This one has it all! Earthy chick covering a rock song! Calm guy walking in slow motion amid chaos! A big-ass spider! That fat guy from Heroes!

I know him as Eric Weiss from Alias.

Never cared for Alias. A friend really liked it, so I watched a fair amount of it, but it always struck me as pretty stupid.

Even though I only really know Greg Grunberg from Heroes, I know his name is Greg Grunberg. I blanked on his character's name for a second (it eventually came to me: Matt Parkman), but his real name was right there in my head. Weird. I can also remember Milo Ventimiglia's name, but I'm only half sure I know his character's name. Peter? I'm drawing a total blank on Hayden Panettiere's character's name. All I can remember is that she was "The Cheerleader."

If I also knew these guys from other stuff, it would make more sense that I knew their real names. I know Ventimiglia was also in Rocky Balboa, but that's the only other thing that's coming to mind.

XKCD strips usually have a mouseover text. This one did. It was "I do this constantly." I wasn't able to preserve it, because I don't think our board is enabled to do it.

That's something Jubbers might could add for us: the ability to add mouseover text to an image. If she wanted, I mean.

Done.

I also realized today that I probably couldn't post a YouTube video with a time stamp here because it would require manipulation of the embed code, which is not supported by this text editor. :(

Time Stamp Test:


Code: Select all

Now optional: specify starting time by placing number of seconds after the =

Done.

You are fucking awesome! Anyone who can add time stamp functionality for YouTube videos to a forum is my friend. :D

I was your friend before that, right? Right?

Whatever the case, you at least know he considered you a friend of a friend.

He probably would have even watched a Bulls/Pistons game with you.

Bummer. Must have been a rights thing. I'll see if I can find it elsewhere.

Nope. Looks like when Jubbers changed things to be able to add a time stamp, it fouled up the regular YouTube embed code.

Let me try this:



I went with the "youtime" tag and set it to start at "0."

Maybe the board won't let you assign two different codes the same functionality. I dunno. Jubbers has gone to bed, so I don't want to bother her with it tonight.

I wasn't lying when I said she'd gone to bed. She just hasn't gone to sleep. She does her best coding in bed.

Earlier in the evening, she actually managed to turn off her light remotely. All with code. I was impressed.

You are supposed to be able to have [youtube] and [youtube=]; something's wrong with the BBCode parser. They work when you "Preview," but not on "Submit." I'm going to run a Re-Parser.

I see "youtime=" instead of "youtube=" when I look at the buttons. (I used the "youtime=" option for mine.) Does that make a difference?

That was me renaming it temporarily to try to fix it. Finished reparsing just now. It looks like [youtube] and [youtube=] (for timestamp) are working like they're supposed to now, so there is no longer [youtime]. You'll have to re-do the post you made @ 10:52 pm.

I just significantly shortened the length of "never."
