Today I learned why Spiderbro wasn't in the medicine closet where he usually is; My mom killed Spiderbro. ;~;

[Darvi]

I have no idea who spiderbro is, but he sounds like a cool dude and she should feel terrible for him.

I feel stressed today. I dunno what for. I just feel like there's a random weight on my shoulders and it's making me procrastinate everything.

Meh. I'm off to take a midday nap. Maybe I'll feel better after.

I had a scary dream last night where I was caught in a running of the bulls-type event, and I was in serious danger of getting gored to death. I was hiding in a barn type building with all these other people, and there were these type of wooden trellis doors lined up on one side that the bulls were smashing through. Me and everyone else were bunched up in one corner, and we needed to spread out or the bulls would get us all. We quickly deduce that there's safe spots inbetween the trellis doors cause the bulls would be rushing in too fast to notice us and they can't turn fast enough to gore us if the other bulls are pushing them from behind.

So one guy goes for it and a bull smashes through one of the doors and instantly gores him to death, I go for it after taking an extra second to make sure I wouldn't get insta-gored, and I make it from safe spot to safe spot until I'm in the opposite corner, the absolute safest spot since I won't need to worry about bulls goring me or the people behind me pushing me for the safe spot. So I tuck myself right in there and just watch the bulls go by, and after a few seconds my adrenaline high wears off and I start to notice my surroundings better. I notice that the corner I'm tucked into is filthy and filled with all kinds of spider webs. "Oh, little spiders aren't that bad. You know, compared to angry bulls." I think to myself, but they're everywhere, and I can't see them all, and I'm starting to feel them get under my clothes. Then I focus my eyes on one spider web at my feet, cause in that web is a fracking whole rat that's already been preyed on, and I realize that there's a huge giant spider somewhere around me, and I don't know where it is. I'm just going OHSHIT over and over to myself trying to spot the giant spider's hiding place, and then I wake up.

I'm not even that scared of spiders anymore, but I still have spider nightmares. Oh well, that dream wasn't as bad as the one where I was traversing an old mansion, only to realize that literally everything is made of living spiders, and I was in some kind of horrible spider dimension.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Well.

Don't think I'll be sleeping tonight. Or possibly ever.

A celebrated Texas icon succumbed to fire this past Friday. Sadly, emergency crews did not arrive quickly enough to save him from the inferno.

"There's obviously some electronics inside of Big Tex that leads to the ability for his mouth to move when he speaks," Glieber said. "I believe there was an electrical short, but that hasn't been confirmed or investigated."

Double passive verb in the same sentence... I think part of my soul just died o_o

Nah, that's just you subconsciously noticing that you've crossed state lines into Texas.

when I read stuff like this, I can feel my brain cells dying one by one.

There are faster ways to lose brain cells, so that isn't terrible.

If you guys are so offended by his english, perhaps you are in favor of compulsory Latin? I can personally guarentee that it is helpful with respect to engish tenses.

[Darvi]

I took Latin because I hoped it would help with my French.


Needless to say, it was an overwhelming failure.

[Loud Whispers]

Quite. But you do find yourself saying sentences in English like; SO GREAT was his walking, that all the girls wept.

[Darvi]

No. I wouldn't know how to quantify walking greatness.

I think Latin is too outdated to be of much help with modern Romance languages, let alone Germanic ones.

I think Latin is too outdated to be of much help with modern Romance languages, let alone Germanic ones.

I was refering to the fact that latin verbs require a strong knowledge of english tenses, if you are to translate them with any accuracy.
