Well fuck you guys, I'm reading enjoyable books. :P Namely, I'm doing what I mentioned the last time I posted in this thread: reading all the Discworld books. Twelve books into it, and I've come across one abortion, two mehs, and nine greats. I'd say those are pretty good scores considering the genre we're talking about. :P
I've been meaning to read them. How bad of an abortion are we talking here?

A few more about me I guess: - I sneeze more than anyone I know, it must be some sort of allergy. I have fits that wake me up every night between 4-5am. Always, 4-5am. (I'm writing this after waking up from one, it is just past 5am)
- I used to listen to metal when I was a younger teenager, but I don't listen to it at all anymore, as I find the noise unpleasant. I never thought I would be one of the people who enjoy classical music, as I always thought they must be faking it to seem intelligent or sophisticated, but yeah, it grew on me.
- I have a weird issue with inanimate objects, where I project personalities on them. I can never throw something away because I think it might cry from feeling unwanted. Ridiculous, I know, but it's true.
- I am still somewhat afraid of the dark. It comes and goes. I'm sitting in the dark right now, and It doesn't bother me. However if I had to go to the bathroom, I would turn on every light on the way there. (Serial Killers and monsters are afraid of the light)
- I am afraid of clowns. Not jokers or mimes though. I think it might be the hair.
- My ambition is to have a pet hedgehog. It was going to be a duck at first, but they are more outdoorsy and I am not outdoorsy.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. It was pretty awful, I really didn't enjoy it.
I saw it with a friend, she said she had read the books and that this was a total disappointment, and I believe her.
The acting was painful, I don't think a single actor in that did a decent job. It was all very hammy.
The only pleasure we got out of the movie was making fun of how bad it was.

-Last but not least, I always feel like I am that forgotten one most of the time, whether in forums or irl. I can hang out with just about any friend or group, be right next to the person, and they turn around trying to look for me. Seriously. Is my presence that low? In schools, I try participating, but teachers tend to overlook me and pick people nearby, I state my mind or opinion in some matters, next person can say the same thing, and others would respond to the other person, as if he or she were the one who said it first. With forums, it simply occasions where I get into posts I thought had meaning and people would look into or reply upon, good or bad, but get skipped over and act if it never were there in the first place. Funny thing too because just days ago, I made a post to another editor on the staff boards. Something lighthearted and fun, and it only got noticed the next day, and seemed to notice the things posted later, far earlier. Heck, feels like the reviews I do for all these years, I did not get fan nor hate mail or even forumed trolled of all things. Granted I don't like it to happen, but sometimes I wonder if anyone even checks my stuff without me pushing them to look? :p
Heck, I wonder if this post will be acknowledged too, but we'll see. :p
I read your post and I AFFIRM you.

I bought Unlimted Saga when I was 12 or 13, back when I thought the Square/Square-Enix logo still had respectability to it, and I was very confused by it, it was not what I wanted at all. I was so bored, I think I might have played an hour the day I got it, then another hour the next day, just to please my dad, because I had begged him for it and I didn't want to seem ungrateful.

I would like to report that the cheese in a can (cheez wiz, whatever you call it) made me a little ill. So I don't think I will be trying it again any time soon :P I'll stick with normal cheese in the meantime.
Also, thanks for the links CastNuri, I figured there would be something like that around!
