I'm just getting ready to go to bed. I'm up late. No presents 'til sunrise.
This might seem pretty gay, but I wanted to repost my LiveJournal entry for today here, since it applies to pretty much all of you guys as well.
[quote]I realized I hadn't been building up to Christmas here in my LJ like I've done in the past. I thought that I should definitely post on Christmas Eve/Day, and began to think if there was kind of a heart-felt Christmas message I could give, like I've tried to do in previous years.
I tried to think about what it is I love about the season. It's not just "oh boy, I get presents." It's that exchange of gifts that I think is special. A day taken out of the year just to do something wonderful for someone, and in return everyone does the same for you. I think that's beautiful. Wouldn't it be grand if life was like that all the time? I always enjoy the tension-filled month in which I choose a gift for each person with thought and with care, and on December 25th, I get to see the joy it brings them as they tear off the wrappings. Sometimes I can't help myself, and I end up spending much more than I really should've on that perfect gift. Some people say it's all about materialism, but who cares? If all the other things in life are fulfilled, those precious gifts really do grant happiness, even if in reality, they're all just things.
But it occurred to me that while I'm a very Christmasy guy, and that loving that exchange is easy for me to do, lots of people, perhaps some of you, don't feel that same excitement about the season. To some, it all just seems bland and superficial. You may even be repulsed by it - the commercialism, the rush, the crappy music that they play too much, et cetera (I can sympathize with you for those things). Maybe you don't have a huge family like mine to share Christmas with, maybe you never end up getting really nice things so you can't get too excited, or maybe you just think it's all bull****. If that's the case for you guys or for anyone else, I apologize deeply because you're absolutely right to be glum around the holidays. The reasons I have for loving Christmas - the selflessness, the love, the giving - aren't there for you.
If you're in that unfortunate position, there's not a lot I can do, I'm afraid, to share with you what Christmas means to me. All I can say is this... although this was pretty much true beforehand, I'd like to make it clear that if any of you are ever in real need, I will be there for you. Whether that means something as little as being someone to talk to after a bad day, or as much as opening up my home to you when you have no where else to go, you can call on me when you're in trouble. I will give what little money and resources I have to bail you out. It sounds kind of corny to say like this, and I even feel pretty goofy typing it out. Maybe none of you guys, my few close friends, will ever need help such as this and it'll just be remembered as that one Christmas when I gave out that corny message... but if you're ever in dire need, don't forget that I'm there to pull you back from the edge of the abyss. Yeah, even you, Hillary. Don't think your Jewy ways are getting you out of this Christmas gift. You can't return this one, none of you. I threw away the receipt. You're stuck with it for life.
That's what Christmas means to me. Selflessness... love... bringing joy to your fellow man... peace on Earth and mercy mild... things the whole world loves to talk about and never actually follows through with. It's not a religious holiday for me. It's a way of life, and I try to live it every day.
Oh Night Divine.
Yeah, I know, gay gay gay, corny corny corny. Your Christmas present to me is to tolerate my sentimental crap.

Man, that was one good christmas. We ended up opening gifts around 5 PM on the 25th cause we all slept it. Then we just lounged about until I went to the movies. Then yesterday I spent the whole day with all of my relatives which is always nice. So over all, **** good christmas. Oh, except I lost one of my cats. Not sure if she's coming back.
Got a new moniter. the jump from 17" to 22" widescreen is insane.
My sister got a big new TV for Christmas from her boyfriend, so her old TV was donated to my room to replace one of my smaller TVs. Sweet deal.
Hey, it's a leap year this year. TOO COOL
what's so special about that?
Well... I have to wait an extra day for my birthday. So maybe not so much.
my stepmom's birthday is on leap year day. So technically she's only, like, twelve. neat
is that loli?
Oh my G[COLOR="black"]o[/COLOR]d, a technicality that allows me to legally sleep with lolis!
Merry christmas.
This was the best Christmas ever.
I just got back from my parent's house, where I spent Christmas Eve/Day.
WHAT I GOT:
Crock pot
Coffee
Waffle iron
Tea kettle
/christmas
A coat
Guitar strings
Mousepad w/ built in calculator lol
/birthday WHERE THE **** IS MY THREAD *****ES nah it's kind of late now
I think the most importANT question you should be asking yourself is if any of these devices can be used to smoke a bowl.
perhaps you can dmoke a bowl with that tea ketytle pf yours.
Yeah, the tea kettle would be best suited for bowl smoking.
in b4 YOUR CHRISTMAS GIFTS ARE TEARING THIS FAMILY APART
you can dissolve thc into heated milk, and then mix that with tea, but ive been told it tastes disgusting. I found this out when I was looking into ways to brew my green. never ended up doing it though (apparently it makes the milk taste scalded and burned, like, SUPER bad).
*******, everyone on VGC is crunk tonight. SHAME X HAD TO WORK A 11 HOUR SHIFT HUH
i have to work from 1130pm tonight until 1130am tomorow! MERRY ****ING XMAS TO ME.
What does your work involve?
Nothing, really. I sit around and do nothing.
Probably the most active thing I'll have to do is roving fire watch, which consists on trying to open every door in the school building to make sure that they're locked. I might get stuck on a phone watch, which means that I'd answer the phone, record any incoming offbase calls, and take the hourly logs (BEQ quarterdeck, FN/PO *name*, reporting all conditions normal" "Power school quarterdeck, FN Miller, reporting all conditions normal aye").
Pretty boring. Mainly you sit around and bull**** for a few hours. Hopefully the watch supervisor can set the schedule up so that we're not all on 12 hour shifts, but I'm nto holding out any hope of that.
...you heat the milk up in a pot, then when its simmering you chuck in the herb. cool it, add to tea, enjoy.
so add tea to milk? what difference would that make
all the difference. You don't burn the milk that way. My mom used to live in England and was hardcore about her tea like everyone else there. And that's one main trick to get the best taste.
It'd be pretty funny if this whole time the internet community of stoners who like weed in their tea never realized that. YEAH ITS GOOD BUT IT ALWAYS TASTES BURNT LOL MUST BE THE DROOGZ
they're stoners. what do you expect?
Accurate self-evaluation and a strong will to better themselves and the world around them.
ok, i demand a step by step set of instruction for makng milk not suck *** in tea
check here: [url]www.google.com[/url]
cause no one else here gives a ****.
yes, but its WEED tea, and as previously discussed, thc isnt water soluable. it needs the fat in the milk to properly dissolve out of the leaves, hence boiling the weed in the milk
I think I'm going to try this now. I've never been a fan of tea, so maybe this will change my mind.
CAN'T BE ANY WORSE THAN CHEEZ WIZZ PEANUT BUTTER JAM huh guys?
i threw up just reading that
Will you faggots stop talking about tea?
I don't even drink tea, that's the super thing.
I hate tea.
And coffee.
When I didn't have a job or have to go to school, I'd get up around noon and sit with a cup of coffee while browsing VGC. Good times, good times.
Me too!
that was a good ninja. hahaha vamp was unemployed
fuuuuuuuck. Didn't even see it
So I'm about to attend one of the few "LET'S GET DRUNK AND ACT LIKE IDIOTS" parties I've been to in my life in about 20 minutes. I was also told there would be pizza, Smash Bros, Guitar Hero, and hookah. Things are looking up.
What the fuck are you guys going to do tonight?!
my night was over ages ago. just got lone crunked and done my usual nerd ****.
go to bed, the x.
kool, kewl
Oh, and I'll be sure to stock up on some BOOOOOOOOOOOOONES FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARM as well
get back to work, the ant
boonsfarm sounds pretty good actually.
though I don't know what's planned for tonight. I'm up for whatever! even though I have work at noon the next day...maybe a little bit of whatever.
dude just get wasted.
**** YOU AND YOUR NEW YEAR
'07 4lyfe*
*lyfe= approx. 1.5 hours
HAPPY NEW YEAR
WOOOOO WEST COAST PST YEAH
was at a friends party. had a smirnoff. woo.
ho ho ho, always the life of the party.
I watched parts of like 5 movies revolving around Planet of the Apes. just the sexy parts
ended up going back to said party and being amused by the drunkards. and I'm finally home.
and planet of the apes is an amazing movie series.
Hey, I was also watching Planet of the Apes last night. Huh.
Happy New Years everyone.
I was on watch... again! LOL!
So, about that tea thing. I asked my mom how you boil milk without it changing the taste and she's all "drr you boil it slowly." So put your **** in the milk, stick the burner on around medium and let it slowly come to a boil.
THAT should work.
too bad i didnt find this out a long time ago. since, ya know. im clean now.
but man, im lulin imagining that conversation.
"hey mom, how do you boil milk without making it taste bad?"
"Why do you need to know?"
"so i can make weed tea!"
"oh well in that cas-WAIT WHAT?"
lulz
I cook a lot so I just said I was wondering how to keep the taste of milk when boiling it. EASY
lol fag
fag? if anything it nets you more women.
I can cook if I have instructions. And if I don't forget that I had something in the oven.
I'll give you something in the oven if you know what I mean.
i don't remember what happened on new years
and i thoroughly blame my friends
**** win
Owch
Valentine's is the next occasion, by the way. Not Easter.
Martin Luther doesn't count.
n[COLOR="Lime"]i[/COLOR]gger holiday.
I'm gonna wear a shirt on that day that says "I shot MLK"
very courageous. black people like to think they've come a long way, but wearing that shirt... man, you'll get your *** beat.
at least it'll bring them down a peg.
they need it
Post it on youtube plz.
i have nothing to spend valentine's day with
what do i do
note: kill youself is the only answer i'll accept
STALOLIN DON'T DO IT!
and honestly, I don't think I'll even care this year.
Serious note: I saw a documentary on white supremacy on TV the other day, and the dude was wearing a shirt that said "I shot Martin Luther King."
glad to be alone. don't need to spend any money, don't need to dress up and go out, don't need to impress anyone... much better.
holla
I have a gf, and even I don't celebrate it. I bought her a nice picture frame and other **** last year, and she was all like 'uhhhhh yeah i didnt bother'.
WELL FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU
such a loving relationship :)
Isn't Groundhog's Day Feb 2nd? Is that good enough?
otherwise known as corrupt's birthday day?
Yeah, that's definitely enough to warrANT a holiday. It's my 21st birthday, at that!
It's all so clear now... Corrupt's the Groundhog... and vaginas are Groundhog holes.
Incorrect. He's the groundhog and men's as[COLOR="black"]sh[/COLOR]oles are the groundhog holes.
Same difference.
Heterosexual = Homosexual?
On an unrelated note, I don't get nigra day off. Which sort of upsets me. Because of this, I expect my boss to come parading through the office yelling "I HATE N[COLOR="black"]I[/COLOR]GGERS" at the top of his lungs to make up for it.
Just saw that thing the X said. Funny stuff. I would've repped you if I could have.
But I can't, so I won't.
[quote=Vampiro V. Empire;802349]didn't she buy you an xbawks?
You know, in retrospect, it kinda makes sense. She was probably saving all her money to buy me an xbawks.
DR. VAMP SAVES ANOTHER RELATIONSHIP
oh gawd when I saw the no in the title I thought of anime
**** ****ed me up, son
Wow, that's pretty ****ing disgusting of you.
On a similar note, I complained to my cable company about their On Demand being advertised to my city for almost a year but only have it activated less than a month ago. I demanded compensation for shoddy service and they gave me three other On Demand channels of my choosing to make up for it. And the anime one was one of my choices. Turns out there's a lot of good **** on there that I'll probably never check out.
"good" and "anime" aren't generally used together
you're going to have to explain yourself vamp
Does it have the English dub of Haruhi? It's weeeeeird.
You guys are just as bad as the weeaboo faggots you make fun of.
"ANIME IS THE GREATEST THING ALIVE AND JAPAN IS THE GREATEST NATION EVER"

ive seen a few that didnt suck. GTO, cowboy bebop, uh... akira, original GitS. thats all that i can think of at the moment that werent retarded or annoying.
OH, and gundam wing rocked back in the dizay.
Yeah, sorry, buddy. But the majority is pretty trash and cliche. I'm watching some Death Note now and I'm really liking that and there's a few other notable animes, but **** sucks in general, just like everything else on this planet.
Generalizations just tend to tick me off, in any realm.
Though I'm personally enthralled by Priest once again, though that's a manga, not an anime. And it's not written by a japanese guy (nor drawn).
I told you to watch Death Note but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
no you didn't
plus, I didn't wan to download them. easier to just watch it on tv
youtube/any other streaming video site get.
man, you've said a lot of dumb stuff today.
then the quality is mega ****. I'd rather just watch them on tv at my leisure.
xbox.
wii.
lol.
idk.
Desu Noto on TV... The English version?
Yes. There's nothing wrong with the English dub, you [COLOR="black"]fu[/COLOR]cking queers.
i love it when fags get uppity about english translations. OMG ITS NOT SUPER KAWAII NIPPON SPEAK IT MUST BE INFERIOR

Looks fine, actually. I figured the English version sounds like ****.
I preferred the japanese. but I'm fine with the english dub

[QUOTE=S
[quote=Lord of Spam;802730]x: I hate the spanish language with an all burning passion.
I felt that there wasn't any other language Pan's Labyrinth could've been spoken in while still carrying the same effect.
It didn't sound like regular spanish to me at all since they used a lot of words I've never heard and spoke in a completely different way than the gAnGsTa*~*mExIcAnS I know of.
The centaur thing couldn't speak english. You don't find too many of those buggers grazing around, you know.
It was made in Spain, for a start. Imagine trying to watch a film as intense as Pan's Labyrinth, but with an English voice track dubbed over. You'd lose the delivery of lines, the tone...
Anyone seen this? It's got the same director, and I've wanted to see it since I saw the trailer right before Pan's Labyrinth played.
dude
[quote=Lord of Spam;802757]They have these things called "actors" over here. These people can read lines as if they were the ones originally delivering them! Its amazing, but true!
Yeah, but no matter how good they are, it would still be impossible to get the dubbing right. Detracting from the movie as a result.
OMG THE LIPS DONT PERFECTLY MATCH UP FOR THE MOVIE ABOUT FAERIES AND WHATNOT
:P
LoS: You obviously have no idea about the effect produced by different languages. Films in other languages carry a different tone, which aren't necessarily carried over. Doing a movie like that in English would botch the living crap out of it, and recasting the actors would be stupid as well. It's a tale that needed to be told in an older and more lyrical language than English, and Spanish, I feel, was a perfect choice, being close to Latin as it is.
Slade: Spanish is a very different language than the backwater dialect that the Mexicans use which is based off theirs.
On a final note, it's a ****ing SATYR, not a centaur. Or a "fauna" in Spanish. It's hard to have an argument about what country a mythical creature was created in if you're not naming the correct creature.

I have watched films in french, you know, the most subtle and context sensitive language EVAR and then watched them in english and not been bothered.
In French class we watched the Incredibles in French, and I didn't understand why they had to re-dub Bomb Voyage's lines.
I knew what it was. I was just trying to make a funny.
Spoilers: Dubbed movies are ****. Plain and simple. A film made in its native language adds a greater effect and weight to the movie. Simple. Whether you prefer it in English or just don't even notice it doesn't really matter. Most people do and most dubs are abysmal.
I mean, there's a reason directors choose to keep a certain language intact in their films, especially when many are more than capable of using english actors.
I would agree that dubs of films often loose things in translation; it seems that the subtle things that create a certain mood, or reveal true feelings do not translate well. But I think the main reason dubs often suffer is that the translation is always second-rate. It always seems like minimal effort is put into it, and in already low budget productions, like many anime series are, it's very obvious.
Indeed. Not to mention the voices they choose are often ear-bleedingly bad. There's usually no effort put into it all and it shows.
Yeah, the only thing that makes me want to learn some Japanese is the amount of Japanese media I take in on a regular basis (games, anime, et cetera).

yeah, i hate that.

OH, I was going through my work computer and looking at all our contacts, and there's this dude named G. Purvis. I was like "X's dad?"
definite sign you've spent too much time on vgc.
though once I checked someone into the hotel who lives on the same street as corrupt. I thought that was pretty cool.
yeah, it was weird because I never think of that stuff irl. I just chalked it up to the fact that the name is so rare.
but your explanation is likely correct
**** crap **** cock ****** *****!
Hey, pal.

Man, I remember everyone's last name!
well, smith, katzman and purvis. don't think anyone else used their last name. except for pit. but that was some spic name that I'll never remember. Rodriguez or some ****. **** that kid. and maybe phant, but same thing. **** that kid too
Who's Smith?
Ant
:)
Anthony Smith.
That must be creepy to read.
eh, kinda. James Purvis. right?
Jamie Purvis.
Or is it James Purvis?
No, Jamie. James sounds stupid. You can't have a first name end with an S AND a last name that ends in an S.
Jamie Purvis.
man, totally ninja'd. Can't believe it's actually James. Jeez, wow. What were your parents thinking. James is good name, just not with that last name.
I get called James, Jamie, Jim or Purvis depending on who you talk to. Mostly Jamie.
I'd call you James. Jamie sounds like it'd be some stupid fat goth girls name.
Man, all this use of my real name is going to give away my secret identity on VGC. fuuuuck
Like some faggot friend of yours can't tell it's you. In one second they'd be like "yep, that's him, that's purvis"
HOW DID YOU KNOW MY FRIENDS CALL ME PURVIS AAAAAAAARGH
I bet you're actually someone from RL guising as a grim Canadian fag.
Yeah, can't be an internet badass/superhero anymore now can ya? Suck on that.
lol, purvis has friends? UNLIKELY!
no one in scotland is called ron.
NICE TRY THOUGH HAMISH
This isn't Hamish. Try harder. THIIIIIIINK
Man, I know someone named Hamilton. Weirdest name ever. Little fatty too just like you'd expect from the name.
Yeah, it really is one of those names.
Doesn't help everyone calls him Hammy. I also have someone on my Xbox friends list with the same name now that I think of it. Doesn't sound fat... but his friends also use the same nickname. It was pretty weird finding that out. Small world.
