AIM Profile

Ok, AOL sucks but I'm stuck with it. Their punny little thing about having a tiny aim profile was too limiting so I decided that my AIM profile would be this page here. This extensive and long document contains quotes, notes and pictures that are of some relevance in my life. Most are funny, witty or have some sort of hidden or obvious meaning. Hell, they may have a combination of any of those things in them. I did try to give credit to whom it is due. There are some instances where it was impossible so I just have people like "guy" or "girl" or "[insert random integer > 0]". Also note that the contents of this page are rated "T for Teen" due to some sexual situations as well as a few four letter words that aren't normally spoken in formal english.

One more thing to clarify. Certain individuals have asked who is who in this profile. Here is an itty bitty list of the insignificant percentage of the world's population that I interact with on a regular basis.

  • Zero, Xero, MadMac256, Xero256000, John - Me
  • Serg - My brother
  • Angie - my sister
  • Rachel - my other sister (she turned 8 in 2004)
  • Perry Kennedy, Eric the Red, Drew, Pfaff, Jason, DJ, Sara, Travis, Mel, Josh, Perkins - Friends from RMC
  • Kat - A sister of a fellow John
  • Kath, CynicalKitty86 - Eric The Red's Sister
  • Justin, Joe - A few friends of our family
  • Fuller - A fellow student at ECPI
  • Mr. Marques (pronounced 'marks'), Dr. Newsom, Ms. Fran Musick - Instructors at ECPI
  • Epicetetus, Epicurus - Really, REALLY old Greek or Roman philosophers (can't remember which). Yes they are dead.
  • Piro - A really cool artist with his own webcomic
  • G - A friend of mine at work.

Oh! *insert old chinese man's voice* ONE MORE THING! *end old chinese man's voice* As noted, there are references to games and whatnot below. Here's a list of what you can expect (not that anyone will pay any attention to any of this....).

  • PSO - Phantasy Star Online
  • Neverwinter Nights - a popular role playing game for the PC. It's based on DnD.
  • DnD, DND, Dungeons and Dragons - a pencil & paper role playing game
  • Red Hat 9 - a popular flavor of linux that is installed on an old PC named Dent.
  • Mac - my wonderful Power Macintosh G4 (Quicksilver 02). His name is Zero. No, there is nothing wrong. I name my computers to tell them apart. I build them as a hobby and own 4 working machines. Yes I use them. No you can't have them!

You know when you are in a college dorm when you step out of a room and into the hall and watch people go by. First comes a guy from the shower - wrapped in a towel - with two hot chics following him - ALSO in towels. What's more interesting about this is they were twins and the towels were too small so it split in the front a little... =D
--A sight to see in my hall, freshman year

John: I have one question for you!
Travis: What?
John: Is your mango ripe?

Have you ever tried riding a bike with no seat? I took my seat off my bike during freshman year because nobody would steal a bike with no seat. So I am standing on the pedals then I sneezed. You can't just hold on to one handle bar and sneeze. I did and my bike became a polt-a-Perkins.

Nobody look at me, I need to go put on a bra.

I find it fun to steal quotes from other people's profiles!
--Xero256

Life's dirty. Life's unclean you know. It's birth, it's sex, it's the intestinal tract. One big squishy, unsanitary mess. It never gets any cleaner either. You know, dust to dust, worms crawl in, worms crawl out, right? Even though we know that, we still walk the walk, we still live the life. We're like a bunch of little kids. Little kids, you know, we jump in this big old pond of mud and we're slapping it all over our face, rubbing our hair all down our backs and we're making these glorious, gooey, mud pies. That's us.
-Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, Mite Makes Right, 1994

CynicalKitty86: A little learning is a dangerous thing but a lot of ignorance is just as bad.

Serg: ....I only say those things to my friends. Mainly because they are the only ones who understand me.
John: They are the only ones who can understand you.
Serg: The rest can't understand me.
John: And they are lucky because there are some who can but don't want to understand you!

Serg: I can spit in 7 different languages.

John: I hate statistics.... They make fun of me.

Serg: What am I? Retarded?
John: ....
Serg: Wait! Rhetorical question! Rhetorical question!! You don't need to answer that!
John: ....
John: Really.

*Serg: If you kill one man, you are a murderer. If you kill 10, you are a monster. If you kill, 100 you are a hero. If you kill 10000, a conquerer!
John: Ummm.... Well, yeah that's true! Unless you are Hitler-- But waaaaaaiiiit! It depends what side of the fence you are on.
Serg: Very true. After all, history is only written by the winners.
*The above quote came out of a discussion on Warhammer (a table-top war-game).

*matter-of-fact voice* As long as we are restating known facts, the world is round.
--Serg

John: Have you ever used Grants* purposely on a box before?
Serg: Yeah, 'cause I was really bored. Why would you want to anyways?
John: To send it to the 9th level of hell.
*Grants is an uber spell in PSO*

Serg: I Grants you your wish!

Serg: ...and that's why I stopped.
John: What? Thinking?
Serg: Yeah. That.

Ok, so I'm in the shower and my mind is wandering.... (ohhh.... dangerous subject....) I notice our window there in the shower. I see that the frost stuff that makes it impossible to see what goes on in the shower has chipped off. I remember the windows in our house leak when water is sprayed at them. Then I remember my PC. It isn't that bad of a machine. The hardware is excellent - like the rest of our house. It is fairly efficient and very durable - again, our house is the same - except one thing: windows. Windows is the reason why my PC crashes constantly - and why our electric bill is so high. Windows has holes to let intruders into my PC and fuck things up - then again, air comes and goes through our house all the time. When it is stormy outside, you stay away from the windows of your house. Yet the internet is storming with viruses and shit that blows right through the world's most popular operating system constantly. You see, the answer to the problem is clear. Windows are bad things. They have new windows out for our house that cost an arm and a leg that will help our electric bill. But I have yet to see a decent operating system with Windows in it's name. PC's have an advantage over a house. Windows can be safely removed and replaced with a cheaper replacement with less problems. This brings up another question - why are there so few Linux users?
-- John


Hmmm.... I'm glad my Mac doesn't have this problem
-- John

John: Your stupidity astounds me....
Rachel: Huh?

*while Rachel and I were playing PSO*
Rachel: What are you doing?
John: Running around in circles, waiting for you.
Rachel: Do you see the face on my look?
John: ....

YAY bugs!

Fortune cookies are neat. But they get better if you add the phrase "in bed" after it. Here are two "fortunes" that I recently received from such cookies:
Try a new system or different approach in bed.
