If only all Russian, vodka-drinking, sex-trafficking mobsters were as bamf as this.

THE WALRUS. LOL. All are caps made by me from The Boat that Rocked (not Pirate Radio because Boat had some extra scenes!). Be on the look out for Tom Sturridge, (more) Bill Nighy, Tom Brooke, Nick Frost, Katherine Parkinson, Chris O'Dowd, (more) Jack Davenport, Kenneth Branagh, and Ike Hamilton, Yeah, that's a list, I know!

Dear flist.

I have just done my practise oral exam and needless to say I am 160% more freaked out than I was before. I WISH I COULD HAVE TOLD MY BOSS THAT HE IS NOT ALLOWED TO NITPICK MY GRAMMAR WHEN HE USES CF INCORRECTLY E.G. MY LAST POST.


Anyway, if there is anyone who would like to post me smutty drabbles involving our characters I would be much obliged.


if you're too weirded out to put them here, you can filter a post and link me ♥ I swear to god I will appreciate the hell out of your descent into the dark nether regions of rp

Pet peeve of today: scientists who can't use words correctly but are allowed to publish anyway.

A brief guide to penultimate, cf., ca., inflammable, and ambivalent


PENULTIMATE

pene- before or almost
ultimate the last of something

what penultimate means. next to last.

what penultimate does NOT mean. some step further than ultimate. that would make the word ultimate pointless.


CF.

what it is. from Latin confer, meaning to compare or consult. It is intended to provide a reference to some other work against which one might compare the current work -- that is, it is meant to be used to indicate a source with different arguments, data, or conclusions.

what it isn't. A substitute for "see" in the "see Figure 1" sense. You do not say cf. Figure 1. EVER.


CA.

what it is. from Latin circa, meaning 'around.' It is used to refer to dates.

what is isn't. a go-to substitute for 'approximately,' particularly in the 'approximately 100nm thick' sense.


INFLAMMABLE

in into
flammable lol obviously

what inflammable means. combustible, flammable, settable on fireable

what inflammable does NOT mean. nonflammable. come on guys you do this for a living.


this is not a science mistake but it bugs me anyway so I'm throwing it in.

AMBIVALENT

ambi both
valence the capacity of a person to react with another in a special way

what ambivalent means. uncertainty, caused by having to make a choice or by conflicting/opposite emotions.

what ambivalent does NOT mean. indifferent, apathetic. STOP. USING. IT. LIKE. THIS.

....So. A girl I've been friends with online for a decade now? She just met my Bellatrix pb in person. I'm torn between insanely jealous, incredibly impressed, and a teensy bit weirded out.

sherlock: shroedy is like "... i can calculate the exact trajectory needed to get a fwooper in beery's office from the quidditch pitch"
sherlock: *RUBS HANDS EXCITEDLY*
theblev: lmaoooo i want a beery to make his life hell in a handbasket
theblev: Kettles says "...okay cool. I'll get the Fwooper, and you do whatever you just said"
sherlock: LOL

I may or may not have redone her icons, and then added some 300 to them. So now there's 461 Jewel Staite icons. >.>

Comment below and I will tell you which of your characters that I've played against are my favorites and why I love them. Then repost this in your own journal.

disclaimer: when I am taking my breaks from oral freak-outage

Work has eaten me. I still have to work on bios for Unchosen and Darwinisms, as well as Unchosen itself. But I'm not sure if I should wait until CJ is online again or not since she is 1/3 of the mod team. I probably should. And I feel horrible I wasn't online to be active in DMR, and left people hanging even. Maybe when it comes out of hiatus, I can try to be more active. Hopefully everything will be much more sane and I'll be able to do more besides work and sleep.

I'm feeling very useless right now, basically. And I want to rp something and really, I should just try to focus creativity into productivity. Or something.
