EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

So last Sunday, Woot twittered a message. Moments later, I bought a Netbook. Saturday, I get an e-mail saying that it’s been shipped, and here’s my shipping information. Huzzah, I say! I click on the shipping thing to see when the estimated delivery for the machine is. It says it was dropped outside my door […]

One Day…

I am not really a music person. My parents are the sorts that listened to Talk Radio when I was growing up, so I was never really exposed to music until I was introduced to They Might Be Giants during my high school years. Even then, I myself almost always listen to my generation’s version […]

I’d also like to try being a Standard or Budget Warfighter.

When I last talked about GRAW, I was a little pissed, as you can tell. The game still is a pretty glitchy, horrible mess. On a lot of missions, Brer and I will get into a co-op game, and then fall through the world geometry and have to restart half the time. It has crashed […]

Rapid Fire Ramblings: Spants, Steam Chat, Zetsubou, Coins, Gum.

Rapid Fire Ramblings returns! For some reason! This is the essence of Justin Spaeth: Right here, in this tweet. That just sums the man up so perfectly, I think. I really wish I could figure out why Steam’s voice chat works so weird. I love it: it works like Xbox Live when it’s working, and […]

I think the word “Smithereens” was used at least twice.

Hey, I finally completed the latest Wallace and Gromit episode, The Last Resort! Just in time to get the next one and not complete that one in a timely manner, I imagine. How was it? Well, it was definitely an episode of a Telltale adventure game, I’ll tell you that much! Which basically means “entertaining, […]

Linkdumpin’

This is a boring post. Sorry. But here are some things to look at and watch that are NOT boring. Yay! This is a video showing why Star Ocean 4 apparently has the worst voice acting and animation in any video game ever. This is a BBC video about monkeys and how much they enjoy […]

Splitting up.

So apparently there’s a new season of Haruhi and I was all excited. So I watched the first new episode. It was good! No dance, but how could they beat the last dance? So that’s alright. Then I went back and I watched the first episode of the first season. I laughed. Then, when I […]

IoTM Review: It’s a Familiar!

I don’t know if you heard, but part of the revamp of the Cube quest was that you got, gasp, a permanent sidekick! Which was really damn cool! It doesn’t do anything worthwhile for someone who is farming and has like… a million clockwork ants, but once we get into a retcon or ascension kind […]

Now With Phat Lewts!

This weekend is Free TF2 Weekend! Not that I care, because I own the game. But it also marks the release of the Sniper vs Spy content pack! This includes new equipment and achievements for these classes but, more importantly, it marks a huge-ass change in how these weapons are unlocked, via a tiny little […]

IoTM Review: Key To Riches

So apparently May is now “Wacky KoL Experiment May.” Or so it’s been said. The last one got generally bad reviews for being much, much too restricted! But this one, this one is going to be good, right? Maybe? Well, it certainly was new. There were actually two IoTMs this month. One was the Clan […]
