the creepiness of my youth: A.K.A "why mooble is un-phased by mostly anything.".

Hey guys, mooble here. Today i'm going to tell you about some scary things i watched as a kid. for example, i'll list two things from 2000-2009.
2000: "creepy dumb baby". this is a bit faint,but i'll tell you what i remember from it. it was night-time, and i was in mom's old room. i had trouble sleeping, so i watched some TV. there was a cartoon on, which i didn't know was a PSA or something. it had this disturbing baby in a living room (it was disturbing because it looked like it crawled itself out of the pit of the "uncanny valley".), and it was pretty dumb. it decided to stick it's finger in an electric outlet (see what i mean when i said "creepy dumb baby"?) and it died or something. that's all i can remember. (if someone has the PSA, send me a youtube link. i want to see what i've been afraid of. it's either a "what were they thinking?" PSA, or a lost episode that you read about online that "magically" disappears after it plays to the only person in the room. Or they probably )
2005:my second grade teacher was reading us "the secret of NIMH", and she had the idea of showing us the MOVIE. (because everyone knows that animated movies are for kids, even if they have nightmarish imagery, and if it's rated "PG"!) i was un-phased, since i watched that PSA 11 years ago. if you're a young child, don't watch this. seriously, it's basically like the original fairy tales. If you're either brave, or  old enough, it's probably on youtube. (if the administrators are removing films that are out of print, you could buy the VHS at a garage sale. if you see me, leave it alone. i'm the kind of person that collects films like that.)
200?: I was trick-or-treating one year, and I found a house. When I was about to arrive, something made noise, and something that looked like Aughra from The Dark Crystal (It was a Jim Henson sci-fi film from the 1980's, if you don't remember it/never heard of it.It had one eye, and it was somewhat-hideous.), and it creeped me out.

privacy:a good tool against looking like a fool online.

While I was looking in my documents, I found a paper my sister wrote that could get her yelled at. (i'm not posting it on here so she doesn't get turned into an example of "how NOT to be private" in a computer class somewhere). Since I don't want you to become an example, i'm sharing some of my tips.
1.If it's public, PASSWORD IT. Seriously, you shouldn't have to learn this. If you use a public computer, get an account of your own, or use openoffice.org's password feature.
2.Do NOT give your password to anyone. You can't imagine how easily hacking could be prevented if people didn't blab about their password.
3.Don't get scammed. "Hey you! I have a bridge to sell you, real cheap. All you have to tell me is your deepest darkest secrets." is an example. now imagine the same person wearing a ski mask and a stereotypical prisoner costume. with the internet, it isn't so obvious as the example above. so, DO NOT TELL ANYTHING TO SCAMMERS.

my pasttimes.

one of my past-times is searching for terrible stories, and commenting on it. I basically make fun of plot-holes and people too lazy to ACTUALLY DO RESEARCH.
here's the original notepad thing.
one of my pasttimes is searching for terrible stories, and commenting on it. basically making fun of the plot-holes and typos that say a different thing. i also make fun of people not studying the topic!
when a person falls down a cliff and the next scene has them perfectly fine on the scene.
basically they just say "forget it, let's just use facts from a fourth grader's book report and call it a day. now we can have more time for indoor-golfing using office objects!" "i have a golfing tournament in a few hours, and i might be stuck on the toilet for 2 hours. good thing i bought the poo-putter while hallucinating by sleep-deprivation!" if you're this lazy, you can get the potty-putter at "www.stupid.com/fun/pput.html".i'll post some more of my pasttimes soon.

Stuff I do when i'm done with work

Since I'm a fast eater, I have some leftover time to goof off. there are several ways I use the time. I write scripts/stories, and I create programs using whatever coding program they include for "automation/programming". Today, I created a small controlling program for the office assistant, A.K.A the "annoying paperclip that asks me if i'm writing a letter". Even though i wasn't eating lunch, I wrote it when i had some free time. I used visualbasic, since I have to use my extra memory to remember important things, like catchphrases i came up with. "pardon me, i'm going to buy chocolate covered bacon bits from the vending machine down the hall." and "I know where to stay! we can stay in that shady hotel that wasn't there an hour ago! nothing bad happens in there!" are two of them.

there's evil afoot!

this is a serious (with some added humor) entry. a few days ago my sister's youtube account got hacked. the hacker removed some LPS videos (videos made with the new version of littlest pet shop with the creators moving them with their fingers.) and some videos that she and her friend created. it couldn't have been a REAL hacker, since no hacker in their right mind would hack an obscure tween's account. it was probably a "program running wimp" or a "password guesser". a PRW is somebody (mostly a bored teenager who only knows how to download and run programs) who uses a program to hack accounts. (think of a bored teenage boy, overdosing on energy drink, laughing maniacally like a stereotypical villain while hacking somebody's account.) a password-guesser is someone who guesses passwords from his best friend, "webster's dictionary"! to help protect yourself, make a hard-to-crack password that has NOTHING in the dictionary. for fun, create something called a "honey pot". the trap should have a combination of annoying music at maximum volume. the hacker should've become bored of it, and search for another person to hack. anyways, [censored] and my sister are going to attempt to make up. so, hopefully this won't happen again.
