i paste excerpts from fine literature into the chatboxes on the cam sections of dirty websites. i feel like i'm doing some whore a service by bringing her some culture

[Xteven Xavier]

That is brilliant

[Donkeymog]

Whoa, pretty sci-fi. Apparently they're launching spacecraft as early as 2015.

my cat is downstairs walking around with a toy mouse in her mouth. i know this because she's calling out, crying for kittens that will never answer her.

This makes me sad.

[lazlo falconi]

The saddest lol I've ever had.

[Xteven Xavier]

it is pretty awful that, I am glad I don't have any "kittens" to miss.

but on the same hand I wish that I had someone to love and that loved me enough to even have a relationship


I'm forever alone.

[Xteven Xavier]

ah thanks for that, makes me feel so much better.

Since there's no programming/web design GDT, this go here.

A recent development in web design that drives me nuts is forever-scrolling front pages. An example. Just try to find the bottom of that page on a normal browser. Annoying.

[lazlo falconi]

Oh god. That's the worst. I hate that.

I'd just love a button on the keyboard for forums like these where you just push it and you can either go to the top of the page or the bottom, at least without spending tons of time scrolling down and murdering your Up Arrow Key/Down Arrow Key.

[lazlo falconi]

Look on your keyboard, and find the home and end keys. They'll do exactly that.

You don't know about the home and end keys? I find that really weird. That's like not knowing about the tab key.

[Xteven Xavier]

I think he was actually talking about Kyle's post.

[Donkeymog]

That makes much more sense.

[Xteven Xavier]

oh I'm also pretty sure Kyles post was serious, He's like 11, that or 12

[Donkeymog]

This is really messed up.



Something about this just terrifies me. Here's a quote from an article:

AKB48, a 90-strong pool of girls in their teens and early 20s, is a money-printing machine that makes much of the accessibility—and the implied availability—of its idols.

Fans have frequent opportunities to meet their favorites, who are rotated in and out of the public eye, according to popularity.

In return for their chance to grace television screens, subway adverts and the covers of Japan’s countless celebrity magazines, members of the collective must adhere to strict rules of behavior.

They are allowed to have “one-sided romantic feelings” for a boy but can never progress beyond hinting at their crush—and must never disabuse their legions of male fans that they might one day stand a chance with their fantasy woman.

AKB48’s management office said Minegishi will be demoted to a trainee team as punishment “for causing a nuisance to the fans,” with the demotion effective from Friday.

I think I need to go re-think my optimism about humanity.

[Monkeydog]

No wonder the birth rate in Japan is so low with things like that.

It is disgusting.
