Spoiler: Show

I have had Green Day's "At The Library" stuck in my head all day.

in other news, I've been all over the damn map today. 11 towns in all (10 if you don't count home). in order:

Windham
Hudson
Nashua
Amherst
Manchester
Concord (then back to Manchester)
Bedford
New Boston
Goffstown (then back through New Boston, Bedford, and Manchester)
Londonderry
Derry
(then back to Windham)

all in all it was a very productive day and I got two boxes of Waffle Crisp in Goffstown which I proceeded to molest (in bag) in the grocery store parking lot.

also helped out my mother's friend today, and worked on art this morning. paid a bill with mum and found a dental school she has to go to in a few weeks. a productive day indeed.

@Kari: Well, I *was* at the library earlier, so maybe the reasoning was that you somehow knew where I was? :3

@Dustii, Cockle: I once got my thumb stuck in the car door when I was younger. That hurt so much >_<;

my sister closed a car door on my hand once. that was a joy.

Nichi · January 30, 2014, 08:45:16 PM

In my case, the door latched on me with my thumb in there >_<;

I may or may not have internet for the weekend because of reasons.

THAT EXTENSION IS ONLY FOR GOOGLE CHROME!

Broken piece of shit.

Chocofreak13 · January 31, 2014, 02:04:10 AM

I'd google it to see if there's a solution. :\

@stew: that sucks. :\
also, someday I need your address. for shipping and all that.

Nichi · January 31, 2014, 06:42:23 AM

@Stew: Seconding Kari on that; as I have something to send you

@Leaf: Reminds me of a messed up copy of Donkey Kong Country I had at one point. Because the connectors were a bit rusty, it'd crash to an anti-piracy screen when you tried to go to the 2nd boss of the game.

So I'm up early. I think I should have turned off the heater in my room, because it was getting a bit too warm in here :\

Chocofreak13 · January 31, 2014, 09:38:35 AM

NO SUCH THING.

anyway, that's a bit lulzy considering it's a legit copy of the game. I'm wondering how that would even come into play....like, they "copy" the game onto an illegitimate cartridge...?

Nichi · January 31, 2014, 09:51:34 AM

It's supposed to detect if something is abnormal, such as if the game is running off a game copier instead of a cartridge (Example of such a device, plugged into a Super Famicom). Still odd how, due to some rust, it managed to trigger the anti-piracy screen -w-;

Chocofreak13 · January 31, 2014, 09:53:52 AM

people bitch about how one tiny scratch can fuck up a whole system, and yet it goes to show that the ones back in the day were pretty damn sensitive, too. -w-;;

Nichi · January 31, 2014, 10:10:48 AM

Indeed -w-;

Which, some copy protection stuff in games can be amusing; like Spyro: Year of the Dragon (Every single character will tell you "this is a bootleg copy" when you talk to them, on top of other little things) or EarthBound had (If you hack the game to bypass the typical warning screen, it raises a flag that sharply increases the game's difficulty to make it nearly unplayable, and if by some chance you survive all the way to the end, the game will crash when the final boss fight begins).
