| PYE: Mission: Science compels us to explode the sun!
|
| IDAEA: Can't we change this? I don't enjoy working in view
| of such a morbid mission statement.
|
| | PYE: But it's accurate. We're going to create a supernova
| | for the purpose of scientific progress. That's our mission.
| |
| | IDAEA: Our mission is to decide if such an irresponsible
| | feat is even possible.
|
| | IDAEA: Here's a better one. Mission: Determine if it's
| | possible to prompt the sun to explode.
| |
| | PYE: You lack a sense of humor.
| |
| | IDAEA: At least I don't lack a sense of ethics!
| |
| | PYE: Kindly refrain from going supernova on me before
| | the sun does, Idaea.

It's kind of strange that celebrating birthdays is a thing. I've heard from certain sources that there are social taboos against implying that someone is aging.
It turns out that changing your useragent to “I am a phone” will, in fact, trick websites into thinking that you are a phone.
Steam: *repeatedly starts up and shuts down*
Icelandic Waters: “Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down. Emergency. Shut down . . .”

Think about it. I cracked a joke about how Minecraft’s first raw copper texture revision looked like raw salmon, and here I am. If I had kept my mouth shut, I would never have discovered wasteof, Rain World, or Pixel Cat's End. And thanks to a brief but harrowing crisis I had in an office chair at 6:33pm, I now have a new persona with some apathetic spice!
“When people talk about traveling to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something small, but barely anyone in the present really thinks that they can radically change the future by doing something small.”

Icelandic Waters: “Do you ever have those moments where you see something interesting and feel the-” [RATTLE] “-skipshot sound effect go off in your head?”

Icelandic Waters: “. . . wait, that's known as your heart skipping a beat, a figure of speech that's been around much longer than Rhythm Doctor. Gosh, I didn't know that my internal wiring was that mangled…”
Yes, I am ashamed of myself. Like many failures, it all came about through the culmination of many smaller failures and repetitive crunch points . . .
As much as I despise bogus lies, I feel that the weird ghost slugcats that sometimes appear in Rain Meadow story lobbies when a player disconnects while passing through a pipe or karma gate are deserving of their own creepypasta lore.
Pspsps. Reminder that The Watcher will be released in 34 days. According to the what if? 2 countdown calendar, that's . . . 1000 end-to-end basketball games, or 777 hours.
Inside of every karma gate, inside of every karma gate
There is a hum, there's a hum, there's a neverending hum
And no one ever seems to notice, no one seems to notice
You have never noticed...
Never, ever, ever, ever . . . until now!
[Camera cuts to Chimney Canopy - Sky Islands karma gate]I successfully got my mom to write this notice in a workbook. I refuse to explain what I did.
Icelandic Water Dragon: *watches the first How We Make Minecraft series* “It's nice to see that everybody knows and respects the fact that Jean, better known as the Ender Dragon, is female. But could you please . . . stop . . . exaggeratedly stomping on her nose?”
Icelandic Waters #1: “Heehee, we said her name, and the universe didn't delete itself. Oh, and the Wither’s actual name is Simmons. Got no word on \(wither.pronouns[2]) pronouns, though.”
Pariki: “You can't just stay in your ledger-filled echo chamber, one soundproofed door away from the hundreds, nay, thousands of caterwauling dragons who you hold captive. The garden is the Serpent’s place. Leave your scientist’s apathy behind, and commune with nature.”
Icelandic Waters #2: “void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother void mother” *kazoo noses*
Cantiviler: “Don't you remember Randall’s principle about when ‘everybody knows’ something? If ten thousand people learn something considered common knowledge per day, nothing is ever going to become truly common knowledge.”
Icelandic Water Dragon: “On one hand, you're being a little pedantic about what I meant. On the other hand . . . touché.”
