Why oh why did I read KAN's blog. Also, I will never take KAN out to eat.

And that was just spaghetti. You don't want to know what I think about oatmeal.

Magi, remember the first rule of LA sanity: Don't look at any link provided by KAN. Even if morbid curiosity is begging you to look, just say no.

Can any of us post a blog there? And does it have to be our own blog, or something a bit different?

Okay, okay, I was thinking that a blog by Susie, my sweet little bacterium alter-ego, would be hilarious, though it wouldn't technically be a blog so much as an ongoing comic writing in my style (absurdist with a straight face - I'm not good with gags and jokes but I can be silly). Is that okay?

I don't see why it wouldn't. I mean hell, go for it. We've got the space and bandwidth to burn so do it if thats what you want.

Alright, so just register and log on, and there I go? Anything special I need to do? If there's any selling of one's soul involved, whoever's in charge will have to fight over it with the people who have bits and pieces of it now.

Hint: one piece is in a round glass globe in the basement of a tavern in Little Five Points, an eclectic area of Atlanta. That's the piece that Georgia Tech stole. I don't know where the others are but the search to collect all the pieces could constitute the plot of a hilarious RPG.

Don't mind the part of selling one's soul. All part and parcel of a standard contract as Petro will tell you. Besides, this is Librium... do you think we'd have it any other way?

Or you could be like me. I didn't have to sell my soul, I just had to promise not to kill the admins in their sleep. :grin:

*puts away pillow, piano wire, lockpicks, silencer, and poison-filled syringes*

Exactly! Nothing to worry about here.

Now to try this blog thingy.

EDIT: seems I need admin permission to start a blog. A little help, please?

Okay, why in Valen's name would one need to silence piano wire, a pillow, or poison-filled syringes? It's not like
a) they're all that noisy to begin with and
b) a silencer would work on them to begin with. :???:

Pfftt. Killing. Why resorting to such violent solution when there's a peaceful, more effective method? Ever heard about non-violent resistance? You know, things like hunger strike and such?

But in case you wonder: no. I'm not suggesting anyone to commit hunger strike in order to be allowed to post their blog on LA. Why? Because I have something better: masturbation strike.

The initial phase of the plan is visiting the hometown of each LA admins. Then I'll come to the admin's house and knock the door politely, asking whether I'll be allowed to post my blog on LA. The answer, of course, will be 'fuck no', followed with the door being slammed, because no sane admin will ever alow KAN to post his blog on the forum.

I, however, already anticipated such thing, which will bring the next phase of my plan. Upon such heartless rejection, I will stand in the middle of the house's front lawn, unzip my wang, and perform a public masturbation as a sign of protest.

While masturbating furiously (note that 'furiously' is the operative word here, for anything less is deemed ineffective), I will make a long, eloquent speech about how my blogging right is being surpressed, and how such oppression has strangely appealed me to masturbate. Furiously. As the admin's neighbors start gathering around the scene, I'll also use the opportunity to deliver my self-written poem titled Ode To My Pubic Hair Which Just Can't Stop Growing Despite My Endless and Furious Plucking. All while still masturbating, of course, because just like hunger strike, the purpose of masturbation strike is to achieve certain political goals (in this case, the goal is having one's blog posted in LA). So the masturbation will keep on going until the political goals are achieved.

I should also make a note that the advantage of protesting by public masturbation is that you still have a free hand to hold the poster. Otherwise, I can also improvise by making a metal sign with your free hand and banging my head while synchronizing the metal headbang with the whacking movement.

But of course, just like hunger strike, masturbation strike also has its own limits. While the riot police, the SWAT team, and the paramedics from the local mental hospital won't stop me, the ultimate and inevitable urge to ejaculate will. So please bear in mind that public masturbation --while very effective in gaining public sympathy-- still has its own limits. In hunger strike, the protester will eventually have to take liquids to sustain her/his life. In masturbation strike, it works exactly the opposite: the protester willl eventually need to ommit some liquids.

Happy protesting!

Bats there is a fucking art to killing people in their sleep okay? I don't expect you to understand it, as it is a very misunderstood and underappreactied artform. But never the less, it has a long rich history having been practiced by all manner of enthic and social groups throughout history. As Maya has shown even a lack of brute phyiscal strength is no barrier to the practice of the art!

Betcha you understand why the admins were so happy about that promise now don't ya?

Well, I just decided to join the blogosphere here as well, and have so far ranted on the poor design of the blog software's user interface and explained today's quest to play Warcraft II on WinXP over a LAN.

My blog domain

I intend to continue blabbing about software stuff mainly, and a wee bit about my original sci fi universe and maybe some random stuff on my mind. I don't expect to post terribly often (especially now as I am busier than I look), but it is there for anyone who cares to read it.

If you have comments, of course feel free, and you can always create a thread back here to have a discussion about anything written, too.
