November 2011
I felt like beating myself up over another holiday alone, but, well…
I went and had a nice steak dinner, caught up on some Giant Bomb videos, and wistfully drove around town with public radio playing quietly in the background. Rocket Raccoon and Frank West were just shown in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and the Muppets will be on Raw no matter how HHHorrid the show may be.
Relatively?...

Things I remember dressing up as for Halloween
A crayon
Raphael the Ninja Turtle
Han Solo
Watto, with full face mask. Dumb and funny them, dumber and funnier now.
Kyle Katarn when I was like 13 so I could go out with friends
Goliath from Gargoyles, except my parents bought the costume and I had never watched the show so just “A Gargoyle”
I’m sure there are other things for me to remember in the family photo album
Chikara: Picking up ROH’s slack since 2009.
Gemini Rue now has a Steam code from the Indie Royale, as do three DLC packs for Sanctum.
You know, for the no one making purchase decisions per my recommendation.
The internet should be providing me with substantial offering of where and what to think about, but I keep coming back to the same things. I keep coming back to you, and to me, and to my place in this world. I keep trying to remember that it’s normal for me to talk to people instead of walls. In the most 15-year-old girl’s Tumblr way of putting it, God, I wish I could figure out myself. ...
Work tomorrow. I wish I could be out of here.
If you get bored I can talk to you.

You stupid old man, I’m a snake.
All Videodrome needs is a numbers station and it would be my favorite movie on the planet.
(No, it wouldn’t. But way to tug at my desensitized heartstrings!)
Here’s Gemini Rue, by the way.

Hey, anyone! This is like the Humble Indie Bundle, except it is by other people and it doesn’t go to charity. So…screw the kids, right? It also works on a different pay scale: Instead of “pay what you want”, it starts at a minimum price and rises over time. The only way to decrease the price is to pay more yourself.
It’s an interesting thing, and I paid $5 for it...
Again…you’re being used.
If you’re not now you never were.
Sexuality needn’t be in everything.
Comic books are for kids. At the end of the day they are, no matter how much we may enjoy them. Is that not understood? Peter Parker was been by an impossibly radioactive spider and now hops around New York in bright red and blue full-body underwear. Don’t try to say “NOW IT’S 4 ADULTS!!!!” Don’t have Spider-Man kill Mary...
TumblrBot is recommending I follow some shady folk…
I am going to listen to funny podcasts and play Street Fighter.
We live in the flicker — may it last as long as the old earth keeps rolling! But...

It’s difficult to find things on /w/ that don’t creep me out.
I have little insight into where my life is headed. There are a vast number of avenues for me to travel, and I like to think that I’m simply having trouble picking one. Do I continue a quest for more consistent work? Do I go back to school full-time? Part-time? Do I whittle away till I pass? Do I grab an idea from left field? I don’t know, and I continue to not know.
What I...
Portal 2 is one of the best games ever made.
Anonymous asked: Both are good, it's really up to your own preferences. The subbed version's up to episode 344 though, while the dub's only up to 227.
Anonymous asked: So why not try watching it instead? Then you don't have to deal with reading two things at once.
