Current Mood: my tummy!!

then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you

Bleh, I feel all sickly this weekend. But that's okay because I can just laze around and cradle my tummy and whine incessantly. *g*

So meanwhile, here's some links!!

. Oregon Trail. That's right, Oregon Trail. If I managed not to die of dysentery, fording that damn river always did me in. Now I can finally beat it!!

.

tammylee has an...interesting HP-themed observation on wolves and their reflexive habits. Heh heh heh. There should be fic.

. Um. WTF? Have any of you guys ever seen (or even better, used) one of these?!? And just how *much* does it spray at you, anyhow?

. How much do I love that a reporter asked La Timberlake about the alternate reality version of himself? And for some reason, this is the hottest I've found Lance in a loooooong time. Except when he's letting dogs lick his mouth, because I just don't believe in that -- but the third and fourth photos? Nice.

Oregon Trail! Oh, the 6th grade memories!

Dude! And you can DOWNLOAD it! I am so very happy, it's almost sad. *g*

Lance = hot?? It can't be true.

By the way, I'm actually just commenting to say that I LOVE YOUR ICON. <3

Awwww. Thank you! I adore Jayne, man. And I love his hat. *g*

Lance = hot?? It can't be true.

Weird, innit? It's been so long!

Me too! Oh, Jayne, crazy merc of my heart.

Weird, innit? It's been so long!

I don't know, man... I think JT is the only ex-N'Syncer for me. :>

THAT FUCKING RIVER.

*never made it past fording the river in Oregon Trail*

Drowned me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. grrrr!

Goddamn, Oregon Trail. That game consumed my LIFE.

Also, having being to numerous truck stop bathrooms in Tennessee and Kentucky, I can tell you that these machines must be relatively rare, or a recent innovation. However! I have found some machines with a rather daunting flavored lubricant selection, which may be worse.

Pina Colada for everyone!

a rather daunting flavored lubricant selection

*weeps*

Although in the long run, I suppose it's for the best that they make fleeting, dirty, truckstop sex a more...fragrant and tasty experience for all involved.

Or, I never really wanna think about that AGAIN. *g*

Oregon Trail is the only thing I ever used a computer for between 1990 and 1996. We would give our other trail members obscene names and giggle at our cleverness.

Also, there's no way I'd put anything that came out of a truck stop bathroom anywhere near my body.

Bwaahhah! We used to play that and "Odell Lake", which had to do with avoiding being eaten by bigger fish, like that fucking pike that consumed me constantly. It was more boring, though, because how exciting is it being a *fish*?

there's no way I'd put anything that came out of a truck stop bathroom anywhere near my body

A good credo to live by, fo' sho'. *g*

OREGON TRAIL! I was so jealous of my best friend, who had a personal computer in the late eighties and could play ANYTIME SHE WANTED. I had to wait till we got free computer time at school, or until we went over to her house.

I was awful at buying supplies. And yes, the dysentary. The DYSENTARY! My kids never made it. Also, I was terrible at hunting, I think. I always ended up with way more bear meat (or whatever it was you killed) than I could carry.

Oh, I could go on and ON. That game was awesome.

One of my friends had some sort of ghetto Ghostbusters game on his computer. I didn't even like him that much, but I wanted to play that game SO BADLY I would accept invitations to his house and grimly sit through listening to him talk about his grandmother and then wash the Chinet plates we ate on.

I was terrible at hunting! I need to try it again, because if it wasn't for clumps of purple berries I kept finding behind bushes, I would've starved even *before* the dysentery set in! *g*

Um, the perfume thing? Eeeuuuuuw. *shudders*

And yes, to Jayne. *grins* I love how "I'll be in muh bunk" has taken over just about every slash fandom out there as the new version of "ooh, that makes my panties wet." I see it everywhere, I swear. Though I'll bet that half the people using the quote don't even know where it's from, which is a little sad.

Though really, it's Mal I miss the most.

I love how "I'll be in muh bunk" has taken over just about every slash fandom out there as the new version of "ooh, that makes my panties wet."

ahahahaha! And I must say, I prefer Jayne's version. It's so much more polite. *giggle*

Mal is so wonderful. I get distracted when I watch the show and just stare at his pretty, wide-set eyes that make my sister and I call him "a member of the JC clan." Hee!

I can't remember when you and I made LJ friends--were you around last December for my "seeing Nathan Fillion in the airport" story? He's even more attractive in person, because he still has all those lovely features, except he just looks like a guy--not a bum and not a polished movie star. Just a guy who happens to be really gorgeous. It's very attractive. I didn't talk to him though--he was sending out very strong, almost Jedi-strength, you-don't-see-me vibes.

But still. Yes, pretty...

OMG no, I don't think I was around for that story. Or if I was, my sieve-like brain has lost it. But that's okay, because hearing it again is like a little Mal-shaped piece of HEAVEN. Even if you didn't talk to him, it's a good story, man. ^_^

My favourite (and really, *only*) celeb-spotting story is that when my sister and I went to see a small, community-theatre production of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead", Eric Stoltz came and sat in front of us for about half the play. He was very pretty and smiled a lot. Hee!

Heh. It wasn't a very long story--I was going to link it, but heck, it's only a couple sentences, and really the only part I didn't already say above is that he wears glasses--wire rims. I might have a slight glasses kink. *grins* And he was reading Scientific American or something like that--some science geek magazine. *keels over*

And oooooh, Eric Stoltz. Smiling. Speaking of "might have," I might have re-watched his scenes in The Prophecy even more times than I've watched the whole movie, which is a LOT "" (I love that movie). Long hair and goatee and all angelic but not, and creepy but not, and, and... Man. *fans self*

ooo oregon trail in 5 colors... niiice. hehe. I will be playing this all day. :)

NOW IN FIVE-COLOUR ACTION! It's so high tech it's blinding. ahahahahah!!

Dude. The WHOLE point of Oregon Trail was to kill yourself and then leave a rude epitaph on your tombstone for others to find in the future. Sometimes many, many years in the future.

I loved Oregon Trail... so I went out and bought the newest edition of it... only they eliminated the tombstone feature... Which kinda makes the game pointless!

I can't find a mac emulator for that earlier version... and that makes me sad.

The WHOLE point of Oregon Trail was to kill yourself and then leave a rude epitaph on your tombstone for others to find in the future.

bwahahahahaha!! I was never clever enough to come up with something like that. I don't even remember the whole tombstone feature, in fact; probably because I'd get tired of DYING OF DYSENTRY and play stupid boring Odell Lake instead. *g*

How much do I love that a reporter asked La Timberlake about the alternate reality version of himself?

About as much as I love the fact that he can't even imagine such a thing. Normalize it all, baby, just normalize it.

His constant insistence that he's "just a regular guy" and "just like anybody else" and "really just ordinary people when you git down to it, shucks yess'm" boggles the mind. And also, it kind of annoys me. You wear ugly jewelry that could play my car insurance for at LEAST ten years, Timberlake, don't tell me you're "jes' folks"!!!

And yet, I love him. *g*

- I've always heard of Oregon Trail but have never played it. Which is kind of odd considering how much of a computer game geek ~~I am~~ my dad is. We had lots of other games, though! Really! Honest!

- Do you think we could get Lori to illustrate Remus's reflexive habits? Because I think that would be fabulous.

- I've seen those in...I want to say NJ truck stops. But it might've been the Carolinas. And I've always been tempted and completely afraid to use them.

- I think the best part of that interview is Justin talking about doing Southern rock. omigod, can you just imagine? Maybe he'll cover 'Freebird'. hahahahaha! oh, it amuses me so much.

-Suuuuure. What other games did you have, then, LIAR?!?!

-I think Lori needs to get on that right away. But she won't do it if *I* ask her, the snooty cow! You need to ask her!

-I think I would put the money in, stand to one side of the machine, and make my selection of scent. Maybe hold up a piece of paper in front of the nozzle to see if what collects is a splurt of greasy yellow smelly goo. eeeeiwwww!

-I don't know where the fuck he got this "Southern rock" business he's on about. I mean, what the hell?!? He just got popular as a pretty little r&b-boy, and now he wants to start crooning "The Night they Drove Old Dixie Down"? Which, admittedly, I would kinda like -- but that's neither here nor there!! WTF!!!!

- pssssh. We had really primitive versions of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy and Risk. My favorite game, though, was this one called Quest that...well, it was basically D&D in 16-bit graphics. STOP LAUGHING! It was cool!

- Will do!

- Next time I see one, I'm totally going to do that. Then I'm sealing it in an envelope and sending it to you.

- For some reason, I think Justin + Southern Rock = Kid Rock. I just keep picturing it in my head and laughing and laughing. And then I laugh some more.

I never played Oregon Trail but now I can, yay!

I especially love the Joey reference about a quarter of the way down the page. Whoever wrote it must be a fan. *g*

omg, I laughed so hard when I came across that. Because of all the random *nsync facts to pull out, it's Joey getting his leg punctured! So fabulous. (Er, the reference, not Joey's injury. Heh.)

A beautiful interview. All celebs should be asked to envision AU versions of themselves.

I think the dogs make Lance hotter. And to be honest, there isn't much you can do when one wants to try to lick your face. It's just what they do.

To be able to scream "Play Freebird Motherfucker!" at a Timberlake concert is one of my life's dreams.

All celebs should be asked to envision AU versions of themselves

Yes. YES. They should be asked about it at every opportunity.

I think the dogs make Lance hotter. And to be honest, there isn't much you can do when one wants to try to lick your face. It's just what they do.

It could be the dogs, but then again I'm not easily swayed by the appearance of cute animal sidekicks. I think it's probably because he's not camera-whoring, for once, doing that big schmoozy grin. I like him better like this, yo.

I am proud to say that in my six years of dog ownership, not once did I let any of my beloved pets lick my face. *g* I loved them, but I saw where those tongues went. *shudder*
