j'y pense et puis j'oublie

Am I the only one who didn't know about this until it happened? I didn't get any emails and saw no indication on the site that this was going down.

If you're like me and you lost a shit ton of bookmarks/content, you might still be able to export and download them here (that feature was supposed to end on the 23rd just like the transfer option, but it doesn't seem to have yet). You'll get a list of all your links, but they won't be organized by tag or anything.

This is... actually not a real entry (SORRY CINNA), but I got a new AIM screenname.

dramadramaiddy -------> hellooo darlink

Drop me a line here if you want me to add you; comments are screened!

Thanks to Norry I now have a Google Wave account (and... am still trying to figure out how it works, haha), and at the moment I have eight invitations to give away. If anyone on my flist wants one, let me know I'll shoot one off to you!

(ALSO: this is unrelated, but JOIN PLURK. It's like IMing only at lot easier to keep up with.)

Use DailyBooth more often.

Take less pictures that look like this.

In other news, I finally picked up a fifth class, and when that's done, I'll never have to take another science Gen. Ed. again. SO. HAPPY. I really want to take an astronomy class, but all of the ones I've looked at have lab components and there's just no way. I JUST WANT TO TAKE A CLASS WHERE YOU JUST LEARN ABOUT STARS AND BLACK HOLES AND PLANETS AND SHIT, IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK? Ehhhhh.

Me: *connect to internet?*
Internet: *connects!*
Me: Whoo!
Internet: *disconnects itself <3*
Me: D:< *connect to internet*
Internet: lol no
Me: D:

Rinse and repeat about once every five hours. I really need an air card from a better company than Verizon.

Also, this: WHY WOULD YOU EVER.

My mom is addicted to Facebook.

... Or alternately, why I should be kept away from MSN as often as possible; I'm not really sure which.

( Cut for tl;dr and PG-13 tendencies )

Old conversation is old (well, if your definition of "old" is "late January"), but I was browsing the AFC MSN quote thread. Eh.

Argh. I seriously need to stop becoming obsessed with TV shows that I haven't even *seen*. Or, to be more accurate, I need to stop becoming obsessed with *characters* from TV shows that I haven't even seen. And that's all I'm going to say on the matter. YOU CAN DRAW YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS, PEOPLE. 

The second presidential candidate visitor of the year came on Friday- Ron Paul. (A few weeks ago it was John Edwards. Yay, someone I've actually heard of!) I thought he was very meh. I knew next to nothing about him- basically, only what I'd heard from kids at school (WH boys: "He's snarky and crazy and old and senile and wants to OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT! He's THE MAN!"), which, of course, is not likely to be helpful at all (especially since I mostly heard about him from sophomore boys, as evidenced by above quote- which is pretty much word-for-word from Zak, by the way). 
But, yeah, things I learned from Ron Paul: It is possible to use the word 'Constitution' enough times to make your audience want to headdesk. And also, we are apparently not a free society because we have not made abortion illegal. I guess that's more than I learned from John Edwards- from him, I only got that if you throw  the words 'college', 'health care', and 'end the war' around a lot while talking to a crowd of high schoolers, you can sound like you're saying something without actually saying much of anything. Hee, I feel so apathetic right now.

Oh, and Autosave- quit trying to be cute. I've HAD IT with you. Either work, or don't work, but don't start to work and then conk out halfway through the entry, while conveniently leaving the 'last saved at...' thing up so that I think you're working. You have LOST MY TRUST, AUTOSAVE. 
And woah, the tags are taking prompts now. This is new. Now I'll be less likely to accidentally create multiple tags for one subject, and I won't have to go hunting through my gigantic tags list to tag entries! Yay. (Ihavenolife.) 

Anyway, I'm done talking to inanimate objects now. I've got to go and be all LOLZOBSESSION. Tata!

 Michael Wood tomorrow! I'm seriously excited- because I know the talk's going to be interesting, yes, but it's mostly about the hair. And I'd feel pretty stupid for admitting that if my entire class didn't feel the same way. (It's probably a good thing that no one reads this LJ.)

In other news, I hate AOL. Seriously. It's being particularly craptastic today. Grrr. Mostly it's the dial-up (yes, I am one of the three people in the world to still have dial-up)- it keeps having to reconnect every few minutes. And I mean that quite literally. HATE. IT. 

And no, I don't really have anything to say, just that I want to go on AFC but I don't dare because my computer might explode if I have two many browser windows up. It'd be great if I could go on in Intro to Adobe, but the site's blocked because Mrs. Kentner caught me on it last year. *le sigh*
...
Seriously, I don't even know why I'm writing this entry.

I found a hilarious website yesterday, which is pretty much the most wonderful thing ever. It's in Dutch or something, but it's mocking badfic. It's pretty obvious what they're talking about, what with lines like: 

( Foreigners mocking American badfic = SOCOOL. )
All I can say is, HEE. And, BOOKMARKING.
