KuReshtin's Kallously Konfusing Konsternations - Random Banter #208

[EmeraldRose]

Venus fly traps don't works as well for fruit flies. So yes, some species of Drosera, or sundews with the little hairs with beads on the ends. Those are my favorites. Excepting the Darlingtonia californica.

The cat only eats plastic?

Shame on you.

Well, he eats cat food of course, and chases flies around, and makes that weird cat noise when he sees birds outside, but yeah. He doesn't eat plants he eats plastic. Generally plastic bags (not so much grocery bags but other cellophane type ones) and tape. We absolutely can't leave tape where he can get to it.

Also- here's a cat making the noise:

Took you guys long enough to make that new thread.

But don't mind me, I'll stay here under the bleachers plotting my revenge!

[Somensjev]

So instead of breeding, you're soft resetting? Now that's patience.

read my name. do you think i normally have much patience? That said, i refuse to start my game without a shiny fennekin

[Asta Kask]

Is...Is that Linkara with someone in a poorly executed chokehold?

It is Linkara and MarzGurl from the video Kickassia.

[LaZodiac]

I'm not going to get into it, but it's telling that their legit feature length movie is called just a "video"

[HalfTangible]

Because all our elves are different. And this way their rivalry with dwarves is even more clear. They're competing for territory *and* trees.

Or they're squatting on the dwarves' doorsteps.

In that particular scene Marzgurl had fallen over, and Linkara acted like it was a death scene while she told him she wasn't dead.

Ah. Neat.

[Scorpina]

My friend, without attempting to do so, got a shiny, female Froakie.

He didn't even notice it was shiny until it was a Greninja, somehow.

[DJ Yung Crunk]

So... uh... work's been going good... I guess... Been sorta... y'know... busy...

*Crunk proceeds to trace in the dirt, forlornly*

i ended up giving up, i took a fenekin with full Sp. attack IV's and a helpful nature i'll breed for a shiny later

actually, i'm gonna try a bit longer. just a little longer

What you've just experienced is hitting rock bottom, and going "...maybe I can dig just a little further."

[Asta Kask]

I'm not going to get into it, but it's telling that their legit feature length movie is called just a "video"

Nah, that was just practice. For the real movie, you want "To Boldly Flee". That is legitimately awesome.

[Somensjev]

What you've just experienced is hitting rock bottom, and going "...maybe I can dig just a little further."

yep

and even worse is i'm still not used to thinking in terms of EV's/IV's, i'd normally just level up a pokemon and it's EV's would end up approximately how i want them

[Feytalist]

And so we've got a massive rainstorm going here, set to continue at least until Sunday. Glad I don't have any outside plans for the weekend

Perfect time to start playing Faster Than Light, actually.

That is, if my workload doesn't kill me first. I think I've been working 11 hours a day for at least a week, now. I think I've forgotten what it feels like to not be tired.

[Gnomvid]

Anyone have a good idea for a fruit fly trap? Mostly because I just don't feel like googling it right now. And because I am sick of the fruit flies. And the ants. [/rantaboutsummerinMN]

Sugar water or honey, they check in but do not check out

[LaZodiac]

yep

and even worse is i'm still not used to thinking in terms of EV's/IV's, i'd normally just level up a pokemon and it's EV's would end up approximately how i want them

If you're just playing the game for fun, don't worry about em. Don't bog down the game with overthinking on that level. That's what I do.

[KuReshtin]

Overthinking can kill any game.

[Asta Kask]

Why Time Travel wouldn't be so great.

[Somensjev]

If you're just playing the game for fun, don't worry about em. Don't bog down the game with overthinking on that level. That's what I do.

i've basically decided to do that (though i am keeping an eye on my braixen's EV's, and using serebii's IV calculator, because it's got interesting information

in other news: the first pokemon i got that's not my starter is a squirtle from sycamore, this is new for me, i've beaten the first gym and don't have a boxful of pokemon

[EmeraldRose]

Sugar water or honey, they check in but do not check out

I will try this, thanks! I need to get more honey anyway.

I want more coffee. I don't need more coffee, but I want more coffee. Right now I am settling for a diet coke. This is not as satisfying.

[Asta Kask]

There's always room for another pot'o'Java in there. It's probably slimming, or something.

[EmeraldRose]

Or something. I am sure I will make some more later...

[Asta Kask]

How can there be such a thing as "doesn't need more coffee"? You'd never survive in Sweden. Or Finland. Dear lord, Finland.

[EmeraldRose]

Probably not. I will be honest, I will make some more in a little while...

It's chilly here and I would prefer to have coffee than tea.

[Asta Kask]

Am converting GURPS Conan from 3rd edition to (my version of) 4th edition.

What are you doing?

[Archonic Energy]

thank you, I've just spent 2 hrs watching Dara. and MtW is on tonight too!

memo to self: check Netflix for Craic dealer.

[Asta Kask]

MtW? What's that?

[Archonic Energy]

MtW? What's that?

Mock the Week. topical news comedy.
it's not particularly safe for work or I would post a video.

[Asta Kask]

Right. I love that show!

It's also intensely political, so yeah, no posting.

[Razanir]

Overthinking can kill any game.

"So if I go in the center, I know how to win, but then again, everyone knows how to tie the game with that start. Or I could go in a corner, but I haven't really played that opening too often. There's also the edge, but that's just stupid, since it closes off so many victory conditions..." "Dude, it's just tic-tac-toe."
