The other night, I actually dreamed about Azureus and downloading. How sick is that?
Pretty damn sick, I guess, but that’s besides the point. If I have one. Which I doubt. Regardless, what I dreamt was that I came home after spending the weekend at my sister’s place, and all 46.87 gigs of Babylon 5 was downloaded. In a week. Damn me, but I should have understood that was a dream.
Anyway, when I came home today, I was surprised to se that in the three (nearly four now) days that have passed since I started the download, 10.56 gigs, or close to 22.5 % of the download was complete.
Which is pretty unusual; in comparison, it took me close to two weeks to get down all of GSG’s 12.somethingsomething gigs. So if this keeps up, I might not have to wait a month for this to finish, after all.
Oh well. Fat chance.

Hi,
don’t understand… Why is it important to get it all done at once? Why don’t you just download a couple of episodes at the time, watch, enjoy and let the computer take down a couple of more while you sleep? Azureus is good that way…

Because it’s good and he wants it all at once, I guess.

I could probably have done that, yes, but I have a lot of other stuff to watch, too. And I don’t think I’ll manage to squeeze in any B5 in the next month or so. Term papers, Angel season 5, books, comics, other shows… these things don’t do themselves, you know.

So… you’re answering Ceres question by not answering it and stating her reasons for asking it?
You’re sure you’re not considering a career in politics?

“So… you’re answering Ceres question by not answering it and stating her reasons for asking it?”
Yeah, now that you mention it, I see that I do. Weird. Anyway, I think it’s not really that important to get it down as soon as possible, except that I would like to have the show down pretty soon so that I can burn it on DVDs and free up the disc space. Which might mean that it is, in fact important to get it down as soon as possible.
Ow, my head is going all kaplooey.
“You’re sure you’re not considering a career in politics?”
I did, but then I realised that I hate people. (I’m not sure if that’s a plus or not, but I’d rather not find out, really.)

You hate people? That makes your insisting on granting their lives equal value to yours despite not believing in any form of higher order all the more confusing.

…unless you hate yourself too, of course, that’d explain it.
(Much like you’re probably hating me right now. ;D)

I might hate people, but I love humour, and right now you’re making me laugh. So I’ll let it pass for now. But if you ever stop being amusing, I’ll go right back to hating you. (Please note: The “back” does not indicate that I hated you, in particular, at any previous point in time. It merely refers to the fact that you were once included in thye great mass of unknown people that I hate or have hated at some point.)

Right-o.

Also note that all this talk of hating is merely posturing. I like people, generally speaking. But it’s much cooler to be misanthropic, and so I exaggerate these tendencies when I write stuff.
The reason why I choose to come clean about this now, is one of two possible alternatives. It’s either because I’m tired of living a lie, or that it’s nearly 2.30 a.m. and that I’m almost unconscious for lack of sleep.

I think it’s the latter, it seems stupid to stop living a lie if that’s what you’ve been living all this time; you wouldn’t truly know the consequences beforehand and could end up dying for not having the lie to live on anymore.
