Sometimes I have my moments where I realize “Holy shit, I really am the sort of person who has a degree in English.” Mostly, these come in the form of inspiration for English Major-y papers, where I look at something and realize I could analyze it in a way where I could add in research, […]
So I’ve been cleaning off my desk. Sort of. Mostly I’ve just been chewing all the gum that has been on my desk for months. I’m actually unsure how this is really getting my desk cleaner, but at least it doesn’t have packs of gum on it anymore? I guess that’s nice. And I got […]
On a whim, as I do, I picked up a game because it was cheap. (Only $2.50!) It is called Chains. This is its website, but don’t buy it from there, because even if the sale I bought it during is off by the time you read this, it’s still going to be cheaper on […]
I find now, all of the sudden, that I have no idea why I am not following Giant Bomb more often. I was liked to a little review of Rocket Riot, a game I hadn’t really heard about, on Talking Time. I watched it, and I was like “Okay, this is pretty entertaining, let’s see […]
Work is just amazing. I just found out that I have HOURS next week! Actual, verifiable hours! Lots of them! I will have a big paycheck! I was all happy! And then I went “Oh, I have hours.” I mean, I’m not someone who bitches about work a lot? When something genuinely pisses me off, […]

Free shipping is a trap. A TRAP! It took me a long while to realize this, and about when I did, I got Amazon Prime, so it would never again be an issue. Gone were the days of throwing another two or three things I didn’t need onto an order in order to get super […]
This country is pretty okay, I suppose. Like so many things, this country is run by some sort of system of government, which involves politics, none of with I can do anything even vaguely about. The wheels of it keep on turning, and sometimes I vote, I have even called up a congressperson once or […]
Well, we finally finished up all our Hamster runs. It didn’t even end with any sort of exciting moment or anything. The run was one of the smoothest we had. It was all business as usual. Hodgman went down, and our last team member got their Hamster. And then, suddenly, I could ascend again. It […]
It’s time for a pointless spiel about Penny Arcade! I like Penny Arcade. Hell, you like Penny Arcade. Everyone likes Penny Arcade, and there are good reasons why everyone likes Penny Arcade. Recently, Penny Arcade put forward a series of story starters for people to vote on. This is when the problems started happening. Now, […]
