This thing seems pretty cool:

And I retook some OKcupid tests. My sexual purity score has dropped from 91% to 82% after just one month or so of dating Kit. Who knew wanton depravity could be so fun? |

Wow. I just had the mental image of Sammie, Ian, Kit and I walking around Frederick, drunk off our asses shouting "FOR THE HORDE!!" at random times / at random people.
And if I have anything to say about it, it will be made prophecy. |

Well, Kit and I are dating now. Tons of fun and quite the seductress, she is. I'm also really glad her and Sammie get along so well.
Physics... could be doing better. My job... may change soon.
And I can't stop thing about something, but only Kit could know for sure :-p |

So I met a new girl on OKcupid. She lives only a couple miles up the road, too, which is nice.
I'm meeting her and her parents for the first time in, oh, 3.5 hours. I'm nervous, giddy, and my cheeks hurt from smiling so hard.
I feel so ALIVE, man. |

You scored as Materialist. Materialism stresses the essence of fundamental particles. Everything that exists is purely physical matter and there is no special force that holds life together. You believe that anything can be explained by breaking it up into its pieces. i.e. the big picture can be understood by its smaller elements.

![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.1) lilmissstitch tagged me, so here goes:
Once you are tagged you MUST write an entry about 6 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next six people to be tagged and list their names.
- The last dream I had was set in the Plaguelands. In Warcraft.
- Seriously, I spend like 6 hours a day playing WoW. I need to fix my computer, so at least I'll waste my time on a more diverse set of distractions.
- I often emit a "hmmm hmmm" noise, for minutes on end. Sometimes I don't even know I was doing it.
- I speak in random accents at random times, just for the hell of it. They're not particularly convincing.
- I'm the wierdest person I know, and I can't fill this thing out.
- Oh, that's right, because I have like 20 things, but they all fall under the category of "Too much information". Even my pervs have kinks.
I'll tag angelic_trouble, xcelerasian, jaynneboae, buthidaex, geuna, squee7.
I command it! |

How cool would it be to have an MMO in which the game's genre relates to your player class or type?
Example:
I could go into a whole lot more detail, but I think everyone's eyeballs would dry out reading it.
Still, I really like the idea of an MMO that appeals to both the "Get better at it by improving my character" and "Get better at it by improving my own skills" types. |

Warning: This entry is long, and it might be boring.
Do you ever feel like an extra in someone else's play?
Like the more you try to understand yourself, the more you feel like you're just a paper doll with no depth?
Like you're a robot who's desperately trying to fool people into thinking you're a person too?
Like your personality is a cobbled-together amalgamation of everything that got stuck to your brain, that you found interesting enough to absorb?
Is this what it's like to have no soul?
(a tough question to ask when you don't believe in them in the first place)
My livejournal is nothing more than a bunch of factual updates about how I'm doing, in a sea of links to random webpages or quiz results. Should I feel bad if that's really all I feel like I have to offer people?
Should I feel bad that I have to ask other people these questions to begin with?
I really do feel like a robot sometimes - I'll be hanging out with Sammie, and I'll think "say something funny, she'll laugh" and the gears in my head will begin whirring away dutifully, and hopefully my mouth will produce the right sounds. When I'm at my happiest, it feels like there's at least some sort of access panel in the way, keeping me from noticing my internal workings. The funny thing is, the only time I don't feel this way is when I'm wasting my time, alone, feeding some sort of addiction. Most of these addictions have pixels.
I'm trying to think back to a time when this wasn't the case. Ain't happening. Even as a kid, I'd instinctively go do whatever I was interested in most, like a moth to a flame. No thinking, just go towards the fun. Maybe it's human nature. Maybe it's natural nature.
But then why would I write a journal entry like this? Why would I make it public? What do I have to gain from it? To lose? (My robot brain likes to examine everything from that sort of angle)
I've heard people describe sociopaths in this same light - they use and manipulate others for their own gain, but if you ask them personal questions, it's like there's nobody home. They just give you whatever answer will get them the most profit in the long run.
Sometimes I feel like I can't *not* make those sorts of assessments, and once I've made them, it would be pointless to make the opposite decision just to spite myself.
"Just do what you wanted to do, what your heart tells you to do", you might point out. What if my heart, for whatever reason, always spits out the same damn answer as my decide-o-metric 2000? What if it really is just an illusion, and I'm nothing more than a fancy algorithm, one step away from being the guy who cons old ladies out of money because he can?
Here's a more poignant question: Loyalty and trust are assets. Closeness to others is a good feeling. Wouldn't a robot person therefore do everything in their power to make others need and enjoy them - altruism, in a twisted sense - because it maximizes their own robot happiness? (if they have such a thing)
Could these nice robots, these kindly sociopaths be walking around too, yet nobody ever questions them?
A funny thing just happened - a coworker just came up to me, and after a mere 5 minutes of casual conversation about nothing of real importance, all the angst and confliction I was just rambling about seemed to fade away. And my decide-o-matic 2000 seems oddly silent about it. |

Brilliant!
I have got to try that. If you want to hear what it sounds like, listen here. If you hear a high pitched, wavering tone, you can hear it. If it just sounds like an off-balance wheel spinning, you probably can't - that's how a co-worker described it.
Personally, that sound is brutal to me.
In other news, I've been looking for new people to hang out with on OKcupid. There's nothing quite as frustrating as finding someone cute, genuinely interesting, very nearby, and yet they never log on, so you can't talk to them.
And my computer is still not well, but I'm too damn lazy to get around to reformatting just to see if I have to RMA the motherboard. I suppose the BIOS freezing is a bad sign, though. |

Wow, it looks like I went an entire school year without an update - nine whole months.
Not a whole lot has changed, though.
- Still trudging through school with a 2.5.
- Still working for Spacelink, although I'm in the engineering department, and the company is now part of DRS technologies.
- Sammie and I are still pretty inseparable, but we're not technically a couple anymore.
- My computer is better, faster, stronger.
- I am not.
- The capital of Portugal is still Lisbon.
- Warcraft is a hell of a drug.
- I'm hungry.
So there goes my streak of not updating. Expect your friends pages to be once again filled with poorly-made internet quizzes. |

So I about a week ago I bought me a pair of tickets to Warped Tour. I had everything planned out, and then I check and what do you know, the tickets are for the Warped tour in Virginia Beach. They won't give me an exchange. I had to buy another set of tickets and pay another set of bullshit "convenience" charges that weren't very convenient to begin with.
So, free warped tour tickets in Virginia Beach on the 9th for whoever wants them. |

It's been 2 months since my last update. Among the things that have happened:
- I got 2 speeding tickets in 2 weeks. 47/25, 67/50. I got the 47/25 reduced to 44/25 in court, and I get to keep my license, at least. I have since hung up my lead shoes.
- I met a fantabulous girl named Sammie (lilmissstitch) off of OKcupid (her username is VideoGamesAndSW, if you care to look). She lives in a faraway land called West Virginia, but it's really not that bad of a drive.
- I have become hopelessly addicted to Battlefield 2, just like I knew I would. And it is sooo good . Lance Corporal Rabbid_Squirrel, reporting for duty.
I got tagged by buthidaex, so here goes:
List ten fictional characters you would have sex with, and then tag five friends.
I created an actual list, but I think he was just screwing around. Oh well, here it is:
1) Mary, from There's Something About Mary.
2) Leela, from Futurama.
3) Marion from Requiem for a dream, (at the beginning of the movie, or better yet, minus the heroin addiction).
4) Farah, from Prince of Persia.
5) Alyx Vance, from Half Life 2.
6) Leeloo, from The Fifth Element.
7) Jasmine, from Aladdin.
8) Inuyasha, from Inuyasha.
9) Millie, from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Very kinky.
10) Amy, from Sonic Adventure.
I tag lilmissstitch, angelic_trouble, iliveinurcouch, xcelerasian, and angelspawn. |

JoeyT10000: observe:
JoeyT10000: Monkeys: Nature's banana holders.
JoeyT10000: Tonight we will be talking about monkeys, and their larger and more sinister cousins, the apes.
JoeyT10000: (duh duh duh duhhhdramaticsoundddd)
JoeyT10000: Ask your loved ones the following: Do you like bananas? If so, you may be a monkey. Cease all poo-flinging activities, and contact a physician immediately.
JoeyT10000: Always remember to handle monkeys with care - some monkeys can be made of glass. This one is made of cheese.
JoeyT10000: Do not feed your glass monkeys bananas - this will only infuriate them.
JoeyT10000: Do not taunt your cheese monkeys, either
JoeyT10000: that's just mean
JoeyT10000: Finally, always make sure your monkeys are in the full upright position before evolving them into people.
JoeyT10000: Goodnight, you crazy planet of the apes
...
JoeyT10000: I totally need to make "taunting your cheese monkeys" a euphemism. |
