    That's true. Not all babies are born with blue eyes. Even among white babies there are exceptions, and the darker the skin, the more melanin, and therefore the baby's eyes tend to be darker. But for the eyes of a baby to be that pitch black? I think that's slightly impropable. But I am not a baby-expert, so I'm not 100% sure. And then there is this thing that these baby's eyes look totally CGI or at least copy-pasted.

    My first thought after episode 10: My second thought after episode 10: Oh well.

    I finally understood why you should put knives on the dish dryer with sharp end down. Apparently otherwise you can stab yourself in an elbow by accident. And it hurts. Ouch.

    I saw Zootopia today. God, that was absolutely amazing.

    I have recently bought myself a bottle of some pretty fancy carrot juice. On the label there was a "fun fact". Fun fact consisted of a picture of a Bird of Prey and description stating that this is a "surprised falcon". The only problem is it's a common buzzard (a Buteo hawk) not a falcon. I seriously don't know how a company can confuse a buzzard with a falcon (they are not similar, seriously) in the age when everyone has this thing called Google. I understand that not everyone recognizes birds, but Google Image search is not that hard... That's so unprofessional of them. I'm seriously wondering if I should go their facebook page and tell them how stupid they are. I know it's kind of a ridiculous problem, but this "falcon-buzzard" mistake really bothers me a lot. xD

    I disagree. Not because I think WoK or WoR would be wonderful games, or something. I disagree, because I don't like the belief that game requires action to be enjoyable. Really, not all games are action games.

    Well. I'm Polish. I totally lack the ability to pronounce some of your vowels properly, memorise all you vowels in all your words. And I also totally can't understand why would anyone create a language where "oo" sometimes sounds completely different than the other "oo". English has so random pronunciation. So I'm just going to pronounce "oo" as Polish "u". Please forgive me.

    I went out of the house. Went to 5 different shops. Managed to buy a plunger. Had a conversation with random person. Went by home. Managed to unplug the sink. I'm so proud of myself today. Maybe it looks stupid simple, but I'm proud of myself.

    Oh, really? I must've completely forget that.

    That's not a pet peeve, that's a crime. xD In Poland it's totally illegal.

    By accident I washed my face with hair conditioner. I have to say that my skin feels pretty soft now. xD

    There are numerous occasions in which people first see my name in writing, before ever meeting me in person. You know, all sorts of apointments with all sort of people.

    The pipe under the sink inmy kitchen is blocked. The laundry machine is connected to it, so I can't make the laundry that I wanted.

    I refuse to write my name incorrectly for the sake of some people that have problem with remembering the simplest name ever. I have problems with remembering names, but I don't remember them at all. And they just don't remember the correct version. Nope.

    Oh. My emotions are so random right now. I now felt so sad for the mentioned T-rex that my eyes almost got teary. xD
  16. Pestis the Spider
    Completely right. They make it sound like I am a 5-year old Magda or something. You know - Madzia. xD

    After watching the newest episode, I have just one question: How did Curtis manage to make a front-flip across the computer station. Like c'mon. Random computer geek + sudden front-flips? xD

    @Delightful. No, spelling my surname doesn't help. I think it actually makes people more confused. And the non-English letter in my first name is "j". xD The thing is that in Poland we pronounce "j" the way you pronounce "y" in words like "yellow". I can understand that people make the mistake first time they see me. But when they make same mistake after me correcting them on 10 separate occasions, it starts to get annoying. xP

    My pet peeves regerding the use of my name: - People saying that I should change my surname, because it's to hard to pronounce. - People saying "Omg, I'm not even going to try to pronounce it". Yeah I get it. It's long and hard, but don't make such a big deal out of it. - People mispronouncing my first name, because one letter (out of four, omg) is not English. - Situations like this (happened today): Courier: I have a package. What's your name? Me: Pestis XX*crazy long*XX Courier: Smith? Me: [processing]Is he introducing himself? No. Did he mishear what I said? Probably not. Is he making fun of my crazy surname? Possibly...[/processing] Courier: *stares and waits* Me: No. Courier: *smiles* Sign here. That is so annoying sometimes. xD

    Well, I just applied for interruption of studies, because my hole is also too deep to get out of it. So I kinda understand you. Good luck!
  21. Pestis the Spider
    Why does it bother you so much?
  22. Pestis the Spider
    Oh no. A fictional character that I've never read about is ashamed of me? How cruel!
  23. Pestis the Spider
    I was seriously scared of the ending. Really. And I was really disappointed with the second book. So I'd rather spoil myself a bit of the ending, than rage quit in the middle of reading.
  24. Pestis the Spider
    I just read the last 10 pages of that book. The ending is not what I hoped it to be, but is much better than the ending I was afraid of. So I will read this book soon.
