The biggest thing that sucked about basic training was the disconnection from the outside world. Not knowing the current affairs, what's going on with the family and friends, what new gadgets are out, etc. There's something comforting about being kept in the know about things like that. Which is...
So I haven't posted in a good long while. What the hell goes on here these days?
I usually don't write blogs, but seeing as this is my fifth year here, I'll make a exception. How I came to hear all the way to what I'm still doing here. I'm the 33,903rd member of GBAtemp and back when I joined, the community was quite a bit smaller. But life moves on and good things tend to...
I'm looking for a decent pair of headphones. These are the headphones I have now. One of the ear cans has fallen off and is being held up by zip-ties. The sound is really sub par on these things. If the next one I get is not much better, that's fine. I'm not someone who is what some might call a...
This is it, the year I finally get the hell outta the house. Something I've been wanting to do every since I fought my way out of my mother's womb. I'm going to finish up high school, turn 17 and enlist in the Air Force. New things will be experienced, will go places I haven't been and learn to...
So for this upcoming Tempcast, Law, xcalibur, TrolleyDave and I are doing a segment. And if you reply to this topic before 1AM GMT-0, then you can suggest some topics for us to talk about. Remember, these are suggestions, so they may or may not get used. To hear the segment, remember to tune...
I've decided to finish up high school this year so that I can enlist in the Air Force. This means I will be doing 11th and 12th grade in one school year. Won't be the easiest thing in the world, but I'll manage. It feels pretty good, knowing what you're going to do with your life :]
I have a terrible addiction, and it is to my PC. I use it to do school, chat in IRC, play video games, watch tv shows/anime/movies. Sad but true, it's most of my life. Today my parents threatened to take it away if I did not do something for them (I won't go into that). And then my mind wandered...
It's been a while tempers. I haven't posted a real blog post for a good long time. So now seemed like a good time to catch people up on my somewhat mundane life.
Life:
So at the moment, everything is going really well.
- Money is getting tight, but it's I'm getting used to it.
- Grandma...

Today I had a great idea, "I should see Cloverfield cause everyone says the thing is better than sex!" So started the thing up and began to watch. Here is how shit went down.
5 minutes into the film: kinda boring, but hey, it's only 5 minutes in.
10 minutes into the film: I'm feeling kinda...
So next year I'm planning on flying to San Francisco to visit my uncle for a few weeks. This is going to be so much fun :D!!!
I need some suggestions as to what I should go see while I am there.
After a long time of waiting, I am finally getting guitar lessons. Classical guitar lessons to be more specific. On the first lesson, I found out what a classical guitar is, and that I did not have one. Since neither my dad nor I have any knowledge about good classical guitar makers, I have come...
So I was brainstorming and this is what I came up with

2. To have more people on at one time, Wifi Night will be from 6-9pm EST
3. The tourneys will be held once every 4 weeks on the 4th week.
4. There will be a prize...
I will keep this brief. I do not believe I am a getting a proper high school education with homeschooling, and because of that, I am strongly thinking about going to public school. Mainly I was wondering if there was a law that would help me get out of being homeschooled. My first thought is...

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -
@
The Real Jdbye:
the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

Veho:
There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
-
@
Veho:
But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

@
Veho:
Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
