Lucy’s Tea Adventure!

Featured, In Which, Public 3 Responses »

Ok, so I claim to be British. Yet I have not sampled a wide variety of teas!

In fact… this is the limitation of my tea drinking:

  • Generic tea with milk + sugar
  • Generic tea, with honey

Yes.

That’s it.

Seriously.

I FAIL at being British!

So, and I’m not convinced this will actually work particularly well (especially given that I have no idea how many teas are easily accessible), I aim to sample at least… 20 different teas by the end of the year. That’s about one a week I have no idea how well this is going to work, but we’ll see what happens.

I’ll figure out the rules later, I guess.

For now, any hints, tips or suggestions would be great!

I made bacon cookies today! I also made a mess of the kitchen! The latter is gone, the former on their way out.

Here is the recipe for it, if you are interested.

This may or may not work. Let’s find out…

EDIT:

That’ll be a resounding Yes! Expect many public posts to be tweeted from now on :)

Ever wondered what Stephen Fry narrating RnB would sound like?

No. Me neither.

But darkwaterfairy has found out:

On a cool, clear night (typical to Southern California) Warren G travels through his neighborhood, searching for women with whom he might initiate sexual intercourse. He has chosen to engage in this pursuit alone.[6]

Nate Dogg, having just arrived in the east side of Long Beach, seeks Warren. On his way to find Warren, Nate passes a car full of women who are excited to see him. Regardless, he insists to the women that there is no cause for excitement.

Warren makes a left turn at 21st Street and Lewis Ave, in the East Hill/Salt Lake neighborhood[7], where he sees a group of young men enjoying a game of dice together. He parks his car and greets them. He is excited to find people to play with, but to his chagrin, he discovers they intend to relieve him of his material possessions. Once the hopeful robbers reveal their firearms, Warren realizes he is in a less than favorable predicament.

Meanwhile, Nate passes the women, as they are low on his list of priorities. His primary concern is locating Warren. After curtly casting away the strumpets (whose interest in Nate was such that they crashed their automobile), he serendipitously stumbles upon his friend, Warren G, being held up by the young miscreants.

Warren, unaware that Nate is surreptitiously observing the scene unfold, is in disbelief that he is being robbed. The perpetrators have taken jewelry and a Rolex Watch from Warren, who is so incredulous that he asks what else the robbers intend to steal. This is most likely a rhetorical question.

Observing these unfortunate proceedings, Nate realizes that he may have to use his firearm to deliver his friend from harm.

The tension crescendos as the robbers point their guns to Warren’s head. Warren senses the gravity of his situation. He cannot believe the events unfolding could happen in his own neighborhood. As he imagines himself making a fantastical escape, he catches a glimpse of his friend, Nate.

Nate has seventeen cartridges (sixteen residing in the pistol’s magazine, with a solitary round placed in the chamber and ready to be fired) to expend on the group of robbers. Afterward, he generously shares the credit for neutralizing the situation with Warren, though it is clear that Nate did all of the difficult work. Putting congratulations aside, Nate quickly reminds himself that he has committed multiple homicides to save Warren before letting his friend know that there are females nearby if he wishes to fornicate with them.

Warren recalls that it was the promise of copulation that coaxed him away from his previous activities, and is thankful that Nate knows a way to satisfy these urges. Nate quickly finds the women who earlier crashed their car on Nate’s account. He remarks to one that he is fond of her physical appeal. The woman, impressed by Nate’s singing ability, asks that he and Warren allow her and her friends to share transportation. Soon, both friends are driving with automobiles full of women to the East Side Motel, presumably to consummate their flirtation in an orgy!

The third verse is more expository, with Warren and Nate explaining their G Funk musical style. Warren displays his bravado by daring anyone to approach the style. There follows a brief discussion of the genre’s musicological features, with special care taken to point out that in said milieu the rhythm is not in fact the rhythm, as one might assume, but actually the bass. Similarly the bass serves a purpose closer to that which the treble would in more traditional musical forms. Nate displays his bravado by claiming that individuals with equivalent knowledge could not even attempt to approach his level of lyrical mastery. Nate goes on to note that if any third party smokes as he does, they would find themselves in a state ofintoxication almost daily (from Nate’s other works, it can be inferred that the substance referenced is marijuana[8]). Nate concludes his delineation of the night by issuing a threat to “busters,” suggesting that he and Warren will further “regulate” any potential incidents in the future (presumably by engaging their antagonists with small arms fire).

  • Twitter Psychological Profile of @strawberyutopia: http://TweetPsych.com?q=strawberyutopia from @danzarrella #
  • That's it! I give up! That was the last try. I cannot replace my iPhone screen. :( #
  • My webhost has moved my home directory to home2, meaning anything which used absolute paths no longer works. #
  • I asked them to create a symlink to my home directory in /home/ . Instead, they copied and pasted, without giving me access. #
  • So now I'm left with some of my stuff no longer working (don't know what) and I'm taking up twice the disk space! #
  • And they had the audacity to tell me I'm over my disk quota, and asked if they could delete one of my backup files to get back my space! #
  • My webhost is either about to fix the problems caused by their incompetence… or they're about to delete all my files. #
  • The next twist in the tale of my FAIL webhost: they've changed my password, or otherwise denied me access. #
  • In other words, I am no longer able to download my files in preparation for their inevitable incompetence-fuelled deletion of them. #
  • For the warning of others, my webhost is AFMU: http://afmu.com/ . I will be leaving them as soon as I have the chance. Don't use them. Ever. #
  • My brother has been trying to kill an Adamantoise for the past 20 minutes with little success so far. #
  • @ChrisSinjo That's the plan… just as soon as they give me access to my account again. >_< in reply to ChrisSinjo #
  • 25 minutes later, and the Adamantoise kills him. #
  • It's been 4 days now and so far my webhost has nearly repaired the damage they have done. Maybe then they can fix the initial issue? #
  • @bma I seriously hope so too, but I doubt it. in reply to bma #
  • WTF?! My support ticket is now 'on hold'! And they closed my other ticket about not being able to log in without doing anything! #
  • @bma My keyboard does not have an em-dash key, so most of the time I don't care. My word processor fixes it for me when I actually need it. in reply to bma #
  • @bma —_— in reply to bma #
  • hmm. there need to be more emoticons that make use of the em-dash… #
  • I FINALLY have access to my account again. Great. I'm now back to where I was on Monday. Any chance of them actually fixing the problem now? #
  • How am I up and awake?! #
  • @epeternally :D in reply to epeternally #
  • Why does it take so damn long to kill a space pirate, even when you shoot them 100 times in the face?! #
