My Avatar Is Loading Just Fine, Thank You

My avatar is loading just fine, thank you

I'm actually not a big fan of April Fools' Day. It's like I'm on edge the entire day. Always watching for some crazy thing to hap-- WHERE DID THAT ANVIL COME FROM

Always watching. Good, I'm out of range in case he points that water hose at me. Always vigilant. Okay, Google's site preview shows the site is fine. Always two steps ahead. I saw that shadow from behind the door, you can come out now. 

In the end, however... always paranoid.

The best April Fools' Joke: Legitimately release something totally awesome at midnight. Watch as people squirm for 24 hours, possibly more. That just sounds amazing... and totally better than what I'm doing.

How did you come across your current universal avatar?

Near the bottom of this page, after I first discovered the site and flipped through random pages for hours on end.

Take a guess at what I haven't been doing lately! (hint: the answer is anything involving other people)

Public service announcement: A dictionary is not an authoritative source on the set meanings of words, but rather a report on how words are used by people. No, seriously. Words change meaning over time, and definitions aren't set in stone; dictionaries adapt to reflect this.

More thought processeses

*Setting: small dorm room with a sink*

Me: I should brush my hair now.

*gets out hairbrush, looks out window*

Me: Wow, it's a pretty day outside! I should open the window.

*leaves hairbrush on side of sink, opens window*

Me: Ahh, fresh air.

*glances back toward sink*

Me: That's right, I was doing my hair.

*walks back, glances at computer*

Me: I should probably turn that music up a little.

*taps volume once, notices water bottle*

Me: I'm thirsty.

*drinks water*

Me: That's better. What was I doing--

*glances at sink*

Me: Drat, I forgot again!

*walks back, glances at other toiletries*

Me: I should probably shave as well. After I brush my hair, of course.

*picks up brush, train passes by*

Me: Can't hear my music very well at all... maybe I should turn it up again?

*walks over to computer, notices stuff lying on shelf*

Me: Hold on, I should put that in my pockets.

*walks over to shelf, puts stuff in pockets*

Me: There. Now what was I doing again--

*noise stops, train has already passed*

Me: Oh yeah... guess I don't need to turn the music up anymore.

*glances back at toiletries*

Me: That's right, I should shave.

*walks over to sink*

*notices hairbrush*

Me: NOT AGAIN WHAT THE HECK

Keepsakes

There's a weird pocket in the top right corner of my browser that houses a mishmash of various urls. It's called the "Other Bookmarks" folder, and despite its generic name, its contents are carefully chosen. If I deem it intelligent, hilarious, thoughtful, unique, or otherwise extraordinary, it receives the honor of being inside. (The only anomaly is the end, to which is appended the next video in whatever series I'm watching; this is hardly an exception, however, as I wouldn't be watching it if it weren't somewhat entertaining.)

Okay, so perhaps I made it sound better than it really is. But I thought to myself: Why do I do this? To reread them later? No, because I almost never do that with anything. To show them to other people? I rarely get the chance to do so. So why not post them?

Here are its current contents. Be warned that some of these may be disagreeable, distracting, or NSFW.
