• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Gender-Neutral Terms?

    My delighfully Welsh housemate pronounces 'here', 'year' and 'ear' in exactly the same way. (adorable: she thought the expression was 'donkey's ears' rather than 'donkey's years' because donkey's ears are long) I still feel that 'they' is only really used if a person has stated that it's their...

    Oh my goodness, I've spent the last three days or so being HOOKED on VLR. I'm about 26 hours in and, like you, have been terrified of that saving bug, so my solution is to PLAY IT AT ALL TIMES so I never have to save. The timeline-jumping thing is so great though, it means I actually can keep...

    What's your favourite shape of pasta?

    What do you call a single piece of stuffed pasta? Tortelonely. I like fusilli best because it's the easiest to drain properly. I usually have penne because it's cheapest, but even if I shake the colander, there's always bits of water left and it makes my sauce too runny :(

    Studies, Research, and Work

    Hahahaha I love it when people say they're studying BS. The best fish. I'm really pleased for you but also DO NOT UNDERSTAND this at all. I dislike and am so, so bad at research methods. I just got my grade transcript for my MA course and I got 55/58/62 on the three research methods modules...

    What are you reading? II

    Finally, finally, after so very much persuading, I've started the behemoth that is Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel. (Mhals assures me it's the best thing ever, and despite being the size of a small European country, not difficult to read. Although it's worth mentioning she's currently reading...

    The "Fwee" Thread

    This made my day :D Between that and my PIERCINGS, you may be right. I've never felt so badass. I'm also pretty happy because I'm at home for the first time in a while and my BFF (who I haven't seen in ages) is staying over and she got me a big cuddly Tepig because I'm brilliant.

    The "Fwee" Thread

    Went skiing and was acually semi-decent at it! Didn't seriously hurt myself, but beat my nose up enough from faceplanting to get a cool black eye.

    HANDWRITE

    This is (according to the file on my computer) from 2008, but my handwriting hasn't changed any since then. (Left-handers are also > you.)

    Gun Control

    This is assuming that every person who kills someone else with a gun would go out and find something else to commit murder with. Guns can be used to kill someone near-instantly and from great distance. You can shoot first, ask questions later with a gun in a way that you can't with any of the...

    Pokemon X/Y

    This game had me at 'Wild Pikachu appeared!'. Honestly, Nintendo; Pikachu's been so very good to you, and you keep relegating it to Pokedex-filler status :( Also good: Chespin (unless it evolves into something horrific, I'm definitely starting with it) and the deer legendary. I love it. It's...

    The "Fwee" Thread

    I'm all packed for my holiday tomorrow! I am super duper excited about it. It's going to combine three of my greatest pleasures: hanging out with friends, seeing my girlfriend and not having to work. I'm also going to try skiing for the first time, which I'm excited (but very nervous) about.

    Capital punishment

    I'm pretty sure it's sexist in a similar way - I was doing some reading about it quite some time ago, and (iirc) a man who commits the same crime as a woman is more likely to be put on death row, and you're more likely to face execution if you commit a violent crime against a woman.

    Useless Facts

    Is that fact limited to Ancient Romans, or does it hold true for the citizens that inhabit Rome today? :p

    Doctor Who Club

    Also the Royal Mail are doing some Doctor Who stamps next year! They look great, I'm going to stock up on stamps for the rest of my lifetime :D

    Is anyone else also like this?

    I find this is what Nuzlockes are really great for - they force you to use Pokemon you've never really thought about that much, and when it turns out one is especially great (in-game, not necessarily competitively), you end up loving it. Pokemon me and my housemates have fallen in love with...

    Oh my goodness, I would LOVE to obsess over VLR with you, but I've not actually gotten that far with it - I desperately want to play it, but real life keeps making me do other stuff (work, sleep, be social). I know exactly how you feel, though; when I was playing 999 I made pages of notes about...

    Winter Season Holidays

    DOCTOR WHO CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! Evil snowmen! Sontarans declaring war on the moon! Time-travelling, sword-wielding, interspecies lesbians! (I love Christmas TV and demand everyone in my house watch the cool shows and films with me)

    What Games Are You Playing?

    I finished playing 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors on the DS a little while back (I picked it up when I was in America last (it never came out in Europe) and it's a BRILLIANT game), and am on the sequel, Virtue's Last Reward, now. I'm only an hour or so in, but it's really good fun :)
