Hehe ya, I see that the crowns aren't that popular, but they will be some day... I hope. Hehe. Ya, I think I'll have to get going sometime soon as well, I'll talk to you later.

Djoy 03-25-2007 11:05 PM

Holy Mackerole! Nancy marries the DEA dude so he can't testify against her? Was that completely necessary?

Sometimes, I think Nancy is COMPLETELY INSANE. Jeez, just move into a smaller house and wash your own dishes, you know what I'm sayin?


AND her kid gets the deaf girl pregnant on purpose? What is this world coming to...

Sizzla 03-26-2007 03:09 PM

hahahaa! Did you finally get season 2?

Yeah, Nancy is hella crazy. It's like, WOMAN, ARE YOU THINKING?! :X


Season 2 is just insanity all around, I must say...damn, you still have so much more to watch!

Djoy 03-26-2007 03:40 PM

I know! I got till episode 7, and apparently there's 12 in the season. Weeds is rather addictive. But I stopped because they're slow downloading becuase I have to do it in 10 minute intervals, 3 DL per episode and my internet connection is slowy mcslowerson!

100 mbps. I know, you are probably the fast internet queen and would perish with a connection like that!

I'm surprised I can talk on Skype without having it cut out all the time.

Eroy 03-26-2007 03:58 PM

OMG season 2 is sooo stressful. It hurts me to think about it D:

Sizzla 03-26-2007 03:58 PM

Oh yes, there are 12 wonderfully addictive episodes this season. heh. By the time you're done downloading and watching them, it'll be time for Season 3! XD

Wow, that does take a long time to DL! I would probably be quite annoyed...hehee. Though movies take me a long time to get...Weeds on the other hand, can download in 20-30 mins on the day of it's torrent release.

Are you DLing them using bittorrent? Or how? You could probably watch them on YouTube if you didn't want to DL them completely. I like having the actual episodes though...

Yeah, we should skype sometime--once I'm no longer sick and can hardly speak. :D It's been awhile.

Djoy 03-26-2007 04:05 PM

Nice pirate patch there. Do you get your gold through selling crowns?? I've been YouTubing them becuase I haven't wanted to bother downloading Bitorrent, even though I know it's probably a worthy investment. I don't have a decent anti-virus and AVG annoys me for some reason. So ever since napster days when I downloaded a virus and f-ed up my computer in college, I decided that downloading stuff isn't for me.

Not that I'm anti downloading stuff... lord knows I haven't paid for music since I was 18!!! Sad. I'm not particularly proud of that one. I blame it on living in third world countries. ha!

Eroy 03-26-2007 04:21 PM

I don't download either. I have Matt do it for me.. I'm so worthless with that kind of stuff. Haha!

Damn Siz.. you're sick again!?! WTF is the matter with you? It seems like you're sick all the time theses days.

EDIT: Back to work. I doubt I'll be on much today. Busy busy... :cry:

Sizzla 03-26-2007 04:22 PM

Thanks! I like the patch. It's cheap. :D

Well, at first I got my money through selling crowns, but I soon realized that they aren't worth that much. So now, I just use them to bribe artists to draw for me.

Mostly, I make my money by posting. Posting like crazy. Erin and I chat in here most days and our posts tend to be pretty long, so it works out well. I do like 20g posts, oh yes!

Well, I can't say much about viruses and BitTorrent...I personally don't have any issues with viruses, but then again, I have a mac...so that's just not something I worry about. I've never had any problems with BitTorrent. I think it'd probably work well on your computer if you're brave enough to try it out.

heh. I haven't paid for music or movies for so long...and I don't feel bad about it. XP

I know dude! I'm fucking sick of it!!

I'll probably have to have my tonsils out..T_T Too bad I don't have the money for surgery. T_T

FinalBlackMage 03-26-2007 04:38 PM

I feel out of the loop. XP The only tv shows I watch are Lost, Daily Show, Colbert Report, and the sunday night cartoons (Simpsons, King of the Hill ect.)

Oh man Lost... that show gets more messed up as time goes by. :S

Djoy 03-26-2007 04:52 PM

I've actually never seen Lost. When I left Chile it was just starting to become the rage becuase one of the national TV stations bought the first season. Then it was all scandelous becuase a different station bought the second season and started playing them. Then all hell broke loose and they started selling ripped DVDs on the street of successive episodes, so people could see them before they came out of TV.

Wacky! Here in Brazil they donīt seem to watch so many American shows... they've got their own sappy soap operas. We have cable though so I at least get to see some Scrubs and worthy shows like that. Pimp my Ride. woo!

FinalBlackMage 03-26-2007 04:59 PM

I suggest waiting three years for Lost to be completed before trying to watch it. I watched the first season in 24hours (it was a marathon right before the second season started, and I had nothing better to do that evening/next day) XP

But now, waiting a week... and everything it's just... it gets really really crazy. The show is absolutely insane, but I can't stop watching it, but I hate waiting for it. They have announced though that it'll only be 5 or 6 seasons, since it's one of those shows that actually can't continue, if it doesn't end soon people will get bored... which is already happening...

Oh ya, my other guilty pleasure, Passions. It's the most ridiculous Soap Opera on the planet (involves magic... magic+soap opera scenerios = insane hillarity) XP

FinalBlackMage 03-26-2007 05:07 PM

Okay, completely off topic and all but... I just reach my first Menewsha 100 gold. XD

I am proud.

Okay, back to hot tv shows. XP

I also wanted to say the reason why I always feel so out of the loop is because other than Lost everyone else seems to know so much about all this TV... TV has become crazy. I've seen one or two episodes of House, but I don't like his crazy fans who think this actor came out of nowhere.

I love Blackadder, which is either where he started or at least one of his big things at the beginning of his career, and resulted in him becoming part of the comedy group of Stephen Fry, Tony Robinson, Rowan Atkinson... and a few others. Anybody remember Askjeeves.com? Now it's only Ask.com, but Jeeves was from a show that Stephen Fry and Huge Laurie starred in.

Anyways, I'm going on and on... I guess it's just been a while since I've had civilized conversation (so used to Gaia). I'll stop seeming like a needy chatterbox soon enough. XP

Sizzla 03-26-2007 05:12 PM

It's okay BlackMage, feel free to post as much as you want. Since you have to post a lot to earn money here, post to your heart's content. :D

Normally there are more of us to chat with, but Eroy's working, I'm sickly and working...and djoy, well, she seems to be around! XD

So yeah, have at it.

I don't watch Lost or House--though I did watch a few House eps yesterday during some marathon. It was okay I guess. I prefer to watch bad TV--like everything the WB (or CW) makes. :D

*goes back to work so she can go home and sleep*

Djoy 03-26-2007 05:14 PM

Lol yeah on Gaia it's impossible to hold a decent conversation. Menewsha's kinda nice like that.

I have NO idea what the House thing is, I'm sure in two years it'll have made its way south. The only show I've ever been truly addicted to was the Real World when I was in high school... man, I used to be such a biotch when it was on because I wouldn't let me brother change the channel or even talk to me...I HAD to know what happened... it was mainly the London cast, which now that I reflect upon it was a really uneventful cast. Now it's funny cuz the other day I saw the Australian girl Jacinda on the Bridget Jones Diary movie, which I don't have the patience to actually sit through, but to me she'll always be Real World Jacinda.

Oh and you should be proud of your first Mene 100, it takes a lot of effort to get there!

And I'll gladly take your Lost advice. Many have told me not to watch it becuase it just gets addictive, and who needs more addictions I mean really.

Djoy 03-26-2007 07:36 PM

Cree Cree... I hear crickets and see a lonely tumbleweed meandering by.

No one's here to play, and I've gotta post for more gold! If I think I'm gonna buy a fairy at A Thousand Gardens I've gotta be a lot more badass than I am now. Plus I'm fixin for some lovely clothes, which probably won't happen, but we can dream.

Eroy 03-26-2007 07:51 PM

Djoy!! Sorry for the no posting... I'm soooo busy today. It's slowing down though.

How's your gold earning going?

Djoy 03-26-2007 07:55 PM

As you can see I'm totally not having a busy day, which is ok... I'm letting myself some slack thinking that getting 85 houses donated means I can relax a bit, you know?

But I don't want to be like the tortoise and the hare, no no no. I shan't be napping on the job.

Well, my gold count in all its majesty is available for all to see below my brown naked avi. I made a mule, Spanky, lol... he's also of African American descent you see, and perhaps one day he and Djoy will marry. Who knows what can happen in mene land.

But my mule's not helping much. He's also got no gold... since the characters here start out with a big fat zeeeeeeeeeeerooooooooooooo.

Eroy 03-26-2007 08:03 PM

Ya 85 house donation would make me relax for a second too xP

I don't have a mule yet... I haven't found the need for one. LoL.. I guess I had never though of making one so I could marry it. Haha!

Are you saving your monies for the flatsale or are you going to buy some clothes. I'd like to have clothes but I think I'm going to work on buying rares first. So it might be a while.

Ugg ya nothing.. at all. But if you can come up with enough to talk about you could make 20 gold posts *nodnod*

Djoy 03-26-2007 08:10 PM

I know! My RP was a 20 gold post... it rocked my socks off. I mean, I'm not much of the blabbing type but you gotta do what you gotta do. I just want to know which items are rares. I'm kind of confused because the stores said that there was a St.Pat's store, but when you click on it it didn't work. Are the St. Pat's items still up on the different stores? Those would be the rares then right?

Yeah now is probably the time to hoard then two years later we can sit back in Mene land and be rich rich rich.

Oh shit! I forgot I put water on to boil to make tea and I totally remembered after there was like... no water left. Oh well, at least there was some left.. have you ever heated a pot for so long you start smelling a weird burnt pot smell??

That might be a gas oven thing though... I can't really see it being as bad with an electric stove, but here in Latin America everything's gas.

Eroy 03-26-2007 08:41 PM

There's a special event store.. but they take the items out when it's over. There are some St. Patrick's Day items in the other stores.. but they're not rare. They were cheaper when the event was on though.

I want to get V-day items. Especially the pin and the sash. I guess we'll see what happens with that though...

Lol.. I've done that before when I was boiling an egg. I totally burnt the egg shell it was smelly. I had a pot of water blow up on an electric stove once. It was a huge pot of water, the coil was messed up and superheated the pot melting a whole in it. Then the water blew off the lid to the water and the rest of it ran down inside the oven and stuff. It was a huge mess!

I love gas stoves... I miss mine. I hate electric. :?

Djoy 03-26-2007 08:44 PM

Crikey! Your pot story totally pwns mine that's for sure. You burned a hole in your POT? That's amazing... did you have to replace the entire stove? I mean, I just can't imagine something so hardcore.

Funny about the egg though... I guess you would burn that sucker's shell.

Eroy 03-26-2007 08:49 PM

We had to replace the burner (well the landlord did anyway), but the rest of the stove was ok once we got all of the water out of it. The pot was fucked though.. it had a quarter sized hole in the bottom if it. It was one of the most messed up things I've ever seen :shock:

Ya.. poor egg. I didn't eat it...

Djoy 03-26-2007 09:09 PM

I would hope you didn't eat it.. overboiled eggs aren't good period. Burned shell ones are probably worse.
