eGGie news

to mr. commenter critter...

and you know why that happened?

it's 'cause i have psychotic psychic tendencies!

isn't that great?

but don't tell nobody, 'kay?

it's a secret. :P

~*~

after hanging around on youtube and finding such nifty videos, i decided to see what other wonderful video sites i could find.

go me.

while g000gle video is relatively new, they do seem to have quite a bit of content (mostly 'cause they rip it off of everyone else's websites!). unfortunately, they don't much like other people to have 'their' content as well. (the greedy, thieving bastards!)

but since i'm a tenacious eGGie i went in search of a way to download and keep mean ol' g000gleheads videos!

and i found one!

neener, neener, neener!

BIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!! :P

found this most nifty of sites that saves the videos to someplace on your computer with the proper name and file extension where the dumb ol' g000gle video player can't say "delete our file from the silly downloader's computer when it's finished!"

if anybody cares, i'm doing my happy little eGGie dance now — knowing that i've contributed to pulling one over on the evil that is g000gle.

eGGie note: you'll need to have a real honest-to-dogness flv player on your computer if you want to play the videos back later.

eGGie note number 2: ignore all the silly stuff about downloading the video manually from the g000gle video page. it still uses the g000gle video player! fooey on that!

i'm being difficult, aren't i?

what can i say?

i not trust g000gle enough to install their silly player, and i hate being forced to use proprietary software!

~*~

in other news: some of them there videos are pretty dang big!

so make sure you gots plenty of hard drive space! 'kay?

:P

currently playing: vs (versus?) by misona

i think that might actually qualify as jrock, how unusual!

i still think there's a conspiracy to flood the japanese market with jpop — at the expense of all other genres.

how sad.

~*~

you know what?

i could probably spend entirely too much time watching videos.

thank the almighty froGGie that i have dsl! ^_^

~*~

in case anybody cares: i've started referring to the digital time keeping contraption that resides near my bed place as 'clock-chan'.

isn't that nice?

and in case you were wondering: tokei is japanese for clock ... mezamashi-dokei is japanese for alarm clock. (yeah, i had to look that up. :P )

hmmm... tokei-chan has a nice ring to it, but mezamashi-dokei-chan is a bit wordy.

though... mega-mushi-doki-doki sounds kinda fun! (that's romantical eGGie speak, of the overly-squishy kind.)

~*~

for future reference: if you ever hear someone speaking in a manner that resembles the ramblings found on this bloGGie, you can say that they are speaking eGGiequintly — just so you know.

~*~

i actually (somewhat) put a little thought into this post, so i certainly do hope that you enjoy this to the best of your most profound abilities... or something.

bon-voy-ah-gee lil' blog!

lah! it's me again!

eye-muh duh-eye-in!

eye-muh duh-eye-in!

sad, ain't it?

about the time i was going to prepare my berry own foodstuffs the evil fat guy returned!

ohz-noz! :O

then he went and ruined the kitchen place again!

the bastard!

...

i finally managed to locate my hazmat suit and crawled through all the carnage to the oven...

at least most of the icky smell is gone.

...

i really don't understand how someone that has been around as long as the evil fat guy can not know how to cook at his age. it's pathetic really. no matter what he attempts to cook, it always ends up burnt, really burnt, with lots of smoke.

a few weeks ago he was 'cooking' something that i'm sure was toxic before it ever caught fire. it was one of the times (recent anyway) that i can recall wanting to go on a homicidal rampage and eviscerate the cause of my current mood.

i actually had to air out the house before i did something that i'm sure he'd regret in the next life.

stupid bastard.

hmmm... i used that word twice already.

neat.

~*~


blah.

while i'm waiting for the oven to finish baking my poor little potato sticks i'll see if i can remember anything even remotely amusing to type...

...

...

hmmmm...

uh, i got so bored that i started reading naruto fanfiction.

well, uh, some of it's not bad. thankfully there are some fanfic authors that seem to want to actually accomplish something (as opposed to the anime/manga, that tend to drag things on forever, and ever, and ever...), which is nice.

the one thing that really annoys me about the canon storyline is naruto himself. he's been through a lot, a whole lot, but it apparently isn't enough to actually cause him to mature in even the smallest way. he's emotionally retarded, severely short-sighted, and more often than not, a complete moron. you would think that after a few dozen or so near death experiences that it would do something to make him open his eyes.

oh well.

of course, it's also nice when someone actually does something about all the semi-romantic tension that is part of canon. it's not that they need to be serious at their age, or maybe they do. since it is a ninja story, i imagine a lot of them have rather short life spans. perhaps they actually marry at an earlier age? i don't know. the whole story is a weird mix of modern technology and what might be considered feudal japan.

there's also the fact that since it's a ninja story, i tend to skip over a lot of it. i mean, some of the characters are very likeable, but the situations that occur can be entirely too graphic and well... bleh!

on the other hand (depending on my mood and stuff), reading about silly human critters getting chopped up, blown up, and other things that would usually cause me to throw up (that's a lot of ups ain't it?) can do wonders for my emotional well-being. :P

~*~

just so you know, i have eaten and the chances of me going eGGie on a certain evil fat guy have been greatly reduced.

of course, i may still whack him in the head with a brick.

~*~

as i was saying...

while i wouldn't want to live in the naruto world place, some of the things that happen there are pretty nifty. well, the whole ninja magic thing is at least. seriously, who wouldn't want to be able to blow a giant fireball at somebody that looked at you the wrong way? i know i'd enjoy it. of course, turning them into a block-o-ice beforehand could be fun as well.

it's times like these that give me pause... i'm pausing and stuff... and make me think that maybe, just maybe i might have a mean streak, but then i remember that human critters tend to be evil incarnate and i feel all better. :P

there are actually quite a few naruto stories at ffnet that don't suck, and some of them are rather spiffy even. (isn't spiffy just the most bestest word?)

weird, huh?

ffnet is a pretty good place to go for practically any type of fanfiction, and amateur fiction in general. they rarely discriminate, and they have a pretty good ratings/category system to keep track of everything.

isn't that nice?

~*~

on that note i think i'll go read or something.

bai bai lil' blog!

anybody miss me?

:P

anywho, i was watching this silly moosic video earlier and i was like o_O;

so i thought i'd share it with ya! (or a screen capture at least. :P )

aren't i just the nicest?
