    Thanks!

    In the (paraphrased) words of Steven Sharp Nelson, "Guitar, drums, and cello all at once weren't working, so I combined them all."
  3. Slowswift
    Uh. Okay then. Wow. Where'd you recommend getting those, or the best ones? EDIT: Silverblade, you spelled "cello" wrong.
  4. Slowswift
    *sighs* Yeah. I guess. Better get cracking on the piano then. Maybe we'll finally get around to finding some lessons.

    Wanting so bad to pick up a hobby but having no skills for it whatsoever.

    Never been in a relationship. Like ever. And my crush is in college. Oops. Well, at least there are some cute girls in my classes.
  7. Slowswift
    Understandable.
  8. Slowswift
    Well, I suppose that's better than hating Baymax or something.
  9. Slowswift
    Elendite?

    I'm sorry. Why is it Jolly Ranchers, anyways? Why not little chocolates or something?
  11. Slowswift
    *gasp*

    Unless we're robbed, I should be able to bring it tomorrow! Finally. ETA: Who's coming, anyways?

    ...which would bring us back to Hoid. I'd love to see some tidbit in the books where it's mentioned that the editors have never seen Jak or anyone affiliated with him, but a mysterious man matching Hoid's description drops off manuscripts weekly or something.

    I don't know if there's an exact word to describe it. Wonder, maybe? Wanderlust? I don't know if I want to use "escapism", though upon further reflection that may be part of it. I read because of the world that the author built. All of it, really; the magic and the setting especially. It's why I liked Eragon: the story wasn't original and his prose was far from the best, but I enjoyed the setting and the magic (and dragons!), and so I enjoyed the series. It's why I like the Star Wars prequel trilogy: all sorts of planets and the Force and lightsabers and spaceships. That sort of thing just excites me. Sure, Jar Jar is annoying (among other things), but for me, all the cool technology overrides that.

    I believe it's actually Jak's Terrisman who transcribes them.
  16. Slowswift
    Such as this one?

    I agree almost 100%, except the bit about downvoting out of spite. It just doesn't feel like that strong of an emotion to me. (I could go on about Freudian slips and unconscious jealousy even if they aren't consciously against it, but I won't, because I don't actually know a whole lot about that yet. )

    You should never have to apologize about talking to willing, sympathetic people about your feelings. We're here for you.

    If a dorky, unsocial nerd were to hypothetically want to try one to pass the time, which should he do?

    That little "moderator" tag seems oddly fitting, nestled between his icon and post count like that.
  21. Slowswift
    How did you do that, anyways?
  22. Slowswift
    Yes. Yes he did. Tell us your secrets, O Voidus!

    Eh, I talk to some friends at school. I'm an introvert so it doesn't bother me much. I actually can't wait for college.
  25. Slowswift
    It's mostly my social life, and I mostly go to parties for the music anyways. But thank you!
