Re: 3D and "it hurts my eyes":

I have a friend who is the biggest buzzkill to go to a movie with for that reason; not only will she refuse to see anything in 3D (even something like Avatar), but she also insists on sitting in the very back row. And she talks through the whole thing.

But she keeps insisting on going to movies with me. And I'm running out of excuses...

Say you have to take care of your grandmother every night of week for the next six months.

Well say you got a new boyfriend and you will be spending every night with him for the next six months or so.

And if she says let's see the matinee, there's a Mad Men marathon on.

I'm not a huge fan of streaming, I'm old fashioned, but I do watch the occasional programme on iPlayer.

I used Netflix for 2 months last Summer. First month free my ass. They charged me for July and August. I don't want them charging me during school time when I don't use it much so I cancelled my membership.

They still send me emails begging me to come back. Nope.

I mean, with Mad Men, I have every episode through season four on my computer, so I could just watch it on there, but since I have Netflix anyway (because I use it to watch other shows) I decided to watch it on there, the quality is (usually) better (there was one odd episode where the dialogue was out of sync).

I also rewatched FMA on there, although they only have it dubbed. They don't have Brotherhood iirc, so I'm watching it subbed on Hulu (which I mostly prefer since I really don't like Vic Mignogna's voice. It's a pretty good dub otherwise, but when the voice that annoys you is that of the protagonist, that's kind of a problem).

I find it annoying when people play with the 3D off. It's like a waste of the 3D.

I ... what?

I often have it off just because I don't honestly give a fuck about it. I bought the 3DS for games, not some gimmick.

This isn't exactly what I was referring to, but it's not some "gimmick". It makes the game's experience better.

Nope, it was totally unnecessary with on that layton game :d. I played the whole time without 3d because most of the time and that is for all the 3d games I had up to now.
And most of the time I play when I am in a weird angle so that it is a giant blur so :/.

It's actually neccesary in some points of super mario 3D land. And mario kart 7 and Kid Icarus Uprising have just wonderful 3D.

I do play super monkey ball 3D with the 3D off though, because it's actually harder to play for me with 3D on. Not sure why exactly.

I admit, that it makes no difference in some games, but I still keep it on in New Super Mario Bros. 2 for some reason. My eyes feel weird with it off.

I don't really have that many 3d games yet, but even with pilotwings ??? I switched it off because it got annoying to keep it at a certain angle when I was playing in bed.

Well it probably adds something for some games but I haven't played those yet.

I think I should take out my bass today and learn some bass lines, or just fuck around on it.

I was just listening to The Police (yay bassist lead singers!) and I really want to learn "Roxanne." Also, "Badge" and "White Room" by Cream. And some Talking Heads bass lines.

This is probably really boring to anyone who isn't a musician, lol.

I'm also trying to decide if I should do laundry. It's long overdue. I'm just so lazy!

It's also cold as a witch's tit outside, and slushy and gross. And the pants I'd have to wear to go there are the ones that are in desperate need of a wash (I was downtown yesterday for my therapist appointment and the Back Bay was like a freaking marsh, so many deep puddles).

I am so ready for spring, you have no idea. Bring on thunderstorms, hurricanes, I don't give a damn, just...no more snow!
