8:22 am - Meme stolen from Katy
1. Pick 20 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDB and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them for everyone to guess.
4. No Googling / using IMDB search functions. That's cheating and it ruins the fun.

Since she took some of the movies I would use, this took longer than I'd hoped. Then again I've seen way too many movies so...

1. You're indestructible! Bullets slide off you, you play with 'em.
2. They all have husbands and wives and children and houses and dogs, and, you know, they've all made themselves a part of something and they can talk about what they do. What am I gonna say? "I killed the president of Paraguay with a fork. How've you been?"
3. From now on, you're in the gettin'-fucked-by-us business.
4. What the fuck have you done lately?
5. Not without incident.
6. That would be me, the shit.
7. What? You gonna shoot me? Go ahead, shit, you got nothing to lose, I damn sure got nothing to lose, so go ahead, shoot me. Shoot me.
8. I'm telling you this like a friend because if you screw this up - I would hate to... I would really hate to have to kill you. I would hate it more than mayonnaise. You know how much I hate mayonnaise.
9. Well, women in London must have learned not to breathe.
10. Justice is balance. You burned my house and left me for dead. Consider us even.
11. Really? There's a stalker book? Great, I gotta read that one.
12. "Ice cream... I'd like an ice cream please." "Okay, what flavor?" "It doesn't matter. It's for my ass."
13. Let's face it, this is not the worst thing you've caught me doing.
14. I think it's better to have ideas. You can change an idea. Changing a belief is trickier. Life should malleable and progressive; working from idea to idea permits that. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can't generate. Life becomes stagnant.
15. Why don't you just shut up and let me figure out a plan that doesn't involve mass suicide!
16. I'm a lead farmer, motherfucker!
17. I'm... I'm just saying... frogs start falling from the sky... who do they come to? We'll be world renowned.
18. Wow! I cannot believe you're not retarded!
19. No. Actually I'm quite fastidious. I put them in this box just to screw with you.
20. "Empire" had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All "Jedi" had was a bunch of Muppets.

I'm so going to regret forgetting something.

3:10 am - Userpic change time.
So, someone found this userpic hysterical (as do I; it's even better in context), and I realized my old userpic (the labyrinth) was both outdated and no longer served its purpose so... I changed it! :p

By the way; this song owns.

2:31 am - Yay gaming.
I'll be the first to admit I've fallen in and out of the "loop" of gaming many, many, MANY times... But I've always come back in some way. This made me smile.

Maybe Jack Thompson actually DID contribute something positive after all!

Off topic: IT'S SO DAMN HOT. GAH. Why is it like this already in late May/early June?!

Semi on topic:

I very well may, for the first time, consider buying a system solely because of one game (if I have the money).

7:56 pm - Time for a (serious, mood-wise) update.
Found out a lot about my dad's health today, and the complications he's got. Had a long talk with my mother, found out a lot of things I didn't know.

1:18 am - Been a while, hasn't it?
Indeed it has. I've.. Really got no excuse besides "I haven't felt like posting/been putting it off". Sue me. So, let's see..

Family and Health )

Oh.. And youtube/google/what have you Jonathan Coulton. Independent artist who writes some pretty amusing/interesting stuff... Plus, he advertises by word of mouth/etc, so downloading his stuff isn't illegal or anything; his "label" promotes it. Worth a look at the least.



P.S. Before anyone asks/says anything...

No, I am not alone any more. And no, I'm not expanding any more than that. :P

4:08 pm - Thanksgiving.
We all have things to be thankful.. And that is the significance of today.

Ignore the history behind it, and simply spend today appreciating and enjoying the things you should be (and perhaps are) thankful for.

10:52 pm - Let's see...
Yesterday I watched The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Léon (The Professional)..Both great movies (though sheesh, talk about genre-jumping).

And then today I watched Eurotrip and King Arthur... The former was hilarious, the latter was pretty interesting.

It's a movie week? :P

11:33 pm - So..... Let's see. (Movies...And stuff)
Whee school? :P Same as always, I guess.

Since my last update (or so) I've watched... Let's see.

Garden State
The Truman Show
The Usual Suspects
Memento
Identity
Click

All of which were VERY good movies. Garden State was a nice and refreshing look at more normal ideas and real life, whereas The Truman Show was fantastic and a nice mix of comedy and drama... Same goes for Click (although I thought it was the best movie out of all of them... Just very well done). The Usual Suspects, Identity, and Memento are all movies that throw the mind for a loop and have huge plot twists... I suggest all six of these movies to people. But then again, don't I always? :P

6:57 am - Progression and Regression
The world never stops or ceases for anyone... Neither do people.

The largest problem of humanity (as I see it) isn't the "necessary evils" or blind faith. It's much more simple than that. The biggest possible thing that hurts humanity?

Conflicts of interest simply because people come from different "places and times".

But eh. One day, people will earn to see all sides of things regardless of their own self-interest.

....Can you tell I never have and never will be good at lying to myself?

1:27 am - .........Bleh? :P
Hnn. I've stopped doing what I've seemed to be (relatively) good at. Granted, not completely, but still.

I'm think I'm just going to eventually accept people can hear what they need to all the time, but they'll never listen. 'Cause, well, you know.

The truth never seems to matter against probability. At least, not that I've ever seen.

Bleh. One more year, I think.

1:58 pm - So.........Yeah. Blehga.
Couldn't sleep.. Just finished watching "Endless Sunshine of the Spotless Mind".

GREAT movie. Made me think a lot and showed so many intricacies of life.

'Course as with all thinking, comes consideration. The ending is ambiguous, which was good, but I just...

Every once in a while you reflect. And think. And reconsider. And eventually it just leaves you with a feeling o-

Blah. I'm just having one of my moments, ignore me.

7:18 am - It's just one of those days...
Musical interludes aside (I considered breaking out the lyrics to that old Limp Bizkit song when I typed that title, no matter how much I disliked that song XD)...

I'm having one of my thankful moments. I have a lot of things to be thankful and, I guess, just as many things to NOT be thankful for (even though I blame myself for those >_>).

Times like these prove to me that the world is indeed balanced. Sure, I may not be the happiest person in the world, or the luckiest, but I have a very firm grip on myself and reality. Ever since I've... For lack of better explanation, become the person I am, it just verifies how different I seem from most of the people I know. I'm a lot more...Bland. As such, all these apply to after I started being who I am. >_> So "never" means "not since then" basically.

While I've come closer before (when I was younger and a lot more stupid :P), I can't ever say I really hated anyone. I haven't ever lashed out at someone else or been particularly bitter...

Every single person I know that I consider to be, you know, competent and sensible and crap... Well, I've seen all of them snap in some way. Just fly off the handle and lash out, or freak out, or just let their emotions/feelings/etc. control them. I've never gone and just gone off at someone else... It's just never made sense to me. I look too quickly to find the good and reasoning behind things, because I can already identify the bad automatically. Eh... That's just how I work I guess.

That's really what I'm thankful for in my own weird way, I guess... And I think I'll just let myself "have at" for a quick moment to explain it simply.

I'm not fucking senseless enough to do the shit you people do just because you think you're always so god damn right.

*Ahem*

Anyway... Yeah. That's the trade-off I have, though. All the people who I mentioned before have all done that at some point, and they all don't really regret it too much. Or, at least, not enough to take it back... But they're also happier and live much better lives. They're better people in general.

And therein lies the balance (or irony, I guess) of how I am. I can appreciate the different views of everyone and everything like that... I don't let myself fall prey to the bad sides of emotion, at the cost of cutting myself off from the good sides.

I always wonder if it's worth it, if it's worth being sort of miserable for the sake of being "logical" and "sensical" and "controlled" and "smart" and all that...

In the end it always seems to come out close to 50/50%, but I always end up staying the way I am. I guess that's why I'm just not good at being with other people. I don't let myself get lost in things easily. Just too.... "deeply rooted"? Eh. I just can't in good conscience and sense be as free-spirited and illogical and whimsical as everyone else can.

'Course, now I went from thankful to questioning. Guess that's just how things go.

Oh well, guess that means I'm done being silly and acting like any of this changes anything. Sometimes I just wish part of me wasn't so easy tempted into giving in.

Either way, I've become too accepting of how things are. And I suppose that's something not too many people do. I mean, I guess no one really WANTS to accept things that are horrible, even if they are true/right/whatever. But... I guess I've just... I haven't become USED to it, really. I've just become so accepting of it, that at this point to go against it... To fight it and try to change it, well, it just doesn't seem like I should or really have the right to.

But eh. Such is the way of the world.

current mood: Questioning.
current music: Speechless - The Veronicas
