The "Cognative Miser" effect of psychology states that human beings do not wish to use their brain more than absolutely necessary and its natural response is to simplify things as much as it can, i.e. putting a label on someone you probably won't have to deal with too often rather than putting thought into the deep inner-workings of said person. I'm not making this up. I took a psych class last semester. And, to move this aside but still stay on the overall topic... There's no such thing as "Normal", so ipso facto there cannot be a thing such as "Abnormal." That's my two cents.

Okies, here's my thoughts. 1. The video games are incredible. 2. The show sucks major bunnies 3. When Wizards of the Coast was behind the trading card game, it was fun. Fandom and endless knockoffs have almost taken the fun out of it. I still have my original decks and I'm keeping it that way, thank you. 4. There are only 151 Pokémon in my eyes. I can tolerate 250, but 350 is going too far and I'm not having any of it. 5. Fire and Psychic rock my socks. 6. Start with a Charmander. Trust me, aside from the initial trouble facing Brock, it'll be worth it. 7. Mewtwo is my bestest buddy. I like to hug him and pet him and scratch him behind his wittle ears and name him George. Well, actually, I name him Darkness, Jigglypuff, Saruman, Xemnas, and Sephiroth, but who's counting? That is all.

Darky's was hilarious. Mari...I couldn't read yours. I think it's my computer. but I couldn't read the words. This may sound like a huge cop-out, but I get the feeling that if I could read Mari's, I'd like it just as much and it would be impossible to choose between them. Seriously, you should only make us vote between two versions of the same scene.
I love you I think about you As I'm lying in my bed Then I look out the window And I see your face And I'm frightened 'Cause I live on the eighth floor You must be really really tall You scare me
It's the "Mookie" part, that's very close to "Mook." It's just what I think of when I see the username. It has nothing to do with the person behind it. And Skyru...ummm....a flying Russian?
I see a low-level Mafia goon being sucked into an adventure beyond his wildest dreams, where he ends up saving the world from some powerful supernatural force. Mmmmyep...

I honestly don't know where I'll be. I know what I want, but I have no idea how I'm going to get there.

OOC: I have no idea what just happened there... ******************************************* Xemnas stared blankly. He thought he had heard something, pretty sure he had seen something, and knew for a fact he had felt something, but he was at a loss at how to interpret the data in his brain. "Right...so...anyway...Larxene, again, do you know anything about who decided to consume all the ice cream in the jar that clearly had my name written on it?" He found it difficult to keep up a demeanor of control, since so many things had gone beyond his in less than a half-hour.
*marching!* 2254 We Don't Wanna Go To....work today...
Xemnas stood and waited. After about twenty minutes he rubbed a migrane out of his temples, picked up the baby Luxord and turned to Larxene. "Since you have just told me you have been away for some time, I know you're not responsible for this," he said, indicating the burbling infant in his arms. "However," he added, more dire, "and I want you to be completely honest with me right here and now, are you, and if not do you know who is, responsible for that?" He pointed to the empty ice cream jug that had his name written ever-so-neatly on it. He gave Larxene a waiting stare that would bore holes in her if it was physically possible, trying to look as serious and menacing as one could with a happily oblivious child over one's shoulders.
Xemnas stared down at what he could only surmise was an infant version of Luxord. He picked up the child and sat it on the counter. He examined Luxord for a moment, and then hung his head in exaspiration. "They come here. They all come here. How do they find me?" he thought aloud. H sat the empty ice cream container next to the infant Luxord. He then took some index cards and a pen out of his robe pocket. On one he wrote "Exhibit A" and the other he wrote "Exhibit B" and placed them next to the child and the box. He then boomed in his loudest voice "IF THERE IS A MEMBER OF THIS ORGANIZATION WHO HAS NOT BEEN AWAY FOR A MONTH, REPORT TO THE KITCHEN IMMEDEATELY!
"You know, I have just one request here, and that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attatched to their heads! No, evidently my cycloptic collegue informs me that that can't be done. Can you remind me what I pay you people for? Honestly, throw me a bone here!"
2217 Yay!!!! You know what this calls for? A Sexy Party!
