What is this BotU I keep hearing about? a popularity contest? I'm just confused on how a poll could cause controversy in the shop...
@Nai- Can you hit a link for your world? I would like to see it. I've got my own world in my head and wish to put it on paper, but I like to see how others have done it. I won't swipe anything, I just love flavor.
I have Vanilla Chai today, so chocolate chai can't be that hard to make, I've just go to get chai mix!

Emphasis mine, in answer to your original question.
I already hit him up for it. It looks like most of it is still in Nai'sheadland.

What is this BotU I keep hearing about? a popularity contest? I'm just confused on how a poll could cause controversy in the shop...
You hit the nail on the head. The thing with popularity contests - especially on a site like this where the average age I'd be is under 18 - is that people tend to get emotionally involved with them. That in turn ends up with a bunch of complaining demi-masochists (trust me a lot of them really ask for it) and some forum drama to go with it.
Add to that the potential for braggery and other possibilities and you have a pretty good cocktail for a forum bomb.
I'm quite fine with BotU tho... it's not like there aren't already popularity contests going on in high schools around this nation. It's all in natural progression, IMO. We just need the thing to be moderated and controlled correctly and the current stance on no adverting it in your clan is certainly a good start. (Edit: That is the rule right?)
Quote from Skitsojd »
So apparently, the Geico Caveman is getting his own Sitcom.
Oh, boy... I'd say this is the moment TV died but I think that happened YEARS ago... I just don't like the sounds of this. The Sprint detective guy at least looked and sounded the part for his own show - this is just RIDICULOUS.
Quote from Yukora »
But it's good to be busy
Agreed... It's much better than being bored like I was this weekend.
Yeah, it's still in my head. I have a story of it up somewhere, which I could probably find if anyone wanted it. It's very childish and, now that I look back on it, has some heavy ties to Harry Potter. I'm trying to expand on that world.
By the way, when people say "it's a popularity contest", they don't mean, "It's supposed to be (whatever), but it's actually just a popularity contest." It really is justa popularity contest and doesn't pretend to be anything different.
Hey everyone. Sorry for the lack of activity but pressing matters have come that when ever I am on I am mostly dealling with issues till i get off. Plus the more I am online the more I get pissed that a certain someone has yet to talk to me. Oh well. My stress point is reaching its end soon. Plus I have a very busy day ahead of me tomorrow with a ton to do at work and my brothers Birthday I STILL have to get a gift for. May just take him out and let him pick a game. Also been using the free time I have to REDO the entire game team I have and its only 2 of us now on the team. But its clear we will be doing alot in the next few months to make a name for ourselves. Anyway Also want to say next week I will be on vacation for about 5-6 days. Anyway I'll be on a few more mins then heading to bed.
I see Dragonstar lurking on the "currently viewing" thingy =)
Well, I just got done organizing and getting started setting up the new apartment. It's looking good, if not for a few snags. For one thing, our kitchen has a LOT more storage space than our last apartment's (read: enough for an actual person to use), but it's still awkward. Also, our hot water keeps going out because the wiring downstairs is almost a century old, so yeah. I've never in my life had to take a cold shower until this afternoon, and I can say that the next time I'm hot and bothered I'll just do something ELSE about it ¬_¬;;
But! The living room looks great. Still boxes everywhere, but we'll take care of that tomorrow. And Josh was telling me about something Dave/Joyd said a while back; something about a park bench inside. It sounds awesome, and they have a great-looking bench at our local Big Lots, so I wanna do it
Also, watermelon red vines are awesome. And giving my entire party a bunch of magical business cards is FUN.
@nai: Again, it's been some 15 years since I read Bridge to Tarabithia, but all the major elements I remember being there are there. Yes, it's altered a bit to fit within 2006 compared to 197X, but it's done tastefully and with restraint. At their essence, all the characters remain the same (the casting director did an amazing job). And the fates of the characters were left intact as well. There was not a dry eye in the house. Trust me, go see it.
@mamelon: things are going quite well. between work, school, girlfriend and d&d I've been quite busy (I actually haven't played magic in 3 weeks!). but life is good.

I did get to watch Pick of Destiny this evening. It was quite... Jack Black being himself. Letting it all hang out (in more ways than one :o), so to speak. I didn't expect any more from the movie than that it declare itself to be awesome, and loudly, and my expectation was met about 5000 times over. Fun, but only worth a watch once, IMO.
I don't think I'll do very well in the weekly contest this week, mainly due to my banner being, well, crap, since I put it off until the last minute and then rushed to get it done. I turned the color/contrast up *just a scoch* too much :rolleyes:. *Wonders what he was thinking* The new contest is to make a scary/creepy banner. Maybe if I get started early enough I'll have a better shot.
Other than that, not much going on. I'm looking forward to seeing what I've got downloaded when I go in to my broadband haven after work tomorrow. Love Hina should be done, and maybe some episodes of Higurashi. I'm still gonna finish Blood+ first though. That and Yukikaze.
One of my friends wanted me to come up to WSU one last time to see him before he graduates, and I can't remember if that's this week or next week, so I need to call him. If it's this week, I'll have to head up there this Wednesday, and maybe stay the night again. I wanna go hang out with people again anyway, so it looks to be fun.
I'll be free to play PL games tomorrow if anyone wants to play from 2:00pm-5:00pm eastern. Once again, PM me for games, since I don't have any other messaging system. I really need to get my trade list up and running, too.
Allright. That's it for me tonight. See you all in the morning. Oyasumi jikan desu yo. (Time for bed).
Right, So I was scouring the past 'Weekly' stuff, and was one of my favorite Daft Punk songs is up there, 'Something about us'. This got me thinking, and looking for the original 4 music video's that Daft Punk made that got me interested in them and Techno. Each Aired on Cartoon networks late night Toonami, around 2001-3ish i think (When they played good stuff). Well, one night they had an entire night dedicated to Music Video's and the special was these 4 Daft Punk Video's form Interstella 5555. The Four songs are, in order,
One more time, Aerodynamic, Digital love (My favorite, and it skips on my CD *tear*), and Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger. I've checked Youtube for the original Video's from Toonami, but I only found the original for Digital love, and not the others. If you know where I can find these please help!
Good evening, Coffeehouse. It seems like we have a lot of people viewing but not too much posting going on...
Well I have had an okay day so far. I just had an awesome burger with bleu cheese. I know it sounds disgusting, but it tastes really really good. Yeah, that was pretty much the only exciting thing that happened today :p.
@BotU: I think I'll hit that up next time, but there's no way I'm going to take it seriously. There's enough drama at school, I'm not going to continue it here.
Well, next time with SapphireTri headin' it up, it shouldn't be nearly as forum-dramatic.... or maybe moreso just kidding, our fave Mod
Anyway I'm thinking i should get some sleep but at the same time I feel like calling up Arguas, but yea, I should give him some space .. heh.. anyway.. yea so gnite, I guess.. I think i'm gonna read for awhile.
Dragonstar: Well, I remember them deciding to make their own kingdom when they crossed that bridge (it was a log, right?), but I dont' remember all the fantasy elements. The monsters and everything. That's what I was concerned about. I think I'd remember that... But it was in about 6th grade when I read it.

Am I right in saying these were the animated videos that featured Voltron-style anime? If that's it then you might wanna look for the full movie instead. Yes they did a full movie for the CD Discovery. It was called Interstella 5555. Alacar would know a lot more about this but you may actually wanna look for that to find what you're looking for.

The animation in those videos was done by the renowned artist Leiji Matsumoto, of Galaxy Express 999 and Harlock Saga fame.
I can't find the videos for you, because that sounds like work, but I did enjoy them and I really liked that Daft Punk album in particular.

Goodnight everyone! Just wanted to wish everyone a great night. See you all tommorrow. Ill be on aol and msn if anyone wants to talk to me. Have a great week everyone! *hugs and blows kisses to everyone* I hope every had a great weekend as well.
I'm active on a skateboarding forum, and it was hacked yesterday. Did a nice job too, but a simple reset was all that was needed to fix it. Unfortunately we were hit again today. vBulletin has terrible security measures against hackers, i could read his code somewhat the first time this guy attacked. He made a thread with a bunch of MySQL INSERT INTO statements that de-moded/de-admined all mods and admins and then deleted them as he made himself admin. It's very annoying, I wish i knew how to do this as well so that I could hack our site, but just take control of the situation. Probably should warn Hannes here, apparently this guy struck a bunch of other vBulletin forums over the past couple of days.
* Sephiroth Owa serves RickCorgan his beverage/hot drink...
Nice to see new people in teh house. Hope you enjoy yourself here... (Please don't hit me if you are a returning customer.)
@Tanthalas: I'm no emo ¬.¬ It just makes me sad that I was kinda popular here a week ago, I'm away for a week, and no-one even replies to my post... Can't be helped though I suppose.
I'm sorry, but this happens to EVERYONE. There is no sense whining about it. I don't mean to seem insensitive, but come on. We have dozens of different members, all with varying schedules, and all of whom go through different periods of activity and inactivity. If we had to stop and welcome them back each time they took a day or so off, we would never do anything but welcome people back.

I'm quite surprised at the number of people who get their feathers ruffled when they announce something and then wander away, and -surprise!- nobody bothers to comment.
It's human nature, people generally aren't very good listeners especially in groups. As much as we'd like to think we Coffeebeans are a breed apart, we all have to work at it.
It might just be me, but it seems a little narcissistic to point out that you left and came back and nobody seemed to notice. Make a polite but informative announcement upon your return. People who noticed your absence, but maybe didn't have a particular comment about it, will welcome news of your goings-on while away.
Hey I wasn't really into posting last night, but I DID notice you were gone Sephy... we did miss you I do declare a lot of people were like "Say, where'd ol' Sephiroth go?" so yea... You were noticed, even if we don't say anything....
And Yukora, I said that because Sapphire's TITLE on the front page is "fave mod" or something to that extent... and yes, I'm going to change it to fave mod and busty woman whatever Photon's role was for "her" in the soap opera... lol.. So, no offense meant, its just that he was the first one here, notice i didn't mention Nai either? So yea. No offense meant. Speaking of which, did Sneaky stay around the site, or did he leave altogether???
So yesterday I played some Chronotrigger... good game.. and been reading a bit of "The Dance of Intimacy" which is a sequel to Dance of Anger... both are good books.. This morning I woke up with a sore ear... my right ear, which is the one that i need to put a hearing aid in to hear out of....
Also, Sephy does it count for those 10pts that I knew where you were going even if FL beat me to it??? If so, drop those 10pts in the cookie jar on the counter.. everyone can share 'em (cuz we DID miss you...at least i did!)
And yea, life is good.. reading a lot, playin' lots of videogames... I'm in the "Future" part of Chronotrigger...its.. interesting.. I hate those friggin' rats that steal one Tonic. *Shakes fist*
I suppose I should go finish my coffee, wash off my plate, (ahhh cheese Danish!) and return to do some serious playin' I either wanna play the Pegasus Cup again, try to beat Leon (but damn that dude's sword is huge and bright) & Yuffie, or continue playing Chronotrigger... I love that game... I seriously think the Chancellor in Chronotrigger was modeled after Kefka or the other way around..whichever came first... they're two bouncy bastards
..and Tanthalas, may I ask... what's a budgie?? O.o
Last episode, our heroine Omna met up with the handsome priest Arguas in the secret library in the Alamo, where they immediately fell in love, but were torn apart by faith!
Meanwhile, former femme fatale Snoopdogg and her ad exec husband Alacar have fallen under the malicious eye of evil CEO Photon Eater. Gumshoe Ethersphere uncovers the truth of his schemes, but before he can warn them, he is gunned down by SapphireTri and her amazingly perky "guns".
Now, we will find out what happens in...
Episode 2: My Heart Overflows with Cappuccino Foam
The Cast-
Omna, a gentle librarian whose heart is full of melancholy! (Actress: Rachel McAdams) Arguas, a handsome Catholic priest with a heart full of conflict! (Actor: Clive Owen) Alacar, the roguish businessman! Also, his heart is FULL! (Actor: Jude Law) Mamelon, the mysterious vixen who tends the bar! (Actress: Natalie Portman) Photon Eater, the CEO of Coffee Incorporated, and evil socialite puppetmaster! (Actor: Daniel Craig) SnoopdoggAtog, housewife with a past- a past of ASSASSINATION! (Actress: Katherine Heigl) SapphireTri, the buxom secretary to Photon Eater. She will ***** slap any woman in a heartbeat! (Actress: Susan Lucci) Ethersphere, the handsome young private eye- also he's dying! (Actor: David Boreanaz)
Introducing Tanthalas as the police captain, Crimson Avatar as the millionaire playboy who once dated Omna, and Dreia as Snoopdogg's wicked mother-in-law who thinks her little boy is far too good for her!
Also featuring Faerie Lord as Fergalicious!
After excavating the rare books she needed in order to obtain her government library science grant, Omna returns to New York, where she laments her feelings for Arguas! Can they ever truly be together?
She turns to Crimson for comforting, unsure of how to make sense of the tangled feelings that constrict her very heart! Can a woman ever make sense of the mysteries of LOVE?
But little does she know, Arguas also is full of woe, lying in his chambers at night, torn between his love for God and woman! He leaves his chapel late that night, and takes a flight to Omna's exquisite New York apartment, and walks in right as she and Crimson come together in a passionate kiss! Has he thrown away his faith for nothing?
Meanwhile, Ethersphere lays dying in the streets, but he is discovered by Tanthalas, who takes him to the hospital. Ethersphere tells him what he knows, but Tanthalas is secretly on Photon's payroll! As Ethersphere lays in his hospital bed, Tanthalas secretly adds deadly poison to his IV in order to silence him! Will he survive another brush with death?
At that moment, Photon invites Alacar and his wife to a business dinner. Photon makes it known very subtly that he knows the truth of Snoop's past, and she seethes with anger as he dangles the knowledge that could destroy her marriage over her! Will the tension prove to be too much to take?
Just then, Dreia appears in the restaurant, and ***** slaps Snoop! Alacar pulls his wild mother off of his bride, and the dinner is ruined! However, that night, Dreia is contacted by Photon, and the two begin scheming over the fate of Snoop! Will Dreia's hatred of Snoop provide Photon with the means to Alacar's downfall? Also, where is Fergalicious?
Also, a few shots of Mamelon polishing glasses!
What will happen? Will Ethersphere survive and warn Snoop in time? Will Dreia become a pawn in Photon's evil scheme? What of SapphireTri? Are those tatas for REAL?
Stay tuned, next time for another exciting episode of Magic Soap-Operahouse!

Was a really good weekend. I came out as Gender Dysphoric to all of my friends and they accepted me without issue. I was so shakey when trying to tell them. These people are like my family, and the only people really important to have accept me. The rest of the day progressed as any other with no hitches. I am sure questions will come up, and as my warddrobe changes and hormones change my appearence I am sure there will be alot of them. I have a good bunch and I must say they are the best group of friends I have ever had.
Generally in Canada people are rather accepting though.
Joselyne agreed to go clothes shopping with me, she has taste similar to mine. It will be nice to shop as a girl for once.
@Nai- Can you hit a link for your world? I would like to see it. I've got my own world in my head and wish to put it on paper, but I like to see how others have done it. I won't swipe anything, I just love flavor.
I have Vanilla Chai today, so chocolate chai can't be that hard to make, I've just go to get chai mix!

After excavating the rare books she needed in order to obtain her government library science grant, Omna returns to New York, where she laments her feelings for Arguas! Can they ever truly be together?

But little does she know, Arguas also is full of woe, lying in his chambers at night, torn between his love for God and woman! He leaves his chapel late that night, and takes a flight to Omna's exquisite New York apartment, and walks in right as she and Crimson come together in a passionate kiss! Has he thrown away his faith for nothing?
Meanwhile, Ethersphere lays dying in the streets, but he is discovered by Tanthalas, who takes him to the hospital. Ethersphere tells him what he knows, but Tanthalas is secretly on Photon's payroll! As Ethersphere lays in his hospital bed, Tanthalas secretly adds deadly poison to his IV in order to silence him! Will he survive another brush with death?
At that moment, Photon invites Alacar and his wife to a business dinner. Photon makes it known very subtly that he knows the truth of Snoop's past, and she seethes with anger as he dangles the knowledge that could destroy her marriage over her! Will the tension prove to be too much to take?
Just then, Dreia appears in the restaurant, and ***** slaps Snoop! Alacar pulls his wild mother off of his bride, and the dinner is ruined! However, that night, Dreia is contacted by Photon, and the two begin scheming over the fate of Snoop! Will Dreia's hatred of Snoop provide Photon with the means to Alacar's downfall? Also, where is Fergalicious?

Also, does anyone know what that big lettered bold comic book font is called that's used for onomatopoeia?
Another great episode Photon.
Was a really good weekend. I came out as Gender Dysphoric to all of my friends and they accepted me without issue. I was so shakey when trying to tell them. These people are like my family, and the only people really important to have accept me. The rest of the day progressed as any other with no hitches. I am sure questions will come up, and as my warddrobe changes and hormones change my appearence I am sure there will be alot of them. I have a good bunch and I must say they are the best group of friends I have ever had.
Generally in Canada people are rather accepting though.
Joselyne agreed to go clothes shopping with me, she has taste similar to mine. It will be nice to shop as a girl for once.
