Skipping work related stuff 'cause you all know how that infuriates me.

Anywho, finally The Conduit came out & it rocks....mostly. I get the ol' FPS dizzy spells toying around with the settings have helped a bit. I still get them especially in moments of frustration when I have to keep wandering around the same room in circles while trying to find a damn node on the wall so I can unlock a stupid door which should be destructable anyway.

The dizziness either doesn't happen at all when I play online or at such a reduced degree that it doesn't bother me. Lag on the other hang is the demon here. Hard to rack up kills as it is when people bunny hop all over the place(which is why FPS games should NEVER have a jump button) but when you add lag to the mix, you get players that warp out of the crosshairs & you fall dead as they reappear off the the side. The price to pay for a wireless router I guess. I did dominate one free for all match when there were only 4 or 5 other players on the map(less lag?). Something like 12 kills & 3 deaths. Haven't seen a K/D spread like that in a FPS since my Perfect Dark days. 

In other news. Got one of those spam emails from classmates.com again. 50 people signed my guest book or whatever. Of course I was curious since I don't think I even talked to 50 people on a regular basis in high school. I sure as Hell can't name 50 people from there. I was almost ready to sign up just to see their names but that logically side of my brain kicked in & thank you wikipedia. I'm still trying to figure out how that site stays in business considering all of the 100% totally free social networking sites out there.

Went to hang out with those DAS guys again & just like last month I ended up wasting time & gas money because no one was there. Double & triple checked their site so I knew I had the right day yet when I asked for info from the library staff....it's -next- week on the 27th. The Hell? I like that group & all but I can't keep making pointless trips to Wilmington every month with the way my crappy wallet is. I may have to stop going down there. And people wonder why I typically avoid social interaction in person. It's a Hell of a lot cheaper to stay online &/or in front of my TV.

Well on the plus side, I've been dealing with this detox nonsense fairly ok. Learned the hard way that a banana is not breakfast(those herbal pills kept me in the bathroom & going back & forth in there for a good hour). I am losing inches though, recently fit back into some shorts I bought 5 or 6 years ago but never got around to throwing away that I found while cleaning out my closet.

Then again people were noticing me slimming down even before I started this so my patented Poorman's Diet(if you can't afford it, you can't eat it) can be given credit too.


On the negative side my crappy job has done yet another round of layoffs. They got rid of 3 or 4(won't know for sure til next week) on my shift. Really sucky since two of them I got along with. One of them I considered the only source of intelligent conversation in that place so the collective IQ of that dump suffered a significant drop. Everyone's fairly certain that they're trying to shut the place down with the way management has been acting just plain stupid. Ugh...

At least the weather is nice today. What? I like it dark & gloomy like this.

You know us gamers & how we have to check our stats. HP/MP, score, exp points, etc. Did a bit of that for real today when I finally had the chance to check out a holistic doctor that I heard about from my mother. The drive there was a pain in the ass as it was in Dover which is just a honeycomb of speed traps where speed limits change every 2 miles. I tried the cruise control for the first time but what good is it once the speed limit fluctuated once I got the thing working?

Any who, I'm not dying from anything which is good. On the sucky side, the things that concerned her were my nerves seem to be on the shot side(which I knew since my hands & fingers often twitch or lock up) & apparently I've raised Hell on my liver. I'm on a 90 day diet which will be my personal Hell(No red meat, pork, soda = misery) & I'll be taking some herbs too. If I had money in my wallet, I would have raided Wawa & had a goodbye feast.

Not a bad experience considering what I know of other people's funerals. Actually things were rather upbeat at times.

Car ride there was a pain & the ride back was even worse. The plan was after the services were over I'd hitch an early ride back with my sister & leave my folks behind but that idiot stayed to the friggin end of the dinner/lunch/whatever part. Because it took her for-damned-ever to find her glasses, decide which one of her awful CDs to play, then take a molasses tour home, my parents actually got there -before- us. Ugh..knew I should have came alone in my own car... At least my frustration of the car rides & staying pretty much silent most of the time(noticed early in the day people would either ignore me or brush me off when I spoke so I just gave up talking & let them stumble over their own stupidity) I had the energy to hit Wawa & get me a Roast Beef sandwhich. Mmm I love those.

First the good news

As for the rest...well crappy as usual. My dad's being his usual ass of a self again which I don't even feel like going on about right now. Oh yeah, my fav blogging spot over at Yahoo! 360 is shutting down in favor of a more myspace/n00b kid-friendly profiles system. For you guys here it's no biggy as most of the blogs there were copy/pasted to here anyway but over there I had more freedom to post photos & such for the 18 & older crowd.

Job hunt is as stagnant as ever. The only jobs that are hiring are still worse than the one I already have. 2009 sucks.

Things are looking up...sorta. Guess that's why I haven't posting as much lately & when I do it's been lacking material. A lot of it has been bland at best, horrid at worse. Long story short, I needed yesterday. Several hours of undisturbed anime & gaming with a group of people that enjoy anime & gaming. Showed off my Brawl moves, reawakened my slumbering Street Fighter skills(played Street Fighter 4 once) then of course the group's trademark game; Uno.

Afterward the lot of us ate at Hollywood Grill(I think that was the name) where I had some of the best conversations I've had that didn't require a keyboard in quite some time. Twas a blast hanging out there while trying to maintain eye contact. =P With the DAS meetings moved to Saturday, I should be able to do this monthly thus hopefully giving me at least one good day a month for a while.

Well...back to the grind...


---------------- Now playing: Sabaton - Ghost Division via FoxyTunes

Starting off with the news. First up...not the most dignified way to go but at least it was doing something he enjoyed. That must've been one damn good movie.

Next up. I love it when muggers get owned.

Lastly: As far as I'm concerned he may have a real life Dr. Doom among us.

Pretty much declaring my summer over as of last week when it was announced that my hours were cut. There's your reward for hard work for ya. I know the usual "be glad you have a job" line goes here but once you factor in the usual expenses...Yeah, it blows that much. Have to cut even more expenses though how that'll work I'm not sure yet. Maybe I can wait on those break pad repairs on my car? Oh well, as it stands now the only thing I have to look forward to this summer is the release of The Conduit as the funds paying for that won't be from my bank account.

Of course I may not even have a TV to play it on as a certain someone has made less than subtle approaches at trying to get it back without actually just asking for it.  Suggesting that my broken TV will somehow rust in the basement? I was originally biding my time to get it fixed as it's not a real priority but I may just trash it just to shut my dad the Hell up. Then again it was a pretty damn cool TV despite it being just & old fashion & not plasma or CRT. Anyone have a wild guess on how much it'd cost to fix a TV that had lightning damage anyway? Still debating if it's even worth fixing.

For no real reason other than boredom I youtubed some of my favorite hentai titles to see what would pop up. Turns out a few clips did make it to the site. You may have to log into your account if you have one since some of them have been unfairly flagged.

Viper GTS

Angel Blade- Sorry could only find the theme song.

Daiakuji: Xena Buster- Hmm not sure what the wedding is about. I do have the last dvd of the series but my TV was fried by lightning before I had the chance to watch it. Could have sworn the little girl was his aunt. Until I get a better TV(the one I'm borrowing isn't good enough to watch hentai on) I'll have to wait & see later.

Nightmare Campus- Music video from probably my favorite action/hentai ever. Think Devilman, add in some sex & there ya go. Like Angel Blade, I wish the creators would finish the damn thing.

Sexy Magical Girl- Another music video. Might want to lower the volume. Not a real good song used.


---------------- Now playing: Michael Angelo Batio - I Do For You via FoxyTunes

Kinda combining last week's in here since I forgot but ah well. First up, I know little kids have been able to pull off murder these days but now they can add rape to the list. I'd tip my hat to 'em if I wore hats...The article mentions sexting briefly but CNN had went a bit more into that with a story last week. Ugh. What's this world coming to where young girls can't send raunchy pics of themselves to people? Yet people still think sending nude baby pictures is still cute. Ugh again...

On a literally brighter note. Could you imagine having a car that runs on that thing? I could speed over the Atlantic Ocean with no problem.

Oh & trumping all of that: Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier which is coming out in the US later this month. Doesn't seem to be connected to the GBA games which is good since I never got OG 2...due to the fact that I never finished the first OG game.
