Back~ [29 Dec 2009|12:36am] sharky_chan [ mood | hungry ] Back in town a day early due to weather. The iguana and plants are still alive, which is always good. We're all a bit peckish here at Chez Shark, but the only ones who are going to get fed tonight are the plants. Boo :(. (The Calorie Mates my roommate got me for Christmas are staring at me, but I'm so saving them for a play-through of MGS3 >_>;;). Bah. Also debating if I want to do research between now and the new year. I'm thinking no. I'm such a bad grad student _o_. post comment

Upside/Downside [28 Dec 2009|04:06am] zalia [ mood | sick ] Upside: I am allowed to app England at Damned :D Yay!!!! Now I just need to like, write it and hope that it's what the mods want to see. Downside: Am discovering that saying 'Oh, one tiny little piece of Brie can't hurt' was a stupid fucking thing to think, especially after not eating cheese at all for several months -_- 1 comment|post comment

[home][america][christmas] tell him about the warts [28 Dec 2009|12:42pm] murasaki_kaze Totally forgot to post to LJ. HI GUYS. I'M IN AMERICA. And yes. I arrived on Christmas, but it was late by the time I got to Arizona so I just...slept. And yesterday, I just forgot. 8D HA HA HA. But I'm here, safe and sound. ( Christmas round-up ) Today went to see the Sherlock Holmes with my sister-in-law and brother. And yeah, while it's different from the original characters, I liked them in their own right. The story was pretty interesting and I rather liked the costuming and setwork. All in all, I'd buy/rent it to see it again and to own it. It seems like a fun movie to watch when you're with friends or doing something. Tomorrow we're going to go see Avatar. 8D And maybe video game/movie shop since I want District 9 like burning. And a few other movies that are far cheaper here than in Japan. Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas/holiday season and here's to a wonderful upcoming New Years! 25 comments|post comment

Stuff [27 Dec 2009|12:01pm] sharky_chan [ mood | chipper ] I started working on handouts for the class I'm TAing for next semester, and found I have another Yuletide story :D:D:D:D. Cable and Deadpool luff~~. Woo, best Christmas ever~ :D:D:D. I'm going home either tomorrow, the day after or the day after that. I dunno.

[26 Dec 2009|11:51pm] firefly99 Poll #1503806 just because i wank to ennio morricone Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 17 If I decided to host a Dollars Trilogy marathon on livestream, would you be interested? (note - livestream is a streaming site which has a chat function so we could all comment on the movies) View Answers Yes. 7 (46.7%) Maybe I'd poke my head in to see a bit of my favourite one. 6 (40.0%) No. 1 (6.7%) fly fly i'm really happy for ya and imma let ya finish but just shut up about these shitty cowboy movies and get back to writing snake porn and essays on the deep hidden meaning of some codec line no-one heard 4 (26.7%) Considering the marathon will be about six and a half hours long, do you have any suggestions for a good time/date if I do it? View Answers Oooiooioooooooo~! View Answers wa wa wa 7 (53.8%) DANG.... DANG... DANNNNNG 3 (23.1%) dadadadun dadadadun wait this is the doctor who theme we're singing right 5 (38.5%) matron~! 1 (7.7%) EDIT: Just for reference - A Fistful Of Dollars (Yojimbo With Cowboys) - an hour and a half long For A Few Dollars More ("AFTER THIS MISSION I'M RETIRING COLONEL") - two hours long The Good, The Bad And The Ugly (The Good-Looking Backstabbing Asshole, The Sympathetic Backstabbing Asshole And The Asshole Backstabbing Asshole) - three hours WARNINGS/TRIGGER INFO: All are pretty violent. In the UK, FoD is a 15 certificate and FaFDM and GBU are 18 certificates, but by today's standards they're really tame. Think about Metal Gear level - violent, but not extensively so and not gornographic. More specifically for each movie: A Fistful of Dollars is the tamest. There's some torture (beating) and someone getting blasted with a shotgun. For a Few Dollars More has a fairly graphic rape scene and a suicide, and is therefore the most brutal of them, in my opinion. It also has some non-graphic torture (beating) and drug use (either cannabis or opium). The Good, The Bad and The Ugly has a pretty graphic torture scene (beating, strangling and a non-graphic eye gouge), and an extended and very tense scene where a character's airway is slowly being cut off. There's a very quick and descriptionless mention of one of the sympathetic main characters being a rapist (which is pretty easy to write out of your mental headcanon), a character is forced to walk in the desert and ends up with severe blisters, and one character is killed by having their head bashed repeatedly against a sharp rock. 10 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|07:29pm] firefly99 Dear RTD: Thanks to the most recent episode of DW, I'm now counting down the days until you leave. ♥ ( spoilery rambling ) FORTUNATELY this is an RTD episode so we know all he has to do is make The Doctor push the Magic Button and save the day. This, and a PM I recieved which I won't expound on here, was not what I needed on Christmas. 1 comment|post comment

"Apparently, I Have Polio Too...." [25 Dec 2009|10:13am] theladyfeylene [ mood | cheerful ] [ music | Christmas Music ] Merry Christmas, to all who celebrate it! Happy Friday to everybody else. :D I know I said I'd be in the land of no internet, but as it turns out, that is not the case. Apparently this year was the year to psych each other out. I was expecting my big Christmas gift this year to be rent money. That's what my folks and I had talked about, and I mentioned a DVR recorder (is that as redundant as ATM machine? I suck at acronyms...) as a wrapped gift. When I opened the square, DVR shaped box this morning.... It was a Macbook Pro. I have a Macbook Pro. He's beautiful. He's very shiny. Which means there's really no choice when it comes to names. I have christened him after the shiniest and sparkliest of them all. But of course will just call him Shinybottom. Now I just need to paint him gold. ;) Though he's clearly not themed, as my home folder/account is named Project Blue. I'm such a dork. And my father is still speechless over the Retro-Duo Nintendo/Super Nintendo system I got him. The first thing he did after family gifts was go out to the garage and haul in his tub of SNES games. We'll be setting his system up shortly. :D It's been a really nice Christmas. And not just because of awesome, unexpected gifts. Christmas has become something really special for me and my parents. Christmas Eve and Christmas morning it's just us. We can relax, we can indulge in those activities that are not grandchildren friendly, and just a bunch of things that have become personal traditions. We capped off Christmas Eve with Lemon Deisel and Jeff Dunham's Christmas Special. Hence the title of this post. :D It's going to get insane when the rest of the family shows up soon, but that's fun too. And hey, I've got plenty of drugs to deal with any stress that comes along. :D I'm clearly also still crazy. I was reading my little Macbook booklet, and when my eyes lit upon 'Garageband', all I could think of was 21 and 24's 'Wonderful Christmas' cover, and I swear I started to tear up. Oh, you awesome fictional characters, why do you make us love you so? And finally, to my remaining RP buddies: I'll be back tomorrow! PS: How do I use spellcheck on a Mac? *winces* 25 comments|post comment

[25 Dec 2009|12:44pm] firefly99 Merry Christmas! I'm sneaking on before Christmas dinner. We went to church, which is usually a very awkwaaaaard turtle experience anyway since both my father and I are athiests and my brother is slowly bending that way, but it was bearable. My brother got given a pipe for Christmas. A real pipe. He loves it. My parents are useless. My father has just buried a bottle of Coke in the remains of mine and cockpuppet's snowman because there's no more room in the fridge. I leave you with the worst lyrics in any carol, ever - E'en so here below, below, Let steeple bells be swungen, And "Io, io, io!" By priest and people sungen. Between the strange Rorschach noises, the random suffixes and the binary solo, this is easily my least favourite Christmas song. 6 comments|post comment
