Obligitory Valentine’s Day Post

I, uh, kinda got busy and caught up in crap, so I never got a horrible love poem in the physical mail. Hopefully this “shout it from a mountain that kind of looks like a blog oh wait it is a blog” approach will work alright. Heh. People who aren’t Brer can probably safely vacate […]

IoTM Review: Foxy!

So, last I checked, it was February. So it’s IoTM time! Or it has been IoTM time. Yep. Twilight Heroes offers a set this month, the foxy sombrero mask and the foxy caped suit. Since they have the word “foxy” in them and everyone in game calls me Foxy (Thanks to Val) I couldn’t NOT […]

A so-called “real” world status update.

The future is hazy. Yes, I mean, I’m about to graduate. That’s awesome. But we’re in a time when people are getting fired all the time, and I just… I don’t know if, once I start looking a month or two from now, if there will be good jobs out there for me. So I […]

It’s not really about soup, I suppose.

So, I was continuing to have a roguelike urge, and Talking Time had, conveniently started up a thread about stupid roguelike deaths. I was all playing Shiren, but they kept talking about a PC roguelike called Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. It’s apparently a modification of Dungeon Crawl, if you couldn’t guess. Since it was popular […]

Casting a Pod into your Face

So, with the purchase of 1up, there was a sudden lack of podcasts and podblasts in my life. All the awesome people on Talking Time got… well… talking about a podcast called Idle Thumbs, and I had to try it. Because I was desperate for podcasts. I laughed so hard. SO HARD. Idle Thumbs claims […]

The title barely relates to anything either.

So onward marches the semester, for better or worse, and so I’ve read another novel for my novel class. This one is Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Now, after how much I enjoyed Motherless Brooklyn, I was looking forward to more. I really don’t read enough, and if the class keeps feeding me stuff […]

Jongin’

So, I don’t know if you listened to the last 1up Yours, (even though it seems like Listen UP is the exactly same show only it doesn’t have Shane) but if you did you probably heard Luke Smith and John Davidson talk about, what else, an iPhone game. Mr. Davidson likes talking about those, and […]

Buttons

So, I didn’t think I was going to get to go out and see it opening weekend, but I managed to swing it! I saw Coraline. This is the first movie that I’ve actively wanted to see for a long while, so it was a good excuse to get out of the house. Being out […]

Hamster: Raided.

So, after all the planning, all the leveling up, all the nickel grinding, we finally got to do our first Hamster Raid in KoL. It was… not what I expected. First of all, I had a takedown before it, and I was scrambling the whole time to hurry up and get home and I managed […]

Dominionating

So, it’s offical now: My friends love Dominion. Dominion is a card game made my Rio Grande Games. I heard about it on the 120 minutes of Jick and Crew, as they were talking about a card game that was about building a deck, much like you build a deck in Magic the Gathering. Of […]
