Fresh off the screen and out of the /Screens folder! The two lady gamer friends I made from a forum for lesbian gamers. Hotness!

Because nobody asked, here’s yet another mega Guild Wars screenshot-heavy post! Non-gamers or non-GW-gamers may completely ignore this. ETA: Also, I can’t stop editing and adding new pics to this post as I find them.
You’ve Got to be Kidding

Now, this is what I call a tasteful April Fools’ joke. Qwantz.com is xkcd, xkcd.com is Questionable Content, questionablecontent.net is Dinosaur Comics (qwantz.com).
Compared to some horrible, tasteless joke…
Shutting down Taiwanese Guild Wars servers? Give me a break.
Wait. It… it’s really just a joke, right? It has to be? Please?
Computer Miscellany and Internet

There’s such a thing called the Project Triangle in project management. Fast, good, cheap — pick any two.
In my computer and Internet life, there’s such a thing as Vickie’s Doomed Computer and Internet Life Triangle. Computer, Internet, time — lucky if you get any. Strongest theory of all, never failed even once.
I originally had a 3-month Summer break, which ended up being a 3-month contract as a temporary clerk. Fortunate or unfortunate; time, gone.
I originally brought my awesomesauce hard disc drive, graphics card and RAM sticks over so I could use them on my Dad’s computer and stay awesome. Little did I guess that my Dad’s motherboard can’t handle any of those. Computer, gone.
We originally had cheap, high-quality, super-speedy, unmetred broadband connection that many people take for granted in Hong Kong. Mum got sick of wires all over the place so Dad bought a wireless router. Online gaming had since become disconnections after disconnections. Internet, gone.
Despite that, I still managed to achieve my short-term goal, planned for the holidays, in Guild Wars.
And ironically, got accepted as a staffer for the Computer Miscellany and Internet category of TheFanlistings.org.
Life sure is… interesting.
The Legendary… Roach?

Zho lost her eye to a Black Moa while saving some pansy named Nehdukah, and had since developed a fear of the bird and all birds in general. Plagued by nightmares for years, she decided to tame the very beast in an attempt to overcome the fear, and ended up bringing up her own Black Moa chick and gradually recovered from the memories of the horrid accident.
I don’t recall any particular incident with any particular insect that caused my rather severe phobia of all and any insects. Now, maybe if I get a beetle for a pet, and maybe a caterpillar, and a grasshopper, and a moth, and a butterfly, and a scorpion, and a spider, and a cockroach, and a bee, and…
You know what? Never mind.
Yes, I like to speak of game NPCs like some real-life friends. </loser>
