Topiku muyo!

Had an odd thought last night: An in-game action can be considered cinematic if it would look cooler in slow motion (at least the first time). Thoughts?

I ran across the term "appropriated art" earlier today, which strikes me as a stupidly arrogant concept. Most of the rest of the world calls that "stealing", folks.

My last RL role-playing game has been cancelled; although I don't bear any ill will toward anyone involved (the GM is now preparing not only for her doctoral dissertation but for her wedding), it means that I'm now a participant in exactly one game. This is somewhat less than my self-determined optimal number.

I've discovered that in order to afford Spain in January, I'll have to save $300 from every paycheck from here to the end of the year. That's not going to happen (for the next two paychecks, at least, I'm not going to have $300 to save), so, er, maybe later. I really hate that - really, really hate that - because I know that "maybe later" has a tendency to mean "not gonna happen", but I am keeping it on my to-do list. Just maybe not in January.

In a million years they'll decide it's a giant flatworm

Paddington Development Corporation has just unveiled, or rather unrolled, a startling new pedestrian bridge which crosses an inlet from the Basin in front of the new Marks and Spencer headquarters.

IHNJ...

...it just occurred to me that someone might be amused that for the last week and a half, I've been bringing my lunch to work in a Hellboy lunchbox.
