The Hangout....where sanity is overrated.

[Deuxia Devonair]

And.. let's continue the zombie rampage!


(I'm so going to hell for posting that.....)

I just came back from my vacations and I feel fresh and renewed! How have you been? *Deuxi feels that reading more than 30 pages of past posting will turn her into a dizzy human-like being*

whee

I'm happy to be here again. I found a way to break through the company's firewall and get browsing to post at Gaia. Mwhaha. cool  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Yaaay zombies!!


QA - There are about a billion and five kinds of cases for iPods. It makes me jealous (but does not lessen my resolve).

Being paid to do nothing is always a feat. 3nodding


Akahoshi - heart ! Good to see you! And good to see you healthy, too! Don't work yourself too hard, ok?

Oh for...does art theft know NO bounds? The Internet practically begs for stunts like that. ...Tch. If I ever meet that man, I'm confiscating his hands.


axel - Oh, just wait until you really get to see Ashe in action. And by "action," I mean "generally being obnoxious but expecting everyone to listen to her anyway."


Deuxia - That comic has a valid point: those who rise from the dead are zombies. Even Jesus. xd

I'm glad to hear you've been doing well. And congrats on breaking through the firewall! I'm disturbingly impressed. whee  

[Nyome]

Ahh, Robin Williams is like the old perverted grandpa I never had. heart

I heard talk of mp3 players and such? I've been holding myself back from buying an iPod for um... however long they've been around. That peer pressure thing is tough!

I recently got the 1GB Creative Zen Nano Plus though. I know 1GB seems kind of low, but I was getting edgy with no music. The hobos just aren't quite as pleasing to the ears, I'm afraid.

What I kind of hate about Creative is how crappy their products look online. For some reason I gush and goo over the adorableness IRL, but then I look back at the online picture and I'm not impressed at all. I guess it's the same with the Wacom Intuos. I thought they were the ugliest, plainest (albeit powerful) tablets, but they're really so sexy they make my eyes and heart hurt.

So, what're everyone's summer plans? : )  

[QAtheTenkou]

Hoshi - 'Suuuup?!

Is art theft even a surprise anymore?

Axel - Which reminds me, I need more music. ninja

If an iPod does survive a nuclear fallout, does it transform into a Zune?

Yes, it protects the wheel by covering it. Still works exactly the same way and with no real pressure. The plastic cover may as well not be there for the sensitivity. Even then, the covers over the wheel and screen are removable.

Deuxia - Don't worry, I've already got a rave party planned in Hell for when I get there. You're invited. heart

All hail for breaking through! Welcome back! To Hell with workplace regulations!

Where'd you go/what'd you do for vacations?

Yume - You shall SUCCUMB. LOOKIT THE SHINY.

*is shot*

And today, I dared the last hour with it on the floor. Mwuahahaha...

Nyome - ...

*pokes the belly of Nyome-bunny in sig* OMG SO CUTE whee Hee~

Summer plans? Trying to con a friend of mine and his partner to visit for my birthday so we can do karaoke and party. =D Maybe move out of state, hopefully. Going on vacation at the end of this week. You?

Hee, Nyome-bunny belly... *poke*  

[Deuxia Devonair]

AyDee> xD! someone here thought of a way to do it, but no one tried to do it so far (it worked! yay!).... it involves a method that reminded me of you: changing the extension of an executable system file. ninja

Nyo> 1gb is low? I cope with 512mb! gonk crying *pokes belly*


Tenkou> Aaghh... I partied, went to the beach (this a very small country and you can be at the beach in less than an hour or at the mountains in an hour), went to the movies to see "300" (RAWR!) and also went downtown.... someday I'll bring pictures in... it looks like one of those asian markets, so crowded, dirty and full of cheap merchandise... >D...

This is part of what I did... http://deuxia.multiply.com/photos/album/21
(most of you will know who I am in those pictures... if you don't know, there's a headshot with my name)

Mew! Deuxi doesn't want to go to Hell but... the rave party sounds tempting. xd heart  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Nyome - My brother has one of those and he loves it. I'm not a fan of the AA battery thing, but it can't be avoided with a player that small. Creative's a good brand. I don't think you'll be disappointed by it.

Summer plans? Working... xd


QA - NEVER! DOOM AND DEATH ON j00!!!


Deuxia - Brilliant! I'm so proud of whoever that was! whee Changing file extensions has to be one of the sneakiest things ever...especially when some people don't bother making file extensions visible in the first place.  

[Chibi Koji]

Geez, coming back to life is like a fad or something. o.o Heya everyone, again!

I've gone and disgraced myself by going out and getting a new graphics card and (Pause full of reluctancy/hesitation/shame.) World of Warcraft. And because of the two new addictions to my poor comps feeble tower, my internet ONLY wants to bend over for Warcraft, and refuses to put out for anything else. It crawls. Its screams. It doesn't let me stream video.
Imma castrate it a few more times to hopefully get it to let me go on Gaia comfortably. :m


Has anyone else heard Avril Lavigne's attempt at being ethnic? I love mandarin chinese. xd  

[Abandoned Dreams]

My favorite author of all time died today. Kurt Vonnegut was probably the most cynical, angry, bitter old man the literary world has ever known...and he will be sorely missed. crying


Koji - WoW, huh? Meh. Never played it. I did, however, buy a graphics card JUST for the S-video output, which makes me even more pathetic than you. pwned

Mandarin...wha? xd



In other news:

I'm not sure what anime everyone's going to be following this season (if any), so I'll just toss out some names and see if anyone else's planning on watching them and raving about them at regular intervals.

Darker than Black
AD interest level: 4/5
Reason: Fighting and supernatural nonsense. High-quality animation.

sola (sora)
AD interest level: 2/5
Reason: Some girl can't see the sky...because she's a creature of night...or something. Below-average character design.

Bokurano
AD interest level: 1/5
Reason: 15 kids using a fighting robot to fight...other...robots. Too many damn characters. Will drop this one if it doesn't improve.

El Cazador de la Bruja
AD interest level: 3/5
Reason: Music by Yuki Kajiura. Good animation quality. Painfully cliched storyline.

Claymore
AD interest level: 4/5
Reason: Reminds me of Vampire Hunter D/Blood the last Vampire/Ghost in the Shell, art-wise. Standard half-human, half-something-else storyline.


Carryovers from last season: NANA, Death Note  

[axel]

Claymore sounds interesting, i may have to check that one out. whee
and of course i will be on the Death Note boat. /o/

--
ok, i've got a fun story about art on gaia.
i was in an auction last summer and the person who won split the prize with another user. (which i suspect is a mule...buh?)
anyways, it took them a couple of months to get the info to me, and i recently finished a part of it (i always finish a chunklet and get it approved first), and i sent it to the *mule*, since she was the one who got my part, and lo and behold, she hasn't logged on since the beginning of april.
i check the original winner, and he hasn't logged on either. nor has he posted since december. i pmed him as well, and the messages are still in my outbox.
it's only been a couple of weeks, but color me paranoid. confused
i feel like a d**k for taking such a long time but i hope they haven't completely abandoned gaia yet.  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Damn. Talk about crazy stuff going on at VA Tech today.


axel - Claymore's OK. I like the art, and the music is unusual, and the voiceacting isn't half bad, but the storyline is so done to death that I don't think the twists inspired so much as a blink.

Death Note's going to be a lot harder to stay with now that L is gone .

Regarding the auction winner(s): If they hadn't contacted you regarding your slow pace, and you've been logging on in the meantime, it isn't really your fault. Worst-case scenario is that they might have forgotten. sweatdrop  

[Find_The_XdOGx]

Hi guys~ =D

Sorry I haven't been around and stuff. I've been hanging out at Menewsha lately. sweatdrop  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Seth - I actually had to look that up. It looks like a Gaia clone...but that's little surprise. Is the company there any better? Or have the preteens already descended?

Shiro - xd That's so wrong. On so many levels.

And VGcats is permanently awesome.  

[Find_The_XdOGx]

AD> Do you remember old Gaia? You know, when it was actually about the community instead of the gold? Yeah it's like that, since it's not large... also there Easter event was better in my opinion. xP
