  1. Yeah, I bought myself some new shirts at American Eagle, brought them home, and one was almost immediately shredded by my Quick cat.Another cat I was temporarily taking care of shredded my jeans because he insisted on climbing halfway up them and hang there for a bit. They're adorable scamps, aren't they?
  2. Certainly, and one of the best things is neither is guilty of committing my pet peeve
  3. Conflating magic realism with genre fantasy. You usually see this with people who feel that fantasy authors don't get the praise from academia that they should. These same people also have limited ideas of a critique being an expression of opinion. I just don't see why you enjoying something means there should be a university course about it. Just enjoy it yourself and with like minded individuals.
  4. Because she wants to illegally smuggle barrels of pugs into Iowa.
  5. But who really wrote Shakespeare? Did Bacon write Shakespeare? Doubtful, for as tasty as Bacon is, it has never shown itself to fry in creative juices... just its own fat. Did Oxford write Shakespeare? Once again, it's doubtful for I do not recall a single use of the Oxford comma in the entire Shakespearean canon. After analyzing the evidence, I believe that Shakespeare was not written. It was neither created, and it can not be destroyed. It arrived from the Elizabethian dimension in the late 16th century in a hole of space-time caused by the Satanic rites of the last tribe of Neanderthals. It will one day spell doom for our world.
  6. Reading a lot of books now. The idea is, come the new year, I can finish them all rather quickly and have a nice head start on my book-a-week goal! Hoo-rah! 1) The Trial - Franz Kafka 2) The Judging Eye - R. Scott Bakker 3) Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare? - James Shapiro 4) Rights From Wrongs - Andy Bershowitz 5) We Have Only This Life to Live: The Selected Essays of Jean-Paul Sartre 1939-1975 6) The Spanish Civil War- Hugh Thomas (I don't expect finishing this for a while yet)
  7. Great, did we build The Shard on an ancient Indian burial ground?
  8. What a bunch of lame-o's.
  9. Yeah, you'll want to fix that. This will help you learn, I suppose, but you should be able to get a PnP (Plug and play) drive like kaymyth mentioned. You might also be able to install your own in the laptop.
  10. Once you get used to it, you'll hate everything else. UIs are sooo annoying
  11. I think it's been determined I'm the Uncle no one knows but manages to show up at all family events without being invited. Or the drunk Uncle. Or the one asking for money. I'm an Uncle, is what I'm saying
  12. And he doesn't even finish them! Just enough so that you know he was there and you have to throw the rest out or risk his gross Santa diseases.
  13. That reminds me of a couple other songs based on Saint Nicolai himself!
  14. I've seen that around! I may have to give it a shot.
  15. That might be worse than the one time I made a hot dog quesadilla!
  16. I use to sip ketchup through a straw at restaurants.
  17. It's a process. Once your shell of a body has been drained of its soul, it will be filled with some foul essence that will transform you into a roynish caricature of your former self! Or maybe I'm thinking of eating the new mozzarella sticks at McDonalds, what am I? A doctor of filosophizing?
  18. How could you accidentally downvote THAT! Well, I fixed it, and here's another cat-related "kiss" picture as well for the thread:
  19. Does your work normally have a bunch of calls? Because those sound like automated spam-calls that are sent out just to see if someone will answer... I got quite a few of them a few months back >_< So maybe if you have a much lower call volume, these calls are able to get through? Maybe it isn't some jerk manager shopping his employees?
  20. And I feel they did not overdo it either. So often, it seems "strong female character" is just "strong male character who we changed the gender to, and have we mentioned she's FEMALE? LOOK AT HOW FEMALE SHE IS!"
  21. The Malazan quote that sticks with me is the following:
  22. It's been years since I've played that! Looks like fun times for you are ahead... if you can avoid Holy Water! I've been seeing that around. It's been a while since I've bought a board game... because I have no one to play them with!
  23. Hmmm.... *sprinkles Holy Water on Allomancy* The Power of Christ compels you!
