*beats writing part of the lessons with the stupid How to Read a Book* Afternoon. o_o

Afternoon! Or, er, evening.
Not liking that book so much, I take it? o_o

No, no not in the least. o_o They're trying their damnedest to look highly intelligent, and in the process are completely loosing their readers and making absolutely no sense. In my opinion, at least. This book should NOT be being used for these damn lessons.

Writers who write like that. Drive. Me. Insane.
Man, I'm sorry that book sucks so much. D: Especially since it's for a lesson and you can't just turn up your nose and toss it aside.

If I didn't need the credits to get into that art college so bad, I'd just turn my nose up at the thing. o_o I'm suppose to be writing why reading is an art (My opinion; IT AIN'T. Writing, yes. Reading, no.) and supposedly HtRaB says, but... I've looked over the only part in chapter one that could possibly say many, many times with no success. :gonk:

I've always looked at reading as appriciating other people's art, not as one's own art... o_o That makes like... no sense. You aren't creating or anything when you read.
That really sucks. :gonk: That's like nine levels of ridiculous.

Exactly. An art would be creating something, like music or a painting or putting on a play (because I consider acting to be an art) not... not reading something. If reading something qualifies as an art, I dare say we're both fine artists. o_o This is just... gods I have no idea. I have no way to describe how ridiculous and confusing this book is.

Oooooh, Amazon you slimy, tricky little thing. o_o *staaaaaares at MP3 downloads*

I agree with acting being an art, completely. It very much is. c:
Oh my god, if reading makes us artists, we are both world famous by now. End of discussion. ...Analyzing paintings is art also? :B

Yus yus, it is indeed. c:
I can has be wurld famouse nao plz? :drool: Pfft, I hope not. :B

Yus yu kan! :drool: Because really, it's the same concept. XD I mean, I am REALLY lenient about what art is and is not but reading just... I don't see it. At all.

There is just no way I can ever see reading as an art. o_o Ever.

I'm with you. o_o

...What would Mehen do if someone threatened Aqua? o: Like serious threat by someone who was caopable of carrying said threat out? *random question*

Oooo, good one. o: Not like the person very much and keep an incredibly close eye on them AND Aqua, and if they made any move towards carrying out the threat, they'd find a pretty fire on their nose. c:

... DAMMIT. o_o Okay, I'll be lucky if I push 3rd place on that AMV contest. Just ran across another amazing entry for it. But I can't share, because it also has lots of spoilers.

A fire on their nose? Heavens I love Mehen more each day. :'D

Well I am still rooting for you. :< How long until the contest ends?

Well, yeah. :'D It's not big enough to cause any real harm- except maybe to the eyes/nose- but definitely gets the point across and distracts. c:

It's ended. D: The judging is in process now, winners are TBD.

... Of course, I certainly have a better shot then some of the entries. o_o Good gods, to people just randomly stick clips higgly-piggly with no regards to flow and matching with the song/lyrics and having the thing make sense? At this this last one I watched didn't try to have sound left in clips... right over the top of lyrics, nice and loud. x_X

Mehen needs to win some awards. Like now.

Yeah, those videos tend to be boring. I imagine they don't take long, either.
I wish you luck! c:

Yes he does. c:

This one, however, was very well done and is... pretty much totally spoiler free. c: Except for the very end. But that was a spoiler for me too, so.
Aww, thank you! <3

Oh, it was pretty well-done! And that spoiler kind of makes me wanna play the game sooner, so. ;D
<3

;D Yay, it was the good kind of spoiler! <3

It was a spoiler for Jak X, which... could be it's own stand-alone game, more or less. o_o Racing with explosions and guns and so many different kinds of awesome. :drool:

Sounds exciting. :drool: I might have to play it. ...If I ever locate the FIRST Jak game, which I have put somewhere I cannot find. o_o; At least it was only five bucks.

Och, that's never fun. o_o; *hugs*

Okay, so. So far the only solution to fixing the audio jumping on mp3s in WMM I've found is the change the extension from a .mp3 to a .wav which will supposedly fix it.... except it doesn't. o_o; So far it's fixed it for everyone but me. I change it to a .wav, POOF bye-bye sound!

*headdesk* Why must WMM have the intelligence of a retarded year-old rock? D|

Me and video games. We ain't friends.

*huggles* D: I wish I was less technologically challenged so I could help you out with it! I feel so useless. ._.

Tsh, technology challenged nuthin'! o_o WMM and WLMM are pretty much dominating the industry for windows movie programs (as much as I hate Microsoft, I'm fairly certain that they're safe to download programs from), and they just don't care enough to make sure they're stuff actually works. A search for 'free windows movie making programs' yields tens upon tens of pages of... Windows Movie Maker and Windows Live Movie Maker.

Aye, you have good points.
But I guess it's WMM or six hundred bucks for a decent program, SO. ...Even though I still want to smash WMM against a wall. Repeatedly.

Oooo, I found Okap's theme song for Viv before the time before when he shut himself off from her and everyone else. <3
It's my favorite U2 song. Mostly I decided to finally share because my mom is in Chicago to go to a U2 concert. WITHOUT ME. So I've got them on the brain.

I'm trying to download the Vegas Pro 9 free trial. :B I have it downloaded, but the darned pixels' won't install.

Ooo, I wanna listen! *pops off to listen to it*
