Professed my feelings for someone who later tonight rejected me. This is the most I've ever cared for a girl. I feel really, really shitty.  Sorry to hear about. At least you still have Zoidberg. Hooray for me! Hooray for Zoidberg!

However, when you'll find someone who cares as much as you do in the future, you'll realize that it was worth going through all that

I just switched to a 11" MacBook Air as my main and only computer (actually I have a 2010 mac mini acting as a media center and a work provided 15" 2006 Macbook pro but I don't use them nearly as much).
1.4 GHz Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM 64 GB SSD nVidia GeForce 320M
For me, the low specs are completely worth the extreme mobility, good battery life and tiny power consumption (I think it's important to think of power consumption when it comes to our tech gizmos- electricity isn't free, financially or ecologically).
Plus, everything I do on it runs great (mostly web browsing, spotify, code, writing in latex), so why have higher specs?
I also have a 21" Full HD Dell monitor on which I hook it when I want large screen space at home.

Making a video about one of my old game projects. I've been recording footage of some of my very early games, circa 2004. So much nostalgia, but I'm also very proud of what I achieved back then!  If I could, I'd go back in time, give myself a hi-five, then ask myself for advice. Ali 2004 is clearly way cooler than Ali 2011. I believe this also happened to this guy named Benjamin Button

I am extremely happy right now.
In about three days of lots of hard thinking and countless times of trial and error, it seems I have been able to build an almost perfect 2D collision engine, that handles single vertices, lines, triangles and any convex polygons after that, as well as perfect circles with just a position and a radius, and that means not only circle to circle, but also circle to any of the other.
The only thing missing now would be to discover collisions occurring between frames. If I get that to work, I'm pretty confident that I have a perfect collision engine, and the only thing remaining would be taking out the important parts of my spaghetti test files and put them under a neat OOP layer.

I drink my coffee plain and pure. Any sugar, cream, or anything else inside is for sissies who can't handle their manhood (or womanhood for that matter). Seriously, I don't get the obsession in the US with having a 24 oz. cup of coffee that has more crap than coffee in it. If it's calories that you want, just get a freaking smoothie.  Damn straight.

The PSP is the most underrated game system. Seriously.
Now it is super cheap, you can find most of the games for under $20 (and a lot of them for under $10), you can play a bunch of PS1 oldies, etc. And that's without jailbreaking. Also, if you have PS3, the remote play functionality is pretty neat.
I used to love my DS, but for the past 6 months or so, the PSP has gotten much more use (Wipeout in particular). A lot of hidden gems, and better playability IMO (thanks to the larger screen + controls- the DS lite hurts my big man hands).
Last incentive- Patapon 3 is released like today.

I feed them to my newer pets. I had a pet ant, then a pet fish, then a pet cat, then a pet dog. I wonder what the next one will be.
What will be my next pet?

Racist and remarkably fascist.
EDIT: Which kind of set the tone for a lot of fantasy stuff thereafter. What were we talking about again?
Racist and fascist? Care to elaborate on that for a second?

I based all my factual statements on the words and actions of Jesus.
So how do you know what Jesus said and did? because it is right there on the goddamn page. All hail to the king aragorn. It's all true. As far as I'm concerned, the Lord of the Rings is more inspirational and has advocates better morales and values than the Bible.

I did long distance for about a year.
Ah, I am not alone. I tried it, and still, I am single. At least TigSource won't leave me. I love you guys! Yeah, didn't work out for me either. But it was more because of who it was with rather than the fact that it was distance.
