Finally joined the 21st century by getting a Netflix subscription last night. Streamed a movie to the Wii and started watching in like 15 seconds. 

WHY DID I NOT DO THIS BEFORE???


Incidentally, the "local favorites" section on their website is rather amusing. The first row was like 2 sci-fi flicks, a children's movie, an anime, and a comedy. The next 20 rows were all Bollywood. (We have a rather substantial Indian population here.)

6gb download that I full throttled non-stop for a couple days finally finished, and without ending up corrupt! Now just getting a 3.6GB patch downloaded which seems to have been compressed down to 1.5ishgigs.

Overall, good apocalypse.

Alone at home for most of the day, fuck yeah no nagging!

Fever broke.  Finally.

I think I have a reasonable hunch who Okami No Rei is...

Vec, does his playstyle match Dakarain's? His posting time does, and he's the only Mafia player that experienced that I know of that's MIA, besides Book.

My family came back home and everyone but the sister promptly fell asleep, yay!

There's a fuckton of wind outside. That's (literally) cool.

This is only moderately amusing as far as items on The Oatmeal go. But I nearly had a choking conniption fit at the last line of the first panel.

Omnomnomming some apple pie. I'd have preferred raspberries, but the bakeries are closed and it's better than the abomination in my profile.

Happy 21st Darvi.

Accidentally sprayed my hand black while spraypainting some Warhammer models yesterday (Guard, for those interested.). First thought upon noticing it was "Heh, Reverse Michael Jackson.". First action was showing my mum, along with voicing my thought from earlier.

Also, completely avoided crying from onion chopping. Turns out it only gets me when I'm a nitwit and lean right over it to see where I'm cutting. Sure, pieces were irregular, but they weren't flavoured with tears, which I believe to be a plus.

But tears are delicious, Pies :<

Some more interesting info about the eruption going on: It's been about a century since Grímsvötn last had an eruption this powerful; it's ten times as big as the one from Eyjafjallajökull last year. However, it probably won't cause any problems outside of Icelandic airspace, since even though there's a lot more ash it isn't being blown towards Europe.

Nope, not at all.  Dakarian was much more excitable, less arrogant, sounded older, and couldn't spell (the usual example of this was "I SWARE I'll hang you!").

I suspect that ONR may be one of Book's friends, though.  Who knows...

 Mother surprised us by really wanting to see the next Pirates movie, brought us along.

 Wasn't bad, there were no glaring bits of stupidity and the romantic subplot was restrained to some minor characters we don't care about and their lines were in hushed whispers so I don't really care how good or bad they may have had. Questionable motivations of one of them near the end. Overall not bad but nothing magical. It made me smile and not rage at anything in particular, so yeah, good.

 I called every single twist that came and I'm not terribly movie savvy, so don't expect above and beyond the call of duty. It just didn't fuck up, and the fuckups that were there were weak, so whatever.

I think some of his posts are LONGER than dakarian's though.  It's quite an achievement.
