And I say to myself, what a WTF world

[taotrooper]

This has been a curious day. Let's start with bullet points:

- By this moment you all must've heard about LJ's new Russian overlords. I still don't know what to think about that soup.

- Chávez lost an election. Chávez lost an election. CHÁVEZ LOST AN ELECTION. OK, I'm sure 80% of you don't really get what's with that, and I don't feel like talking about third-world, banana republic politics, so let's leave it like this: it's something that's never happened before in the history of, like, ever. Cynical me thinks it's a matter of time before Mico-mandante says the results are not valid because... of reasons he just made up or something.

- Since I have some munny, I went and bid for a couple of Japanese artbooks on eBay Spain. The first one is the first Hiromu Arakawa artbook, we all know this one. The second is rarer, and I'm sure someone will outbid me soon: the Dra-mata, a Rui Araizumi's Slayers novel/manga artbook. But really, I had never seen this image O_O It's so cute to find art with the four main characters of the Gourry era looking all happy. And LOL at Zelgadiss blushing! XD His face is all "why the fuck is Amelia clinging to my arm?!"

Eh, I just fear the fact both bids end during a holiday afternoon around the time I'll be having lunch. I'm sort of not counting with winning any. But dammit, now I want to see all of Dra-mata scanned ;_;

- We can't find normal chocolate panettone. IT MAKES NO SENSE. Aren't we, like, two countries away from Italy? And I can't eat the fruitcake one.

... yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. :/

He's a sore loser, Chávez. He's not going to accept it happily.

Panettone~ :9 (Good luck with that and your auctions~)

*crosses fingers on Chavez business* All the news last night made it seem like he'd win for sure, I was really surprised this morning!

Thanks ^^

My family didn't believe it at first. We even called bullshit on the radio news. But really, he's never lost in his life and is known to manipulate results, so this is why it was hard to swallow even with wishful thinking.

I hope Chávez won't try any trick >__< dictators politics are always the same, everything but fair play -_-.

I had watched that image before, there are many happy Slayers illustrations... but it's ok, not many with the four main characters XDD. It has been 3 o 4 years since last time I watched Slayers >__< (Slayers Premium, it was a really funny movie XD)... mmm, I hope to have time and watch it again *_*, there's always time to renewal old classics! (Y nunca dejaré de ser fan de lo que siempre he sido fan ^^)

Zelgadiss r000lz! xD

I *hope* he doesn't, but I *expect* him to. He's known to use dead people's votes.

I watched the Try season some months ago, since I never got to see its ending. But I'm really meaning to rewatch the first two seasons because I can't remember it well and I lost some episodes back in the days.

Zel IS awesome :D Actually, they all are.

I know the feeling, the first thing every single person said after commenting on the results of the voting was "He will probably say they are not valid"

Last I knew, he had actually acknowledge his defeat, but I've also read theories of conspiracy wherein now he's proven there's democracy in Venezuela, will unleash his true plan to pull out a Castro. I'm just hoping he's not that smart. D:
