For real, Rich? I better check with Afterlife Department. I can't see life records there, but I should have clearance to see the lifetimers...
@Syd: So, did you embarass your in-law by blasting Love is in Bloom at their anniversary?
Happy birthday, Ace! I turned 20 just last week.
So, I was gone for a bit 'cause my bed got delivered too! What are we on about?
I haven't set up my computer yet because it may be a bit broken. The front face of it came undone, and it looks like something holding it together might have snapped. I need to take a careful look to make sure nothing was seriously damaged in her guts before I set it up completely, yet.

Did I come out of the Brony closet in front of 30-plus people (some of whom I'd never met) at my sister's 20th wedding anniversary?
No.

What are you looking at?

Happy Birthday Ace! You're only a couple of months older than me.
And a Happy belated Birthday to you, Kegi.

@Kegs: Laptop or desktop? If it's just the plastic facade of a desktop case just snap it back in. If something sounds loose inside, open up the case and make sure all the RAM and expansion cards and drives and cables are properly attached and where they should be.
@Pip: How're you with the other kids?

@Kegi, wait, you just turned 20? Well first off Happy Birthday mate, same to you Ace, but I was always under the impression you were older than I am, most certainly act like it.

@Syd: You tend to lose the Whippersnapper label after creating a universe, protecting it from invasions, and then getting to watch it age and fad away because you were a dolt and forgot to mode the cosmological constant to prevent Entropy/Heat Death.
@kegs: Also Happy B-day.
Ogatamon did her JPN fandub of This Day Aria! Yaaaaaaay!
@Ace: Desktop. One of the things holding it will pop back it, but there's another that appears to have snapped at the base. but I'll try seeing if it'll snap together again anyways, just to see.
Thanks, folks. And Mousa; I get that a fair bit(though it's usually because of my looks; I wear a beard specifically to look older. Without it I look about 16, with it I look about mid-twenties.). My attitude is more relaxed than most people my age I guess.

@Kegs: You could use epoxy putty or Blu-tack or duct tape to pin it in place.
I actually look really young too, also I'm short but many country's standards (just about 1.7m tall, lol, that's about 5"11" innit?)
I just watched Owl's Well that Ends Well in my watch-through of the 1st and 2nd seasons and I had some Fridge Brilliance about Spike's ignorance about dragons in that episode. I thought at first, "He's a dragon, why doesn't he know that a cave full of jewels is likely to be the site of another dragon's hoard?" and then realized that, he DOESN'T know because as Dragon Quest showed, he doesn't really know much about his own species since he was raised by ponies. Also, he didn't go with the ponies to deal with the dragon in Dragonshy, so he may not have EVER seen another dragon's hoard before that.
