• 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?

    When games don't have a large enough penalty for losing.

    I don't really like penalties for sucking! That just makes me angrier and thus the game becomes less fun, for me anyway. I'm not very good at video games so I usually need a lot of retries to get there, and (especially with life systems) I'll get annoyed and stop playing if there's too severe a...

    What are you reading? II

    Talking about magical realism, I finally finished The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake, Aimee Bender, via my habit for buying books on Amazon based solely on how interesting I find the titles. It wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be, but it was entertaining enough! Lots of people hated...

    Gender-Neutral Terms?

    Yes, that is what I meant! 'If in doubt leave it out,' I screamed as Kathy drowned

    Gender-Neutral Terms?

    You don't know real pain until someone has used 'it's' correctly and then incorrectly within the same sentence.

    Studies, Research, and Work

    I'm an English (Lit) student! I'm in third year of my degree, so I'll get my ordinary degree at the end of this year and my Honours at the end of fourth year. Assuming I pass my dissertation, that is! I'm pretty interested in pursuing a Masters degree and ultimately a Ph.D., but I'm not quite...

    What's your favourite shape of pasta?

    Fusilli (spiral shape)! It makes me really happy, for some reason. I like conchiglie (that's the seashell one) and farfalle (the kinda bowtie-shaped one) also. They're so cute and pretty.

    The Perks of being a Wallflower

    Well, considering it was directed by the author, I'd certainly hope it was faithful to the book!! I still haven't seen it, because I insist on reading the books first when it comes to them being adapted to film and I'm horrifically lazy. I've heard nothing but good things about it though.

    Pokemon X/Y

    Well yeah, but that doesn't mean that it's necessarily likely to actually be put into action! You know what the fandom's like; they'll hang onto ideas forever. Kratos' idea kind of makes sense though, but I'm still not sure they'd want to throw the starter typings off like that.

    Pokemon X/Y

    I dunno, I don't think it's very likely that they'd give one starter a complete immunity to another's typing, even if it's only half. :B it's a cool idea but I dunno!! The starters are meant to be about balance, so...

    Forum Games? I think? I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but that's where I'd assume it would go.

    Winter Season Holidays

    Hogmanay (or New Year for heathens) is a bigger deal in Scotland than Christmas is! The first and second of January are bank holidays, so everyone has enough time to recover from the festivities. Although nobody here knows the words to 'Auld Lang Syne' either, I'm afraid. Christmas is...

    Gun Control

    Uh, 'gun crime' is used for people causing injury using air rifles, also! Air rifles are not as restricted as proper guns. That may also have contributed to the increase? Also, gun crime in Scotland is dropping significantly. Just a heads-up on the UK thing, because it's not true everywhere!

    What do you call sugary, carbonated, unhealthiness?

    Gun Control

    Hahaha, that's pretty much the consensus on Glasgow, too. Glasgow Has Problems and we don't talk about them.

    Gun Control

    I thought Limerick, Ireland was the murder capital of Europe? You stole it from Glasgow, you dirty swines. :P But I'm very much for strict gun control laws. People kill people, yes, but it is a lot easier when you have a gun. Guns have literally no purpose other than to threaten, injure, and...
