    So Halloween is around the corner....

    That actually looks really good for cheap cardboard-ness o.o I'm going to take note - my brother wants an HEV suit so bad, and I promised him I'd make him one for a con at some point. I have no idea if I'm dressing up at all. My art class may or may not be having a Halloween party, and one of...

    Old technology you've grown fond of

    KiplingsCat, that sewing machine is just gorgeous! I'd keep it around even if it didn't work, just for decoration!

    Old technology you've grown fond of

    I SO hear you, having just hefted one of those bastards down two flights of stairs and then out to my car >.> The weight isn't even so much the problem (although my job involves running heavy things back and forth, so maybe I'm just used to that) -- it's the fact that there's no way to carry the...

    Old technology you've grown fond of

    I was still in my teenage expression phase - that's the only excuse I can offer XD Not that I don't still paint my cases, but they're much more...subdued now.

    Old technology you've grown fond of

    I just got rid of my 10 year old CRT monitor and replaced it with an LCD. I would have gone on using it, too, but it went into energy-saver mode one day and refused to come back on, and I figured that meant it was finally throwing in the towel. It had an excellent run for what it was, although...

    4 billion years from now

    Dammit, why did I read all the way through that, with my astrophobia? -goes to curl up in a ball and cry for the eventual fate of her cellular material-

    4 billion years from now

    The first time that happened to me, I was 10. I've been having panic attacks on and off ever since. Why must the universe be so big and scary? I'm confident that mankind will have moved on to other planets/galaxies by that point, although I can't really pin down why. Maybe it's just the...

    Bubbles In Your Chest

    I had a real problem with this when I was younger, although I don't get it nearly as often now. My doctor told me it was muscle strain, kind of like a cramp of the lung. The worst I ever had was three continuous days of the pain and not being able to breathe correctly, but that's never happened...

    Gorgeous wall! That's something like what I want to do when I repaint.

    Yo there

    I got the Defiant achievement before the Submissive one. Just FYI ^_- Thanks for the words of welcome, everyone!

    Post Your Computer Desk

    My gosh-darned little brother got me hooked on the Half-Life universe for good (I was one of those people who played Portal because it was absolutely everywhere and I wanted to be in the loop), and I kind of left my old forum and wound up here after being continually linked here for information...

    I'm in Hudson, and I believe we've met before, at least on the internet! Are you the same Vegeta897 from deviantART, who posted that nice comment on one of my pictures ever so long ago, and who does all of that amazing pixel art, not to mention those Half-Life: Full Life Consequences animations...

    Actually, she is a painting I did a few years back. My PC used to be right up against the wall where the not-black patch is, and I haven't had time to cover it up since I moved all of my furniture.

    Yo there

    'm afraid I don't quite follow -- clarification, please?

    Post Your Computer Desk

    Here's my general desk-area. My room's tiny, so I sit on the bed instead of using a chair or anything: Just got the 5.1 speakers a couple weeks ago, and the monitor is fairly new too (it's an upgrade from my 15" CRT behemoth that finally died after 10 years of service) Also, ignore the...

    Yo there

    I'm a recently-but-not-too-recently converted Half-Life geek seeking a new forum to call home. Just registered after maybe a week of lurking around, so I thought I'd pop in with an official hello.

    Tired of Alyx, hopefully she dies

    This, to me, is the enormous shortcoming of the otherwise wonderful Half-Life experience, especially in HL2 where you're surrounded by NPCs who actually have individual personalities -- these people are supposed to be my friends, and yet I can't do anything to reciprocate that friendship. Alyx...
