last night could've been a little more sonic

Feb 11, 2009 08:12

I talked to Beth-from-Florida for a long while yesterday, actually made it out of the apartment, then wound up entertaining myself by figuring out how to hook up my deranged phone to my asshole car ("You clear?" "Yeah." *WHOMP!*) with the hopes of recreating my own version of K.I.T.T. None of the these things were as easy as they may sound, ( Read more... )

Sending good-health vibes your way. Yoctosecond!

Loki and That Phone are a dangerous combination. I hope you're prepared to pull the plug if this incipient Skynet attempts anything. You're humanity's only hope, Kim. *srs face*

First off, Aussies know how to rock. I have a saved draft in progress reacting to each of the songs you sent. Since I'm able to do more than just sleep now -- can, in fact, start thoughts and complete them -- there's an actual chance I'll be able to finish that letter in this lifetime. In lieu of having to send an agent back through time to do it for me, that is. As you note, those guys are going to be busy enough once Loki and my deranged phone actually decide they like working together.

*g* Well, duh.

I'd be interested in your thoughts (now I'm wondering what Deepfishy sent you!!).

And I'm at this year's national blues festival right now, so there's a blues mix in the works :).

A Katana can Do That? *contemplative look at unsuspecting phone*

I want a Science! icon.

Mine reluctantly did. I don't know WTF was up with it balking at talking to me through the left speaker without a lot of coercion. But, yes, with parts I repurposed from an old Discman, the phone's headphone jack, and lots of swearing alternating with maniacal laughter, I managed to get my Katana hooked up.

One day, I'll have an iPod and a Mini with a built-in iPod jack. It'll be good times, even if I still can't use that car as a giaganto phone. :)

loki and assbaby no doubt looked at each other and went "what fresh hell is this?" and ganged up on you because they can. sounds like some fun experimentation, tho.

a yoctosecond? yocs!

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they'd teamed up to release some sub-audible frequency which made me yurk. They're nefarious that way. It was a fun way to kill some time, though. (The experimenting, not the nausea.) I didn't have anywhere to be and I wasn't quite ready to return to my apartment...so naturally I got it in my head to see if I could make my car talk to me by way of my phone. I'm kind of weird predictable that way.

I want to read this fic now, and I'm not even a Supernatural fan!

The image of the Impala getting all sentient and Transformer-y is pure gold. I look forward to what your home-based search results reveal. Although, really, if a car is going to gain sentience at this point, it's probably Loki by way of having my deranged phone wired into like the second evil brain Loki totally doesn't need.

Bonus points for scoring the squick looks from Geeky!Guy. It's good for him, even if I'm traumatized that my phone's self-chosen name seems to becoming more and more permanent. D:

I wish two things:
1. that I'd known about the experiment before hand.
2. that I could carry a tune.

I'd have started in on Queen tunes just to fuck with Loki.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear about the yarfling.

Katana + Taurus (car or driver) = One confused Kat (who wondered how the hell said caller got her call to bounce off a satellite). *cackles*

That my asshole car and I share an astrological symbol never stops entertaining me. It's about as appropriate as such things can get. One day, though, I would love to go for ironic and have a Mini. *wistful*

I was pretty surprised to find myself doing the technicolor yawn for all of last night and still fighting it today. Stupid meds.
