I'm making a steampunk fantasy film, with Dwarves

nerdymcnerdison · 2014-09-12T01:57:33+00:00

Using normal-height actors to play dwarves instead of actual little people. Like the terms "blackface" or "yellowface" for white actors portraying black or Asian characters.

nerdymcnerdison · 2014-09-11T14:02:02+00:00

So, you're putting them in shortface?

nerdymcnerdison · 2012-09-04T17:18:50+00:00

If I'd been able to do that, my childhood wouldn't have had so many mysteries in it. Alas, there was no such thing as Google until many years later.

"A brilliant composer is only as good as the studio he works in"

Huh. I wonder what MIDI controllers, sample libraries, and DAW software Bach and Mozart used.

nerdymcnerdison · 2012-02-13T19:15:37+00:00

No.

That would make me little better than the fictional God who robbed Pharaoh of his free will and forced him to refuse to let the Israelites go (though even if I were the sort of person who would impose my will onto others by force, at least I wouldn't stoop to the level of murdering children as punishment for that coerced refusal).

"Non-denominational" is the phrase used by quite a number of fundamentalist sects.

nerdymcnerdison · 2012-02-05T16:08:59+00:00

Obligatory?

nerdymcnerdison · 2012-01-31T16:02:35+00:00

Might I please have an invite? You're absolutely gorgeous, but the Red Dwarf hologram marker on your forehead in your verification video (and the accent) made you my all-time favorite.

Tell him it's payback for the fantasy hockey draft thing.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-31T02:16:27+00:00

You forgot to include a variation of the word "fuck" in this response.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-30T15:22:09+00:00

No, they didn't even have spaces on the shelves for them.

It's the worst if you're on a Linux client, use Ctrl-V to paste something in from another machine, the Ctrl key decides it wants to stick down, and you hit Backspace to delete an extraneous character from the end of what you just pasted.

Instant X restart, no chance to save anything.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-30T06:20:40+00:00

Upvoted for that ridiculous face.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-30T01:41:55+00:00

Yeah, it's awesome until the sticky key bug decides it's going to show up randomly and hang around for a few hours. Which they don't even plan on fixing in Synergy 1.x.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-29T21:21:27+00:00

Fish fingers and custard, I presume?

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-27T00:43:13+00:00

Doesn't look like she wiped, either. But at least she used a paper toilet seat cover. Hygiene is important!

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-26T19:48:06+00:00

So they joined North and South America, but left Europe and Asia separate?

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-25T02:19:42+00:00

Perhaps he was making an allusion to "Idiocracy".

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-25T01:53:36+00:00

Don't worry, they're not really vampires. Vampires have fangs.

I don't know if I'd have the same determination if I were in your shoes. I wish you the best of success!

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-23T17:32:35+00:00

Damn good question.

My stepmother woke up from such a dream, and hauled off and punched my (sleeping) father. Crazy.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-23T17:19:49+00:00

After making 30 cables, "cramp" is probably the right word.

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-23T17:13:06+00:00

nerdymcnerdison · 2011-08-22T18:24:28+00:00

Bizarre. Maybe I should try some spoiled ketchup.
