I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD TOMORROW.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO PROBABLY RIDE THE AEROSMITH ROLLERCOASTER AT MGM BECAUSE IT'S THE BEST ROLLERCOASTER. AND I'LL HIGH FIVE STITCH I LOVE THE COLOR BLUE. Seriously though I've been looking forward to this all week. And work pissed me off today so I want to have spite happiness now >: |
Hollywood Tower rocks.
|
That Indiana Jones ride is the best one
|
THAT'S NOT A RIDE.
|
It's cool anyways. I hope they still have it because 2011 parents hate nazis and violence and fun :<
I hope we don't go to the Animal Kingdom. That shit's more boring than Epcot, and Epcot is educational. |
Fuck, Epcot's great.
And the shit with all the dinosaurs in Animal Kingdom is mad decent. |
Epcot is sweet.
|
Animal Kingdom is what happens when someone takes the Lion King and tries to make a whole park based on that. Then they realize "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK" and pad it out with more animals. Also, of all the parks, it's the hottest.
Epcot is cool for eating and shit cause it has all of those restaurants in the different countries. But the educational stuff is hokey. I think there was one ride I really wanted to go on, some test track thing, but it kept breaking down. Like, 3 times while we were waiting. It was a huge line too because it was the only ride at Epcot that was just plain fun and doesn't try to sneak in stuff to teach you about environments and shit. Also, I know it's impossible, but I'm still going to try and pull the sword from the stone this year at the Magic Kingdom. It's like when a quarter is glued to something and you keep picking at it. Fucking Disney >: |
I remember going to epcot when I was young and they showed a video of a little american boy talking through his tellivision to a little chinese girl half a world away. Blew my 10 year old mind.
Shit is real as hell now dawg. Epcot :pickle |
Epcot was always my favorite. I had a Figment piggybank. If I could have, I would have given Disney World the finger and spent my whole vacation at Epcot.
But then, I was the nerdiest kid you ever did see. |
Stuck at the cleveland airport. Pent, we might be here for a while. Can either you or kitsa use your magic ohio powers and get us on our way.
|
I'll need a goat.
|
My daughter is a capricorn.....I'll need to find something else though.
|
Cleveland is a shitty place to be stuck :(
|
we drive to cleveland to get a direct flight. Thought it would be less hassle.
|
Eat some Skyline. I understand that they're up there in Cleveland.
|
Fuck continental airlines. They delayed our flight intil 9pm.
|
Time enough for you to sight-see around glorious Cleveland.
|
If I didn't drive here 3 hours at 2am this morning I wouldn't care as much.
|
|
There's the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I guess. There's a submarine right there on the lakefront you can tour. There's a kickass toy store but I can't remember where it is. The art museum there isn't bad; it's across the street from Case-Western University, which has an awesome silver blob roof.

Hell, people still give me a hard time about hating History of Violence. If I'm a David Cronenberg fan, and you don't even know who the hell he is, I think I can reserve the right to disrespect A Mediocre History of Overhyped Violence >: |
Didja like Crash, though? That's the big question. I think bodily horror is more his speed. Good Night and Good Luck is one of my all time faves, though.
|
Oh yeah, I loved Crash. I think Cronenberg can go loopy with the body horror, though; eXistenZ was this big lumbering thing with awesome ideas and no real narrative drive... I know that was the point, given the genuinely fun twist-after-twist, but it just didn't- quite- work. Compared to Videodrome, at least, which practically forces you to watch it over and over until you figure out what was going on

Heading to houston

Yeah, I know what you mean, sometimes people bring up genuinely good reasons to hate Videodrome, except that there's no way in Hell I can listen to that objectively :lol I just love that movie. I first saw it at a sleepover with my friends when I was thirteen or something, my friend's older brother was watching us and we talked him into getting us R movies from Hollywood Video, and he brought us The Rock, Evil Dead II, Videodrome, and a pizza, That guy was fucking awesome
|
That sounds like pretty much the best night ever. Same thing with me, only we had M-Rated games. :O That Wu-Tang fighter for the Playstation was badass at 4 in the morning hopped up on caffeine.
Also, there are artists/directors/musicians I like, but I can't tell you why, because I usually can come up with more reasons why I dislike the things they put out than why I like them. David Lynch sits right fucking center, along with Andy Warhol. It's not even the cult of personality thing, either, even though they're both pretty interesting. There's a lot I just don't get from 'em, yet they're still a couple of my favorite artists. :\ |
I've never quite gotten the David Lynch thing, outside of Eraserhead. Especially after watching that miserable excuse for a documentary. He sounds very thoughtful when he talks, and he talks quite a bit, and you keep expecting him to make a profound point... except he doesn't. That's not how David Lynch works. He just... goes on about... things. Which is exactly how his movies work; Twin Peaks was good because the fact that it was on television forced him to get to the damn point and actually make a definite narrative statement as to what the hell was going on.
Other than that, his head's in the clouds, his opinions are rambling treatises on nothing in particular, and his movies are like Japanese horror flicks; interesting ideas executed so ambiguously as to be pretty damn half-baked, and you stop expecting any sort of explanation at the halfway mark. Combine that with the slobbering sycophants that put the documentary Lynch together, and you have a frustrating time of it as someone who wants to like him but is frustrated by a lack of valid content |
I like a number of his things. Eraserhead's mad decent. Blue Velvet is great. Wild at Heart is pretty good. And I really liked Dumbland. (:lol)
But I tried to write a paper on Inland Empire, a movie I could barely sit through. I was dying watching it. Same thing with Mulholland Drive, albeit to a lesser extent. He keeps trying to wrap dream logic around life while whenever you try explaining a dream you had, you sound like a fucking asshole. Also, I do like his paintings a bit, so there's always that. And to his credit, he's the only one that's ever made a movie that scares me, so he gets turbo props for that. |

how come the weekly features on i-mockary haven't changed in months also is docmock officially dead GIVE ME SITE INSIGHT GUYS
also true story one time when my girlfriend was younger somebody in the house caught wind of a dead mouse thanks to the scent as it had apparently been a little while and they tracked it to a closet in which they found the mouse dead in the back of a toy ambulance which i think is pretty funny because of course one imagines the mouse being relieved to find an ambulance and expected to get taken in for medical treatment but alas! |
That's funny, but dead mouse smell sucks. The first car I ever had, a neon, had this increasingly horrible stench. It was the middle of summer and we cleaned the car inside and out, couldn't figure out where the hell it was coming from. Nothing under the seats, even pulled out the backseat, nothing in there, nothing in the wheel well. We found out (and this was August, the smell had been worsening all summer) that there was a decaying drowned mouse in the inside well of one of the tail lights. Apparently the early neons had a big problem with watertightness, and I had the very first model to come out. So the mouse had drowned in the tail light and steeped there like a teabag all summer.
Even after removing its bloated and slimy corpse, the car retained a faint scent of death until my mom was in a wreck with it, totaled the car, broke her thumb (airbag bent it all the way backwards). And that was the end of that chapter. |
oh gross. i'm glad i'm drinking tea by the way!
one time my sister had a hamster and it went missing about a week or so later there was a horrible horrible smell throughout the house. the thing had gone under the refrigerator and apparently got stuck, died. nasty. |
Gophers are drawn to our pool. Usually we get a few drownings every summer. They end up in the skimmer looking and smelling like Kitsa tail light mouse. It's disgusting.

A dog bit me on my hand today at work. :(
|
i want to work with dogs. where do you work?
|
Animal control. There was an english pointer who looked so sad, so I went in to pet him, it was fine till he went cujo on me. No wonder this wierd bi-polar dog was in the pound. Working with dogs can be fun though. I just brought back two lab puppies which I had to fostertill they were old enough to adopt out to a home. I got to play with the puppies for three weeks then find them a good home:)

OH CUTE PUPPIES

I went into our animal shelter to buy a license for my dog, and I was behind an old lady who was shoving a terrified cat across the counter at the employees and telling them she wanted it to be euthanized. When they told her that it was a young, healthy cat and they wanted the chance to adopt it out instead, she screeched and insisted and told them that it slept on her legs and kept her up at night and she wanted it dead.
They finally took it from her, and after she left I said something to them about people being insane and horrible and they agreed with me. I figured they were going to keep the cat for a couple of days at least and try to adopt it out. I don't know why I assumed that, but I did. As soon as I got home, I started making calls all over the place for someone from a no-kill shelter to take in this cat. Finally, a couple of hours later I called back and said I had secured a spot for it and that I would come to pick it up. They told me they euthanized the cat 10 minutes after I left. Apparently when someone demands the animal be killed, they have to kill it. That poor cat did nothing more than try to curl up on a cranky old woman's legs, and now it's dead. If I'd known they were going to euthanize it like that, I would have grabbed it out of her arms and run with it. I felt so horrible. I cried and threw up for about three days, and then I cried for a full week after that. Now I won't step foot in the shelter again. |
Wow. What an asshole.
I hate having three cats and I resent the fact that at least two of them will outlive my dog, but I couldn't imagine getting rid of them. I wake up to my face being tickled by whiskers almost every morning, but fuck. They're my cats. |
All shelters are different. We would have kept it if it were adoptable. Of course that depends on how full we are. If we are full of stray animals we have to hold them by law. So we have no room for the owner surrendered animals unfortunately they will have to go. We network like crazy to find homes for all of them and foster out as much as we can.
Those puppies I had were surrendered by the owner who bred the parents. He brought them in too young, still needing to nurse. We begged him to keep them with the momma till they we 8 weeks old then we could take them and adopt them, otherwise they would be put down. He said it was too much trouble and left them with us. I took them, fostered them, bottle fed them three to four times a night, then weaned them to solid food, potty and crate trained them, then found them homes just so they would not be put down. A month before I did the same with a litter of kittens. Dealing with people like you described is why I feel like I do towards people. And she is just the tip of the crazy iceberg I see on a daily basis. Sorry for the rant. tomorrow starts my vacation, and boy do I need it. |

The most that happened when I worked at a humane society was the rabid chihuahua incident. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Kitsa. Internet hug. |
I bet. Too stressful for me.
There's a local dog that hangs out around my house a lot. She has owners and the owner actually came here looking for her once, which is a damn shame because we were going to sneak her away to get her fixed one time but I guess that would be illegal or something - or some rednecks would burn our house down. Anyway, she gets pregnant every few months, and it's terrible. The last time she did, she gave birth to fifteen puppies. Thirteen of them were dead when the owners found them - and the man just made a comment about how he's been waiting so long for a "blue male puppy" to no avail. You fucking prick. The dog is normally out and about in the neighborhood, but sometimes for a week or two she'll disappear. I'm assuming they keep her inside (not their house, maybe a shed or something) for some reason, because when she does show back up she'll be skinny as hell. We keep a big bag of cheap dog food here to feed her all the time, and she often gets left-overs and the like. She's missing an eye and clearly has not received any medical attention for that fact. Such a sweet, happy dog. Such a bunch of fucking stupid hicks. I'm always afraid I'll see her dead in the road. |

My grandma's friend keeps two of her dogs and a cockatiel in their garage. Here. Where's it hot. All the time. They also give their grandkids pets like they're fucking toys or something and the kids almost always end up mortally wounding them. Idiots.
She once offered to babysit my daughter. Lol. |

We have a dog and three cats and all are rescued strays from this same location. And a crested gecko, but he's not a stray. We really can't afford to take in more animals right now. Not while renting.
And we'll be looking for new places to live soon, and it's going to be haaaaard. Also I don't think she's ever been inside a house. If you eat outside she will jump in your face, haha. I tried convincing somebody I worked with to come and take her, and she almost did. |
This thread makes me want to hug my cat. D:

My ex girlfriend collected animals and it was horrible. I couldn't stop her either and it's the reason why I left her. I myself had a dog and 2 quaker parrots that I taught how to talk. Over the 2 years I was with her, my house slowly became filled with 3 dogs, 4 cats, my 2 parrots, 3 more birds, an iguana, 3 snakes, 2 lizards, 3 different aquariums full of fish, and at the end, a pot bellied pig. The house smelled like shit.
It was the last straw when I came home one day and was greeted by a german shepherd holding one of my quakers in its mouth dead. I had no idea why this random dog was in our house, but it killed and ate both of my birds that I had weaned and bottle fed. Hers were fine. She said that someone at work gave her a free german shepherd and so she got it and let it loose in the house then went back to work. I made her leave and take all the animals with her except the dog and pig (which I had grown attached to). I ended up giving the pig to a farm in the country that bred potbellied pigs after my house got foreclosed on but I still have my little chihuahua. |
I love Quaker Parrots. They're like cute, chubby little feathered people. D':
Animal hoarding is so bad, when it gets out of hand. |
Pub's just telling me about how hard he is.
Y'all should send him more dick pics. |
If the leg pics didn't scare him off, I don't know what will
|
We adopted a beagle with a broken leg. Her former owner had run over her leg with his truck and dropped her at the SPCA with the statement "If this dog is too dumb to get out of the way of my truck, I don't want her."
Idiot. Prognosis was not good, but she made a complete recovery anyway, without surgery. :) |

I fucking love animals. It's going to be hard to decide what animals I'll have at a time.
I want a ferret and/or two rats, but I hated cleaning cages, and you have to really make the house safe for them in every crevice. There are some horses on someone's land I pass by when I head home from work, and I usually buy them a $1 bag of organic carrots to feed to them. I probably look pretty out of place; some teen with a mohawk feeding horses. I love those big guys. :tear |

So, I have to finish my final year proposal this week. I'm alternating between 'This is easy, just have some more tea and then write it all' and 'Dude I have no idea what I'm talking about. Seriously. I'll do more research.'
Neither result in actual written work. :( |
