Cat Armor (?!)

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters!

So, once more, I was totally going to write an epic awesome post, but then totally forgot what I was going to write about and ran out of time anyways. So instead, here’s an average post.

Some people have way to much time on their hands.

How do I know this? Because somebody made some leather cat armor. You read that correctly. Battle armor. Made of leather. For a cat. The pictures are actually pretty cool, though, so you should totally check them out.

Anywho, happy Saturday! Any idea what I was thinking about posting about?

Dragon as Science

Hello, Fluffsters!

So, something that’s been making the rounds lately is a very cute message from a girl, asking a team of Australian scientists to make a dragon for her.

My question is, Fluffy, why didn’t they ask you for help researching dragons?

…What do you mean?

Well, there are dragons on your world, right?

Correct.

So, why didn’t the scientists try to contact you, to figure out about how to get one of your dragons into our world? Or at least to figure out how the science of dragons works?

First of all, you’re assuming they haven’t tried to contact me.

…They did?

No. I was merely pointing out your assumptions. I think they do not know I exist, and I intend to keep it that way.

Second, even if they did ask, I would say no.

Why? Having a dragon here would be so cool!

Since your world does not have actual dragons, I will not make too big a deal of that sentence.

Dragons from my world are not cool.

They are far more intelligent than any of us mere mortals, magical, and very unfriendly towards mortals. There are very few people who speak with a dragon, and live to tell about it.

As ridiculous as I think your world is, I would not wish a dragon on it. I therefore will not help anyone research how to make dragons, or bring one from my world.

Hm. Ok. I guess that makes sense.

Pity, though.

Well, happy Friday, folks! I hope you have an excellent weekend.

Big Box Stuff

Hello, Fluffsters! Happy Thursday!

I want to take this time to say that I am extremely jealous right now.

Oh?

Yes. I am.

Some people got a car delivered from amazon.com.

I suppose that it’s understandable to want what they got. After all, I remember reading that cars are-

-It’s not the car I care about! It’s the box that looks amazing!

Seriously, how often do you get a box that adults can make a box fort out of?

Well, since I am not actually in the tangible world right now, technically never.

…

I wasn’t asking you you. I was asking the “general” you.

The frequency is about the same, though. Not many people get epic boxes like that!

And I totally want one.

Well, happy January 9th! I hope you get the hang of writing “2014” instead of “2013” this week…

Rhythmic Songs and Games and Stuff

Hello, Fluffsters!

Can you believe we’ve been in 2014 for a week now? And I think I’ve yet to actually write the correct year on anything. Woops.

But enough about me. I have some video (and comments) for your daily procrastination does!

One of my favorite things when I was younger, which I still enjoy, are rhythm games.

For example, I’m sure you’re aware of “The Cup Song.” It’s a cutesy little song over a fun rhythm game that you can do with a cup. Here’s a video, in case you haven’t seen it yet.

Yes, that one. It’s not bad. However, I raise you by Gaelic.

…What? Can you do that?

I most certainly can. For, you see, I have found a version in Gaelic, I believe. It is also fairly impressive. In fact, I’d say more impressive than the original.

Ok. Even if your intro didn’t make any sense, I guess that is pretty cool. Possibly even cooler than the one I found.

Well, yes. That’s why I shared it, Webmaster…

Oh, so this has turned into a competition, has it?

Well, then. As another alternative game, I found a slightly more challenging one. You see, it’s got multiple patterns, and tosses thrown in. And it’s played with two stick-ish things, instead of a single cup.

Oh, yes. I remember seeing that one a while ago. That is definitely cooler than the Cup Song, in terms of difficulty. Possibly even than the Celtic version I found.

Why, Thank yo-

-But there’s also the video from the Polynesian Cultural Center, which has a slightly different tune, but some even cooler patterns.

… I’m not going to win this one, am I?

Not likely.

Hmpf. Well, Happy Wednesday, Readers! I hope you enjoy the rest of your week.

Another Podcast: Cows

Leave a reply

Hello, Fluffsters!

A reader submitted something yesterday, and it is amazing. It’s one of my favorite actors talking about cows. On a podcast.

Who is this actor, you ask?

Actually, yes. I’m not on any podcasts I’m aware of. So I honestly have no idea who you’re talking about.

Patrick Stewart. From Star Trek, Next Generation. And a variety of other things. But most recently, he is the best demonstrator of the different accents of British Cows.

If you have not listened to this yet, stop what you are doing and go there. Now. Seriously.

Ok, now that you’re back… Do you have any interesting things you want to share, to go on this blog? Just email me at webmaster [at] totalfluff.com.

I hope to hear from you! Have a happy Tuesday!

Happy (belated) Epiphany!

Leave a reply

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters! Happy Monday.

So. Something slightly odd happened in Church yesterday morning. We were celebrating Epiphany, which is the day we commemorate the wise men bringing gifts to Jesus. That’s not the odd part.

…

Wait. Fluffy didn’t interject with a “how odd.”

If I did that every time, I’d become predictable.

I guess that makes sense.

But as I was saying. The odd part was what happened when we sang “The First Noel.” (It’s a classic Christmas carol, but it talks about the wisemen. So therefore it’s epiphany.) You see, I started actually thinking about what the words were saying in verse three:

And by the light of that same star, Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a king was there intent, And to follow that star wherever it went.

As you may have gathered by my emphasis, the last part before the chorus really stood out to me. I had this image of the wise men / three kings following the star to wherever it was.

To seek for a king was their intent, and to follow the star wherever it went wise men.

The wise men 3 follow the star wherever it WENT… including Space.

…Hold on.

Yes?

You drew a picture of “wise men three” with individual rocket packs? In space?

I understand that the physics probably doesn’t(? Don’t?) work. But the song does say that they followed wherever it went.

…

You have a very odd perspective.

Thank you, I think.

Well, Fluffsters, happy Monday! To any of you starting classes, I hope they all go well! And I hope to continue to provide you with a daily dose of ~~procrastination~~ stress relief! I hope you have an excellent week.

Secret Dungeon, anyone?

Leave a reply

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters.

I have decided, my life does not have nearly enough secret dungeons in it.

…Huh? Are you wanting to be locked up in some castle somewhere for breaking a law you didn’t know existed?

Uh, not really…

Oh. That’s how we get more secret dungeons into our lives back home.

Ok, that sounds a bit freaky. But, no. That’s not what I was thinking.

I was just thinking about some guy who found a secret dungeon under his apartment…

Ok. That’s a lot safer.

And a lot more in character.

Well, since I think I probably don’t want to know what Fluffy meant by that last sentence, I’m just going to wish you all a happy January 5. And a happy Sunday. So, happy January 5th, and happy Sunday!

Doodling Rant

Leave a reply

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters!

So, I’m a bit annoyed. I cannot find the perfect medium.

Have you tried going for a perfect small or large instead?

…What? Oh. No. Medium, not medium.

I hope that wasn’t supposed to make sense. Because it doesn’t.

Huh. I guess it doesn’t work as well when typing.

What I was trying to say is that I can’t find the perfect thing to use for my doodlings.

Oh, artistic medium!

So, you’re ranting because you can’t doodle as well as you’d like?

Yeah. You see, I doodle a lot better with pencil and paper than I do with tablet computer and photoshop. But photoshop has layers. And layers are Ah. Maze. Ing.

Layers… Like onions have layers?

Actually, sortof yes.

Photoshop layers are wonderful. Basically, they’re a way of putting stuff on top of a previously drawn / designed thing, and not losing that picture.

Think of it as paper dolls. You can create the separate clothes, and put them on top of the doll. The doll is there, but so’s the dress. Layers are like that, except it has to do with the drawing itself. And it can be a lot more fine-tuned.

Ok. So your problem is…?

I’m a lot more precise with pencil and paper.

Seriously.

I just doodled this while I was procrastinating from other writing I’m supposedly doing.

Female Human Head Pencil Doodle the Webmaster Did.

This is actually much larger than the doodle itself.

I could never get that kind of precision on Photoshop.

But with pencil and paper, when I erase something, it doesn’t show a previous layer. It shows the paper.

So, let me get this straight… You’re ranting because a doodle you were making while procrastinating wasn’t as high tech as you wanted.

That’s not phrased as a question…

Right. I’m stating a fact. That is what you’re doing, after all.

Huh. I guess it is.

Well, it’s still rantworthy!

Clearly some think so, since you just ranted about it.

Exactly.

So, happy Saturday, Fluffsters!

A Podcast Fluffy Discovered

Leave a reply

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, Readers.

Before I get to today’s post, may I take a moment to point out the… “intricacies” of what the Webmaster has done to this blog?

Why do I get the feeling I’m going to regret letting you write today’s post?

Maybe because you always do?

But I digress.

I was just noticing again the Webmaster’s Baby-Yarn-Store-Explosion inspired color-scheme.

Look at it. Seriously.

In the overall background, you’ve got one set of colors. Behind the “text”, you’ve got another set, of the same colors. Finally, the Menu and Header Image both also have exactly the same color-scheme.

It’s called consistency. And fun with textures in photoshop.

Huh. I thought it was an obsession with pastels and a lack of creativity.

That too.

The Webmaster admitted it. I am genuinely shocked.

Great! Does that mean I can do today’s post instead?

Mo. There is a fantastic online radio show-

-Podcast. If it’s online, it’s a podcast.

Whatever.

As I was saying, there is this fantastic show I’ve discovered. It’s called “Welcome to Night Vale.” Some of you may have heard of it.

Since it is the weekend on your world, and since you therefore have time, I encourage you to examine it. I think that a number of you might find it a bit odd, but I enjoy it.

Fluffy, don’t you mean, “I think that a number of you might find it a bit odd, and I therefore enjoy it?”

…Possibly.

I wish you a great Friday, dear Readers! May your weekend be excellent.

Proof that pizza is cake.

Hello, Fluffsters! Happy Thursday!

The other day, I was talking with someone.

Really? How odd!

Hush.

But yes. That person made a mistake. She thought that pizza isn’t cake.

…What?

I know! Isn’t it crazy?

No. What I meant was, what on Earth do you mean that pizza is cake?

Oh, no. Not you too.

Well, I guess I should quickly explain.

You see, Pizza is also pizza-pie. Pizza-pie can be abbreviated to pie. Pie’s are things that have crusts and a filling, and therefore cheesecake is a pie. Cheesecake (which is pie) can also be abbreviated to cake. So therefore, pie is cake, and therefore pizza is cake. QED.

…That’s just wrong on so many levels.

That my friend didn’t buy in? I completely agree.

But anyways, Fluffsters, I hope you have a great beginning of your year, and a wonderful end of your week. Smile, it’s almost the weekend!
