Still here. Always here. Also have an eerie habit of popping in just as people have been talking about me.

Some website monkeying here, some translation there. Also most of the way through a novel...

Dortmund are my German team, and even I felt like standing up and applauding when I saw the news. :'D Felt like something that a player in one of my old Championship Manager teams would pull off.

I suppose my perceptions of what is "fast internet" have probably changed since then. ^^;;; I think we were on 512kbps back then, which seemed lightning quick at the time. I think I downloaded more...

Implying that I had fast internet in 2006. :wacko:

152Mbps download, and (of course) something depressingly low by comparison for upload. :P No idea how fast that is in the grand scheme of things, as I haven't really been keeping on top of current...

Super-fast internet at our new place from tomorrow. ^^;;; No more having to tether my partner's phone to our laptops for net access. ^_^

Read that as a literal penthouse, rather than an issue of the magazine. Was going to say that that was the cheapest house ever. :'D

While I agree that most vegan cheese is appalling and barely even edible (and that's coming from someone who loves most vegan food), a friend actually taught me a really, really good recipe for...

Actually quite yummy according to my partner. But then this is coming from someone who also eats live octopus, fermented skate and cheonggukjang soup (nicknamed "dead body soup" because it smells...

A+++++++

Boo, chickens are adorable! ^_^ And yeah, that's the one that always seems to come up. That and bacon. :'D

My favourite is warnings on packs of peanuts that the product inside may have come into contact with peanuts. I know that it's probably a standard warning that is added to everything, but I weep at...

Eep, no good. Hope sleep finds you. <3

If that were the case, they need to evolve to be even cuter, because right now it isn't working. :P

I actually don't remember what meat tastes like at all at this point. Fish I ate occasionally...

Blah blah something about meat being murder and you having the blood of millions of innocents on your hands. Possibly followed with the most brutal images of slaughterhouses that Google can find....

There's that Stargazer JRPG for the NES that has invisible towns, a save system that doesn't hold any of the levels and stats you've amassed, and random tiles on every map that will warp you...

Didn't really get why XIII was all that bad either. I didn't think it was great, but didn't hate it for what it was. It's linear as hell, but then so was X. I think it could have done with some towns...

No matter what language it's in, I will never unhear the misheard lyrics about "homo men" and "all the lesbians". :'D

Actually, all the songs are as they were in the Japanese game. ^^;;; Voices...

Haha, I'm not as into it as lots of people seem to be either. Actually, I kind of still prefer the two Persona 2 games (though they've aged badly in lots of ways D: ). Still, it's really dialogue...

Playing Persona 4 in Korean. Almost at the point where you first enter the TV. Game timer is six hours. Ouch. Between my slow reading speed, all the words I have to look up, and the fact that it's a...

Wah, hey! It's been ages. ^^;;; How are you? :x

Like... when I was living in Japan, I'm pretty sure that my diet was one of the first things I told people about when I met them. Not because I thought it was particularly interesting or something...

Yeah, I've definitely met a few people who, though not intolerant of others' dietary choices, kind of flaunt their own to draw attention to themselves and make themselves seem interesting or unique,...

Not douchey, but in my experience just the reverse is true. I've rarely run into vegetarians or vegans who are judgemental or unpleasant about others' dietary choices (outside of groups like PETA who...
