- 07:22 @cupholder189 So what's so great about football, anyway? ;) Rugby is almost the same, except way less wimpy. Much more awesome to watch! #
- 11:36 @beautydreaming DDDD: *cuddles you briefly so as not to infringe lol* #
- 14:37 @beautydreaming I love Bloodsport! Awesome fight scenes. :D #
- 15:19 Whose Line, Rocky Horror style coffee grinder song!!: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSa3EFCn-14 I nearly died, lol. #
- 15:54 @beautydreaming Oh yeah. :D Also, how are you feeling now? #
- 15:57 @beautydreaming Awwww, no fun. *HUG* Take it easy as you can, yeah? #
- 21:03 @labelle_rebelle It was yay and ended with me feeling like I actually did something productive, which is a feeling I've lacked lately. #
- 21:56 @jhameia I tried on a button up at Walmart today in their store line (725 Originals) in an XL and I couldn't do it up over my boobs. Yeah. #
- 22:12 Mmmmmm, crayon smell! *colours happily* #
- 00:04 Sooooo bored. #
- 04:13 Soooooo bored. Augh. #
- 05:53 Little over an hour left. Hurry up, time-space continuum! #
- 06:18 *beats head off stock cart for lack of anything better to do* #
- 07:23 @cupholder189 What game is this? #
- 07:23 okeh sleeptiemz nao zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz #
- 12:03 @cupholder189 Ahhhh, right. #
- 15:29 @hurricanewinds Hey, how did last night go? #
- 16:46 bit.ly/undefined #
- 16:46 Oh, YUCK: bit.ly/undefined #
- 16:48 Okay, the previous link is messed up for some reason: bit.ly/96pAJJ #
- 17:30 @beautydreaming I'm forever finding expired stuff, ugh. Found pickles that expired in 08 over the summer - on the sales floor, not out back #
- 20:18 @labelle_rebelle What's KQotD stand for? #
- 23:20 We have a truck tonight! YAY FOR STOCK! #
- 03:52 Augh headache. Damn you, flourescent lights, you are NOT helping. D: #
- 05:57 Yay for being at work for another hour. With absolutely everything done. ...Yeah. Less than enthusiastic here. #
- 07:01 Seven o'clock, time to go home! Woohoo! *scarpers* #
- 16:27 @hurricanewinds ...Yes? #
- 16:49 Watching a DLed version of the new Sherlock Holmes while eating noms. <3<3<3<3<3 Watson! #
- 17:12 @labelle_rebelle
Oh yeah!! I saw it twice in theatres, lol. Best and most accurate portrayal of Watson ever, I would have to argue. # - 17:28 @labelle_rebelle Most casting strikes me as too old - Watson was the older of the pair, and he was probably in his late twenties in STUD #
- 17:40 @labelle_rebelle Or in his early thirties (sorry, didn't realise it'd cut that bit off). Either way, many depictions have him much older #
- 17:47 @labelle_rebelle ...Oops? ^^;; #
- 18:03 @labelle_rebe
lle He seriously is, yeah. Though he never wore ties on nights for obvious reasons, lol. XDD # - 21:34 @hurricanewinds Indeed!! #
- 22:30 Blah, off to work to do... nothing of significance. Sigh. #
- 23:23 I'm not freezing at work tonight! Yay! #
- 01:05 So this article I'm reading in the Herald right now refers to 'the Orient'. #
- 01:18 Also, an article about a rape trial that includes no victim-blaming (as far as I can see). Joy! #
- 05:53 Not quite sure how I feel about 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' quite yet, and I've finished four phases of it. Hmmmmm. #
- 16:39 @ladykittykat DDDDD: What's going on? #
- 17:09 @ladykittykat DDD: I'd totally resent it, too. You're an awesome cook, and (from what I saw lol) as awesome wifey for our Denise. :) #
- 02:33 Yay for Tim's night! #
- 03:04 And for once dayshift actually saved doughnuts for us! Woot! #
- 03:32 Damn it, work, why must it be so freaking cold in here?! #
- 06:22 Oh, look, we're off early. For about the bajillionth time. Sigh. #
- 15:46 Sewing patches on my work pants, woo. Though they are awesome: one has variegated green swirlies and the other has purple swirlies. :D #
- 17:55 It's East Coast night at the campus bar tonight, but I can't go because I have to work. Sadface! D: #
- 03:33 @hurricanewinds I know, haha. You're so cute! #
- 03:34 @cupholder189 Well, some people more than others, like anything else in the world, but yeah, lol. #
- 10:52 @ladykittykat I guess she doesn't care about the "don't MacGyver in the house" rule, haha. #
- 14:54 Today in Victorian Lit: the clitoris as represented in lesbian love poems #
- 14:59 Also: vaginal lips, and female arousal without penetrative imagery. #
- 15:04 Also also: female orgasms. I love this class. #
- 16:18 @cupholder189 Yep, pretty much continuing with the same opinion, haha. #
- 16:23 @cupholder189 I don't have the foggiest clue what's happened recently, but I can't imagine it improving my opinion of Sasu-butt. XD #
- 17:12 @beautydreaming Haha, awesome. XD #
- 19:01 Dude, the guy in the apartment next to mine is cooking and it smells soooooo good. Mmmm, garlic and onions... *drools* #
- 22:32 I REALLY hope there's actually something to do at work tonight. *scarpers* #
- 22:57 Yeah, so much for that. D: #
- 04:08 @beautydreaming I love it! <3<3 #
- 09:07 @jhameia I very much agree with that entry, Jha. "Fixing [my]self up" is patently unnecessary. #
- 09:21 @jhameia WTF! Srsly? That's weeeiiiiird. #
- 10:24 @hurricanewinds That's awesome. XD And if Mish got a Twitter, she could be the Twinja of the Nish. #
- 11:18 I have leases! #
- 11:39 @beautydreaming Well, I also signed an interim lease, so we are totes fer srs getting it, we just want a couple more roommates, lol. XD #
- 11:40 @hurricanewinds Nono, I haz demz! #
- 11:42 @labelle_rebelle lol #
- 12:26 I get to see my baby cousin (once removed or something, admittedly) this evening! Yay baby! :D #
- 13:02 @cupholder189 What, seeing the baby? It hasn't happened yet, lol. #
- 13:11
@cupholder189 Oh, haha, dur. My brain, she is still asleep. XD # - 14:25 @cupholder189 I will. Yay baby! #
- 15:15 @labelle_rebelle Did she actually hang up on purpose, or was she trying to put you on hold? #
- 15:17 @labelle_rebelle Ah. Do you remember her name? Call back and make a complaint about it. #
- 15:28 @labelle_rebelle Ah, gotcha. #
- 16:5
5 About to see baby!! # - 18:20 Baby is adorable!! Beyond adorable!! #
- 21:00 Boooo for old doughnuts! D: #
- 21:45 @hurricanewinds I know, lol. #
- 21:46 @labelle_rebelle I bought a doughnut. It was all dry and very definitely from way earlier today. #
- 21:51 Baby was super adorable and cuddly and playfuuuuul! Yay baby! (Pics forthcoming, once I get them from baby's mum. :D) #
- 22:33 @cupholder189 Accurate enough, lol. Stereotypes become stereotypes for a reason, after all. #
- 03:06 @beautydreaming Oh dear. No fun there. *HUG* #
- 14:19 Today in Victorian Lit: Sex. As per usual. XDDD #
- 14:44 @hurricanewinds Indeed! And now he's talking about lesbians. And a aunt/niece couple who wrote under a male pseudonym ("Michael Field"). #
- 15:30 "If a woman is attarcted to another woman, what's missing? ... *Freud voice* Ov carse, de phallus ist missing!" #
- 18:29 @hurricanewinds Oh baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad. That was awful, haha. #
- 18:33 @cupholder189 I'm sorry they seem impersonal! I'd reply to comments left on LJ, though, so please don't think that. #
- 18:41 @cupholder189 lol, awwww, you've said it now, though. :) I missed you, too, but I'm so bad at updating my LJ, this seems to work better. #
- 18:47 @cupholder189 Like a week ago or so? Something like that. The first LJ entry from Twitter was the same day I joined up. #
- 18:48 @hurricanewinds Please yes! #
- 18:55 @cupholder189 A lot of the time, yeah. I'm updating from my computer right now, but I mostly update from my phone, especially from work. #
- 18:57 @cupholder189 I love my cell phone. I even have international text messaging. :D #
- 19:00 Tomorrow in Celtic Folklore: analysing a Gaelic version of Snow White. Woooo! #
- 19:10 @cupholder189 Well, this version is much older than the Grimm brothers version, which is the version of the story that Disney used. #
- 19:23 @cupholder189 Some day when I have a little more time I can transcribe this version of the story for you. It'd just take me like an hour. #
- 19:27 @cupholder189 Actually, it's the sort of thing I enjoy doing while watching a movie or something, so it's no trouble at all. :) #
- 19:36 @cupholder189 Well, with movies I know very well, I usually do something else at the same time because then I feel productive, haha. #
- 20:17 @cupholder189 I am, again, way, waaay behind on Naruto (lol), though I plan to catch up over Reading Week. So right now, I have no idea. XD #
- 21:00 Curling up to read under warm, fuzzy blankets on a cold night is absolute bliss. :D #
- 21:01 @beautydreaming Awwww! *cuddles you both* #
- 21:17 @labelle_rebelle If it makes you feel any better, it IS class reading that I'm doing - "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" for Victorian Lit. #
- 21:41 @beautydreaming Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww. *pets her* #
- 21:42 @hurricanewinds Preeeeeeeecisely! #
- 21:42 @hurricanewinds No, not really. #
- 00:47 So way beyond unimpressed with Head Office right now. Liek woah. #
- 07:31 @ladykittykat Yes you are. :D We treat curling just like it's a real sport! (Since it is!) #
- 10:51 @labelle_rebelle It doesn't really effect you since you work cash - HO decided to cut my WACOs in half, which is ARGH and I am unimpressed. #
- 11:34 @labelle_rebelle They're little bins in the back for when most of the case will go out but not all. They're always full, but now I've <space #
- 13:36</e> @labelle_rebelle Also very, very annoying. #
- 14:14 Today in Celtic Folklore: English class! XDDD #
- 14:25 @beautydreaming Aww, poor Denise's finger. #
- 14:51 Also: Là Féill Brìde sona dhuibh! #
- 16:08 @labelle_rebelle Yay pop culture comparisons! #
- 16:11 @labelle_rebelle Pour l'assimilation en française, veuillez appuyez sur 'deux' #
- 16:28 Me? No, I got it from a comedy routine - Leah got it from me. :D #
- 16:29 Hey Johnny Depp: I am thoroughly unimpressed here: thefeministtexican.wordpress.com/2010/01/2
9/johnny-johnny-wtf/ # - 19:20 About to watch "Straightlaced: How Gender's Got Us All Tied Up" with Shannon. Looks awesome and interesting, so I'm looking forward to it. #
- 20:26 Oh. My. God. That was AMAZING. I want to show it to my mother. Like, a lot. @beautydreaming: If you get a chance, totally watch this. <3 #
- 20:54 @labelle_rebelle The movie wasn't just about gender, but also sexuality, and since that's a BIG sticking point in our relationship... yeah. #
- 02:00 Ick, more thoroughly chewed gum left on my shelves.
Also, I wish there was actual work to do. Sigh. So bored. # - 03:00 Hey, dayshift, how about you order me some bloody frigging stock? I'm sick of staring at all the empty holes and having nothing to do. #
- 04:30 Srsly, folks, order me some stock. Please? Pretty please?
... Pretty please with a cherry on top? # - 07:20 @labelle_rebelle *grins* #
- 07:21 @beautydreaming I like it even more now that's I've seen a picture of the whole thing. It's soooooo awesome. *snugs you* #
- 07:22 @beautydreaming Also I apparently fail at typing at seven in the morning after finishign work. #
- 10:36 @labelle_rebelle They also have to have ordered it for it to come in on a truck. Which they haven't. We CAN get new stock right now. #
- 16:11 @beautydreaming Wha huh? It cut you off part way through. #
- 21:16 @beautydreaming What did you coworkers think of your new and awesome hair? #
- 03:37 Tree Lobsters! #36 Couple Thoughts - bit.ly/91QVrK
These lobsters kill me in all the best ways. # - 09:05 @labelle_rebelle Do you know which cashier? And was he the boy in the really, really bad car accident last week and had his legs amputated? #
- 13:59 @labelle_rebelle Jesus, that's awful! Just... really terrible. D: #
- 16:12 @labelle_rebelle Yeah, I bet. I'm pretty DDDDDDDDDD: over here myself. #
- 17:45 @ladykittykat PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! :D #<
/li> - 17:56 @ladykittykat OKAY. I APPROVE. :D #
- 22:11 @beautydreaming Yay! It's so awesome! I wubs it! #
- 23:13 Essentially nothing to do here tonight. Argh, already so bored. #
- 03:35 Opening your supper expecting to get mac and cheese and getting mould instead sucks ass. #
- 07:41 @beautydreaming You've got me all curious now, too! Damn you! XD #
- 09:49 One of the two potential roomies for the potential house has said no. DDDDDDDDDD: #
- 16:27 Today I fail at words. Yep. #
- 18:15 @labelle_rebelle Who's Kevin Fraser? Should I know him? #
- 18:26 @beautydreaming You guys ar
e so adorable. I miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiss you! #
- 01:10 @beautydreaming What's an iPad? #
- 05:08 @jhameia OMG that's just about the cutest thing I've seen in days, lol. #
- 06:44 @jhameia I saw the Chromatic Buffy the other day and it was awesome! Morgan Freeman would definitely be an awesome Gandalf. :D #
- 08:41 @puppetnin Yeah, minimum wage pretty much sucks ass. They should make it a LIVING wage, not minimum. #
- 10:02 @labelle_rebelle That's awesome,
haha # - 12:06 www.nationalpost.com/story.html?id=24841
39: bit.ly/dyeYY6 via @addthis <- this article is so much DDDDDDDDDDDD: and total BS # - 12:07 (Also, lol, I apparently fail at links, but nevermind.) #
- 12:49 Dear failtastic kerbside parker: don't park you huge truck a foot and a half from the kerb. That is all. #
- 13:06 @beautydreaming YAY LUNCH! I vote Waffleworkshouse, just because the name amuses me. Boo ditched for haircut though. D:
# - 15:46 I have to get around to taking and posting a picture of my now-blue hair at some point. If only I could find my camera battery.... #
- 16:59 @beautydreaming Oh yeah! I totally remember! OM NOM NOM NOM! #
- 23:14 Dear customers: don't leave your thoroughly chewed gum stuck to my shelves. Can you say 'ew'? #
- 00:47 @beautydreaming Mwahahaha, my plan has succeeded! #
- 13:58 Know what's awesome? The idea of a Star Trek TOS and Sherlock Holmes crossover. Spock and Holmes FTW! #
- 17:36 Showed the potential house to two potential roomies; if they both say yes, we've the six people we need! I hope they say yes! *stresses* #
- 23:43 @labelle_rebelle ...Wow, fail. What are they planning to do? #
- 13:26 Oh Rossetti, your 'Nuptial Sleep' fails at being porny when compared even to half the commercials on TV now, lol. #
- 13:47 @labelle_rebelle Wouldn't do things the right way again - instead of binning a couple extra things, they jammed them in where they don't go #
- 13:49 @labelle_rebelle It's a poem I read for Vic Lit - back in the day, it was attacked for its "shameless nakedness", but it's mild nowadays #
- 14:58 Nem in VicLit, re: "pornographic" poetry: "It's pretty tame nowadays, with porn on demand... if I wanna see dripping, I can see _dripping_!" #
- 15:49 ZOMG I GOT 90 ON MY TOLIEN EXAM!!! NIIIIIINETY! HIGHEST EXAM MARK IN THE CLASS!! #
- 16:04 ...I mean, TOLKIEN EXAM! EITHER WAY! YAYNESS! #
- 16:41 @labelle_rebelle Gotta admit I'm pretty proud of myself, too! Nem said I did "extremely well" but I had no idea I did THAT well! #
- 17:35 Totes treating myself to a nommy old fashioned sugar donut (my current fave) from Timmy's. #
- 00:47 @beautydreaming Mwahahaha, my plan has succeeded! #
This is the TEST shipment you asked for
- 17:07 I has a Twitter! Hopwfully I'll be better at updating this than I am at my LJ. I feel silly making teeny LJ posts, so this should work. #
- 17:10 ...Beware: there may be many typos, because I'll be updating from my cell phone a lot. Where I make silly typos all the time. As below, lol #
- 00:33 Dear coworkers on dayshift: do your frakking jobs before I have to start breaking faces or something. #
- 01:33 According to @jhameia, KFCs in Malaysia get metal cutlery. I think I'm jealous. #
- 09:49 Food? Is awesome. #
- 11:44 The weather is rainy
and glum and gross, but at least the air smells pretty! #

It's really, REALLY fucking rude to interrupt me by making inarticulate noises. I don't care who you are or what we're talking about, it's totally fucking rude, particularly when one is trying to have a serious discussion. It's one thing if you're joking around and being silly, it's another if it's a serious conversation.
Also really fucking rude? Sticking your fingers in your ears and going "LA LA LA". How about I do either of these things next time you're talking about something I don't feel like hearing about and we'll see how you feel?
Another important thing to know: WORDS HAVE SPECIFIC MEANINGS. You used Phrase A. Phrase A has Specific Meaning A, but you say that when YOU use Phrase A it should be understood as Specific Meaning B. Guess what? Specific Meaning B has a phrase for it - Phrase B. If you use Phrase A, but mean Specific Meaning B, THEN YOU ARE USING THE WRONG WORD. Full stop.
Yeah, language evolves and all that jazz, but this is NOT a case of that. Phrase A has Specific Meaning A, and Phrase B has Specific Meaning B and ne'er the twain shall meet. Really. Not ever.
EDIT: Also, abortion? Is a humans rights issue, not a religious one.

Look, it's only been a little over a week! And I'm posting again! :)
Saw the new Disney 3D A Christmas Carol last night with
guitarpulsation. I was pretty impressed, actually, because while they added some amusing bits, they actually stayed true to the original story. Including all the dark stuff and the lines like "If they are going to die, then they had better do it then, and decrease the surplus population!" So I went in expecting a very Disney-fied version of the story, the way A Little Mermaid got Disney-fied and fluffed up, and got a completely no-Disney-fied version. So I was very happy with that. :D
I was less happy at one point during the previews - this particular preview started, looking somewhat grim and sci-fi, with a man in a wheelchair rolling onto the screen. The preview follows him in such a way that it's clear that he's the main character, and I'm sitting there going "OMG a movie with a main character in a wheelchair! YAY!"
...Then he transfers his mind/soul/consciousness into the body of an alien/genetic experiment/something or other. And then he's (obviously) not in a wheelchair any more. And I was sad. D: Ohai ableism. ;-;
ALSO! Tomorrow is Transgender Day of Remembrance! So, you know, think about it and what it means. It's important to remember this, and think about WHY it happens. I wish we didn't NEED a day like TDOR, but until the prejudices disappear (lol never sadly) it is something needed.

So I was feeling kind of nostalgic and was bumming around Youtube looking at late eighties/early nineties cartoon themes, and TADA!
THE RACCOONS!
Does anybody else remember this show? Because I was totally a huge fan when I was little. Also, I really love this song, even now. Yeah, I know I'm a big dork.
The actual music video is pretty cool, especially because it's way eighties, haha.
Embedding is disabled for the video or the actual music video, and it seems to be the only copy on Youtube, so you'll have to settle for a link.
