I've had nom nom nom stuck in my head the last few days.

seriously, why do people keep 3 different music threads alive? Damn annoying.
I believe it's time for mankind to set aside the crutch of religion and embrace morality born of reason and truth. Those crutches have long since proven treacherous when the ground gets slippery.

Cause this one isn't about what music you like, it's about what's Damn Annoying.

OK, now it's "All We Want to Do is Eat Your Brains". I've been humming it all day. I blame you zombies.

But images are back! Thanks Mods! (If, indeed this was your doing.)

I had Tom Lehrer's "She's My Girl" stuck yesterday, and I have no idea how or why.

Farfalla - I saw! The Prophet himself (pesto be upon him!) visiting our humble board.

I wonder if he'll post anything?

I noticed as well! I was going to send him a PM, but I never got around to it.

Anyway, I've had just about every single Weebl jingle stuck in my head over the last week.

But today, I realised that I have officially gone crazy. I have taken the train to coco loco town, fought the mayor and ended up the ruler of the Coco Loco Universe.
I no longer need any sound to "hear" any Pokemon game for the GBA/NDS. I've been playing Pokemon Platinum pretty much constantly today, humming along with the songs, listening to the various effects of the various attacks, the button tones. Then I realised the sound was off.

I was creating the sound in my head - perfectly. I double checked. I have played far too much Pokemon over the course of my life.

I wear the crazy crown!
A flap of the wings yesterday means big changes tomorrow.
Let's work together to keep the present inevitable.

So yeah, I went and got a blog.

Could be worse - could be "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park".
