I've only played the first one, but it's nice to not be able to really slice yourself open while cooking.
lemonkid:
What was that game you were talking about recently where you can make all kinds of things? Like for Nintendo or something?
baudot:
That's quite a few. I already feel as if my attention is, to borrow a few good words, like butter spread over too much toast.
Also, this thread is lonely and wants for your attention.

We had a kid at the school where I taught that we referred to as Two-Step. Nice kid, decent attendance, got about a C for effort, but that was more than most kids got. We never called him Two-Step to his face, his name was actually Demontrae, but it was common in the staff lounge to refer to him as such. We called him this,...

Well as long as you can remove the leaves so it doesn't over-steep, that's the key.
baudot:
You know, I've always been a bit blind to the difference. When last I was here, in '99, the East just seemed a bit poorer, a bit drabber, not much else. Now it's gentrifying. Kreuzberg, the poor enclave of the West, is almost entirely gentrified, and that wave is pushing into its eastern neighbors.
Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot
For some reason, my husband and I got it in our fool heads to celebrate Guy Fawkes day. Possibly because we'll take any excuse for a celebration. We couldn't think of a meal that had a really appropriate 'blowing-up-Parliament' kind of feel, so we're having celebratory commemorative Guy Fawkes tacos and watching V for...

I'll assume the tacos were tortured before consumption. 
lemonkid:
I'm all for eating tacos at the Revolucione!
I love that flowchart too.

Today is the anniversary of my death, fourteen years ago. It's also the anniversary of the day I realized that my mother really should have told me that, because she's deathly allergic to morphine, there's a good chance I would be too.
I try not to be too maudlin about it, though. Even though I was technically dead, it clearly didn't stick. I think I'll...

I'm sure you could find an oversized poster of it online.
charley:
No I agree, I think it adds to that haughty look of hers.
As I was driving down Hawthorne, there was a dude in a pirate costume walking down the sidewalk playing a ukelele. I feel I did what any sensible person would do in this situation: I rolled down the window and yelled, "Play Freebird!"
lemonkid:
Hahahaha
My husband got me the complete collection of Teen Titans, and I'm super excited to watch them. Even though I'm probably 25 years older than the target demographic, I love that show.
lemonkid:
That's a lot of Titans.
lemonkid:
True that.
To be honest, I don't really do anything interesting these days. Sure, I have a couple writing projects going on, I've played a few video games, listened to some awesome music, knit some stuff, etc. But I know well enough that no one really cares about that stuff, and I'm fine with that. I've got no complaints about my private life being calm, comfortable, and...

Talk about polite. With a little CG (or perhaps a lot) carrying the short film to its logical conclusion, Swedish Fish could have had quite the controversial commercial on their hands.
(But perhaps there's an unrated version.)

Pfft. We do that in Canada all the time.

Seriously, you all need to come to my house for coq au vin sometime. It was the best meal I have ever prepared. I was going to take pictures to post here, but we couldn't stop eating.
lemonkid:
Hahaha. A bunch of those times you were grey.
I guess that precludes me from any coq au vin?

I was finally able to quantify something that's been disturbing me for a long time.
I have Phantom Limb Syndrome.
I know that sounds strange. I know you're saying to yourself, "But Keri, you're not missing any limbs!" No, I'm not, and I haven't lost any since the last time you've seen me, either.
Here's the deal: I have an old ankle injury. Thirteen years...

FYI - practitioners of hypnosis and neuro-linguistic programming have had a degree of success helping people with phantom limb syndome, might be worth looking into.
I accidentally bought the PC copy instead of the Mac just now, so they just refunded me.. guess that means I have a second chance.
I downloaded this free game from online that looks cool, but I'd have to play it on Pygmy's computer. It's not Mac compatible.
You Mac or PC? If you're on PC a friend of mine made a prizewinning game that I could recommend.
