My brother hates me for being so good at it so fast. I told him that my years of DDR playing is finally paying off. I don't think that's a price he would have wanted to have paid. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:134910 2007-09-07T02:54:53Z 2007-09-07T02:54:53Z today at my safety training seminar the women who was teaching it told us about this huge explosion that she caused because she didn't follow the rules. i'm not sure i should listen to anything she says. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:134527 2007-09-07T02:52:38Z 2007-09-07T02:52:38Z the internet lied to me. it said it was raining outside, so i put on a jacket before i walked my dog. however, i ended up uncomfortably warm because not only was there no rain, but there wasn't a cloud in the sky.<br /><br />conclusion: nothing on the internet is credible.<br /><br /><br />next time i may consider looking out the window instead of glancing at my system tray urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:134333 2007-09-02T23:39:02Z 2007-09-02T23:39:02Z is it just me or is <a href="http://www.videlectrix.com/wheresanegg.html">where's an egg</a> simply the best flash game ever? urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:134120 2007-08-08T03:05:31Z 2007-08-08T03:06:08Z sadly, one of the squirrels that lives in our neighborhood has died. we found him in our back yard tonight.<br /><br /><img src="http://nowwhosannoyed.com/pics/mr_squirrel.jpg" /><br /><br /><br />our dog is going to miss chasing it all over the place, and i'm going to miss watching them run around. heh urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:133521 2007-07-25T07:48:36Z 2007-07-25T07:48:36Z 1) dump an entire can of dr. pepper into a large glass<br />2) drop a double shotglass of vodka into the dr. pepper<br />3) chug urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:133122 2007-06-29T04:16:07Z 2007-06-29T04:16:07Z my phone is retarded. when you plug it in and press the power button, the screen lights up and it says "charging... phone is off."

America really scares me sometimes. Even though it was a drill, the police illegally searched CHILDREN, violating a constitutional RIGHT to be free from unreasonable searches. "The purpose was to show how we will evacuate the classroom, not to assault the classroom." So, really what this was about was to get people ready for what's coming. What's it going to be like when kids EXPECT the police to bust in with riot gear on, throw them against the wall, and search them? What if people become OK with that?<br /><br />This comes right in the middle of the most unfair set of elections since... well, the last set of US elections. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:nowwhosannoyed:127134 2006-08-19T05:46:05Z 2006-08-19T05:46:05Z You just can't make stuff like this up.
