A camera history and warning about the ELPH 300
CAUTION: Canon PowerShot ELPH 300 is FRAGILE.
Here is my exciting camera history, starting in 2002:
First 2 cameras - never broke, just became outdated.
Third camera - total piece of crap. Some Kodak camera that broke in a week - numerous reports online of the same thing, and my friend (hi Bry!) had the same exact problem I had with it. Flawed design.
Forth camera: 100% my fault. I was an...

A response
A very random response to that thing you posted about being an INFP, I think it might be worth pointing out that (at least in the Eurocentric/USAsian way) those personality traits are things we’ve been socialized to consider feminine. But gender’s a sticky sort of thing that kind of has nothing to do with the little boxes of personality. I know a lot of INFP guys have a tough...

INFP
I’m taking a personality assessment deal per orders of my psychiatrist. Here’s my result:
Introverted or Extroverted Extroverts are energized by other people and action. They are talkers, often thinking out loud, interrupting people at meetings, or bursting into a co-worker’s office to ask an opinion, and then not really listening to it. Extroverts become drained when they...

WM28 EARLY PREDICTIONS!
Despite the card not being finalized, I’ve been putting together a card for Wrestlemania 28 in my mind for some time now. These are mostly all based on logical conclusions from current tv storylines/feuds or rumored matches.
DARK MATCH: [some sort of jobberesque Rumble]
MATCH #1 (OPENER): Tag Team Championship
Primo & Epico (C) vs AirBoom vs Brodus/Santino vs The New Age Outlaws

Harry Potter and what it means to me.
After several months, I have finally watched all 8 Harry Potter movies. What started out as an introduction to the world of Harry Potter in preparation for the Wizarding World theme park turned into something much more for me.
When these movies were coming out, I never had an ounce of interest in them. I thought they were below my age demographic - and they were technically at first - so I wrote...

Today...
Today I spent from 2PM to 10PM doing nothing but cleaning/rearranged/drilling/hammering my room. It was long overdue. But I have company tomorrow! Which happens once every few months because I’ve become isolated and weird like Bart Simpson on “Bart of Darkness”(Season 6).
My record player was suction cup’d so much that I had to pry it off with a hammer. That was fun. I...

"Dumbass Metal Kids"
Ultimate Guitar: Fans don’t typically want major changes from the bands they follow. Steven Wilson: You get a lot of criticism. In [Mikael Akerfeldt’s] case he had death threats. Ultimate Guitar: That’s absurd. Steven Wilson: That’s what you get when you’re dealing with a lot of dumbass metal kids. I love you, SW. And I hate all the flack “Heritage” gets for not being metal or...

Post-SOPA KICKS ASS video
Thank you everyone who has reblogged my video. Unfortunately, it seems like the majority of people who have seen it shut it off after 2 minutes, despite the fact that I censored my own website name in the opening intro graphic, which should have set the tone for the video. And despite the fact that I say some ridiculous things in a tone that is quite obviously fake i.e. calling Lamar a...

Also, this:
Astrologers classify Taurus as a negative or passive (introvert) sign. This gives the characteristics of being reflective, receptive to the ideas of others: typically, a ‘thinker’ rather than a ‘doer’. But being of the earth-triplicity, Taurus is considered by astrologers to be a highly practical sign which is happiest when involved in some kind of creative process....
Not that I buy into this stuff, but...
A Taurus doesn’t like to compromise even if they know they are wrong and will more often than not bully the weaker star sign into submission with threats that usually have no substance, but leave the weaker of the two feeling useless and incompetent by destroying their self esteem and belief in themselves.
I kick so much ass; being a Taurus rocks.

Wendy's Wisdom
Announcer: And now, back to The Price is Right! [Wendy sighs]
Dad: Hi, sweetie. What's the matter.
Wendy: Mom, Dad, I'm growing concerned about the role models young women have in today's society.
Dad: Oh?
Wendy: It seems that lewdness and shallowness are being exalted, while intellectualism is looked down upon.
Dad: ...Gosh.
Wendy: I think young women are being marketed to by corrupt, moral-less corporations.
Dad: Well, we'll get right on fixing that, sweetie. Wanna watch The Price is Right?

People forget I think, they sometimes think that if you’re a progressive rock band you write songs about space and fantasy and hobbits and things, and I’ve never written things about that, I’ve always written about - basically - how girls f**k me up.

Author of the Stop Online Piracy Act Lamar Smith... →
US Congressman and poor-toupee-color-chooser Lamar Smith is the guy who authored the Stop Online Piracy Act. SOPA, as I’m sure you know, is the shady bill that will introduce way harsher penalties for companies and individuals caught violating copyright laws online (including making the unauthorized streaming of copyrighted content a crime which you could actually go to jail for). If the bill...
