It's beautiful.

Wooooow!!! Duuudes!! Amazing!
XD
It's so funny. I'm using my Chinese friend's laptop, and it has... interesting features.
If I press shift+c some weird tool will pop up.
If I press shift alone, it toggles whether I want to type in english or chinese (this causes me so much frustration, you can't begin to imagine).
If I press shift+x - well for a long time I didn't know what it did, all I knew was that the capital x wouldn't show up... And now, all of a sudden the computer starts reading out some Tournament-judging things that I had just edited, with this bloody freaky Stephen Hawking voice! XD Imagine Stephen Hawking reading out "the character traits should be" laadelaadelaa etc... XD
Hilarious, nearly fell off my seat.

Have you ever truly appreciated the fact that if you eat fast enough, you can actually eat anything.

Having said that... *tries to find the knife that was on the plate two seconds ago*

Things that make me feel old:
-Goths
When I was young (about 5 years ago) there was no such thing as goths. People who dressed like that or listened to music like that were called either satanists, punks or heavymetal-dudes, depending on what their agenda was. They were all alright. Satanists dressed black and believed that they are a god to themselves (which is a cool idea, to not be an atheist per se), punks dressed black and had obscure hair-colours and were politically left-wing. Heavyheads wore leather and long hair and listened to heavymetal music and gathered in their basements to play D&D and drink cheap booze.
Now I still have not figured out the goth agenda. I can read many gothy people's description explaining how people who just listen to the music and wear the clothes and makeup are posers, that they're not goth inside. One went on and said goth means different things to different people.... Just come on and spill the big secret already! What does it mean then to be goth?!

-Cartoons
Especially the ones that aired when I was a kid. So here I can be, sitting watching something like TNMT and I can remember what is going to happen! :O And the fact that I know all the lines to the Disney-movies that were released on video around the 90s is kind of a bummer as well at times.

They are the angryalien-bunnies on stage! (to be honest, RSC was around 20 years ago already)

Yesterday I was having a read of someone's rant against another person and a thing that had offended the writer was the way the other person had used her character in a yaoi-painting. My two cents for this:
Yaoi is no more art than hentai is. It is not 'artistic nudity', it's not even 'sexual art' it is down right pornographic. Any hentai image would be removed from any elfhouse without question (other, non-manga sexual drawings also), but then what happens with ths yaoi-stuff? It wins Christmas art competition! And to borrow Silvie's word, it's because people are so heterophobic that now separate rules must be applied to homosexual things? People are afraid to tell that gay-pornographic drawings aren't art because they would be branded as homophobes. I would also be offended if someone used my character in a setting like that.

Another thing that irks me is snooze in alarm clocks. I never use it, I don't see the point. I know when I want to wake up so I set my alarm at that time. But the people I have to share my sleeping-space with me are not so. They will put the alarm at 9, let it ring (here's where I wake up), turn it on snooze. In 6-10 minutes it rings again. They turn it on snooze again until it is the time when they know they have to wake up. Now me, I know I need to wake up at 10, but my fellow sleeper makes me wake up an hour early and　I will not go back to sleep, or even if I did manage, I would only be woken again with the next snooze and again had to struggle to sleep again. Why can't they just put the alarm to wake them when they need to wake up? Or at the first alarm change the time to the final time when they need to wake up, so they wouldn't have to press snooze three four times? Or just tell me when they need to wake up, and I'd take care they will... <.< And extra cringe on the snooze comes from mobile phone alarms. The alarm is some ridiculous ringtone and the newer contraptions even vibrate and flash lights and what-not, and when that happens every 10 minutes full one hour before you need to wake up... I'd find that a pretty effective torture method.

Ever had a moment of clarity where you truly discovered your own naivety?
Well I had one today - nothing embarrassing, but I stopped me on my tracks to wonder how could I ever have been so blue-eyed.
There's this nice Finnish song I've been listening to lately, I'll roughly translate the lyrics:
When Sarah turned 8, it happened that only one guest came when 25 were invited. Oh how it hurt the heart, what should I do? And the only guest was Tuija from next door, and everyone said she is a liar, there she stood, why won't she leave? But she walked over and said "you shouldn't be sad, lets play princesses. And we'll become eternal friends, just like Anna and Diana. You mustn't be sad, lets go swing in the park. And the world will become more beautiful, because it is ours." Now Tuija is only seven, but she has learned, that you need to work hard if you want to be happy in this life. For if you don't get yourself a fried, you'll end up alone. So Tuija called Sarah's guest and said "what a sad day this is, Sarah is ill and yes, it's contagious, don't come after all."
Now for a really long time I didn't know that it means that Tuija cancelled everybody elses invitation so she could become friends with Sarah. I just thought no one showed up and Tuija and Sarah made a plan to save Sarah's face by telling them that she was sick and then they had fun in the park. And when I realised that the liar-part about Tuija is actually true, and that's what she does before Sarah's party... Well I just thought I had been very silly.

I really hate that girl-gets-raped-girl-gets-pregnant-girl-kills-herself -story that's in all the lame bios. Why doesn't she go to the police in that story? What the fucking kind of thing is this story trying to teach or prove? "Oh yeah rape is bad"? No shit Sherlock. It's pointless in its current form, it should have some kind of point, other than "put this in your bio if you think this shouldn't happen." It should educate girls what to do if you get raped. Because apparently not all girls seem to know (at least the girl in the story didn't).

1. Don't go home to have a shower or change clothes: go straigh to the police. The bastard's DNA-callcard is all over you -- the police can get the information they need to bust that loser's ass.
2. Go to the nurse/hospital to get a "morning after" -pill. It's tiny so any pill-swallowing-phobic can do it and it affects when you take it within 72 hours.
3. Tell people about it. Either some helping hotline or your best friends or family -- anyone you can trust. Might be hard but you have to. Knowledge is power and if you share your view of what happened, your side will be more powerful. The rapist will spread his view for sure, some lie where he finally scored with you or what ever -- fight back. Let your friends fight for you if you can't face his accusations and lies.

Sorry for all the cursing, it's just frustrated when people don't think.
