NEWFRIENDS

Oh God the influx of new idiots in my LS in FFXIV is staggering. Can you people please stop asking questions that can easily be answered by thinking for five seconds?
Yes, fishing requires bait.
No, your equipment doesn't work as well when it's broken.
I MEAN AM I A FUCKING GENIUS OF VIDEO GAMES FOR FIGURING THIS SHIT OUT ON MY OWN?
Anyway here we go.
Also my Wednesday entry inexplicably returned. After some careful analysis I found Blogger (or Blogspot as I still call it) to be having problems.

So, in Walking Dead, the female lead has long hair. Because I guess hairties are in short supply in zombie-infested Georgia, she sometimes has the top layer tied up in a little knot to keep it out of her eyes.

Now, I'm aware she has people doing her hair off-camera with, like, pins and hairspray and stuff but I thought, maybe you can actually do that - tie some hair in a knot with no ponytail holder.

Like so many things, this would be useful for both the Zombie Apocalypse and motherhood.

You know you're off to a good start when the first entry is about "hair you saw in a TV show".
And yet another reason I don't watch TV: a show about the zombie apocalypse becomes drama between a woman and her man.
OH EXCUSE ME, I THOUGHT WE HAD BLOOD THIRSTY UNDEAD TO DESTROY.
THIS CAN DEFINITELY WAIT FOR YOUR LOVERS' TIFF.
Here's a picture of her in high school going to the prom (why am I looking at this?)--
holy shit what year did you go to high school? '92?

So, years ago (no I won't say how long ago-- it's been over a decade), I went to Junior Prom.

NINETEEN NINETY MOTHERFUCKER

(That dress got a lot of wear, I wore it to my best friend's Junior Prom the next year, and my sister wore it to a dance or two, and I think it got worn to wedding and I also wore it to Greek Formal where I met my future husband. But this isn't about that).

Greek formal?

I always end my Japanese class feeling really discouraged. This sucks. I can brain today, I have the dumb. I even said that Japanese (well, I said, 頭が回らない*).

You said what?
You said--
I'm thinking the phrase you were looking for is 「頭が上がらない」
回 is a counter for occurrences (first time, second time, etc) and also game scores and baseball innings (I think I was barely paying attention during the sports unit).
I think it's a typo, though, so I'm not sure why I'm going on about this.
Although maybe not because I can't get my IME to recognize "agaranai" as what you typed.
I don't know why this is so interesting to me but it is.
Anyway

*anyone know how to do Japanese quotation marks in LJ?)

quotes on a Japanese keyboard replace [ and ], dipshit.

I'm so tired from getting up at 5am and babysitting Theo all day for the past two days - but that's not even why I can't talk in Japanese. It's just like, a mental block or something. I'm forgetting the littlest damn things, like whether or not a particle comes after time

it doesn't.

(it doesn't)

Oh. So what's the fucking problem?
Also looking up the phrase for "o'clock" in a dictionary confirms it's a suffix and therefore wouldn't need a particle so maybe you should look into this shit a little more.
I'm feeling so dumb and sorry for myself right now. Let's play encourage Debby in the comments.

Let's not.
Seriously, though. Time moves different now or something. Starting in about 2005 it's like we hit a time-warp and now time shoots by so quickly and my 20s are almost over. Anyone else feel this way?

No.
The last five months fucking crawled, what are you talking about?

Would you live in the perfect house or apartment rent-free if you found out a brutal murder had taken place there and it was rumored to be haunted? Why or why not?

Yes because 1. there's no such thing as ghosts and 2.
Actually that's the only reason.
And even if there are ghosts you think I give a fuck about some dead pussy? I would fucking murder that ghost again.
Everyone knows ghosts only gain power when you're afraid of them so if you are utterly fearless and threaten to choke a bitch they'll just leave.
That's why I never understood why movies like The Grudge and The Ring (and other shitty American remakes of shitty Japanese horror movies) are supposed to be scary. You could walk faster than the "horror" of The Grudge. It's a little blue boy who crawls very slowly down the steps.
It'd probably take me 6 months to even realize he was trying to bite my ankles.
And then I do realize he's there and I think "oh I can overpower a 6 year old" and there you go.
Then there's The Ring, holy shit. Dead psychic girl scares you to death, really? If I had her twitching in my face I'd just, I don't know, move away from her? What can she do?
Due to various giftcards, Josh has, like, $50 in iTunes credits. And he never buys iTunes (he buys CDs).
BUYING MUSIC?
HA.
I've been reading this blog for about 15 minutes now and I don't even know what to say about half this shit. I'm reading about Borders closings and Winnie the Pooh DVDs. My life has officially hit rock bottom.
Hi flist,

I need advice regarding my belly. It's not my weight - I'm happy where I am and content with my body and my life choices.

THIS IS THE CHOICE I MADE. TO COMMENT ON THIS ENTRY.
But my belly is poochy. It has been since I had William.

Situps.
AM I A FUCKING GENIUS FOR FIGURING THIS SHIT OUT?
2. Today he had his first real meltdown in a public place, and I had to turn around and leave the post office before our turn in line. I carried him out, kicking and screaming. He cried the entire way home. Signs of things to come, I guess.

One thing I do have to say is at least she seems involved with her spawn.
Can't say many nice things about Livejournal users so better bring them up as they come--
Nobody really spoke about jobs (unless I asked outright what they do, and most of the time I didn't) because conversation was about where we lived, our SOs, how big the margaritas at this place were (seriously they are like bowls) and children. Lol.

YOU IDIOTS WON'T EVEN BE ABLE TO FIND ME FOR OUR 10 YEAR HIGH SCHOOL REUNION. I WILL BE SO FAR GONE.
I'm 28. Not that big of a deal except while I was rocking William to sleep I realized I was 18 ten years ago. Woah.

I was playing PSO on my Dreamcast 10 years ago.
And those were great times.
Oh but have no fear, PSO2 is coming out next year.
I'm sure that'll be a great video game.
Fuck you, Sega.
I mean look at this. You couldn't find a more cynical attempt at digging up interest in PSO if you tried.
LOOK IT'S THE FOREST IN HIGH DEF!
NO MORE BULLSHIT, WE PROMISE!
Also you know it'll be bullshit because the new "features" of this game aren't even adequately explained. It's just a ton of words that explain exactly nothing. Cut-in Event? What's that?
Dynamic Combo Customization, what?
Not that any of this matters because none of this shit will make it into the final product and it'll just be Phantasy Star Universe again, or as I call it the second worst thing to happen in my lifetime.
Anyway I have shit to do I guess. This blog kind of turned into rants about video games but it usually does that anyway so goodbye~
