Dumpling chart / Telisport Putsavage?! / Kirk Fonoimoana?! / Jarkel Fanning?!

Sep. 26th, 2019 10:01 pm
glowing_dragon: (Vancouver Canucks hockey!)
PRODUCT WARNING: No more Nivea lotions in my apartment - the pump just suddenly goes down without warning, making it impossible for me to pop it up again!


Today is National Dumpling Day! I called Chrystal at work at 11:40 to see if we were still on for tomorrow's Birthday Dinner #3, and WE ARE! The Canucks played Arizona tonight at 7 in Preseason Game #8 (the last one!), and lost 3-2. Deb said that they could take me out to Korean food tomorrow night, but I'm not free due to the aforementioned plans. Next week on the 4th sounds fine, especially since it's a non-hockey night! I also banned someone from the Fearsome hockey group for typing in very mangled English (it would just annoy me even more throughout the year), and making every comment into some kind of slam freeform poetry.


From the V4F Discord server: Dumpling typology chart - now I want siu mai, hahaha! QUIRKY COINCIDENCE because it's National Dumpling Day today, Sept. 26!




Telisport Putsavage?!




From Julie: Kirk Fonoimoana?!

Brownie or cookie, middle class, Muslim name, hipster or yuppie, love language

May. 19th, 2019 06:36 pm
glowing_dragon: (OMFG Yay!)
Are You a Brownie or a Cookie?

You Are A Cookie!



You are an independent and versatile person. You can roll with life's changes quite well.
You are resilient and optimistic. You see the glass of milk as half full, even if you've been burned before.

You are big on boundaries - what's yours is yours, and you aren't about to share what you have your heart set on.
That being said, you do live a life of abundance and have extra on hand for others. Who ever bakes just one cookie?


Are You Middle Class?

You Are Not Middle Class!



When it comes to social status, you are an outlier. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing at all.
You may be upper class or even out of sight rich - in which case, congratulations to you!

You may be working class or even poor, and that’s fine as well. Maybe you’re still working your way up in the world.
Or another possibility is that you’re just not willing to play the status game. No matter what, people wouldn’t call you average!


What's Your Muslim Name?

Your Muslim Name Is: Saesha Zeba!



Kindness is a mark of faith, and whoever is not kind has no faith.


Are You a Hipster or a Yuppie?

You Are A Hipster!



You like the best things in life, but they aren't always the finest things in life. You value quality and craftsmanship.
You are an artsy person, and you're always dabbling in something. You're too creative to be a straight up consumer.

You are the type who is cool without trying. You just seem to sense a trend is in the air before it becomes mainstream.
You probably wouldn't call yourself a hipster, but you know deep down that you're a little hip. It's just effortless for you.


What's Your Love Language?

Your Love Language is Quality Time!



For you, the best things about love are indeed free. You just simply like being with your partner.
You'd think that time together would be the easiest thing in the world, but true quality time is a rare gift... one you totally appreciate.

You love to receive a little undivided attention. No devices allowed! You value time just talking and connecting with your sweetie.
Even making dinner together and watching a movie can be an amazing night for you. It's all about the company!

ERIC HO! / Great Value All-Beef Meat Lasagna, old purchases, and overtime!

Mar. 30th, 2019 10:11 pm
glowing_dragon: (Vancouver Canucks hockey!)
After COFFEE TIME, Eric Ho called to confirm the time he was coming over to watch a lot of hockey, so I had to take a shower! I had the parking pass, bottled water, the Lindt caramel Easter eggs, Lindt Blueberries and Cream / Strawberries and Cream / Milk and White Spring Edition chocolate truffles, the Russell Stover praline chocolates assortment, the Laura Secord peanut-free chocolate assortment, and the Kit-Kat Senses hazelnut chocolate assortment ready for him in a huge Ziploc bag, plus smaller ones as appropriate. That was in a Price Smart plastic bag since I also had Ferrero Rocher hazelnut Easter eggs and Easter Egg Oreo cookies for him. Yes, of course we could have Deb's frozen Great Value All-Beef meat lasagna for dinner, plus a lot of snacks! I also got him to help open my eyedrops and buy me some heavy bottled water (a 24-pack for the rounded-down price of $5) while he was out anyway, and all I had to do was text him my Price Smart card number and address. Phew!

He got here at 3:25 and quickly settled in to watch some Blue Jays baseball. Yes, he definitely thanked me for all the stuff mentioned above! We talked about Korean LEAGUE OF LEGENDS players, always being online, Steph, the Habs and the playoffs, ARE YOU SHUTTING ME?, the Mi Goreng chips (which he thinks are "wicked"), Winnipeg Jets playing the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators playing the Toronto Maple Leafs, and the Canadian dollar falling. Also spoke on Jim Hughson, CBC After Hours (Markstrom / Josh Leivo / Tyler Seguin), Sportspage, Sportsnet Pacific, ownership, excitement, my being able to text him at any time for things like heavy bottled water, Facebook tagging (which he's cool with), my online hockey fan friends (don't remind me of Jimmy...), Quinn Hughes, April Fool's Day (ugh), and opening the living room window. I'm well aware that he thinks my apartment is too warm!

Conversed about the ENDLESS CONSTRUCTION ZONE and closures around here, Google, pay-per-view Canucks games, Hockey Night in Canada / Hockey Day in Canada, the Whitecaps soccer game and the origins of the Southsiders nickname, long-range planning for his birthday (a Thursday - he enjoyed hanging out with me and white Eric last year at Boston Pizza) and Christon's wedding at the Blundell Church / the nearby Kirin, and HOCKEYVILLE. Discussed my new Reddit friends, his lupus making him overheat easily (he's already transitioned to a Toronto Blue Jays T-shirt and wondered if my DRAGON HOODIE was too hot for me - NOPE!), the Korean BBQ chips, the Salsitas, his ranting, bumping into "whoever" (Mike - don't be so vague!), Trudeau, "injury time / stoppage time" in soccer (where they add on time to the game based on injury recovery time DURING the game - can't imagine that in hockey or football), the old days going to Nathan's basement, "ineptitude" being a "big word" for 9:35 at night, his doing the dishes, and his liking to hang out with me. The Canucks played the Stars at 7 tonight... the game went to overtime plus a shootout, and Vancouver won 3-2! At least Eric Ho could go home happy, but he didn't like that the shootout went so long because he has to work tomorrow.

I like these hangouts from the point of view of updated blogging and not having to wait till I go home to start. YAY! Now I just need to relax from constant talking and vagueness!

Most rounds in an NHL shootout: 20?! Most hockey OT periods ever: Eight in the Norwegian League, surpassing the 1936 NHL record of six?!


Great Value All-Beef Meat Lasagna, kindly given to me by Deb on APPRECIATE A DRAGON DAY!

JIMMY BLOCKING ME?! / MUCH SO MORE warmth and friendliness?! / A wide-screen, flat-panel Happy Box?!

Nov. 29th, 2018 09:40 pm
glowing_dragon: (Vancouver Canucks hockey!)
After COFFEE TIME, Barry picked me up at 11:10 so we could go to Dr. Wise's office again at noon. I got home at 1:45 with a prescription for eyedrops and gels (Lotemax Gel (0.5%), Prolensa [0.07% sodium!], Moxifloxacin HCL 0.5%) after a LOT of waiting since Dr. Wise was running "a bit" behind: at least I won't be nearsighted after the surgery! The other eye should match, but later on! (and I'll need new reading glasses then)

I got home to find certain Facebook messages from the usual suspect involving Tommy; okay then, do what you gotta do, but I have complied with the emotionless request which had bad grammar! THE POST WAS FROM JULY 30, AND IT IS NOW NOVEMBER 29! COME ON! I CAN ALSO VENT IF NEED BE! Now I have thrown away the old GIBSON owl coffee mug, Irish Spring bar soap, Softsoap pomegranate and mango liquid soap, yellow LifeCandy shower pouf, Dial Coconut Milk body wash, and the Finesse Extra Body shampoo and conditioner.

I've replaced them with another yellow LifeCandy shower pouf and GIBSON owl coffee mug, the orange Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser rehydration shampoo and conditioner with Marula Oil, Softsoap Vanilla Brown Sugar liquid soap, and the Dial For Men Maximum Moisture body wash. I also had to replace Scotties Lotion Kleenex boxes, my GUM toothbrush, Arm and Hammer toothpaste, GOODY toothbrush cover, and a toilet paper roll anyway. The Canucks played the Knights at 7 tonight, and lost 4-3. Blah!


From Lancer on Youtube: A man outside the Yado Inn to Lucas and Boney in early Chapter 4: "The Yado Inn had MUCH SO MORE warmth and friendliness up until three years ago..."




Lucas and Boney drop by Paul and Linda's house in Chapter 4: A wide-screen, flat-panel thing. Is it a type of Happy Box?

May. 5th, 2018 10:22 pm
glowing_dragon: (Bert and Ernie)
I emailed Eric a reminder about the new(er) computer and the subsequent electronics recycling, and he emailed me back with detailed instructions on how to take a screenshot with Snipping Tool (so convenient!) of the System Tools, so he could compare with what was currently available. I definitely appreciated that, and he emailed me back with a Best Buy link! I do have just enough cash for that around here.

Then Christon emailed a bunch of us with an impromptu Sunday (but Monday) Dinner Evite at Jeremy's for May 21 with Thai or Vietnamese food... it's been a while, so it's time to do our semi-annual catchup, as I said in my RSVP! Lots of people time on that long weekend, so I'd better have lots of solitude after that till the Wednesday!


Queensy Menig?!




From Julie: Ay'Den?! What's with that totally unnecessary apostrophe?!




From Julie: Marvel is a woman?! I can see it as a boy name, BARELY!




From Julie: Sherrye?! SHERRY does not need an E on the end!

glowing_dragon: (Default)
I went out at 3:15 on a 401 to London Drugs since I got my tax refund in my bank account. Mailed an Easter card and assorted stickers to Fraser and Henry, and mailed a birthday card to Vanessa in Langley. I got two small reusable bags and one large reusable bag for Jimmy (all with the 100th Anniversary design and logo), sponges, NEW PopCorners Smokin' Jalapeno with White Cheddar crisps, Dawn dish detergent x2 (lemon and original), L'Oréal Men Expert hair products x3 (glycerin 3 in 1 / taurine and arginine shampoo / ceramide shampoo and conditioner), and NEW Scrub Daddy sponges and scrubbers. Just managed to get the 407 back home at 3:45, too!

Remembrance Day and Jon's engineered birthday lunch at Pizzeria Barbarella!

Nov. 11th, 2017 05:01 pm
glowing_dragon: (Devilish Smile)
After COFFEE TIME / SHOWER TIME (greasy hair strikes again!), and emailing (yesterday) / calling (today) Eric to see if he could give me a ride home from that Wo's dinner tomorrow (yes - and I was polite to Veronica when she said that Eric was on his way out the door at 9:50), I had to go for a birthday lunch for Jon at Pizzeria Barbarella on Broadway which I suspect Mom engineered. I had the Advent calendars and scary Halloween candy (ScAero / Scaries / Ghostly Kit-Kat / Coffin Crisp) for Ayler and Hiero, plus the Korean BBQ chips. No guilt since I planned to be late because of his shenanigans around MY birthday! I was actually the first one there by two minutes.

Ayler and Hiero told me about the ceremony that they attended, and Ayler asked if I'd gone to one. Nope, because I'd left the house at 11:15! Steph had had to wake Henry up from his nap (and Mom had walked from her place to the AirBnb), so they were late. Henry likes eye contact and faces, so he can stare at you with those big eyes and stick his tongue out, haha. We had five different kinds of pizza, I read a Dragon and Tea book to Fraser, we caught up on family news, Ayler asked whether he could touch my red bling sweater, Ayler asked when Henry would be various ages, I played CRASH BOOM BANG with Fraser and his toy truck / toy buses, we discussed Mom's disappointment that Henry hadn't been a girl, and the boys had fun running around (even though we said no) and pretending to be a train. Got home at 2:15 thanks to Steph giving me a ride home since both boys were napping in their carseats! I'm sure Hiero and Fraser could be good friends later in life, but maybe not computer penpals since SOMEONE isn't allowed screen time...


Random stuff from Mom and Dad, crammed in a small Valentaine Mondo knapsack: a thin light green Studio by Liz Claiborne quasi-tank top, a thin light green Studio by Liz Claiborne vest, a thin blue-gray Fansatu T-shirt (in what world is this XXL?!), a black and dark grey Far West jacket, a blue Wind River shirt, a blue decorative button-up Koret vest, an Alfred Dunner striped thin sweater, Koret brown pants, a Café Brontë sweet fruit and oat cookie, and GIM roasted seasoned seaweed x2.

FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Bestiary, #1-312!

Oct. 18th, 2017 08:36 pm
glowing_dragon: (OMFG Yay!)
FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Bestiary!


THIS ENTRY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE NON-ALIGNED TAGS.


This is the complete bestiary for FINAL FANTASY 5 SPOOF, and all screenshots are from my own playthrough. I'd like to say that this GameFAQs bestiary document helped me a lot; thank you! (as did this one, for more precise directions in certain places) Also, this walkthrough helped me a lot, too! Actually, I was tired of suffering through emulator slowness and game glitches x8, so input a code for a 100% complete Bestiary. These maps will help, since the world map DOESN'T FUCKING WORK IN THIS GAME!

This is a good RPG Classics page for Pro Action Replay codes!

CHECK THE MAP WITH THE Y BUTTON, NOT THE R BUTTON!

Fire-Powered Ship puzzle directions.


Notes to self: Activate the All Characters Have All Abilities code, and then TAKE IT OFF, or else the game will get incredibly frustratingly SLOW. Also, take all codes off before going to the Big Bridge, or attempting to find the Phantom Village! VISHNU VEST EQUIPMENT! Speaking of equipment, EQUIP KRILE WHEN SHE JOINS THE PARTY AFTER GALUF'S DEATH! As far as codes go, the "have 99 of all items" code makes the game freeze and have sound issues!

After much frustration over three hours, I managed to defeat Omega by using the power of Mirage Vests (IMAGE STATUS) / Coral Rings (fire protection), and a pre-emptive strike! I used it to power up my blades with Thundaga Spellblade, then used Rapid-Fire on Faris... I think it was a fluke!

Also, to reset the breath timer in the sunken tower of Walse, climb up the fourth floor vine to get to that chest! I finally actually defeated Famed Mimic Gogo at the bottom of the sunken Tower of Walse by using the Dragoon / Dual-Wield x4 strategy! It was pretty tricky since I wasn't sure that all my characters would survive at least five Meteor attacks, but two of them did! Got garbled text as part of the bugged fight, too... "Dragged into another dimension! Odin: All right, that's far enough! Turning to stone... Can't escape! Countdown to Pestilence... 4 KO'd! Countdown to Eruption... 5 KO'd! Level halved! KO'd!":D

To get the Drakenvale Golem in the Bestiary, defeat the dragons first and THEN defend until he thanks you!

Stick "READ AHEAD" on a character other than Lenna! To prevent having to input all the codes over and over again, SAVE / remove all codes / then close and reopen the emulator! They should all still be there!

For the Moogle in the Forest of Moore to move after the trees have been set on fire by Tzepish, save the game in the cave and then reset. The creature should NOT be blocking the entrance.

Airship in World 3: It's just above Surgate Castle, east of the Pyramid.

DO NOT SET ANY "No Random Encounters" CODE! IT WILL GLITCH OUT THE GAME! (submarine / world map won't work, and there WILL be no random encounters)

TRY DEFEATING NEO SHINRYU FIRST BEFORE OMEGA MK. II - or else you can't get out of the room for some reason! (the exit door SHOULD be open, but is shut tight instead!)

How Do You Make Friends? / Married or Single? / Are You Secure in Your Looks?

Oct. 10th, 2017 04:15 pm
glowing_dragon: (Default)



"You Make Friends Wisely"



Your friendships are gold to you, and something you take seriously. You prefer quality over quantity when it comes to friends.
When you make friends with someone, you hope to be friends for life. You are loyal to your friends, no matter what goes down.

You expect a lot from friendship, and you're not up for being friends with just anyone. You need to build a relationship first.
Your friends are like family to you... sometimes even closer than family. You can't imagine life without them!









"You Should Be Single"



Just to be clear, this doesn't mean you are bad at relationships. Just the opposite!
You are good at it all - friendship, dating, networking... And you have a blast mixing and mingling.

Maybe you're the married type, but these days, being single is seeming a lot more fun to you.
Whether you're technically married or not, your friends, hobbies, and freedoms mean the world to you.









"You Are Insecure About Your Looks"



You don't necessarily think that you're ugly, but you do consider yourself to be average.
And in this looks-driven world, you just don't think average cuts it anymore. You want to stand out.

You may not feel secure about how you look, but you probably look better than you think.
Ask someone you trust what your best feature is. You may be surprised to find out!

Are You A Maximizer? / What's Your Very English Name? / Kanye West! Kanye East!

Sep. 28th, 2017 01:28 pm
glowing_dragon: (Bert and Ernie)



"You Are a Maximizer"



When it comes to everything in life, you're always looking for the best. And you don't mind if it takes a while to find it.
You look at every option before making a decision. You don't like to be rushed, and you often regret your choices if you are.

You're the type of person who checks out every item on the menu. You don't want to miss out on any gems!
People may be annoyed with how long you take to make a decision, but they will agree that your taste is extraordinary.





Good, because the other result (Satisficer) is definitely not a real word!





From Julie: Kanye West! Kanye East!

Autumn Lipstick personality! / Frosting flavor! / James Caan! James Can't!

Sep. 22nd, 2017 05:02 pm
glowing_dragon: (Crazy-Eyed Bear)



"Your Autumn Lipstick is Dusty Rose"



You are wise and quietly smart. You often know more than most people, but you tend to keep that to yourself.
You appreciate subtlety in everything. You think most people try too hard, and you always prefer nuance.

You are naturally stylish, and you've got that effortlessly chic thing down. You have an eye for beauty.
No one sees how much work goes into your look, and you like it that way. Your makeup enhances, but doesn't distract.









"You Are Chocolate Frosting"



You're the first to admit that you're a bit old-school, but you prefer the term "classic."
Unlike a lot of modern people, you don't believe in depriving yourself. A little indulgence is a good thing, especially if it's frosting!

You take good care of yourself, and you never forget to look after your loved ones. You are naturally thoughtful and generous.
You are the type of person who likes to work behind the scenes. You don't think of yourself as anything special, but people wouldn't want to live without you.






From Julie: James Caan! James Can't!

Kissing your ex with tongue?! / Cuckolding isn't racist or sexist, Worried19!

Sep. 11th, 2017 08:01 pm
glowing_dragon: (LJ Drama)
It's 8:01 PM (20:01 in 24-hour time) on September 11! YAY FOR TIME QUIRKINESS AND COINCIDENCES! :D


From Reddit on June 3, 2016: No, Faith, we do not give our official abusive exes "one last great kiss with tongue" when we're splitting our items post-breakup. You also have a gambling problem ($10,000 in debt to eBay?!) and addiction issues! While those can be fixed / resolved, I hope you never contact your ex again.




From Reddit on July 6, 2017: No, Worried19, cuckolding is not sexist or racist. I'm not a fan of fetishes, but you have some really weird opinions about gender and other things as well, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Empowering or engaging / YOU'VE GOT MAIL / Specifying a date in the future?

Sep. 7th, 2017 11:40 am
glowing_dragon: (Default)



"You Enhance Lives"



You're the type of person who likes to work quietly behind the scenes. Very few people notice all that you do.
You love to help, but you aren't looking for credit. You know that you do a lot simply being there for others.

You are steady, dependable, and loyal. You aren't just a rock, though - you also have a good spark that lights up the world.
You bring lightness and depth, optimism, and realism to others' lives. You are often what is missing.









"You Are Birdie"



You are as wise as they come. You have a good deal of life experience, and you've definitely learned from it.
You may be down to earth, but you have a wild past that few know about. And you're happy to keep it that way.

You have a lot of foresight, but you don't go around making predictions. You just let things unfold.
You are steady and encouraging. You are always rooting your friends on from the sidelines.






I got this error message last night: "You have specified a date in the future." No, I haven't. FACEBOOK, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!

How Frank Are You? / Paper in a storage tub!

Sep. 1st, 2017 03:32 pm
glowing_dragon: (Crazy-Eyed Bear)
I got up at 8 AM after going to bed at 1:50 AM, so it was COFFEE TIME BY DEFAULT! Then I discovered something questionable by my reams of Staples paper, so I transferred those into an empty plastic storage tub. Thank goodness it fit, although I probably should have done that a while ago!





"You Are Very Frank"



You are the type of person who tells it like it is. You aren't going to insult people by lying to them.
Your friends can count on you for an honest opinion, whether they ask for it or not. And sometimes the truth isn't pretty.

You are never mean or overly harsh with your frank ways. But if you have to choose, you go for honesty over tact.
You believe that the truth will set us all free. We all suffer when we lie to ourselves and each other.

What ALMOST FAMOUS Character Are You? / What Kind of Waffle Are You?

Aug. 24th, 2017 06:48 pm
glowing_dragon: (Bert and Ernie)



"You Are William"



You are a smart and contemplative person. You have always been ahead of your time.
You are very curious about the world and enjoy the role of observer. When it comes to many subjects, you definitely know your stuff.

You are dedicated and persistent. You may not be the most aggressive person, but you are assertive in your own way.
You find most other people fascinating. You are not one to intervene much in others' lives, but you will stand up for what is right.









"You Are Waffle Fries"



You are a bit of a rebel and even a lone wolf. You are extremely resistant to peer pressure.
You aren't one to follow the crowd, and you may even run in the opposite direction. You like the solitude of the road less traveled.

You can be a bit of a cynic at times, but you are never too pessimistic. You have a hearty appetite for all of life's experiences, including food.
You like your waffles a little different, and won't just stop at waffle fries. Falafel waffle, anyone?

The Salad Personality Test / Stop whining about heteronormativity and gender!

Aug. 11th, 2017 02:52 pm
glowing_dragon: (Bubble Tea)



"You Are Balanced"



You're the type who likes everything in moderation, and you're especially good at balancing out life's extremes.
You are a bit of a novelty seeker, and you like to have a really good mix of things in your life. There is always room for something or someone new.

You meld well with many different types of people, and you can bridge the gap in groups where members have little in common.
You don't take anything in life too personally and seriously. If you have a bad day or week, you know things will eventually even out.






From Reddit on July 27, 2017: Stop whining, StripedPinkBoxers. "The phrase "girl crush" upholds heteronormativity in such an unnecessary way!" I personally don't think so. I'm cool if you're LGBT, but you have to realize that heterosexuality (and monogamy) is the assumed default for society! In the past, she's even tried challenging me on what I'd think if Nephew #4 was in fact a girl. Nice try, but I'd treat a nephew and a niece the same basic way! I'm also definitely not a fan of people abbreviating "THOUGH" as "tho." Also, LegsForAboutAnHour is a prostitute who got raped.

What's Inspiring About You? / How Should You Beat The Heat? / Monogonormative?!

Aug. 11th, 2017 11:45 am
glowing_dragon: (Default)



"You Are a Go-Getter"



You are a very ambitious person, and you're constantly adding to your list of goals and dreams.
While you dream big, you never let that satisfy you. You like to get out there and make sure your dreams come true.

You don't lose sight of your larger purpose in life, and you keep working even when things get tough.
Your attitude is almost like magic. When every door closes, you keep knocking until a new one opens.






From Reddit on June 18, 2017: I automatically lose respect for people who use the word "normative" when "normal" would do, but this special snowflake seems to think that "monogonormative" is a real word AND thinks that everyone should be cool with a non-monogamous lifestyle. You can DEFINITELY be cheated on if you're poly!

Strong as an ox, MRS HERP as a license plate, an Equitableness police car

Jun. 29th, 2017 01:56 pm
glowing_dragon: (Bubble Tea)
I was up at 7:15 AM, so it was COFFEE TIME BY DEFAULT! Then I discovered that my bags of NEW Dutch Gourmet chips (Mozzarella and Jalapeno Cheddar) were expired when I bought them last week (June 12 and June 20), so I at least tried some of both flavors before throwing them out. Then I noticed that my dumplings and other things had melted ice all over them, and decided to write Hester a note before the long weekend (and left a message on Barry's voicemail) - when I got up to her suite, she was actually there, but figuring out laundry tokens for some dude. GOOD TIMING! She read the note, asked what "adjusting" meant (?!), and decided to go with me to my suite right then. While there, she saw the dumplings bag which I'd kept for proof, adjusted the numbers again on BOTH the fridge and freezer, told me not to touch them, said she'd probably be back tomorrow, and was surprised that there was a long weekend coming up at all. Right after she left, Barry called me back to see what was going on. He said to let him know what was up tomorrow, then.


In DRAGON WARRIOR II, the party goes to Midenhall Castle. The vizier tells them, "Thou art now as strong as an ox and twice as good-looking. That is very good." What the heck kind of "compliment" is this?!




MRS HERP is a very unfortunate Illinois license plate for this Hyundai Sonata! Mrs. Herp?!

From Not Always Right: Jacquelynne Bird?! That's a very interesting spelling of JACQUELINE... and the joke in the picture is Dayquil, Nyquil, and a Pokemon named Cyndaquil.




From Not Always Right: Ash Warden?!

glowing_dragon: (OMFG Yay!)
THIS ENTRY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE NON-ALIGNED TAGS.


These are all the enemies I could find in FINAL FANTASY VI: THE ETERNAL CRYSTALS!

I know that this bestiary GameFAQs document helped me a lot; thank you! Also, this walkthrough by Djibriel helped a lot when I was stuck in the game. Here's an amazing codes document. This is an enemy formation document / walkthrough. Here's a game script! Found a good Dragon's Den walkthrough which didn't have atrocious English!

This is a good code document. YAY FOR MAGICITE!

F124-EDD8 gives you 99 of every item.

I used this Youtube playlist by LowBiasGaming as a walkthrough.

GRAB ZEMUS FROM THE ZONE EATER'S BELLY FIRST BEFORE GOING TO UMARO'S CAVE IN NARSHE!


ANSWER TO THE ZOZO CLOCK PUZZLE: 6:10:50


Narshe Security Checkpoint Path!




The FINAL FANTASY VI: THE ETERNAL CRYSTALS party is in Kefka's Tower, where they have to split up to conquer the dungeon together. They need to step on the circled green button to open up the path for other people, as shown. Bonus: They get a Ribbon from that treasure chest!

Alabama Vest, worthless ill-informed opinions, melatonin, no art gallery pass

Since I was up at 6:45 AM today, it was COFFEE TIME! Then I made a post in r/vancouver asking if anyone wanted my Vancouver Art Gallery pass which expires on the 30th. I don't think Eric Ho is actually available even though I sent him two emails about it. Someone from Reddit named Jamie said that they could take it from me after the Sun Run, which was right then at 9 AM. Luckily, I had more than enough time to properly draft entries / eat some Butter and Herb Sidekicks / dress in normal clothes / put everything in my pockets before heading to the Vancouver City Centre London Drugs downtown at 11:35 or so on a 407. I was there at 12:20 and stood around for a while until Jamie figured out that I was there. We chatted briefly about playoff hockey and the Art Gallery pass; he invited me to coffee, but there's no need for him to pay me back for that, haha. I got home at 1:25 on a 407 after buying some 180-tablet melatonin at the London Drugs since it was right there. Nope, I definitely did not need a bag for that!


From my FAST-ACTING LONG-LASTING Bathroom Reader #18: Alabama Vest?!




From The Daily Mash: I have no interest in your worthless ill-informed opinions.




London Naturals melatonin: 180 tablets for $9.99!

Correcting people's grammar, Jeff, Dungeon Man, Balloon Monkey, an iron eraser

April 4 is apparently Tell A Lie Day. Well, then.


From Candy: If you can't win an argument, correct their grammar instead.




In MOTHER 2 DELUXE, Jeff and the Balloon Monkey meet Brick Road, who wants to become Dungeon Man. There's a Gruff Goat and an iron pencil nearby. You need a Pencil Eraser to get rid of the pencil.




In MOTHER 2 DELUXE, Jeff and the Balloon Monkey exit the sanctuary of the Rainy Circle Cave. There's a girl monkey outside! Balloon Monkey: "Kye uki kukyi... (Now she's my type...)"




In MOTHER 2 DELUXE, Jeff decides to check out the entrance to Stonehenge. For some weird reason, something that looks like a very large iron eraser is in the way.




Later on in MOTHER 2 DELUXE, Ness / Paula / Jeff / Poo / the Super Plush Teddy Bear make it to the Stonehenge entrance. Jeff uses the Eraser Eraser. For some reason, the iron eraser statue disappeared in an instant!
