Many happy returns

To serendip and chocojoshy. XD (And now I go watch Paprika at Cinéma du Parc.)

Some links:

Typing Test (last seen on tarigwaemir): my top speed was 113.61 wpm / 448.89 cpm. I tried to slow down after that and type at my "normal" speed, and got 107.71 wpm / 465 cpm. Of course, not having to think about what one's typing helps. XD

Neil Gaiman's China post: self-explanatory. When he posted that photo of self with panda I was reminded of moderntime's poll from a bit back (now revealed as visionary XD).

People, help me come up with a name for the GetBackers guess-the-author fic challenge! incandescens suggested get_back_the_author but it's too long for LJ, alas.

Mmm, Paprika. Now that was a chef d'oeuvre. Enjoy!

Best,

The name of the community is nice and can be easily trimmed down-- "getbackauthor," for example.

I would have suggested something similar...such as getauthors

It's just that the syntax used in the series is always "get back the..." I dunno. XD Getbackthefic?

Ah, I want to see Paprika on the big screen so bad!

Clearly, the way to bring about world peace = breed lap pandas.

sdlfk my top typing speed was 136.88 wpm / 580.91 cpm, which is pretty insane and a little inaccurate because I don't usually type that fast at all. I have decent instinctive movement and I actually read ahead in the text as my fingers are moving, so that probably speeds things up (this skill is thus only useful if I'm typing verbatim from text; why am I not a secretary XD).

Every time I see these triple-digit typing speeds I want to cry. ;_; 63.03 wpm / 267.5 cpm with 3 mistakes. I still look at the keyboard when I type.

Fanks~ Rufus, huh? You're so much better at gig going than I am. I'm laaaaazy. I wonder, do you go alone or wiff people? I sort of like going wiff but sometimes it's hard to find people to go wiff. Unless it is to the scary mega kpop jams and I actually dislike said gigs. Too big.

Sometimes I go alone (especially to Piknic or other outdoor music events) but it's usually not too difficult to find someone to drag along? XD This time I was with my sister, and for Daft Punk I was with Cedric and a girl from my workplace.
