on “finishing” an MMo: SWtoR Assassin

| January 29, 2012

[There will be SPOILERS, you have been warned.] Warning: This is going to be disjointed as hell because a) I’m writing it over the span of several days in various states of kid-managemen and b) No one is paying me to do this, so what do I care? :) SO.  I got my assassin to [...]

thoughts on SWtoR

| January 15, 2012

Q: People say “wow” out loud for WoW – are they going to say “swatter” for SWtoR? So.  Yeah, this happened.  I was completely planning on skipping this game because… another Star Wars game, who cares, right?  (Don’t answer that!) However, two of my real life friends were excited about playing and I like playing [...]

MMO pet class overview/tour

| September 13, 2011

It occurred to me the other day, or week, or year, that I pretty much just play MMOs for the pet classes.  Meaning, I’ve played quite a few.  Maybe not as many as hardcore gamers, but certainly more than your average grandmother or Chilean chef. This got me thinking about why this might be.  I [...]

trying out another MMO: Age of Conan

| August 18, 2011

I installed this one a month or so ago on a whim.  Well, kind of a whim. I mean, there was some intention to it: I was thinking about writing a series of posts about pet classes in various MMOs and realized I hadn’t played Conan yet.  Still, it was kinda whim-ish. I mean, I [...]

Remember when…

| August 24, 2009

This came around? I don’t really, but I remember that the guitar part was fairly simple and I could almost play it passably.  How strange that they are what they are now, and that they spawned SO many (poor) imitators.  This wasn’t the first single…in fact it was the last, but for some reason it’s [...]

So Best Buy is selling guitar amps now?

| March 12, 2009

and not just kid shit.  They’ve had the little stuff for a while.  But evidently now it’s getting serious. I stopped into one on my lunch break to check out some laptops (I HATE the new layouts they’ve got in all the stores now btw…feels way too…I dunno, off), and I was greeted by a [...]

Vanilla & Hammer….together again. In Utah? WTF

| March 10, 2009

From Newsweek, via Ta-Nehisi, wtf! Wow and quadruple wow. So, so rich.  And creamy! Oh gawd, it’s sour, sour sour. Food poisoning.  Maybe.

what…the…fu

ck? Discuss. PS. The Japanese are WEIRD.

this story needs more press

| December 19, 2008

I don’t usually post for single links (but who knows, maybe I’ll start, some things do need more discussion) but this story was so vile that I had to. Plainclothes police officers beat and attempt to kidnap a 12 year old girl.  Father charged with assaulting police officers for trying to stop 3 men from [...]
