    I really don’t like letting anyone in my kitchen.

    Me: ”I need to go. Cook some sausage gravy for dinner.”
    Alex: ”Yeap.”

    M: ”You should wash the dishes first.”
    A: ”That was the plan.”

    M: ”You know how to cook sausage gravy, right? First you chop the sausages, and…”
    A: ”I know.”

    M: ”Use the small kettle. I need to get going.”
    A: ”Yeah yeah.”

    A thinking: ”3… 2… 1…”

    M: ”You can find potatoes from…”
    A: ”Get going, already! I know what to do!”

    Last night I dreamed my father was not dead.

    In my dream, I am shopping for groceries.

    170914_2
    I forget the shopping, when a familiar person passes me by.

    I ran after the figure.

    ”Da! Wait!!”

    170914_3
    Finally, I catch him.

    ”Where have you been!?
    We have been really worried and sad!
    Things should be taken care of!!

    There is an awful pile of estate and funeral bills, too!
    You are hopeless!!”

    My father replies:

    ”I was having a vacation.”

    ”It really hit the spot.”

    170914_4
    ”Huh? But who did we then cremate? Did you fake your own death?”

    Then I woke up.
    Lots of things were left unsaid.

    Roleplays are fun, they said…

    Thinking: ”It would be fun to get Eryk in the dating scene. I’ll ask L if Character M is free.”
    Typing: ”Hey, I was wond–”

    Text on the screen: Character M is dating Character B, lol!
    Thinking: ”Eeeeh… There is not much others free.”

    080914_2
    Thinking: ”Well, Eryk could send a gift to Character D. Character D is from another tribe, but long-distance relationship could be interesting.
    Text on the screen:  Character Y(* has a crush on Character D, lol!

    ”Urgh!”

    (* Characters Y and B are played by same person.

    ”You owe me a computer.”

    ”Yeah yeah!”

    One night:
    ”So I went and bought this weird fruit soda from the nut store.”

    Thinking: ”Gee, why did I have to? Is this even good?
    Better make sure, so I won’t get disappointed.”

    *slurrp*

    ”It is so good I don’t any other soda anymore.”

  • Ähtäriin mä kaipaan niin – taas uudelleen

    syyskuu 25th, 2014

    I went camping to Ähtäri with my friend Kata on 15.8.-17.8.14. It was my first time camping, so I had prepared both too well and run of the mill.
    ”My back hurts just a wee bit…”

    Overpacked backpack, slightly broken
    Town clothes, also slightly broken
    Tent

    Straps of the backpack caused me trouble.
    ”Aiee-ouch!”

    ”Probably not like this either.”

    ”I give up.”

    180814_2
    I felt like the majority of the trip was spent in trains.
    First the trip between Koivukylä and Hyvinkää; two trains.

    Thinking: ”Well, of course the rush hour train.”

    The trip between Hyvinkää and Riihimäki.

    ”And the straps did not work like they should’ve worked.”

    ”HAHAHA! Help, I can’t stand this!”

    180814_3
    During the trip between Riihimäki and Seinäjoki we finally got seats.

    ”Sorry, soz…”
    *Bonk*
    *thump*
    *poke*
    *smack*

    Train aisles can be surprisingly narrow.

    At Seinäjoki, we swapped into a regional train. It was also called rail bus.

    ”And we did not get any photos of it!
    It was like a train’s baby! It did not use electricity!

    I really have to google it sometime!”

    Ohessa googletettu kuva: Klik-klik

    180814_4
    At the railway stop of Ähtäri Zoo we noticed how we are totally not in the metropolitan area anymore.

    No electricity wires for trains.

    One (1) set of railroad tracks.

    ”The train goes here six times a day. When we return, we really can’t go to the wrong train.”

    Walking trip to the camping site sure felt longer when going there than when returning.
    I think I complained surprisingly little.

    ”Imma gonna die… Gonna fall to the ditch… My knee can’t take it… Back hurts… Boohoo…”

    ”It is behind the next curve.”

    Kata has the patience of a saint.

    180814_5
    We finally got to the camping site, so we registered in.
    Setting the tent worried me.

    Horror scenario 1:
    ”#%&¤##¤%! …ck! It just does not work!”

    ”Whatever, I’ll sleep like this!”

    Horror scenario 2:
    ”There it goes. We forgot the stakes.”

    ”I thought you were speaking of steaks.”

    180814_6
    ”No nonsense!”
    *snap*

    *Laaaaaaaaaah!*

    ”…”
    Setting instructions

    ”Oh, it was that easy. We just need to add the protective textile and stakes.”

    180814_7
    Saturday, 16th of August.
    My back was hurting a little. I was not used to sleeping outside.

    ”Oh, …ck!”

    The maintenance building made things remarkably easy.
    Sinks
    Showers
    Caravan area is that way
    More sinks
    Funny mirrors, for some reason
    Kitchen unit
    Water unit
    One can go straight through
    Toilets
    More sinks

    No one mention this to Kata’s father.

    180814_8
    On Saturday we went to the zoo, too.
    The most important animal to me was the badger.

    The most important animal to Kata was the fox.

    180814_9
    To Kata, foxes are like the badgers to me; the most valued favourite animal.

    On Saturday, there was also time just to be.

    ”Who was the murdered Sharon, again?”
    (Author’s note: it is ’tate’, in case someone is doing a crossword with similar hint)

    Loput reissusta raportoidaan sitten kun saan muita juttuja pois alta.
    Rest of the reportage will be done after I get other stuff away.

  • Immateriaalioikeuksista

    syyskuu 19th, 2014

    ”Can we discuss plagiarism?”

    I run an Elfquest-based roleplay forum in the Internet. It is named Wild Forest Holt.
    It is an okay forum, just a tad slow with action.

    *type type*

    I have used a lot of effort to the concept, ideas and tribe info, such as tribal roles.
    Thinking: ”I can’t think of anything.”

    As far as I know, no one has snatched my ideas, art, writings or anything of same sort.
    ”Bad drawing skills have their benefits. Hah.”

    050814_2
    I was pretty much surprised, when I noticed similar material in another EQ-based group.
    Thinking: ”Hmm…”

    I asked my friends opinion.
    Me in chat: ”Hey, see any similarities in these lists? [link 1] [link 2]
    My friend in chat: ”Now that you mention it, yeah.”

    Apparently, the admin in another group had sought out some inspiration from the other groups.
    ”Which basically is quite alright, I guess? One would know how to pose sub forums, categories, etc.”

    But, to be honest, I was not thrilled to find my list copied and pasted without my permission.
    ”And I do realize that lists are really hard to write using one’s own words, without copying anyone.”

    050814_3 ”
    But the list was partially identical from word to word. It had only been altered for another setting.
    ”Even the fulfilled roles were marked the same way!”

    ”Don’t get me wrong, tho. If an idea is a good idea, it can be used. But credit where it’s due, right? Of course right.”

    I had copied my own skill list from an old, nowadays ended, group. I had a mention of the fact.
    On the screen: Please note! This list has been copied and altered from Shadow Wood Holt!
    There won’t be misunderstandings this way.

    And of course, I could not write to the admin of the other group like this:
    ”Waaah, I own the rights to the term ’hunt leader’! Also to the jungle theme!
    I’ll sue! You owe me 100 zillion euros!”

    050814_4
    So, I wrote like this:
    ”Hi! I noticed some similarities in these lists, so is you have been searching for inspiration from my group, it would be nice if you could mention it and maybe add a link.
    Good luck and all the best!
    – Mia”

    Thinking: ”So, they did mention the source. Small font. No link. (* Makes me a little mad.
    *Sigh*
    (* The link was added, eventually.

    ”What I am trying to say is that even if some thing is in the Internet, it does not necessarily mean that it is available for all use.
    Asking permission and mentioning sources are mandatory things.”

    ”Everybody here knows this, right?
    Of course right!”

    Art thefts are a whole different story…

    WHY ON EARTH WOULD ONE CROP OUT THE ARTIST SIGNATURE?!
    IMAGE SHARING SITES SUCK!!
    WHY ARE WATERMARKS REMOVED!?
    MAKING MONEY WITH SOMEONE ELSE’S WORK!!
    IT MAKES ME SO PISSED, THIS MODERN COURSE OF THINGS!!
