Perhaps the server CPU was overheating, and it thought the spell would help.

I'm watching all of them expecting a giant foot to squish everything in the frame.

No I haven't!

Not only can I cut a watermelon and sharpen a pencil, but I can use a sharpened pencil to mark a watermelon so I cut it precisely! Hire me, Studio Ghibli!

Every family is different I guess. But it's certainly more common for the mom and baby to be closer. I mean, besides the breast feeding aspect of it, most guys are just kind of out of their element around babies (especially the first one). In the case of my sons (I have 3), they were closer to their mom as babies and…

Track: Numbers On The Boards | Artist: Pusha T | Album: My Name Is My Name

About the same as it does inside.

Speaking of copyright violations: hello there, illegal scanlation aggregate website.

"Barrier" is a bit of a loaded word to use to describe what happened in my case. My son's focus shifted from me to his mother and back again. It's cyclical, and he still does it. He bonded with her first, then with me at about five months old. It was sudden and unexpected and broke my wife's heart. She told me that it…

As a mom, I can only tell you that it *IS* different for Mom and baby. We start our bonding with them before we even know they exist, and for the first year or so, baby and mom are still kind of one person. It's not so much of a barrier between mom and baby and dad, as a biological bond between mom and baby. Being…

Huh, guess my invitation got lost in the mail.

Only if there's a way to counteract it. (e.g., Zelda-style rolls, shields, feather fall, Portal 2's blue gel and long fall boots, etc.)

How do you practice something like this!? I guess you don't and just hope you don't die.

Why spotlight terrible artwork?

Dropped my NexusS on the pavement, perfectly face down. Back flies off, battery out, cracked screen. Put it back together, and it wouldn't turn on. Great. It's dead. In a giant pathetic hissy fit, I threw it back down onto the pavement, with great violence.
Wait a sec, when the battery pops out, you gotta power it up…

Buying already obsolete tech from eBay without properly researching it first. I still have two (both bids on two different auctions won, d'oh)unopened ATI Radeon TV PCI cards that I have nothing to put in and no need for what with the internet and AT&T U-Verse.

Circa 1992 Monitor wouldn't work (this was 1996). Checked cables. Had power light. Called tech support. They turned brightness knob. Monitor fixed.

I had the actual opposite linguistic experience. I speak French so I was listening and without paying attention to the subtitles and did an auditory double-take and was like "What that what? Did I stop understanding French? Wait. This is no longer French. It sounds like crazy German. OH. DUTCH!" But my brain still…

This is kind of sad to hear from Miyazaki himself.... but I remember reading somewhere that he was the "Glass is half empty" kind of person if that makes any sense. So this might just be one of those moments but I will miss new Ghibli films.
