Also, pie is good. I will consistantly recommend Strawberry Rhubarb pie to all.
Sorry, more of a Beebop-A-Ree-Bop Rhubarb Pie™ kinda guy.
I'm not an androgyn, does that mean I'm not awesome?
Androgyns inspire awe now? Are you sure that's not just people trying to figure out their gender?

I'm no androgyn either.

And I have made up a disease that acts differently for people with different fears...one of them, it warps their body in all sorts of diseased, inflamed, mind-altering, generally messed up ways so that when they die they resemble a five and a half foot tall infant.

Also, listen to this if you're feelin' down. It may worsen your mood, but it may warm your heart.

Meaty, if I knew what those were, I'd answer. :/

I wonder when my school will notice my Tv Tropes surfing?

Okay, thanks to Katrika's suggesstion, I'm now going to write a short story based on the concept posted earlier.

The basic idea is that a (female) Mad Scientist / otaku has created a formula that will turn her into Satoko so she... could get revenge on people or something, I dunno. Well, she drinks/injects it, and there's a Painful Transformation sequence. Then, the scientist is hit by the backwash of Satoko's personality/history/being, loses most control over herself, and it ends with "Satoko" freaking out and crying out for her "Nii-nii".

Feel free to suggest ideas on anything else that I should add.

I'm taking ASL, and I had an idea in class today. However, I can't find it on YouTube. Does anyone know where I could find an ASL rendition of The Aristocrats?

That is a good idea! I would think that searching "the aristocrats sign language" would find it if it exists.

Go to a foreign dictionary, flip to a random page, take a cool-sounding word from that page.

^^ Do that. If it doesn't work, perhaps this site can be of assistance.

Or Doc Smith, whatever floats your boat.

Anything; don't spend much time trying to get it right. Give him any old one as a placeholder, promising yourself to find a better one, but the placeholder will start to sound like the one after using it for a few pages.

So that's why I have so many strange names...

Nope, found a name from the folks on Vent: Dr. Ashley Kirkland.

Now, to write the thing...

Eh, I'll do it tomorrow.

Can I say something about wildly divergent thought processes? Too bad, I want to.

Two Three years ago, now, I told a friend of mine that I wanted to make artificial life. I explained that I would like to make a simulated world and fill it with little simulated creatures to see how ecology and evolution and things work.

As I went on she asked the occasional question but stayed mostly quiet. She was obviously interested  *

. Even if she didn't entirely understand, she did have some insightful input.

Then I mentioned pausing the simulation. This threw her. "What?", she asked me. "How would you 'pause' an entire planet? Some kind of gas to put everything to sleep?"
