I realise I have used the same icon for every reply again. Don't tell me off, I'm just being lazy XD

What is Speed? You know, I don't think I ever threw playing cards like Gambit - maybe it was because I didn't have X-Men cards! XD they sound cool <3

(I can't believe I didn't have a lunch box! Or did I? I'm gonna ask my mama XD)
(come to think of it, they we're all fighting action. Um, Wolverine had a little switch on his back that made a bit of his chest flip. So it would be NORMAL WOLVERINE CHEST - flip the switch - WOLVERINE CHEST WITH CLAW WOUNDS DOWN IT.
I can't remember Sabertooth's D:. Gambit had a button on his back - when you pressed it his leg went all KICK YOU! and fighty XD Before the X-Men I had Power Rangers toys. I used to make them fight *blushblushblush*. Wolverine and Gambit were the reason Red Ranger's leg was never the same XD)

You know what? I totally understood your game description, and I TOTALLY wanna play!
I need a deck of cards ...

(I HAVEN'T ASKED HER YET. I MIGHT CALL HER TOMORROW THOUGH.)

YUCK at the pink ranger (Katrina? XD). But YAYWIN to pteradactyls!
(and OH yeah. TBH for me that was the ONLY Power Rangers! I remember making my first ickle school friend when I missed an episode one morning (it used to be on before school) and we thought it would be grown up for him to help me catch up XD I always loved Tommy, but ESPECIALLY when he was the green ranger. He had his cool flute and NO ONE knew if he was a good guy or a bad guy ^-^)
(BEST HALLOWE'EN COSTUMES EVAR! Apart from this year's, of course XD)

hurrah! it's such a fun game lol i should try and get my brother to play it with me sometime.

(DOOOO IIIIT)

xD i know, she was so lame (whatever he name was xD) i changed to being a big Black Ranger fan, although pteradactyls are STILL my favorite dinosaur
(THEY WERE HUGE. AND WHEN THEY WEREN'T FLYING, THEY WERE QUADRUPEDAL. THEIR LEGS WERE TWENTY FEET LONG. THAT'S FREAKIN =HUGE=)

*cough*

ya, i used to have a big ol' crush on Tommy xDD i remember, my brother was SUPER popular because my mom made the costumes for us, and she made the White Ranger costume when the character was bran-spankin-new so there were NO White Ranger costumes to be had anywhere lol all the kids were jealous of us XDD

(i should see if my mom still has pictures of us in those costumes~ you'd get a kick out of us xD)

TWENTY FEET LONG. Scary huh? When I've nothing better to do I tend to daydream out of the window, because we live on a very cool long road-street-thing, and whenever I need my daydreams to keep me awake I try to picture dinosaurs walking down the street. I CAN'T DO IT because they're TOO BIG. I CANNOT COMPUTE.

Funniest thing is that my mum used to have a girly crush on him too ^o^ I think she only really said it to humour me, I'm not sure, but we still reminisce fondly ^o^ That bother's poplarity thing is great XD

Y'know, I can't remember dresing up for Hallowe'en, erm, EVER. Hallowe'en here is not NEARLY at all SLIGHTLY like (how I think it is) over there, and that makes me real sad -.-

terrifying! the craziest thing for me to think about with dinosaurs is what the world had to have been like to support that kind of mega fauna~ huge reptilian creatures?? the plants, the insects, everything had to be HUGE D: and it says alot for how bountiful the planet must've been, to support all that hugeness for so long. GOD dinosaurs are so COOL

*cough* < / lame science-tastic fangirling ( ... )

Another stupid moment but I never considered the necessity of mega-fauna. That's nothing short of amazing to imagine.

UCK, I notice that with kids nowadays too. Everything is all vodka and mobile phones and omg-i-saw-a-seven-year-old-in-a-short-skirt-with-heels-yesterday, and none of them stop to think "Wow, if something perfect existed outside of this world, what would it be?". You're right, childhood just isn't fun anymore.
MY kids will be dressing up for Hallowe'en! I had my first Hallowe'en party last year and I'm not going back to my old ways! XD

THAT IS BECAUSE I AM A LEGEND AT INBOX-VIOLATION.

Either that or I'd get confused if I left gaps between replying.

NEVER BE AFRAID OF SPAMMING ME WITH NERDERY, I LOVE IT.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH EM GEE Naoto, did you hear about the Ida thing???? There's a bunch of scientists saying that its importance has been stupidly exaggerated but EXCUSE ME, I am a lay-woman, HOW IS THAT EXAGGERATED?
(the bit of time that especially fascinates me is that b it between the "end" of that dinosaurs and the birth of humankind. FASCINATES. I'm not going to pretend to know enough to try and sound smart, but I find it all SO interesting O.O)

*NOT APOLOGISING FOR NOVELLA*

I'm worried about the next generation of chldren/people. And the phrasing sounds stupid but I'm not joking. I can't imagine how it's going to change us.

"i was able to teach myself so many things and observe people and come up with ideas and things all on my own without being crushed under the weight of the world"

I still fight to keep that feeling alive in myself *blushblushblush*
