It's been four years.
It's time to say farewell.If I ever make it out there, perhaps you'll see me as a game developer. If not, well, then that's that.
Good luck. Friends, foes, and all the great people I didn't get to know about.

TIL the reason why they only let you input three letters in arcade high scores is because those are for your initials.
-
My favorite pastime is watching people play video games that I either don't own or don't play.

It is amazing, but at the same time sad, that a farewell was enough to make the memories I have of high school fade into gray, good or bad. Today, I graduated, and from now on, the only high school memory that will last in my mind is the faint smile on the portraits in my yearbook. But perhaps that's still a good ending... A somewhat positive experience above the many fragmented pieces of joy and sorrow.

Recently finished the wuxia novel The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Highly recommended if you haven't read it yet.

So please

Today, I read through the entire discussion on the stickied thread about player independence in the Roleplaying subforum, after only reading the opening post three years ago. And now, I really wish that I had read everything back then.
People back then talked about every issue I would come to face in these three years, and I still haven't managed to learn all the lessons they've learned in the discussion on my own. Perhaps the most important lesson I've learned is that I should be giving more feedback in general, as a player and as a host. I really had no reason to be this quiet, passive, and timid OOC. It made me feel distant, and perhaps, uninterested and unpassionate.
For anyone who happens upon this post and still has a bit of interest in roleplaying, I seriously recommend you to read that thread in its entirety as well.

Wanted: A mysterious short novel with just seven lines, apparently written by Mark Twain.
I encountered a supposedly translated version (Chinese) of the work, and I tried to look for the original. But the strange thing is that none of the relevant keywords lead me to anywhere, and I've only been able to see more of the same translation by looking up the translated title. I've even dug into Mark Twain's bibliography and still, I couldn't find anything that comes close.
I'm beginning to doubt if it's even real or if it's just some Chinese writer using Mark Twain's name to get theiradmittedly decentshort novel out there.Here's one of the "sources" of the translated text:
https://kknews.cc/history/b49nx5o.html
It pointed to a collection of short novels (written in / translated into Chinese) published decades ago in China. Apparently this short novel even found its way into the textbooks of some Chinese schools.
The translated title, untranslated, roughly means "The Last Page of a Husband's Account Book" and its general summary is that a husband's cheating on his wife while buying expensive clothes to blind his wife and mother-in-law, and the plot is given through the list of expenses.
Another key info is probably that this "novel" was apparently published and Mark Twain got paid for it as if he had written a full-length novel, according to the same sources I've found.
I'd really appreciate it if someone knowledged in the writer's works could help me confirm if this short novel actually exists.

friendship ended with CHROME
now FIREFOX is my best friend
that's what you get for eating so much of my comp's ram that it lags even when scrolling through pages -
TIL 2ch actually has English boards among hundreds of other Japanese boards... And they've managed to be even wilder than 4chan's /s4s/. All twenty-two of them, in fact,
and barely anyone talks about topics relevant to the boards. -
I got another tooth pulled out of me. With this being the third tooth removed over the course of three months, I might just be able to get used to the absolute misery that comes with it.

It's time for wisdom tooth removal, round 2. What a way to end summer vacation.

After nearly an entire year, I've finally finished Mao: The Real Story.
The Chinese translation I read was a bit over 600 pages long, but boy was it a good read.

Today I was told that Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch's plot is basically the plot of the film Yellow Submarine. Something along the lines of "Singers go under the sea to sing monsters to death?"
But yeah I can't look at the Beatles the same way anymore.

I am 25 minutes away from April Fool's. Knowing that by the time I wake up, it still won't be 4/1 for the majority of people here lets me sleep at ease.

Today I discovered the Disgaea OST. And I must say, I wish I had found it sooner. The vocals sound like they're having the times of their lives singing.
