About this blog

This is a blog where I just post my thoughts and opinions in general, where those thoughts would be too long for a status update.

The Pirate Bay has been raided!

I'm actually pretty surprised I haven't seen this all over the place everywhere I go yet...   This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion but here I go anyway.   I read in the news today that The Pirate Bay has been seized by police. This is part of an article by TorrentFreak     This is sort of stirring up a bit of controversy. But I have agree with Rich in this video here.     Now I'm no angel. I was pretty stupid when I was a teenager and I didn't know exactly how big so

Bored?

Be creative! Outside is the place to be! Read a book! Exersice a while! Do something useful or helpful!     There are always ways to conquer boredom.

I'm about to cry. Faith in humanity somewhat restored.

It melts my heart to know that people like this exist. This is beautiful.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAcFWdQymPQ   I just heard this story on the news. This cop was driving around doing his normal patrolling when he happened upon this young child who was playing football all by himself. Just kinda tossing it up in the air and catching it.   Anybody else would have just driven past. This guy? He stops to play with the kid.   What's even more touching is that he lives with his sing

What if I told you that the United States is only about 50 miles away from Asia?

It's something I think about from time to time...about how the US is so far away from Asia. Let's face it. The Pacific Ocean is VAST! But here's something I didn't really think about until I was studying some maps.   The United States is technically only 50 miles away from Asia!     Now I know that Wikipedia isn't always the best source for information, but seriously...how inaccurate could the map be? Anyway, the article said that there'd be two bridges, each about 25 miles long and a thi

I had the weirdest series of dreams last night (#3 is probably the best)

Last night, I woke up a few times in the middle of the night for various reasons. Also, last night was a very active night for me in terms of dreaming. Note that plenty of this is blurry as it’s hard for me to remember most of this, but it’s all in there (kind of).   Dream #1: My Ex Can't Leave Me Alone The first dream involves my girlfriend and me. We’re sitting at a restaurant. I’m having steak, and she’s having a white peach drink (which is a very sweet fruity beverage with a shot of vodka

MLP Forums Fun Fact!

Maybe it's a fact I'm not sure but I kinda figured it out just through observation.   Did you know that you can go to your profile on here and see which number your account was that signed up, chronologically?   For example, the URL for my page is mlpforums.com/user/6322-space-woona/   The 6322 in the URL tells me that I was the 6,322nd member to sign up for the forums.   Obviously, the number in Feld0's URL will be 1 as he created this place. Naturally, his account would be the first.

A McDonald's in Switzerland has some pretty naughty stuff on the TV's

Source Article from The New York Post: Customers accidentally get a side of porn at McDonald’s   I heard about this on the radio show I listen to in the mornings at work. You guys know how when you go into a McDonald's they have the TVs turned to something? Around here, it's usually news. CNN, NBC, yadda yadda...Well a few days ago, a McDonald's in Switzerland had been on the sports channel when suddenly     On the TV screens it shows the pornography of women!   Now they said on the rad

Oklahoma: The Bipolar State

This picture was taken at 4:53 pm     And this one was taken at 5:22     In hardly half an hour, it went from hardly being able to see across the road to a picture perfect evening. Welcome to Oklahoma!   And it's December. While other people are getting snow, we're getting rain, hail, and tornadoes.

A 22 month old killed after being left in a hot car

I did a blog entry on this subject earlier this year.   Then yesterday, I saw an article on Facebook about a 22 month old toddler being locked in a car for 8 hours who subsequently died.   According to the father of the child, he was supposed to take his son to daycare; however, he forgot the child was in the car and went to work instead. He left work that afternoon and noticed the child was in the back of the car. He pulled over and performed CPR in an attempt to resuscitate the child, bu

We are all attention seekers

I’ve seen plenty of people call out people they call “attention whores.” Those people who post things that say “like if your shirt is yellow” or “like if you were born” or “like if you—“ some other thing that obviously a lot of people are doing, have done, have experienced, and so forth. And these people agree that they have done or experienced that thing so they drop this person a like. Then that person has thousands of people who have given their status or their comment or whatever a like. Nex

I'm so awful at making friends with people...

It seems like I've always been like this. I am one of the worst people in the world when it comes to making new friends. I'm awful at holding conversations and I'm socially awkward. These aren't things I was told by a counselor. They're just things I've noticed about myself as I've gotten older.   My whole life, I always had a small circle of friends. It's not that I don't like making new friends. And I generally don't want to exclude someone from my conversation. I just can't approach someon

Scammed. And I should have known better.

Disclaimer: This contains some language that is hidden in the fourth spoiler. Other than that, the rest of the entry is clean. Disclaimer the second: There's some light computer jargon, and if that's not your thing, your head may hurt.   This is my Samsung Galaxy S4. (ignore the Toshiba laptop it's sitting on. I needed a surface that contrasted with the color of the phone lol)         I love my phone. It’s the first phone I’ve had that my parents weren’t paying the phone bill. That’s

Hunting for sport is wasteful

Look, having grown up in the southern United States, I'm all for hunting. Especially if it's for food.   For me, hunting for food is almost always acceptable. This happens in the wild very often, and I firmly believe that if you want to shoot a deer and process the meat to feed yourself or your family, you should be able to go right ahead. Where I think it isn't okay to shoot or otherwise kill an animal for food is if the animal is endangered, regardless of whether you were aware of the animal

Just how big are kilo-, mega-, giga-, and tera-?

I was watching a video hosted by Jeremy Clarkson earlier called “Inventions That Changed the World: The Computer.” It got me thinking about just how amazing these machines have actually become. We started with machines capable of computing a couple numbers at a time to the Colossus which used a series of 1,800 valves to perform computing functions all the way up to ENIAC with 17,000 tubes to the microprocessors of today, which have moved past those archaic valves and tubes to hundreds of million

A mixed feelings blog post from someone who is unhappy at the moment

A word to you if you made the mistake of reading this blog post: don't count on other people to make you happy. The only person you need in this life is yourself. If you can't be happy by yourself, you won't ever be happy with other people. And if you already do that, good. Don't ever count on someone else to keep it that way. You'll just get burned.   I'm still recovering from my breakup a little over a week ago, and that ties into this all. In fact, it's the only reason I'm unhappy right now

Why I don't play Pokemon anymore

Alright! Rant time!   I love Pokemon. It's something that I've long been a fan of and it'll always have a place near and dear to my heart. When I was a kid, I played the games, read the comics, and watched the anime as much as I could. But at this point, I think I'm done. I think I've hit a point in my life where I'm just done with Pokemon altogether. One might argue that I've simply outgrown Pokemon. I'm not going to bother ever playing a new generation of Pokemon again. Hell, I haven't even

My thoughts on the 8th generation of consoles

Just a little disclaimer - I'm not bashing consoles. If you have a console, then that's fine. Have it. If it's your preferred choice. Really, I think what you get is a matter of preference. Contrary to popular belief in the PC gaming community, consoles do have advantages. That said, let's move on.   I’m really not too impressed with anyone’s offerings in terms of consoles. The one that comes closest to impressing me is the PS4, and I’m still sort of…eh…about it. Have I become jaded to the nex

Coffee creamer that tastes like Girl Scouts cookies?! WHAAAAT?!?!

I'm at a loss for words.     For the record, I LOVE Girl Scouts cookies. Especially thin mints. I don't buy them often. I bought some tonight and this was the first time I bought Girl Scout cookies in a couple years because when I buy Girl Scout cookies, I make them disappear. Anyway, I just saw a commercial for it on TV so it HAS to be real.   You guys, if I see this stuff at the store, I'm buying all of it. Then I will go home and drink coffee by the gallon.

What My Guitar Means to Me (And How Music Saved My Life)

Disclaimer: there's some language and dark themes in this entry. If you're easily offended by dark themes or strong language, this is your fair warning.   Let me tell you guys something: I love music. It’s something I do every day. I took music classes in high school and I played in a college band. I also played the guitar in a local band with some of my best friends. Music means a lot to me. It’s been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember.   My mother and father listene

What I want to see in Season 5

I don't normally do things like this...I was pretty hyped for Season 4, though, and I did have high hopes for it. I was not disappointed. The crew certainly has a lot to live up to. But in general, I don't spend a lot of time thinking about what I want out of something new (like an upcoming video game sequel or a new season) except exactly what it should be: something new.   Today, I was just thinking about it. And I've determined what I want out of Season 5.   Did you ever notice something

Someone I have to give a brohoof to.

Bridle Gossip, A Dog and Pony Show, The Best Night Ever, The Last Roundup, A Friend in Deed, MMMystery on the Friendship Express, Pinkie Pride, Filli Vanilli...   What do all of these episodes have in common?   They were written, either fully or in part by, Amy Keating Rogers.   And I fully enjoyed every one of these episodes. Some of them are in my BOAT (best of all time) list. In fact, the only episode she wrote that I didn't love was The Cutie Pox, and that was still actually a pretty

Dear people who comment about older rock music "THIS IS WHAT REAL MUSIC IS!"

I remember a conversation I had with my great-grandmother a few months ago...you have to keep in mind that old people aren't just made old. There was a time when even they were young and into the pop culture of their own times. My great-grandmother is going to be 91 years old in a couple of weeks. She was born in 1923. When she was my age, the biggest performers were Woody Guthrie, Gene Autry, and Hank Williams. in the 1940s, when she was in her 20s, the biggest genre in music was country. As ti

Shoplifter caught in the act

HOLY CRAP! I'm not really sure how to feel about this. On one end of the spectrum, I understand what it's like to be poor. Perhaps she has an abusive boyfriend? But on the other end of that, if you're stealing out of necessity, there are plenty of welfare options available to you. You can make a half-decent living off of welfare. There are so many variables in this. At the end of the day, I don't think people should be shoplifting. It's wrong.

I got my first plushie today! :D

She thinks she's cool... :okiedokielokie:     So yeah, you'd think that after being a brony for nearly 2 years, I'd have more plushies, buuuuuut I don't. So when I saw Fluttershy (among others) at the store today, I couldn't resist it!   Granted she isn't of superb quality, but do keep in mind that I'm jobless and money is tight at the moment. When I do get a job, first thing I'm getting is a quality hand made Luna or Fluttershy. Either way, she'll have to suffice for now. I'm just happy
