This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath
No this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood
And walking arm in arm
You hope it don't get harmed
But even if it does
You'll just do it all again
And on the radio
You hear November Rain
That solo's awful long
But it's a good refrain
You listen to it twice
'cause the DJ is asleep |

"You probably have seen Euclid's proof of the infinitude of the primes somewhere, but if not, you have missed out on one of the most crucial pillars of human knowledge that ever have been found. It would be a gap in your experience of life as sad as never having tasted chocolate or never having heard a piece of music."

For the first three people that reply to me and re-post this challenge - I will send you something groovy.
It might be something I've made, or something cool from my hidden stash of fabulousity, it might be a mix CD - or a rubber duck, a book I think you will enjoy, or something else that is awesome.
Whatever it is, I promise that I will get it to you in 365 days or less. (I will need your snail mail if you're not local).
The only thing you need to do in order to participate is to be one of the first three to reply to this, AND post this very same thing on YOUR live journal - cause its fun to give people stuff. |

This website is so awesome. You can go to the root, or this will just give you a random one somebody else did.
Best one I got so far was Edgeworth channelling Mr. Garrison, but, well, you can always abuse this tool yourself.

FEUDALISM: You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.
PURE SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them in a barn with everyone else's cows. You have to take care of all of the cows. The government gives you as much milk as you need.
BUREAUCRATIC SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and put them in a barn with everyone else's cows. They are cared for by ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and eggs as the regulations say you need.
FASCISM: You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them and sells you the milk.
PURE COMMUNISM: You have two cows. Your neighbors help you take care of them, and you all share the milk.
RUSSIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the government takes all the milk.
CAMBODIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. The government takes both of them and shoots you.
DICTATORSHIP: You have two cows. The government takes both and drafts you.
PURE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors decide who gets the milk.
REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors pick someone to tell you who gets the milk.
BUREAUCRACY: You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.
PURE ANARCHY: You have two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbors try to take the cows and kill you.
LIBERTARIAN/ANARCHO-CAPITALISM: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.
SURREALISM: You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons |

Okay, I went through and looked it up. I know I'm the only one of my immediate friends geeky enough to have all the older games, so...
Once I unlock Pal Park, I will be transfering all the following Pokemon over from the 3rd gen games. If there's something you'd like, let me know, and I'll breed it for you. Any moves or natures, I can try and get for you too, I don't mind. (Remember, you can't look for Pokemon on the GTC that you haven't seen yet!) You may BORROW my legendaries for the Dex entries (I will not be cloning, sorry, and I guess this means I'm not gonna pimp out my Mew on XD because...I don't have XD yet and I want him on DP damnit --;). All this said, it'll probably be a month or two before I find time to finish the game.
JESUS THAT'S A LONG LIST. Uhm. If there's anything else you want me to trade over (say, shit that you can't manage to catch in the Safari) just say the word.
(This also means I have EVERY 3rd gen Pokemon except Celebi, Lugia, Deoxys, and uhm, Ekans/Arbok and Growlithe/Arcanine and Lunatone lololol so somebody else get those last three plz) |

| Yay! |

So, I bought a DS. Only one game right now.
If anybody has anything they want to play over Wi-Fi with me, let me know and if it's already on my list it's going to the top!

The ending of Xenosaga blew my mind so hard that I couldn't even concentrate today at work. Seriously. I am having to restrain myself from spouting spoilerific exclamations.
It was somehow pedestrian and epic all at once. It wasn't nearly as cliched as I expected either, and I certainly had a few surprises. (It helps that I didn't remember where I recognized the name Rennes-le-Château from or that would have ruined part of it.)
My only complaints are that it still didn't really explain Wilhelm, or Nephilim, and U-DO turned out to just be incidental. (Nephilim is at least explained in the database in your clear data and frankly it's very underwhelming and makes you wonder why she was important.)
OH AND CHAOS != JESUS LOLOLOL I SWEAR. |

WARNING: MASSIVE XENOSAGA SPOILERS (and slight Xenogears) AHEAD. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Thus Sprake Zarathustra is all kinds of totally frickin' awesome. I miss the deathblows, but, hey, they were already unchanging in Ep2, so it's not that big a deal. This game is frickin' EPIC. I just got to the center of Abel's Ark and it's just like...'HOLY SHIAT THAT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THE CORE OF DEUS DID. I THINK. SINCE I HAVEN'T PLAYED THAT GAME IN SIX YEARS AND MY MEMORY CARD ACTUALLY DIED AT THE SAVE POINT BEFORE THE FINAL BOSS SO I NEVER BEAT IT.'
However...the censorship is abhorrent. I know there was some blood missing in the other two. I know they redid Albedo twisting his own head off so it wasn't as gruesome, but it was still pretty raunchy...we saw the splatters when he blew it off later/earlier, right?
There is not a drop of blood in XS3. I didn't even notice it, figured just nothing gory enough had happened yet, until the hospital scene at the end of Chapter 7. I didn't really notice it when Suou got impaled and hurled against the wall - figured the angle obscured it. Something felt wrong when the 27-Series were stabbing Aoi repeatedly - white sheets on the bed btw - and still nothing.
But when you see Shion's outstretched hands cupped at her mother's side, stammering something incoherent about 'somebody fix her, help me put it back', and you realize that THERE'S SUPPOSED TO BE BLOOD POURING OVER HER HANDS...yeah. That kinda takes the impact out of it.
KOS-MOS Version 4 is TOTALLY FUCKIN' BITCHIN' though.
