Saturday Open Thread

by Alxala

Today is a sucky gray day. San_San and I went into town to go see the parade this morning, and it’s a lot of fun. 😀 I got a bunch of candy so that I can share them with my family. My favorite parts of the parade are the marching bands, McGruff the Crime Dog, and people who drive really old cars from the 40’s to the 50’s. After we got home I took a 2-hour nap.

We did have delicious cheeseburgers, french fries and corn-on-the-cob for dinner this evening. That really hit the spot. After I got dinner out of the way, I went on YouTube and watched a couple of videos from the Late Show. This first video is Stephen talking about President Fuckface Von Clownstick and NATO:

Ohhhh my goodness, I died laughing at the Donald Trump book, ‘Fifty Shades of Orange’. 😛 Then here’s this video where Stephen is saying strange quotes while wearing a Big Furry Hat:

I like the one quote that he said: ‘Anyone who tells me to ‘chillax,’ shall be ‘killaxed.’ I thought that was hilarious too. 😛

Saturday Afternoon Yard work Open Thread

by Alxala

Today is a breezy but nice day, Papa Smurf and I went out in the backyard to bag up piles of yard waste such as twigs, pinecones, pine needles, etc. I was taking control of the bags while he uses the shovel to put the crap in them. It only took about 20 to 30 minutes to get it done, and so far we bagged up a total of seven bags of yard garbage.

Afternoon Open Thread

by Alxala

There wasn’t much to report today. I went to do a couple of chores this afternoon because we’re gonna have a house inspection soon. First one is cleaning the kitchen floor by sweeping the crap up, washing it with a damp rag and some soap, rinsing it, and then drying it off with a towel. The other is brushing the carpets in the living room, the hallway and my bedroom so that Papa Smurf can run the vacuum and hit them with it. I hate doing chores, but they need to be done right away.

And before I go do something else, here’s a random Dorkly video that I was watching a couple days ago:

GMod Testing Open Thread

by Alxala

I have been doing some testing in GMod on our Sandbox server, and so far everything is in good shape. But it’s missing some of my addons such as the Invader Zim ragdolls, Mortal Kombat X characters and playermodels, etc.

Oh, I did take a few screenshots of more stuff that I got from the workshop:

Nicktoons Reunion!
Touhou characters
I used Outfitter to change from Anna to Elsa.

Outfitter is kinda like a tool where you and others can wear workshop playermodels without having to download them onto the server. That will be a lot fun! 😀 Now I can use Outfitter with Tomala and Yutram to show off various playermodels. 😛

After Dark Open Thread

by Alxala

Last night I went to a website called Play DOS Games Online, where you look around and find DOS games and old Windows games that you want to play, and I found an After Dark 3.2 program that has various screensavers. Here are some of them that are my favorites:

You Bet Your Head
Bad Dog!
DOS Shell
Rat Race

They’re really good screensavers and so do the others. 🙂 Unfortunately, it won’t work under Windows 7 but it will if it’s running under DOSBox or a virtual machine. I was thinking about doing that one of these days.
