Music theory is the dumbest class.

I only keep showing up for the hot music majors honestly.

Although "Asian dude with bleached hair" has gotten a lot less exotic-seeming since I got on this network.

Seriously is everyone on here from Japantown?

Anyway I'm bored and this network doesn't require a wifi connection.

...

*sigh*

This is so stupid. I'd rather be playing violin. Or electrocuting something for science. Physics is the best. Although with all the weird crap that's going on here I'm thinking of taking more biology classes if I can fit them in. I got my first pulse echo whatever on a bio lab trip, so maybe if I go on more that'll happen again.

...

Is anyone else on this thing this morning?

Lol, Locke does seem to be a hotspot for us. If I count. [half white and the hair's also dyed.]

[soulsborderline]

I don't think it's any worse than New York but did I miss a fashion bulletin on the hair dye?

And you count, but weird eyes notwithstanding you're not exactly bringing the average down.

[espigeonage]

idk about those other guys, but I started going gray and didn't want that. And didn't just dye the afflicted spots black for Reasons.

Oh, no, I need to find more ways to stick out!

he's been pretty much skimming the entire entry's comments...

[wordsgate]

Huh, I didn't know that. But blue looks good on you!

[espigeonage]

Lol, I'd hope so! Pretty sure if it stopped being blue someone would tell me. It looks kind of different now.

[wordsgate]

Different? how?

[espigeonage]

Colors. It's still blue mostly. But a lot more shades, and not just blue. To me, anyway, probably not to normal people eyes. Hard to say if I get more second looks now, lol, I couldn't keep track of people like this before.

[wordsgate]

Oh, that's right. You see things differently now. I can't even imagine what that must be like.

[espigeonage]

Confusing and annoying, mostly - did I tell you it's hard to watch TV? - and sometimes useful. As you saw, lol.

[wordsgate]

You hadn't mentioned TV before, no. That must be frustrating... Do projected images work, like at a movie theater?

[espigeonage]

I can ignore the flickering and the screen stuff now, that's why I'm texting again! And can actually look at the Internet. But any kind of video, if it's not network stuff, it's like the framerate's gone way down. It's a slideshow.

[wordsgate]

But on the network video works?

[espigeonage]

Some of it! You notice how it tends to improve a bit on the quality of phones and webcams? And you can get video from things that don't have cameras?

[wordsgate]

I've never thought about it before, but now that you mention it, yeah.

[espigeonage]

It still kind of lags sometimes, but not as bad. More 'dropping some frames' than 'slideshow', it actually looks like something is moving. And the colors aren't all flat and weird.

[wordsgate]

That just makes me wonder how this Network actually works...

[espigeonage]

I don't think there's anyone who knows. Telepathy?

[wordsgate]

Maybe. Considering how we remember our numbers it sort of seems like it.

[espigeonage]

Hopefully it never stops being completely voluntary like this! As many people as there are here who I should know better, I prefer the old fashioned methods.

[wordsgate]

Face-to-face?

[soulsborderline]

Well you're also not an idiot teenager, so that helps.

[espigeonage]

That's a consolation! I'm an idiot 24-yr-old who *looks* like a teenager!

[soulsborderline]

You're 24?

[espigeonage]

That's right!

[soulsborderline]

Yeah I was gussing 19 this whole time, you're right.
