Avenging: Not A Useless Pastime.

Sometimes, people gotta avenge, you know? It’s like, you can’t just sit there and NOT avenge. It’s avenging time. Gotta do it. Anyway, yeah, I watched The Avengers. Spoilers and shit, probably. First off, we saw it in 3D. This was totally useless, but CJ hadn’t really seen any 3D movies, so, you know. Novelty. […]

Semester Over! How’d it go?

Well, the semester is over besides the tedious job of finishing up all my grading and turning in final grades. HOW DID IT GO? Pretty well, I suppose. This semester was most definitely a learning experience all around. I was expanding out of my comfort zone, teaching new stuff and generally being way the fuck […]

Clothing Shopping

I went shopping for clothing with my mother today. It was potentially scary experience, you know? There’s just such a history of her trying to force me into masculine clothes, and even once I was living full time, trying to force me into very masculine but technically female clothes so as “not to upset anyone” […]

It’s Right In The Title. Of Course I Tried It.

I was on the app store, and there was an app called “Rocket Fox” and because I am literally the most predictable person, I downloaded it. Well, the free trial anyway. But I’m thinking about going ahead and ponying up for the full thing, because it was a fun time. Basically, you are a fox […]

Competitiveness.

CJ and I played Dungeon Twister. It had been awhile since I played, but I swept him pretty completely. It’s… an interesting game. Being a game of basically complete information, where you know everything your opponent could do at any time, really, it’s so very, very unfriendly to new players. I obviously had figured out […]

Poetry Scribble: Thinking About My Own Reactions Poetry!

Here’s a poem about my gut reactions and how fucking stupid and jealous they are. Not one of my best, but eh. Spent Youth That’s you at 20. Right there. Emptying without asking, I see you, at 20, and I have to look away from words bouncing into rods and cones. I’m not going to […]

It’s Okay, Darkness. I Get It. Don’t Have To Keep Screaming And Making The Screen Red.

On the Bombcast recently, they had this argument over whether Prototype 2 was Dumb, or dumb. Like, is it dumb as in stupid and silly and fun? Or is it Dumb as in completely stupid bullshit that’s painful to play. Anyway, The Darkness 2 is dumb in the fun silly way, and I really enjoyed […]

Yet Another “Fine” “Addition” To The With Friends Family

I’ve been playing Scramble with Friends with my brother. I’m really just kind of fucking annoyed that Zynga has the market cornered on these good asynchronous games, mostly. They work without any problems, and they play across platform so I can play on my iPad with my brother on his Android phone. I am not […]

Rapid Fire Ramblings: Depressing Solutions, Food Favoritism, Action Figures, Failure Rate

Hello, and welcome to blog. Today I will blog. Prepare to blog. So I talked about an issue yesterday with money and shit and it solved itself in the “aww but at least we’re not in financial trouble” sort of way. Which is better than being fucked over, I guess. Even though it said on […]

Pre-PAX Planning Problems: Per Person Price Panic.

Word that starts with P. Here’s my impression of my PAX experience so far. “Oh, they’re sold out of 3 day passes? Are we doing this? Okay, let’s buy two days of passes, that’s all I can be there for anyway. Cool, got them. Now to do some research on travel and hote… HOLY FUCK. […]
