Awesome!, for things that are totally awesome

Pretty much late Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Currently, they have Bleach, Deadman Wonderland, Casshern Sins, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd GIG, and Cowboy Bebop on...

Wireless keyboards. Now I can type stuff when I'm in the other room or lying down in bed!

Why?

I imagine it's actually to remove some of the wire clutter from your desk, and give you more freedom if your deskspace is limited.

WHY?! Are you mad?!

You're just afraid of change. You'll never understand the young people.

I think I'm younger than you.

Oh. Then you'll understand the wireless keyboard when you're older.

Sounds legit.

You know those cadburry eggs they sell at easter? They sell them on Halloween now. Also Halloween starts in August.

The day after Halloween just got considerably more awsome.

Going grocery shopping and riding the train is a lot more fun when you're dressed as a pirate. Waaaaaay more people want to talk to you than if you wear normal cloths and all of their comments were pretty positive. Of course way more is about 10 more than zero. It's a lot of fun, but you probably shouldn't do it more than once or twice a year.

What happens if you try that while going on a cruise?

Apparantly once when I was really young (so longer that I don't remember it anymore, I only know about it secondhand) I dressed up as a train conductor, and went around asking the passengers for their tickets and then checking them with a hole-punching thingie. Then the real conductors showed up and were all "oh, guess we can move on, this wagon has already been taken care of".

I dunno if anyone would put up with a stunt like that now I'm no longer cute, though. Also I've kinda grown too serious to convincingly play around like that. I kind of miss being easily amused. The art I made as a child was no better than the art I can make now, but back then I just didn't care so much about the flaws. Of course, now I can entertain myself with intelligent things like philosophy and recreational mathematics and arguing about physics in webcomics, but still, I wish I weren't so bad at anything creative. It'd be nice to make my own art rather than criticizing someone else's for once.

...Kind of ironic that being a perfectionist who finds flaws in everything is a character flaw, isn't it?

Well I wasn't really pulling any stunts, just kind of minding my own business. I should note that I was in NY penn station (where there are a ton of people) for about an hour in the waiting area and most people didn't even seem to notice. Conversely almost half the people in the grocery store at least looked and I actually got more comments there than at the train station.

One kid asked me if I was a real pirate and I told him that I used to be till I took an arrow in the knee.

I guess it makes sense for people in a costume to be at a train station since people would just suppose you're travelling to a costume party in another city or something, while it's less obvious why anyone would wear a costume to a grocery store, so it attracts more attention.

Also, people in a grocery store are probably less stressed out and in a hurry than people at a train station.

College in about 4 days.

-29 until College.
