  1. VVVVVV 2.0!

    You know what's rad? The VVVVVV soundtrack.
  2. Tattoooooooo

    I have a ton of moles, and one scattering on my right upper arm look like Ursa Major. If ever I decide to take the plunge, and work out what inks I can use (I'm allergic to things), I'm getting them joined up with a dotted line, like you see in star charts. Also I think, based on Thunderpeel's advice, I'll get a facial tattoo of a naked mermaid hugging a white tiger.
  3. Life

    Like dropping almost $1000 to cross the Atlantic in a tiny metal tube with a screaming child sat behind me, a plague-carrier beside me and a fat man who loves reclining sat in front. Hooray air travel. (I'll be in the UK from Nov 2nd through the 9th. But am too poor to do much more than visit my parents and spend hours on the National Express*.) * Take the National Express when your life's in a mess it'll make you smile all human life is here from the feeble old dear to the screaming child

    I shall keep my metaphorical fingers crossed for your metaphorical grip.
  5. Life

    Just visiting, for a few days or so. That reminds me, I need to look at air fares today (urgh).
  6. Life

    As I said, exaggeration, but one based on my immediate reaction to the news/e-mail. I'm not mad or upset - by now it's more of a funny story. Longish story made short: my Dad is sick (early-onset dementia) and my parents had been planning to move back to England ever since his diagnosis last year. They sold their house in the US and I knew they would be leaving quickly after, sometime in June. I suspect my mother thought she had already told me the exact details of when, but she didn't. Hence the "oh hey we arrived back in England" e-mail and my surprise. (I'm in FL and wasn't able to take any time off to visit/help. Obv there was a lot going on over there at the time and I totally understand how she could have forgotten that she didn't tell me the details. I also know this story basically makes me sound like the worst child ever.)
  7. The sad sad tale of Tim Langdell

    Y'all are lucky that the paper I have to write this week about info policy can't be about copyright/trademark/IP because I already covered that topic (NOT REIGNITING THAT ARGUMENT ABOUT CR/TM HONEST). I would rock the shit out of a paper about Tim Langdell. seriously rock the shit out of it you guys

    I may have mentioned this when it happened last month, but my parents moved out of the country without telling me. (That's a little bit of an exaggeration, but boy, imagine my surprise when I opened the e-mail from my Mum that said "Hi! We moved back to England; arrived last night." O OKAY THEN)

    DEM SOME SWEET SHOES
  10. Idle Thumbs Camping

    What a pity I won't be in the country until November.
  11. Plug your shit

    Brillo == brilliant
  12. Plug your shit

    It's 'cause I'm just a giiiiiiirl. Jeez, that Mirror's Edge thing is depressingly unexpected.
  13. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    So was I, Dan, so was I. But one day you have to face it - SEGA got furry.
  14. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    Not exactly cross-posted - I had about 50 girl Links on mlkshk! I really like this one, but I wish it didn't look like someone ran it through Instagram.
  15. Something witty about OnLive

    Quite apart from OnLive, more games should do this.
  16. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    Sorry, I couldn't hear you there. Girls being Mario, was it?
  17. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    I'm so ashamed of myself. Yet, strangely, not ashamed enough to close all these tabs...
  18. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    And for legality (horsebag GAMEBOAT)

    Augh, and I seem to have lost my copy of v3i1. Curses.
  20. Plug your shit

    What's a jerk suit? I was going for a sort of H Golightly meets Raffles air - she's a cat burglar sort of adventuress. I imagine a bigger chest would just get in the way of stealing things. However, I could give it a try. (This is a problem I have with the earlier L Croft designs. As a chesty person myself, I can tell you they do get in the way sometimes, and L Croft would have problems raiding tombs with her build.)

    Bah. Amazon insists it's not out over here for a while yet. CURSE YOU F COLONY.
