question about meme origin 

what's the origin of the "i want a girl with a short skirt and a long X" meme? what was X in the original? what _was_ the original?

re: -- 

it's helping to know that she's at peace with it, and looking forward to seeing our grandfather (her husband) again, I guess

It's still sad though

Paper Mario: an Italian plumber made of paper saves the princess with the help of a walking mushroom, a turtle, a friendly explosive, a *flying* turtle, a ghost, a baby sentient static discharge, a fish, and a turtle but this time riding a cloud.

why is it that a meal may consist of more than one food item but almost never more than one drink?

since 3d graphics are generally harder to do than 2d graphics, it never ceases to feel weird to us that the n64 wasn't powerful enough to do 2d games

Mathematics is not, except on the most superficial of levels, about numbers.

I don't have any context for this, it's just something I felt like saying.

money - 

aaaa. down to $30 for the rest of the month until we get paid on monday

money is Bad

you ever just feel restless but also too tired to actually do anything because that's me right now

romantic orientation 

I call myself aromantic but really I don't know if I have no romantic interest in anyone or if I have romantic interest in literally everyone who isn't a dick

I don't know if there's even a meaningful difference

why is it so difficult, when there's a free and a paid version of some random software, to figure out what the *difference* between the free and paid versions is

like I know the free version is going to be limited, but how is it limited? do I get a limited-time trial? is it some features are locked out? is it just going to tell me "hey you should buy this" every so often but do nothing to enforce that like winrar? or is it just a case of "free for personal use but businesses have to pay"?

the worst thing about this whole naming scheme is that we've never actually played through all of final fantasy 8

it has some really fantastic music though

we recently got a new laptop as a gift from our parents, to replace our current falling-apart one

this means that we have now gone through all the computer names we had lined up and I don't know what the next one will be called

Our previous laptop was fithos, the current soon-to-be-replaced one is lusec, our desktop is wecos, and the new one is vinosec

Accessibility question: When captioning videos, is it better to:

caption everything recorded, even including "um, well this one" and "so you have your err.. ah, that thing, and uh, this one over ah, here"

or caption only what was intended, as "this one" and "so you have that thing, and this one over here"

(obviously in either case egregious mistakes would be pointed out as "so you have that thing [those things]" if it's important to understanding what's being said)
