  • Blah, some old guy who was a volunteer got on my case for no real reason. I must just be one of those people who was predestined to have stupid social crap occur.

  • This will probably be my only chance to post today, so here goes:

    I hate acid reflux.

    That's it.

  • Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Sorry to hear that, JZ. I hope your day gets better.

    So far I have Windows95(usb), Win98SE, WinMe, and WinXP64 burned to disc with nice labels and inside DVD cases which are nicely labeled too

    I may never need for these old OSes ever again but I'll never want for them, either

    I kinda feel like using Twitter more often. A lot of times I have little individual thoughts I want to share and it seems like a good place to put them.

    On the other hand, it kinda feels like a waste since I know nobody will read or reply to them.

    XP64 only goes up to SP2 which causes some softwares to complain and not work, like Painter 12. I think maybe there's a way to hack in SP3 but I don't really remember

    I'm playing Angry Birds now, for some reason.

    I never really did see the appeal of this game, but at the same time I can kinda see how people play it as much as they do. It's the kind of thing that's very easy to just say "one more level!" over and over to.

    It's really not that great, honestly.

    I was always perplexed by how much fucking merchandise of it there is, though.

    Because its main audience and target demographic are 35-50 year olds at work with nothing better to do

    The game's simple physics--i.e., everything seems to literally exist in a 2-dimensional space and everything falls down no matter what--remind me of Scribblenauts.

    Which, I mean...yeah, all this does is remind me that I could be playing a better game.

    (Scribblenauts isn't an exceptionally great game, but the creative "anything you can think of" aspect certainly makes it more fun than just moving your finger about on a touch screen.)
  • World of Goo was a great game.

    for dinner I took some spiraled ham that I had in the fridge and put it in a saucepan with like 2tbsp of maple syrup and a can of unsweetened pears with a dash of ground cloves and let it simmer for about 20 minutes

    and holy shit did that taste good

    Hmm, ARM says more than 20 billion ARM cores have shipped since they started selling them in 1986. I wonder how many 8086 derivatives have sold since 1978...

  • So, now that I've written out and typed up another update, the one I had written suddenly reappeared in the posting box. Here it is, because no one is going to believe me.


    Alright so today I'm hoping we can get through the first battle, on to the next town and maybe catch some Tohoes.

    Now as for why we're going on to the next town well uh

    [image]

    I guess we just are. Perhaps Mom kicked us out. Who knows.

    also

    [image]

    fuck you, Gary.

    [image]

    FUCK YOU, GARY

    [image]

    Well I guess this is like our first Touhou battle. How exciting.

    of course the Tohomon Prof. opts to lecture us before we can do anything cool.

    [image]

    well actually, Professor, I've played this game several times and WHY CAN'T I SKIP THIS SHIT, SERIOUSLY.

    [image]

    THEN WHY ARE YOU TALKING

    anyway, a few turns into the actual battle, it looks like we're about to lose, but luckily we score a critical hit in the nick of time

    [image]

    and then we lose anyway but FUCK YOU GARY BECAUSE I HAVE SAVE STATES SO I CAN CHEAT, NYEH

    This is probably gonna actually take quite awhile. I don't usually insist on winning battles, but I generally like to win my first if nothing else. Problem is that Reimu's stats are such that her Pound attack just objectively does twice as much damage as Zesty's scratch, and lowering Reimu's defense with Leer doesn't always work either because Reimu also knows Growl.

    So it's pretty tough as far as first fights go.

    [image]

    You have no idea how many times I saw this screen. At least ten, after that I stopped counting.

    FUCK YOU, GARY

    [image]

    FUCKING FINALLY

    FUCK YOU, GARY

    AND SUCK IT.

    SUCK

    IT.

    Goddamn that took way, way longer than it should've.

    So Zesty gained a level and a half (yay! :D) and we've finally defeated Gary leDouchebag,

    [image]

    FUCK YOU GARY

    Gary promptly leaves, telling us he will "smell us later"

    really sir, "smell you later"? Has anyone ever actually said this? I don't think it was a common saying in the 90s when the original Red & Blue came out, and I don't think it's ever been a common saying. I think Gary might just be a douchebag. That's right, a total douchebag. (fuck you, Gary)

    OK! Time to actually play the game now. Gonna split that off into another installment though, which will come later tonight most likely.

    Because we may actually get to it today, let me explain how catching's gonna work. What I'm going to do is endeavor to catch every wild Touhou I come across in a given installment, and after the installment is posted, votes will be made on which of these Touhou if any I should keep and train. If we get more than six at any point (probable), we will vote similarly on what Touhou to kick out of the active lineup. Right now I'm thinking that any Touhou with three votes is an automatic in. May change it later, though.
    what the hell, seriously
  • This beat that the devil today
    Has nurtured and fostered
    Is inspired by the powers of hell
    And there are young people that are in these rock groups that are
    Pulling off their clothes in full view of thousands of young people
    There asks the question when police dare not step in with the air thick
    With marijuana smoke, a hundred thousand kids! The huge speakers that
    Beat off the music as dope-filled entertainers and performers beat upon
    The guitars and drums and the strings. Those young people that ripped
    Off their clothes and acted like animals

    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music

    And I really didn't know what I was doing, they said
    I just pulled off my clothes and I had to do it

    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music
    They said it's the music
    It's the music

  • My dreams exceed my real life
    I was angry with my friend;
    I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
    I was angry with my foe:
    I told it not, my wrath did grow.

    And I watered it in fears,
    Night and morning with my tears:
    And I sunned it with smiles,
    And with soft deceitful wiles.

    And it grew both day and night.
    Till it bore an apple bright.
    And my foe beheld it shine,
    And he knew that it was mine.

    And into my garden stole,
    When the night had veiled the pole;
    In the morning glad I see;
    My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

    Someone sincere in his beliefs doesn't seek external approval of them--because the defining characteristic of sincere belief is that it comes from the heart. Insincere belief, on the other hand, comes from the head, whose main occupation is not determining what's true, as with the heart, but what will further one's status among men. Like many others, this impressionable fellow, having spent too much time pondering his own reflection filtered through echo chambers, comes to the conclusion--quite logically, you must admit--that the way out of obscurity in our society is identification with any number of rebellious causes (which, curiously enough, never seem to be opposed by anyone in power, who are themselves self-identified rebels as well), and that it is not the causes themselves that are important, but how effectively one employs them in advancing one's social status.

    Read in amazement as the PC Mag of 1994 tries to wrap its head around the Internet!

    lol internet. It's gone from "that weird thing the DoD paid for" to "that weird thing everyone won't shut up about" between about 1990 and 1994.

    or not, whatevs.

    Social status is weird.

    The other day I managed to type an ß on my tablet entirely by accident.

    I have the thing set to an American English keyboard.

    Now I can't figure out how to do it again.

  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    To me, the concept of social status just seems kind of weird and pointless. Aren't there more interesting things we could be concentrating on?

    Ah. Apparently ß is done by tapping s and swiping upwards, as are other foreign or accented characters. Neat!
