( Ye Cut! )

I am tired for first in Tsundere, Meganekko and Boke.

Instead of being productive, I landed at a website. http://www.violentacres.com/. In a post (It's really kind of a blog...) Too much Choice is Pure Hell, she (the writer-chick) talks about how even selecting a coffee table was too hard for her. In fact, deciding to spend all day looking for a coffee table nearly drove her insane.

We have to decide when and if we’re going to get married. When or if we’re going to procreate. Should we go to college? Travel abroad? Attend a tech school? Ditch school completely and just head into the work force? Choosing a job may seem like a good idea at first, until you consider that there are hundreds of thousands of potential occupations to choose from. All of the sudden, more school seems like a good way to buy some more time. But which school is best?

That's my problem. I'm not amazing at anything. There's too much to pick from. I've boiled things down to "probable lists", but I still don't know which are more important. Interest tests return results ranging from "psychiatrist" to "talk show host". I think either might be fun. It's simply too much. What I need is sound advice. I've been told to shoot for things like "Doctor" and "Lawyer". Oddly enough, "Lawyer" seems to sweep the board and be the most probable. No one who knows me well has ever told me to be a doctor. People who know me well, know me somewhat, or just "look at me" seem to return "Lawyer". It's somewhat odd that that's the most suggested profession. My hangup there is that I don't think I could ever get into law school. Although I guess I could try. Stay tuned for the awkward "I want to go to law school" conversation with my parents! I do enjoy reading legal documents.

In the early 1900’s you could either become a farmer or you could run a shop. Typically, you picked the one you preferred and even if you were only somewhat successful, you considered yourself blessed.

Again, too many options. Given those options, I would select "shopkeeper", unless my family already had a profitable, established farm. Although I associate farms with hot muscled men working on them, but "shopkeeper" might be the better long-term solution.

I think, reading that just made me glad to know I'm not the only one who feels overwhelmed with choices every day.

( Ye Listte O' Things to be Done )

...If anyone can think of anything I ought to be doing that isn't on the list, let me know!

Things are actually going okay.

So why am I upset? I think I am tired...

I was doing to tl;dr about something but...

• I keep making icons
• This is not an HTML list, but rather me inserting the HTML bullet.
• There is no three or four.
• sometimes bargains start when you look into her eyes.

My mom didn't get her laptop on Black Friday (note: None of you should know she intended to get one), however she got two Wii games for $10 (each). Wii Carnival games and Chicken Shoot. Chicken Shoot is worth about $10, and kinda amusing for a while. It's like Duck Hunt with a goofy spin.

Wii Carnival games could very well be worth up to $30-- But the thing is, carnival games are something you play twice a year, maximum when the carnival is in town. That is roughly about how often I think most people will play this. Family functions and the like, when you need some dumb games everyone can play. I would pay up to $30 for it. Possibly $35. Any more than that is kinda overpriced.

Hey people in LJ world. I'm tried as hell and thought I'd ramble about something.

Trouble is, I don't know what to ramble about so have a keymash:

Now I feel better. Sitting back from my computer, trying to read it, I read...

Hidley winkey do-grasaflab! Dereubi e huhgurrrugh whoops. Transunicorn kurt. Under into the right thermaful the yak preffisdt nargamramfuchit. Dextervador Agmonsopouls.

And it kinda dissolves there. So I'll write you guys a story about a yak buying milk.

Once upon a time, in the land of furries there lived a young yak name George. George lived with his mother, Natalya and his brother Natasha. Natasha was busy doing a drag show, and Natalya was blind, so young George had to go into town to buy milk.

"But mom!" he said, breaking correct English syntax by starting a sentence with a conjunction, "I'm too young to go into town alone at this time of night!". His mother assured him he'd be fine. Her words didn't make him feel better, but he knew he would have to do it anyway.

He started walking into town. It was a short walk, only a mile and a half at most. As he walked, he began to hum to himself. He hummed his favorite song and forgot how nervous he was. However, his favorite song distracted him and he took a wrong turn. He was now headed for the Dangerous Bog. It was named "Dangerous' Bog", because it was owned by "Old Man" Alvin Dangerous. George did not see the numerous warning signs, or murky bog water, and he plunged right in.

It surprised him quite a lot. While he was trying to get himself unstuck, he head a bubble pop at the surface. He began to worry. It was a Boggly. The Bogglies lived in the bog, and would eat anything! Or that's what Old Man Dangerous said. He said that they didn't eat him when he went to collect the rent, because the new owners might not let them live there.

The Boggley moved up to George. Suddenly, just before it was close enough to chomp off his fatty yak leg, it rose above th surface. "Well you seem to have gotten yourself stuck there!" it exclaimed, before laughing in his face. George was embarrassed. He would rather be eaten than have an ugly slimy creature laugh at him.

George explained to the boggley that he was trying to buy milk for his blind mother, but the boggley refused to help. Eventually it got bored laughing at him, so it swam away. George drowned, and his mother never found out, because the wind slammed the door and she assumed he came home. George's transvestite brother was on so many drugs he forgot he ever had a younger brother at all.

MORAL: Don't hum. It's distracting, and that's bad.

Peewee Herman is not a good role model for children.

( And now the meme )

I made lythdan do it for me, so now I have to post it, as per number seven.

1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - a fandom, a song, a colo(u)r, a photo, a word, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favourite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

A list of odd updates.

1. I haven't felt like reading lately. Septimus Heap will have to wait for a while longer.


2. Bert got accpted to The Netherworld, but I'm pretty sure the mods think I'm an idoit. TT.TT (Double waterfalls).


3. The RPG system is going pretty well. I'm nearly finished with chrater creation, but I need to make levels and things now. Also I think I may need more of a plot.


4. In refrence to my last list item, I am not going to have the linear maps I originally planned, but they will fairly small, rather than having a huge expansive world for charaters to get lost in. This also cuts down travel time by about half. ("You can build your charater in the cave!")

...Do you ever google image search the spice girls and think that, just somehow, they can be blamed for the way the world is today?

Fondant., which is a malleable sugar-based... something is often used for decorating cakes.

Fondant has it's place-- I'm not saying it's horrible I'm saying it has it's place.
Your fondant:cake ratio should be about 1:4 (based on volume). You should never have more fondant than cake! I also believe that you should never have more icing then cake.

It's called a cake. Not a fondant. You're not making the cake just so you have something to set your fondant on-- You're making the fondant so your cake looks better. Cake > Fondant.

Say something that you've always wanted to say to another person. Don't tell who is who. Oh, and just for fun, I will not confirm or deny any of these, but I will tell you if you're one of the five.
( You! Person! )

I have a tl;dr about my life but I'm not sure what to even say about it. Anyway ...

• Leave me a comment saying "GUREITO!"
• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions

( Meme in which I am asked oddly specific questions... )

On a side note, isn't Tron-carpet Peach so awesome?

Yeah, I know I do too many memes! This one also VIA lythdan.

- Take five books off your bookshelf.
- ♥ Write the first sentence
- ♣ Write the last sentence on page fifty
- ♠ Write the second sentence on page one hundred
- ♦ Write the next to the last sentence on page one hundred fifty
- • Write the final sentence of the book
- Let your friends guess what book it is.

Book I

♥ For several years I have kept an eye peeled for an authoritative necrology of words presumed dead.
♣ Wood moldings of carved knosps and ongles might have surrounded a ceiling painted with a scene of Greek gods and goddesses riding chariots across the scrow.
♠ Lacking a real sentence, this is the second line Hoodpick A miser or skinflint.
♦ But since the 1700s the phrase has implied a quick change of expression from happy to sad as a result of an unexpected and unfortunate occurrence.
• The barb of being called a two- or more-faced Janus may therefore soon loose its sting and emerge as a coveted compliment for all exponents of the creative process.

Book II

♥ Welcome to the wonderful, astonishing and intriguing world of astrology.
♣ They should keep up water intake throughout the day to maintain the Ares hot/cold balance.
♠ The Cancer woman simply wants you to meet her family, just as she wants you to meet her friends and her cat- because they are a living, breathing part of her life that she cherishes.
♦ This quote made headlines, and in typically Libran fashion, Lennon immediately tried to restore the balance by defending his remarks, saying he was merely musing on his preceptions of the Bible-belt south with a friend.
• See also precession.

Book III

♥ It is night on the Marram Marshes; a full moon shines down on the black waters and illuminates the nighttime Things who are going about their business.
♣ "You are just some unwanted kid my gullible father brought home one night."
♠ Then someone, probably one of the more senior Wizards (as Marcia felt is was a lot of responsibility for her young Apprentice), would place the last piece, the Stopper, in the hole at the top, and Marcia would walk out, free at last, leaving the Shadow trapped inside, like a lobster in a lobster pot.
♦ He had known where is was with the wolverines and he had known where he was with the carnivorous tree-- they had wanted to eat him.
• The last of his brothers had accepted him.

Book IV

♥ To be born a 'woman' as opposed to a 'female' takes more than just being born with the 'correct' reproductive organs.
♣ The linguistic features that index femininity linguistically also index heterosexual identity, because of the crucial role played by compulsory heterosexuality in the construction of gender identity and gender relations.
♠ Harvey claims that camp talk uses two key templates to drive a wedge into the supposed natural and unproblematic relationship between language and identity.
♦ As we noted in chapter 2, the production and labeling of categories is a key function of language in relation to sexuality.
• In this book we have tried not only to give a sense of what has already been achieved, but also to stimulate present and and future researches to think imaginatively about what might be.

Book V

♥ The idea of eternal return is a mysterious one, and Nietzsche has often perplexed other philosophers with it: to think that everything recurs as we once experienced it, and that recurrence itself returns ad infinitum!
♣ Then she walked him to the station, and he gave her his card a a farewell gesture.
♠ He yearned for real life, for the touch of people walking side by side with him, for their shouts.
♦ He said it kindly, as if apologizing to Tereza for not being able to shoot her if it was not her choice.
• The strains of the piano and violin rose up weakly from below.

I couldn't give thus fandom tags because that would just give away the answers. Also Deeg will know the two easy ones, so I ask her to wait until other have had a shot.

ABOUT YOU / YOUR JOURNAL

What is your LiveJournal username? How did you come up with it?
turkish_coffee. I thought "What would be a good LJ username, which is a touch odd, somewhat obscure but actually quite boring? The object I came up with was Turkish Coffee, which is strong coffee made from a special kind of something.

On a side note, it is one of the random foods people in Animal Crossing (Gamecube) and Animal Crossing Wild World (DS) will talk about. So it also has some meaning for me there.


Have you renamed before? If so, what were your old names? If you haven't renamed, what names would you want to rename to? Never renamed. I'm not sure what I'd rename to. I don't think speake2eye_aboot would even work. Which would also be a Keeping Up Appearances reference.

How much does your userinfo say about you?
No idea. I'm not sure I can accurately be summed in any collection of English words. Commenters may have differing opinions.


How long have you been on LiveJournal?
Since January 17th 2008. Almost two years.


What is the longest amount of time you've gone without posting?
Just over a month. About 7 weeks, I guess.

On average, how many entries do you post per day? (Divide how many total entries you have by how many days you've been on LJ.)
170 entries / 730 days = .23287671~ on average. I would have estimated that to about two a week (170 /(730 / 7) = 1.6301~, so about two a week).

What are your posts normally about?
The Meme tag seems to have been used the most (compared to my other 136 tags), at 26 times. Mostly memes stolen from lythdan. After I post this, the tag will be used 27 times!

Is your LiveJournal friends only? Why or why not?
No. I'd honestly be flattered if I had a stalker. I like to talk to random, odd people about whatever. I also like that I have a theoretical audience, to whom I can shout things at. Perhaps some one will hear. Perhaps some one will benefit. Or perhaps not.

And I am taking this way to seriously.

Does your LiveJournal have an actual title or are you merely USER @ LiveJournal?
It has a name. "Let's make a deal!". Which is a reference to the old gameshow of the same name. They recently brought it back, and let Wayne Brady host. He's actually a good host for it, as he has little one-line jokes, and dumb gags which are good in a situation where you're not expecting comedy. He's wonderful at making people laugh, when he's not trying to be all SRS BSNS comedian.

How long do you see yourself staying on LiveJournal?
A while. I really do like it a lot. I'm not sure why, exactly.

ABOUT YOUR FRIENDSLIST

How many people are on your friendslist, not counting private journals, media journals, etc?
17 friends, 14 mutal friends and 10 other stalkers.

Why do you choose to add a person to your friendslist?
Either I know them from somewhere, in which case the content of the journal is irrelevant, or they have an interesting journal.

How often do you read your friendslist?
At most three times a day. Usually about once a day. At the least two times a week. It all depends on the mood I'm in.

Do you use filters when viewing your friendslist?
Sometimes I want to skip group entries.

How much do you talk to people on your friendslist off of LiveJournal?
Depends on the person. lythdan, I talk to though AIM and whatnot a LOT. marty_unleashed I talk to on AIM when she's on and I have something to say. bleedingrosedg I talk to in person a LOT. I am on the phone with her while doing this meme.

Do you do friends cuts? Why or why not?
No. I've never had that many friends to merit one.

Do you regularly participate in friending memes? If not, how do you normally find people to friend?
I want to, but I feel all sad when no one wants to firend me. ;(

How often do you add new friends to your friendslist?
Whenever I meet fun people with LJs!

Do your friends have to have things in common with you?
Eh, erm, sometimes? Possibly?

ABOUT YOUR ICONS / USERPICS

How many userpics do you get maximum? How many of those slots do you actually use?
15. All of them.

Do you mostly use icons made by yourself or by others?
I like to use my own, but I think I've used more made by other people.

Do you have your own icon community? How often do you post in it?
No. Sometimes I dump off icons I make here.

What fandoms are most frequently seen in your userpics?
Shock Treatment, sometimes Pani Poni Dash. I have quite a few Clue (the move) ones.
There's one from Maze, and one from Are you Being Served (which is my default because someone complained).


How do you find icons to use?
Make them, or steal them.

How often do you upload new icons to use in your userpics?
Whenever the mood takes me.

Which of your userpics do you use the most?


Which of your userpics do you like the most?


The old minimum number of userpics was three. Could you see yourself "surviving" on three userpics now?
NO. I need my 15! Well okay, I guess I could if I had to.

What do your userpics say about you?
"He's nuts. Don't talk to him."

Subject says it all. Just thought I would let you all know.

In other news I made a flowchart describing my HS nurse's office here for your viewing pleasure.

I do like flowcharts. more than people. You can always trust a flowchart. They never discriminate because of age, or what they assume you might know. They sort of take for granted that your mother had to find you trying to sleep behind the doughnut shop (second best in the country!) because you'd rather not be home. (Well, okay, I'm embellishing here a touch she was out looking for me and found me in front of it with an intent to do that.)

I'm not sure if I want to talk to people, at least in person. I'm feeling like talking online is a better option at the moment, and I am not sure why this is.

I guess what I am trying to say is You know who you are and fuck you and your unappreciative mother. It really is not my problem that you have three kids and a harpy bitch who likes to flap her bat wings and cast Nagromancy (yes, "nag-ro-mancy") spells to make you spend time and money for her to say "fuck it!". It's pretty much "Thank you but you took to long so your princess just walked the fuck home."

Edit: Oh, I forgot to say that in addition to that on Friday I went to look at curtains with my granny and they're a really nice deep red color, which can only be described with a (puedo-)Franco word ("Mystique").

Alone.

I wouldn't want to have to see people around me cry over me.

Last meal? I don't think I can pick anything. Something with cheese. I like cheese. A lot.

No idea where I collected some, but the ones I made myself (I.E. "Cropped and resized") are below.

( The cut )

And one I made actually has text!

This Cake Wrecks post got me thinking about names. Particularly one of the comments. Kimberly (as she spells it) has to arge with people that her name really is spelled -E-R-L-Y and not -E-R-L-E-Y. This got me thinking about my last name.

Legally, it is spelled D-A-M-O-R-E. Which I how I spell it. Except, I always write in an apostrophe. D-apostrophe-A-M-O-R-E. I've actually had to fight with my teachers in school over this. Like I don't know how to spell my own last name. Truth is my father dropped it, and then my mother never used it either. I will say that in all fairness it was in the system sans-apostrophe. Fair enough.

But online. No online forms allow it. This means that I can't write my name the way it should be because some one is lazy. In fact, what about all the names that have accents and other special characters? If the name is supposed to have a diacritic mark, then it should have a diacritic mark!

It's not so much that I'm upset when people have it wrong. I'm upset when they argue with me over it.

Then again, I like in a place where A'makalqueifanda is a sensible name.
