Whack a ghost.

How do I get past that game? Without rotating my keyboard, thanks, this is a laptop.

In Yooyuball! I mean, I then proceeded to lose the game - but still! I made a goal! Yay!

You carefully walk in and pick up a negg from the pile of treasure, and then scamper!!

Scamper? SCAMPER????

*sniffles*

I'll miss you, scarper. I really will. *starts sobbing*

I can't figure out the last puzzle for the plot, right? So I wanted to take a screenshot for help.

BUT I CANNOT TAKE SCREENSHOTS!!!!

I mean, I'm hitting the fn button, and I'm hitting the button labelled "prt sc" in blue - and nothing is happening. Following the instructions in my computer's help guide, I tried pressing insert as well... and nothing happened.

Actually, something *did* happen. If I did the prt sc bit, then every time I minimized the screen it'd unminimize again. That's something. But how do I get an image out of this? I swear I've done this before, but I can't now, and I feel like such a luddite or n00b or something :(

Really screwed everything all up, too.

PPT seems to think it's only for a week. To be honest, I was thinking "green jelly" myself about this. (And if that wasn't a waste of a plot, I don't know what is....)

But it seems like an awful lot of effort to go through for a drawn-out prank. It's probably just wishful thinking on my part.

In other news, I'm only about 20k from my NP goal. Not sure if I want it anymore, but....

"Oh, I can call people and things retarded because my sister is retarded and she uses the word all the time! Heeheehee!

Well, bully for you and your sister. It's still not a nice word to be throwing around.

Cue random interlopers:

"Oh, but you don't know she was using the word to insult people! It's mean of you to assume that! Maybe she said her zipper was retarded! That's not insulting, because zippers can't be insulted!"

Fortunately, I was spared the indignity of having to point out how baseless that statement is. Somebody else did, only to get the "dictionary definiton" of retarded - to have been caused to slow down. "So it totally applies to zippers!"

Because people really talk like that, of course. They don't apply perjorative connotations to those words, it's just me and you and our sick sad minds! Yeah!

Sometimes, I could just... just.... I don't know. But it's not pleasant, anyway.

(And yes, TNT is quite hypocritical for allowing dumb but not retarded. Normally I'd ignore it, but now I'm struck with a nagging feeling that I should complain and see if they'll ban the word dumb as well.)

And now comments are frozen. Because calling people out on their offensive and prejudiced language is wrong.

I am now offically at the bottom of the Stamp Album high scores list. Go me! Only 60 58 stamps (coins/shells/coconuts) left until I get a trophy!

I simply can't be bothered to change the time. Can I say "can't be arsed"? It's less letters, less syllables. But it would make me look like a Brit wannabe, perhaps a Brit wannabe who's drastically out of date. Of course, I *am* a girl who uses "thee" and "thou" as often as possible, and even now will occasionally throw in some random Latin. Hm. Can't be arsed. What say you?

So, my birthday's in 2.5 hours, my time (the only time that counts!)

Very little of interest has happened. I joined the new-new NC fora, but I still haven't really shown up there - I just don't feel like I've got the time. I miss it, even, but... no.

Oh! And I got Ana a set of the Backyardigans episodes. That show is really nifty. We're not opposed to Ana watching TV in 22 minute segments sans commercials. We're just all opposed to tons of commercials, or having her only watch 2 hour movies.

Only problem is, the DVDs I got, they're missing two episodes - Race Around the World (alleged to feature Zydeco music) and High Tea. Apparently, High Tea, at least, has aired on Noggin, and also is on one of the official DVDs for the show... but I'm unable to download it properly. If anybody can, ah, obtain it for me, I'd be thrilled beyond belief. Or the other one, I'm hardly picky :)

Also, if I can get advice on short (half an hour, an hour, max) TV shows to... ah, obtain... like, from the library... temporarily, of course... I'd be happy. Educational of sorts is good, French is better, too-commercial is a no.

We killed it. With our love.

Or, more appropriately, Sam got bored and forgot us all.

And now I want to re-make the whole site. Because I'm weird that way. I wonder what sort of free web-hosting there is in this world....

(Joined the temp. fora, by the way, for anybody who knows what I'm talking about)

So, I've been trudging through the neopets plot. I don't want to quit now, I'd feel silly. Sillier than I already do, anyway. But, gah! Does anybody happen to have a map of the pyramid, with large enough to read markers of where each category is? I need the following:

( Read more... )

If you can even just tell me which floors each are on, I'd be thrilled beyond belief. Gratias ago.

Either there are more people placing furniture, or the thieves are slowing down - either way, slots are filling up faster. Does this mean we get to do something interesting soon? Only time will tell. Geez, this is a boring update.

But how do I place it in the repository? I didn't get to move any blocks, I didn't find anything fun in all that sand, I wanna place the furniture now!

Edit: Oh, I see. Are there any maps to the damn place, then?

I still have 25 icon spaces left, can you believe it?

Anyway, now, when I post about neo, I can do so the way Glod intended - using my lovely Shadow Usul as a backdrop. Thanks, mandy.

I want to kill those damn meerca henchmen. I want them dead, and I want them dead now. Does anybody have any decent weapons to lend me, like, say, a hypno helmet? Please?
