mina was the runt, so she had a tougher time from the start. if i could do something different, i would have given her formula like we had planned, but the vet said that it's likely these two would have died anyway. ;^; joe was bigger than mina, but they were both smaller than the rest, so methinks it was just sibling rivalry gone amok. they didn't have any wounds or any discharge to suggest infection, so it's likely they just didn't get enough nutrition.
tbh saying that makes me feel worse. we bought the bottle and the formula, too.... ;^;

@sleepyd: hm, i'm kinda curious as to what i am or what it's about. can you provide a wiki link or a link to a quiz or something? :\

as nice as posting is, something terrible happened earlier. we came in from burying pud'n and found out that two more of the kittens died. ;^;
mina and joe will be joining their brother soon...
aah, I'm sorry to hear that. Such is life, I guess.

As for MBTI tests, it's hard to find a good one, really. I found mine out through the crappier tests (which didn't get it right a few times) and some research on my own. Looking online, it seems most MBTI people recommend mypersonality.info tests but that requires (free) registration, so I haven't looked at it. But maybe you can give it a shot if you like. (Or try the less accurate ones floating around the netz)

So the release of Project Diva F for the PSVita is getting really close (meaning I'm getting really excited about it) but now I'm going to have a little problem.
I just got what the shipping costs are looking like and its going to be between 2040 and 2400 Yen for the game to be shipped to the states, now take the total cost of the game (6060 Yen [13% off]) and add that to shipping.

I'm looking at paying 8120-8460 Yen (102.31-106.60 USD) for a single game and its pre-order bonus right after getting my ATH-M50

Just wondering what you guys have payed ridiculous amounts of money for, I couldn't think of a thread to put this in and I didn't feel like making a new thread~

Uh..... nothing really.  I mean, I paid a thousand for my laptop but it wasn't exactly my money and she's been a good laptop these last four years.

.....I spent $5 on Portal 2 earlier today.

I paid $150 for an invisible Apple III last October :P

@Stew: Nice :3

@stew: kickass. :0

things i've paid a ridiculous amount for: anime goods, mostly plushies. i've been blessed with knowing all the right people, so most of my stuff has been free (either by gifts or it was destined for the trash heap anyway, or in the case of one block of manga, destined for the christian bookstore), but some of the stuff i've paid for.
for example, the most i've paid for a single plushie is $45. (bought a boxed set of 3 for $50 once.) the most i've paid for an anime book was $42. i've dropped $20+ on figurines before paid somewhere in the 20-30 dollar range for a pillow, and almost got a wallscroll for $28 once (it would have been a birthday present from someone, though, and it was sold out by the time we got back to it), and the dollfie orders have spiked in price on occasion.
tbh, though, 'ridiculous' is in the eye of the beholder. i don't regret a single purchase.

as for stuff i've spent a ridiculously LOW amount for, that'd be all the free stuff. i've also plenty of books on discount from their original price, got a pinup poster for 50¢, and gotten other anime items for cheap or free. (some of them, such as my Vincent plushie, are quite expensive and/or rare, so i'm really lucky. -w- )

@Stew: $5 for Portal 2?! Good find. : o

@Kari, re: Computer names: IDK yet. I'm thinking of naming her Xue (she is a Taiwanese computer after all), but I'm not sure if anyone will be able to properly pronounce that. (I'm not even sure I can.) u.u

@Genpop: I have to try to get on a proper sleep schedule, I passed out last night at like 2am, woke up at like 4am, and then went to sleep again and woke up at noon. :|

Ah. So that's why you disappeared mid conversation ^_^;;

You pulled a Stew! xD

Dear OSC,

                Have you read your daily SICP today?



Had to order the book for my AP: CS class this year and my college CS class when I'm a freshmen, lucky for me my dad was willing to pay for it~

@Kriz: thanks for informing about ASMR! This definitely seems to be the thing happening with me while listening to music. (or someone touching my neck). Although I'm probably just a type B since I definitely need an external stimulus to trigger it.
Also for me the tingles rarely start at the top of my head but rather shoot directly down my spine (mostly in the neck area, I seem to be especially sensitive there). It's a really pleasant feeling, like all my nerves are on fire... sometimes it gets really intense which in turn causes me to involuntarily twitch and shiver, also goosebumps everywhere.
Up to now I thought that this was the very definition of the term "eargasm" but obviously there seem to be loads of different triggers for other people. :)

btw, I'm currently converting all the photos from my trip from CR2 to JPEG, I'll upload some tomorrow!

I can ASMR at will. Anywhere. I'm cooler than you.

I've spent A LOT on otaku goods in recent years.
I think the biggest single purchase was this figure here. I think just under $200, like $175 or something.
