Drat I was outbid for both OBD pieces I wanted while I was away from the computer >.

Muu posted this first then Jenji was all ARMAGAD HAVE YOU SEEN IT!? The power of 3d programs knows now bounds, I swear. USE GOD'S HANDS! AND YOUR BREASTS WILL NOT ONLY BE BIGGER, BUT THEY SHALL NATURALLY GROW!

I'm not even kidding, Katu exclaimed: "Just like penises, if your breasts have good circulation, they GROW!"

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST YOU GUYS! (Unless you already saw the video, or were in the chat with us. Then you heard it here second, or third...).

*mesmerized by amazing growing bra*

My favourite part is that the bra itself and the lace design on it grows WITH your breasts. ~~AMAZING~~

Heading to my parent's house this morning, I managed to epically twist my ankle. And fall off the couple steps that lead to my place in the meantime.

On the plus side, I did get to my parent's house, and dad made the trip to the mall to get my favorite mall food. (Fried rice.) Then we watched Ice Age 2.

I hope I can walk ok by the time we're in London, that's in just two weeks and we'll only be there a day. *pout*

The empire strikes back

In recent weeks, we've taken huge steps towards blocking spam accounts on LiveJournal. In fact, we've suspended as many as 30,000 accounts in a single day! We've implemented several pre-emptive measures to prevent the creation of spam accounts, and we've honed our detection of suspicious content. Spam bots are a crafty lot, so we'll continue to refine our tactics and keep up the good fight to keep you safe from spam attacks on LiveJournal.

RSS feeds again

If you're addicted to xkcd_rss, icanhaschzbrgr, or other syndicated feeds, we're pleased to report that we've resolved the update error that was mucking up your RSS feeds. While content was being pulled correctly, it wasn't being posted to the feeds themselves. Late last week, we finally nailed down what we hope was the root problem, so content should post properly. We thank you for your patience.

engram_au linked this to a bunch of us in chat. She WON this year's Ukraine's Got Talent, and holy CRAP with good reason too. I welled up and got utterly engrossed in it.

Though the blonde judge's reaction WEIRDS me out. WHAT IS HER EMOTION?! The people crying in the audience though make up for her. Seriously amazing skill and speed. WHO IS JEALOUS OF HER ABILITY WITH SAND!? I KNOW I AM XD

PS: The Metallica instrumental = LOL. xD

I need to find prices but if any interest you, shout. I'm not sure if I'll put them on bpal forum or on ebay ...

EDIT: If you're reading this, our maintenance is OVER! The problem was not found on our equipment, which means we'll have to work with our ISP to fix this small problem -- which also means another maintenance window in the future -- but at least we have eliminated our side.

Thank you everyone, and a special shout out to rekoil for giving me a great suggestion AND also the opportunity to feel like I've just called in to a local radio station.

Have a great day, night or afternoon wherever you may be.

Hi everyone, sorry for the late notice but I'm going to have to do some testing on 1 of our 4 internet circuits TONIGHT; Friday night or Saturday morning depending on which time zone you're in.

Most of us shouldn't notice any impact, though there may be some slowness or lag when I switch traffic on to our other ISP circuits and then another hit when I stop the tests. If a page won't load or times out, try hitting refresh 1 or 2 times and it should load then. If it doesn't work at all... trust me, I'll be typing really really really fast to try to undo whatever I just did. Hopefully you'll have some Halloween candy (if you're in the USA and celebrate that kind of thing) nearby to take away the bitterness of a small site outage. :(

Here's the handy-dandy Website That I Always Use to get a feel for when the maintenance will start in your area. Our site traffic historically dips on Friday afternoons until Saturday morning which is why we tend to pick this time for maintenance work.

( tech details )

status.livejournal.org will, of course be updated before and after the maintenance window. Or else marta will get mad at me. :D
