Caffeine actually has no effect on me. And my coffee pot is kind of broken currently anyway...

@aellotyphoeus: Yeah...I totally understand that. You should give loom knitting a try! No need to worry about you work coming undone and no worries about tension! Blankets can still take a while, but they're not too bad. Depending on how busy I am, I can make a cabled baby blanket in 2-6 months.

I'm liking that first idea more...

*yawns and rolls in, wrapped in a blanket like a burrito*
I'm fighting to find the energy to wake up and do stuff before work. Need to do laundry and maybe work on some craft projects.

It should be. Hopefully.

@aellotyphoeus: No! You're good too! Better than you believe you are!
And honestly, a lot of my good stuff is either years of practice or really easy stuff. I firmly believe that after a month or two of practice, you could be just as good as me doing chainmail stuff. I still am struggling with certain weaves that I'm learning, and I have scratched or over-bent more rings than I can count. But I had managed to figure out the Byzantine weave in under a month. Still working on figuring out multi-color box chain, but it's similar to the Byzantine weave, but with one step removed.
And my loom knitting? That's 7 or 8 years of working on projects. My first couple years, I had no clue how to do color changes correctly. I only had enough confidence in my skills to actually attempt stuffed animals last year. And the scale gauntlets were a project born out of a half-assed Halloween costume idea, but I had to adapt the way of adding scales myself because it can't be done the same as for knit and crochet or the scales end up sideways. I should probably make a tutorial for it someday...

Nah, it was definitely all pics of women, so styles for women. And one or two of them were probably shoulder length or longer hair.
And like I said, I'm probably not doing anything with my hair (I can't even do braids so.....yeah) I just thought if there was some super easy punk style with an idiots guide step by step written tutorial I might try it.

@Dowan: I mean, Buffy does get a bit darker around season 4 or 5, but generally stays more light and humorous for the most part.

Why do articles lie?!
While trying to find a cool way to do my hair for Halloween (of course, I am a total hair styling noob, so I probably won't actually do anything), I find a link that is supposedly "20 different mohawks for people with medium to long hair".
Excited, I click in! Aaaand....it's 4 different "styles" (one "style" was literally just dying your hair) with 20 pictures of different takes on the styles, and almost all of them were with short hair and/or shaved sides, which is something I can't really do.
WHY DO YOU LIE TO ME? I WAS SO EXCITED!

Ah...I've only seen maybe 2 episodes of Supernatural. So....a little yes and a little no? I don't really know much about Supernatural, so I could be totally wrong, but based on the episodes I saw, it tends to lean a little more towards actual scare/creepy light horror? Whereas Buffy is just good, lighthearted teenage slayer humor and, later young adult slayer attempting to juggle college, job, and slayage, while managing to throw in the occasional sad, brings you to tears moments on occasion. (There are legitimately 3 moments in the series that make me bawl like a baby every single time.)

I uh...never read the manga. And also don't have internet at home other than on my phone, which doesn't really do videos. At all. So I can't watch it.

Also, I LOVE the Buffy series (have it all on DVD), but I kind of hate what they did to Spike as a character. He had a lot of potential and they turned him into a lovesick puppy instead.

I totally grew up watching Buffy and reading the Anne Rice vampire books. Did actually watch some Hellsing in college, but I haven't seen it in ages! It was really good though and I wish I actually owned it so I could watch it more.

Alucard! Or Lestat or Spike or literally any vampire who is actually a vampire and not some sparkly day-walking fairy leech fake vampire bullshit!

@Lunakiri: I am supremely ashamed to admit that I have read the first two books in the twilight series. BUT in my defense, it was because I lived in a small town at the time they came out and, since I was seriously checking out between 10 and 20 books per week, they wanted my opinion on them and how age appropriate they were for teens.

Dowan: I uh...don't have friends. None that I could actually get to watch it with me for mocking anyway.
