The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

[Zephyrus]

Well I got a nice morning pick-me-up this afternoon. I was just taking a shower, and while toweling off at the end I lift the towel from my right leg to find a house centipede on me. I jump in horror, and it falls down onto the tub, not moving. I thought it was dead at first since I didn't have my contacts on, but I later found it alive (minus a few legs) and trying in vain to escape the tub. What the fuck was this thing doing in my towel!

Perhaps the towel was damp and it was attracted to moisture?



Anyway, finished the GRE. Did great on the English, not too good on the Math, but not terrible.

Let's battle.

Lets! As soon as I finish my team...

 

[Caecius]

Watching the MLG DC Starcraft II matchups and there are some really good games. I'm surprised I have been watching it this long(3-4 hours).

EDIT: ^^^That avatar is awful.

 

[Vimana]

I have a ridiculous amount of EV trained Pokémon ready to go.

 

[Caecius]

Jolteon is the best EV evolution.

 

[Windie]

^hurr durr herpa derpa


EV training is boring as shit.

 

[Vimana]

But it has the best results. I'm about done EV training my mew. It's got a neutral nature, so I'm training it in speed and HP.

Eh. I wouldn't say Jolteon is the best Eevee evolution. I think it's a tie between Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon.

Espeon and Jolteon make great sweepers, having great speed and special attack stats. Only difference is Espeon has recovery moves. Umbreon makes a great tank, and it has access to a good recovery move as well. Leafeon has great offensive stats and is a great physical tank. It also has access to recovery moves, which make it even more useful. Vaporeon has an awesome special attack stat and a great HP stat to make it last long enough to get some good hits in. Oh yeah, and did I mention aqua ring?

 

[Windie]

You got to have the right nature. It's so important.

 

[Vimana]

Luckily for Vaporeon, HP is a stat that is not affected by nature. It can have amazing HP and special attack at the same time. It's a non-issue with Espeon, though, since it has calm mind. Umbreon also has curse, which takes care of its attack and defense. Leafeon has swords dance to boost its already awesome attack power. Jolteon falls short in the respect of support moves.

 

[Windie]

You lost me at calm mind...

 

[Vimana]

I should also add that sucker punch makes up for Umbreon's lack of speed (especially after it has used curse six time, to completely minimize its speed but maximize its attack and defense).

 

[Windie]

Indeed! Does Umbreon know any GOOD dark moves?

Playing Mount&Blade instead of studying. Soon, drinking.

Looking at Canon lenses.

I want the 100mm Macro IS L because it is a great Macro (1:1) that doubles as a portrait lens. But now I am looking at the MPE-65 because of the possible 1x-5x magnification. Obviously the MPE is the better Macro, but that's all it is... so... choices. That however doesn't mean that the 100mm is bad for Macro; ultimately it's a case of good versus great - the only thing here is the mpe has one use while the 100mm has more.

Dark pulse is the strongest one it knows. It doesn't have the special attack to make it useful, though.

 

[Windie]

Ah... Im still waiting for my Eevee rock evolution.


@Pessimism: That is a fucking awesome pic!

 

[Vimana]

Let's do a 3 on 3 battle. A flat battle.

 

[Windie]

I don't have a team. My storyline team for HG isn't even finished.

 

[Vimana]

Blah. Want an adamant Bagon born knowing dragon dance and dragon claw?
