What Have You Done?

[Sacman]

Finished watching Serial Experiment's Lain after working like a dog for 8 hours, now my brain needs time to stop fizzling.

Did you like it? or understand it?

It's my favorite show of all time you see...<.<

I liked it after I finished watching it, I disliked watching it but I appreciated the artistic value after watching it, if that makes sense. Based off what I've seen there are many ways people could 'get it'. Seeing as the creators themselves admit to it not having a central idea, I suppose I 'got it' but I didn't get 'it' because 'it' is unique to each person. So yeah, I liked it and understood 'it' in my own way.

PS I will never listen to a dead phone or humming wires the same way again

I got ya... sadly most people just label it as nonsensical bullshit and leave at that... the first time I watched it, it completely blew my mind even if I didn't completely understand it the art, the imagery, the setting, the story, the themes, and the intrigue were more than enough to make me go out and buy it... than I watched it a few more times and the plot just kept opening up more and more and even still I have to watch it in one sitting or else I can't concentrate on anything else... I'm planning on ordering the Blu Ray when I get the money... all $300...<.<

It does appeal to a very specific group. Besides, it is kinda meaningless to say you didn't understand it, as mentioned the creators do not know what it is about. So there is no measure as to whether you understood it, what you got from it when you watched is it. In a sense, you've always understood it, your just coming to terms with that as you repeat watches. I got a friend in Japan who has the Blu Ray copy, he showed it to me and I can tell you that it is not worth it if you've already got it on DVD. Very minor differences, especially if you plan on dropping $300 US(?)

I blew up mount-in-way-of-my-iron (The mountain pissed me off) in minecraft... it took 293 blocks of TNT.. But it was worth it for the awesome bang.. And now I got over 200 iron! I am going to fortify my cave. <3

 

[God's Clown]

I took over the world, twice. I ate some food. I considered playing MGS4. I played a little Legends of Dragoon. I got upset at Star Ocean: The Second Story. I took over Japan.

Completely rearranged my room to maximise space!

Woke up.
Got McDonalds.
Bought books.

Spoiler: Not for the squimish

Touched Self.

Going to sleep soon.

Haha, I'm ashamed I had to check the spoiler.

OT: Woke up, went for a skate, began coursework on the theory of author-centered reader approaches and watched Anchorman again.
Also,

Spoiler

Learned, in a comical manner, that AccursedTheory touched himself

 

[Floppertje]

let's see...
woke up at around 10 AM,
played some minecraft
had a shower,
got dressed,
went to uni,
was MAJORLY disappointed by the fact that our workgroup for political geography has the teacher who is both more boring and less capable of speaking proper english than the other one is.
fell hard for an insanely hot english exchange student who can melt my knees simply by talking,
went home again,
played LBP2,
had pizza,
Played WoW/Minecraft/BlOps
watched harry potter 3 (mostly)
and then 0:00 rolled around, so everything I did after that falls under today and therefore it has no place in this thread

Ha! And my February 19th starts of with me laughing.

Thanks!.

 

[SovietSecrets]

I managed to ruin a perfectly good friendship with my terrible attitude. Not bad for a days work.

 

[PatrickXD]

Today, February 19th.
I have woken up, had a shower, eaten a bacon roll for breakfast, am preparing lunch and have logged into the Escapist.

 

[BringBackBuck]

Afternoon delight with the missus.

Not much of a feat you say? We have 2 babies aged 4months and 15months. Anyone with small children will understand what a rare and logistically challenging undertaking this was.

But of course! Mine is ending with me laughing, so its only fair this way.

 

[Kajt]

I drew a picture of a dinosaur wearing a top hap, monocle and fake moustache saying "Tea time, chaps". Then I drew it a friend, a xenomorph from the Alien movies wearing a top hat and a monocle, saying "Capital idea, I say".

[sub]What? I was bored.[/sub]

 

[JRCB]

Went to my school in order to discuss with the vice principal why I had a knife with me.

Oohh I know the answer to this!! It was to deter the guys with brass knuckles!

Yeah...

Well I did nothing of interest, decided I was sick and tired of all of my friends sucking ass in CoD zombies so started writing up a set of guidelines for them. Not even halfway through and it's totaling over 1,800 words.
[sub][sub]If I could do that as easily as I did, why the hell do I find English so god damn hard?[/sub][/sub]

Actually, it was to deter the guy with the screwdriver threatening to kill me.

 

[FamoFunk]

Watched tv and texted 2 girls at the same time

Get you.

I just did lots of exercise on the 18th, today: 19th I played lots of CoD and internet stuff. Sod all, really.

 

[Au Naturel.]

...Today? Nothing. Last week I witnessed a car crash, and used my friends cell phone to call 911 for the injured lady.

 

[Wintermoot]

woke up
greeted dog
had breakfast
watc hed some TV
and went to the computer

 

[Outright Villainy]

Got up, which I consider an accomplishment, given my huge hangover. Now it's time to play Arkham Asylum, which I got for my birthday from my friends.

 

[eggy32]

i showered. I ate biscuits. I contemplatde playing Baldur's Gate but didn't go through with it. I joined a game of sabotage on black ops half way through and still topped the leaderboard despite being slightly sick. That's about it.
