Flash mob scenes always put a smile on my face. :-) And today I found one from Copenhagen, Denmark. This was really beautiful and just put a smile to my face. :-D I would love to ride that train, seriously.

( Copenhagen Phil doing a flash mob in the Copenhagen Metro )

Anyone would get a smile from that.

And I needed it. So, so worried about quite a few of my LJ-friends. I honestly don't know what to do, and it... makes me feel so helpless. :-P Like it is my fault and I could do so much more and I... don't even know what. :-P

Apparently hexenhasel has deleted her LJ and her Twitter tonight (my time). :-/ Anyone know why? I hope she isn't in any trouble or anything... and that she'll be fine?

Gladly I had fun at work today though. Yes, I worked today. Four hours, so not so much but still. I usually don't take a coffe (/tea) break when I work so little, but some of my workmates told me I could need it, so I walked off to do so.

And ran right into my WoW-playing workmate. X-D

It is quite hilarious. We had lunch together a while ago her and I. She is.. between 55-60 in age somewhere. And I dont' remember how but we ended up talking computers and computer-games... and the fact I played World of Warcraft...

Apparently, so does she! AND! She is more off a nerd then me! X-D Her favorite class being rouge...

So today, when she came into the staff coffee room... she just pointed a finger at me and exclaimed: "I don't backstabb workmates!" prompting both of us to fall into giggles! MY GOODNESS!!! X-D Then we proceeded to geek out over WoW for a bit (and complain about all the immature kids in the game), before we had to go back to work!

Epicness! *lol*

So some sadness (a lot of it actually), and some awesome this day. I am hoping for a better day tomorrow. :-) *keeps fingers crossed for all her LJ-friends*

Aaaaaaaand the Tokio Hotel fandom exploded. X-D Man, I am mostly amused by the fans then the boys themselfs. They just do their own thing and don't give a fuck. :-) Especially Bill Kaulitz. Now, Bill ain't my favorite in the band at all, but man... I do respect him for just not giving a shit and doing his thing. :-) Huge, huge props for that.

So to those not in the fandom, have a comparison, yeah? Because I am hella amused by the fandoms reaction to it all. :-D

(All pics are clickable for bigger.)

Now this is the look Bill Kaulitz is the most infamous for, isn't it? :-) Monsoon days, ah yes...



Well. He and his twin Tom lives in LA, USA these days. And they were caught the other night by paparazzi. Really recently apparently, since the photos was just posted today. :-) And the reactions to Bills new style in the fandom? Well... Let's just say I am amused. :-)



Thanx th_apex for posting them photos.... I can only chuckle at the Bill-fans that are all up in arms over his new look... *shakes head* I guess I am to old and have been in too many fandoms... Either that or I have a loot of geese in my family, because it just rolls off me. :-)

ANYWAY! :-D

Gonna write a more proper post tomorrow. :-)

You know... Sometimes I feel really old. In two days time even. One thing made me laugh at what a silly old woman I am. And the other just made groan and wish people could just grow the fuck up...

Lets start with the bad one, shall we?

Well. You know I am the secretary at the board of the LARP society? Well. Being a member off the board means you have to do stuff for the society. On your spare time. Right? Right. Some people apparently don't realize that LARPers to have a life and jobs to take care off... ANYWAY! When I was in the kitchen making a cake, I hear peting73 start to swear in the computer room... Apparently someone from the place where the LARP rent rooms to play in had tried to get a hold off the board today. During business hours. When we all were either at work or at school. (He didn't leave a message on our answering machine or call our mobile-numbers that we clearly give in the message in the machine...) Giving up he had finally found another member off the LARP, telling him a lot of complaints about the LARP and telling him he don't want our president as a contact anymore, not giving a reason. He then continued to post this information on a public board where all LARP members can read. Phrasing it such that it read like our president sucks. Then all hell broke lose. And me and peting73 had to spend some time calling around first to see if the complaints the society got was justified (one where, the rest not so much). Then I called our president, who also is a good friend off both me and peting73 asking him if he was OK. He was so pissed off he could hardly see straight. Then I called the guy posting and gave him a piece of both mine and peting73s mind, how not so very clever that move was... He apologized and said hadn't meant to phrase it as such. Bad luck, bub. You already did. So now on Monday I have to call the person taking care off the rooms we rent and clear out this fucking mess. Then me and peting73 will be the contacts after that. Maybe they'll be happier with us, since we are quite a bit older then the others in the LARP-society...?

Seriously... Grow the fuck up! *groan*

And then to the fun "lets-show-how-old-KSena-is..."

To save a bit at least on our phone bills me and spicehobbit have taken to chatting on MSN instead. ;-) Trust me, when we get going on the phone, we can talk for hoooouuuurs... X-D Anyway, she told me the other day she'd been out shopping at a music store in town. Quite a few in line, and when spicehobbit was done and getting her things together, the next in line, a really young girl no older then 12, asked the guy at the desk if they had any Tokio Hotel albums... Naturally she told me this and telling me I was in good company...

X-D

Right. Were is my cane and walking frame? I have kids asses to kick!

Pissing off most of there users, that is. Anyone noted how there Userinfo look nowadays? Not an improvement? I couldn't agree more. *shakes head* Looks butt ugly, and not user-friendly at all. To cluttered. Stuff at top that should be at bottom, etc, etc... I could go on. If you dislike it to, I suggest you join the community changeitback. Perhaps there are someone out there that like this new change, and that is fine. But give us who don't like it an opt out for it so we don't HAVE to use it. You know? It is just a head-count-community, so no postings in it. There is also a Petition to sign that apparently is going to be sent to the LJ-team.

Well, what would life be around here if there weren't an LJ drama now and then, hmm? :-P

It is still boring silly at work. It is very clear it is a financial crisis going on. No one books conferances anymore. Meaning less rooms booked. Less calls. No business men on the road... No rooms booked. Less calls... Etc, etc... My job is encouraging people to take some days off or leave work early (if we do we get less payed)... Same thing at peting73s work. Feels... less then fun. He has lots of vacation-days to use, I only have two left. So I am going to use them next week to prepare for peting73s birthday and also, of course, to play World of Warcraft since the expansion is released REALLY soon!

peting73 and his friends (all computer-savy that I trust my lovely computer with) found a really neat and easy to use anti-virus program. the Home Edition is for free use, you want a Professional Editon you have to pay. Clever sales pitch... Anyway, I love this new thing! I highly suggest you check it out at least!

Avast! Antivirus Protection

Yes, I was amused with the name to! X-D It is, however very good. ;-)

Another tip for all you music-lovers out there that I found today is... Musicovery! Such a cool thing to use to listen to music... for free! And it picks music depending on your mood! Really fun to play around with. I highly suggest you try it out.

I also changed back to another layout today, I have used before. Found more GORGEOUS stock-headers I wanted to use. :-) Not enough femme-slash out there, just saying... ;-)

Tomorrow LARP! Yay! More inspiration for my story about Rose! :-D Finished off Chapter 5 the other day. It got LONG! o.O And some other chapters are short... :-P It all depends on how much stuff happens in the LARP... And how much it would be logical that the main character, Camilla, would know about. Servents don't find out EVERYTHING after all. ;-D

And I am a bit thorn... Surfed over my flist and found a warning in darker_spike about a community stealing icons, or so it said in the post. I got curious and surfed over. And geez all hell.... *sigh* Flame-war anyone? Oh and drama to? Not to mention it has spread over my f-list like wild-fire. And my problem is that I agree with both sides. Since what the owner of the community does is, he has written a program that uses the public picture feed that LiveJournal has. Meaning, all your pictures on your LJ can be found very easily with a simple search, with no way of knowing who made it. Meaning, no credit to you. When it comes to icons and such, well... The images used to do them are probably copyrighted already to someone else, but still... It gives a bad taste, even if it is not breaking any rules. But to those that actually have copyrighted stuff on there LJ (I am looking at you now, croaky,anla and silvestris) there is a simple way of stopping your pictures from showing in the public picture feed. I have done it, and I don't even have anything on here that is copyrighted to me.

If you don't want your public images and your public posts to show up in latest.bml, latest-rss.bml, and latest-img.bml, go to http://www.livejournal.com/admin/console/ and enter:

set latest_optout yes

then click the "Execute" button. If you want to change this later, it's simply:

set latest_optout no

(Thanx genkitty for letting me know how to do it.)

This war is so silly, it is not even funny. One side says they are right, and the other side says they are right. Not to mention all the name calling being thrown all over the place. Me? Well, I just don't care about it, since it is such a huge grey-area. And yes, it is the icon-makers and manip-makers that are screaming the loudest. The once who's work are in the deepest of grey-areas. Yes, I always credit if I can find the person that has done the icon or a manip, since I think it is a nice thing to do. But those who don't are no villians. Really. *sigh*

Time to go kill dragons in WoW I think...

Edit: As always the all wonderful, and nifty wonder that is japeweird has done a much better post about the matter, stating what to do, why the LJ-war, and.... Lots more information. I so love this woman. Here is her post about the matter:
Japeweird on the matter of bandwidth, icon-stealing and the like...
I HIGHLY recommend you reading her post if you are worried about the matter.

JESUS!!! Being a co-mod is not easy. And now I was kicked 'cause I missunderstod to boss-mod. Oh my gosh. I almost regret taking this on. Hopefull she won't kick me from the game fully. But who knows? Who knows what will happen now? *shakes head* Feels like I ended up in the middle of the drama to. Not only is the mod pissed off at me. Some of the members are to. I did warn them I was going to be honest with them. I guess it didn't work. *shakes head again* This is just CRAZY!!!

EDIT: And yet another game has died. Yes, the mod deleted me, not just as a co-mod, but also restricted me from posting. She also closed the game down "until I am ready to start over". In other words, sadly that game died to. And the plot in this one was the one I liked the most! *sigh* Damn, damn.
