Whatever Matt Feels Like Posting

YES! I had a feeling they would listen to Wikipedia, Google, and so on! Dunno if anyone in Congress saw some of my replaced userpics too, but I'll keep pretending they did :P

Starting tomorrow, I'm gonna change the userpics I did manage to replace back to normal, although the darkened versions will remain in my userpic space until a) we find out for sure that the compromise won't be just as bad (which I doubt it will, but still...) or b) I run out of room for normal userpics (which will take a while, as I'd need over 120 more for that to happen).

I'll also continue to make more, because even if SOPA did not ruin my life by making it impossible to ever finish my creative vortexes, the darkened userpics still count as at least 300* new creative vortexes that I've gotta get rid of. They just won't be my highest priority for now.

To celebrate, I'm gonna type as many words and phrases that SOPA's too-vague wording could have cracked down on my use of despite them being fair use or not even trademarked as I can in 10 minutes:

Time's up. I managed 172 (if I counted right), although there were a few times that I paused because what first came to mind would have been a bizarre juxtaposition had I written it down right away (though apparently not always, as I put Mocorono Nodle next to Bilbo, Pac-Man next to Celine Dion and Grey's Anatomy next to Dr. Octagonapus & Watch).

*It's been a while since I counted how many unmade normal userpic ideas I have and added them to the amount I've already uploaded...

For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

( So here goes )

( Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

pathvain_aelien and I were playing Mario Kart Wii not too long ago (surprise, surprise) and we noticed the creepiest thing.

She and Waenya sound EXACTLY the same in Mii form. (yes, I played as a Waenya Mii a couple of times)

...I know. I'm scared too.

Make fun of me for playing as a girl

I'll be at Camp El Tesoro from June 21-26. Hopefully, I won't make a fool of myself somewhere at camp like I did EVERY SINGLE TIME I'VE BEEN TO CAMP PREVIOUSLY. >:(

I also recently got pathvain_aelien addicted to Mario Kart Wii. Yay!

( And I'm still making comics with the Garfield Randomizer )

OW! OW! Now my head hurts!

[music tag should be: Matchbox Twenty - All Your Reasons backwards (I used to call the backwards version "Eating Mars Now")]

Yesterday, I finished the rough draft. I finally managed to write a good paper on my own; it was either 1,314 or 1,317 words. It only took me 5 hours. So that comes out to one word every 13.7 seconds. (In case you can't tell, I like calculating statistics that have no real use)

Today, I caught a cold, but I went to school anyway. At least I won't be going to school tomorrow, since I will be doing the last session of a check to see how well I am doing with my autism. I also have relatively not much homework. :)

Yet game mood...Wii. I'm gonna play Mario Kart Wii for a while.

Yet repost mood
