Fishin' in the stream of consciousness (all-purpose, no topic chat thread)

Ah yes, fucking around. The best way to get anything in Microsoft Office to do what you want! :D

Also I'm trying to get some of my friends to read The God Eaters with me so I have someone to talk to about it. I finally got the physical copy a week ago and just got to them busting out of prison. There's so much I forgot and I'm so happy <3
I should work on my own writing, but... no motivation @.@

 

i found a pic of ishtar and macklemore the easter egger chickies as babies, omg



(it's from a couple days after i brought them home)

 

Spoiler: i went to a larp event

[9/19/16, 5:24:46 PM] Nick: oh yeah i was gonna tell you guys about the larpthing
[9/19/16, 5:25:16 PM] Nick: so everyone was assigned three aspects for their character - an appearance, a group, and a true identity
[9/19/16, 5:25:29 PM] Nick: and there was a wish associated with each aspect
[9/19/16, 5:26:19 PM] Nick: and the premise was that we were all at the end of a quest to find a well that can grant every quester three wishes in like an hourlong period every hundred years or something like that
[9/19/16, 5:26:33 PM] Nick: anyway, the legends were wrong: the well can only grant one wish per person
[9/19/16, 5:27:01 PM] Nick: and we got an hour to talk to each other and try to make it so everyone got out of the quest with everything they wanted
[9/19/16, 5:27:13 PM] Nick: the characters included
[9/19/16, 5:27:33 PM] Nick: -a dragon trying to run a Speed Rescuers Ltd business
[9/19/16, 5:28:10 PM] Nick: -a vegetable crimes detective trapped in the body of a ten year old, who wants an anarchist revolution
[9/19/16, 5:28:49 PM] Nick: -a king looking for a loyal and powerful magical advisor
[9/19/16, 5:29:04 PM] Nick: -an invisible person in rehab because they were addicted to being a hero
[9/19/16, 5:29:26 PM] Nick: -someone who was top of their class in hero school, looking for their missing aunt
[9/19/16, 5:29:41 PM] Nick: -a genie who lost their power to grant wishes (me)
[9/19/16, 5:30:09 PM] Nick: -and a few other people who were less involved in what was happening/i didnt really interact with
[9/19/16, 5:30:46 PM] Nick: there was a poem on the well with the last line missing, which seemed to imply that we shouldnt wish using the well
[9/19/16, 5:31:19 PM] Nick: i managed to get my powers back, so i promised wishes to people so they wouldnt wish on the well
[9/19/16, 5:31:40 PM] Nick: most of these wishes ended up getting fulfilled by other people who just happened to have whatever was needed
[9/19/16, 5:32:25 PM] Nick: the king had a bunch of us help him in a ritual with his ancestral sword so he could get the name of the advisor he was looking for - orane
[9/19/16, 5:32:31 PM] Nick: who is orane? no one knows
[9/19/16, 5:33:01 PM] Nick: the time comes to wish on the well. pretty much everyone is satisfied, and we all agree not to wish on it
[9/19/16, 5:33:16 PM] Nick: AND THEN the vegetable detective fucking goes "REVOLUTION" and wishes on the well
[9/19/16, 5:33:32 PM] Nick: while everyone else shouted "NO DONT"
[9/19/16, 5:33:50 PM] Nick: and then the king was like "IM WISHING FOR ULTIMATE POWER FOR ORANE"
[9/19/16, 5:33:53 PM] M: haha
[9/19/16, 5:34:07 PM] Nick: and he fucking switches his name tag around - he was only pretending to be the king!
[9/19/16, 5:34:12 PM] Nick: he was really orane!
[9/19/16, 5:34:23 PM] M: :o
[9/19/16, 5:34:39 PM] Nick: and the fucking used carpet salesman was actually the princess and didn't say anything because she didnt want to out herself to us
[9/19/16, 5:34:45 PM] Nick: and you know where the aunt was?
[9/19/16, 5:34:49 PM] Nick: she was the well!
[9/19/16, 5:35:01 PM] Nick: and if we hadnt wished, she would have been freed!
[9/19/16, 5:35:25 PM] Nick: but we DID come closest to freeing the aunt, so i'll take that
[9/19/16, 5:35:51 PM] Nick: anyway, it was super fun and had lots of cool plot twists for something that only took less than an hour and a half
[9/19/16, 5:36:18 PM] M: It sounds like a very neat campaign
[9/19/16, 5:36:23 PM] Nick: yes! : D
[9/19/16, 5:36:43 PM] Nick: i cant fucking believe we got screwed over by an anarchist revolution
[9/19/16, 5:36:48 PM] Nick: fucking incredible
[9/19/16, 5:39:55 PM] Nick: oh yeah, the reason why she wanted an anarchist revolution: she has a bad habit of accidentally usurping thrones and she's tired of it
[9/19/16, 5:40:18 PM] Zin Karyuu: Lmfao
[9/19/16, 5:40:19 PM] Nick: in fact, one of her items was a sword she accidentally pulled from a stone on her way to the well
[9/19/16, 5:40:26 PM] M: Haha
[9/19/16, 5:40:28 PM] Nick: and this made her YET ANOTHER monarch
[9/19/16, 5:40:50 PM] Ryn: I think that makes her an Empress at this point
[9/19/16, 5:41:00 PM] Nick: omg
[9/19/16, 5:41:13 PM] Nick: anyway. fucking anarchist revolution
[9/19/16, 5:41:43 PM] Nick: and the king/orane made up the entire ancestral sword! that wasn't in the character sheet!
[9/19/16, 5:41:59 PM] Nick: i was impressed. the GMs were impressed. it was impressive

 

THEY'RE TALKING TO EACH OTHER HELP IM CRYING ITS SO CUTE

 

i'm sad i can't like this more than once because RELATABLE

 

i'm eating my favorite ice cream right now, and i was wondering what everyone else's is? mine is ben & jerry's phish food! it's chocolate ice cream with marshmallow, caramel, and little fudge fish in--super rich, and i can only eat a little at a time, but it's delicious and gives me nostalgiafeels :D

 

ANY KIND OF NUT ICE CREAM OMG
i don't buy brand stuff b/c im cheap, so i only get to eat pistachio and hazelnut and macadamia when i go to an ice cream parlor, but damn i love nut ice cream.

also vanilla ice cream mixed with ginger or matcha. i shall need to purchase matcha, matcha is love, matcha is life.

 

My favorite is apparently only available in Canada any more and that's upsetting - Haagen-Dasz had this limoncello gelato that I would, no questions asked, kill a stranger for a year's supply of. It was basically just rich lemon ice cream with vodka but they did something to it to make it addictive. It's the only ice cream I've ever eaten a pint of in one sitting.

 

"But they did something to it to make it addictive." - I'm pretty sure that's the vodka.

 

Haha I actually really.... don't like vodka? I'm a dark rum and whiskey person 100%. Like, I'll drink a vodka lemonade, but I would rather have something else.

 

I've been wanting really good coffee ice cream for weeks & not seen any :B

 

there's this haagen daaz pomegranate vanilla gelato that i never see any more which is sad cause that stuff was AMAZING

 

I cant say i like any one flavor because i like a few pretty equally. For standard flavors i like butter pecan, cherries pecans and cream, and mint chocolate chip (as long as it's the green kind). For limited edition (aka holiday flavors) eggnog ice cream and pumpkin pie ice cream with little bits of pie crust are excellent. Then theres this stuff called superman ice cream that seems to be an odd mix of sherberts and vanilla that i LOVE but it comes in 3 gallon tubs instead of 1 gallon and we don't always have room for it

Spoiler: Supes pic

 

Phish food is a favorite of mine too! I also love maple nut, hazelnut, that cookie/brownie dough Ben&Jerry's, and cotton candy (which is difficult to find). Also anything with blackberries or mint/chocolate, especially if the chocolate is in cookie form.

 

chocolate mousse royale

 

I just like anything with sugar in it, really.

 

Moose tracks for the win

Oh my goodness, that is delightful.
