Random Blather

[kippurbird]

Ren faire Saturday.

I got a shirt of awesome. It's a peasant shirt, I guess. Linen colored with ruffles on the end. Nice big and billowy. Saw a lot of LARP people. Apparently more people recognized me than I recognized them, but that's okay, I have no memory for faces.

I got called Sir at one point, which was awesome. I was watching a show from inside a booth and leaning against a railing. I started to put my knee on a bench when the shopkeeper came up to me and said, "Sir, be careful the bench will tip." I do believe this is the first time in real life I've been mistaken for a man. Which I have no issues with. I 'blame' the puffy shirt and the awesome vest thelastmehina made and which I borrowed.

There was steak and mushroom meat pie for a ridiculous price as well as a massive amount of ice cream for a ridiculous price. But they did taste good.

People of Twitter that are smarter Twitters than I. Why is my account for Alec getting random people who can't type words correctly following him? Are they like the Russian spambots on LJ?

Silly scene popped into my head in the Death God Rising universe. Theo and his uncle are walking through a Ren Faire and the uncle is bitching about how everything is wrong and then when Theo starts laughing at him, asks how would he like it when they would go to a 2000 year fair some time in the future. Theo continues to think this is funny.

I found the last episode of Doctor Who a lot scarier than Blink, but I think that's because it spoke more to my own anxieties.

Don't blink.

Also, need to watch it again (yay) to see about the coat.

You mean the girls with strange user-names who then type heinously misspelt messages about their boring daily lives? Yeah, I've figured they're spam bots. They bug me.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Yes. Those. *makes note to report them* What is even the point of thos... wait, they're spam bots, they need no point.

A lot of 'em have links to porn sites, too

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

That's what I thought they were, but I decided that clicking the links was stupid.

[rurounitriv.livejournal.com]

And you were correct!

[kjtaylor.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you had fun! *jealousy*

I see your peasant shirt and raise you a black robe with detacheable hood, loop belt and money pouch.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I would have so gotten more clothing except there was this little thing known as "money" that I was lacking.

[kjtaylor.livejournal.com]

I can understand that. The robe wasn't cheap either.

...but it was SO worth it.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

The shirt was SOOOOO worth it. The robe and money belt and and stuff will come later.

Don't even get me started on Flesh to Stone. the only reason I was able to fall asleep afterward was because I convinced myself that my cat would start screaming if an angel tried to come after me.

Yes I know I'm pathetic, but judging from the general fandom reaction, I am not the only one.

OHMIGHAWD WHEN THEY MOVED?! *hides*

[oceans-heart.livejournal.com]

And when you start thinking about the god damn pictures that Sally Sparrow gave the Doctor that are now sitting in the TARDIS?

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

.... I did not think of that.

Thanks. >

[oceans-heart.livejournal.com]

If you think that's bad don't go to the TV Tropes page for the episode. Reading what the tropers came up with scared me more then watching it!

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Ahhhahhaaaa... Shouldn't have done that.

Mistaken for a man, were you? Now when a girl flirts with you, you'll know you hit the high point! (I've had a few very awkward experiences. )

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I don't think that'll happen for a while yet. XD

[trinadi.livejournal.com]

You would be surprised how easily it can start. At Conventions now my friend takes a horn with her to blast at people who come near me. (>_<)>

Awesome shirt of awesomeness = cool! Used to have one like that, I think, from your description.

Random chicks who can't spell friending you = spam. Porn spam at that, if you look at the beginning post on most of them. Try going back to them the next day and their accounts will probably be suspended.

Gender Confusion

I wouldn't stress about it too much. I've been mistaken for a woman before (just because of the long hair) and I'm pretty obviously male.

People just don't pay attention. =(
