Okay. Here is what to do next:

Vector's reading corner: Introducing Dr. Seuss.

Hmm... to admit I'd love to see someone who sort of dislikes that Horton Hears a Who movie too.

Gosh, you kinda sound like the actress who played Glados. Not her Glados voice, her actual voice.

That was not what I expected at all.

Yeah I know, kind of an odd comment, I was just surprised. I don't know what I was expecting but I'm consistently surprised when I meet or hear people I've predominately known online.

More on topic, I'm enjoying it immensely so far. It's a Disney movie with Vector commentary, which is a great thing to come home to.

Haha, well, I'm really glad to hear that you're enjoying it >_<  There's... more than a couple giggle-fits in there.  But hopefully they won't detract too much >_> <_<

Yeah, I'm not sure if voice porn was a thing before that stream but apparently now it is (in the same way that, say, a cathedral is architecture porn, or a ridiculous cake is food porn). I'm saying that Vector's voice was constantly complimented, and I can't honestly disagree with them, although possibly the frequency of such compliments was a bit... weird. Just my perspective, though, and it's hardly universal Truth.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I'm still shocked about it, to be honest--guess folks just like ladies with low voices.  But at least everyone has a different voice to read my posts in now >_> <_<

Nah, you still have a Scots accent in my head. But then, everyone does, even if I know what they sound like.

Yaup. You still sound the same in my head. Now that you point that out it is really weird.

Although I guess when you look at it, it is not so odd. I have been reading your posts with this once voice in my head for about two years now, but I have only heard your real voice for one afternoon.

After listening to the voice actor for GLaDOS again, Vector's is somewhat similar in tone, but seems to be more smooth and mellow.

As for the voice of people on the forums, I typically read them in all in a similar gender-neutral tone with a more or less adult/childishness feel based on their typical post quality.

I vote MGS for the next stream, with more movies in following streams.

I support MGS for the next stream as well.

On the subject of mental voices, somthing strange happened to me after hearing Vector's actual voice, that being that I lost my mental voice for reading Vector's posts entierly. I can barely even remember what it sounded like before.

There's a certain charm to listening to someone talk they don't even have to have a particularly good voice, just as long as it's at least somewhat comforting to listen to.
It's probably an instinct people develop as a baby listening to their parents talk to them. People tend to have quite a few odd instincts kept around from their first few years.
