Well, not everyone has access to a beach or desert...

I know that "What is Love" is a real song. The music video is rather interesting. I think his lover is a vampiress or something.

Furthermore, some bands and companies are completely responsible for certain memes while in most cases, the source of the meme is someone on the Internet making a video to go along with the song. For instance "Nyan" (pronounced with the y as a consonant, not Nie-yan, like some idiotic celebrities do) was a Vocaloid song.

Did you know that the British sold sand to the Arabians?

I hate Nyan cat. I do, however, LOVE the Fry from Futurama meme. Although I'm not sure if they're actually funny, or I have no taste.

Looks like I missed some stuff about sand, eh?

The internet is full of stupid stuff. Except not all of it is stupid.

Watching "Touch"

And I'm touching my watch. Egads it's nearly 10 o'clock!

I've been known to waste a good bit of time reading memes.

Sniped!

I wish that I could get an English/Spanish or even English/Japanese Vocaloid 3. Currently, I am broke and they don't make those.

!0 PM is nothing, its now 1:34 AM

Wow, thanks, Astronelson! That's being saved to the harddrive .

Also, Prince Fielder to the Tigers? Thank you, Baseball Gods!

Heh. Well, when I was your age, I thought 1:34 AM was nothing, too.

You'll find it's different once you finish college and start working. You can sleep through class, skip it, or be groggy in it and go back to sleep afterwards... but when you have to be at work in the morning you have to be there and you have to be awake, so staying up to ungodly hours is simply no longer an option... even on the weekend.

Then again, I'm a bit extreme. I go to bed at 10:30-11 because I need to get up at 7:30 in the morning and I need my sleep. Most people my age stay up until midnight or a bit later and some have to get up earlier than I do... but the difference is, they all drink coffee to compensate for lack of sleep. Me, I can't stand the taste of coffee (and caffeine does not wake me up), so I have to be naturally awake in the morning.

You're welcome, NMUSpidey.

Following in the footsteps of big daddy Cecil.

[Duke87 1,070]

(7187)

Fielder is a very appropriate name for a baseball player!

[astronelson 339]

7188.

Or cricketer.

[Larks2242 251]

7189.

Nah, more MLB

[Duke87 1,070]

(7190)

Well, cricket does have fielders, too...

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

7191

I think either would be okay, but I understand MLB/NPB, so...

Yup, but apparently Cecil and Prince don't get along all that well...

[AdoxxBE 289]

7192

We don't play cricket here, the only thing we do is running after a football like madmens.

[RipRap 4,400]

7193

Well, yeah, basically

[Duke87 1,070]

(7194)

Speaking of football, apparently the super bowl will be streamed live online this year.

But the commercials will be different, so booo.

[Larks2242 251]

7195.

It always is.

[RipRap 4,400]

7196

Everything is always not the same...

But boo I won't see the American ads because of CTV ads in Canada.

[astronelson 339]

7197.

I don't often see ads.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

I read Duke's post and thought, "YES!" Then I kept reading and felt like, "Aw dang." I still may wake up in the middle of the night to watch it.

Don't even get your hopes up about that. It will be streamed on NFL's website and on NBC's website, but knowing the way these things work I would presume it will probably not be available to viewers outside of the US ("licensing issues" and all that).

EDIT: Actually, apparently the NFL.com stream will be available worldwide. But the NBC stream will be US-only.
