Well apparently on the 7th due to a few issues I will be without internet for a few days. Looks like I'll be either watching TV which doesn't really have anything good on lately that I'm interested in, or I'll be playing retro games or something. Ah well just annoying is all. I mainly use Netflix to watch TV so it kinda sucks.

I BEAT SEPHIROTH IN KINGDOM HEARTS II!!!!

I beat him in KH2 after 71 tries.  At level 40 he's a nightmare I had to specially customize my ability set just for him.

I got a 12 pack of black cherry soda for only $2.71 Normally 12 packs cost around $4. So I'm happy for today. Also got an ultra blue monster drink today.

For Christmas I got a 32 inch 1080p HDTV, a Wii U but that's a late gift and we can't get it yet, and $40 worth of steam money which I already spent. My aunt also made me a crochet blanket with blue, sky blue and dark blue colors.

The problem is that healthy food in America is substantially more expensive than then garbage food. Having enough money to pay for that is not a matter of willpower, as popular as that opinion might be.

What is needed it cheap, decent quality, basic foods. Vegetables, rice, potatoes, etc. Cheap vegetables in the US hardly seem to qualify as plant life, much less food. It simply refuses to rot. Bacteria don't even want the stuff.

Veggies and fruit are cheaper than meat I'm not sure where you got those statistics from. I've never seen Bananas and other fruits have high prices and there's nothing wrong with our potatoes or other vegetables, potatoes have natural defenses against bacteria and other harmful germs that's why they do not rot fast at all. Many fruits and veggies if stored properly will last a long time. There's a reason the Irish used to survive off of potatoes during famine. They are a hardy vegetable that hardly ever got sick, it's also why a lot of Irish didn't survive though because eventually their potato crops did get diseased during the famine and that was all they had for a few years. But in the past they didn't have as much knowledge as everyone has now, nor did they have ways to stop the disease from spreading, either way our potatoes are perfectly fine in the US and vegetables aren't as susceptible to bacteria like other foods are, the way you store your food greatly affects its longevity.


By the way rice is cheaper than most foods and doesn't cost much at all at least here in Missouri. So it largely is a matter of willpower usually. I can think of many more healthy foods that are cheaper than junk food if you want me to go on and on about it though.


The problem with Mc Donalds though is even the supposed healthy food is unhealthy. They choose the worst quality meat and over dress their salads which is annoying because people think they're getting something healthier which they technically are, at least healthier than the other crud on Mc Donald's menu, but it's still worse for you than actually preparing your own salad with store bought supplies.

You know why americans have such problems? Because of your bread. There's so much sugar in it!! Gah! My friend said it tastes like cake...

That largely depends on where you get the bread from, and where you get the flour in the case of home made bread. Every country has something bad in their food it's just a matter of researching it. I know someone who grinds their own flour and makes their own bread at home. The biggest problem in America is fast food. Though the larger problem is the fact that others don't have the willpower to choose the healthier alternative then you also have people who don't really care or know it's bad and eat it anyways. Another problem is people not exercising. Which actually is the biggest issue, you can have fattening foods as long as you exercise to burn off what you eat, our breads have less than 1 gram of sugar unless you choose some crazy off brand option.

Nintendo - Good games, bad consoles. I hate the idea of having to buy a Wii U just to experience Nintendo's big name series like Zelda and Mario, which they release exclusively for their consoles. I bought a Wii back in 2007 and regretted it. I only got 2 games during its lifespan - Twilight Princess and Brawl, they were the only games that interested me. Other than that it just served as a glorified Netflix accessor. I'd have been better off with an Xbox 360.

I ain't buying a Wii U, which means I'll be missing out on Nintendos big titles this generation. It's not worth spending hundreds of dollars just to experience 2 or 3 good games. I'm getting an Xbox One this time. I had a Playstation during the 5th generation, a PS2 during the 6th generation, and a Wii during the 7th generation; so this will be my first ever Xbox console. I've been exclusively a PC gamer since the mid 2000s, but there's just too many good games that either aren't available for PC or are just crappy 5 second ports.

yeah moving the smash series was a big problem for me cause i always wanted to play as Red but still haven't i kinda want a Wii for that and some Naruto games i recently learned about but i'm kinda focused on the oculus rift and getting that well getting games for the systems i already have like the ps3,ps2,gamecube,gameboy,psp,Ds Lite
and speaking of "WiiU" i know someone who badgers me to get that instead of the Wii    

Well the Wii U is backwards compatible with Wii titles, and I heard someone say the gamecube adapter actually works for the older titles but I have no way of confirming this myself yet. It'd be smart for Nintendo to make that adapter compatible with older titles as well as some new. (I may be thinking of the classic controller in Wii mode though.)

You can also transfer your Wii shop data to the Wii U's Wii mode so it includes all your purchases on the Wii. That's probably why they suggested you get the Wii U instead.

My back is sore from moving the furniture in my room around yesterday. My dad wanted me to clean it and see if I can find a better way to organize everything so me and my nephew moved around all the furniture vacuumed and everything, but my room has a ton of stuff to move as I tend to collect things that may be useful in the future such as PC parts and even old PC towers.

Anyways organizing entailed moving all my furniture outside my room as well as my desk TV stand and taking my shelf apart it took over 4 hours to do everything. I ended up sleeping shortly after we were done Aside from that yesterday was great though with the stuff we got.

Today I learned how to solder wires back together for my Wii HD cables by watching my dad do it. It's not that difficult of a process if you're careful, and my Wii HD cables work again.  I also learned about the re-wiring process when you need to repair broken cables.

Spoiler: show

My mom's laptop is doing this weird thing that mine isn't doing, and we can't figure out what's going on.

Before anyone says anything: No, it is NOT Sticky Keys. We've checked. We know it's not Sticky Keys. Do not suggest that it is. Besides, Sticky Keys does a completely different sound.

Sometimes, when she presses the shift key, her laptop does a loud BWEE-OOP noise at her.
Sticky Keys usually does a BWAP (what I actually describe as a quack) noise, not a BWEE-OOP noise. And she has already tried turning off Sticky Keys and whatnot. It's definitely not that.

Whenever she searches the internet for a solution, she finds other people who're having the same problem as her. Unfortunately, those people are met with a bunch of people saying "It's Sticky Keys" even if they put in the opening post that IT IS NOT. They'll even reply to the topic saying they've tried everything those people have suggested and, like they said before, it is not Sticky Keys. But the other people refuse to listen and keep saying "No, you just have no idea what you're doing. It's Sticky Keys."

It's not.

There's more than just sticky keys there's also other shortcuts on the keyboard. It's probably filter keys though that's what she's likely hitting. It's different from Sticky Keys. Filter keys makes a beep when shift is held too long.



To disable it find ease of accessibility and click change how my keyboard works. If she has windows 7 it should be from the control panel. Windows 8 shouldn't be too different ease of access should be somewhere in the start menu if it's windows 8.1.

AJ needs more love from Hasbro and DHX.  :')

I actually can't wait to see what season 5 is about we might actually get a episode arc that follows a main plot mixed in with slice of life stuff if we're lucky. I wouldn't mind that season 4 didn't quite pull it off correctly, but I still loved the episodes.

Well I just never get a break it seems. My tooth chipped last night somehow and today after we got out of walmart we put the groceries in the car and for some reason my laptop charger got caught in the door and I didn't notice it, we took off down the road and the charger cord ripped off and we can't afford to replace it given we barely have money for food. So 2 hours until my laptop is no longer usable yaaaaaaaaay.

I kinda see what you mean when you read the lyrics closely. Makes me wonder about them a bit. I also wonder if they will be redeemed villains or still continue being jerks. Technically they're normal girls now from what Twilight said.

One of my favorite things about Rainbow Rocks was the contrast between the Siren's music and the Mane6's music, it helped nail the whole evil villain feeling of the sirens combined with their actions.

By the way, I'm near-sighted, meaning things that are closer are clear and things that are farther are blurry. Some people have the reverse of that, which I think is called far-sighted.
With my near-sightedness, I definitely should never be behind the wheel of a car without my glasses. It'd be hard to define where exactly the lines on the road are and impossible to read the speed limit signs.

I actually have that, things close up are blurrier for me where as things far away are generally much clearer. Including large distances. It's probably why I always played the sniper role in video games. Being used to seeing things far away helped. Though it makes reading books hard sometimes depending on the font size and style.

Mabinogi bandits.... I'm normally fine handling the average kind but when the bandit boss just so happens to spawn when I'm carrying rare goods it really ticks me off.

When you make a grammatical error in something you can not edit after sending. That's what I get for typing while tired though.

Yeahhh, Cryaotic's livestreaming an anime video game that has the option to have Japanese audio with English subtitles. He tried both dubbed and subbed, and he said he liked the dubbed better. There were people protesting in the chat.

I can't stand people like that either, 90% of them are biased and don't even pay attention to the acting in dubs they just instantly hear English and complain, believe it or not I've seen people like that. There's also people who think Japan is a completely flawless country and want to move there.
