"It is confirmed. You have until Monday to hand in the project."

*tapdances*
Skipping class.
Lalalala.
Whee!

I am "allowed" two absences per term.
Which to me means...
I feel obligated to make sure I miss those two classes.
Therefore, since this is a work period...
Laziness for me!
After an Online Ruckus, Microsoft Opens MSN Site to All

(NY Times article, so you have to do that annoying signing-in BS... blah!)

"Microsoft is trying to make the Web into its own private property."

Yes. Yes they are.
See, that's what a website IS.
It's your own private property.

If I didn't want to allow Netscape users into my website,
too fucking bad.
I don't have to.
So there.
You do not have a right to look at my website.

You can launch public outcry all you like.
(Most of) the Internet is not public property.

This is the same argument I have about smoking in restaurants.
There is nothing written that says you have the right to fine dining.
Resaraunts are private establishments, owned by somebody.
If you ask me, they should have the right to tell people what they can and cannot do inside their doors...
If you don't like smoke,
boo hoo.
Boo fucking hoo.
Go somewhere else.
Or don't go anywhere at all.
As I said.
Nobody owes you smoke-free meals.
It might be a profitable service to provide it for you but
If somebody doesn't want to do that
Oh go cry me a river!

And I don't smoke.
I hate the smell of smoke.
I wouldn't go to a restaurant that smelled like smoke all the time.
If I had a restaurant, there would be no smoking allowed.
But that'd be because I own the place, and I don't like it.
See, these are the kind of rules you can make up when you own something.
Just because you own it.
Just because you feel like it.
Whee.

Back to MSN.
Anticompetitive gesture?
"Microsoft has built a site that works best with their browser."
Duh.
Hello?
Sounds like a logical thing to want to do to me.
Gonna cry about it?
Huh?
Gonna cry?
Download Internet Explorer and like it,
bitch.

The right to free speech.
The right to bear arms
The right to access the Microsoft Network?

I have not heard of this part of the U.S. Constitution.
But then again,
that country is messed up.
And apparently full of whiners.

Let's kick them in the head.
Yes.
All of them.
A good booting for all.

P.S.

The whole concept of this story, well...

You're complaining cause you can't get into MSN?
Why the hell do you want to do that in the first place?

I'd be like...
GOOD!

Of course, I sometimes am a cam chick with no nose:



But anyway.

Can't think of anything to say.

*Tries to write e-mail to Jesse for the 42nd time*

No.

I sure can't.

But I WILL!

Er.

Yes.

But I definitely see how it seems like I'm about to do something "fucking insane."

I guess I'm insane.

Haha!

The essay is done!

And with minutes to spare.
Entire minutes!

Gosh, I'm so glad I got my work done early for once.
Not even goodnight?
Do you LIKE to make me pout?

*sigh*

You make me afraid to talk to you.
Guess the reason for the silence all week.
Guess why I'm saying this to no one in particular now, instead of you.
Yikes.

Playing with the Daypop Top 40 List again (what is the point of reading any other blog, really, when all the links are the same, anywhere you go?) and blah.

Felt the need to link to one of the links.

I guess that must be why it's in the top 40. Huh.

There is a test (and half of the top 40 always seem to be tests...) that allows you to find out what the animal in you is.

I'm a bat, apparently.

Oh, how goth of me.

How typical.

*gag*

so

apparently a number of people have gotten to my website searching for information on

X10's AMAZING XCam2

(and i'm pretty much ensuring more of the same by posting this, eh)

okay

why

why does anyone need to SEARCH for X10

X10 finds YOU

surf the internet for five minutes
there it is, like magic.
I'm crushing your head, T'Pol.

I am CRUSHING your head.

"something im noticing is you know just what to say when im stressed to magnify the situation..."

eek
yes
my conversational skills
are envied by all
"Definately worth a look, especially if you've just taken a liberal dose of an illegal narcotic."

a description of questionable accuracy
(if only because i don't use a lot of illegal narcotics
alTHOUGh, i'm on some pretty nice legal ones right now
mmm, tylenol with codeine
and caffeine
wait
okay so THAT's why i'm not sleepy...
at 5:45 am...)

um
parentheses shall be my downfall.

um
continuing...
written by one chris
on one blog called
cobwebs

kept seeing it in my refer logs
and thinking
how interesting
all these people coming from this one site
and twiddling my thumbs

(does anyone actually do that?)

never bothered to... say...
really read it or anything
well

actually there are an awful lot of words there
but i looked at the pictures
those were some pictures alright

apparently this
"chris"
lives on floor 11
or so i gather

which is interesting

for all i know, he could be directly below me
as this is floor
1, 2, 3
4, 5, 6
7, 8, 9
10, 11, 12
ladybugs came
to the ladybug's picnic

hm

getting drunk alone?
and playing computer risk?

less pathetic than
NOT getting drunk alone
and NOT playing computer risk

damn
i miss computer risk
it's fun to kick the computer's ass
take that lousy compoooter
think you're so smrt?
ha!
you CTRL the electronic dice
and you STILL can't win

p.s.

ROOM SERVICE
NOW

those were two completely
UNRELATED
ideas

please do not make me a
spam sandwich

but do make me a sandwich
please
so hungry

*poof*

ICQ and AIM have two states known as

Online
and
Offline

MSN has

Online
and
Not online

Which is probably not as interesting as I think, but.
I think it's interesting.

No Bin Laden masks? Outrage.
Most detestable spelling error ever: conceded.

It's conceited, dammit!
CONCEITED.

Conceded is a word, yes.
But not the one you're trying to use.

Idiots.

Second most detestable spelling error ever: noone.

And another, while not technically a spelling error: "your hot asl"

There are several things wrong with the preceding.

A Taste of Big Brother in U.S.
CBC News: Ladybug boom follows aphid infestation

I knew there was an explanation... I should have been able to figure that out... where is my logic?
BBC News - US launches 'anti-terror' satellite "Before 1996 the [US National Reconnaissance Office] did not publicly disclose the launches of its satellites."

I wonder why. Do you like the idea of satellites in the sky that can pick out object 10 cm across on the ground, monitor conversations, see with infared... I like to think that most people don't but... Of course, NOW it's entirely acceptable. Guh.

Ganymede.

Ganymede.

This story, i just find bizarre.

Yet again, the universe has proven that I've been given more than my fair share of the world's luck supply. Woke up already an hour late for class (for no particular reason, I mean, I got over 15 hours of sleep last night), and found that it was cancelled. Probably just for me... They were all so distraught that I wasn't there that they packed up and left. Yeah, I wish. Of course, it took me a while to find out that the class was cancelled and not just moved to a different location, despite the signs on the doors (hey, I'd been awake only 10 minutes, okay?). Somebody eventually had to tell me. Wow, don't I feel stupid. Wheee. I'm in the computer lab upstairs in the Image Arts building because... too lazy to walk allll the way back, half a block to res.

Something I've noticed while I've been sitting here typing...
Looking at a non-flat computer screen...
Is hella weird.
Haven't used a computer with one of these for...
who even knows.

I'm going home now.
Project to work on.
Other project to buy
"black adhesive film"
for.
Ack. And must purchase a zip disk for Production class.
Don't let me forget. Okay?
Goodbye.
