  1. Thirteen minutes left of 2013!

  2. http://news.yahoo.com/u-judge-strikes-down-utah-39-gay-marriage-003826177.html <--- I must say, of the states to shoot down an amendment banning same-sex marriage, Utah (one of the most conservative states) is one of the last on my mind. (Hopefully, an appeal gets rejected. *fingers crossed*)

      My Facebook newsfeed exploded on that.

  3. I didn't let my main YT account join the whole Google+ circuit, but I let my backup join it instead.

  4. "Toby: 'Henry's broken down!'" "Gordon: 'Don't tell me he needs special coal again!'" "Toby: 'No, Gordon! That was fixed years ago.'" LOL!

      Also they've added too many characters and dumped the older character: duck to oliver as if they never exisited because they wanted female engines. Wtf?

      Series 17 brought back Duck in Henry's Hero and (as a main character) The Thomas Way.

      Oh well, too little too late. I watched some of the reruns but i refuse to watch the show in cgi. It was bad enough they used some cgi in the final season when they used actual train models.

  5. "Butthurt" and "retarded" have several things in common. They indicate that you concede an argument. They're both disgusting slurs (retarded" ableist, "butthurt" homophobic). And they just make the person look unintelligent.

      ^THANK YOU! The one thing that I've noticed on here and elsewhere as of late is that people get offended by shit they clearly don't understand and make up some kind of terminology to make it seem more offensive than it is. The term is mostly (and only) used when someone gets their feelings hurt over something so incredibly stupid like video games or a common thing on here, foamer flame wars.

      To add on top of that, I can't understand how it strictly correlates to anything of the gay matter, unless of course, said persons don't like women, but that's another story. The term itself has never been used as a homophobic slur of any kind because to use it as one would make no sense at all. People need to stop being so bloody sensitive about dumb things like this, straight up.

      @MHV, Cait: In a way, yes, because that slur objectifies people in such a sick and offensive manner since its inception in the 1990s. Words aren't just words. They dispel or enforce specific kinds of culture. Plus, "butthurt" carries a "Godwin's Law" effect: use it, and you automatically conceded your own opinion.

       

      Don't merely take my word for it. Just like Persephone Magazine, Gawker explains it well, too: http://gawker.com/5965417/on-butthurt

  6. I haven't written for NaNoWriMo in over eight years, and because doing that challenge nearly killed my ability to write fiction altogether, I don't miss it.

  7. >B44 SBS Starts >Waits for the new Brooklyn Bus Map.

  8. Watching Sesame Street's hilarious "Hunger Games" parody tells me how much they care for every single demographic out there. The show's rated TV-Y, but their care for their audience young and old speaks volumes. Hilarious for kids to laugh from the characters' antics, hilarious for the adults because they can understand the references.

  9. It was only a matter of time: Hawaii legalizes same-sex marriage! :D *parties*

  10. Because I refuse to "update" my YouTube account, I won't be able to do anything with my comments (including moderating my own), so comments are disabled.

      f**k it, inactive as of last week, though not like I did anything worth while on it anyway.

  11. What the HELL, Google?! I'm not interested in creating a mandatory Google+ account! YouTube's new commentary system's bullshit!

  14. Any registered Republican with a sense of dignity and respect would never watch or follow Fox News (unless to laugh at the daily bullshit it pours out).

      meh. fine. you don't hear me complaining about msnbc either. i mean letting al sharpton get his own show, really?

      As stated in Peacemak3rs status, I don't really follow mainstream news outlets, and don't see the appeal anymore in this age.

      No one, regardless of idealogy, is as extreme as FOX, though the Huffington Post is shaping up to be the liberal extreme.

  15. Washington Redskins safety Brandon Merriweather is factually terrible as a defender. He can't genuinely TACKLE and has to resort to concussing another player or himself via helmet-to-helmet hits just to take the opponent down.

  16. If you didn't recently, anyone planning to watching the PBS Frontline documentary, "League of Denial: The NFL’s Concussion Crisis"? I am and have it ready for DVR recording.

      it was wonderful for the other teams to give him gifts. the twins one with the broken bats chair was the most creative. boston, i kinda figured it'd be something from the green monster. i hope jeter gets something like this.

      Nah, but I think baseball holds Jeter in the same respect as Mo. It's a mater of when Jeter will ever announce his retirement.

  18. Yankees closer Mariano Rivera's #42 jersey is retired. An honor well deserved for the greatest closer and reliever of all-time and classy individual himself.

  19. I said it before, and I'll say it again. The fanbase doesn't determine the quality of the product. If you lose interest to FIM, Sonic, or any other product because of the fandom, then you were never interested to begin with. Scapegoating a fandom is very stupid and low, no matter the excuse.

      Agreed to a fair extent, however I will add this. In general, disagreement in communities (both offline and online) will lead to some people falling out of common interest either temporary or sometimes even indefinitely. Not to say that the group of members as a whole were responsible for such, though it does happens and personally I do not see such as a basis for criticism, at least in my opinion.

      On the same token if I lost interest in a certain interest or subject I would not cast any amount blame on members of the respective community.

  20. MTA took down the September 2013 bus map updates for Brooklyn and Queens, but I still have them! :D

  21. We got some revised bus maps and schedules headin' your way! http://mta.info/nyct/maps/busbkln.pdf http://mta.info/nyct/maps/busbkln2.pdf 1. The B32 is featured in dark blue. 2. The B15 branch (purple) to the Postal Facility has been cut. 3. The B67 (red) shows its continuous turning through the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The terminal and streets through the revitalized portion of the Yard are featured in the inset. (There is a mistake on the back of the map. It says the B67 meanders through DUMBO and the BNY seven days a week, when it only serves the area part-time during the weekdays.) ——— http://mta.info/nyct/maps/busqns.pdf http://mta.info/nyct/maps/busqns2.pdf 1. The B32 (purple), revised B15 route (red), and B67 extension (light green) are on the map. 2. The Q33 (red) displays its revised northbound terminal at 94th Street. 3. The Q70 LTD (red) has the "LTD" initial beside each symbol along with type on the path of the BQE that reads:
  22. Now to play the Waiting Game for the new Queens and Brooklyn bus maps.
