    What if the current one goes on for another page or two before Elki locks it? Then you'll feel silly.

    Nice pic and title though.

    My Casio EX-S600 has a shitload of different quality settings, and can do stuff like sepia or black-and-white if I specifically want an old-timey look to it.

    Is there a setting for "8/16 mm"?

    I have locked my 2 year old nephew out of the computer room so I won't have to watch his stupid ass.

    So far, he's been jiggling the doorknob and occasionally knocking non-stop for 12 minutes.

    He has excellent stamina.

    Nah, I'm not supposed to be watching him. I'm preventing my parents from pawning him off on me so they can watch.... a talk show.

    Plus I don't feel like watching him to make sure he doesn't hurt himself, because that would be counter productive to my desires.

    As much as I hate small children, I'm advocate actually looking after them if they are your responsibility.

    I agree children should be looked after. But the kid isn't my responsibility, both my parents are home. I've been fighting a head cold for the past few days, and between vomiting and cursing all that was ever good and holy I don't feel like watching him.

    Plus I'm pissed because this morning I was woken up by him screaming 5 inches away from my ear as loud as he could. From a very erotic dream that I very much did not want to be woken from. Because the kid couldn't reach a ball he wanted to throw at me.

    Oboro:

    1) Tell the collection agency that you're a broke college student and that you fully intend to pay them off but you can't do it until your financial aid comes in. Creative finagling can keep collection agencies at bay for months.

    2) When I got a forebearance, I did it over the phone and it took effect immediately.

    You're probably justified in feeling this way. I just think dumbshit parents are easier to tolerate than dumbshit kids, because at least the parents are old enough to know that it's not appropriate to scream at the top of their lungs because they're not getting their way. Most of them, anyway.

    Your people's determination is lacking.

    It helps I've got over a dozen nephews and/or nieces are enough if I ever want to see children be adorable. Three specifically. The others pretty much suck.

    I felt this way before I became a parent, but now whenever I get barreled over by 150 pounds of yodeling toddler in the jungles of Walmart I can't help but direct the lion's share of my ice daggers at the sweats-clad baby factory waddling along in tow.

    I don't mind kids. I mean, my mom ran a nursery/day-care out of our house during my formative years so they hold very few mysteries for me, but even so I think they're pretty cool. I also cannot pass up the chance to mold a mind in my own terrible image.

    I know I'd make a horrible parent, because my natural instinct in dangerous situations is always to see how it'll play out, even if I know it'll play out horribly.

    I'm sure if I had children they'd end up being accidentally maimed or killed because of it.

    Well, if I ever had kids, they would just be exercises in Asian academic overachievement. Music lessons start at the age of 4. If they can't do long-division by the age of 5, I will have to disown them and start over.
