something.
I guess it can be fun, but it's better when people don't expect it, like if you have
a sleepover in school or somehing. I did that one (or if it was two) years ago,
and it was great fun. I may do something like that in my new school.
But after all, scaring people isn't my life. Oh well.
Well, I'll have something Halloween related up in GA or the BBC soon. We'll see.
And with that said, all that is left is...
