Things I Love - Sunday, October 18, 2009

Some people seem to think I’m a negative person that hates everything, which is preposterous and wrong.  I don’t hate everything, here are some things I love:

  1. The latest Metroid game: Shadow Complex, and I mean that in the best way possible.  Do you like Metroid?  Then you’ve no excuse to not own this game.  It is enjoyable times 10.  I’ve spent all afternoon playing it, and I can’t wait to play some more.  If you have a Xbox 360, then download the demo, be impressed, and then buy the game.  Speaking of demos, that’s something the Wii got wrong.  Demos are a beautiful, beautiful thing.  It’s one more safeguard that keeps crappy games away from your wallet.
  2. Starship Troopers.  It’s probably the best movie ever made, and neither I nor my relatives ever say that about movies.  Please tell me you’ve seen Starship Troopers.  If you haven’t, just leave.  Don’t come back till you’ve watch it.  Then you can watch it again, in song form.  Remember, service guarantees citizenship.
  3. Dethalbum II.  The only downside is I got the deluxe edition, which lacks the awesome cover art.  It’s still amazing.
  4. The complete lack of roommates in my life, but you already knew that.
  5. Ska Studios, for they made a game and put zombies in it.  It’s only $1!  The theme song alone makes this game worth buying.
  6. The only completely reasonable use of Twitter in existence.
  7. Probably the best episode of South Park ever.  Now whenever I see some chick kissing some dude, I get annoyed for a different reason: she’s just giving them away for free!
  8. Law & Order.  I’ve become quite the addict since I got my DVR.  I plan on watching all the episodes, starting from Season 1.  That’s 20 seasons, 5 of which I believe lack McCoy.  Those seasons will make me sad.  Who likes Jack McCoy?  Everyone does.
  9. The cutest dog you’ll ever see.
  10. Rock Lee.  You need your show to be better?  BAM!  Add some Rock Lee to it.  Rock Lee on Law & Order?  My head would explode.  It will grow back.  Rock Lee knows you’re guilty, and he’s coming for you.
  11. The Daily Show.  I heart me some Daily Show (which is not daily at all!).  It’s kinda sad that the only news I watch on TV is fake news.  I enjoy watching Jon Stewart ruin careers, because it’s what he does.  I would hate to be on the Daily Show.  I’d never work again.  “Weren’t you that guy who Jon Stewart owned?  No job for you!”  Who knew he knew so much about software?
  12. Vacuously true statements.  For example, I have never kicked a child that has entered my apartment.  It’s a crafty way of lying, and I lie often.
  13. Actually thinking of something to post.  I have certain requirements when it comes to what I post, unlike before where I would just post whatever.  This makes actually posting something difficult; I have 9 drafts sitting around.  I might post them one day.

Boo? - Wednesday, October 7, 2009

I don’t understand many things, and one of those things is Halloween.  Back in the day, I used to actually go Trick-or-treating, but as I often tell my parents when they talk about my past exploits, “I used to do a lot of things”.  Now, I can’t even fake excitement over Halloween.  What’s the point?  The closest I get to celebrating Halloween is seeing the new Saw movie that comes out around Halloween time (it’s a tradition!).  I’m not really big on eating candy, or sweets in general.  The closest thing I get to candy is the sugar free gum I chew throughout the work day.  And giving out candy to little kids?  I find that idea laughable and dumb.  Why would I want to give out free candy to these brats?  Now that I think about it, I should have a Snicker’s bar ready to bite into if someone knocks on my door on Halloween night.  This will be followed by me telling the freeloader who has appeared on my doorstep that I don’t have any candy.

When someone asks what I’m going to be for Halloween, I reply “visibly annoyed”.  I’m not big on wearing costumes for reasons that overlap with why I don’t cosplay.  Now, I’m not against people wearing costumes: someone who’s a fully functioning Optimus Prime for Halloween is a winner.  But I’ve yet to understand why many members of the female gender think Halloween also known as Dress Like A Whore Day.  This is not a complaint; contrary to popular belief, I am male and I am fond of the ladies. I’m simply saying I don’t understand why one can’t simply be just be a nurse, police officer, or 1920s oil tycoon; you don’t have to be a sexy nurse, sexy police officer, sexy 1920s oil tycoon, or sexy anything for that matter.  I remember when I was in college (it makes me feel old to say that), I overheard someone (whose name I won’t mention even though she will ever read this) having a hard time thinking of something to be for Halloween.  So in the end, she decided to be a slut for Halloween.  Yes, that’s exactly what she said: slut.  That’s so lame.  Ladies, level up your costume skills.  Flesh doesn’t imply success (it rhymes!).  On the opposite end of the spectrum, just putting on cat ears is also lame and lazy.  You know what would be a good costume?  Jack McCoy.  Who wouldn’t want to be Jack McCoy?  I know I would.  I think I’ll watch some Law and Order when I get home.
