Yu Gi Oh Abridged



Yep yep, this is an awesome parody of an awesome (if somewhat confuddling) show. Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged ! You can search for them on iTunes, they're downloadable as podcasts and completely free because the guy who made them is awesome.
This is one of a few songs that he's made - pretty snazzy. There's entire seasons of it as well, the episodes are all in the iTunes store.
Henceforth, go download.

Prepare for Combat


COMBAT BOOTS
THAT IS ALL
GOODBYE

ANIME #1

Yeah well Conor's blog about anime made me think of a few of my favourite anime which are far superior to his little mage stories...
I'll add more from time to time. Just to keep you on your toes.

Okay, so, anime #1 contains two of my favourite anime series of all time. The first may or may not be familiar as it was on early morning television for about three years when I was eight or nine...
I present to you, Cardcaptor Sakura.


Cardcaptor Sakura - the story of a young girl named Sakura Kinomoto who accidentally released a great number of magical cards containing different forms of magic that wreck havoc around her little town. As a result, the guardian beast of the seal, Keroberos, has turned into something that resembles a stuffed toy animal. So she has to collect all of the cards again, and become the master of the cards or some crap... Li Shaoran, the descendant of the guy who made the cards, Clow Reed, tries to collect them all before she does because for most of the story he's a little bitch. But I love him <3

so yep, that's the best show evar. Get onto it, or if I'm nice I'll send you some eps.
Also the Japanese version is better. Reasons? Well, the Americans made it all very appropriate, aka boring. In the original Japanese, Sakura's older brother Toya and his 'best friend' Yukito, are pretty damn gay. And there was something about Sakura's dad being Sakura's mum's teacher. God forbid that a fictional show about magic might have some paedophilia...

Moving on.
The other show I've just found out about is called Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles. It's kind of like a follow on show to Cardcaptors, but it's much more 'grown up'. :) Oh, and Li Shaoran gets fricken hot, even if his face is a bit pointy.
It's pretty much a mashup of many different anime characters from the makers of Cardcaptors, and all the other shows they've made. It's pretty good, so far. All about parallel universes and stuff.

Pics? Why of course.


Ah, Li Shaoran... if only you were real.
Ignore that bit.
Henceforth, you shall go watch all billion and one episodes of both of these. You'll be a better person for it.
I'm going to go watch them again now. Bai. Or as the Japanese say, Sayonara. (I think.)

Chemistry humour

Well, this was obviously not written by me but by some other smart chem cookie... not sure whether it was genuinely in a test or was just for the lols.
Funny nonetheless.

Read on...

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different Religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.

Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has
to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

We accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.

The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."



This makes me giggle.
Funnily enough, Mr. Portwood told all four of us (the others were all doing their test or were somewhere else I forget...) in chemistry about this the other day. (He was a relief teacher, he doesn't know much about chemistry, so he started going on about this email someone had sent him...) and it turned out rather funny.
Which is unusual. Science humour, yay!
Henceforth, shall not judge teachers for their lame jokes because sometimes they are funny.

Shorts!


oh god, I forget how much I love Pokemon Red.
What a great excuse for a battle.
:) Henceforth nothing, this was a pointless post.


...

okay, I might just add that I just deleted my game file. Accidentally, of course. I'm not a douchebag on purpose...
Ahh life sucks. Now I know how Chadd feels.
Maybe Lachy will agree to a rematch?
But I doubt it.
-_-
Screw Emulators.

Muse doing covers

Ahhhhh, I love when bands do covers. Particularly Muse. They are good at everything they cover... they are good at everything full stop.

Here's a cover of Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You



and also a cover of Back in Black by AC/DC with Nic from Jet on vocals. ^_^ yay




Henceforth shall find more covers. Punk goes Pop/Crunk is always good. Check them out.

The Great Pokemon Race - ep 1

Well it all started off with emulators. Then Lachy and I decided we'd race to see who could finish the original Pokemon Red version the fastest on said emulators. Because we were bored.
Chadd decided to join in but God only knows where he's at.
Lachy chose Squirtle as his first pokemon because he got to choose first. So then I chose Bulbasaur because I finished it once with Charmander already and I need a change of scenery/pokemon. And so that leaves Chadd with the lovely Charmander - ah, a match made in heaven.

so there are rules, of course.

Rule Book section 1 - communication
1.1 all players must agree to disagree at all times on all types of pokemon
1.2 all players will meet once each weekday to react exciting battles from the previous night (unless there are circumstances where a) the conversation does not allow for this to happen or b) the boys are trying to chat someone up... however unlikely, it must be written here)
1.3 all players have to update each other on progress

section 2 - cheating
2.1 no forms of cheating either on gameboys, gameboy colours or on emulators. Emulation cheating includes speeding the game up.
2.2 no red candy as this is just for little bitches.
2.3 no deleting of files of other players
2.4 no misleading information that will put other players at a disadvantage.

section 3 - winner
2.1 the winner shall be the first to complete the game, winning all badges and/or collecting all pokemon
2.2 the winner shall be given a prize yet to be announced, but it'll be hot diggity whatever it is.
2.3 the winner shall have eternal ... pokemon ... glory. :D

We started yesterday and the leaderboard is as follows:

1. Lachy: Third Gym
2. Darcie: First Gym
3. Chadd: Got up to first gym and then lost game file. Next time, Chadd.

So wait until next time to find out who is the ultimate pokemon trainer...
actually training in preperation for the new games. :D cannot wait...

henceforth, time to battle misty.
watch out, biatch.
