I am ever so smug and happy with my Gent.
I am still open to other creatures of interest should they approach, and enjoy my lady's company when she's available, but I really am rather enjoying the Gent. It's nice, he's sweet. A warm, comfortable sort of thing, complete with horribly cute in-jokes. He gave me one of his lovely replica guns, it's ever so pretty, and we're hopefully off to Thorpe Park for rollercoasters some weekend soon.

Unrelated to this, I seem to have contracted some nasty cold or other because of foolishly ignoring common sense and accepting the invitation to bite the highly attractive and submissive young lady who warned me she'd recently had the flu. My immune system is wonderful, so I'm not totally floored with flu, but the remaining struggling dregs of the virus are unpleasant.

It annoys me when I type in a web address and somehow it searches for google images. Starting to get pissed off. Also someone is sending me spam with my own e-mail address. I sent a "remove from list" request. It showed up in my inbox.

Delkaetre, have your posts always sounded like dialogue cut from Sense and Sensibility, or is this a new thing? I've never noticed before.

If you have Firefox go to Tools->Add ons and look for a search tool bar that added itself, and remove it. If you have IE go to Tools->Manage Add ons and remove them there too.

It happens sometimes. I tend to fall into slightly more uselessly elaborate patterns of speech when bored, ill, or reading 18-19th century fiction. At the time of posting I was all of the above.

And I'm fairly sure that "Sense and Sensibility" didn't involve any of characters biting pretty, kinky girls. That's a bit more "120 Days", really.

Thank you but I use Explorer. Uploaded something and it's gone now... for awhile anyway.

The thing where someone is using my e-mail to send spam is difficult to fix. Apparently spammers use someone's own e-mail address to bypass the filters. I only hope they aren't using it to frame me for spam.

They've become quiet because of a lack of topics to contribute to.

Either that or the lack of tension / petty squabbling has forced everyone into lurk mode.

In the news today: I go the interwebs at home. Atlast I'm freed from the damnable constraints of VicUniWeb.

That and I'm fairly certain I saw someone resembling what I'd guess Wednesday Friday Addams would look like, but thought against approaching.

I was rewatching the Gnet power meeting vids and I was greatly amused.

Also, are there GM pin-ups available for purchase?

Ironic you mention that SCC, I watched them just yesterday. For some reason I feel that Uncle Smoov would be the sort of person I would get along with.

And I also only really like vinegared Sushi too.

I suck with chopsticks so much that in the end I give up use a fork to wolf down the other half of the meal because everyone else is waiting.

hahahahaha Ratshit, Sir Canvas Corpsey.

I'm one of those tossers whose been taught how to do it since I was a child. I remember I recently had a Bento with my mother and she was ashamed when I was able to eat rice better than her with Chopsticks, seeing as she had to live off rice for several months in her younger years.

I don't eat enough stuff with chopsticks often enough anyway, usually 6 months to a year between use so it all makes sense.

I wish there was something to do, other than playing Star Ocean 4... I mean I got it on Friday and I've racked up 58 hours or something on it...

I suppose studying for my exam might be a good idea, it's on Monday... fiddlesticks D:

The plot is meh, the script is terrible beyond belief, I wanted to punch kittens through some of the dialogue, it suffers from 'power of friendship' scenes and badly done emotional breakdowns, the average voice acting doesn't help.

Looks damn good though, battles are fun and characters manage to keep your attention anyway.

Its' cons outweigh its' pros BUT you want to keep playing anyway.

Meracle, Myuria and Arumat basically made this game great for me, each for different reasons. I'd probably recommend Tales of Vesperia over this, though it's coming out on the 26th I think...

Both are fun though.
