Bits & Pieces X (Hobo Kisses Edition)

[Steamer_KING]

All musicians in da house, prepare to laugh and weep when you see this little girl play guitar like a goddess.

[MeechMunchie]

I get the feeling this might be Bungle's sort of thing.

Your cosmic address.

[Steamer_KING]

I was actually expecting a "Your Mom" joke. I was disappointed.

[STM]

Your map doesn't have everyone's favourite half-moon, 3753 Cruithne on it, nor does it have Sedna.

0/10

[Bullet Magnet]

It doesn't have HD175043 either.

[STM]

Come on Marcus, this isn't like you.

[Bullet Magnet]

Neither does it have Xi-1 Sagittarii. And yet it does have Pluto. Even though when you look at the sky as of today, Pluto is visible between Xi-1 Sagittarii and HD175043.

[STM]

Okay now you're showing off.

[Bullet Magnet]

You challenged my identity.

[STM]

Assert dat authoritah.

[Bullet Magnet]

Asserted.

I have to go now. My planet needs me.

There are cases when this is the answer, e.g. when the board is square-shaped, and Marie is determined to always saw at the shortest possible horizontal/vertical line. Nobody said the pieces should be exactly the same size.

...

In fact nobody told anything about anything. What a shitty, vaguely written exercise.

EDIT:
Oh, wait. Then it would take 17,5 minutes to saw it into 4 pieces. Um... Let's say Marie likes to think outside the box and saw things not according to any rules.

i was listening to this while reading that tiger comic, it worked so well.

anyway FREE GAMEZ

EDIT:
Oh, wait. Then it would take 17,5 minutes to saw it into 4 pieces. Um... Let's say Marie likes to think outside the box and saw things not according to any rules.

let's say we sue Marie for contravening several health & safety regulations by acting like a muppet with a saw. that would be preferable. silly bitch.

i think that would probably be my test answer too.

A fascinating look at how Shakespeare's plays would have been pronounced when first written, and how much funnier they would have been at the time.

[STM]

Oh man, I've looked for that documentary a couple of times since I saw it, I loved this excerpt.

[Bullet Magnet]

That presents a kind of paradox. Shakespeare: unsuitable for kids. Except that as long as they don't understand it, it's fine. But the whole point of teaching it in school is so that they do understand. And since no one ever leaves school having been taught Shakespeare competently enough to comprehend it, what's the point?

[STM]

Shakespeare is one of those things that really, you cannot adequately teach in a class of 30 kids. Also, yeah it's a great part of our history and all that, but soooo many people will just read Shakespeare so they can look down on anyone who hasn't, for that reason I'm not hugely interested in it.

Besides they're plays, they're meant to be watched not read.

[Bullet Magnet]

Which is why English class is the wrong class for Shakespeare.

Still, if we'd been taught that we were going to learn how to enjoy raunchy smut without anyone knowing while looking totes high-brow, I think those lessons would have gone down better.

Does anyone know a good MIDI editor?

I'm using Anvil Studio right now, but the impractical UI is making me physically angry. I've tried the trial version of Cubase, but it's not really the right kind of program.

[Job McYossie]

I use anvil now as well. It's so close to being just right. Are you using piano-roll type? If so, might want to check out a program called synthfont, it's got some bugs, but this has been one of my favourites. Try, if possible, to get a version before 2.0, as these versions are less attacking with the whole "If you like the free version, buy the full version!"

[MeechMunchie]

Yeah, I'm looking for piano-roll type program. There's plenty of choice, but short of installing all of them it's hard to tell which is best from screenshots.

And even for freeware, Anvil Studio is awful. I can live with obvious features being absent, but the way it insists you go through multiple menus to do simple things is ridiculous. Every time it tells me "You have to be in the Mixer menu to copy and paste bars", I go "Why!? The bar display is right there!"

[JennyGenesis]

Anybody fancy chocolate chicken curry for dinner?

[Bullet Magnet]

What happens when you throw a bag of organic waste into a volcano?

[Dynamithix]

Ooh, food porn. I love the sound effects.
