Sorry for being alive...

Hmm, I guess I don't really have a problem with either of those when worn by the right people. Some people are just able to pull that look off, in my opinion. Granted, on anyone else it looks pretty dumb, and for myself I prefer loose pants--except when I need them to go inside my boots, in which case the lower portion does need to be pretty narrow... *wanders off in thought*

...sorry for being alive.

I'm still wearing flared jeans.  They're comfortable and I think they're flattering.  I don't care if I dress out of style.  I love my flared jeans.

I'm frustrated because I don't own a good version of "O Holy Night".

Ah, I believe I gave you a Jamendo link last time. Didn't find a good version there?

In any case, Silent Night is also my favorite. In case I find one I'll let ya know.

No problems! Here, have a nugget.

...Did I post this somewhere already?  Is that when you gave me a link?  I can't remember; I'm currently drinking.  ><

Those are two different songs!  Silent Night is German, O Holy Night is French.  O Holy Night runs circles around Silent Night.  I'm not opinionated at all.  They're both from the same century, though.

Ah! Forgive me, I got confused. Anywhos, while I lost the initial links, here's a treasure-trove of music tagged with "Christmas".

A hundred different artists and their variations. Worth exploring.  :wink:

EDIT: Here's a version of O Holy Night (I think): http://www.jamendo.com/en/track/45433

This is almost trivial, but I tend to use mouthwash when I wake up. However, the chemistry of the mouthwash leaves a stark aftertaste that will alter the flavor of food and drink I consume afterward--especially things like citrus. Thus, the first few bites or swallows of whatever usually wind up tasting rather foreign.

O, the gustatory costs of oral hygiene...

Related: Not quite a frustration per se, but a curiosity borne of bemusement is the fact that many mouthwashes on the market aren't nearly as effective as ones like Listerine. Why do people even use them?

Perhaps because they might be cheaper?  I use Listerine myself, but if the other mouthwashes are cheaper and that's why some people purchase them then well...every penny saved counts.

Listerine is bafflingly expensive, that's true. I often resort to buying the generic stuff. But the generic stuff is in the same general price range as the generics of the non-Listerine stuff.

Everytime I mention someone that I've watched Heidi at childhood someone or the other just has to laugh out loud.

What, men can't watch children's drama?

Okay, that's something I agree with. He's the Thomas Kinkade of techno...and Red has a roommate who listens to him waaay too much. DX

I love art. I love animating. I love designing.

But I freakin' loathe documenting every aspect of it... Why is it necessary anyway?

It's probably intended to prove that you didn't steal someone else's final product and present it as your own. Unfortunately, systems like that tend to take on a life of their own. :(

FUCKING SHIT! Everytime I want to help someone, everytime I go out of my way to aid someone in need, almost everytime my efforts amount to nothing.

IT'S NOT FAIR!!
