    Nerf Wars

    By lomk,

    >Nerf wars
     
    This got me to thinking...what if we took all the real guns in the world and replaced them with nerf guns?
     
    Like, war wouldn't be a bad thing. War would, quite possibly, be the most awesome thing ever. You couldn't hate going to war.
     
    This is the world I want to live in.

    I have four siblings, three of which don't live in the same town as me. We'll call them John, Jane, and Jacob for the purpose of anonymity. John is 14, Jane is 12, and Jacob is 9.
     
    A few weeks ago, I had John over at my apartment and we hung out and I took him home that Sunday.
     
    This weekend, my next brother down (he's 20) and I had Jane and Jacob over for the weekend. Jane and Jacob are at my place and Jane goes through my games to find something to play on the Wii. She grabs the case for Paper Mario TTYD and says, "Hey! John has this game!"
     
    "Really?" I asked, "I didn't know he had one too. I went to play this game a couple weeks ago and it wasn't in the case so I thought that maybe I just lost it."
    "Oh, well John said you gave him that game. It's in a bag at the house."
    "Oh? Do go on. Because I don't remember ever giving him that game. I don't give a game away and keep the case. That'd be stupid because the game's going to get all scratched up."
    Jane just looks at me, kind of shocked because she now knows that John stole that game from me and she couldn't believe he would do that. So to lighten up the air, I said, "Busted!" and that got her to laugh a little.
     
    So this is what pisses me off. It's not about the game. It's that I invite him into my home. I serve him my food. I take time off from whatever it is I enjoy doing on the weekend just to spend time with him. And he wants to steal from me? I've been there and done that. And I ought to break his fingers for it too as I deserved to have mine broken when I was a teenager.
     
    Yes, I used to be a thief too. I have since reconciled with the people I stole from and I've changed.
     
    So when I make that 90 minute drive back to take Jane and Jacob home today, I think I'm going to have a little chit chat with John. Because that's bullshit. I also gave him my old PlayStation 2 when he was here and he wants to steal my things? After I gave him things?
     
    Man, does it hurt a hundred times more when it's your brother - your own flesh and blood - who puts the knife in your back.

    All in all I can say this year has been a good one for me as far as March Madness is concerned. And while my favorite pony lost earlier than I would have liked, I still love Luna most. I'm also not mad about her losing to Fluttershy because I love Fluttershy only marginally less. Like, it's the same difference between sugar cookies and chocolate chip. I pretty much love them the same.
     
    Now we're at the Final Four and the championship is right around the corner. The fans have spoken and I'm quite pleased with how it looks.
     
    First, I want to talk about Pinkie Pie. I want to say that you Pinkie fans have to be pretty dedicated to your character. She's had a pretty rocky season so far, from making Fluttershy cry to just being called the "village idiot." You guys and gals have held dearly to your favorite pony this season. I have to say that I'm surprised to see her in the Final Four. Pinkie Pie has had a much more threatening bracket journey up. She could easily have lost to Sweetie Belle and Derpy, but she didn't and I'm happy to see her here.
     
    Next there's Applejack. Up until Rainbow Dash, I think it's safe to say she's had it easy. So I'm not quite as surprised to see her here. I think episodes like Rainbow Falls really hurt Rainbow Dash's chances to get into the Final Four. It's only my opinion, but I didn't think the Applejack episodes this season were 100% amazing. But like the others she's had to claw her way up here and it's nice to see the one pony who gets picked on for being a "background pony" (when she obviously isn't) make it this far. Good job, AJ.
     
    Fluttershy is one of my favorite ponies. In fact, she's my #2 favorite (next to Luna...duh). I love Fluttershy. She's sweet and caring, but extremely reserved. If she's in a room with others, she's definitely not one to initiate conversation. She's fragile, but she'd go out of her way to help a friend in need because putting yourself second is what kindness is about. However, she's just so timid that she has difficulty standing up for herself. In short, Fluttershy reminds me of myself in a lot of ways, making her super easy for me to relate to.
     
    And Rarity. Let me say that before this season, I didn't really like Rarity too much. She seemed kinda snobby. Like, I had a problem with some of her earlier episodes, but I won't get into that. All I have to say about Rarity is that she quickly went from the bottom of my list to having a spot in my Top 5. And I owe it partly to a great season and also to @ghostfacekiller39, who has shown me that she really is an awesome character after all. Thank you, ghostie, for showing me the error of my ways
     
    So as for my favorites to win the Final Four, this was easy for me
     

     
    From my post earlier
     
    And who do I want to win?
     
    You expect me to say, Fluttershy, right? Because if you do, then I hate to disappoint.
     
     
     
     
    After having such an awesome season, she definitely deserves to win it all.

    Now a little back story: I'm a senior in college. My roommate has enough hours to be a senior but he's still probably 2 more years from actually finishing and getting a degree. But we're roughly the same age and we've been pretty close friends since 8th grade. We found we liked Pokemon (a lot) in high school and gaming is kind of our thing. But we're also pretty imaginative sometimes and we start making up some crazy stuff.
     
    Anyway, this is a running gag between us for the last five or six years or so. It started when we were diagnosing cereal mascots with psychotic disorders.
    Trix Rabbit: Lots of pent up anger because he sees no reason that Trix can only be for kids
    Lucky the Leprechaun (Lucky Charms): Severe paranoia that "they're always after" his "Lucky Charms"
    Sonny the Cuckoo Bird (Cocoa Puffs): Severe ADHD + Panic discorder. That bowl of Cocoa Puffs is always the straw that breaks the camel's back for this guy.
     
    That's just a few. This eventually evolved into creating our own superhero. He was years in the making. He lives in a little of all of us who patrol the internet. He is the Nazi of Nazis. Some accept and love him. Others reject and hate him. He is....
     
    He is...Grammarman.
     
    It started with a conversation about people who are too lazy to be grammatically correct. We agreed that people spend 12 years in school being taught the only language they know. We're taught how to read, write, and use English for two-thirds of our childhoods. Therefore there's no reason to suck at it. If you were taught how to play piano for 12 years from the time you are 5 years old, would you absolutely suck at it or would you demonstrate some considerable skill? The same goes for language.
     
    We also agreed that if you're multilingual, you get cut a lot more slack on this. I can see how it would be easy to confuse the spellings of various words when you can be thinking in two or more languages at any given moment. Alright, now that I have that mini-rant out of the way, let's move on.
    .
    The story starts with a woman. One of those over the top feminist women who think guys are jerk bags when they hold the door because that makes them look weak. The Grammarphone (yes that's a pun on a gramophone--as in a vinyl record) goes off. It's a message from the store owner
     
    Owner: Grammarman! We need your help!
    Grammarman: I am on my way!
     
    [Grammarman strides politely into the McDonalds to find our scene]
     
    Grammarman: What is the problem here?
    Cashier: We gave her pickles on her cheeseburger.
    Woman: And I didn't want no pickles on my burger!
    Grammarman: [to woman] Did you want pickles on your burger?
    Woman: No! I didn't want no pickles on my burger
    Grammarman: Those sentences contradict each other.
    Woman: I didn't want no pickles and I got pickles!
    Grammarman: Exactly.
    Woman: And I told him I didn't want no pickles!
    Grammarman: Then, ma'am, I fail to see the problem. If you "didn't want no pickles" and you got pickles, then you did, in fact, order pickles. You got exactly what you ordered. NOW SHUT UP AND GO EAT THE FOOD YOU ORDERED!
     
    And so, thanks to our beloved Grammarman, a problem that never existed in the first place was resolved because someone was too stupid or lazy to properly use the only language he or she knows. What future struggles await our hero? Find out in the next issue of Grammarman!
     
    We had too much time on our hands in high school
     
    Grammarman hasn't popped up in conversation in a while, but his legacy lives on. Grammarman is the SSID for our internet router. We've also called it The Awesome Narwhal and NSA Monitoring Station before (thanks to Evilshy for that last one), but Grammarman is its current alias.

    I should have sorted this stuff sooner. Really. Now I have a 4 inch stack of papers that I'm going to have to sort through. I'm going to say about 75 - 90% of it is trash. But I don't know where the important documents are in this monster stack.
     

     
    This is why we throw things away when they become unimportant instead of letting them pile up over 2½ years...
     
    Note: the markings on the cardboard are accurate. I would have used my ruler but it's made of stainless steel and it's very reflective. Doesn't take pictures very well.

    Everyone else is doing one so what the heck? Why not?
     
    1: Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed?
    I sleep with the closet door the way I left the closet door. Why do people make a big deal of this anyway?
     
    2: Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotel?
    I don’t even use the stuff, let alone take it.
     
    3: Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?
    Out. I hate the feeling that tucked sheets make me feel gravitated to my bed.
     
    4: Have you ever stolen a street sign before?
    Funnily enough, yes! When I was 14, someone in my town knocked down a yield sign. It had been down for a few weeks so my friend and me went out with a ratchet and took off with it!
     
    5: Do you like to use post-it notes?
    They’re quite handy!
     
    6: Do you cut out coupons but then never use them?
    I used to cut out coupons until I realized I do exactly this. So I quit cutting them out.
     
    7: Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of a bees?
    How about a swarm of puppies? That sounds a lot less painful.

    Screw pictures. I hate my own picture. :okiedokielokie:

    When my roommate forgets to turn off a light when he’s not in a room. If you’re not in the room, why pay for the extra electricity it takes to light the dadgum thing?!
     
    11: Do you ever count your steps when you walk?
    I’m too ADD to NOT count my steps!
     
    12: Have you ever peed in the woods?

    13: What about pooped in the woods?
    I can’t say as much for this…

    20: Do you still watch cartoons?
    I’m a brony so this should be fairly obvious :comeatus:
     
    21: Whats your least favorite movie?
    Almost any horror movie. Those movies make me want to throw up before I ever get scared.
     
    22: Where would you bury hidden treasure if you had some?
    I wouldn’t bury it! I’d cash out and invest that money in stocks and retirement!
     
    23: What do you drink with dinner?
    Usually water. But I like a little Crown Royal and Coke
     
    24: What do you dip a chicken nugget in?

    28: Were you ever a boy/girl scout?
    Nope. I love the outdoors but it was never for me.
     
    29: Would you ever strip or pose nude in a magazine?
    If people really wanted to see that…I mean, if you want to see me nude, I can’t be held responsible for your loss of vision or the desire to gouge out your eyes
     
    30: When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper?
    I have a German friend and she’s my pen pal. I wrote her a letter last month.

    Nope. Never much cared for magazines.
     
    42: Which are better legos or lincoln logs?
    For building stuff or for plotting evil things for anyone who walks barefoot in your room? Because Legos fit the bill perfectly for both!
     
    43: Are you stubborn?
    No! -_-
    .

    Odd question, but yes I can.

    94: Who was your HS crush?

    So I just had the most awesome awkward moment ever.
     
    I'm sitting on my couch, funning around on MLP Forums (of course...because where else would I waste hours upon hours of my life?), when all of a sudden, I hear this noise. Imagine an injured child crying his lungs out. That's about what it sounded like to me at first.
     
    So, puzzled and kind of worried, I opened my door and stepped outside to figure out what the hell was going on. Turns out it was a cat
     
    But I kid you not, the instant I opened my door, three other doors open up simultaneously. Turns out all of my neighbors had the same idea to figure out what that noise was
     
    So what do we do? After we see the cat, we just start chatting. It's below freezing. We're in pajamas/shorts (because it's 8:05 PM). And the wind is blowing like a bat out of hell like it always is here. The four of us just stand there and have this weird conversation about cats, puppies, web servers, and the weather for a few minutes. Then awkward silence. About 15 seconds of it. Then one of them says, "Well I'm going back inside."
     
    "Yep."
    "I'm outta here."
    "Peace."
     
    Ten minutes later, I'm still trying to process this

    I enjoy a little coffee in the morning. It helps me to get out of that rising zombie state into a fully aware zombie ready for a full day of apocalypse normally functioning person ready to tackle the day. I don't drink much coffee, though. Generally, a shower also does a pretty good job of getting me up, but it doesn't have the lasting power of coffee for me. But if I'm not feeling up to speed after my morning shower, a hot cup of black coffee will do the trick. But only one cup of coffee because any more will make me sweatier and shakier than a prostitute in church (yeah I know that's pretty tasteless...go ahead, throw rocks at me)
     
    Well a few years ago, my family went to Las Vegas for a Christmas vacation. We were going through a bunch of malls because I was 17 and my brother was 15 so we couldn't gamble [On a side note, there were plenty of times where our parents went to play a few hands of Blackjack while we just roamed the Vegas Strip and checked out malls by ourselves]. Gambling age is 21 in Vegas. Well, one day when we were there, we were at one of the restaurants in one of the malls. I can't remember its name but they had some pretty good hamburgers. They also had a machine there that was dispensing hot caffeinated beverages free of charge. I decided I could use a cup of coffee...
     
    So I get over there and grab a medium size cup. I think it was about 12 oz / 350 mL. I put it under the spout and hit the button. It dispensed a tiny bit of coffee. I couldn't run on that! So I assumed the coffee machine was malfunctioning and hit the button like 10 more times. At least until the cup was full. I got back to the table and started enjoying my cup of hot coffee. My dad also loves coffee and he thought it smelled pretty good so he went and got some too. By the time he got back, I was done with mine. I asked him if it was giving him trouble too. He said, "Nope." So I told him, "That's funny because the coffee machine was hardly giving me any coffee so I hit the button like 8 or 10 more times. I thought it was broken." My dad looks at my empty cup. Then he looks back at me.
     
    "8 or 10 times? That wasn't coffee...That was espresso."
     
    All three - my mom, dad and brother dropped whatever they were doing. They slowly cocked their heads at me and looked at me for a few seconds with this panicked look in their eyes, as if they all wanted to scream at the same time, "Oh shit!!!"

    So yeah, this is what happens when you let me grubby little hands get a hold of broken things. I try to fix them and only end up breaking them even more!
     

     
    This is my brother's old iPod Classic. The 80 GB model. 6th generation. He just gave it to me for nothing since he got an iPhone and therefore had no need for an iPod. He doesn't work on computers like I do (I've taken apart both my laptops and completely disassembled one of them and built my own desktop on top of working on a multitude of other electronics) so he had no desire to fix it. I myself don't need an iPod. I have my Samsung GS4 with a 64 GB SD card, but since it was broken and he was probably going to throw it in the trash anyway, I figured why not ask him if I could see if I could fix it. Who knows?
     
    Now when he showed me that it was broken, he was pretty upset about it. He handed it to me because he knew I'd figure out what was wrong with it. It just turned on and showed a red X with a link at the bottom to Apple's support page. So I turned it off and shook it. It made a clicking noise. Immediately, I knew it was the actuator arm in the hard drive flinging around in there and his hard drive was busted. That's the biggest downside to the Classics. You can't really be very active with them since they don't use flash memory like other models. You'd think that by this time with SD cards that can hold up to 2 TB, we'd have a flash memory based iPod Classic, but I guess they use hard drives to keep costs down.
     
    So when he gave it to me, I got to reading tons and tons of guides on how to pull an iPod apart. Apple designs these things so that no part is user replaceable. Understandable, but not cool for the end user when something needs to be replaced. Maybe they do it like that so people don't try to fix the things themselves and try to get refunds for things they broke themselves. That's one possibility. I tend to lean toward the idea that they make these things so hard to open so you just throw out the old one and go buy a new one. So after figuring out where the clips are, I grabbed a putty knife and a precision screwdriver and proceeded to attempt to release the clips.
     
    Well, now, not only is the hard drive still broken, but the screen is cracked and the back casing is bent to hell. Oops?
     
    Oh well, breaking things is all a part of the learning process! It made my project a little more expensive, but I guess you can't win them all lol
     
    This is what I want to eventually do:
     
    1. Now that the back case is bent out of shape, I want to buy a new one. At least the new one isn't going to have 4 years of scratches. ($10)
    2. Since I'm replacing the back case, why not go ahead and replace the front faceplate as well? ($10)
    3. Can't have an iPod without a screen. Unless it's a Shuffle. Found one for about $15
    4. This is the big one-swap the hard drive for flash memory. ($35)
     
    On #4, I found a guy who makes CF adapters for the ZIF drives that these things use. On top of that, he makes an adapter that you plug into CF that will let you use an SD card. I have a spare 32 GB SD card doing nothing since I upgraded the one in my Android to 64 GB. I don't plan on putting videos on the iPod since the screen resolution is awful on the things (though they weren't bad by the standards in 2009) so 32 gigs should be enough for my library, even if I'm using a lot of lossless audio. I dont' mind not having 80 gigs because an SD card won't have the latency of the hard drive and it's shockproof. Among other things. It'd be cheaper to buy a hard drive, but flash has so many advantages over the hard drive that I think it'd be better. My only question is that I don't know if an iPod can use an SD card that way. A new hard drive would be a guarantee that it'll work. But I'm not sure if an SD card would at this point.
     
    Last note: It may be a while until this thing is actually up and running again. I have an oil leak on my car that I need to have fixed. It's pretty bad. And who knows what it'll cost to have it fixed too? And I need my car. So that comes first. Meh...
