This is former community member Pantaro, brother of Walkazo. I have some harrowing news, which I am spreading to everywhere relevant. At 4 PM EDT, Walkazo was in a horriffic traffic accident and didn't make it. Her life, while short, was accomplished. She climbed the ranks to become a...

But red is Republican, right? So it's probably better that it was a neutral brown colour. Fun fact: in Canada, it's reversed, with our right-wingers being blue, and the center/left party being red.

Actually, now that I've seen a photo from the side instead of just a blurry video from the back, it's a female House Finch: overall the same colour as a House Sparrow, but the streaks on the breast and the grey beak reveal its true identity. Glad it was a good rally. As a Canadian, I don't get...

Some official art actually does depict Peach with rather tiny hands (i.e. SPP (File:Princess_Peach_%28Box_Art%29_-_Super_Princess_Peach.png), where she could easily fit her fist into her eye-socket), but looking around the wiki's gallery, most 3D art and other 2D stuff have hand proportions much...

That's actually pretty good: everything from the bottom of the "Peach" text and up looks nice, although the lower half of the pic needs work. Mainly, the dress looks more like pantaloons than a dress parted down the middle: there needs to be more rumpling, although to make your life easier, I'd...

Ooh, so then you got to see the cute lil' sparrow land on his podium in person, right?

"The Skin on My Lemon Country Teeth" - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah I saw it used for an Adventure Time AMV and now I cannot unhear it being sung by Lemongrab...

Depending on the situation, I either... *go back to sleep *get dressed *turn off the alarm, followed by 1 or 2 *run naked into the next room and pick up the bloody phone, followed by 1 or 2 Some days, I do all of the above.

Just wait 'til he starts driving...

Mad Max: Fury Road - Great movie. Unabashedly over-the-top, yet also serious and gritty, and somehow it works perfectly (except a couple tacked-in 3D-pop-out moments, but ah well).

I'd lose the conjoined senses of smell and taste before sight, hearing or touch.

Re: MarioWiki: Saga and MarioWiki: Stories If you don't want multi-posts, I suggest only post actual chapters. The previews are just confusing without context, so there's not much to say about them, and then when the full chapter comes, we already saw a lot of the content, and so, have less...

Man, scary stuff.

"What You Know" - Two Door Cinema Club

Nice selections!

I've only read the first book, and the movie definitely did a great job converting that one: it was really useful seeing what Snow and the others were up to rather than being forced to only follow Katniss, and things like combining her friend with Prim for the pin stuff, and other plot...

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 - Overall, pretty good movie. The first one of the trilogy forced four-parter is still my fave, but the ending twists were good:

Thanks; it's now up-to-date.

Re: Ever miss any years of my life? My friend briefly dated a guy who couldn't remember anything from before he was 13. And not in a normal "my childhood memories are hazy / I only remember a couple low/highlights anymore" way: it's completely gone, as if he didn't exist before his teens.

I'd suggest having all the info in single cells in the format "stat (while steering)". Losing the ability to sort based on the whole steering values is much less of an inconvenience than having side-scrolling or splitting it up into two tables.

I'm only allergic to peanuts, and it's still a pain, but whatever, there's enough tasty non-nut options out there (but I guess it helps that I prefer cheap stuff half the time anyway). Plus, if food makers catered to folks with allergies over the vast majorities of people without the dietary...

Pretty sure it meant the various kinds of Hersheys chocolate bars, like cookies & cream vs. only chocolate vs. chocolate + almonds vs. chocolate + non-almonds, etc. Like how there's various flavours of Kit-Kats and Toblerones (dunno about the other ones, tho). Canadian Smarties are chocolate...

At school, so my computer can actually do a lot of stuff at once without dying. 1 Chrome window with 4 tabs 3 Excel windows (28 tabs in total between them: 9, 9 and 10) 1 Explorer/file tab Today is actually a slow day since I'm just proofreading datafiles instead of graphing them, which...

Your friend reminds me of how I react whenever people try to get me in a picture, lol. qft

If you own both the French and Japanese versions and you find something named in the French version, feel free to upload the corresponding Japanese scan and I'd be happy to pick out the name if it exists.

At work, so two windows open for that (store database and cash register), plus Firefox with 6 tabs.

"Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)" - Rolling Stones Very nice to hear the radio playing a Stones song other than the same 16 or whatever they always seem to use.

I fixed the "sprite refer" mistake, but yep, the British/Canadian "judgement" spelling stays put. In fact, it's actually a Reminder-worthy offence (MarioWiki:Warning_Policy#Level_one_offenses) to change British/Canadian spellings to American (or vice versa). The last, scuttled attempt...

Lol, I have Exo Terra tanks too (for some of my geckos). Your crabs spend even more time hiding out than my snake - she usually gets hungry at least once a week and starts roaming around.

MarioWiki:Naming#English_and_non-English_sources: "English sources generally have priority over non-English sources, with non-English titles only being used when no official English name is available. The region where the game was released first provides the name" Just substitute "manga" for...

When I was on my trip to Africa, we got flooded out at one place, and there were apparently crocs in the water. Alas, no one but the ranch owner saw any.

The first 10 years of grades don't matter at all even if you want to go to university. There should be an emphasis on simply teaching, rather than ruining childhood with homework and pressure to do well on every test - once you're in the workforce, you don't get tests anymore, you just do your...

3 windows/programs, 5 tabs: Firefox - 3 Windows Explorer/folder - 1 Photos - 1 I only ever use one Firefox window and try to limit the number of tabs to 8 or less (usually keeping it to 4 or 5). The computer gets cranky with too many programs running or too many tabs open (tho it depends on...

Plus Stark radioed for him to come in the first place.

Ignore your grandmother - she's dumb to tell you to change. My friends went to different high schools, and then in university we were all in different cities; I don't use social media, but we kept in contact via phone and periodic get-togethers for birthdays and just-because dinners and...

LPs ftw. Of those, I/my parents have Abbey Road and Led Zeppelin IV.

Or they were his adopted/foster kids and then he disowned them once he got himself a natural son. I'd still bet it was his idea originally, even if everyone else went along with it, like with PM:SS and whatnot.

News upd8! Also, I included the links to the Paradox Space preview because it's good, tho it makes me sad that it's not finished and that Paradox Space in general has been on hiatus forever too. Anyway, hopefully that last 35% will get done soon.

"Love The Way You Move" - Slightly Left of Centre

Well, "window" is from Old Norse and thus, predates the French/Latin influence on English; "dog" is Old English and predates the Nordic and Germanic stuff, and the precursor of "wall" seems to date back even further to Proto-Indo-European. In all cases, these are pretty fundamental topics so the...

The borrowing of "bologna" isn't what's confusing, it's the fact that English kept the Italian spelling but then pronounces it differently from both the spelling and the native pronunciation ("bo-lon'ya"). We butcher lots of words, granted (and other languages return the favour), but even then...

I feel like the fact that it was a handheld game compared to console games probably influenced those figures (especially in Japan). Also, you'd think they'd care about worldwide figures too, and according to this post, which has sales figures as of Dec 2014, it didn't outsell the dread SPM...

"I Still Believe (Great Design)" - The Protomen

I pronounce it "soh-liss-it".

Maybe they decided that M&L fills the Mario RPG niche, so they should do something else with Paper Mario, as an "action adventure" game or whatever. idk, it's still stupid - there was totally still a place for a larger-scale RPG on the consoles, rather than just PM:SS with a slightly better...

"Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It" - Stars I love the girl vocal parts; the rest of the song is pretty whatever.

Ouch. Eat breakfasts and drink lots of water is it's a blood pressure thing. I always carry a bottle of water now to stave off episodes if I start feeling bad on the subway or whatever. Sitting down as soon as you feel it coming on also helps avoid total blackout.

If your girlfriend is preventing you from being able to tell when people on the mario wiki are just joking around, you need to have a serious talk with her about humour

^What he said.

Reminds me of a TED talk by the guy who writes Dinosaur Comics lamenting how English forces us to convey irrelevant gender info when retelling stories and whatnot without needing to use awkward "he/she" constructions (he didn't talk about singular "they", tho, but that in itself would raise...
