OK, for all the LARPers on my f-list (and there are far too many of oyu these days), [livejournal.com profile] davidnm linked to Ruthless Reviews. I think I agree with the writer on #10, and cannot fault his choice of winner. Question though; what is it with USian LARPers and those bloody stupid big swords? At least UK LARPers use swords that look vaguely realistic and have had some effort into realism (if not scale) put into them. I've alsmot bought a latex larp sword once, just because it was cool. Ah well.

[livejournal.com profile] burkesworks points to this set of style guidelines for referring to the North of England. I mean, I've been up north a few times in my life, just a small number of visits gives me a better idea than any amount of mainstream media coverage. Ah well. It's not like the Westcountry gets much better.

While trawling around looking for some stuff, I found the site of artist rkpost. He did some very good DT art, and some stuff for a few other games. I may work on a Sheriff Syn icon at some point, she always did look cool. [livejournal.com profile] shakalooloo? The thumbnails are already cropped to size, and some are very well done.

Lastly? [livejournal.com profile] james_nicoll linked to Teddy Babes (probably not safe for work. Or, indeed, sanity, but mine left years ago). Can we here an eww? Yup, thought so. Especially impressive scary is Sonya, Vampire Mistress of the Night. OMFG.

Anyway, am possibly going to write something about how cool the idea of OpenID is generally, and ClaimID as a specific, but in the meantime, an example: [livejournal.com profile] ext_15386 and [livejournal.com profile] ext_15389 are both me. The latter is the one I'm likely to actually use on occasions, the basic idea is very sound. Very scary? OpenID accounts logged into LJ can upload Userpics. Um, why?

The variety of objects that people are willing to at least attempt to have sex with is very, very large. This is why when I worked at KW Hospital, we once had a guy come in with a 2 liter coke bottle sticking out of the front of his pants.

He couldn't pull off trying not to look too bothered about his situation.
