Coh-fuh-gree-gus sounds retarded. Given, that's mostly how it would be pronounced if the Great Vowel Shift didn't occur in America (the only exception is that the "gus" should be "goos").

I'll continue pronouncing it "Coh-hag-grih-gus" though, because it sounds better. Just like "Chair-rim" sounds better than "Che-rim" and "Ray-kwah-zuh" sounds better than "Ray-quay-zuh".

I thought you'd all be at 1005 or something by this morning.
Way to disappoint.

The latter pronunciation of Rayquaza sounds a lot better.

I noticed that, but I was too lazy to edit it. XD Thanks though. ;D

Frankly guys, I've already forgot how to pronounce it the proper way, so... whatever you say. I'm just saying that now I know how it's supposed to be pronounced, not that I was going to pronounce it that way. but now i'm sooo tempted to do so out of spite.

Wouldn't that technically still be right, but just mean something else? Since "poco" is both nounal and adjectival, wouldn't it be analogous to how English uses adjectives in the substantive? "I speak a little of Spanish" vs. "I speak little of Spanish."

You're the Spaniard, though.

It's amazing how much more clothing you can put in dressers when you actually bother to fold them and put them in nicely. /brick'd

204974. I think I broke one of the tracks on one of mine, but I'm not sure, haha.

I think I might play some Pokemon with my sister. I've gotta keep her entertained somehow, and Pokemon is more interactive than a movie. /parents are out for the night.

RPGs have never been a "play with" game for me. Grinding isn't exactly the most fun thing to watch, which constitutes everything I do in arpeejees.

Fightan games are where it's at.

Everyone is gone from the house, so I'm probably going to make some ramen and watch something. Chances are that 'something' is going to end up being some Criminal Minds.

Well, I was thinking more of playing Battle Revolution with her, but I could also be teaching the TCG to her. I don't really trust her with my DS yet, as she's only 6.

My parents haven't actually left yet, they're waiting on my mom and my sister to get back from buying a pizza and returning a movie to Redbox.

I wanted to spent the morning watching Criminal Minds, but the weather was so nice, I got out after seeing two episodes. XD

/said she was going to make ramen.

>makes cookies
>destroys ravioli
>is currently on ravioli take two

god knows how well my cookies have turned out. they look good, but i shall see after they have cooled.

The temperature inside is the same as the temperature outside. I am missing nothing but possibly fresh air, but i don't need shoes on to walk around inside.

204980. Sounds like you're having a cooking adventure today.

I'd probably still have eaten that ravioli. but I'd eat just about anything as long as it's sanitary

Hope your cookies turned out good. :>

The temperature outside is probably 10 degrees warmer than it is inside.

My sister's watching a movie about owls and owl kingdoms. It's like a generic fantasy story with owls.

The hardest thing I know how to cook is instant pasta. ._.;
I really need to learn how to cook real stuff. xDD;;
It's been pretty chilly here. o3o
Or maybe that's because I'm wearing a T-Shirt. Either way.

204983. Things tend to turn out better if you actually cook them. :B but I'm lazy when it comes to cooking and will settle for microwaved food most of the time if it takes less effort

I think I may play some Civ IV.

Yes. Not like I was completely unaware of that or anything.

Guess I need to find something other than /brick'd to show when I'm being dumb on purpose.
