You didn't miss much. It was kinda meh.

Edit: assuming you were talking about yesterday

Jones: Is that a city?

I've only just started using Writer's Block. I don't know why I haven't gone there, before.

"...their poisonous stings held high prepared to sting as they set themselves in the sting position to sting their attacker, who no doubt, was prepared to sting back."

I think I've found the best writing.

For some reason, I want to write a story for children...that would traumatize them.

I wonder how I can make a villain who shows traits of serial killer/rapist in a PG level.

>serial killer/rapist

>PG

I'm not sure this is really possible.

Oh, there are ways to do that.

You want to be the next Don Bluth?

Maybe, yes. But with more commercial success.

You just have to throw out tiny hints, without directly describing the character in that manner.

Yeah, that's the plan I'm thinking. It would take a lot of subtlety and research, but hey, what's an author if he is afraid to get his nose dirty in researching?

I mean....traumatizing an entire generation of kids (that doesn't involve any strictly illegal means)! That would be fun, no?

I agree.

So basically, you want to write Bambi.

Oh, Bambi, how you traumatized me. And I LOVE you for it.

Kind of like that, yeah, only more.

So close to getting Medicaid I can taste it. It would be such a relief for my parents for me to get it.

Kids, this is what happens when you are about to fall off your parents medical insurance. I would not recommend getting to that point.

I've got it worse. I turn 26 on August 31. I got my healthcare marketplace application done on Aug 21. I'm also in the process of working out a move across the country, so my last day of employment is Aug 27, I don't know when I'll be working again, and I was planning on leaving the state on Sept 1, but the apartment I was able to get isn't available until Oct 21, so I want to get temporary housing in the same town but I don't know when I'll be able to get it yet...

Do not plan a major life change for the same birthday as when you lose your parents' insurance.

@ Parable: Allegedly, yes, though most Aberdonians tend to think of it as a large and fairly permanent encampment of orcs or similar. It's also where Rockstar Games come from.

It was once invaded by undead unicorns, you know.

Those who trade oil sometimes compare it to Barad-dûr with many camps around it. The rest of Scotland in comparison is The Shire.

Learning Python. I must say, points for originality: this is the first language I've used where my code indentation is part of the program. Annoying as hell though.

& Huh. ._.

And the pictures make it look so pretty.

That's because those pictures don't show the bits where people live.

I am planning on spending my entire week playing the vidyas.

Also, my mum got her first paycheck for her new job, so I can let loose a little with the DLA, hell yeah.

I'm so despicable, heh

My station have been nominated for the Ice Bucket wotsit. Hmmm.

Plenty of cold water all around!

Python's special features so far give me an impression of "neat, even if they're a bad idea in real applications".
