I want to play as a mushroom that can't jump desperately trying to outrun a crazy plumber. I think it is a great metaphor for life.

So apparently there's going to be an Ant Man movie before the next Avengers. Ant Man is a cool dude I think, also Guardians of the galaxy before that, and a new Thor movie which seems slightly confusing but awesome nonethelss. Also another Capitain America one which hopefully is more interesting than the first one.

Hot damn it's going to be an interesting two years in regards to comic book movies.

Installing a new OS. It's fucking scary.

I hope I backed up everything...

I stumbled across a rather good metaphor while free-associating over breakfast today.

Relationships are cake, and sex is frosting. Now, you can eat a spoonful of frosting and it will taste good, but no matter how good it tastes you'll end up in a bad place if you just keep shoveling it down. That's why people spread frosting on cakes. Of course, if you have a really delectable cake, maybe one with layers, you don't need much frosting. Even if the frosting tastes sort of nasty it's okay, as long as the cake is really superb. But it's even better if the cake and frosting are good, right? If you have a bad cake, though, a nasty one or a bland one, you usually cope by piling on the frosting and hoping that adds some flavor. What's really terrible, though, is if you're eating a cake and think it tastes really good, and then the person you're eating it with leans over to whisper in your ear, "Sorry, it's really just a mound of frosting. I didn't want to have any cake with you." At this point you start feeling dizzy and nauseous, mostly because you've just realized that you've eaten a pound of frosting.

As opposed to my relationships, where there's usually an unfrosted cake and then the person leans over and says the thing I've been eating never existed >_> <_<

I generally enjoy cake but detest frosting, so that explains the nature of my relationships.

[Descan]

And cake without frosting to most people is a little bland, but to a select number it's delicous!

Some people just don't like cake or frosting at all.

Some prefer pie, some with crust on top and others just on the bottom.

Some like to have frosting on all their deserts, or at least whip cream.

THIS IS A REALLY GOOD METAPHOR!

Hah. Remember my post about grabbing Ubuntu a few pages back? Turns out my laptop, in all of its wimpy processing power, has even less muscle through it than through Windows 7. I was hanging just trying to open the system properties tab. Oh well, back to Seven for me. Are you doing a full reformat, or a partition/dualboot?

Reformat, from a 5-yr old install of XP to 7, but most of my actual stuff is on a different disc than the OS ssd. It worked! Yay! Now reinstalling all of the usual crud...

[MaximumZero]

Uh, is it bad that I enjoy lots and lots of different flavors of frosting from a bunch of different cakes but never actually eat any cake? Because I was doing that for a long time. ;;>_______>

As for my latest cake, well..it's «☼CAKE☼» decorated with lots and lots of ‼«☼FROSTING☼»‼. It's burning with passion. *wink wink*

[Sirus]

What is this "cake" and "frosting" you all speak of?

This is fucking brilliant. o.o Dear god, this is a great metaphor for all my relationships.

First one? The cake was good at first, and the frosting was great, then the cake went bad and apparently I ate all the frosting at some point, then someone stole my cake.
Second one? All frosting... On a... Pie of friendship? It's confusing.
Third one? All frosting. Like, a pound of frosting, as in the final example. :x
Fourth one? A very confusing, rather revolting cake with a extremely thin sheen of bad frosting. :x

What about Vector's avatar? The frosting on that cake looks delicious.
