Hahahahaha! If you go to Google Image Search and type in "huge tool" this is the first picture that comes up.



And if you don't know who that is... well you obviously won't get it, but I know a few of you are laughing your butts off.

so last night at work i organized the manga, you know, the japanese comic books. THAT was interesting. boys over flowers or zatch bell, anyone?

[Tybre]

I'm quite partial to Vagabond myself. Read a lot of manga really, but Vagabond is easily my favorite series. Serious series. Sgt Frog is ing hilarious, and wins by leagues for best comedy manga in my book. And if you really wanted I could geek out and list my favorite and least favorite of every demographic, but I'm going to resist that urge.

Lashings of apologies.

It's funny how dreams can affect how you feel when you wake up. Dreaming about people from my childhood sure made me sad when i woke up.

That dream made me think about my life when i was younger/in my teens & i would defintely do 80-90% of the things i did differently.

[Tybre]

I would do nothing differently, even if you only sent me back one second. Change one thing, and the me I am now is no more. I may be a very similar person, but I am not me, and I quite like me. Sure, me is not perfect, but me is good, I think. But still, if change things you wish, then change things you wish. It is quite rightly not human capacity to do so. We must strive to love the me we are, not the me we could have become or might become. Don't get hung up on past nor future, deal only with what is on your table at this hour. But then, I suppose this are just the words of a coward. It is a good way of thinking, I think, but then I am the one thinking it, and for good reason, I think, but it is that same reason which no doubt makes me also a coward to some. And perhaps I am. Better to be a happy coward than a solemn hero.

[Cruiserweight]

Some of the things i've done/had done to me/experienced has put me in a few situations that i'm stuck with now.(Mostly my way of living & my health)So i'd change all of them for the better.

My favorite bookstore is closing.

My favorite bookstore is closing.

Ouch. But on the bright side, everything will probably be cheap cheap cheap for a brief while before they close. I say go and buy as many books as you can! But this is the man with a veritable library speaking.

The manager said she's not sure how they (Waldenbooks) work a closing. She's sure there'll be a sale, but she's not sure when. Obviously before January, since that's when they close.

I keep telling myself I need to sleep, been meaning to for two hours now, but I can't stop listening to the carol of the bells for some reason. Damned Christmas music getting in my head in November and keeping me up all night. Doesn't my brain know it's a month ahead of schedule? Honestly, you'd think Wal-Mart was running my brain...

Of course! It all makes sense now. Quickly, arm yourselves before they get to you too!

Spoiler

ME: What now?
FLAPJACKS: Did you see this? Some crazy guy put together a replica of a vintage first class airplane cabin in his garage.
ME: Because he’s crazy?
FLAPJACKS: You just spent actual money on old board games from the 1960s like, last week.
ME: You can play those.
FLAPJACKS: And he can play with his fake plane. I bet he roleplays out scenes from Mad Men. Like, he pretends he’s the steward who gets Don Draper an Old Fashioned while Don Draper picks up the woman in the seat next to him, and then he waves goodbye as they leave the plane to go have sex in a hotel.
ME: He doesn’t want to be Don Draper?
FLAPJACKS: I think you overestimate the ambition of this guy. He didn’t recreate a mini Playboy Mansion. He recreated an airplane cabin.
ME: What would you have recreated?
FLAPJACKS: You know that bit in the James Bond movie where the villain tries to shoot a laser at James Bond’s crotch? That.
ME: Would you play pretend that you are James Bond or Goldfinger?
FLAPJACKS: It wasn’t Goldfinger. It was Jaws.
ME: It wasn’t Jaws. Jaws fought Roger Moore. Sean Connery was the Bond who nearly got crotch-lasered.
FLAPJACKS: Look, I know it was Jaws. I distinctly remembering him speaking in his English accent that he expected Mr. Bond to die.
ME: Jaws wasn’t English! He was a guy with a mouth full of metal! He wouldn’t have spoken in crisp English tones. He would have mumbled something vaguely metallic.
FLAPJACKS: I bet if you check Wikipedia, you will see that I have already loaded up the page on your computer and it will say that it was Jaws.
(pause)
ME: This is a Post-It, with “Jaws” written on it in your handwriting, stuck on my computer monitor and covering up the picture of Goldfinger menacing James Bond.
FLAPJACKS: I couldn’t figure out how to edit Wikipedia properly.
ME: So will you concede that Jaws did not menace James Bond with the laser?
FLAPJACKS: No.
ME: I actually own Goldfinger on DVD.
FLAPJACKS: You could have counterfeited that.
ME: With the young Sean Connery ten years before I was born.
FLAPJACKS: Or a very good imitator!
ME: …anyway, so that’s what you want to be? The guy torturing James Bond, be it Jaws – who it wasn’t – or someone else?
FLAPJACKS: Heck no.
ME: So you want to be James Bond. That’s pretty common.
FLAPJACKS: That’s far too common for the likes of me.
ME: …who have you inserted into this scenario who was not there previously? And before you start, don’t say “myself as a secret agent.”
FLAPJACKS: Of course not. That would be lame.
ME: So who is it?
FLAPJACKS: Funny you should say that.
ME: What do you – oh god, you want to set up this scenario so you can play Doctor Who rescuing James Bond.
FLAPJACKS: Yes! And then they go off on adventures together.
ME: That’s awful.
FLAPJACKS: I take it that you don’t want to play James Bond in this.
ME: Excuse me. If I was going to take part in this horrible exercise – which of course I never would – you had better damn believe that I would be Doctor Who. He has a time-traveling police box. All James Bond has is a watch with spy doohickeys, all of which can be disabled by Doctor Who’s sonic screwdriver.
FLAPJACKS: But I found this tuxedo in your size and everything.
ME: No.
FLAPJACKS: What if I told you that this offer also comes with a 1961 Aston Martin?
ME: Does it?
FLAPJACKS: Not really?
ME: Still a no, then.

I just sang Tybre's post along with the Carol of the Bells.

The spoilered one or the Wal-Mart one? Either way it's probably hilarious. Excuse me while I go do that.

Either, and if the sentences didn't fit, I made them fit.

[Gabe Vieira]

Yeah, Tybre, take two of these...



... and call me in the morning. That should take care for your insanity.

Or make it worse.

After 2G1C, nyanroll, and a rash of vids of anime and video games being looped like that to make the Kirby theme round last Thanksgiving, I can't help but find it 90% trite. The remaining 10% being LMGFDAOHTYCPI.

Waiting for Tybre to tell me his experience with the Carol of the Bells.

[Tybre]

Long spoilered post doesn't work as well. Part of the problem though is I was using the Trans-Siberian Orchestra version. Faster. Awesomer.

There you have it then. Stay away from the original.
Use the butchered ones.
Just to let you know, ooops, I did it again.
Great the second time around too although my neighbour nearly called the police.

[Tybre]

And once again The Carol of the Bells is in my head as I am preparing to sleep. There's probably something immensely wrong there...but it's a nice way to end the evening.
