Alright, so I've got back into my writing. It's only a short piece, but I don't think I could have added any more to it, even if I wanted to. I threw this piece together on the train ride to university, and I'm hoping to find some way to better my writing, so criticism and comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I felt like a bandage, ripped from a raw wound and cast aside, devoid of use and meaning. My broken body lay below me. Part of me could still feel its aches and tremors. But it was too late for it now. I watched my own eyes close from the outside, felt my conscious self ebb into nothing. And yet, I was here. I was there and I was here.

Was this how it was meant to happen? It seemed so unceremonious, so unimportant. Like an afterthought. Passing in passing. My life had surely been more important than this. My ringed fingers, my scarred face. Even the limp that I wore, like a trinket of honour. I’d lived a great life. I’d left my mark upon the earth. It was as clear as the liver spots upon my hairless scalp.

A door opened. Light filtered into the room. Indistinct voices rang through the air. Screaming and shouting. I felt afraid. I didn’t want to go. I wanted to stay with the elderly gentleman at my feet. We still had so much to share…

Hands closed around my torso. Powerful and yet gentle. I didn’t want to leave, why would I want to? There was so much to leave behind. I felt myself being pulled forcibly from my safety. Painfully. Choking sobs wracked my frame. I was leaving. I stared down at the prone figure at my feet, properly, for the last time.

I felt like a bandage, removed at least from a healed wound. The weary body lay below me. Part of me could still feel her aches and tremors. But it was too late for that now. I felt my eyes open, felt my conscious self awaken. And yet, I was here. I was there and now I was here.

Was this how it was meant to happen? It seemed so unceremonious, so unimportant. Like an afterthought. Passing in passing? My life surely had to be more important than this. My ringing ears, my scared face. Even my body was limp, like the blanket upon her. I’d live a great life. I’d leave my mark upon the earth. It was as clear as the freckles upon my hairless scalp.

A door opened. Sound filtered into the room. Indistinct voices rang through the air. Screaming and shouting. I felt afraid. I didn’t want to go. I wanted to stay with the tired woman at my feet. We still had so much to share…

Hands closed around my torso. Powerful and yet gentle. I didn’t want to leave, why would I want to? There was so much to leave behind. I felt myself being pulled forcibly from my safety. Painfully. Choking sobs wracked my frame. I was leaving. I stared down at the prone figure at my feet, properly, for the first time.

“Congratulations, Mr and Mrs Smith. You’re the parents of a brand new baby boy.”

Next code:  H. .HC X,OO CFCV DVQDI BY,W D.EC

Think I've got it.

Answer: No one will ever crack this code
Lizard Dude coded it by looking at the keyboard letter two below the letter, not including the number keys or the space bar. It loops around as well; for example, the first letter, N, is H because it loops back through Y then to H.

I'm not in a very code-y sort of mood, someone else want to provide one? If I'm right that is.

THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG

The trick if you don't have a keyboard with no ghosting issues whatsoever is to connect two keyboards to your computer at once, which is how I generated the above.

Microsoft Sidewinder X4 here. Practically made for this thread.

It's not 2006 anymore. Internet Explorer is for the most part a decent browser (though I'm hoping it'll be IE10, which looks like it'll be a fair bit better).

Have you put in any aftermarket graphics cards? I'm assuming that your PC model is the HP Pavilion a6600z since that's what came up on Google, and that PC comes with either a GeForce 6150SE or 9300GE, both of which are horrible graphics cards for gaming. Purchasing a better graphics card, and maybe more RAM, should help the cause.

Yeah, it's one of those things where you live and learn. My ex basically used me and my wallet as a rebound from her ex, and got back with him within two days of me breaking up with her. I'd found out later she'd cheated on me when we were still together. But ultimately, though I felt guilty at first, you know you've made the right decision, and you get better at picking things in time when you know they're not working.

Been browsing TMK for several years, but I joined in December 2004, in the aftermath of the marioguy/jon unpleasantness. I was a naive 11 year old back then, hard to believe how the years have flown...

And here I was thinking they'd make a new game in the vein of SMB2. Nintendo, I am disappoint.
