Hi, I'm not dead. My modem, on the other hand, has been dead since Saturday. It got blown out in a power failure (despite being plugged in to a surge protector, stupid thing) and stupid Rogers won't come deal with the problem until Tuesday. Because clearly no one's internet ever breaks on the weekend. Grah. Totally not impressed with situation. Just want internet back. Had to reinstall Seasons due to a system restore, and then I couldn't get the patch, so my stupid Sim babies won't stop screaming. Still looking for an apartment in London. Can't look for an apartment without internet. Not a happy Ewok.

My computer died while plugged into a surge protector, too, last year. I don't trust those things anymore and unplug them during storms. (it also killed our oven, the whole thing was very weird).

[yubsie]

My theory is to go to battery power on my laptop. THough that doesn't help the modem, and of course unplugging the modem causes PROBLEMS. :p I'm annoyed that tech support has some sort of delusions of not being customer service and therefore getting weekends off. I wants my internet! (Especially since Ryan has INTERNET EXPLORER. :p)

LOL, ouch. And you can't talk him around?

(you missed the crackiest thing ever last night, btw. The fic was so bad it made me write haikus)

[yubsie]

He keeps insisting he doesn't NEED all the stuff that makes ANY OTHER BROWSER better. Apparently the fact that Firefox randomly gave me trouble makes IE better. :p

I missed HAIKUS? That makes me a sad Ewok!

My Sims have been getting into such ridiculous antics that I've wanted to tell you about!

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

LOL. He won't even try Opera, then?

Yeah, haikus. Hannah accidentally said
"You are so insane
For reading this
fic"
and we thought it was really funny, so I made it into
"You are so insane
For reading this fanfic and
You need some brain bleach".

It was seriously the weirdest fic of all time. I mean, it was like, actual crack. I made another haiku to describe my confusion, and I think it works pretty well:

"Nadia's a whore
Bourne and lesbians of doom
CTHULHU WHAT WHAT"

In the original comment over IM, there were about eleventy more WHATs.

[yubsie]

LMAO! That's beautiful! Was there really CTHULU?

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. The lesbian of doom who was attached to Julia Thorne at the time took her to INNSMOUTH and then they had some kind of ritual orgy on an altar and there was chanting and a Deep One and my entire brain exploded.

[yubsie]

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!! There are NO WORDS! There are, however, KEYBOARD MASHES! :p

DFJLDFJEW JERLWEMJ OPIROPEWK?!

I think it was the Rasputin chick, but I could be wrong, the LODs were Suetastic - no, it was that lady whose name was simultaneously Kate and Selene - and she had communed with the Deep Ones or something and had this pendant thing she wore sometimes that was like, made of evil. And she explains the entire Cthulhu mythos IN THE TEXT and like, there was no Lovecraft credit or warning or anything ever! It just said it was an Alias/Bourne What Have You crossover.

[yubsie]

I weep for your fandom. :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Han Solo does, too.

And it kind of made me wonder if they'd ever seen the show, because they kept talking about how dark Nadia's skin was.

[yubsie]

Of course, you HAD seen the show and thought she was tall. :p

Poor Han. :(

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

LOL, good point. But she usually wore heels and the camera angles were weird! (oddly, I do not appear to have an Alias icon except this one)

The paragraphs describing the characters were always funny because they used run-on sentences and were particularly cruel to poor Weiss. Well, to be fair, the entire fic was. :-p

[yubsie]

You're just that special. :p

How did Weiss get described? :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Uh, fat, young and vaguely stupid? And cheated-upon. Poor guy.

[yubsie]

Now he wishes he was at Taco Bell? :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Unless Cthulhu is there.

[yubsie]

Cthulu loves him some flatbread. Or chihuha. :p

[seryan.livejournal.com]

Jesus loves.
Allah forgives.
Cthulu thinks you'd make a nice sandwich.
