Topicless thread

Thanks for the tips, Kari, though at the moment it would probably be "easier" (I put that in quotation marks because it's pretty much impossible for me to move anywhere until I have my own business) for me to just go to Massachusetts and be poor there. <<;

Even if Quebec's official language is French, there are still large English-speaking communities in Montreal. New Brunswick or Nova Scotia would probably be on the top of my list, just because of the proximity to Maine... >>;

Buuuuuuuuut all that's kind of beside the point at the moment, since it would probably be too difficult to juggle the entire being half-Canadian, half-American thing in the near-future, especially considering that I plan on stalking the hell out of Stew once he graduates while still maintaining my ties to New England vis-a-vis spending a certain amount of time creepin' on him and a certain amount of time back in my habitat. If I was going to be in any more places, I'd need a freaking teleportation system... 'w'

Also, now would be a great time to admit I'm a citizen of Canada.

Whoa, really?! I thought you were an SC native? @_@;

I mean I have citizenship, not that I was born there, I wasn't born in SC either though.

Had a special someone in the double O I had to meet.

Heh heh, if the past week or so has proven anything, it's that debate fodder is the last thing we need. ^^;

Chocofreak13 · January 13, 2012, 12:49:26 AM

well, it's a funny article regardless. funny how stupid the food and drug administration can be, that is. :\

Kari, hate to disappoint you, but we have about 18 people per moose, and the province where you're required to carry a gun when moving on the road outside townships is Svalbard, Norway. (It's time we conquer those sillies again so we can have it back.) Nice try though. ^^;

Also THAT PACKAGE CONTAINED A. LOT. OF. PONY. <3

That Kinder Surprise crackdown is RIDICULOUS

Here they've been sold for a long time without anyone choking AFAIK

Nichi · January 13, 2012, 08:32:15 AM

The whole Kinder Surprise thing just sounds silly, really

Also, the abandoned doll factory made me think of Frantic Factory from DK64

They should also ban turkeys. There has been reports of them falling from the sky and breaking windshields (and people's skulls). There's also a choking hazard.

Nichi · January 13, 2012, 12:08:50 PM

Nah; we should put a ban on banning.

Banning is bad...and wrong. In fact, I think there should be a new, stronger word to describe it; like "badwrong", or "badong". Yes, banning is badong, and from this moment on, I will stand for the opposite: Gnodab.

If I weren't a lazy f**k, she'd^ be wearing a fedora and wielding a banhammer...

Guys, I'd like to get a budgie. I've wanted to adopt a pet bird for ages and now that I have a larger house (and the space for a spacious, comfortable bird cage) I can think about actually getting one. But I don't know if I'm up for the demands of budgie ownership. Budgies are social and need lots of attention and interaction, can learn to talk (not sure if I'm ready to have a pet that talks back to me in English), are fragile little animals (I'd be afraid of my dogs accidentally interacting with/hurting it, even though that seems unlikely) and can live a long time (5-15 years is the norm). Plus, I've read that some people can be sensitive to birds and bird droppings, and it can cause lung irritation... I think I may be allergic to my dogs as it is, I don't want to buy another pet and find out I can't comfortably be around it.

NejinOniwa · January 13, 2012, 05:28:24 PM

Budgies are cool as fuck.

I had a few when I was young. As did my mom. Hell, my mom's budgie and our previous dog (the one that died 1 week after I was born) was like bestest pals. I've decided my next bird is gonna be a fucking badass smartypants-of-the-avians magpie though, so none of that for me.
