You can tell I’m stressed because I’m standing up for myself. Or at least being very clear about it. Allow me to offer some examples. A student who has shown up about 35 minutes late for class every time so far e-mails me asking me about assignments he’d know about if he’d actually show up. […]
Hey, guess what! It’s time for a blowoff post where I point you at someone else’s content you should watch! Okay, it’s only kind of shirking my duties that only I think I have, I suppose. But hey, people make better stuff than me, You should go enjoy it. Like, say, this Dead to Rights […]
Applebee’s removed their burger from their 2 for 20 menu. I honestly don’t understand why. One would think the burger would be one of the cheapest things they could serve on that menu, which would mean they’d jump for joy when I ordered it. But no, it was gone, so I had to think fast […]
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is really, really good. Essner and I basically played through it in two very long sessions. We probably put, at the very least, close to 8 hours in on it. It was fun for the whole time. It’s really good. Now, I’m not someone who has ever really […]
I don’t know if I’ve made it clear enough, but I really, really hate pointing the Wiimote at the screen. I hate it with a passion. This is why it’s so shocking that I enjoy Trauma Team so much. Because I really do. Trauma Team is fantastic. When I say Fantastic, I mean the gameplay […]
I have heard people, mostly Brickroad, go on and on about how awesome Pepsi Throwback is. It’s made with real sugar, and is apparently something to stockpile! However, even though I am quite the Pepsi-drinker, I’ve never really gone and gotten a Pepsi Throwback. However, during my last trip to St. Louis, I stopped to […]
Random thread on Talking Time lead me to downloading some more iPod games. One of them is called QRank. It is free and awesome. Basically, QRank is a trivia game. Every day, there is a grid of 20 questions. 8 are 200 point “easy” questions, 8 are 400 point “medium” questions, and 4 are 800 […]
I am super busy, as I can get. Things are happening and happening. So hey, here’s a linkdump post. Through the Talking Time IRC and various talkings about it. I discovered this youtube channel. Retsupurae is pretty funny stuff. I mostly enjoyed the LPs of various horrible flash games that are up there. However, Val […]
Animus are always an issue for me. I do like them, when they’re good. The problem is that there is so, so much crap out there. I never feel like I have any idea where to start when looking for the really good stuff, especially when it’s the strange, weird things I enjoy. For example, […]
On Monday, my students came to class having read the wrong chapter. I wrote the wrong one on the board, and they did the wrong assignment. This kind of caused me to have to ad lib for the class that day. I feel like I did alright with having planned to talk about a completely […]
