Lady Olenna Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 So I love to watch those ghost finding shows because some of them show very remote locations around the world that are interesting. I’m watching one now set in some forest in Romania. They do these EVP things that supposedly record spirit voices. How is it that all around the world spirits seem to communicate in English? Awfully convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awfully convenient. That because they are not ghosts but Aliens from other planets. Just about every SCi-Fi show out there has proved Aliens speak English, or their words are automatically translated instantly to make it seem as if they are speaking English.

And naturally, after I posted that there was an episode in which the spirit spoke in its native language. Because of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I much prefer it to Safari, which is the standard browser on Mac, I never use it though, I've never tried Chrome-neither the OS or the Browser. I'm comically inept at using any of the newer versions of Windows too, the last version I used was XP, all those weird squares and stuff on the newer versions confuse me.

Jez Bell Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Good morning everyone. I can't believe I missed the princess debate. Probably a good thing. Too many old scars. I have effectively de-princessed my life and, for a while, pink was a dirty word around here. I am now fully in the process of de-emo'izing and we are bringing pink back, dammit.

You can still join the game. This here was just a discussion before the Elimination Game was opened. You missed nothing. I hope I get my laptop back soon. Nobody at the repair shop is picking up the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Bell Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I've already committed myself to 2 acro games, so I will have to skip the princess battle this time. My kids and I are home sick today, so my plan is to speed watch 10 hours of Westworld to calibrate my fantasy league scoring spreadsheet. Does the fun never end? I may take a little break to walk down the street and put a brick through the window of the car whose alarm has gone off 6 times in the last hour. I meean, get a shittier car or a better alarm!

Huh, the emo phase of most teens in my generation involved quite a lot of pink, albeit paired with excessive black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my kids it was black skinny jeans, baggy band t's (the more macabre the artwork, the better), lumberjack shirts, and boots. And eyeliner. So much eyeliner.

But for some reason there was always a lot of pink accents to the whole look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Bell Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 It's very possible that there was a Barbie-induced pink overload up to the age of 8 or 9, and that was followed by a complete rebellion. Like a tequila hangover. The smell alone would be enough to put you off for years. But then one day, you have a really excellent margarita, and you're back!

RhaenysBee Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I had an emo phase too, but no eyeliner or hair dye because “smart” girls don’t wear makeup or color their hair... My smartness lasted till the end of high school... was it worth it to not let me wear makeup? I think not. Oh well. So I miraculously got through this day without a migraine and it was actually good. I am happy that it’s over. I’m now on the train, if things go well, I’ll be home by 10pm. And the upper-second class of this train is actually alright. I still wish I had time to get that extra ticket to make your second class ticket first class, but it was either that or dinner and I opted for not starving. (And I wish my firm was willing to pay the extra two euros a first class ticket would cost but oh well, I’m sure they would go bankrupt if they did) So all in all this day was good. A little awkward here and there, but overall okay. I am happy though that I took the train instead of my colleague’s car, I don’t want to spend 3 hours talking to someone I met 24 hours ago (just introvert problems). Plus, like this I could meet up for a coffee with a high school friend of mine, which is nice because we only meet every couple years. I don’t know why I shared all this, feel free to ignore.

I tended to just love whatever the BF of the moment was into. In a way, having no opinion at all accidentally broadened my horizons I don't even play guitar, but I would so learn if I have a shiny red one.
