Yeah, that does sound like it could be quite useful, actually. Perhaps you could forward that email to me, if you want. My email's rbinns1992 @ gmx . com. Just remove the spaces; I fear auto-spam, haha.

Have we got anyone else joining yet?

I can't help finding this exercise difficult as there are no prompts - I have to write whatever jumps into my head. It just so happens to be the fact that I'm finding it difficult.

For your next assignment, could you please provide an optional prompt for the creatively taxed individuals? I may then be able to submit my assignment much sooner.

All my 'real life' commitments seem to be heavily affecting my creativity levels.

A little short, but I think I included everything.

Quote:
Copyright lawyers are an affected lot, and the effect of their affectedness comes to the fore when they interact with their clients. Everyone around them can't help feeling slightly oily after less than an hour in the presence of the lawyers' schmoozing and rambling claims of importance. Still, they're more tolerable than personal injury lawyers, who thrive on your misfortune. Due to the nature of their careers, personal injury lawyers often find themselves consigned to loveless existences. This is because most people prefer their ambulance chasers in the form of golden retrievers.

Thanks guys. That's awesome. As for new people, someone sent in the quiz and never posted in the thread, so I guess I can count him out. XD

That's okay; don't worry about it. I've been known to do the very same thing.

I also got another quiz today from one IsolatedMadnessRP. Wilkommen in der Wahnsinn! (Welcome to the insanity!)

Here's mine. I think I did it right...

How do I explain TVtropes.com? Well, there are several ways to go about it, but it's hard to say anything about that site that's shorter than a paragraph. TV Tropes has a strange effect on me. I can't help getting sucked in by all the links, and then I realize I've spent much more time than I planned. If you're going to look around, make sure your brain is prepared. Two clicks will turn into twenty.

What is the significance of being a Massachusetts Jew? razz
PostPosted: Wed Jun 16, 2010 9:12 pm


The accents are different. New Jersey Jews (especially my aunt) tend to sound like Fran Drescher. Further north, we sound more like Kennedys. XD

Anyways, great job on the assignments, everyone who's still active. Now to come up with new content. Daaaamn.
