the quizzes are back

darn you for getting me started again, emily.

Paladin You scored 85 Holy, 57 Tactful, 47 Natural, and 45 Arcane!

Hahah... I once heard you described as a paragon of chivalry and virtue, but just because you fight (hard) for a God doesn't mean you're virtuous in society's eyes. Especially because in this world as you could just as easily be an anti-paladin, so don't let it get to your head. That warning aside, you are pretty awesome... you are a knight in the Templar style. You are almost always found riding around on a glistening (or nightmarish, your choice) horse, with impeccibly shined armor sparkling in the ray of sunshine that God makes sure never leaves your side, with your sword making neatly coreographed swishing motions, and caught amongst a cloud of blood and bits of non-believers that splatters everything 10 yards around you save your armor and your achingly-white-toothed fanatic smile. Is there any creature of God more dangerous than the single-minded paladin riding around, smiting everything it sees?.... Thank God (most of) you are on our side. No, literally.

The Harlequin You scored 44% Cardinal, 38% Monk, 29% Lady, and 48% Knight!

You are a mystery, a jack-of-all-trades. You have the king's ear, but also listen to murmurings of the common folk. You believe in the value of force and also literature. Truly you are the puzzlement of the age.

Comfy & Conservative You spent $800000, and $450000 of it is certainly equitable.

Your savings account is strong since you have left a considerable amount of your money unspent, which is good should any problems arise with your new purchases. You can also use the savings to invest if you so choose.

not sure about this one, but sounds good to me:

Ares Gods! You scored 32!

You are most like Ares, the god of war and conflict! Often portayed as a warrior, Ares was impressed with his own stegnth and skills. His throne on Mount Olympus was covered in human skins. Big, tough and brawny. Today he'd probably be a jock who likes to show off. Hey, that's you!

i love this show! too bad its been so long since i've watched most of it. and i've only seen one episode of season 8, so it was all guesses on those questions.

Lt. Colonel Congratulations! You scored 72!

Some say you would have a unhealthy obsession with the show, but you don't care. Get some civilians together and share your love of the show.

i'm just a really good guesser. i swear.

Great Gamer GM says drop 2d10, aanndd... you roll 57% !

Not too bad- not too bad at all. You're not exactly a first generation gamer, and you probably have other hobbies besides rolling dice and slaughtering orcs, but you've managed to collect enough knowledge to impress even the most experienced gamer. Pull out a few more nights for gaming and spend some more time with the obscure books, soon you're well on your way to becomming the Ultimate Gamer.

--update--

knowledge is apparently more than just power...

Vocabulary Vixen! Congratulations! You got 17 correct answers!

You sexy thing! You probably own a book or two. You can communicate in complete thoughts and your knuckles don't drag while walking down the street. Now promise me you will use your word power for good not for evil.

High Emperor Enjoy your life as a....110!!!

Your Medeival responsibility is to be a high lord of civilization. You have cruel tendencies, but generally tend to know what is best for others. That is because the masses are stupid, selfish pieces of shit who don't really know anything about... well, anything! So when you take power, PLEASE revoke the people's right to vote!

i'll buy that theory

thanks to wizbang for pointing out a very interesting post at willisms, discussing the "babe theory of political movements." i have to say, they seem to have a pretty good point. maybe it makes me shallow, but wouldn't you (unless you're a girl, or gay) want to follow them? my personal favorite is the one shown below:


(click picture for more from willisms)

does this make me shallow? maybe. but since there were more people in beirut (around 800,000) protesting the syrian occupation of lebannon than there were around the world protesting on the 2 year "anniversary" of the start of the war in iraq, i think it makes me a realist. but whether you agree with me or not, you should definitely check out the original post; like i said, its a very interesting theory.

up and running?

the answer is a definite maybe. the computer help desk here at whitworth attached the following note to my computer (rough quote): "We do not support fixing this type of problem. Windows needs a rebuild." which i think just meant that they had no clue what was wrong.

so i reinstalled windows. again. that's about 3 times now in as many weeks. but i think it actually worked this time. the first thing i did after reconnecting to the internet was to reinstall the whitworth symantec antivirus client, along with ad-aware and spybot. they didn't pick up anything major, so i think i'm good. as we speak (or as i type, or whatever... figure of speech and all that), taskmanager and msconfig are working again, which is glorious.

and now, i'm off to finish some reading and watch "the incredibles", which i hear is a great movie. farewell for now.

bwahahaha!

WISE can eat it.

this one is for you, david briggs

somebody on this post definitely made reference to goatse. for those of you who don't have a clue what that is, i'm with kevin: you don't want to know.

quote of the moment

"Oderint dum metuant" (Let them hate, as long as they fear); this just happens to fit very nicely on the new rott shirts. they're pretty cool, but my personal favorite is this one.

home at last

All days that are today are days that Spring Break starts
All days that are this day are days that are today
------------------------------------------------------
All days that are this day are days that Spring Break starts => AAA-1 (valid)

very sloppy, and pretty much useless, but i figured hey, what the heck. may as well put all that logic stuff i crammed into my head to some use.

as the subject line suggests, i am now home for spring break. though i would have preferred having it later in the semester, i was definitely ready for some time off from school. on that note, i am now going to bed, and getting up whenever i feel like it. g'night all.

more ridiculousity

there's been a lot of it over the last few days, but i think this has to be some of my favorite: IKEA is a bunch of sexist bastards. either that, or some PC police got bored.

h/t michelle malkin

posting again?

it can only mean one thing: i have homework that i don't want to do. well, technically its a midterm paper, but whatever. i still don't want to do it.

on that note, why is it that republicans are constantly being called evil, etc.? it seems to me that the really angry people are democrats, like howard dean and this guy from florida.

h/t wizbang

finally

i finally gave up and took my compy into computer services today. i'm hoping i'll have it back before spring break, but considering whitworth's record with that, it's probably not going to happen. but, on the bright side, its free.

alright, we're famous!

not necessarily in a good way, though.

so much for that homework thing?

why must my friends be such huge nerds? and why must i be so similar to them?

Take the quiz at dicepool.com

i think the description of me is a bit off, but i was actually pulling for the d6. let the humiliation begin.

i'll take things that don't work for $400, alex

"this object has been consistently raped, ravaged, and exploited by various viruses and spyware over the last several weeks. as such, it is slowly ceasing to work, and will be taken in to be fixed in the near future."

"what is daniel's computer?"

"that is absolutely correct. $400 and control of the board go to you, and our pity goes to daniel. or maybe his computer; we're not sure which one is worse off."

i think my computer is worse off than i am. its sole purpose in "life" is to compute, and if it doesn't have that, it doesn't have anything. on the other hand, without my computer's ability to compute, i might actually be able to get some homework done instead of playing KOTOR 2 for hours on end.

again with the stupid quizzes

and yet i keep taking them.

I taste like Beef. I taste like beef. I'm probably made of beef. You are what you eat, they say, and if the title didn't mean something else, I would be a beefeater. I think red meat is good for you. Puts hair on your chest. What Flavour Are You?

I am a Gauntlet Adventurer. I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?

I am a Crown. I'm regal and proud. People instinctively follow my lead, so I don't even have to try. Sometimes it's a drag. What Sort of Hat Are You?

and now, back to more important things. like homework.

another neat trick

is cutting the inside of your nose while shaving. i'm still not entirely sure how i pulled that one off.

random note

i found this article very amusing.

i also found this quote very amusing: "Whoa! Crap. That is an angry fish." --Andrew

i do not, however, find the homework that i still need to do very amusing at all.

no, not really

as evidenced by my little friend here...


not cool. not cool at all.

its better, i think

we'll find out in a bit. my computer, as i've complained about on numerous occasions, was experiencing technical difficulties. so, instead of taking it into the computer help desk (last time i did that, they had my computer for 3 days, and all they did was run the fixblaster and fixwelcia tools), i decided it needed a deep clean. so i formatted my hard drive and reinstalled windows. its running a lot smoother now, although for some reason taskmanager still isn't working. if anybody knows what's going on with that, i'd appreciate the help. until then, i'm going to be reinstalling stuff. wish me luck.

i remember doing these

i don't think i ever had quite this much fun, though.
