This seems to be an appropriate thing to post here all of a sudden.
ahahaha yesss I remember this from the live show!! I think. maybe I am just imagining a memory of remembering this

That's a sorta dangerous path for your descendants-to-be you were traveling there ...
that story is nowhere as ridiculous as the notion of me having descendants
(ok but imagine being a fire horse. imagine being an actual rapidash that would be so cool)

and now I went to see what element my year (which I already knew to be of the Pig) was, but apparently the year of the Pig in '95 didn't start until the end of january... MY WHOLE LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE. I wasn't born in the year of the Wood Pig, but of the Wood Dog.
you'll know where to find me.

You went to a live show too?! Aaahhh I'm so jealous! I know there's going to be one in toronto in October maybe I will get tickets? I just don't know if I want to go to toronto all by myself...

How do you figure out the element? I know I'm the year of the rat, but I've never heard the element thing before.

I don't really know how significant the element is. I remember wishing some Chinese people "happy year of the water dragon" and they were mostly confused by the "water" part.

I did indeed go to a live show! there was much excited yelling happening on my fb feed when it was revealed that wtnv would come to norway.

uhh i did some google searching?? 'chinese zodiac pig element' or something. and then some other thing to find out what I was if I wasn't pig.

this page to find out the animal, then wikipedia it to find out the element. they have some nice and comprehensive charts

I don't really know how significant the element is. I remember wishing some Chinese people "happy year of the water dragon" and they were mostly confused by the "water" part.
I used to take elements very seriously as a kid, too... I think my taking zodiacs and elements as seriously as I did came from my intense obsession with the W.I.T.C.H.-comics.........

zodiac-wise, it seems that the element does have a supposed impact on your personality though

I also used to be really offended at the norwegian name for Aquarius being 'water man', as in why MAN and not WOMAN, it felt so weird telling everyone i was a man when they asked what sign i was. in later times i've learnt that aquarius is based on the cup-bearer and god of gayness ganymede in greek mythology so. can't really argue with that.

I tell people I'm "the one that's also a disease" :P
...I can actually kinda relate to crabs though. At least the hermit crab type.

I like how aquarius is actually an air element sign, and i relate to air element

I tell people I'm "the one that's also a disease" :P

and cancer was
the Fab Crab
Spoiler: show

That and the association with wool.

i relate to air element

What does that entail?

I'm browsing the forum on a train! Technology is amazing. A six hour train ride after a day of stuff happening since 5 AM - not so much.

Eich might want to extract his cable router and dial the vac's power down a notch, then. :P

Oh no no, I can safely say that wifi is a rare treasure here. We've come a long way from dial-up though - or summoning the cable demon as we called it (due to the sound).

Iceland has the highest Wifi usage in the world, I think, at least in terms of density.
Also, there are Wifi kettles now.
This is the future.
