Christmas is coming and the Rax is getting crazy~

Oh Christmas, how I hate the way you happen in the middle of winter. If I lived in the tropics this totally wouldn't be a problem. Anyway, christmas is on the way and I go cards etc. to do and...my tablet has finally died. It was staggering along okay, but now you have to rub it vigorously with the pen for a minute before it will respond at all, and if you take the pen off for more than a few seconds it looses the connection again. Maybe a last ditch reinstall will fix it buuuuuut I don't think so. So if you were expecting your digital picture finished for christmas, it's probably gonna be more like february. Sorry :<

You know what stupid thing annoys me? When people get adoptable pets that have "good" and "evil" final forms, name them after a charcater that is clearly either good or evil, and then don't rig the feeding to make sure they end up the right alignment. This is vey seriuos business! You could end up with a good Darth Sidious and a bad Princess Leia! THE ENTIRE FABRIC OF REALITY IS IN DANGER HERE

Also meme from Kentrin:
"Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you. Then put this in your own journal, and spread the love."

ALSO ALSO I has your free arts from the meme done, but my sketchbook is in the airing cupboard after a tragically hilarious spittake accident.

It's a big cupboard where the hot water tank for the central heating lives, and it has rails and shelves and stuff to dry clothes in. Also sketchbooks.

Why I like Icarus, a Treatise by Doctor Rax R.A.D.
Because you never sit around saying "oh if only I was _____ then I could do _____, you just get up and do what you can and it comes out awesome. Because you always give people a fair chance before judging them. And because you make me laugh so hard cream soda goes up my nose which cleaned my sinuses out beautifully :D

HOW DID I MAKE YOU SNORT SODA THIS TIME

i think this drying cabinet may be an invention only you guys have. i've never heard of or seen one in the states. i think we just sort of hang stuff outside if we can. WAIT. is it cause you are in england and the weather really *is* that stereotypically misty and murky all the time? i thought that was just for dramatic effect in movies!

DOCTOR EVIL SHEEP

Nope, it really is foggy all the time from october round to march. When it isn't raining. So I guess we had to invent airing cupboards because hanging things outside just made them wetter.

sense made. it's pretty dry around here this time of year except for snow, so there you go. provided your laundry isn't dripping wet when you hang it most places stateside, it probably dries before it freezes.

though mostly we just all use dryers so i'm kind of huh on the idea of such a thing still existing. YOU CRAZY BACKWARDS BRITS WITH YOUR FUNNY SPELLING AND WEIRD WAY OF TALKING GOD WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE

and oh god dr evilsheep made me laugh so hard when it fell out of my brain |3 i almost always wind up drawing sheep when i feel sick. I DUNNO WHY.

Oh we do have dryers, but they don't get the clothes completely dry because the air is so wet. So an airing cupboard is pretty useful.

WELL AT LEAST WE DON'T WASTE TEA AND FAIL TO CATCH TURKEYS DAMN COLONIALS

Oto explained it down below but is too technologically challenge to reply to the right post. BASICALLY OUR COUNTRY IS JUST THAT WET.

Hurrr hurr Christmas we should relocate it to be in the middle of a better month, say, January so it's even colder? :B

And...what? People give adoptables alignments now?
Why not give them stats also and special attacks and different classes and limit the number of possible adoptables to force tactical variety and have them fight against each other and gain experience, which leads to development and specialisation.....
oh wait, that's been done.

Yeah, I can see it being interesting if it actually did something, but it's just cosmetic. GOOD THINGS ARE PALE COLOURS, BAD THINGS ARE DARK COLOURS.

I like you because you're friendly and amusing and I learn stuff from listening to you. Plus you always looked after me when I was an idiot on sabrous :3

Ooooohooooohooooohmeeeepleeeeasemissmeeee!!

A tumbledryer doesn't work properly here, due to the dampness of the air. The sensor compares air humidity and wetness of the clothes, and so wet air means it doesn't dry things well, and we have this great big heat source, so why not use it? Plus, it allows you to dry things that can't tumble, like sketchpads and Rax.

Also, making evil Optimus Prime is a SIN!

I KNOW WHAT A TUMBLEDRYER DOES you replied to the wrong post |B

It irritates me so much, if you really like a character enough to name your adoptable pet after it, then why wouldn't you put some thought into things like WHAT SPECIES IT SHOULD BE and WHAT ITS PERSONALITY IS. urg.

I like you because you are so old and green. Like a bean. And also because you look after me when I get crazy and all but you know that stuff right?

How kind!

I like you because you have a huge smile, and squirt people you don't like with water. Also, can I be a jumping bean?
