This is a nifty meme I stole from pockycrusader:

Go to the Wikipedia home page and click random article. That is your band's name.
Click random article again; that is your album name.
Click random article 15 more times; those are the tracks on your album.

Apparently my band, which seems to be either a death metal band or a math-rock band, does a Beatles cover.

Want to look for something on LJ? According to this post, it looks like LJ/SUP are really cracking down on what you can search for on LJ.

This thread in particular is quite concerning.

On a positive note, we can't accidently search for Spice Girls.

Right now I'm confined to my desktop as my laptop is in a state that I like to think of as "in a coma." I was trying to watch AMV Hell 4 on it but I could only hear it, not see it, so I decided to download GSpot to tell me which codec I needed to get. Unfortunately GSpot does not work with my version of Vista so Windows Explorer is in a constant state of crashing and restarting. I tried going through Safe Mode but the same thing was happening. It should all hopefully be fixed in a few days.

I don't totally mind my desktop since it has XP on it, but it's so slow and always on the verge of crashing.

Last night a few of us got together for our weekly "Colin-Con" except that Colin wasn't able to make it. Someone decided to commandere it and have us get together. Instead of going to a restaurant to eat, we ate at the food court in the mall. At least we got to check out a few stores and bumped into people we knew. Afterwards we went to someone's house and we watched a movie. It was one girl's job to choose between "Fifth Element" and "A Knight's Tale" because she has trouble choosing (and between those two movies because at least a couple people hadn't seen them). It was fun, though the movie wasn't all that great.

A great movie, however, is Ober. It's about a fictional character, a miserable waiter named Edgar, who realizes he's not real. He attempts to take control of his life but things don't turn out quite how he wants it. It also has several zany moments.

Another movie that looks great is Český Sen. I'm planning on seeing it Sunday night because all the other nights it's playing I've got plans.

I was tagged by dokijack



As soon as you are tagged, take a screen shot of your screen AS IS.

I am currently on my laptop, though I never really wanted to change my wallpaper (though I would like to be able to make the icons smaller, but apparently I can't).

I tag: agincourtgirl, jeertastic and happymrlocust because I am curious as to what theirs look like!

Are we going to have to learn Russian and wear Cossack hats now?

The official trailer for "Finishing the Game." Go see it if you can!



I just came back from seeing this movie and it was very much worth seeing. It is both hilarious and original. Roger Fan does and excellent job as Breeze Loo, and Sung Kang is, well, awesome because he's Sung Kang (and okay he can act really well). Watching the documentary, "Building a Journey: From Better Luck Tomorrow to Finishing the Game" was a nice treat because it showed the history of the BLT family, and also showed just how important MC Hammer was to the project.

Definitely one to check out!

You Are an Alien

You're so strange, people occasionally wonder if you're from another world. You don't try to be different, but you see most things from a very unique, very offbeat perspective. Brilliant to the point of genius, you definitely have some advanced intelligence going on. No matter what circles you travel in, you always feel like a stranger. And it's a feeling you've learned to like. Your greatest power: Your superhuman brain Your greatest weakness: Your lack of empathy - you just don't get humans You play well with: Zombies

What Kind of Monster Are You?

Ehn? I don't think I'm that smart.

It's a video worth watching.

Yikes, it's been a while since I last posted. Well not too much of interest has been happening - DDR, laser tag, hanging out, watching anime, reading manga, etc.

However I did see Across the Universe last week and if it's playing in your town, you really should go see it. It's definitely in my top three of movies that came out this year. They did a really good job of casting the movie and arranging the Beatles songs.

I also bought A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. That movie is hilarious. The songs are really catchy too. Man, I've been watching a few musicals lately and I'm rather enjoying them, which is usually not the case.

I still have to finish going through the Alice in Wonderland porn musical, but it's really hard since the songs are pretty bad.

That pun is unintentional. Really!

This weekend I'm going to my parents' to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving. I have to go pick up my Greyhound ticket tomorrow so I don't have to worry about it on Friday. That should be a relaxing weekend, though with stuff going on at home, it could be pretty tense too.

Yeah, that's about it. I'm too tired to type anymore tonight.

My desktop computer really needs new speakers...

However, the crackling makes Calexico's "Black Heart" sound even better!

There's a big get together this afternoon at Stanley Park and I'm not there because I got sick. A few of my friends are there (possibly in cosplay). There was a chance of rain so I didn't want to chance it because I would like to get better by tomorrow. However, by this time I'd probably be ignoring most of the people and doing some reading in the shade (most of the people don't talk to me and I find about half of them annoying).

Also, last night I was invited to go to Science World. They were having an adults only evening where there was science and a cash bar. That would have been interesting to go to. I do like Science World (except when it tries to hurt me), and it would have had a different atmosphere without children running around. Unfortunately it was last night when my cold went full blown. I was hacking and sneezing and hiding under a blanket. I managed to watch the first DVD of Bottle Fairy. I was going to watch the second but I was falling asleep.

Not much has happened since I last did a real post. The all-nighter party on the weekend was pretty good. There was a bit of drama happening there, but overall it was fun. On Wednesday G and I tried out a classic DDR game that he bought used. We were testing it out because he was giving it to someone as part of a birthday gift. I think it was the first DDR Max. Neither of us liked the game much - it was missing too many features that the later games had. Anyway, for a first DDR game, though, it's a good starter game.

Tomorrow I think I'll be lazy since I'll still be getting over this cold. Hopefully it'll be fully gone by Monday morning.

I was telling someone about Bridge Mixture candy, and since he's never heard of it, I went looking for some information about it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_Mixture

I didn't know it was a Canadian invention. I also learned how it was invented - both informative and amusing.

Tonight I made butternut and red peper soup from a recipe azman7050 gave me and it so very delicious.
