35% and I'm not tired
May. 27th, 2003 01:33 amI don't think I'll be sleeping much tonight. Or getting all that much done, at least in the hours foreseeable. Already did some dishes while listening to Chicago OST, got quickly bored of both. I'm in the mood for a pick-me-up, something assured to make me smile. None of my friends are here right now that have that incredible ability to do that, so... I'm stuck with browsing through my old webpages, and trying to find others.
The results:
* The Dialectizer - http://rinkworks.com/dialect/
For the hell of it, I dialectized NBoR into Redneck. Here are the results.
*giggles* For those to lazy to click:
Noos
Read about th' latess happenin's of our fo'um! Fry mah hide! (Topics kin be posted by Mods/Admins ONLY! Fry mah hide!)
Intryduckshuns
Noo t'th' fo'ums? Intrydooce yo'seff hyar! Fry mah hide!
Suggesshun Box
Enny suggesshuns? Post them hyar an' we'll see whut we kin does.
*laughs* What's even better is that there's other dialects, like Jive, Cockney, Elmer Fudd, Swedish Chef, Pig Latin, Hacker or Moron. o_O I wonder if the Hacker one will translate the entire page into l33t sp34k?
* How many people does it take to change a lightbulb?
I saw a T-shirt for the various nationalities of the world, and, while at least somewhat racist, it was damned funny. They do it for jobs and everythig else too. Check them out. The first several are kinda complex and political, but as you get down the list, they start simplifying and becoming fun(ner).

Q: How many movie directors does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Just one, but he wants to do it thirty-two times and when he's done everyone thinks that his last lightbulb was much better.
* Jive Talkin' - http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~eclectic/toys/jive.html
I read this hilarious fanfic called "Inuyasha learns to Jive" in which a magical book caused Inuyasha (and several others, later on) to be able to speak nothing but jive! (Jive is the closest thing you can call "ghetto speak") You type in any phrase, and it ghetto-fies it-- or translates it into Jive. It's not meant to insult Black English, or Ebonics, but it's still funny. Here, I take a part of my last entry...
I've pretty much demolished dis tiny-ass bowlin'-pin shaped stress ball mom gave me, which be kinda sad. I is tru-ly into bowlin', an' I shoulda kept it into one piece, but I serious-like plum to' it apart. Right on! Now all dat's left be dis tiny-ass chunk o' da damn middle. Dair be still da ball, but I duzn't wanna mess D-A-fuckin'-T down too. I've plum been tryin' t' channel all mah stress into da funky foam, but it 24/7 seems t' come right back an' concentrate in mah shoulderblades an' fingertips.
Hahah, can you imagine if I'd actually typed like that!? I bet for once it'd have gotten some people's attention, and they just might start COMMENTING ON MY DAMNED JOURNAL! *harumph*
* Internet Bumper Stickers - http://www.internetbumperstickers.com/admon.html
I used to be on this nutso rampage for this one quotes site I remembered... this isn't it, but it's pretty damn close. It gives you cute examples of fonts too, though I personally think FontGarden.com does that better.
Examples:
Don't use a big word where a diminutive one will suffice. *snicker*
Let the sermon finish before you cook the missionary.
Don't drink to drown your sorrow Sorrow knows how to swim (Good Advice)
Remember: Pillage, then burn!
* The BurnMaker (no, not the Burninator, but it's close enough! ^.~) - http://toy.thespark.com/burn/
Ah yes, when you can't come up with those perfect insults, the burn-maker takes your innocent, well-behaved speech and turns it into evil firey flame spouted from the gorgons of hell. Ultra-coolness, especially when you're pissed off at someone online! ^_^
Example: (the same chunk of text from my last entry as before, burn-inized, and LJ-cut for the faint of heart)
( SIZZLE! )
*snicker* Ah, that made me come off as a lot more angry than I think (keyword being "THINK") I realy was at the time. Come to think of it, I know someone who could make great use of this right about now...
...the download's at 46% now. The water should have heated back up again, so maybe I'll take a shower. Uh... later.
Ouch. Okay, so not ALL TheSpark.com's toys are fun/accurate:
What's up frigidaire? You are 32% pickup-able! You're cold and unapproachable, like a big glacier that's unapproachable. And cold. Unlike the Arctic tundra, few even venture to plant their flag in you. You're definitely not a Scorpio, unless you were born between October 23 and November 21. The bad news is that you'll end up miserable and alone, probably knitting doilies out of cat hair. The good news is that this is apparently what you want. Honestly, I don't even feel comfortable talking to you right now, so I'm just gonna go… yeah… wash my friend's hair.
-people more pickup-able than you (82%)
-people just as pickup-able as you (2%)
-people less pickup-able than you (14%)
Am I really that bad? It was just that in the last section, all the pick-up lines were so stupid and dumb, I laughed AT the supposed speaker, as opposed to WITH them! Does that make heartless? Come on people, compare!
* Murphy's Law - http://dmawww.epfl.ch/roso.mosaic/dm/murphy.html
I love Murphy and he loves me. I quote several of his adages routinely, and hey, it scored me points with Cunningham that one day in ROTC (gawd, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss him, and were he around right now, I would flirt with him shamelessly) ... *cough* Anyway, check some of these out:
-( murphy's laws... of SEX! )
*To The YouKnowWhos:
A lot of these are quite meaningul and touching-- got them from various sites on the 'Net, so here are some of my favorites:
(http://moonlightmoon.homestead.com/4u.html CLICK ON FOR YOU >> QUOTES)
"Somebody somewhere is dreaming of your smile
And in your presence finds a life worth while.
When you are lonely remember this is true;
Somebody somewhere is thinking of you."
~Unknown
"If you are going to be able to look back on something and laugh about it, you might as well laugh about it now."
"Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today."
~James Dean
"...I think--the loneliest thing is to be alone with someone. I'd rather be by myself than be with someone who has no idea who I am."
~Nicole Burdette
Interesting Questions, and then some
Should crematoriums give discounts for burn victims?
If a mute kid swears, does his mother wash his hands with soap?
If a man stands in the middle of the forest speaking and there is no woman around to hear him... is he still wrong?
If someone with multiple personalities threatens suicide... is it considered a hostage situation?
Isn't it scary that doctors call what they do "practice"?
Where do forest rangers go to get away from it all?
What should you do if you see an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?
Would a wingless fly be called a walk?
Is a shell-less turtle homeless or just naked?
Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
"Sex is evil, evil is sin, sin is forgiven, so let's begin." <-- I love this quote, I'm sorry. When can I use it on you?
Someday we'll look back on this and plow into a parked car.
"As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in public schools."
I can please only one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow's not looking good either <-- Ms. Archer had this posted up in her room. She pointed to it whenever we asked for help. You want to know why I hated her? DARE I SAY MORE!?
( men's answers to all of women's questions... ladies, help me come up with some rebuttals here! )
Haha. ( i abuse this tag, but it's worth it. and you love me anyway. )
Ah... this is excessively long. But I hope I've kept YOU entertained as well. Now admit it-- how many of you didn't just scroll through this whole damn thing? *sniff* Well, glad to know you're interested in MY life... =} Comment anyway. I'm getting desperate. (59%!)
