Sorry if my picture wasn't too clear.. I was trying to figure out how to do it.. I've never done screenshots before Even though I'm dating a CS major For those of you who don't know, the photo is of me and Arguas, at the very beginning of last summer... I had one of my favorite cute pics of us up for a while (us at our school carnival last year), but I decided it was time for a change a few weeks ago, and I just kinda like this one cuz its cute
has all the dl's and tutorials an aspiring computer ddr'er could wish for
LOL.. Damn straight I'm aspiring... I'm horrible at DDR normally.. Ryan has tried to teach me several times, and I have never quite gotten the hang of it, though I am more than willing to give it a shot (ALWAYS on easy) whenever I get the chance! My school gameroom's PS2 broke awhile back, so I've never really been able to play, or even watch Ryan play, since then... It was always fun watching him play sometimes He's amazing at it... I have far, far less coordination with my feet than he does... However a computer version of it, I wouldn't mind trying I did play a sort of hand-version of it at an arcade last Thursday with a friend... you wave hands on the tops and bottoms of sensors, according to the circles that come up on the screen... It was fun.... and being Deaf, I do declare, my hand coordination is FAR better than that of my clumsy feet.
@ omna: looks like stepmania and you are a perfect fit!
@ alacar: just read your thing about lolicon's. I agree its completely nasty, overall, i think its that aspect of anime that gives it such a "bad" name in mainstream culture.
@ omna again: if you need help installing songs (trickier than it appears) i can help on aim or pm
MEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THE GOLDEN COMPASS!!!!!!!!!!! I miss that book! I read the first and second one at least twice, but i never actually got around to reading Amber Spyglass... When I first read the books, they only had the two, then Amber Spyglass came out later.. I haven't had the opportunity to pick it up.. I really should re-read the whole series..... Same with Narnia.... and practically every book I read as a young'un!
yeah, it's such a great series. I think I read it 2 years ago, but book tend to stay with me for a long time. I might re-read them, but I like to see the movie, re-read the book, then get the movie when it comes out on DVD and watch it again
Thanks Omna for putting me in the casuals (Dont know if its ok to call you Danica yet I'm very reserved and shy about calling people by their names if im not sure its ok)
Feel free to call me by name. You can call me Q, PurpleD, Trenton or just Trent. Actually, you can call me anything except for "silk stainer"... that's reserved for someone else...
just found the lucky star 17 raw and just watched it. OMG, my favorite character had an episode for her.
and while being asian isnt a pre-requisite to being good at ddr, evidently its somewhere in my heritage because i am pretty good at it, even if i'm also only half.
good night guys, see you in the morning. may the light of communist haruhi show you along the path (LOL)
Ah a new thread. That last one sure was quite long I must say.
@Pizza: Don't worry. If you post here long enough and remain active you will make the front page. It took me something like two weeks of very active posting to make it.
Now I must shower before work. Tata!
EDIT: I shall resist you all and not get a Transformers avvy!
Good morning all and nice a new thread. I am going to go to work soon but just wanted to drop in and say good morning to you all. I really like everyone's desk tops hehe. Anyway i have an 8 hour shift today and a day off tommorrow so thats the good thing. Anyway here is my desktop and have a good day everyone!
Love,
Cecilia

What the hell is a broom of doom, and why does it get a thread title before the timeless classic of the waffle iron? I'm deeply offended.
Anyway, I have a big meeting at work today. We're doing an intervention for two particular clients, and I have to admit, I'm actually quite nervous about it. I had to take a Tylenol PM to be able to get to sleep last night, and it's got me pretty anxious. I'm hoping it goes well, and that there aren't any drastic, over the top dramatics, but I highly doubt I'll get that lucky.

They are not gone. The house is just so fast right now my LittleDaisy friend.
@Hot pizza and Bloodydoves: Dudes, it will take time for you to be in the regulars list and after that it will also take time before you have your house title. Adam, youre lucky to be in the first page list in a very short time. For me it took me weeks just to be listed(and Danica told me Im even lucky for that) And even months before I got my title, everyone's unique in the house and if you are known by something special, then Im sure Danica can have a name for you.
Well congratz to the new thread, Ill update my sigs after Ive posted this.
AND in other news, my dad's birthday is today. He turns 44 today. Unfortunately, he's in Louisiana performing field training drills.
Your missing half the album, for shame...
For those who want too know, he's missing:
Vince DiCola: Escape
Vince DiCola: Autobot-Decepticon Battle
Vince DiCola: Unicrons Theme
Spectre General: Hunger
Spectre General: Nothing's Gonna Stand in Our Way
Weird Al's: Dare too be Stupid
Again, for shame...

Also, Little Dragon, PM sent...
EDIT: My dad wins at life, when he came home from work last night, he bought be a present, when I woke up this morning I had:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows sitting on my desk. Warm fuzzies all around!
Well if we are talkin about desktop screenshots then you might wanna see the official thread for desktop screenshots. I have 3 or four posts in that page I think..
I change my desktop wallpaper often but right now I'm going with the following:
It's kinda a running theme with my wallpapers - hot women or abstract wallpapers. Right now its hot womens... I seriously don't know why Dreia hasn't screamed at me for this yet even though she's known for a LONG time.
Quote from Tanthalas »
Video Killed the Radio Star! Dreia, I love you :love:.
I was going to show my home one but was afraid it would be kind of risque...but after seeing Crims (which is dead sexy) it should probably be fine. If he doesn't get banned I will post mine :-P
So.. I'm at the entrance to Ganon, on level 9 of Zelda 1, first mission. Wish me luck. I've got all the gear, everything, and about 85 arrows, with all but 2 hearts full. I shouldn't have too much trouble.
Ganon (in my opinion) is not one of the hardest fights in the game, so you should be fine.
Quote from Omna »
Has it ever happened to you guys where someone was in an incredible mood, but you just couldn't seem to match it? That happened to me and Ryan tonight.. Man that sucked! It was great that he was in such a great mood, feeling really aweosme about us, and stuff, and I just was kind of... off, I guess you could say.
You did use nine smilies in this post, so you're probably feeling at least all right.
Quote from Omna »
Right now I'm still reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows... On page 502 right now
I was like, 'wait, she's not done yet?' Then I imagined you reading in braille, and then I was like, 'wait, that's not right.'
Quote from Alacar »
I beat Ganon, no problem. On to Quest 2! Then I'll get Zelda 3 (Zelda 2 is.. dastardly to me)
Zelda 2, while the black sheep of the 'normal' Zelda series (some of the spinoffs are even stranger) had its charms for me back in the day. I won't pretend it's nearly as good as many of the others, though.

Hehe. Post yer desktops peoples.

LOL.. Damn straight I'm aspiring... I'm horrible at DDR normally..
I mean this in the nicest way possible, but being able to do well at DDR at all if you can't hear the music well is pretty dang impressive. (I don't know how well you can hear music; my cousin, who can't hear speech, can hear the bass parts of some songs.)
At the risk of perpetuating stereotypes, most of the people I know who are best at DDR are Asian. In my experience, there's very little correlation between actual dancing ability and DDR; I know people who are good dancers who are also good at DDR, people who are only good at one, and people (like yours truly) who are good at neither.
Quote from LittleD »
Lastly joyd, I liked you're geek list, pity my immense knowledge was'nt exploited, alas I always make my posts sound like I'm drunk that way people can't identify me as intelligent, hahaha!
Like I said, the list was compiled by looking for instances where people cleanly identified themselves as geeks; many huge geeks didn't make the list.
Quote from Hot Pizza »
I don´t see myself on the list
sigh....
It normally takes a week or two for people to be added. It's not some kind of elitism thing, it's just that we get quite a lot of people who post for a few days and then don't show up much.

I haven't the slightest idea either. Must have been something from when I was gone. Or maybe it's a joke FROM THE FUTURE.
I'm in Utah for less than two more weeks, then it's back to Minnesota again for me. (I've been doing research here, and I'm going back to my old job for a month before classes start, at which point I cut down to ten hours a week at that job.)

I know some white ass people, who can play DDR like nobody's business. Though Asians are often the best, the white man CAN, in fact, dance.

The Broom of Doom is what Arguas used to smite Alacar and Sakura who were.... performing illicit acts underneath a Dimir Blanket. <_< >_> There was much yelling of "THIS IS MAGIC COFFEEHOUSE!!!" and smitalicious acts were performed upon them by the Broom of Doom. I should know, I was there. <_<
OMG im such a noob! i cant even figure out how to upload my screenshot without using hosting sites suchas photobucket(is it even possible? man i feel like an idiot :p) man thats sad
I seem to be using a lot this last couple of weeks trying to stop aint easy Lol i actually didnt wanna type the last 2 damn again....
I used Photobucket. <_< I always use Photobucket. <_<
You the "Go Advanced" button. There is a "Manage Attachments" option after that. That will upload the image. You can then copy the URL for the uploaded image into an Image tag if you like (but that is optional)

That sounds weak. Who is afraid of being hit with a broom, I mean, seriously. Also, the only thing Arguas has the power to smite is my attention span when he makes one of his "catch-up because I only post once during each lunar cycle" posts.
I suppose I'll join in for the desktop screencaps. My desktop is a mess, but you'll deal with it.

QFT! I took Arguas' advice and checked that game out, and I love it. It could certainly do with a fresh version!

I make all my own wallpaper. My old one was from our comic, but that's confidential
