Vampiaaargh…

A quizzie, just for fun.

Your result for Which Vampire the Masquerade Clan Are You?

The Lunatics {Malkavian}

-1 Assamite, 8 Brujah, 2 Gangrel, 26 Malkavian, 5 Nosferatu, 0 Toreador, -2 Tremere, -1 Ventrue, 4 Lasombra, 2 Tzimisce, 2 Setites, 0 Giovanni and 11 Ravnos!

The Malkavians are mad they say. The violence of being turned from humans into monsters has scarred them irreperably so that every one is hopelessly insane. Some Malkavians see their madness as a gift and are completely aware of it and it’s uses. Most, however, are victims of their violent mood swings, homicidal urges or complete memory loss. They tend to dwell in a world between reality and fantasy, fiddling with the devil and exposing their naughty parts to God. They are the most feared and reviled of all vampires due to their unpredictable natures.

For you to be a Malkavian means that your entire reality probably resembles tea with Alice and you’re the mad hatter…or possibly the door mouse. It’s hard to keep your attention at best and it’s hard to keep your victims blood off your nice clean trenchcoat at worst. It’s not that mommy didn’t hug you, it’s not a chemical imbalance, you’re just crazy. This doesn’t mean, however that you can’t mix your ridalin, prozac and antipsychotics. Actually you should cuz it gets pretty interesting….oh wait, you’re undead. You see and remember what others ignore and have forgotten. You are truly enlightened, now give me back my ”my little pony” you sick freak!

…and nothing else has changed.

To take the P out of present

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

This morning while I was preparing to go to work my dad asked me what I want for my birthday. First I answered ‘nothing’. I didn’t say that because there’s nothing I’d like to have these days, it was because to prevent the obvious.

Then I dared to hope. So I said ‘Actually there is something… you see, I’m playing that game with my friends on most weekends, and there’s a box of figures I’d like to get somehow…’
‘How much does it cost?’
‘Around 17.000Ft.’

And then it happened. I saw on his eyes that a Speech is coming. He started ‘Well, you see…’ and I immediately said ‘It’s okay, forget it.’, but he went on about how he would love to give me something that’s useful. He still don’t seem to acknowledge that he DOESN’T know a thing about me, and that my view on which things are useful are very different. He’s easy to spend money on a fishing rod, because it’s his hobby, but he’s still utterly convinced that if I sit at my computer playing games or chatting my friends, I will die at the age of 30 because of that. Now just how stupid is that?!

And he somehow got to the point of ‘I’ll buy that to you if you buy…’ and that was the point where I almost threw up. He’ll buy me a present IF I… but then it’s not a present. It’s a pay for a job, or a doggy snack for being a good puppy, or just blackmailing. Anything, but a present.

Now I don’t know if I even want a happy birthday greeting from him at all.

Google Chrome

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Google has come up with another idea: now they’ve made a web browser. Of course I had to download and try the beta… and I have to confess: I LOVE IT.

Most of the world use either IE or Firefox, and the rest are settled with opera, safari, mozilla, or other browsers which are more or less just a skinned version of these ones. Why a new browser, one might ask… well, the answer is told in a nifty comic which you can read here.

Though I can’t see behind the interface, I can say what they told about the look and the speed is true. It won’t speed up your internet connection, nor the bandwidth of the server you’re visiting, but still, just to get from the open page of my blog here where I write this post took about 1/3 the time it usually takes.

I can’t wait to see this browser on linux and mac… (Have I mentioned I want to buy an iMac? …not that I have the money for it, but as soon as I can afford one, I’ll totally get one…)

Schooltime

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Schooltime has officially started in Hungary. The streets of Esztergom is full with girls age of 12-16 looking and dressing up like being 18-22 years old… Whenever I would turn after a pretty girl, I have to consider if she’s old enough to have an ID. It’s really confusing.

There’s a saying, “Women younger than 20 try everything to look like they’re 20 years old. So do older women.” I just don’t get it. Well, I’ll never get women, but that’s not the point here. I personally don’t get the point of girls wearing too much make-up, thus covering the beauty of their own faces. Oh well, fashion never was my thing.
