• 12:34 @laverneshow Wooo! :D #
• 13:24 Just fired up my AIM account to realise I don't know who half the people on it are... now I remember why I stopped using it. #
• 13:25 I should probably stop being so neurotic and scared of signing on, really... #
• 13:27 It's just whenever there's someone I want to talk to on there's always 9 people I've no idea who they are and they're sure to decide to chat #
• 13:27 Also it's been so long since I went on AIM D: #
• 13:28 I realise I'm fucking stupid BTW #
• 13:29 See now: Brad's online, but so is "linkherotime13", whoever the hell that is (not that I'm going on now - I'm going out in a sec) #
• 21:12 @capax_ @battlewaffles @ameallen fine - I'll use my mac.com one (even though I'm not using a mac now so it seems weird) #
• 22:56 K, been going through various multi-IM chat thingies for Windows. #
• 22:56 Pidgin looks like arse and Digsby doesn't do group chat - think I'll go with Trillian. #
• 22:57 I miss Adium though... one of the best things on Mac, that duck. :'( #
• 23:31 @orwellian_trash Talking to oneself isn't quite in the same league of abnormal as smearing shite on the walls, don't worry. #
• 23:33 *wishes half the posts on Anarkismo weren't in Greek, as is sure they're interesting* #
• 23:36 @Ceilidhann Hmm? #
• 23:44 @orwellian_trash You said you find it cathartic, and it's not hurting anyone - I think this is a healthy, harmless type of abnormal. #
• 23:49 @Ceilidhann This is amazing <3 #
• 23:50 @Ceilidhann LMFAO @ "horse with a cornetto paperclipped to its face" XD #

Day 12. A song from a band you hate - How You Remind Me by Nickelback

Obvious choice? Probably. Sorry Canada, but I'll never forgive you for inflicting this dross upon the world. :(

From sarshin:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4-7 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest (unless it's too troublesome to reach and is really heavy. Then go back to step 1).
6. Tag five people. Not tagging anyone, but feel free to do it anyway

Two nearby books, so you're getting a bit of both.

Because the operator function returns a reference to the istream object passed to the function, you can chain input operations together. For example:

        Account         a1, a2;

        cin >> a1 >> a2;

The wcin object is the analog to cin for working with wide-character streams (see "char and wchar_t").

C++ Pocket Reference by Kyle London

'She's great, isn't she?' said Ron admiringly. 'Always good value.'

But the smile vanished from his face at once: Viktor Krum had dropped into Luna's vacant seat. Hermione looked pleasurably flustered, but this time Krum had not come to compliment her. With a scowl on his face he said, 'Who is that man in the yellow?'
 

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling

The love you gave me nothing else can save me

Day 13. A song that is a guilty pleasure - S.O.S. by ABBA

One of the few ways in which I'm a big ol' live-the-stereotype queen - I fucking adore ABBA. My absolute favourite by them is probably The Day Before You Came or the unreleased-except-on-compilation-albums I Am The City, but out of their better known tracks it's S.O.S. all the way. The perfect example of the balance between bouncy and melancholy that was ABBA's signature. :D
