  • Thanks, my friend Kyogre made it.

    Softmodding is easier because you're modifying the software, not the hardware, and less chance of a break.
    Either, although actually opening the device is typically called hardmodding while jailbreaking/hacking the software is known as softmodding, basically.
    Well, it's more like recycled leftovers. Sometimes, the soup looks suspicious like the dinner two nights before. It's nice that they're not wasting food, but at least use the food one day later, not two... They do have french fries, but usually the line is so long I just didn't bother.

    If you get whole-grained bread for your PB&J, then you get extra vitamins and fiber stuff! Even if you don't, you still get your carbohydrates, protein, and fat all in one delicious sandwich. Peanuts are supposed to be good for your heart, too! And you get your serving of fruit in the Jam/Jello! I'm starting to get hungry now...

    XD Oh dear, I actually did that once. I was all "this bridge symbolizes Rasoklnikov's life! The railing spans across the entire bridge, symbolizing how his fear will follow him through his entire life! The people pushing against him symbolizes society, etc." I'm not sure how well I did for that analysis, but it was fun writing it XD

    Negrek says that "they will remain surprises--but very lucrative ones, I assure you!" I guess if she gives us something lame, she'll get mobbed by 30 people, so she probably won't do that XD
    Oh, my bio? I need to update that sometime.

    An iDevice includes any Apple product beginning with a lowercase I, but I use it to refer to an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad.
    I don't really have any plans of hosting a website or forum at the moment, to be honest.
    Potatoes everywhere. There's potatoes every meal. There's even potatoes in the soup most of the time. PB&J is probably healthier (not to mention more delicious) than potatoes all day long!

    Hm, point! I think I'll just go memorize some vocab words and word barf when the time comes for it.

    I guess that's the reason I (dis)like Lit: I get to bs up the most absurd stuff and it would still be considered legit. I sincerely doubt that the author intended all this symbolism and deep meaninging behind his or her work that lit class is creating...

    I will think of a witty response to your comment later.

    It's pretty awesome if you are one of them, not as awesome if you're not. Negrek did promise fabulous prizes though...
    XD I understand...! I've been to a summer camp at a college campus before, and I wound up eating salad throughout most of the camp because you can only do so many things with potatoes...

    I will add these to my dictionary. I'm really wondering when I'll ever get to use words like ephemeral and effervescent in my AP Lit writing though... Although I think my lit teacher thinks I'm insane, because my old habit of excessive interpretation is rearing up again... (Raskolnikov kills the landlady because she symbolizes capitalism!)

    Well, you know what they say. If you're not putting it off, you're not doing it right.

    This ASB Event. It's already closed, but it looks like it's going to be pretty epic...!
    NegativeVibe? What's up? You're missing your swag avatar though. D:

    Yeah, Era is dead.
    XD It's only a few months~ Don't worry about it~

    D: Don't you have cafeterias at college though? Or is the food there so horrible that you'd rather eat PB&J?

    Yay~ A B isn't that bad! Anyhow, no problem. Word Barfing really is the way to go for a high grade in Lit...

    College apps have been eating me alive, and my procrastination isn't helping, but otherwise, pretty good! There's a huge event in ASB and I'm spending way too much of my time on it, haha...
    Welcome back! (Heh, I've been slightly inactive too.)

    I've never seen it occur before, but it might be able to.

    Yup. Or up their... never mind.

    Maybe you would be killed in the vortex and be trapped in an everlasting dream depicting an alternate time period? :O

    Yeah. Wait, what? That isn't good. I like having good knees.

    Big or small, that's sweet. I don't see how cougars would be that exciting for tourists, though.

    It's used Perish Song before. Yeah, bad luck. Oh, and random, useless things like Attract on opponents of the same gender.

    That would be awesome. :D Oh, but scream about a nuke or something before you run in.

    Ayup.

    At least they're better than Middle-Eastern Dictatorships!

    Probably a five-foot dogfish(shark). Not sure how much it weighed.

    Yeah, the acids or something help your brain. Right there with you on the sweet tooth, though mine is more for drinks.

    It's the name of the guy who thinks the monkey is the power. :3

    ...PositiveAtmosphere? xD
    Oh! That's okay!

    A child rebelling? Oh, it wouldn't really affect anything how the child acts. It's like genetics, sort of. The parents, no matter what the child does, act as a template for their spirit form. Like in real life, your parents influence your appearance. I'm glad you think so. :3

    When she's more... anxious and scared, I think. But she'll also transform if she has extreme emotions of pretty much anything, it's just that negative ones are more likely to be extreme in her case. Particularly anger.

    You're welcome! Aah, if I had made a Pokémon website, I doubt it'd be that good. I may try my hand at it someday, but I'd want to only if I had extensive original ideas about it. I still do have a website though! And I'm inspired by Pokémon websites for it.

    I was considering a few Final Fantasies. There's some stories left unexplored that I'd like to explore, though I'm not sure my writing is good enough to depict them the way they deserve to be. One FF, for instance, is extremely unloved and barely gets any attention. I'd like to write a sequel to it, but make it good and not have too many crazy fan-created characters that appear and don't make sense to the story. I hope you know what I mean, because I've seen that happen a lot.

    You can make a Pokésona if you'd like! And I changed mine from Vulpix back to Poochyena which I've had for years, because I didn't think Ninetales was for me. And I have this weird habit where everything about the Pokémon, including evolution, need to match me. I have a picture, but it's not coloured yet.

    Yardwork? Is it hard? I've never really done it before. I don't like going outside, you see. Mainly because going outside in this place means being attacked by like a million mosquitoes and insects, particularly in the really really hot summer. (Your parents don't pay you sometimes?)

    And yeah, the tablet does get darker the harder you press it. It gets bolder. If you press lightly, it makes thin lines. Overall, a lot more realistic than a mouse. I didn't really even know that tablets could do that until I got one.

    Ah, the thought of somebody reading my journal, if I had it written out actually... I really wouldn't want that either. I'd be embarrassed, but I think it'd be more awkward questions that would be asked. You should see me with the save button, I press it compulsively as well. In video games, computer stuff, everything. I also back up my things every once in a while on a flash drive, just to make sure.

    Me too! Mostly. Although one day, I went on a little deleting binge through a certain thread where I posted many long things that caused people to tell me that I was "too sad." (By sad, they meant actually sad, not the variety that means pathetic.)

    My parents yell at me every now and then for being on the computer too much, screaming loudly about how it's not healthy and blah blah blah go outside. And I'm like... how am I supposed to go outside? I don't have a car, I don't have friends, and I can't drive. (Where I live, it's absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to get ANYWHERE without car. You have to walk a really really long time, it's just everything's so far apart.) Seriously, I'd go out of my mind without the internet. At least it keeps me sane.

    Yeah, that's pretty awesome too. Awkward silences are my least favourite thing in a conversation. Although awkward silences on the internet are possible, but less awkward. My mind needs lots of time to think responses. Well, not a WHOLE lot of time, but, more than the few seconds that people impatiently expect as they stare you down. I can type up something exciting on the internet too, take my time to make it really good, rather than either stay quiet or spurt out filler to try to keep it going.

    Ah, good for you! It's what I do too, as I've said. I take vast amounts of time on tests, longer than most people. Well, especially math ones. If it's an easy subject, I take as much as most people.
    Heh, no worries! And I don't think you need to reactivate your asb account, unless you disappeared before the whole ASB revision, which then you might need to poke around for a bit...

    But most people evolved their Magikarp already :(
    You know what would be better? If our Magikarp randomly gained Metronome for the battle.

    Heh, that's like my Physics teacher! It seems like there's one of those at every school...

    Nice~ And 89% isn't that bad! As long as your teacher gives you enough homework points to buffer it, you can hover at an A pretty easily.

    I really don't see what the point of oral assignments in English is. It's a good thing our teacher doesn't give them...

    Curly fries! *drools* Now you're making me want some. Mmm... Curly fries...

    You should! And remember to memorize the derivatives for sinx, cosx, tanx, secx, lnx, arctanx, and arcsinx because at least one of them is going to be tested. And also (integral sign)udv = uv - (integal sign)vdu because that is the most useful thing ever. And uh, know that derivatives are the slope of the graph and integrals are the area under the graph. And remember how to do Reimann Sums. And don't forget to check your work! Never forget to check your work, because you will always make a mistake on the stupidest thing and that mistake will always cost you your A.
    Anyhow, good luck! :D
    Not really much left to do. I can play custom games, redesign my home menu, play games from a USB Stick, and many other things.
    The only thing left for me to do is mess with it's internals.
    Spirit Forms have very little to due with physical traits... they're mostly based on personality. So it's more based on parent's personality, yeah. They often share a similar base animal in common. (for instance, a father in the RP who has a lionlike Creation as his Spirit form has a daughter with a catish Spirit Form.)

    She can't actually control it. So how quickly she transforms depends on... random chance. Oh and her emotions. It has already caused odd reactions in the story! But yeah, every human being has a Spirit Form, it's just that the spell to access it isn't very well-known. The spell is called Laithform, ahaha.

    I'm not sure at times what order to type the tags in either. But pretty much, some good advice to avoid losing track is to type out the opening and closing tags side-by-side and then put your information inside of them. <p> </p> mostly goes first. Then you have stuff like bolding, itallics, etc. Make sure that if you start a tag inside of another tag (something, for instance, like <p> <b>Blah</b> </p>) ALWAYS close the tag INSIDE of the tag. You'll notice that both <b> and </b> are inside of <p>. Hopefully, that helps! I rarely lose track that way. And nah, I haven't. Why do you ask?

    Same happens to me on a website I work on... I was considering writing some fan fiction myself, but not of the Pokemon variety. I'm not sure if I could pull it off well since it doesn't involve characters created by me, canon characters.

    Oh, plenty... but most of them are older drawings that don't reflect the quality of my work today... so I'd rather not show them. You don't know what a Pokesona is? It is a person as a Pokemon. A person's persona as a Pokemon. For instance, my current one is a Vulpix. Which is me, as a Vulpix. (With glasses and curly hair) A Pokesona is used to represent a person. Usually. Some people warp it though and make the Pokesona totally unlike themselves to the point where it's more of a character.

    Ah, you're welcome! And ah! You're lucky you get money for that. I don't really get paid for much of what I do. But I guess having internet's enough. Yeah though, you can do loads with digital. It opens up many possibilities!

    I can understand how you'd like traditional better... those are sort of my feelings about it as well. DeviantArt does have lots of cool uses of digital, yeah... and a tablet is a bit challenging to get used to if you've been mousing it the whole time. It's pressure sensitive, so you really have to get used to that and how to use it properly.

    Yeah, pretty much though. I do that with my journal writing. I think that handwriting thing though happens to everyone. Sometimes your hand just isn't performing up to standards. The good thing though is that you don't have to worry about it being deleted at a moment's notice! Or a bad thing. Depends on your opinion.

    I seem to be really obsessive about what I post though... to the point of I can't tell if it's just me being crazy or if what I'm posting is actually inappropriate. So I have to resist the urge to delete things often. It is troublesome.

    They shouldn't react like that, but I guess it's just because of the way they understand the internet. They don't think of it as a place for, ahem "serious business." It's just some place to spend time doing trivial things occasionally.

    That's what I like about online too! You can take your time... although in IM, it's a bit less. But still, there is a lot less pressure than in real life where a person is staring you down and you must answer immediately or they'll think you're not listening/ask you if something's wrong.

    It's a good thing then that they're not as bad as before... and understandable to want to be around peopel you know. It's also okay to take a bit of time to think. I used to take the whole class period (which was roughly an hour) to finish a 20 question math test... that stuff does need time to be understood.
    Fine, I guess. I've been mostly away from the forums because of personal problems.

    I have been consumed into the realm of Wii Hacking.
