Okay, I´m in another country, like it matters. Because there is something wrong with me, I had to check southparkstudios.com to see if anything happened in the past day. (You know, like you do. ... Shut up.)

Anyway, at home I use Firefox, but this free internet is Internet Explorer. So, I go to the website, and it apparently actually admonishes you if it doesn´t like your browser. In the top right box where it usually says something like "Watch all 150-ish episodes now!" with a picture, it´s got a picture of one of the boys insulting IE6. Cartman says, "Only Jews use IE6" or "IE6 ... seriously?" Stan says, "IE6? Dude, weak." Kyle says, "IE6 ... You Bastard!" And that´s like how frequently I´m getting them when I refresh.

If there are any others, I haven´t seen them. Obviously it was too much trouble to include poor Kenny. But at least they didn´t make one with Butters.

I´m sorry, this is probably not news. But I´m really sunburned. (And I accidentally drank too much Cava at dinner.) It just made me absurdly happy.

I thought of you today when I was ringing up a Spanish-speaker. Was deeply tempted to throw a "platha" at him, just to see what he'd do. And, oh, money is a different thing entirely! I can understand that. When I eat with guys for the first time, I usually get the cheapest thing on the menu, even if it's something disgusting that I'm still going to be tasting like a week later. After that, though, it is so on. Love for food takes over my love for image. I have no pride.

Okay, no, that is really, really hot. Horrible tights are amazing, and I love bows. Your style sounds incredibly individualistic--I'm right there with you on the T-shirts, but if I tried to pull off anything more, I'd get clubbed to death on the streets for sheer fugly. Seriously, more power to you. I've still got this super badass mental image of you, by the way.

No, I didn't need witness signatures...that's weird. What's that for, liability or something? I'm going to ask about that if I pop by the DMV anytime soon for voter registration, maybe.

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

Oh my god. This fucking Gmail shit ate another comment. I gotta stop replying via Gmail. So, yeah. Because I am so behind, just to keep up, here is a convenient summary:

- Popcorn, dope
- Impressing boys, unnecessary if you have confidence and you seem to have it whereas I have ... less?
- Spanish-speaking persons, horrible; purchase videogames sometimes
- You say individualistic, I say one step above hobo rag doll
- If I die and they pull my corpse out of a flaming pile of wreckage maybe little Billy won't get my eyes because I didn't have two witnesses sign my license, but I don't live in Colorado or anything, so who knows what laws you people have

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

Ooh, ooh, summary! I'm cool with this. Lemme try.

-I do like me some dope. I kid! Popcorn gets stuck in my teeth, though.
-I'd call that "awareness of your actions," and I lack that quality, so good for you.
-There are a shitload of Spanish-speakers where I live! 30% of my graduating class was Hispanic, which isn't Spain-Spanish, but still. Come to Colorado. Visit my store and ask for "the hot Asian chick." Or not.
-Hobo rag dolls are way sexier than dime-a-dozen preps in buckled Mary Janes.
-Okay, first of all, I KNOCKED ON WOOD. And second, Colorado has laws like, "You can totally turn left on a red arrow if there's not a sign nearby that says you can't." It makes no sense. No one knows anything here.

Yeah, that took me too long for a summary.

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

This conversation has been going on for, like, ever.

- Well, I mean, that's why I floss systematically, all the popcorn
- Okay, but there's awareness of your actions, and then there's being a crazy skank, which is kind of an apt description of me
- If I ever do come to Colorado, I will come to your store and ask for the hot Asian chick -- promise
- Shut up! I wear Mary Janes!
- That .... makes no sense

Isn't this distilled way of doing things kind of awesomely streamlined? But then, also not.

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

This is totally one of the more recent conversations, too. Just walk away. You can put a stop to all this. Just walk away and we will spare your lives.

-Mint floss is bomb. Keeps away the cavity creeps.
-Are you really? We went from you making good impressions with boys to being a crazy skank. I feel like I missed a step.
-Wait, hopefully I'll have quit by then. Or gotten to the point where people bother to actually learn my name.
-Oh, I do too! Being a dime-a-dozen prep, I'm sure they look better on you, is what I meant.
-It's Colorado. It snows in June.

Mmm, oh baby, it was so much easier the second time!

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- The SP quoting needs to stop. I mean, I'm sure as hell not gonna stop, but it probably would be good for the economy or something.
- Good answer: You have to impress them before you sleep with them
- Better answer: One can be a skank and still impress boys
- Best answer: I wasn't being quite literal
- Although I was asked at work repeatedly to refrain from wearing shorts skirts
- If I go into the store they'll be all, hello, good afternoon, and I'll just say, May I please speak to Imaginaaation? And they'll be like, That's an intangible concept and no, you may not
- Mary Janes are awesome in all forms
- Yuck

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-I keep quoting things because I know you're catching them, and, terrifyingly, I absolutely cannot help myself. (Speaking of the economy, Kyle's speech at the end of the Canada on Strike episode totally turned me on. I wish I were kidding.)
-Depending on how much they've had to drink?
-Sometimes being a skank is impressive in and of itself, I think.
-About the crazy part or the skank part?
-God, how I envy you and your short skirts! They are so liberating. And ventilated.
-Haha! The trick is drawing out that "a" to the right length. You'd have a better shot if you asked for "Foodstamp," because GameStop doesn't pay shit.
-They're pretty fucking sweet. I've got five pairs of the same shoes, and it's worth it.
-New point: I wanted to stay up and respond to everything because I work all day tomorrow, but I can't keep my eyes open, damn it!

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- I'm probably missing something
- Aw, that little speech was ridiculous and hilarious
- Come to think of it, yeah, there's an inverse correlation
- Agreed
- The skank part
- My secret dream is to go pantsless all the time
- OMG! Social commentary! Shame on you, GameStop!
- Which shoes? I'm a sucker for Campers, if you want to know the truth -- they're kind pricey but they make heels possible and they last a while
- Well, now I'm behind again
- Fuck

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Oops, I forgot about this thread.
-I was in macroeconomics when that episode aired. I quoted him on my final.
-I like crazy skanks, anyway. I nearly applied at Hooters once(not that I have any).
-I'm currently living your dream.
-GameStop makes me want to die. Oh! What games do you have for your DS?
-Well, I'm poor(ish), so they're basically cheap Mary Jane knockoffs. They're heels with buckles on them, and they go so well with offensive ankle socks. Campers are beautiful! How much do they cost?
-I was behind for a long, loooong time. But I'm doing this now, so help me god.
-Buck up!

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- It's cool, there were so many
- Macro? Ha! I'd have failed that shit so fast
- You must be brilliant
- Wait, this is the annoying bullet-point thread
- I hear they take anyone
- To be completely honest? Underwear only at the moment
- It must have some redeeming qualities. Right? Anyway: I have the Simpsons Game, and Mario 64 DS. Everything else is GBA stuff -- I refuse to buy a new game until I at least finish one, which is a problem I often have
- They run anywhere from about $100 to $150 -- I have two pairs, and they are the most comfortable shoes in the universe. I couldn't wear heels at all if not for Campers
- I bucked

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Oh my god, it's 4:38, and I am suddenly moved to respond to this.
-Nono, all the tests were open-book, and the teacher thought I was "funny" because I wrote things like "use fancier tablecloths" as a method of boosting restaurant sales.
-Also, I'm not attending a good school right now, and it shames me to admit that.
-I like this thread!
-I woke the fuck up before I applied, but seriously, do you think they'd actually take an A-cup?
-Me too! Undies and glasses. Hawt.
-Well, I get a 30% discount at Barnes & Noble, and I get to tell a million people a day that we DO NOT have fucking Wiis in stock.
-Teehee, I was going to shyly ask you if you'd like to hit me up via wi-fi, but in retrospect, I think multiplayer DS shit is random. I feel silly. Moving right along.
-My god! Besides being purdy, why are they expensive? Are they pretty well-built?
-I like bucking!

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- I think I woke up at like 3:30 a.m. after having fallen asleep on my computer (I do it, like, every night) and felt the need to reply to something
- Look, humor is totally a valid form of response in academic settings; I'd never even enroll in econ, so there you go
- A lot of people don't attend good schools -- it has nothing to do with your intelligence or whatever
- I have heard -- but forget where, so take it with a grain of salt -- that you don't need boobs to work there (OMG cue numerous Butters/Kyle-works-at-Raisins fics)
- Um, yeah, I also usually take out my contacts and do this in glasses (which are reallllly ugly and I don't wear them in public)
- A 30 percent discount at B and N would make anything worth it to me, oh my God
- Yeah, you don't want to play The Simpsons game -- but I'd totally try to do wi-fi with you, in theory, assuming I could figure it out
- They're the fucking solidest shoes ever except for Fluevogs, which are more expensive (or Docs, ditto, which I wear a lot in the winter); they're Spanish; I walk a great deal and they have made it for over a year without falling apart or even beginning to

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-I'm trying to write shit but it is just not happening, so, reply time!!
-I only took macro because I didn't want to take some other "how the world works" class, really.
-Oh, seriously, thank you for saying that...my classmates seem to think otherwise.
-Golly, Ben Barrett totally wrote that one, didn't he?
-What do they look like?
-Yeah, it is pretty fucking awesome, but it raises the question as to why I'm not just working there instead.
-I've actually heard that the Simpsons game was pretty funny. And I guess Mario is only local wi-fi, damn it, so next time you come to Vail to watch a movie or whatever, let me know.
-I had to google Fluevogs, and now I'm in love, oh god. I have sort-of-Doc knockoffs, but they're already getting a little beaten up halfway through the year.
(-My cat was apparently sitting in my closet for the last two hours, and he just jumped out and scared the hell out of me.)

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- You always beat me to reply time
- Take it from someone who went to a "good" school -- education and name brands are in many ways a sham, and there are plenty of fucking morons at good schools (I could soapbox on this for days)
- I believe he wrote it based on an RP
- My glasses? Uh, they're purple, have oval lenses, and are greasy as fucking hell
- It's funny, but extremely tedious, and the gameplay is extremely poor; it's only worthwhile if you love the Simpsons (which, I did)
- The Mario connection games are all face-off star collections, and ... I'm pretty good at those, but come on
- Fluevogs go on sale a lot; Docs last forever (and take nearly as long to break in) so they're actually kind of an investment
(- Why is your cat so much cooler than I am? I want to sit in the closet for two hours)

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-It's because I have nothing better to do.
-I would love to hear your soapbox rant, seriously, because I think I might be sitting on the opposite end of the schooling spectrum.
-Did he? That explains a lot. RP is so awkward. I tried it for about two days and got too shy.
-Your glasses actually sound quite awesome! I wish I could pull off colored frames.
-Is that the one that's a parody on a bunch of other games? I like the Simpsons, but I haven't seen it for a long time.
-Ugh, I haven't actually started Mario, yet; the controls are throwing me off--why can I not run with my arrow buttons??
-They sound like they're worth it, though. Are they heavy?
(-I've been sitting in a closet for nineteen years. NO JUST KIDDING. The cat sleeps about 20 hours a day, though. Lazy ass creature.)

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- I actually have tons of actual work to be doing and yet this is much better
- Ugh, I can't put it in this thread. Boards?
- It's basically cyber sex, isn't it? I guess I would try it, but to publish it, it would have to be pretty heavily edited
- Ew, they're horrible. I don't pull them off, trust me; I wear contacts
- Yeah, it parodies shit relentlessly, which is very funny, but it's just not the best gameplay ever, which is lame and frustrating
- I have no idea -- mine works fine (Shouldn't you know this shit? You're a GameStopper)
- Docs are really fucking heavy; Fluevogs, not so much
- I would go back to sleep if I didn't have real things to do -- WHY AM I REPLYING TO THINGS? BAD!

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Yeah, actually, I have three speeches and a music report to write, but I honestly don't care about them right now.
-Boards it is. Who starts, me or you?
-Well, I was trying one of the comms here, which is basically in-character journals and MSN (though I never got to that part). I could not imagine posting fic based on it either, unless you are both hella good players. (I know, stop saying "hella.")
-Lololol, I'd wear contacts, but I have tiny Asian eyes.
-Maybe I'll rent it and make someone else play it while I watch, then. Yeah, that sounds good.
-If I were a good employee, I'd want to know everything about every game ever, but I think I'm sort of a joke at the store.
-I have to ask: fluevog. Is that pronounced like it looks? If so, I suddenly feel all fancy and Swedish.
-REPLYING GOOD. WORK BAD.

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- I'm replying to you from a fucking Mac store, how sad is that?
- I think I replied to this already, but I can reply to it twice, that's my prerogative
- Do you want to start? Waiting for me to start will cause massive delays
- My eyes are stupid
- The Mac store was not a good place to do this
- I have no idea how it's pronounced. I have possibly been pronouncing it incorrectly this entire time. There's no what to know
- I seriously feel like I've failed you. I promise to never go away ever again

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Oh my god, Macs. I am so fucking sorry. (I'm especially sorry if you're a huge fan of Macs, which I am not.)
-This is your first reply. You're second-guessing because we've been talking in circles for so long, teehee.
-I'll start writing it. After I look back in this thread so I can remember what we were talking about.
-I want a Big Mac.
-I've done that with the names of Pokemon, and it ruined my life. I don't know how to pronounce the names of some of my fanfics.
-DON'T EVER LEAVE ME. Oh, I am so selfish.

It's past midnight. HAPPY FUCKING BIRTHDAY!!!! I'm working on shit for you, I promise, and I'm so pissed off it'll be late. SO PISSED. Please have the most amazing day ever!!!

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- I hate Macs, both the computers and the company. I feel I am justified in saying this because I've always used Macs exclusively in newsrooms, and they really do suck -- I don't know why people think they never break or crash or lock up, because in my experience they do it all the time and you really can't force-quit them
- I can do it when I'm not sitting on the floor writing LJ replies on Andrew's computer which is on top of a box
- Ew, Big Macs are gross. Have nuggets
- Don't be pissed! And THANK YOU, oh my god. (It's extremely fucking sad how I can be having the best time with like, real flesh-and-blood friends, and I'm like, huh, I wonder what Foodstamp's up to.) I now know your birthday's in December and at the rate I work I will have to start something two months ago to get it to you. Advance apologies!

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Oh, I'm relieved. I think my old newspaper class used them, too. My hatred doesn't have a professional basis, but a Mac once burned the shit out of my legs when it overheated, which is reason enough for me.
-I'll try to do it. Writing on the floor isn't fun. Unless you're wasted or something, maybe. (By the way, I hope you are having super phun thymes!!!)
-I love Big Macs. Nuggets scare me, because I used to eat the dark meat ones way back when, and they always had these random chunks of fat in them (which you needed to hear about).
-I want to end every thread with HAPPY BIRTHDAY now, but that would get really old really fast. I hope it was the best day ever. (That makes me happier than it should; if I didn't miss you, I'd totally tell you to forget all about me and kick it with non-online people from now on.) Don't even worry about my birthday. I barely celebrate them myself.

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- Fuck Macs. They overheat like bitches and then try to hump you and shit. Fuck them
- I HAD THE MOST FUN TIMES EVER ... and completely missed the fuck out of you/fandom/this, you have no idea
- I had nuggets on the drive back, when I was forced to eat at a McDonald's, which in all honesty I do just about never
- Oh my god, like I said two hyphens up, I was actually walking around being like, THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME, and then all of a sudden I'd remember how much I missed being a big online loser and writing fan porn and falling asleep on my computer while trying to catch up on all the fucking replies I constantly owe you. I think this might be unhealthy but I do not care, oh my god
- (I realize this is like a five-month-away promise but I swear to god I will try to make everything right in the world because in a way, 20 is the scariest birthday ever.) And, nonparenthetically, if I wasn't clear yet, I missed you too, OH MY GOD

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-Yeah, I hate it when they do that. Though if Justin Long from the Mac commercials wanted to hump me, I'd be okay with it.
-You should tell me about it in really vague terms!! Or use some elaborate fandom metaphor or something. You know how badly I missed you, I think. I'm SO glad you had fun!
-Are you just not a fast food person or whut?
-Ugh, I don't care how tacky this is; I am so happy you didn't remember your real life and just go, "Oh right, this is waaaay better" and abandon me us forever. Soooo happy. On the plus side, you're totally caught up on replies!
-(Fuck my birthday. I don't want to be 20. There was so much shit I was supposed to have done by then. I cannot come to terms; it's really pathetic.) GOD I MISSED YOU TOO. Right now, I'm seriously way happier than I've been for the past few weeks.

[sekrit-omg.livejournal.com]

- OMG Not John Hodgman?
- Here you go. (http://www.slate.com/id/2143810/)
- I hope I wrote that link correctly
- I should just write you an e-mail about it or something. Maybe I will! (I think)
- Not really. But then, I live in, like, cities and shit
- But now I'm behind again. And I think having a real life kind of makes fandom more fun, and vice-versa
- (I want to be 20 again. I AM SO FUCKING OLD.) Oh, and SO FUCKING HAPPY you're back. For now

[imaginaaation.livejournal.com]

-OH MY GOD. YOU KNOW PC'S NAME. YOU ARE SO AWESOME.
-Ooh, thank you for linkage! Those commercials really are mean, but really, the whole ad campaign failed on me, because I just got confused and thought Long was supposed to be the PC. I'm not capable of thinking kindly off Macs.
-(Somewhere, on some old hard drive, I actually have MacxPC porn. I wish I were kidding.)
-E-mail. Shit! I need to respond to one of yours, don't I! Let me find it. It got buried under spam and ff.net alerts and stuff.
-Man, I live off dollar menus. Or, as you would say, $ menus. Or on ff.net, menus.
-Not that far behind, and I totally agree with you; you sort of need a balance for these things to be more appreciable.
-(You're not old!! I know I just whined about my age, but really, I think people should only panic at about 75. Maybe not even then.) I'M TALKING TO YOU, oh my god. I feel goooood.
