Asian Racism WTFkery…and Win.

Posted in blog, epic win, wtf | Leave a comment
Okay – I’m actually horrified that I’m even posting this video because the ignorance displayed in it is really disgusting on so many levels. (And it would be regardless, but given the terrible events in Japan this past week, it sinks to an even greater depth of repugnance.) Nice to see that the UCLA administration thinks so too… There have been many video replies to the above, but none so full of win and awesomesauce as this one: Brilliant all the way around. (Plus he looks a bit like mr myn and therefore I find him very cute.)… Read more

Fresh Pick

Posted in blog | Tagged , , | 4 Comments
Well, yours truly hosed the resonator of her car this morning. (Stupid curb). While I wait for the local car shop to call me back and tell me what the damage is**, I thought I’d mention that A Brush of Darkness is Fresh Fiction’s Fresh Pick today! ** And by damage, I mean $$. Dealership wants $1200 to fix, so anything under that is a win, I suspect. Bleah. And yes, I realize that having my car engine sounding like I’m driving a crappy lawn mower every time I hit the accelerator isn’t life threatening. It is, however, extremely annoying. Guess, I’m just OCD like that. Mechanical stuff needs to work or I get cranky. ‘Nuff said.… Read more

I’m over at The League of Reluctant Adults today talking a little bit about the trading card coolness that’s going to be happening at many of the conventions this summer. And sadly enough, I totally forgot to mention my Word-Whores post from last Thursday – the theme was sexual euphemisms of all things, so feel free to check that out as well. (Yeah, I’m not sure how I forgot to mention it either – think things got a crazy with the scheduling, although I’m not sure that’s anything new. *eyeroll*)… Read more

iPod Blues

Posted in blog, ipod, music | Leave a comment
Not that I’m obsessive or anything. Friday night, my iPod Classic bit the big one. 120 gigs of glorious music reduced to nothing more than a sad metallic grinding sound as the hard drive within started break down. It’s been breaking down for a while, actually – skipping songs here and there, freezing up when I try to forward to something else, etc –  but I’ve been nursing it along for the last six months the best I could. Just about every time I plugged it into iTunes the last few weeks, Windows would freak out and tell me there was some sort of corruption on the drive, but no matter how many times I attempted to scan and fix, it never seemed to work.  Finally, I gave up and tried to restore it, but the sync would get hung up over and over again, which would then cause Windows… Read more
