Solving the Myspace Image Problem

I found it in the Dig and now I'm going to totally abuse the fact that my Photobucket account now offers a gig of space and ten gigs of monthly (I think) bandwidth. That means I'm going to scan random stuff and post it here. I wouldn't transcribe it if I didn't have all this space to abuse, since I'm really lazy.

Giant rats conquer Somerville (!?)



My head hurts due to pen fumes. And there is a mysterious purple stain on the table, which is not as nasty looking as a spill that was where two people are currently sitting. Lucky for them, it's gone.

Scott does a good impersonation of Mr. Fathead that scene.

I think I will do a guide to Kirby's Super Star in the same vein as Slowbeef's guide to Metal Gear 2. It's such a surreal game that it deserves a series of entries devoted to it when it's August and I have nothing better to do than sit around and play video games.

Also, the yoyo is superior to all. Even mirror.

end of the world
There's evidence that one of the mass extinctions was caused by a fairly close gamma ray burst, possibly from a supernova. Three things happen: nitrogen seperates from oxygen in the upper atmosphere, the oxygen reacts with the ozone and annihilates it, causing land creatures and surface-dwelling fish to die a horrible death, the nitrogen reacts with something else and makes fertilizer, and the sky turns brown. Doesn't that make you feel so happy? No? Tough.

In dreams, I can never get on a train (actually, something akin to the exoskeleton of one). It's all very frustrating. But then again, I left Viriconium (you know, the book with Vientiane Avenue in it, to which Tiang said "huh" in our last conversation ever. And the train probably wanted to kill me. So it's fine.

Yes, this is pretty much a filler entry created from the desire to have the mood of Tabris correspond to the one day where my probability of talking to Tiang and one of three things (said three things: the reconciliation, gestalt collapse in an explosion of angst and anthropomorphic choo choo trains, or I don't say anything to her) happens is not zero. Thing three is the most likely thing. Provided it does happen.
