Watching A Monster Fall After Slicing Off Its Legs Never Gets Old.

I played Dead Space: Extraction, and that was kind of shit because pointing at the screen with the Wiimote is kind of shit. Then I played Dead Space the iPhone game, which was shockingly good, if not always the easiest to control. At this point, I decided I really needed to play the actual game. […]

I Continue To Play League of Legends

League of Legends is a really weird thing for me. I mean, here is a game that is almost purely versus other people. It requires actual teamwork with your team to be anywhere near effective: you can’t lone wolf. People playing video games on the internet are still people playing video games on the internet, […]

It Was Always There

I feel like shit right now, and instead of writing a bunch of depressing bullshit, here’s some links! Everyone loves links, right? It’s the very backbone of our modern computing age! This is the best chainsawsuit of recent memory. Really made me laugh. I was also very pleased by this picture, though it has bunnies […]

I Was Foolish To Trust In The Power Of Rock.

A long time ago, I put a game called Rock of the Dead on my Gamefly queue. It was supposed to be a light gun game that used the Guitar Hero controllers. This, to me, sounded like a great idea. I mean, a typing game made a fantastic light gun shooter. I pictured something that […]

Understanding Poetry Is Hard.

Here’s some random ramblings about my thought processes: I find it interesting how my “poetry brain” works. As someone who goes by a name that includes “poet” right in there, and who is writing a ton of poetry for her thesis, one would assume I can do poetry. I can read it, and think about […]

If you cut off my internet, I will murder you: A Post of Frustration

I get this kind of rage any time something frustrates me, but there is nothing that frustrates me more than my tech not working. I guess I should explain. I was having some very nice conversations with my boyfriend, with Cris, with Ecks, and I was trying to write a blog, because hey, I haven’t […]

Why are some so obvious, and some so hidden?

I just finished a book called Riding the Trail of Tears. It was a fairly enjoyable experience! It also has passages like this one. BILLIONS?? But okay, so out of context, that passage seems really, really silly, at the very least. That’s kind of why I took the picture. But if I had to pick […]

Nier is a pretty well-designed protagonist.

I finally started playing Nier again, and as I continued, I basically fell completely in love with it. It’s creative, heartfelt, and weird. I love it. But I’ll talk about that more once I finish it. What I want to talk about today is Nier’s main character. I believe his offical name is, oddly enough, […]

I Can See.

I’ve been wearing glasses for a few days, I suppose. How as that been going? Pretty well? I mean, there is no doubt that I needed these. From the moment I started wearing them, I was kind of blown away by how much clearer my vision was. I left to pick up my glasses, taking […]

I’m Not Buying Pokemon White or Black.

Pokemon is out and everyone is excited about their Pokemons and things of that nature, which is cool. I can’t do it anymore. I have so many fond memories of Pokemon. I remember seeing it in Nintendo Power, and being so incredibly excited for its release. I remember playing Red for hours and hours on […]
