LOLworthy

    When your compy can't even muster enough oomph to effectively move the Task Manager window, you know it's going to be a painfully sloooooooooow day.

    This one's been waiting for a little while and I just found it. The little bugger had snuck out of my LOLworthy folder.

    As you may or may not know already, Flickr has added video capability! Some love it and some hate it but as forme and my house, we shall sayeth, "d00d, can I get a HUZZAH?!" It's limited to 90 seconds in order to maintain the photography purity of the website (Flickr videos are considered "long photographs.") but nonetheless, the capability has still been added.
    And of course, I was all over it. [See my video set here.] But Flickr's video uploader still has a few quirks and occasionally it will be unable to process a video for no apparent reason. Although I believe it was a prank, the wording of this processing error still finds its way to LOLworthy.
    "Unable to process this...chicken?"

    Been busy with college coursework (yeah, right...actually been busy with NES and SNES emulators acquired through my boyfriend) and so have not had a lot of LOLworthy stuff to post, but I did just happen upon this page...

    I have a speech I have to give tomorrow for my...you guessed it...Speech class. And of course, as any self-respecting college student would do, I have waited until the last minute to git 'er done.
    My topic? "Defragging: Does A 'Puter Good."
    The speech discusses several elements of simple computer maintenance that anyone can perform, in order to save them heartache in the long run, focusing on the defragmenting process.
    Of course, in my panic to get the friggin' thing done, I had quite a few things open so I could multi-task, researching and writing the speech simultaneously. The speech requires a PowerPoint presentation, hence the screenshot.

   It could be the fact that my brain, stressed and in a frenzy, is currently floating in a tepid pool of caffeine, but I find it slightly amusing that as I sat at my lappy trying to assemble a halfway-decent slideshow on improving computer performance, the browser with which I was doing research zonked out.

HUZ to the ZAH!

Go to LOLworthy on Facebook NOW, oh lush gardenia!

    I knew my Zune kicked arsh0nezz (80GB, biatchos, that's larger than my laptop's HD), but what I didn't know was that it was "well-endowed."
   

    Today I witnessed a rare spectacle - it snowed...in Texas...in March. The meteorologists say we could get five inches of snow tonight. To some of y'all Yankees that might seem like a picnic in the park, but Texans are a lot wimpier about cold weather. All the schools are expected to be closed tomorrow.
    The cold shouldn't stick around too long, though. There is a saying in the Lone Star State about our weather:

If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes and it'll change.

    The WeatherBug screenshot to the right was seen months ago, but it's typically Texan.
    But anyway, this weather has given me a bit of extra time to get some coursework done for my online Web Programming class and listen to some John Mayer.
     I've also been on a White Stripes kick recently. I just downloaded a few MP3s by them from Wal-Mart Music Downloads.
    Wow! I knew they weren't new to the music business, but I had no idea they'd been around that long! I mean, 108 years of awesomeness and still going strong?
    Yeah, so it's just a typo. Still, I think there's some subliminal stuff going on with that website.

    

    Want to see what I did last night instead of college coursework? Well, I try to keep LOLworthy PG to PG-13, so I can't say.

    But seriously, LOLworthy is now on MySpace! So add it to your friends list.
   
    Or be a turd and don't.
