@kjemi: Well then... That's certainly an interesting idea. Good thing neither of my grandmothers have dogs...
Posted in What's your current post count? Posted 7 years ago
N posts. Well, I suppose N+1 posts now. :P
(Where N = 26 at this particular point in time. Seems like I'm not particularly chatty.)

@Kjemi: The funny thing was, it wasn't scary at all. It was just one of those dream things where it's like 'oh, this is happening'. Like, as it was ending, I was thinking "Well, this sucks. I guess I'm not going to get saved. Oh well, at least it's rather painless." It was more of a... realistic surreal thing, I guess. I dunno. Dreams are weird.
Posted in Too Early for Chocolate Milk? Posted 7 years ago
I'm the weird person who doesn't really like mixing mealtime foods. "Breakfast" foods are breakfast only, and so on. (So no pancakes or waffles for dinner.) The only exceptions are A) Breakfast and Lunch may be eaten for Brunch; and B) Leftovers are allowed to be eaten for either Lunch or Dinner. But, again, I'm just weird. :P
Chocolate is just... something I don't like in my breakfast, though. I don't really like chocolate chip pancakes (it tastes weird with the syrup), for instance.
Chocolate milk in general, I don't tend to drink ever. I find it too... smooth, compared to regular milk's 'sharpness'. It's a weird thing to describe, and I hope people know what I mean. Also, chocolate milk makes me thirsty after drinking it, which kinda defeats the purpose of why I drink things... >.>;

I very rarely have dreams, but when I do, they're really vivid, and I remember them pretty well. Such as one that I still remember from many, many years back, where I had wings and could fly.

I actually had one recently, though. It started at the house I grew up in, in the 'down back' area (which is about two acres of land). I now recognize that many of the details were entirely wrong (like the suuuuuper thick forest surrounding everything, rather than just regular-sparse), but at the time, I knew that's where it was. For some reason, all of my family that lived there (i.e. my mom, brother and grandparents) were having a bonfire in the backyard. At night, where it was pitch black.
After a short time, there was some rustling at the edge of a forest, and there was a cougar prowling around. (Which is a thing that could happen. We had cougar warnings every so often around where I grew up.) So, we decided to head up to our house, and managed to make it back safely. For some reason, upon getting in, I was all alone and apparently thought it was a good idea to not turn any lights on, and then decided to head over to my grandparents side of the house. Going through the hallway there, I turned the corner, and was pounced on by the cougar. It had its jaws clamped on my skull, and I could feel myself (thankfully, fairly painlessly, yay dream logic) bleeding out. And then I fell unconscious in the dream and woke up.

That was an, uh, interesting way to start the day, let me just say... XD

@kaderin triste: Same with the ones here in BC. They've gotten so bad, that a state of emergency has been declared for the first time in nearly two decades. Hopefully all the ones across the continent can be extinguished...

Okay, I was browsing another thread in the Bug Report forum, and after scrolling back up, as I was moving to return to the forum, the volt number actually visibly changed to the lower value. So, I don't know what's going on, or what might trigger it. It almost seems to be a time elapse thing, from what I can see, as I'm attempting to get it to replicate.

Edit: So, it seems to be after between 20-30 seconds, and brings me back down to 1937 each time, regardless of how many I have at the time. On Internet Explorer, at least. So far, it hasn't done anything of the sort on Google Chrome. So, I might just have to switch to Chrome for this site. Which I've done now, because I remembered that I can actually edit posts when I have Chrome up.

@Kaderin triste: That's fair enough. We don't have it quite that bad here, it's mostly just an ominous smoky cloud cover. Being surrounded by ocean probably helps.

Alright, I'm actually awake and functional now (clearly I was a lot more tired last night than I thought), but, I've been noticing a few times when I click to go to a new thread (including, apparently as I glance up, this one), my volts number is at a slightly lower value (1937, instead of 2282). I'm not sure if that's because of some sort of server delay regarding posts, or something. I haven't been able to replicate it while trying to, but it has shown up more than once. I haven't been able to figure out if there's a pattern or not. It's not a huge deal, since it seems to fix itself whenever I go to a new page, but it seems like something that you should be made aware of.

@Kaderin triste: So you're the one who sent us all this smoke. You can have it back! I've had enough of this ominous orange sky, thank you very much. :P
The red moon last night didn't help things either...
Posted in How old are you? Posted 7 years ago
I guess it depends on how word is spreading. If it's mostly word of mouth, then chances are that the age of people being told is generally closer to the people who started off here. Which seems to certainly trend to above the 20 year mark. I'm sure as the site becomes more well known, there'll be a more diverse spread of ages.

The colours all complement, there's nothing that's an eyesore, and the outfit has a uniform aesthetic. Even the boots being a different shade to the rest of the outfit isn't too distracting, since there's the yellow to draw your eyes to everything else.

I'd say probably Ground. You have the earthen tones, but not quite enough rough edges for a Rock.

I mean, at least it's food. If I'm being honest, I'll rarely have more than two meals in a day... sometimes only one. Oops. Eating isn't important, right?
