i decided to buy a more expensive laptop with a num pad
i use shift to make the arrow keys go faster
i believe everyone's abilities are based on they're skill level in that required skill
i've started "leveling up" my "skills", which is actually helping me in rl  :D

When I heard about the oil leak in the gulf, my first thought was to pour magma above the leak and let the resulting obsidian cave-in onto the leak.
When jokingly asked about my plan for the zombie apocalypse (every good geek has one), I proposed cleansing the lot of them with magma.

I was watching Dr. Who just now. When it was time for the bad guy to show himself (or herself, as the case may be) my first thought was 'Reptilemen!' This thought was acknowledged even further when the Doctor stated the name of the creature: homo reptilia.

The recent episode is really Dwarfy; digging "too deep", sinkholes, reptilemen and an underground civilsation... and Science! of the medical kind.

I'm guessing "Cold Blood".

The return of the Weeping Angels was, too...

Vast underground cemetary (consisting of literally hundreds of statues, built into a more or less natural cavern), with the Angels themselves doubling for HFS, in a truly twisted, nightmarish fashion.

Just plays so well into my theory that angels are naturally scarier than demons.

Ofcourse, the Angels then meet something a thousand times worse than they are.

Actually The Hungry Earth. Cold Blood doesn't air until this Saturday. I'm wondering when the Daleks will return. Or the Cybermen. I mean, after the rerereturn, or how many re's you would need, of the Daleks I highly suspect them to come back too. And according wikipedia, I'm right: They will appear in an unnamed episode of Series 5. Also, if in some way you've already seen them or know the plot, please don't tell.

Warning: Will take a noticeable bit longer to save when run on a flash drive. try to stop a bit ahead of time to make sure it finishes before you've gotta go. (also, it will most likely not look like a game to the majority of people if you play in ASCII mode.)

Now, on my usual walks around the neighborhood, I constantly ponder striking into the earth and fending off the rest of the world in my own society.

Coincidentally, the police follow me much more often

I want your teachers. Mine would freak out if they saw me toying around on one of the school laptops.
