THE FUUUUUTURE.

Today the woof and I realized something.

Woof: "You know, with all the anime we're watching on these monitors, all hunched over, there's starting to be a distinct Issue."
Sqrl, Woof: "Flatbutt."
Woof: "These chairs..."
Sqrl: "Not meant for extended sitting. But! We have a couch. And a big TV."

So we eyed our various cables and monitors and wires and stuff, and hooked up my PC to the big screen TV. SQRL gets equipped with DOUBLE SCREEN TECHNOLOGY.

Sqrl: "ASSIMILATION! I have TAKEN OVER our media center with my technological knowledge and my wirelike tendrils! BWAAAHAHAHA"
Woof, panting from hauling wires and PC bits around: "YOU took it over?"
Sqrl: "Yes, I took it over using my woof. Delegation is important. OW. Stop punching."

Thus I can now enjoy minor comforts in life in a slightly more comforting way than before...

Sqrl, playing LOTRO in high-res: "RUN, YOU LITTLE BASTARDS! I'M HOBBITZILLA!"

...And tomorrow we can take it apart, install our new video cards, and put it back together.

Woof: "Wait, we can what?"
Sqrl: "They're approaching from Chelmsford at a rapid rate."
Woof: "...well, hooray for living in the future."
Sqrl: "I love living in the future! Except when I'm living in the past, but even then it looks like the future did in the past! Bwahahaha ow stop it."

Meantime, this is the perfect setup to watch Ghost in the Shell on. I -will- become a technological wunderkind, interfaced with all around me. Possibly with USB. I... need a USB port. *mumble*

Also watching...

Kamen Rider Den-O, episodes 1-4: The story of a delicate, gentle, unlucky Japanese teenager who has multiple men in shiny full-body synth-leather outfits fighting over possession of his body. Also, these men are (in the form of) demons, and one of them brags frequently about the length and intensity of his climaxes.

...there are days when, really, I don't even need to ACTIVELY be gay, the universe just takes care of that pesky lingering heterosexuality FOR me.

(Yes, no part of what I just said is made up, but yeah, there's more going on than that. Still! It is primarily Kamen Rider Body Hopping, and it's sorta neat. I'm likin' it.)

EDIT: Watched episodes 5 and 6 before the woof went to bed. There's a new dude who can possess our hero's body, whose superpower is lying really hard, except that because this is a Kamen Rider show, he's going to be taught how to LIE FOR JUSTICE, I know it. Also, he threw a fishing pole THROUGH a monster. But to be fair, he had to top the FIRST dude who is hot for our hero. The first possessor, Mr. Climax, managed the second-best takedown move in all history when he kicked a concrete parking cone twenty five feet straight up and took out a flying monster.

(In case you're wondering, the first-best takedown move in all history is that bit in The Mummy where the weedy guy, Beni, is trying to run away from Brendan Frasier O'Connell and the latter picks up a chair and just WHIPS it into the back of Beni's legs. A glorious maneuver, yet to be topped.)
ANYWAY.

And there was another guy? And he made THIS FACE.


Look at that face. That is the BEST FACE. That is bestface.jpg, that's what it's saved as. Just needs a big ol' DO NOT WANT across the bottom and you have a lolcat submission.

What I'm trying to say is that I'm extremely easy to amuse lately, and will likely only get more so as time passes. I've decided to just give in to the fact that my primary pastime of late is being basically eight years old, and I'm rolling with that.
