Just watched Brazil.

Why would anyone do this?  Holy crap that's an awful movie.

I wouldn't call it awful, but it did nothing for me.  Just like Twelve Monkeys and Fear and Loathing.  I don't get the hype about Gilliam.

Woo, people talking about their sleep habits make me feel stable and healthy.

Given that's about how I feel all the time, it's not so odd.

Oh well. Perpetual happiness realtive to most people I know!

I rarely sleep,

I rarely spend more than six hours in bed except for weekends.

We should start the insomnia club.

Yeah! We can stay up all night and quote Fight Club!

I find his creativity pretty incredible. That said, there's not much else I like about him. Case in point: The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Plot was half-dumb-half-senseless, and though the filming technique was fine, it was really just "A bunch of stuff Terry Gilliam thinks is cool" wrapped in a very thin layer of excuse plot. That said, some of the most impressive visuals I've seen in quite a while.

A friend of mine went to an advance screening of that, actually, and met Gilliam. Apparently he is "batshit insane," end quote.

Monty Python.

Terry Gilliams alone does not a flying circus make.

And... stay up all night! And... discover new irrelevant trivia on Wikipedia?

We could also stay up all night!

Just putting this out there, I did not like his art style. Or, Time Bandits. I did, however, like Fear and Loathing, mostly because I left feeling like I'd gotten a glimpse into an entire world that exists in my peripheral vision.

Fear and Loathing wasn't an amazingly good movie, though I quite liked it. It was a superbly disturbing experience. Wooo drugs.

The way that Deathworks types - Bolding names, or places or things of interest. Makes me feel like I'm in a zelda game.

Hello, Tack. Have you taken the ocarina to Hyrule?

What is Deathworks?!

Hi!

First of all, following my tradition: Happy birthday, Armok. I hope your new keyboard gives you a lot of joy (sorry, I hate web cams, so no word about that).

Secondly, while there is still a tiny feeling of ambivalence remaining, I am really happy that the 0.94 version お宝ありマス!FE ～ダンジョンはじめました～ is running fine on my desktop (after frustrating me on my laptop ~ I really wish I knew why they differ in that way as far as Japanese compatibility is concerned). And as I hoped, the update from 0.93 has added a few nice little features (like a comment on what kind of dungeon you have each week and also challenges (or rather bets) for extra goals (like "Fell 6 maids within the next 3 weeks" or "Collect 1 lock pick within the next 2 weeks"). I really recommend this game to people who like the dungeon designing business - it is somewhat simple but has a lot of nice options to explore. Ah, knowing Japanese might help to get the most out of it.

Third, a minor joy earlier this week was to see that the Absolute Power expansion pack came with a printed manual. Hooray! Because I really hate the companies who expect you to print the PDF manual when you buy a physical copy of the game (I mean, with download shops, there is no other way, but with packages).

Oh, I thought it was a game or something, it seems I haven't been paying attention.
