OOC: Potentially Whiny Part Deux. Also, Television. (RL, Apartment Things)

The wonderful thistle_chaser reminded me of things tonight, inadvertently. As in, home stuff.

This problem is not with my building, technically, but I don't know how my building would even handle it. It used to be just a weekend thing where the very strong smell of marijuana would come into my apartment on maybe a Saturday night. Or a holiday. I don't know which ( Read more... )

Oh man, my apartment has the same problem. Smells go through the vents, so if anyone smokes (or cooks or doesn't shower) it comes through to my apartment. D: Worse that you're allergic!

I've not heard of any of those shows! Are they on BBC America or PBS or somewhere else? (Except Downton Abbey, I've heard of that one and really want to try it.)

Sometimes the cooking smells are nice though. XD Then of course I REALLY WANT THE MEATLOAF I do not have ingredients for. XD

I know Downton Abbey was on PBS or going to be. It's very good! I've watched an episode and a half (paused the second midway to finish in the morning. XD) and it's all very interesting. Probably weird that it gives me all kinds of inspiration too for my elves' backstory but it IS a show about a noble house. XD

Bought the DVD for Suburban Shootout S1 for $4 on Amazon. XD So hilarious! Wallander is also on DVD, but a bit more pricey. It's two short, 3-episode series right now like Sherlock. 90 minute episodes.

Doctor Who is definitely on Netflix. All the way up to the series 6 finale. :D

Ah oops, Doctor Who I had known, too! *cough*

My neighbors make only Indian food, which unfortunately I don't like. The smells are more interesting though! You'd think if I didn't like the taste I wouldn't like the smell...

I'm going to check out Downton Abbey when I have time!

Seeing Loki in your icon always makes me happy. :)

Yessssss. Join the Whovians. We have cookies yesterday!

I've never actually had indian food. Which you would think I would have since my ex was technically indian. Culturally. >_> They weren't from india but his mom and grandmother could speak the language, watched the films, and made the traditional food even though they were from a country in South America. I don't even. I wondered if I MIGHT like it because I am a sucker for unreasonably spicy food.

And yay Loki 5eva. :D

Argh...I hate it when that happens. Where I live I can literally -hear- anything going on in the side and upstairs apartments. We don't get the smell problems in here, but that is mainly because we don't have central air conditioning and the only vent is in the kitchen. My boyfriend's apartments is a whole different story. >.<

I have been wanting to watch Downtown Abbey, it sounds like a pretty interesting show. The Legend of Korra was the first show I actually watched after both Once Upon a Time and Criminal Minds ended, so I am now looking for new stuff. =P

And I am glad to hear that your only sport injuries to date are still raiding induced ones! xD <3

Yes! Downton Abbey is wonderful. :D If you have any noble characters at all or know any, it is an incredibly inspiring little resource on top of just being an awesome show. Maggie Smith's character is the old lady I aspire to be. Dowager Countess of SASS. XD

And yes, Warcraft will continue to be my only sports injuries, hopefully. XD

Now I totally need to watch this! For science! I mean..rps and writings...xD

The House Sunmist was something of minor nobility (although if you ask Valestiel she'd totally tell another story where they had the BIGGEST STATE EVER!!! And raised the BEST DRAGONHAWKS EVER!!) lol =P

Also, Maggie Smith is pure win, so another reason to watch it! <3 And my brain is all over the place...>.>
