5 days in a row, I've practiced! When I win the lottery, I'm getting myself a fancy PRS with a fancy "crossfade":

A playlist on Spotify featuring 4 years of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo

Yeah, I had a phone like that (although not a Nokia). Not a trillion pieces, but one crucial one -- the tab on the battery compartment disappeared and the phone was never the same again after that. The antenna (do you remember antennas?) also wouldn't extract as easily ever again. But dude, it's a joke. It's not a serious comparison. Look at the X-ray, it's hilarious. Also, I didn't realize the 6+ is the same size as the Note II -- I could probably bend the Note II in my back pocket, even with my convex concave form-hugging ass.

From the deer's perspective, "wussy deer has slap fight with puny human"; from the man's perspective, "HOLY SHIT, THIS DEER IS GOING TO KILL ME": https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152367916218889

I would never put a Poptart in my back pocket.

I can't stop listening to this track. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x22fyra_butch-c-vogt-the-infamous-robytek-vs-shield-re-edit_music

I don't think they mean "caramelized", but I'm not going to complain -- yes, please.

Windows: ZoneAlarm, paid version. Sorry, I've been meaning to get around to finding one for linux, I usually don't worry about it because linux is...whatever the opposite of ubiquitous is..."low profile"? Or I'm doing research, in which case I use WireShark to monitor both incoming and outgoing network activity. But it does nothing to stop it. EDIT: I think linux is finally becoming popular enough to become a concern however.

Myrkur I heard someone describe this as, "if Enya did black metal", so was immediately intrigued. It's kind of metalgaze, though not as gazery as Shape of Despair, and gets a bit blastery so I am definitely enjoying it.

Happy birthday, Steve! (party favour noise)

(squints) I'll have to look that up, I have no idea what something with "John Zorn" and "love songs" in the same breath would sound like.

Well, I don't mean to get all Jacob ants-in-pants-y about Mazda3s, but historically, they've been great sellers, the 6s, not as much, although they've steadily been getting better. And they adjust their manufacturing numbers to try to match anticipated sales, so they may have just not anticipated how much better the 6 was going to sell this year vs. the 3. And thanks for your impressions, I didn't realize the WRX had gotten that much bigger, it (as the Impreza) used to be significantly smaller. Sounds like you got exactly what you were after.

Well done! You thought the Mazda3 was more cramped than the Mazda6, but how did it compare with the WRX? Not doubting your decision, your impressions match everything I heard about all cars, and I think you made a great choice, just curious...I'm actually glad the 3 is as (not) big as it is, it'll keep me from gaining any more weight, I think.

I don't know about you-alls' asses, but mine's like a memoryfoam pillow.

I wouldn't call 9 out of...however many...a problem. Nine. Not nine thousand, not even nine hundred...nine. Is it considered trolling if I know that Jacob will respond? And how?

Hardline is the way to go, yo.

Very much like, they occupy that (waves hands vaguely) organic acoustic indie/alternative space somewhere around Devics with a male vocalist...? I'm grasping I know, there's someone else they remind me of more, but I'm not putting my finger on it...anyway, they're still their own thing, very much like.

For those of you as smitten with Kawehi as Dan and I are: Evolution 2

$60/month? I'm paying more than that for unltd/unltd/1GB.

There's something better about a girl singing it:

Tupacthulu

Agreed. Srsly. Can't fucking wait.

Want Thai Pizza. I know what I'm doing tomorrow. (CPK.)

It is still my favourite of their ouevre. I am listening to Syro. Finally. It doesn't suck.

I swapped out the video version, which included nymphs and ...uh...whatever the male word for nymph is in plural. I thought it was more important to post the whole song.
