A couple of photos

First of all, I just bought a new external HDD. It's like so cute and black and silent and just nice when compared to the old one. It's 320GB. I shall name it Spinel II so it matches my red 4GB pendrive (Ruby).

I also got myself a new PS2 dualshock controller. I have no idea what I'll do regarding the Gamecube card yet. I'll go to my mom's later this week and look for it carefully.

Anyway, I said I had random photos, so here they are!



There was this life-sized goddamn Batman in the Corte Inglés department store, near the toys section (OMG Wall·e plushies so cute). It's for a kids' contest, and they can win this... giant thing. Seriously. y so srs? Now, would a kid actually want a goddamn Batman larger than them? I foresee mostly entries of adult fanboys and fangirls.

Of course, what they'd do to a Batman doll? *shudders* Creepy. And obviously, couldn't help but thinking that if they really wanted to attract people, they could've given away a Ledger!Joker. God knows everyone and their mom on fandom!secrets would love to do dirty things to a giant Joker doll. S-sob ;_;

Something prettier! My bus passes by this place on the route every day. CLAMP fans would understand why I can't help but smile:



YEAH. I KNOW. (and yes, trébol = clover) Sorry about the quality, but it was taken from inside the bus and the window reflected the sunlight. I cropped the window frame and a random passerby. I have no idea what this entrance is. It would've been awesome if it were a bar or a cafe, but it seems it might be a house.

And where would you put the giant Batman, anyway?

I've seen harddrives of 500GB and even massive things in terabytes instead of gigas. But yep, it's getting common to see HDDs of 250-350 gigas lately.

No idea, but I'm more than willing to find out if I can fill it up |Db

An anime-fan can fill as much space as they have...

320 GB??? Whoa.
*remembers when games fitted floppy disks*

Y más pruebas de que el mundo a veces es clampesco en pelotudecs.

He-he. A friend of mine has got a live-size carton Sirius Black 8))) He was standing behind the door on her birthday 8)) Fortunately, he's flat and foldable, while this kind of toy... well, it does make me think something improper 8))))

I think giant carton cut-outs are also a bit weird, but I agree this plastic statue thing is just... yeah.

Todas las paradas cercanas quedan muy lejos y está en medio de la carretera, así que me da corte bajarme del bus a investigar. Estoy casi segura que es la entrada a una finca o una casa.

And yet there are adult women who would, and that's even scarier.
