A Variety of Interests

I love my parents, but man, there’s just been a huge gap between us for a lot of my life. They wanted things for me, and I wanted completely different things. They wanted someone who played sports, who was a “normal” kid who was fashionable like the “normal” kids, and, hell, a son. I was […]

IoTM Review: Get Them Underfoot.

In July, the IoTM of the Month for the game called “Kingdom of Loathing” is the Bag o’ Tricks. I really like this one. Really like it. Yep. First off, just look at those base stats for equipping it. +item? Yes please. And the MP regen and +spell damage just go great alongside a Chefstaff. […]

IoTM Review: Short Shorts

Over in the land of Twilight, the current garment that is all the rage is the Three-Speed Bicycle Shorts. This stylish pair of shorts comes in three flavors: First gear, Second Gear, and High Gear. This is a solid item. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’ll be able to enjoy the real neatness of these pants […]

The ending theme is some sort of ridiculous Mah Jong Metal tune.

So hot off my Mah Jong Anime Kick, I decided to watch another Mah Jong anime. I was told that Akagi was not only better, but the best Mah Jong based show out there. (Then again, I can’t suppose that it’s too competitive a field) My first impression was that it was going to be […]

An “I bought a phone” post.

So I just spent all kinds of money on a brand new phone and a data plan. Exciting times! I am now the proud owner of a Blackberry Bold, one of the newest Blackberries, with all the bells, whistles, and 3Gs. The first question one has to ask when they realize I made this purchase […]

Seriously, though. Seriously. Woah. Seriously.

Apparently this exists. That’s basically all I have to say about the subject, except to be astounded. The world is just an amazing place. you know? You think “hey, I have access to a vast network of computers which can basically give me any information I want at any time. There’s nothing I can be […]

But I am the Chosen One!

So I just got back from seeing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I guess I’m in the minority, but as much as I loved Harry Potter originally, J.K. Rowling’s writing quickly showed how weak it was as they let her write longer and longer novel and she attempted to build up a world she […]

How cute. It pretends it has a plot.

I like music game. There is music game on iPhone. Music game is called Mevo and the Grooveriders: Galactic Tour. It’s good. Buy it. … Okay, fine. So, this game came out on Steam, and it was called Mevo and the Grooveriders. I was interested, because it’s a music game, and I am a person […]

Big Box of Board Game Impressions: Intriguing

There hasn’t been a game I’ve bought that’s been more of a hit than Dominion. And why shouldn’t it be a hit. The game has a completely genius design based around building your deck while you play, and is incredibly easy to pick up while being strategically interesting and fun all around. It really is […]

I’ll be playing cards in a much more dramatic fashion for weeks.

So, there’s a thread on Talking Time. It’s called Fall Anime ’08. The title is kind of incorrect, though, as it’s much more about talking about what Animes are currently running and how they are. (I guess the title was correct, back in Fall of ’08, but it keeps being used. In any case, I […]
