Rapid Fire Ramblings returns! For some reason!<\/p>\n

This is the essence of Justin Spaeth: Right here<\/a>, in this tweet. That just sums the man up so perfectly, I think.<\/p>\n

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 bringing that kind of functionality to the PC is so sweet. But every time I plug in my headset it’s a crapshoot whether or not I’m going to have to restart Steam in order for it to recognize it and let me talk in a call. It’s actually probably some sort of issue with the audio drivers of my headset, but oh well.<\/p>\n

So awhile back, I noticed they had apparently translated the Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei manga<\/a>. As someone who had enjoyed the show, I picked it up. The show did so many weird things, I was expecting the manga to be different, but not so! It’s almost shot for shot the same thing. This means it’s still quite entertaining, but I have issues reading it, as I’ve watched all the episodes covered in the first volume at least twice. Oh well, at least the creator got a little money from me for making something I enjoy.<\/p>\n

I cashed in my bucket of pennies over the weekend. I had 2400 pennies! I also cashed in 121 quarters, 242 dimes, and 130 nickels at the CoinStar machine to end up with an $84.95 Amazon Gift Certificate, which is basically paying for the next couple games I’m being mailed. So that’s cool. Time to fill the bucket up again!<\/p>\n

I’ve had two packs of Maui Melon Mint gum on my desk, and every day I think about taking them to work and then every day I don’t take them to work. It’s not a bad gum. I should take it to work tonight. I won’t, though.<\/p>\n

Yep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
