SFX 87: Emmy's blogs are profound
SFX 87: s'not fair
SFX 87: i wanna be profound
IHateIB: Once in a while they are
SFX 87: but no one comments on them, so they must not be.
IHateIB: Right; she must have no friends.
SFX 87: some properties are inherent in objects- like, the apple is red, it's round. Some are objective, like.. if people perceive something to be profound, it is, if people perceive it to be inane, it is.
SFX 87: if no one perceives anything, my blog must not exist.
SFX 87: well, in terms of depth
SFX 87: the words are there.
IHateIB: You mean, subjective?
SFX 87: hushyourface.
SFX 87: The English language is my beeyatch
SFX 87: I've had too much SAT prep for people to be telling me what the English language is and isn't.
IHateIB: I think that profundity is fairly objective
SFX 87: "Ameliorate" my arse.
SFX 87: how?
IHateIB: It's derived from the human experience
SFX 87: ass
SFX 87: dammit
SFX 87: um...
SFX 87: okay
IHateIB: Or something like that that sounds less English classy
SFX 87: but what if I experience a styrofoam tray?
IHateIB: Well, that's unimportant.
IHateIB: OK, I see your argument.
IHateIB: Yeah, I don't really know why we see some things as profound and others not.
IHateIB: Maybe 'cause Emi relates little events to big statements in a way that doesn't seem corny and silly, she's profound.
SFX 87: well my argument is that something can't be profound if no one sees it as profound.. I guess an apple can still be red if everyone's blind, but it can't be tasty if no one has.. um.. taste buds.
SFX 87: right
IHateIB: Well, it's past 10:50
IHateIB: I'm really going to bed
SFX 87: nighty
SFX 87: FREAK
IHateIB: nightitynights
IHateIB signed off at 11:04:57 PM.
SFX 87: hmm. Just noticed. I'm commenting on your comment on Nick B's blog. One would think it'd be easier to just say it.
IHateIB: Just say that he's effeminate?
IHateIB: But it's not true.,
IHateIB: He's like afeminate and amasculine
IHateIB: He's like a sexless robot.
SFX 87: he's a monk, but not really
IHateIB: A truly sexless robot, not the ones that are masculine by defaul
IHateIB: t
SFX 87: he's like... a teddy bear
SFX 87: who are we talking about?
IHateIB: Shema
SFX 87: what?
SFX 87: I was talking about nkc
SFX 87: nkb
IHateIB: ok
IHateIB: I was discussing ss
IHateIB: heh
SFX 87: You could describe nkb as a sexless robot too
SFX 87: it's a bit worrying. He doesn't get this whole.. sex thing..
IHateIB: yeah, an affection robot
SFX 87: He's like the most asexual guy I know who talks about sex.
SFX 87: yeah
SFX 87: I mean, I don't know if Andrew and David and Rob are asexual, but they don't talk about being asexual as much, knowwhatimean?
SFX 87: change "as much" to "ever"
IHateIB: zah
SFX 87: is that a yes or a no?
IHateIB: You sort of ignore it until you think about it
SFX 87: Rob at least has been making really bad dirty jokes lately
IHateIB: a yes
SFX 87: mnkay
IHateIB: awww! That's adorable!
SFX 87: it'is creepy!
IHateIB: He's like finally getting to the social level of 3rd grade!
IHateIB: He's a big boy now!
IHateIB: (I'm really not this condescending)
You know what, it's not that the shorter my posts are the more comments I get, it's that there are more little tags at the end that say "Comment." So it's not that my blogs are shorter, it's just that it's like there are more of them to comment on.
So they're selling Jenna Jameson action figures now, eh?
"Soul Music" is really good. It makes me wanna Get Up And Dance, as the song goes. WHAUM WHAUM WHAUM!!!!!! Boom-bambam-boom BOOM! Music with rocks in it! Just to prove Malex wrong, if you want to look for a book that can express the emotion of music in text form, there we go. HELLOOOOO, ANKH-MORPORK!!!!! TERRY PRATCHETT, SIGN MY BOOOOBSSS!!!! hmm. I don't think he'd appreciate that. Could I get people to pay me to not ask them to sign my boobs? Sort of like how Ranwa has a shirt that says "give me a dollar and I'll go away"? Maybe I could send PTerry and photo of, say, Jenna Jameson's boobage and have him sign that.

Susan's a better character now. I was sorta scared she'd be like.. a teenage Dagny Taggart. Characters are sorta weak.. , no, not really, I just don't like them as much as the Watch. damn good music though. Expecting my Vetinari-poo to be thrown in mosh pit anytime now. Know it won't happen, because he's The Patrician. But I so want to see him with his hair down. Pratchett makes a Far Side reference. I'm happy.

Do You Like Muffins??
Andrew has been counting the number of times I use the word like in an unwarranted fashion in TOK. He's counted 15. I didn't stop to ask whether it was 15 in one rant or 15 during the whole class period. I didn't know it was physically possible to misuse like 15 times in the space of time it takes to spew a paragraph of stuff. Well, orally. If you grabbed the word bubble of my rant out of the air and pasted it onto a piece of paper, it'd be a paragraph, damn you. A really long paragraph.
In accord with Alex's instructions, my blog entries are shorter and more user-friendly. Unlike his last few.
I would just like to make a little note that if Kristin T is better than me playing Medea, I'll have to send her a flaming golden robe.

Vortex asks a good question.

VortexMR: i wounder when it was that spelling became an exstreamly well accepted form of quick mental assasment
Alex has been being too damn smart lately. Just read his blog. You couldn't understand it without several decades of schooling. God knows I don't understand it. Well, I understand all the little words individually, but I just don't understand why anyone would care to put them all together. Personally, I think he's doing it for Lesley. It's like, where normal people flirt, they philosophize. ICKYPOO! But it's better than Nick B... better than his Allieshrine. But for entertainment value, I'd take Nick's Angst over Alex's Mind any day.

Which lead me to the quote of the day (I can have more than one, damn you)
VortexMR: well anyone who says antithesis when trying to sound smart should be shot
Potato on a string! "The Truth" is a good book. Sam Vimes should meet up with Han Solo. I want to see them in a Bastarding Contest. Not.. um.. creating bastards.. but seeing who's the greater bastard. I suspect it's Vimes.. he's a drunkard *and* a "bad cop". That should count for something. Besides, Solo married a princess (if you're into the cheap Star Wars paperbacks anyways), and Vimes only gets a Wagnerian duchess.

"Millenium hand and shrimp! Bugrit!"
Sam Vimes isn't that good in "The Truth." It's because William is outbastarding him.

Quote of the Day: "ELVES STOLE MY HUSBAND!!!"

Also, despite what Andrew says, I seriously doubt ANYONE, Discworld or not, would be stupid enough to saddle 600 pounds of coinage to a horse. ("It's only 600 or so pounds," says Andrew). It's all right for story purposes, but practically, if you were going to frame someone for a crime, and the perpetrator were supposedly an old rich lame man (Aw, my po' Vetinari-poo!!!), you don't put 600 pounds of coinage on a getaway-horse. I mean, there are probably larger coin denominations in Ankh-Morpork than the 1 dollar coin, so that 700 thousand dollars doesn't weigh a third of a ton.

I'm a Wind Spirit


Whatever. I like windy days a lot though. I generally don't like all this Celtic fae fantasy crud... but Jen has a spirit, so I have to have a spirit too. Nick had quite a spirit in Greece. HOO-ah!

What the Hell??? Oh. Turn your speakers up.
Go fry an egg. MATE! heh. Silly Brits. You know what is an utterly lame word? "Lifemate." In fantasy/sci-fi. For God's sake, if it's your husband or your wife, SAY so! If you're not married, it's boyfriend/girlfriend/partner/lover/mistress/paramour/concubine/fiance/significant other/"my gal"... LIFEMATE??? unless you're some sort of monkey, that term is such a piece of turd.
Have you noticed? The shorter my blogs, the more comments I get.
Pigeon-guided missles!!!!
Madam Johnson makes an effort to enunciate everything. Which gets annoying after a while. Andrew, at least, doesn't appear to make an effort- he just enunciates naturally.

Read Maskerade, another Discworld book. It makes me have silly dreams of opera and theater. Playing Medea is fun, because she's homicidal. I'm proud of myself, for my acting, anyways, because that's about as good as I get. Haha. Shutup. DEATH!
Rob's house was cool. Sort of nostalgic thinking about our shitty science project. Oh, Nick, I still have my chem poem, apparently. Rob's cats are cool, which is strange because I thought I didn't like cats, but still felt strangely compelled to coo at them.
The Onion's Aquarius Horoscope.
Gustav Holst will appear to you in a dream and refuse to leave until you agree that John Williams has been ripping him off for years.
Reminds me of Nick's Blog.
