But dropping that, what are you guys getting for Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/Insert Comparable Holiday Here?

I asked my parents for a tea towel because I am the most exciting of people. -n-

My awesome boyfriend already got me Scribblenauts, though. tongue

I propose a rousing discussion on what is and is not a taku.

This is.

The "delicious shota" conversation from earlier meant it wasn't exactly a hard conclusion to jump to;

OK, that one was my fault. >.<

I honestly have to invent a foodstuff and call it Shota just to mess with people. [lol]

That is not the sound of the conversation being dropped.

I'm getting a 3DS, because the new Paper Mario game is out and I want it; also, because Fire Emblem Awakening is coming out here in a couple months, and that's also a thing I want to have.

My awesome girlfriend already got me Dawnguard, though. tongue

I'm getting some games, possibly the two new Green Day albums, and a gift so apparently awesome that my mom had to get my little brother Beats by Dr Dre to make up for it.

I'm getting a candy thermometer, I hope.

I shall use it to make wonderful apple fritters and other things that need exact temperatures!

Yup, Christmas is only fun with presents right?

I mean- spending all that money: Love it~

I'm getting spiffy new PS 3 games and such. XD

Always be ready to do the unusual and unexpected.

The only thing I know for sure that I'm getting is the Ico and Shadow Of The Colossus HD collection. It's been a while since everything was a surprise. My family generally considers me hard to shop for.

Only thing I know for sure that I'm getting is season two of The Big O. Other than that... Not really sure I care, honestly. Recieving presents long since lost its novelty.

Novelty or not, it's nice to get things and spend time with family.

I hope I'm getting some Transformers. I need fuel for my plastic crack habit.

I'm getting games and music.

My parents, um... don't really know what to get if I tried to ask them for anime and manga, eh-heh...

Also, as for the Worm discussion...

Big "haha, no" as far as Megatron goes. The Cybertronian brain would likely be far more advanced than even the Robot Masters, to say nothing of it being alien technology.

You know that viruses attack things based on known vulnerabilities in the specific systems they target. A virus designed to get into a Windows Vista machine isn't likely to get into a Windows 7 machine and vice-versa unless it was made that way, or both share the same security flaw. And it is almost certain it won't be able to infect an MS-DOS machine or a Linux machine, unless it has Wine and can work through Wine alone to do its dirty work.

If you take into consideration that human technology is derived from the tech used to create Megatron and etc then there is a slim possibility that a virus made to infect a human made machine could infect Megatron. If the two techs happen to have the same flaw in them with the same interface to access that flaw. And by Slim I mean winning the lottery twice. First such a vulnerability has to exist on both platforms and second you have to find it.

The same continues to apply to viruses until you get into sufficiently advanced technology or magitech. A point in which a virus to infect it either has magical power to adapt or it is itself a nanobot seeking to infect things made of nanobots or go in and rip apart and put back together the hardware in a machine to take control of it.

This isn't canon-welding, as well, so I'm pretty sure there would be no similarities.

[up][up] Wrong Megatron. This is a diffferent continuity's Megatron, so it'd be like winning the lottery thrice, with the same numbers each time.

I do prefer a semblance of realism for this sort of thing.

Yeah, I mean... Realism doesn't really work in a multiversal crossover, honestly. Unless it was a multiversal crossover geared solely towards people with realistic powers and capabilities, which this is... Not.[lol]
