Who on earth is Master Chief?

My biggest cat - the fat orange tabby - just managed to fall off the air-conditioner onto my computer desk, knock everything flying, lacerate my finger (which was in the way of his fall), and turn the computer off. All in one fell swoop.

[Player_Zero]

Character from Halo. That game.

[CurlyKitGirl]

That... Just sounds like a bad idea. Why would you read things to mess with your head when you're already trying to mess with your head in another way?

1) I didn't realise how tired I was.
2) I'd never read Lovecraft before.
3) It was borad daylight.
4) I don't scare easily.
5) I laugh during horror films and books.
6) I didn't realise how I'd react to them.

You haven't been around video gamers for 8 years, have you?

He's the main character of the Halo games.

Sorry , make that more like 12 years.

[CurlyKitGirl]

I've never really played any video games. That's almost eighteen years worth of non - playing.
Only one I've ever really played was AoE II

Curly, about The Yellow Wallpaper - did you read this article in the Guardian?

I think the reason that story is so terrifying is because it's so real. Charlotte Gilman Perkins nearly was driven mad by a doctor who told her never to think, write or paint ever again. I'm positive that kind of thing happened to many more women who wanted to think, and write, and paint...

It is hideously scary.

. . .
Now it's made the story even worse, and it creeped me out before.
Horrible doctor, horrible treatment, porr women, I'd have gone mental.

Ah, but she used the experience of nearly going mad to write that story. She was an amazing woman.

[randman22222]

Today, I thought I was honestly going crazy. I had a weird feeling going through my brain that is just not describable other than insanity lurking behind the corner. But it went away. It was honestly a little scary.

And now I'm singing along with "Revolution". At the top of my lungs. Because no one's home.

But if want you money from people with minds that hate,
All I can tell you is brother you'll have to waiiiit!

Now I'm back in the USSR.

I'm back in the USSR!
You don't know how lucky you arrrre, boy,
Back in the...
Back in the...
Back in the USSR!

[Recaiden]

I was like that, but sleep fixed it.

Sometimes I listen to several of my favorite songs at once on YouTube. It sounds really weird sometimes. Like Viva la Vida and Hare Hare Yukai.

The Yellow Wallpaper was just very creepy. The move into crazyness in it.

I understand he is an pretty cool guy who kills aliens and doesn't afraid of anyone. (sic)

Cease your quasi-socialist hollerings and dronings upon the instant sirrah! The end result of your perverse glossolalic behaviour will be an inexorable spiral into pale-skinned, watery-eyed, sunken-chested, longhaired, damp-palmed, twitching Marxolatry.

She didn't even have dial-up access? That's just inhuman.

Let me hear your balalikas ringing out, come and keep your comrade warm.

So I got back from my business trip to Dallas just in time for the coldest night in 5 years. My puny heater could not keep up: the thermometer on the thermostat went off the scale at the bottom (~45 degrees F). Not a pleasant homecoming.

Errr, both of the songs were against socialism, Marxism, et. all.
The first, antagonistically, the second, sarcastically.

EDIT: I now have red beans and rice. Yum.

*pauses to reflect on this*

Valid and legitimate points (intellectual depravity of the twisted Scouser Lennon notwithstanding). I notice, however, that you are wearing shades indoors. A sure sign of 1st stage Marxist infection! Confess your crimes!

*resumes jabbing*

(Eggy just got his mail-order Commiesmeller Persuivant garb today, and is determined to get his money's worth out of it)

Falsely accusing fellow Citizens of being Commie Mutant Traitors is Treason, Citizen...

*Tasers Cristo for speaking out of turn.*

Nope, I'm a social democrat. Not Marxist.
Thppt.

EDIT: This is not a political discussion. This is just an excuse for tasering Cristo.
@V: Fixed.
After how long has it been? Anyway, I think I'm finally feeling a tiny bit of remorse for the electrocution...

[Cristo Meyers]

...like you ever needed an excuse...

John Lennon - still seditious after all these years. Did you know the Beatles were banned in China for the longest time? Guess which song did it...

Exactly. Even the Carpenters are more popular than the Beatles here.

*looks out window*

Huh, can't be that cold out there.

*opens window*

*screams as a strong wind comes roaring through the opening*

*slams window shut*

*Finally realizes that there is thick ice on window*

It is now -2 degrees F here.

[Cristo Meyers]

psh, wuss, it was -12 here this morning and probably not much warmer now

[randman22222]

Man, here it was around 15 C. Naturally, I had to wear a jacket.

[UncleWolf]

Let me clarify. I had just gotten out of a hot shower, my room is/was hot, and I needed some fresh air.

And I was still not completely dry, let alone dressed.(my roommate skipped out on me this semester)

[Player_Zero]

So tired...

Oh for f***'s sake... It just gone half an hour past the hand-in deadline for my assignment. VERY annoying...

And I don't have any food left... And I can't be bothered to go buy any.

And I only have one pair of socks.

Today sucks.

[Cristo Meyers]

Let me clarify. I had just gotten out of a hot shower, my room is/was hot, and I needed some fresh air.

Just gotten out of a warm bed, the furnace had just kicked on, and I needed to scrape ice off of my car...

If I could do conversions in my head I'm sure I'd want to hit you right now.

As I said, I was still...partly wet.

59 degrees F.

It's a lovely 20 F here now, with a slight breeze. I left my coat at home.
