Greg Janson's old ZZT games are really more frustating than fun these days.

Welp, I thought the men being proud of their tiny dicks post on Something Awful would get me my laughs for the night but I was wrong, I found my jollies in the most unsuspecting of threads.

some key quotes for non forum members:

"I have slept on a hardwood floor on top of a sheet for the last two months.

I hate each and every one of you who has an actual bed."
-Burginator, 2009



"Some of us aren't much better. My current bed has a random spring that pops up and rips my pants/cuts my leg while I sleep. I can't find the fucker when I look either."
-The General, 2009

"Do none of you benighted motherfuckers have an IKEA nearby? Nobody with a computer, net access, and to spend on an account should be sleeping on a sheet!

Love o'god, man, I'll BUY you a decent mattress, what the hell people "

In a related story, my cousin's wife's friend ['s dog's chew toy] took some pictures for her. I've been laughing with Tim over this for like a fucking hour and a half. This friend calls her photography "studio" TAINTED MEMORIES PHOTOGRAPHY. My initial thought was, holy fuck, doesn't this girl know tainted basically means BAD?

Then I googled her.

Please, visit and enjoy. I'm sure she's a nice girl but she has brought the lulz for the evening. The awesomesauce photographers on my friends list will probably agree. =)!

Why does pidgin not have a RECONNECT button?

A lot of times when my computer comes out of sleep mode Pidgin is in some connection limbo where it says I'm connected but nobody is on AIM and I have to close it and reopen it to get it working again.

OLIVER and I were drawring on iscribble earlier



Miles: *rapeface*

Adriana: Hi cousin-husband!

Miles: Incest is really fun!

Adriana: I noticed your penis is out. ... Oh, hi Joey. ... Joey, why are you in your boxers?

Joey: I hate myself.

lulz were had

Joey and Adriana are my babies, Miles is Olivrar's.

E: Joey and Adriana are siblings. Miles is their cousin. FIRST cousin. Miles and Adriana are married. Joey is fucking Miles in order to keep him around for his own uses. TALK ABOUT KEEPING IT IN THE FAMILY RIGHT

still oggling at Rune Bennicke's animations

these are straight-on animations he did on 2's, then filled in with ones. so, not keyframes or anything. the amount of detail that goes into these astounds me





this next one's my favorite

I've been really chatty on here lately.

remember when I posted that Woods of Wisdom video?
if you don't, here you go again.


well, guess who I found the blog to. one of the animators, he has pretty neat stuff.
and hey, Henrieke, looks like he likes European comics

I love getting jlist's weekly mails. this one really got me, since it dealt with my own family that plenty of people find weird since we live and have lived in the states most of our lives

"There are some things you say when you live in Japan that you'd certainly never utter back home. For example, when you give someone something it's common to be self-effacing and say, "Please accept this boring gift" as you hand it to them, something you'd never do in English. When introducing yourself in Japan, most people specify their "hobby" (in Japanese, shumi), and statements like "My hobby is playing the piano" are common here even though it sounds a little weird. Asking a person's blood type then having an in-depth conversation about it is odd, as is being reminded to "turn off the carpet" before going to bed, referring to the electric "hot carpet" heater some homes have in Japan. When a member of the J-List staff goes home for the day, I'll usually tell them ki o tsukete, which literally means "be careful," but this goodbye greeting would sound stra nge if translated into English. Then there's, "At what age did you stop taking baths with your parents?" In Japan, baths are made extra large, and parents will generally take their baths with their kids up to a certain age. It's a wholesome time for parent-child communication which the Japanese call "skinship," and something I like a lot about Japan. A common joke in anime is a character who's embarrassed when his friends find out that he was taking baths with his mother well into junior high school."

the bathing with parents thing? yeah.. I totally did that when I was little with my mom.
when my brother was way little, too. it was all three of us, sometimes; just little kids, you know? till I was about a certain age.. it wasn't a "ok.. go by yourself now" it just stopped somewhere on its own

just thought I'd share something like this on LJ, since I sometimes bring up cultural topics in IRC being all "???" at their responses of not understanding what all this weird stuff my family did

some of you have seen these, others haven't.
I think it's a little bit obvious on why these awesome scenes were removed, and I can deal with that.

At least it's a fruit pie

I suck.
so uh. Marching band. yeah.

we got Third Place in the competition we went to yesterday. yaaay!
we got to big cup from points added up from last week's competition and yesterday's. YAAAY!

I jumped up and down on the bleachers, screaming, flailing, and jumping some more. WHOOOPWHOOP!

I slipped on the end of one of the seats at the end of the jump and tumbled down however many feet. PAIN AND AGONY, but I laughed it off

now it's a day later and it hurts it way more places than where it hurt on Saturday. I wish I could stay home tomorrow, but I have Senior Project report to work on

I don't FEEL that adaptable
