I just watched Episode 1 of Planet Earth II, and it's fucking awesome.

I thank all British people with a TV licence for allowing me to just go in with a VPN and steal your quality content.

And continuing this train of thought, the penguin sequence was phenomenal.

Island with 2.4 million penguins

I CANNOT HANDLE THIS:

Its official. Laurentus is trying to murder us with cute.

Just got back from my first convention. It was fun. Information down below.

More information

Alright so I actually went and cosplayed (I cosplayed Asebi Inoue from Ben-To). The night before I basically worked on my legs (I was wearing a Skirt, as the character is a female), which took forever (but I did it!). Then I woke up around 6, got up around 7 and got ready. At 8:30 I was picked up and went off to the con.

We got there around 9, but didn't go in until 9:30, as I had to put on my makeup (which was fantastic!). We got in and the con started at 10:00, so I paid my $5 and we went in. I'll be honest during the first half that I was there (we left to get some food and came back about 30 minutes later), I wasn't having fun. In fact I was a bit down and felt a bit sad...I just wasn't having fun and felt like coming and doing everything I did might have been a mistake. I was thinking that maybe I'm just not the type for Cons and this kind of stuff. So we went back and I found a few of my friends, who had shown up. I ended up hanging out with them, and I had a better time. (Prior to this I knew no one and I do not socialize with people well if I don't know them, so I was hanging around the guy I came with and the people he was with. I felt extremely out of place with them...)

So when I was with my friend they were having some fun and there's this chick cosplaying Grell Sutcliff, who came by me and said something like: "I know you're a guy, and you're cool." or something like that (I remember it had something to do with me being a guy and being cool or someshit like that. Neither of us remembered exactly what was said.). So I end up hanging out with her, and the rest of my friends. I had a bit of fun too. The person that was cosplaying Grell wanted to take a photo with me (which made me really happy.). I also had a guy, who does some photography stuff take some photos of me (He said: "I don't know who you are, but you look interesting so do you mind if I take your photo." I explained who I was and said sure.). That made me rather happy, TBH. A few friends of mine said my cosplay was really good, and that my makeup was "on point". One of my friends said I should have entered the competition and could have placed top-5 easily. Maybe I'll do it next year

But yeah, I had a fun time near the end, sadly the guy I rode with wanted to leave because everyone he wanted to talk to had left, so I ended up leaving before any of my friends about an hour before the con actually ended. I didn't really want to go, and I was a little annoyed I didn't get any more pictures of me in cosplay. I might post some pictures of me from the Convention once I get a copy of the pictures that guy took of me

Awesome, congrats!

That spam war was ridiculous.

Edit: Am I being throttled or anything? Wintreath is loading much slower than usual.

I made 96, so ha!

There is no war in Ba Sing Se.

Ick. Reminds me of when our forum was attacked by some bastards from the AZ. Had to shut it down for a while to delete and fix the damage

I don't think anyone's being attacked...it looks like it's all Zetaboard forums, so it's probably an issue on their end. Thing is, 90% of regions use Zetaboards as their forum of choice.

It's usually either Zetaboards or Proboards.
