Yeah?
Well then, here, have a band aid!!

Idk…
I have no idea what possessed me to draw this let alone post it. But I’m bored, so bite me!

*OUCH!*

OMG HERE HAVE ANOTHER BAND AID!!!

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAH!!!1

…

Sorry. :/

*leaves*

Isn’t it horrible?
Cartoon characters beating each other over the head with frying pans and high speed ADD over the top martial arts fights in cartoons like Dragonball Z. Swords in Mulan and Mickey using his broom as a weapon in Fantasia. It’s absolutely horrid what kids these days watch in terms of violence. OMG! It must be traumatizing and completely warping their minds!

Back in my day when I was a kid and watched TV we were never exposed to that kind of violence.
We watched nice harmless cartoons, with cute things, like bunnies…

(JC… I’d forgotten how horrid Watership Down was ’till I found this compilation of the bad scenes on the net and watched it lol. Now I know why the song “Bright eyes” always made me depressed without me really knowing why :P)

Yup, it was my birthday yesterday so I’m a year older
Can’t say I’m looking forward to the next one lol.

We had a great day though. We hadn’t been to this year’s Renaissance fair yet, we wanted to go the weekend before last but the weather really sucked. So I figured why not make it a fun birthday trip instead And so we did. The weather was awesome and it was fun to wander around there and check out all the different shops and shows. Got a cool tricorn hat and a very cute bracelet with little wooden beads carved into skulls for my birthday so YARR! I’ll have to complete the set now and get me a proper costume to go with the hat for next year

Now to completely change the topic…

This morning I was staring at my desktop and I saw the sims 2 icon. I almost clicked it to play a bit when I thought “hmmm, I wonder how hard it is to make custom skins for sims. Other people do it, so maybe I should give it a go.” And so I got started. After browsing a few sim mod sites I decided that there just weren’t enough Star Trek sims out there. So I decided I was going to make a holodoc lol.

I didn’t put too much effort in, this was just a test really. I edited the face skin to try and put some of his facial features in, modified an existing sims2 haircut and attempted to create the uniform also using a standard sims outfit to modify.

Gotta say I’m pretty happy with it for a first try. I was kinda expecting me to completely mess up the textures and end up with a face full of hair or a half nekkid guy with shoes covering his nipples but it turned out ok XD

I also made a package file so if anyone’s incredibly bored and wants to play around with him let me know and I’ll send it to you.

So today I copied two characters to the PTR to check out what’s in store for the next patch

The login screen already had me all sortsa excited lol, since it’s very WOTLK-y.
There’s a bone dragon flying around and everything (yes on the login screen lol).

After that I took a tour through Stormwind (The king is back btw!) and checked out the new barber shop. Though I still like the look of my NE Druid the way it is best. But it’s a fun feature to play around with if you like to change it up from time to time. I also had a peak at Stormwind Harbor. Which is a whole lot bigger than I was expecting. It’s very cool looking. Of course we all got booted off the ship when we tried to get to Norhrend

After that I logged onto my Horde hunter to see which interesting new pets I could tame.
I wanted to get the cool 2 headed wolf version of the core hound model. Same one as Omen during the festival of the moon. You can get a lvl 12 version of it in a cave on Azuremyst isle. Unfortunately I wasn’t the only one with the idea (which I was expecting lol) but to my astonishment people were actually being civilized about it! :O Both Horde and Alliance people were forming a neat little line in the cave, each waiting their turn to tame the respawn lol. So that was a baffling but nice surprise.
It took a while, with all the time between respawns but I finally managed to get to the front of the line

And then it was just a little more waiting till he respawned for me and I could tame him.

And don’t pay too much attention to my Tauren’s face lol.
They still have a lot of bugs to iron out. One of the problems was that the skins aren’t on the models properly and the hair isn’t either. So Tauren kinda look like they have a very bad case of receding hairlines, and a badly done face lift pulling their lips back a bit too far atm lol!

But overall it was fun. I really love the extra stable slots and the fact that mounts and vanity pets are all learnable as spells now. Yay bagspace!

oooOOooooOooo.
Yes, this entry is about a strange phenomenon which has been happening in our back yard.

Almost every morning, when I let the dog out I notice that the lid of our garbage can is covered in little poos. Now it’s a bear proof garbage can, since we have bears in the area. What that means is that it’s not a loose lid which you can just easily pull off. It’s actually a screw top. and it’s got a pretty air tight seal to it. So there’s nothing to be had there food wise. And because of the seal there’s no smells coming out either. None that I can smell anyway and my sense of smell is pretty good, just ask Mord. I’ll complain cause I smell the cat’s bad breath from across the room lol.

So anyway, it’s a pain in the butt to have to clean the lid every day and I’ve been wondering wth it is that keeps crapping on our garbage can. The poos kinda look like mouse poo. So even though I’m usually not all that keen on killing things, I’m sick and tired of wiping off a lid full of crap every day just so I can put my garbage in the trashcan without getting my hands dirty, so I put a mousetrap on it. One of those instant kill things they have to get into and you don’t even have to deal with seeing them.

Of course the damn things been out there for weeks now and nothing’s gone in. And today, to put the icing on the cake I found that they’d even crapped on top of the damn mousetrap

So now I want to know why the hell “something” is having a conference on top of our garbage can every night. I don’t find the poo anywhere else, not on the deck either, just the garbage can lid. So tonight I’m going to put a cam next to the window and see if I can catch the little bastards on video, so I’ll at least know wtf I’m dealing with here.

So yes. Stay tuned for Mystery poo pt. 2.

It’s been a while since I actually received amusing spam. And by that I mean spam of which either the contents or subject are funny enough for me to not delete it right away.
The last one I remember was an advertisement for some CD. The contents of which I never managed to figure out because the entire thing was written in really bad Engrish. I vaguely remember them asking to “Please not replay this message” and to “Prepare to be amazing!!”.

Since then it’s been kinda boring though, all I get is spam from people trying to get me to date women and ones that want me to change the password of my non existing paypal or e-bay account on their badly done copies of log in pages.

Today I got one that made me smile though.

Moar lolspam plz!
