Anyway, happy whatever stupid holiday you celebrate. Here's to an increasingly less miserable CPHoya in 2014.

Oh yeah, obligatory half-assed joke.

Why'd you quit your job? So you could open up a #PETLAWYERIN' business? You know, because you love cats so much. Right? That's it, right? God, your life is a joke.

Wow, seriously? I guess it's not that surprising given that we're both Scandis and we've both learned the language by watching American films. Still though, pretty sick to get two of the exact same cities.

So to you Americans... How do you feel about American films promoting Honolulu/New Jersey accents/dialects to the rest of the world? :P

Oh no, who let Bobo back. Time for another permaban! Asians are people too.

Go and chess both great games, just like cats and dogs are both great.

My mother and stepfather got me a new laptop for christmas despite me begging them not to spend money on me. I've never been so thankfull. Its been years since I've had a decent computer that actually works.

I really hope everyone has had a great day, regardless of the religious implications

I spent 40 minutes this afternoon trying to figure out how to turn on my daughters quadcopter. Read the directions a zillion times. Turn on, turn off, remote on, remote off... I even googled the support thread for it. I watched youtube videos of people doing it. Still nothing. I was finally playing with the rate doubling performance switch on the remote and the quadcopter started... And flew right into me.

Works fine now. idk...
