domingo, 16 de julio, 2006 After much finagling, I finally fixed this site so it looks good on both IE and Firefox. Well, the entry box still juts out a tad too much, and the right side doesn't align with the header, but right now I don't really care because the Firefox version no longer looks like a shite page from the Big Book of British Smiles.
I still have no idea why the tables didn't line up in Firefox, leading to what I called the "staircase effect." I figured it was my own fault, but I used the same logic for my other nublog and it's fine. Somehow the fact that I gave my tables unequal cellpadding made some columns fatter, sticking out unevenly like unsightly teeth.
If it sucks on Opera, T.S. (tethered swimming) and Netscape users -- wow, I haven't used that in, like, forever.
Edit: I forgot to write, that I still haven't quite figured out what's going on with the personalized fields on the profile page when viewed in Firefox. This problem seems to be happening to everyone though, so. Okay.
23:25 Comment! (6) | Recommend! | Categories: site [t] It snuck up on me faster than Seta Sôjirô sábado, 15 de julio, 2006 Holy crap, how the hell did I get to be in the top ten most popular? How did I even end up in the top 25, period? It's so weird seeing my icon up there, mocking me, teasing me. Singing off-key to me.
Edit: Now I am twelfth. This is still very different and mysterious to me.
Today (or yesterday afternoon), some cunt gave us the evil eye when we disrupted her newspaper reading because we sat down at her table (which is near the door). Uh, we're trying to patronize your shitty-ass restaurant where my friend found a bug in her food in, go sit someplace else in your woefully empty place. The only reason we came in is because it was the closest for my tired grandparents to sit down in. The waiter, who was nice, explained it would take half an hour because they were cleaning out back. The combination of my dislike for the restaurant, the woman's douchebagginess, and the fact that I was very hungry, had us leaving after about ten minutes for next door. Asshole.

Cindi: Is there anything I can do to raise this grade?
Professor: Some students do extra credit work.
Cindi: Like what?

Happy Independence Day!

Craaaaaaap I accidentally cleared my Freecell statistics. Now how will anyone believe that I won the game 252 times and lost 170???
And because in the three years here I still have no reason to use this smiley, here it is for no reason:
20:29 Comment! (4) | Recommend! | Categories: pissed [t] lunes, 19 de junio, 2006  I remember watching this in the theatre. Not bad for teen-movie fare, and definitely not a bad disc for $3.50. (Plus, it's got the trailer[s] with the "lost" footage of Chase rolling a tire down the hallway that, at the time, no one except myself and my friend remembered from the TV commercials!) It's got a gimmick, or several (dating someone to make someone else jealous, dressing up a guy to suit your needs, falling for your next-door neighbor) but what doesn't? It was written by Rob Thomas and I can definitely see parallels between this and his later work(s), especially in the dialogue. My only true gripe is that Nicole's mom and Chase's dad also got together, which is all kinds of squicky. Talk about incestuous. And the song that closes on this revelation is... "Wig-Wam Bam." Catchy song, but... ew.
"Wam Bam Bam / Gonna get you if I can!"
00:50 Comment! (1) | Recommend! | Categories: dvds [t], movies [t], cinema [t] You know what really grinds my gears miércoles, 14 de junio, 2006 I hate when a good song is sung by a terrible voice. For example, Rihanna's "Unfaithful." The lyrics and music are decent, but she sounds like:
(a) a bleating, tone-deaf lamb that is slowly dying from a slashed throat;
(b) a desperate, begging wino (and not the hilarious, Barney Gumble-like kind, or even like the pathetic, exonerated Abel Koontz);
(c) my caterwauling clarinet playing;
(d) a pregnant cow (which kinda ties in with c)
I stick around for a minute or so for the lyrics, but usually I can't take much more than that and I have to switch the radio station, lest I go deaf. Every time I hear the song I think, "Good Lord, this song would be 2x better if I sang it, and 1,000,000x better if someone talented did." I'm kidding about the first part, by the way. Probably only 0.25x.
Was NASA too busy to brush up her vocals or something? Even Paris Hilton's "Stars are Blind" is better. I mean, holy crap. Paris Hilton.

22:34 Comment! (0) | Recommend! | Categories: site [t], money [t] domingo, 28 de mayo, 2006 I was on the bus yesterday afternoon complaining to my friend about the impending Brangina baby, that I hope she frickin' gives birth soon because I'm sick of all the stupid news. Then she goes and gives birth on the same day. Derr. *"Years ago, CBS had a popular little series called GILLIGAN'S ISLAND.
"There is, however, a dark secret about this "comedy" you may never have realized.
"The island is a direct representation of hell. Nobody on the island wants to be there, yet none are able to leave.
"Each one of the characters represents one of the 7 deadly sins:
"Ginger represents LUST - she wears skimpy outfits, is obsessed with her looks, and is a borderline nymphomaniac.
"Mary Ann represents ENVY - she is jealous of Ginger's beauty.
"The Professor represents PRIDE - he is an annoying know-it-all.
"Mr. Howell represents GREED - no explanation needed.
"Mrs. Howell represents SLOTH - she has never lifted a finger to help on any of their escape plans.
"The Skipper represents two sins: GLUTTONY - again, no explanation needed and ANGER - he violently hits Gilligan on each show.
"This leaves Gilligan.
"Gilligan is the person who keeps them there. He prevents them from leaving by foiling all of their escape plots.
"Also, it is HIS island. Therefore, Gilligan is SATAN.
"Crazy?
"He does wear red in every episode..."
