You have to have waterproof technology if you plan on taking them to a fishing trip though. Watches are pretty common but I don't know if keyboards can take them. After all, my old keyboard broke after some Sprite got into it ;;

I was a sad child, indeed.

But this is now, and you're not a child any more. :D

Everyone's addicted at one point. It's hopefully just a phase.

Yes, a phase that's been going for.. nearly 3 years now. And probably more soon. :(

Anything is possible, but I don't think it's probable, especially if you're a common user.

Spinor July 10th, 2010 1:03 AM

You can't get off the internet because it's always full of crazy **** for you to witness XD

For example, the deep steaming pile of crap some admin from Pokebeach could be in for posting the Zoroark theater leaks but that is another section here.

So... no I won't be leaving too soon. How was you all nights? Mine has sure been mighty, I think I'll pull it off all-night.

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 1:12 AM

I'd like to say i'd be able to leave the internet and not return to it. But i'd be lying. I'd end up going crazy with boredom after a few days (If that). Sad but true.

My night was.. uneventful. I tried to sleep from a reasonable time, but failed and ended up waking up at 3.30am. So I sat and watched episodes of South Park online. Fun times.

Guillermo July 10th, 2010 1:25 AM

I'm not addicted to the internet, and I could leave, but I'd just get too bored without it. If I had to leave for school or something I'd be able to do that.

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 1:31 AM

Oh yeah, i'd probably be able to leave under those circumstances because i'd have more important things to focus on.

But I literally do nothing outside of work, so if I left atm i'd just end up bored. lol social life failz

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 4:03 AM

Dead thread is dead, and I hate Pirate's Cove..

Anyone here?

Spinor July 10th, 2010 4:13 AM

GET THE DCC DEFIBRILLATOR!

CLEAR!... The new Topic is, does anyone have any pets?

I have 2 cute little chihuahuas. They bite.

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 4:14 AM

I have one little Cockatiel. He's crazy, I have him for a year and he doesn't even have a name. Not to mention I didn't take him to the vet for a year. Oh and my cockatiel bits everyone, except me.

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 4:24 AM

I have a dog. He's a westy :3

I've had a fair few pets over the years, my current dog is the only one we have atm though. Doubt we'll get any more.

Ninja Caterpie July 10th, 2010 4:25 AM

The internet's like that one game which you just lost. The only way to win is to not play.

and i have like 4 fish i don't care about. ;-;

Whatever you do, don't leave, Will. ;__;

And you, Limey. D:

Aww, I'd never leave you, Derkles. <3

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 5:08 AM

I'm not going anywhere, not for the foreseeable future anyway.

That 8 month period without internet last year killed me, i'd rather not go through that again.

While I was 12 I had like 4 months without internet at all and I yelled at my parents every moment for not having internet. It was sad =[

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 5:12 AM

lolz yelling at/arguing with my parents was part of the reason I didn't have internet in the first place.

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 5:14 AM

I still remember my father shutting down the PC so I won't chat too much. I outsmarted the butt though, and just pulled a switch and whoo magic.

Also yay for Absol <3

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 5:19 AM

Desktop > Laptop
Though that might be just me though. Perhaps I'm too used to my 32' screen.

So can't wait for the new laptop I'm going to get. >>; I'll finally have my own computer that I can use when I want without my mother complaining and stuff.

That's what my parents used to do, when the router was downstairs. Now I have my own internet with my own router and everything is awesome ^^

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 5:30 AM

How old are you going to be?

Limey-chan July 10th, 2010 5:30 AM

Freedom is a wonderful thing, Derky ^^

I can't wait to move out and get my own place tbh, but there's a looooong way to go before that happens.

Ninja Caterpie July 10th, 2010 5:31 AM

my dad's threatening to cut my internet if I do badly in my yearly report next semester.

;-;

Although, this is like the third second-chance he's given me... ;-;

Agreed.

Hello, my fellow members. I would like to announce one particular event that will stand up above the rest now.

10,000 Posts

I would like to thank everyone in the DCC for contributing to my awesome postcount and stuff.
I would also like to thank Chibi-chan for the wonderful awesome CSS and stuff as it's perfect for the celebration of my 10,000th post. Because I'm nice, I would also like to thank Luck for posting in the DCC so she can help me out with my goal of obtaining 10,000 posts, even though she's part of the "DCC people" that I mentioned too. I would also like to thank Will(Guillermo) for just being the sexy guy he always is. And Matthew for the spontaneous discussion of cheez-its. I will love you all forever. And even if you're not listed here, you are everyone, right? So yeah, you are thanked, and you are loved. :D

My dear fellow DCCers, today marks the day where clear and definite awesomeness has clearly been reached undeniably. Sure, postcount may not even matter to some of you, and it may not even matter that much to me. But turning 10,000 is like reaching a new threshold in PC life, one that is never forgotten. It's like remembering the day you were born(although most of you would've probably forgotten that) and your first birthday(although most of your would've probably forgotten that, too, depending on how good/bad your memory is). Or perhaps when you took your first steps or rode a bicycle for the first time.

My fellow DCCers, this event is no exception.

It is 10:30 PM on the night of July 9th, 2010. I sit here in front of all of you to say how happy I am reaching this glorious and memorable event. Reaching this number has shown me that there is Hope, that Derky has been given a new, far more awesome name that is immune to any kind of trolling from Luck or anyone else whatsoever because I am just that awesome. I remember when I reached postcount #5,000. However, that even won't be as remembered as my 10,000th one that I'm typing up now. This post goes to show that like in Pokemon, if you keep trying, if you never give up, you will accomplish even the most far-fetched goals.

Believe it!

Again, I would like to thank those people, but I would also like to thank my motivation for picking up once more for posting on PC a lot more than I used to. If it wasn't for this sudden motivation to post, I may have never reached this number and type this before you all now. Y'know, for this, I really thank everyone. Thank guys. ♥

This is clearly PC History in the making.









Congratulations!
:D
Now, if I can only get to 4k posts by the end of summer.

KanadeTenshi July 10th, 2010 5:42 AM

Uh-uh.. I learn accountancy in school, aka one of the most basic things in business and it's annoying. Once you do a real accountancy test you won't love business as much I think.
