From now on I'm going to use 'Disregard that, I cook socks' whenever I say something stupid.

Also in this post: The Last Remnant spoilers, fangirling and my thoughts on ships. Interesting stuff, I'm sure.
( Meanwhile, in gamer country... )

More proof that I seem completely incapable of finishing games before starting a new one: The Last Remnant is pretty rad. I really dig the battle system, even if it is governed by the Random Number God (lol no i won't let you heal whut).

More importantly, and very relevant to my interests, it's gay. Gay with sprinkles. Aww, we can't say no to Dave! And normally I don't go for bleached blond guys with surfer tans, but oh, he's so hot. I think it's the voice.

Also, Emma Honeywell is the most badass videogame female ever. And the music is so good. SO GOOD.

ETA: Cavalry Call sucks ass. "Yes, this battle's almost over! ...oh, fuck no, fucking Cavalry Call. ...What the hell, six new unions?! And there goes my morale bar..."

ETA2: OH GOD GATES OF HELL. My own summon trying to murder me is not what I call a fun time, game. And I'd got it down to critical HP too :(

Also, it really does shoot exploding zombie babies at you and craps fireballs. And here I was thinking people were just joking.

But really, Enthrall sucks ass.

So I ditched Vesperia for Dissidia: Final Fantasy (mostly because Dissidia's on a handheld while I have to play Vesperia in my parents' room) and then finally got my hands on Lost Odyssey after which I started playing Dissidia again (without actually finishing LO, go figure). So game logs really are imminent, if I actually go and take the time to write them instead of lurking on the GameFaqs Dissidia board. The board's been useful for tips et cetera, but what really struck me is how many people apparently wanted Sora to be in the game. I mean, maybe I'm blind, but I don't see the words 'final' or 'fantasy' anywhere in Kingdom Hearts.

Also, as someone put it best: 'Before, in Final Fantasy IX I thought Kuja was a powerful sociopath with a flair for the dramatic. Now he's just a theatre major who can cast Ultima.'

I am, however, immensely pleased with the fact that Cecil's lipstick made it in, even if all others seem to hate it.

I am not dead yet. I am, however, enchanted with my shiny Tales of Vesperia game, and gamelogs are imminent. Probably.

Vacation was pretty awesome; a more detailed account to come later, since I am very lazy.

The new registration system for my university is a load of crap, as is gmail this day, but how is that any different from usual?

THIS.

Because when I hear people talking about rape and assault victims like, 'oh, it was totally her fault, going around dressed like that', or, 'she shouldn't have been walking around alone, the stupid girl', I just want to smack a bitch. No. NO. I should be able to walk around naked and a guy still hasn't got the right to touch me.

Like I really needed new fandoms. Two new fandoms. Uuuugh. And Infinite Undiscovery really is not my sort of game - except that it is, JRPG whore that I am - not my art style, cliche story, on the XBox which I don't have and it's supposed to be a really shitty game anyway uugh brain stop fangirling Edward, he's a dick.

A-and then Hetalia. No really, brain, stop it. Stop it. I don't even like history all that much, which is probably a major failing for a polsci student, but what can I say? Numbers make my head hurt. I am just weak versus politics. And I don't like Hetalia's art style, and the fandom's kind of imposing and oh god brain stop shipping Germany/Italy.

sob.

Going to the special hell, yeah.

a-also I find myself shipping Holland/Canada, and Holland hasn't even officially appeared yet! He only made an appearance in silhouette after beating up Finland and Sweden but oh god the tulips. The tulips. And I really want this exchange:

Benelux: [arrives]
America: YEAH I AM A HERO! [oppresses Germany]
Germany: [is oppressed]
Belgium: Whatever. Thanks for saving us, I guess.
America: [is centre of attention]
Holland: [ignores] Canada! Thanks for sheltering me and my queen! And liberating me! Here, have flowers!
Canada: O-omg someone remembers me!
America: what. what is this.
Holland: [ignores America]
America: but. but we saved you guys. We bombed Germany.
Holland: yeah about that bombing, yeah that was Nijmegen, America.
America: ...oh.

Ziiiieeeek ;_;

M'n neus zit verstopt, mijn oren en mijn keel doen pijn, mijn huid voelt overal gevoelig aan en ik kan niet voorover buigen zonder hoofdpijn te krijgen of gaan liggen zonder dat mijn neus volloopt. Uuuugh.

Ik hoop dat ik zondag weer beter ben :S

I just decided to put all of my grievances with customers into one long bitchfest. FYI, I still work at the ice saloon/lunchroom, with a snackbar at the other side of the market where I sometimes help out with the queues for ice cream. The ice saloon/lunchroom place is split up: you can order drinks, food and coupes on the terrace or inside, but if you want a cone or slush you'll have to go to the ice cream counter where all the ice is stalled out, with name tags underneath and prices and everything above. This is because we have separated the 'food/drink' money and the 'ice cream' money, because people ordering cones on the terrace is something you just do not want, especially when it's busy. It can also result in double orders.
Furthermore, you have to pay as soon as we bring you your order, or the first half of it. This is because we have had too many customers walking away without paying in the past.

Also, I generally like all customers when it's not busy. As soon as it gets busy I hate them all and want them to stop whining and go away.
( Blah blah you've heard it all before )

tl'dr: customers suck.
And I probably forgot things, too.

Let's do a meme, guys! You tell me five of my interests you don't get, and I'll explain the story behind them. Then I do the same for you. The list's on the profile page!

Reason for being generally absent:

Last Friday: work from 12.00u till 22.30u.
Last Saturday: working on Comparative Governance homework.
Yesterday: work till 17.00u, then to Nijmegen to work on Political Analysis homework till 22.30u.
Today: in Nijmegen to work on Political Analysis homework from 9.45u till 21.00u.
Tomorrow: to Nijmegen to work on Political Analysis homework from 9.30u till 13.00u, then back home for my Zonnebloem-related work, then work from 17.00u till 20.00-ish.
After that: learning for exams.
WOOOOEEEE.

( By the way, Eline, would this be relevant to your interests? )

Tales series fangasm behind the cut.
( Blahblah blabbity blah )

Bisexuals? In my Torchwood?! It's more likely than you think.

The whole intro of Torchwood could in fact be replaced with: Torchwood. Outside the government, beyond the police. Good at walking dramatically in a straight line and almost destroying the world every forthnight. Saving the world from their own fuck-ups, one bisexual encounter at a time. And Torchwood is ready.

I mean. It's not as if anyone watches it for the plot.

scans_daily got pulled down =(

...but maybe I should start searching for Deadpool related things anyway.

ETA: though I should, apparently, ignore everything written by Way.

Uitgeput metaquotes was daar een wijl geleden een bekendmaking gepositioneerd dat lamenteerde overgebleven het overschot innemen van het lexicon van Word. Hoewel opgeknapt medegedeeld, het onwelvoeglijk nuttigen hiervan. Ik peinsde dat het bron een olijk proefneming zou existeren afwisselend te turen wat er absent verschijnt gelijk ik dit annonce dienovereenkomstig aanstonds aftaai decoreren: bijgevolg onopvallend afgedraaid progressief harmoniëren en ongefundeerd een verzekering schiften. Nou, hier stappen we op!

According to the mingle screen of my DS I just ran into 'bliss on a stick'.

There is a cock joke waiting in there somewhere.

Yeah. Just guess which game this is about.

Also, about the title? Math jokes are totally fair game, no matter how crappy, or the fact that I had to steal it off the Internet for I fail at math.

ALSO A WARNING*

( I will now commence squeeing. Run, run for your life! )
