TwoBitWriter's Tubular Tracts of Thought-Talking Random Banter #111

[Cristo Meyers]

Cristo, you're lucky you have such an awesome wife. Most would have poisoned you by now. =P

Bah! I've spent years making my body impervious to all known toxins!

*sips coffee*

That's a new one...*falls to floor*

[TwoBitWriter]

*walks in*

Hey Cristo, forgot to tell you not to drink the coffee, it was for my boss!

*looks down*

...oh...

[Coidzor]

...So that's where that line is from. I'd always wondered about that.

Horrifying, really. His... Wardrobe is hypnotic.

*Tasers TBW.*
Killing a Cristo is a misdemeanour.

[CutePoison]

Bah! I've spent years making my body impervious to all known toxins!

Awww... even cute poisons?

Awww...I didn't know you cared

...So that's where that line is from. I'd always wondered about that.

Horrifying, really. His... Wardrobe is hypnotic.

Get Smart? Hypnotic?

Awww... even cute poisons?

Trying to think of something to say that isn't going to come off either very creepy or just very stupid...

...for me, this is a difficult undertaking...

[Dragonrider]

I AM SO TICKED OFF AT MY FREAKING COMPUTER RIGHT NOW!

Okay, so I wiped the system because I kept getting the Blue Screen of Death. Before I did it, I backed up EVERYTHING on DVDs. I put them back in to check that they had all written properly, and they had.

So I reformatted my hard drive.

I loaded my documents, videos, and pictures off one disk.

Then I got the music disk.

I stuck it in.

A message popped up: FORMATTING DISK.



I HAD 4.2 FREAKING GIGABYTES OF MUSIC! AND IT'S GONE!

I know I have older backups, so at least I can recover SOME of it, but I BOUGHT SOME MUSIC THIS FALL THAT IS NOW GONE FOREVER!

[Cobra_Ikari]

*sips CutePoison*

...mmm...refreshingly tingly. Not unlike fugu.

...Cristo, who did you piss off in the legal system that it's such a minor crime to kill you?

[Dirk Kris]

'Course, I get random songs stuck in my head all the time. This morning I think it was something awful from that Taylor Swift girl...

Ooooh, was it that one about their song? I love that one.
...don't tell anyone...

Our song is a slammin' screen door
Sneakin' out late, tappin' on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk reeeeeeeal low
'Cuz it's late and your mama don't know.

Sorry, just makes me remember being a cutesy teenager and all the stupid adorable stuff like that I did.

*looks down*

...oh...

Does this mean you're on a break? Or has the boss forgotten his edicts so quickly?

Edit @DR: That is a tragedy. Awful.

[Cristo Meyers]

*sips CutePoison*

...Cristo, who did you piss off in the legal system that it's such a minor crime to kill you?

Long story. Not PG. Best left buried....

...just like that judge's daughter...

err...<_<

>_>

Moving swiftly along...

Ooooh, was it that one about their song? I love that one.

...excuse me a moment...

*sound of a head banging into the wall is heard...repeatedly*

There. I have a mild concussion...but the song is gone...

[Cobra_Ikari]

You're totally still a cutesy teenager who does stupid adorable stuff. *snuggles*

...we just lie about your age now. >.>

That... sucks.
Doesn't wherever you bought the music from keep track of the music you've bought, so you can download it in cases like these? I still like buying actual CDs, so I wouldn't know, but I kinda figured that's how these things would work.

[Cristo Meyers]

This is why I burned all of my music onto CD's when I got it. I have very little music, compared to most folks, so losing any of it is a large part of my collection.

[Coidzor]

Ooo... That's never fun... I've lost stores of 2 and 3 gigs of music in similar ways myself.

*backpat*

Well, I was talking about the Magic Dance thing, but somehow I got in limbo long enough for it to drift a bit.

Bowie. Hypnotic. Scary, scary man.

[Fredthefighter]

Pretty much all the music I have is either on my Mp3, on a CD, or is on a memory stick.
I hope I never lose a single song, especially anything from my Guns 'N' Roses and ACDC CDs. Now that would be tragic for me.

Ouch, very much ouch....
Good luck with it

Firstly, I have at least 24gb of compressed mp4 files, so imagine how pissed I'll be if I do something stupid like back it up to DVD wrong and get an error message while reloading my PC.

Also, this is why I use TPB.org. If you've bought it already, just go DL some and piss off your ISP. It's not like you didn't pay for it.

These mp3 sellers, they should have some sort of way to regive you their music which you have paid for, but they phale. So nyeh.

[TwoBitWriter]

Lunch time, here I am.

Drider, that sucks to bad. Do you need a hug?

I do...

[Cobra_Ikari]

So...am I the only person who buys physical copies of music anymore? >.>

[Cristo Meyers]

So...am I the only person who buys physical copies of music anymore? >.>

Yes.

You're a strange, strange snake.

I just can't bring myself to buy full CD's anymore. If I'm lucky, I'll listen to maybe half the songs on one regularly, and that doesn't happen often. Switched to buying individuals off of Amazon and never looked back. Burn 'em onto a CD as a physical backup and away we go.

[Coplantor]

So...am I the only person who buys physical copies of music anymore? >.>

Well, I bought three CD's lately, so we are the only ones I guess.

By the way, those CD¡s were The ozzman cometh, the best of deep purple and the best of white snake. ROCK'n ROLL BABY!

[randman22222]

I mentioned in my last post before this that I still do.

[Fredthefighter]

Hey, I buy CD's despite having an Mp3 player. ACDC are special and deserve to be seperate from the rest of my music, so do Guns 'N' Roses.

[Coplantor]

You remind me a little of a friend here in uruguay. He was a such a big fan of the guns that everyone laughed so hard everytime he misspronounced "patience". He spelled it as: Pat - E - ence.

[Coidzor]

hmm... I very rarely buy music. Then again, I rarely acquire music either, so it kinda stands to reason, now doesn't it? Usually I just use things that let me listen to a particular or random song and sample the bit until I get sick of it and go on my merry way.

...Urgh... I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. Anyone else get that sort of reaction when miscommunication leads one to believe that something especially dire, like, murder or rapine is being discussed and it turns out to be something rather trivial and your stomach becomes enraged at the inability of brains to communicate with each other?

[Coplantor]

No, but I can sweat blood whenever i want. It¡s a trick I use to escape from boring situatuions.

[Lyesmith]

Most of my music has been sent from freinds. I dont think i've ever bought a phsyical CD for personal use. Most (if not all) of the music CD's predate my birth. Some of them are still excellent, though. Especially Joni Mitchell.

[Cobra_Ikari]

How about this, then. Who else listens to music in albums?

[Dirk Kris]

>.>
<.<
I used to borrow CD's from my friends and copy them into my XBox so's I could listen to them all the time.
