    That's really funny you should say that because, coincidentally, that's precisely what I'm doing now. I'm not just saying that; I actually have a notebook out in front of me and it has actual words written on it.

    MY GAWD! What genre? Subject? I'm not just saying that because I need to steal ideas. :P

    Well, it's hard to say on all of those accounts, partly because I'm only about forty percent of the way completed according to my outline. It's sort of a post-apocalyptic, fantasy, sci-fi mix with a light vinaigrette and maybe some croutons on the side. There is a vague plot of some sort, but its not really the point of my story. The point is more playing around with some characters my friend and I created.

    Oh, and I get to be pretentious and artsy as well at some points.

    What's yours about?

    It should be interesting to see how the croutons fit in, for sure. I'll want to read it upon completion!

    Mine *was* about an exorcist meeting the one demon he couldn't defeat but it felt a bit pedestrian so I'm starting over and kicking around some new ideas. Heh. Kicking. Also, I suppose there's irony in an atheist writing about exorcism, but it's ripe horror territory!

    More or less. I've gone through quite a few rewrites. :P

    I never even heard the exorcist one.

    That's actually an older idea. I came back to it recently. There's, like, four novels in progress on my hard drive.

    The croutons are essential, I'm sure. If I can find somewhere to put them. Most of the time when I'm writing, I feel like I'm patching a leaky ship, trying to remember all of my new ideas as well as the ones my friend throws at me. She's the artist, so she can do that. Like Wednesday, I wanted to redo it all in a Western theme. I've decided against it. Even though a Western fantasy would be pretty interesting to say the least...

    That could be an idea to create something new. There are very few new plots, but oodles of new ways to portray old ones.

    Testosterone is supposed to preclude the use of "oodles".

    Oodles is a legitimate word. Dictionary.com told me so.

    Shows what you know, Dashing. Alcoremortis (Henceforth known by her nickname, Ally) says it checks out. I'm going with the history genius on this one, Mr. I'm-An-Economist-Hurr-Durr.

    So, I suppose this means that whenever someone gets the nickname "Axis" I will have a nemesis!

    There are far more women on this forum than I even thought possible.

    Speaking of, Lindsey Lohan is allegedly "considering" a role in the Walking Dead. Dashing! Fawful! Come be outraged with me!

    That means we could get to see her torn apart in gory fashion. All I can say is-

    The scary fench people are after me! :,O

    I can't blame them really, I screwed up big-time.
    I didn't even go in last thursday, or even finish the work that was left undone, as I was attempting to do the impossible and complete the assignment that was due in on Friday, (I failed that as well).

    I guess Tomorrow I can try to finish the long overdue work and email it to the module leader, not because its going to make any difference, but at least it might put my mind a little bit at ease.

    Gah! Why did I have to let myself down this much. I guess I tried to fool myself that I was actually any good. :(

    (sorry to put you people on a downer but I got nowhere else to put this really)


    I guess my heart's just not in it anymore. Video Games are the only thing that seems to make me happy.

    I think the two main reasons why I have been affected so badly is the double knock of confidence I had, (not that I was really all that confident anyway especially since I've not had a great social aspect to my life for a while, especially since me and my best friend parted ways last year. I miss him! :'( (But at least I'll be seeing him next Sunday which should cheer me up. Someone like minded, someone to properly talk to, someone to game with!)), from both being rejected by the only placement I was even interested in, (plus the message was insultingly late!), and the realisation that even if I do get a degree, its not going to help me all that much, since I have little work experience, and I have no skills that stand me apart, this same thing is a huge barrier to getting a placement as well...

    It's okay... at least they'll be able to save on the zombie makeup/special effects budget with her. :p

    Well, at least the Internets Apocalypse will be sexy. Sexier than running out of IP addresses, at least.

    You're right! No matter what side she's on, she's probably going to die horribly. Thanks for the pickmeup, Fawf. If she's on the Stephen King episode, though; I will kill my television with fire and or bullets. Probably both.

    Give me a break, it's not realistic perhaps, it's not dark, and mature, but it's still sexy and playful. Why so serious? It's still all in good fun.

    It's also not Wonder Woman. All of the grace and majesty and power and pride of the Amazonians has just been shat down the toilet. Even the woman's expression just screams "WEEE! I get to play dress up!"

    I never found the orig Batman to be sexy, but I don't see the problem with taking a slightly cartoon approach for a wonder woman series. It's SEXY

    Hurrgh, zo, Daylight Savings Time, ve meet again.

    Of course it had to happen on the night before I'm going to spend all day running around castles in Southern Germany and trying to refrain from making Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade jokes to people who won't get them.

    The fact that I'm even on the forums is just a sign that I have a crippling addiction to you all.

    If it's not viking or pirate metal I'm out.

    Um...they're the same thing [INCOMING NERD MOMENT].

    "Vikingr" is a verb AND a noun. You can be a Vikingr or go vikingr, both basically mean 'pirate' or something close to it in Old Norse.
