What's funny is if you actually were to use seven proxies at once, it would take 5 minutes to load a text page.

Depending on the proxies I doubt it'd be more than a few seconds. A noticeable delay of course, but it's not like trying to access the internet from Mars.

They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

If you keep them all one one continent it wouldn't be so bad. Defeats the purpose a bit but still. 7 Proxies.

Drag Me to Hell is a movie that made me terrified yesterday. Normally I'm not very impressed by jump-scare movies, but this one didn't really do anything but make one jump. All the goddamn time. Just about the only part that wasn't suspenseful was when the demon was right there in the room with the main character during a seance. When the least scary part of the movie is 'oh shit there's a demon trying to kill everyone while a goat is screaming profanity', there's something seriously wrong with said movie.

You had me at "while a goat is screaming profanity."

While I'll leave political terrors out of this since they're the only thing really scaring me right now, I'll just leave a little tidbit of psychology here. According to some psychologists all arousal, be it fear, sexual arousal, surprise, etc. is all the same basic mechanism that is simply misinterpreted by the brain. As such being terrified near someone can cause you to think they're more attractive since you're not sure whether or not it's them or the fear stimulus that's arousing you.

I know it's hard to believe, but even if you don't it's not a hard concept to apply. Just take first dates to horror movies if they like that sort of thing, or watch a B movie about goats screaming profanity with your romantic interest. Couldn't hurt*.

My parents went to see Poltergeist way back when as a date. My father still has claw marks on his arm.

Incidentally, the dude who produced that has a new movie coming in a week.
So, that's something to look forward to.

No. No it is not. There are some parts that represent an eating disorder of some kind, but nothing at all says anything about anyone refusing to eat food. I mean, bodily fluids and arms and whatnot are going into her mouth, not away from it.

This is why I'm going to use my pseudogf's excuse to stick to me "Oh _name redacred_ get me a 3D game to help me develop my motor skills!" to feed her Dead Space.

Thought that I sent a email to the wrong person for a few seconds. I didn't however, so it quickly passed.

What could you be possibly sending that would make you panic if it were to fall into the... Wrong eyes?
