  • At this rate, Ica is probably going to get much further than me (me of the refusing to download things illegally persuasion) in Walking Dead. I enjoyed the first season, but mainly because I tend to use the MST3K mantra on basically anything by def…
  • This is who be blockin' my tumblr access. Or at least, who made the software that's doing it.  I don't get it. Sometime between last Wednesday and today, someone decided to put up a filtering software and set it to block tumblr? Why would they sudd…
  • Godfrickingdamnit I had a post in the works but I lost it because I was stupid. So I try again. I go to work like usual. Can goof off on internet like usual. Except all of tumblr is blocked by a firewall/filter/whatever that wasn't there last week.…
  • Er, I suppose I should add the disclaimer that my views apply most directly to Americans.  I also don't believe that Americans who really want to claim to understand the world are exempt from having reasonable knowledge of important figures from ot…
  • Stuff like this is precisely why I'm a history major. For everyone who sees this, shakes their head, says they don't want to live on this planet anymore...I just nod and think "This is why history matters."  Learn as much as you can, start early...…
  • Oh hey! Welcome! You'll like it here. Also, I sent you a note on dA in case you didn't notice...
  • Leaving for Nantucket tomorrow. Will only be around sporadically until Friday. Also posting this in the "activity" place.
  • Kind of random, but could someone Wikipedia-competent please fix the vandalism to this article. (That sentence was supposed to end with a question mark but it's too late to fix it now.)
  • Now in Connecticut: Fairly severe thunderstorms.
  • That awkward moment when you check out a listing for a huge beautiful 2006 house in Avon and realize you were in it before. In 2006. When it was open while still under construction. And that you took funny pictures on your then new-ish cell phone of…
  • This thread. This derail. Amazing, what happens here. Well, anyway, obviously this PM isn't the one I'm already in from earlier, so add me please.
  • On another another note...heat wave across most of the U.S. How's everyone (American) holding up? I'm fine here with my A/C.
  • ^^^But hey, you're working at the Goodspeed, so that's something! ...wait a minute, my grandmother and her friend Bob go there sometimes.  Grandma and Bob aren't the "mess with young'uns' heads" sort of old people, though. She can just be a bit ob…
  • Well that was interesting. Yeah, Martello does baffle me a bit. I respect him to a point for having made it that far in the army, but sometimes the way he acts seems awfully at odds with what I'd expect from his station. I get this feeling that to …
  • Alex, where did you post this thing?
  • Just as well I didn't go back in there then.  Was it right of me to deal with the shit that was stirred up last night by stepping away, even though I initially made it seem like I was willing to argue with Martello? That was impulsive of me, and I'…
  • Frankly I don't even want to... Wait, yes I do. Since I put him on ignore I'm kind of curious about what finally got you to ban him.
  • ^Er, what? I haven't followed Homestuck in a while, but I did hear he's been reading it...and this sounds intriguing. Anyway, my thoughts on Iroh basically ran to "Well, people sometimes say I sound a lot like my father. So it happens." After seein…
  • The old Polycom logo strikes me as being a more complex version of the logo of paper products company SCA.  Evergreen and SCA fact: When I was in middle school or so, I would see an SCA paper towel dispenser in a certain bathroom at a college-campu…
  • Agreed all around. Martello was actually the source of my drama. Which, by the way, I have simply dealt with by stepping away from. Big thanks to Werewolf for listening to me via PMs and helping me to cool down. I'm not going to even post on the cu…
  • Putting a guy who's devolved into complete shitposting and was basically a total troll before that on my ignore list certainly helped. A bit of a blunt solution, but it helped.
  • I believe I've just gotten embroiled in my first BTL drama ever, over something really stupid.  I certainly do prefer this place sometimes.
  • INUH, this is bizarre. I just watched The Grey last night too! It was good. Solid all around. My dad and I kind of had a running commentary going but we do that a lot. We didn't mind the ending, but my mom did when she asked us how it ended. She r…
  • Yeah, this always did bug me, especially what you say in your third paragraph. But hey, at least it gives everything a nice distinct atmosphere compared to CT. For what that's worth.
  • Glenn: What you saw, which I've almost certainly seen too at some point, was probably wild grape. It's everywhere in the northeast and kind of almost resembles kudzu. I think this is what I'm thinking of. Even if the picture isn't a good example, re…
  • Er...I knew that. I'm surprised you didn't know. But that's fine, and now you do know, and I'll give you my mom's pretty savvy opinion, formed over many years in NYC: Parquet flooring is generally a pretty good and nice thing. It's never really date…
  • Oh yeah, Marble Hornets is a thing that exists. Haven't watched that in months. I almost lost track of it as I drifted away from TVT over the course of this year so far, but I can't resist. I want to see how it all ends, at the very least. Ok…
  • One of the greatest (and by that I mean terrible) comments I've ever seen on Marble Hornets was on the TVT thread on it in New Media, where someone who clearly knew nothing about the south mistook kudzu covering the edge of a forest (which the prota…
  • Having just gotten caught up, I was just thinking about this. The mystery of Lin's father seems to be one of the big backstory gaps right now. It's not necessarily hugely important but it is perplexing.
  • Also, he co-writes a lot. Er, yeah, that's the thing. He isn't really writing anymore. If he really enjoyed it, I feel like he'd focus less on being a book factory and more on actually writing. Here's the key, I read this in an excellent New Yo…
