I can do them by pressing alt+ctrl+e - é. That works for all the vowels - á, é, í, ó, ú. Of course, that's only one type of accent per vowel but it's better than nothing.
The result for me is the symbol for euro (€) and it doesn't work for other vowels.
Also, as far as French is concerned, it's the wrong accent. Apart from é, no other letter ever sports it.
I guess it's useful for Spanish, though.
I often wonder why I regularly stay up until the early hours of the morning. Like it's 5:48am now and I doubt I'll be in bed before 6 or even 6:30. Granted this is a little later (or earlier, depending on how you look at it) than normal for me - I believe my average bed time would be around 4 am. And it's not as if I'm doing anything productive, just wasting time playing games and listening to music for the most part. I think I need to get some drive back into my life, I need to work out what the hell I want to do other than sit around playing games and listening to music. I'm not that far off being 30 years old and I'm still living my life like I was a teenager with no responsibilities.

Are... are you me? I've been wrestling with this exact same problem lately. Worst part is when I get all proactive for a week, then fall right back into the trap.

I'm lucky if I can manage a week of being proactive. Hmmm.
Keep in mind that my idea of being "proactive" is vaguely waving my hand at the problem and groaning loudly until it goes away.
I should be happy as I got at one good thing done today - stopped my processor from overheating. Now I can relax when gaming instead of worrying about my CPU temperature.
And that is it for me this fine morning. Huh, up past dawn two out of the past three days. That's not good. I'll leave you lot with my current favourite song (because of Alan Wake): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f_hewSrAH4
If this were the Twilight Zone, it would turn out that ShaggE and corruptbiggins were the same person all along right about...now.
...Now.
Dammit. Guess not.
According to his sig, he reads Tom Clancy, and I consciously and vehemently make an effort to never read Tom Clancy, so we haven't formed a singularity quite yet.
Now that I've pointed this out, whatever omnipotent creature is responsible for this reality glitch will soon correct its mistakes. Sadly, "correcting" likely consists of unleashing countless evil abominations to decimate everything and start anew. ... My bad.

Shame on you! Destroying reality through carelessness? At least put some effort into it!
Go read Tom Clancy right now. If this dimension is toast, I wanna see a singularity before it all blows up.
Whenever I hear Cotton-Eyed Joe, I think of the flying lawnmower, and I am filled with glee. Seriously, why the hell does watching that video make me feel so happy? It's like what Del Griffith does to you.
Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed forum, before you make your decision, consider this. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Chewbacca.
Now think about that for one moment. That does NOT MAKE SENSE! Why am I talking about Chewbacca when nobody brought it up? Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed forum, it does NOT MAKE SENSE! So while you're on this thread, debating the Emancipation Proclamation and whatnot, think to yourself. Does it make sense? No, it doesn't. Ladies and Gentlemen it does NOT MAKE SENSE! The defense rests.

Wow. That's deep, man. I think I'll adopt this as my personal philosophy. Bentham, you've been replaced!
All the presidential candidates suck. I'mma write in vote for Gaius Baltar and Lex Luthor on a combined ticket. Question is: who would be president and who would be vice president?

Make them arm wrestle for it. I generally finds that solves most conundrums.
Pants, I thought about getting these for you for your birthday. Then I didn't. But hey, it's the thought that counts, right?
Mints of indeterminate flavor in pseudo-Socialist Realist packaging exploiting Comrade Lenin's image for profit? Smarminess aside, I now crave these and anyone who gets them for me will get my undying gratitude. I don't expect any, natch; but holy frak that's awesome.

Procrastinator.
Pushy
Just saying. Procrastination becomes perendination sooner than you know.
Also, this spellcheck thinks I spelled perendination wrong. Silly spellcheck, of course I mean perendination, not peregrination or predestination.
Spell check is retarded. Like, actually retarded.
It is that.
Hmmm, I wonder if it knows xenial?
Nope.

Huh. For me it's just alt + e. Not at the same time. Thought I'd try it just to see if it worked. And it did!

That's gotta be the funniest thing I've seen all week. I don't know why, but it is.
No one knows why, but stealing it from Tope is the best thing I've done all day. Well, that and vodka coffee. It's a toss up.

... I also discovered that song through Alan Wake not too long ago.
I'm scared.

I'll definitely win in the next season of American Iranian idol ... that theme song is my wining ticket!
...Now.
Dammit. Guess not.
The twist is that your timing was off.
Ah, Timing! Many a good joke has been ruined by your fickle nature!
Fie upon you! Fie!
Nothing much I can say to that.
You totally did just say something to it, though.

Or did I? Does a non-answer qualify as a response? Now, we delve into deep philosophical territory.
No. No on all three counts. Or maybe yes?
INCEPTION
Exactly.
It was better five years ago when it was set to "Cotton-Eyed Joe".
I already have a theme song, and nothing you can ever come up with will be as catchy as it.
Let's all be happy. Together.

No fair! Luthor has mech suits and sometimes powers! Baltar just fraks Sixes. It's sort of debatable as to who is more badass.
