UM round 11, bookmarklet.

Arrow Sunday, October 9, 2005 @ 7:30 pm

More subconscious thoughts (i.e., when it says _____, I think _____):

  1. Quirk :: Oddity.
  2. Crystal :: Stone, gem.
  3. Pet Peeve :: Traffic.
  4. Cuban :: Cigar.
  5. Breasts :: Tissue.
  6. Whispers :: Soft, lips.
  7. Complicated :: Taking forever to do/figure out.
  8. Promise me :: That you’ll stay forever.
  9. Murder :: Death, killing.
  10. Filament :: A really thin string.

Edit: As of tonight, my newest pet peeve is the coffee machine in Duke. Even though it’s out of cups, it still dispenses the coffee and takes your money … and then you’re screwed ’cause no cup = no coffee. It normally wouldn’t be so bad, but it’s 1 am and I still have to do evil sketches for typography (at 8 am). Grr.

And, per Brian’s request, want an easy way to change & to & in your posts? All you have to do is copy a few lines of javascript into a bookmark, and when you have a textarea with unconverted &, just click your new bookmark and watch the magic happen.
