Yeah, that should probably be shied away from. I'm not a prude, but I'd rather not see the hammer come down on this thread.

Came across this lately:

Yeah, nature made that. According to the story, this is the result of a lightning strike. God tattooed this guy.

[SirAaronIII]

That is so sweet. Looks like lightning, a vein/artery, and a tree branch.

[MaximumZero]

Maaan, electricity never did anything cool like that to me. So jealous.

[freeformschooler]

That's awesome. It's also kind of frightening that a lightning scar looks just like a plant.

Time to go find a metal rod and a lightning storm, be back later.

Time to go find a metal rod and a lightning storm, be back later.

A “lightning flower” is a Lichtenberg Figure — or electric discharge pattern — that occurs on the skin of lightning strike victims, most likely as a result of small capillaries bursting from the intensity of the bolt’s current.

So I just watched "Howl's Moving Castle". Gave me an awesome idea for a short story, but unfortunately I'm filled with a complete inability to write right now. Ugh.

These are reddish, fernlike patterns that may persist for hours or days

Awww... sounds like its not permanent.

[Valid_Dark]

where'd you hear that ?

[lemon10]

Wikipedia, it was linked in the article.

Oh damn KAG is awesome. Catapulted myself to the enemy base with a keg on my back, blew up their last defense UTTERLY, took their flag, got over their frontal defenses, helped kill the knight that took our flag, and pretty much just ended the match in a victory for our team.

Damn that was fun

[Darvi]

D: 'cause I never actually managed to play a game in that.

I watch a couple of guys. Mostly console guys, I guess? I'm not huge into PC gaming. Aside from DF. But... um... NintendoCapriSun, SplitableInfinitive (haven't watched much, she seems interesting),SuperJeenius (cool guy doesn't afraid of anything), JoshJepson, chuggaconroy. I don't watch a whole lot of those last two guys. But I've heard of raocow.

NCS is great right now, because he's doing Skyward Sword, which I won't be able to play in person for quite a while. So I have to watch him play. Or maybe I should wait, certify my Zelda cred? I don't know! Aurgh.

By the gods. I have $777.79 in my bank account. SO CLOSE. In related news, I might not actually finish the month with negative dollars, if you discount my crippling student loan debt and the personal loan I had to take in order to finance the move down here (which is where I'll be shuffling any remainder over $100 at the end). Unless my expenses skyrocket or I'm forgetting something important. Probably my apartment will burn down or something. Maybe I'll inherit some sort of hyper-cat from a long-lost uncle, which will not only shred everything in the apartment and demand thousands of calories of fresh meat each day, but also get me evicted because pets aren't allowed. At least I'll have something preposterously cuddly, though.

Oh, wait. Maybe I can get new shoes, thus ending the irritating ritual of coming home from work every day. Or at least the part of it where every step is agony. My current pair probably only has another couple of months before pieces start falling off, if previous experience is anything to go by.
