…for how much of my free time the World of Warcraft expansion would take up. Posting to resume shortly.
Chapter 16 of One Hundred Days, imaginatively entitled “The Hundredth Day,” is now outlined and weighs in at 22 scenes.
Just in case someone cares.
One of the myriad reasons posting has been non-existent lately is, as my roommate could confirm, that I have been reading a very long Batman fanfiction, Cat-Tales by Chris Dee. Well, actually, the author calls it a Catwoman fanfiction, but it’s the same thing really.
Having finally finished (or rather, caught up with, since it is still ongoing) the story, I figured I might as well offer some thoughts.

It seems it is crazy antics time again, as instead of a normal release of Bleach Episode 109 they’ve released “Bleach Episode 109 FINAL” as a “co-production” between themselves and YHBT (You Have Been Trolled), the name under which Dattebayo usually releases their trolls and fakesubs.
If you’re curious about just what the joke is this time, don’t bother downloading it. Despite being 170 MB, it’s roughly two minutes long, and pretty much just consists of screenshots of their feedback Inbox filled with whining about the release of episode 109 being late, followed by the announcement that because of this there will be no release of Bleach 109.
Past experience suggests that the episode nonetheless will be out before Bleach 110 airs, quite likely sometime tomorrow.
UPDATE: The more I think of it, the more likely it seems that the puzzling actual release of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Episode 1 was intended, in combination with a known-in-advance delay in getting out Bleach 109, precisely to prompt all the “why are you wasting time subbing Pokemon when BLEACH IS LATE?” whines so they could do this.
Of course, it’s always possible that they are for once serious and won’t release Bleach 109 and that they will continue to release episodes of Pokemon, making me look like an idiot, but I’m used to that.
UPDATE 2: That was faster than I expected. Only four hours after posting the troll, Bleach 109 has appeared on Dattebayo’s tracker. Of course, knowing Dattebayo it could be part of an even more elaborate troll, but I won’t know about that until tomorrow.
So, there’s going to be a 1 TB hard drive this year. For real. Not some RAID of smaller drives that pretends to be a 1 TB drive, but an honest 1 TB drive. Not only that, but it is launching at a mere $399, which is actually a price I could imagine spending.
Yeesh. I’m not even that old, and I can remember when 1 GB was a crazy-large hard drive that probably cost around that much.
Yes, I know I just said I wasn’t going to be doing many or any episode-posts. So sue me.
Anyway, a while back famed fansub group Dattebayo announced that they were dropping Naruto in favor of subbing Pokemon Diamond and Pearl and released a fansub of the ninth episode, also stating that they would later go back and sub the previous episodes. Surprising no one who has ever paid the slightest bit of attention to their antics, this news post was a troll, and Dattebayo continues to sub Naruto to this day.
Much more surprisingly, they recently actually released a fansub of the first episode of the series. This prompted me to download and watch it, since I clearly have too much free time.
