I hope nobody minds that I cleaned up the title a little bit.
>>937
I don't know. But I do know that both he and Gene Wolfe are Jack Vance fans. Almost all of Haviland Tuf's dialogue from the Tuf Voyaging stories are Martin's conscious attempt to have him speak like a Vance character from "The Dying Earth."
Oh god no not again
>>930
Oh, I know how that feels. Well, I'm not in the exact same situation, but it's similar enough. If only he cared about me again, I could handle the rest. Kind of like playing love on hard mode, heh. If only he didn't push me away.
I just farted and it sounded like Chewbacca.
I should really get around to reading Vernor Vinge's Hugo-winning novels, but I don't know what order to do so in. I know they're not sequels in the same continuity, but I've heard people say that The Peace War ought to be read only after having read A Fire Upon The Deep, for instance ...
I want to get more work. I want to work 70 hours a week so I can make a lot of money and never have to go home. I have no friends and I don't like being reminded of that fact.
I just bought my first vibrator and oh my god...
>>944 better exhausted than depressed.
Also I agree: fuck Anonymous Jones.
Fuck Anonymous Jones. I hope he dies in a fire.

Well, I have four essays and a presentation handout to write, several bags of laundry to get done, five tall stacks of books on my desk to sort into shelves, a few dirty dishes to wash, two A4 pages of new vocabulary to memorize, and lunch to plan. But damn it, it's far more important that I inform Facebook of the video games I like! The Internet must learn about my obsession with skinning wolves in a fictitious Mexican territory!
Yoga is fun. I'm glad I tried it.
I'm glad I bought all these dragon dildos
What's with all the /jp/ people?
Damn you, Eternal Summer!
>>954
I've linked /dqn/ on /jp/ on multiple occasions, or mentioned it. "Dragon dildos" is /v/ though.
You are definitely receiving the most traffic from /jp/ when it comes to 4chan. Most people from /a/ and /v/ would not understand the appeal of DQN, let alone find it.
>>957
True. I don't mind 4channers (most of us are or were 4channers at some point), just stop using memes I don't recognize! Otherwise I'll have to look them up and get irritated at all the Memes "R" Us sites that have sprung up lately.
>>958
Most of 4chan is a MEMES R US site now, well /b/ at least. There are some good boards, like /tg/ and /po/. But after the news started heralding it as dangerous and edgy all the emos started flocking to it.
>>959
/jp/ isn't like that, it's full of assholes. It's just that the fast boards are full of crap.
Hormones is never an excuse for cheating... right?
To simultaneously love her and fear her; what an odd feeling.
feels like the only paths to success are theft, extortion, and murder. mostly extortion.
>>961
I don't think so... I have hormones, but I've never cheated on anyone before. Even though my kind-of girlfriend's cheated on me five times with two different people, I haven't wanted to cheat on her at all once.
>>966
She does a lot of bad things but she promised she'd change, so whatever...
DQN is one of the few places on the internet where I am completely at easy. Many sites agitate me and depress me.
Time to stare out the window again. Oh hello, birch tree! Fancy seeing you here.
Today's clouds are MAGNIFICENT. I saw some god damned amazing cirrus this morning, including some halo phenomena(!), and now the sky is full of beautiful fluffy cumulus. Ah, I just want to lick the sky sometimes.
It's ridiculously sunny here, and I can barely see any clouds in the sky. Yet the weather forecast claims there will be heavy thunderstorms with torrential downpours today.
Since we're on the subject... A while ago I told my kind-of boyfriend I cheated on him. It was a lie. I just wanted to push him away because of fear. Unsure if I should ever bring it up again... I've been thinking about it a lot though.
>>973
You may as well sort-of-dump him. Being told you've been deceived like that by someone you trusted and then trying to forgive them as they hang around is really fucking painful.
Feels good to get a bunch of work done.
STOP!
Hammer Time!

I came across this ages ago and found it interesting but forgot what it was called, but I just came across it again, how delightful :3 Perhaps some of you may remember I made an audio version of the DQN Madlib thread when it was finished; the backing track I made for that was partly inspired by this. I connected the line in of my iMac to the line in of my macbook pro and recorded the gentle buzzing static on the macbook, and then literally got an erection when I realised doing things on it changed the tone and timbre of the static in little ways, such as covering the light sensor, turning the brightness up and down, mashing the keyboard, carrying out tasks in other programs and using exposé
The DQN album is so great.
I never though I'd want kids, but I had a dream I had a baby last night and it was the most amazing feeling in the world. What the hell?
Huh. My ID on other 4-ch boards changes far more frequently than my IP address. Wonder what's up with that.
>>983
Ah, that's all right then. I hadn't posted outside /dqn/ for so long that I had forgotten all about how ID works there.
"Something about pocket watches."
Today I ate egg noodles, ice cream, lemonade, pancakes, and popcorn.
I'm so fucking happy I don't get fat. (Only a little tubby that can easily be worked off with 2~3 hours of exercise)
Duuu, du du du du duuu, du du du du duuuu, du du du du duuu.... I have u-ziq's Secret Stair Part 1 stuck in my head.
I swear she'll be the death of me yet.
It's hot. >_<;
Am I the only one who thinks the BBC Micro version of Elite would make a great browser game? Should be fairly trivial to code the graphics, too.
The mineral water from this bottle I just took from the fridge has the weirdest aftertaste I've ever gotten from water.
I'm going to try to create music. Wish me luck!
I wonder when violence is justifiable.
Women these days simply don't wear enough frilly dresses.
Women these days simply don't wear enough.
>>995
Yes, but tap water that isn't full of limescale and chlorine, unlike the stuff from my own tap. I prefer my drinking water not to taste like a piece of chalk that someone just fished out of a public swimming pool, thank you very much. Also, when it's this hot outside, I need a cold drink. The "cold water" tap only supplies lukewarm stuff these days.
I think this is my first >>999GET. On this special occasion, I would like to regale you with my favourite quote about Japanese culture:
“The average Westerner, in his sleek complacency, will see in the tea ceremony but another instance of the thousand and one oddities which constitute the quaintness and childishness of the East to him. He was wont to regard Japan as barbarous while she indulged in the gentle arts of peace: he calls her civilised since she began to commit wholesale slaughter on Manchurian battlefields.”
―Kakuzō Okakura, The Book of Tea, 1906
