My dad passed away today, and I feel...useless..scared shocked, I know this isn't you know this place isn't a therapy session, but I'm shocked..and...I don't know...just shocked.
EDIT: Sorry for the short post, I really don't know what to say. Words seem so meaningless and often wrong in such terrible times.
If you need someone to talk I will listen.

Words seem sort of hollow in the wake of a loss, and, unfortunately they're all I have any talent with. I'm truly and deeply sorry to hear that you've lost your father, and as with Tope, I'll offer a friendly ear and a shoulder to cry on if you need it.
Damn, it's not often that words totally and utterly fail me, but this is one of those times. I'm so sorry, man. My dad has an aneurysm, so there's always the looming threat that I could very suddenly find myself in the same position, but still, I can't even imagine. Even though we (or most of us) are just faceless strangers on the internet, know that we're pulling for you.
Yay new laptop. And with all new laptops I get the joy of reinstalling all of my games. Yay.

Just caught up with Parks and Recreation. 30 episodes in 2 days. Can't wait for January 20th, for I have 4 sitcoms to watch now. Yes, my life is pathetic, but I'm happy.
Best wishes to you, Icedhope. Since people seem to be having trouble finding words, here is a video with lots of them in it (called Word Disassociation)

I'm sorry to hear that.
In other news, I really hate waking up early, and I'm glad that it's Christmas break. I don't have to wake up for school and I can sleep like the dead.
...er, sorry, I didn't mean, uh... my condolences.

Im so sorry. I think the best thing to do is take time off and just try to come to terms with it.

The only family members I've lost were great-grandmothers, both from old age. They were freaking awesome, one of them died when I was 6 or 7, the other when I was 12 I think.
I have problem with death to the point where I can't watch some movies or play some games. TF2: none of them look real, HL2: I'm fighting aliens, COD: no way.
I fear death. I fear that I could lose my entire family at any moment, and that one's mostly my paranoia. I'm always the most worried about my mother, who has been smoking since she was my age. I can not say that I know how Icedhope feels, and I know I never want to, but I know I eventually will. My question is when will I? I do not want to know the answer.
I don't know what I was trying to accomplish here, but I think I failed.
Death really is a strange thing. I've lost family members, such as my two grandmothers and grandfathers, but it helps to know that they were getting old and therefore their time to go. The hardest death I think I've had to face was that of my friend. The worst thing about her death is that it wasn't her time.
I don't fear death for myself, but I do fear for those around me. It really is hard to lose someone close to you. So, my thoughts are with you also, Icedhope.
The biggest problem for me was when my first great grandma died. I lived in the same house as her my whole life, She was the person I looked up to the most, she was a wonderful person. I was just down the hall when she died. I cried my little head off. I'm tearing up now just typing about it. This was 9 or 10 years ago and I have trouble thinking about it
Until the 13th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1967–1968, the unit kelvin was called a "degree", the same as with the other temperature scales at the time.
Lucky accident or TT did its research? You decide.
So many people don't respect me and there might be a hint that they think I need to earn their respect. I don't want their respect they are pig headed and rude "vultures".
Also, this is the first picture taken with my new camera! Plus it has a setting that takes pictures at perfect resolution for forum posting, so no more resizing. Woo!

Can I have whatever recipe you used. I like to bake. I make a killer pumpkin pie.

In order to have respect, you have to give it as well.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pan (preferably springform) with parchment paper. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter, and press into bottom of pan and about 2/3 up the sides. Bake crust for 10 minutes and allow to cool completely.
Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Add pumpkin, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice and continue to beat until smooth and creamy. Pour filling into cooled crust and bake for 60 to 70 minutes. Allow to come to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight. Serve with whipped cream.
Now for my additions. Since this is a cheesecake, the recipe really ought to say to bake it in a water bath. Just pick a pan a bit larger than the one you're using, put your cheesecake inside, and fill it about 3/4 to the top with the hottest water you can, boiling if you can manage to get it in there. I find it's easiest to do if you put the two pans in the oven and then add the water. Also, if you're using a springform pan, do your best to wrap the outside with foil to keep water out. Odds are it'll still leak a bit and might sog out your crust just a bit, but not too bad.
When you cut it, I'd suggest cutting into about 12ths using the longest, thinnest knife you have, dipping it in hot water and drying it before each cut. Make sure you cut down, then slide the knife out.
Also, this recipe happens to be very similar to my standard cheesecake recipe. For that, leave out the nutmeg, allspice, and cinnamon, and exchange the pumpkin for another package of cream cheese and another egg. For the recipe I use most often, cut that recipe into two, make half with a fruit-flavored cream cheese, and layer the fruit flavored half of the batter in the bottom of the pan. I'll be doing that recipe for New Year's with blueberry cream cheese.
...Shit, I forgot, tomorrow's New Year's Eve, so I have to make that blueberry cheesecake tonight.
Much thanks. I now need some sort of excuse to make this, Probably after I make either Key Lime Pie or Rhubarb pie. But all three need to happen at some point.
Why do I have the sudden urge to write some sort of Dresden Files Fanfiction? I am not the FanFiction type.
I'd like thank all of the little people I stepped on, and the big people I also managed to step on, and the guy who is probably japanese who made the avatar for making it.

You got to admit. You got the stuff, the magic, the real pzazz.
No one has had it like you got it since the time Jesus moon walked across water...

Degrees Kelvin does not exist. It's just Kelvin, not degrees Kelvin. And Emmet Browns calls himself a scientist...

Accidental "s" makes me imagine Cleveland changing their football team's name to the "Emmet Browns"... make this happen, Ohio.
This one's pumpkin.

Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 7 crackers)
5 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
Filling:
3 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
Whipped cream (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pan (preferably springform) with parchment paper. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter, and press into bottom of pan and about 2/3 up the sides. Bake crust for 10 minutes and allow to cool completely.

You accused him of being "so weeboo it hurts." Poser.
