Oh, *yeah*, Square Enix?

WELL YOU CAN’T STOP ALL OF US I’m being serious. My reaction to that was to get even more inspired about MY BRILLIANT THING. I looked at the screenshots and thought, “you know, I should probably look...

Persistence of location

There used to be an empty lot I had to go through on my way to the mall. One morning at the end of March or beginning of April, still sleepy, I was walking to the mall, and found that there was...

I love this comic. Franziska is the best character and if you don’t agree then you are wrong.

Replayed Apollo Justice

Screw the stupid Edgeworth game – what the world needs is a game where Lamiroir and Machi solve crimes. I will also accept fanfic. No, people, just think about this for five seconds. This would be...

Successfully acquired rice cooker off Craigslist for 1000 yen. (Not from the guy before, from another guy.) The rice is soaking, and shortly I shall test it. Went to Koishikawa Kourakuen. In January,...

I might be playing WoW again.

So we’ve got Varian Wrynn who leads the humans, and Thrall who leads the orcs. And Thrall is the nice one who reads books and sincerely regrets the necessity of ripping your legs off, and Varian is the...

I’m a bad person.

Apparently there have been leaks about the next WoW expansion? I can tell I’m not really invested in the canonical WoW storyline because: 1) It didn’t even occur to me not to read the spoilers. It...

Thrall makes bad decisions.

Expansion spoilers again. You put Garrosh in charge, Thrall? Seriously? He tried to kill you, like, five minutes ago. Didn’t apologize or anything! And now you are putting him in charge. Yes, I know,...

Too much WoW + rereading Queens’ Play =

I dreamed that Obama was forced to participate in a gladiatorial competition, and he gave away his true identity when he was forced to use his signature martial arts move to end a fight.

There are kids on my LAWN.

So there’s anime and video game merchandise and advertising all over Japan, like you’d expect, and a lot of it I recognize. There’s Pokemon, Fullmetal Alchemist, D. Grey Man, Dragon Ball, Dragon Quest,...

I don’t care what Mom says, my hair looks fine.

In last night’s dream the demon biologist who was driving me to the session of the Dark Congress pulled over so she could look at the hummingbirds. They were the size of swans, flying in repetitive...

This cutscene is why I love Disgaea.

This cutscene right here. It’s probably better to watch it with the sound turned off – Aramis’s VA is not going to be anywhere near as good as what you’re imagining. (The Power Rangers one is good, too.)

Fizzle fft

I played Yume Nikki for fifteen minutes before dinner, and I still feel weird. In between then and now I reread Fire Logic. This book is very convinced of itself and its own aesthetic and moral...

The sorts of problems I have.

The drawback of naming your Pokemon after Georgette Heyer protagonists is that you end up splitting up couples, what with leaving Sophy in the box all the time once you get a better ground-type, while...

I beat Professor Layton and Pandora’s Box yesterday.

Do you guys want to know how it ends? Okay, this is how it ends. They wake up and it was all a dream, except for the parts that weren’t a dream. I hear the next one’s going to be called “Professor...

I’m A Terrible Human Being, Part 515

I googled “Scribblenauts walkthrough.” It strikes me as unfair that you can only summon Judeo-Christian and Egyptian religious figures. There are all sorts of situations in the game which I think...

Warning: Ill-natured post.

So I’ve been looking at the message board for a Facebook game. I know that I yelled at my cold cream the other day, and I made libelous remarks about Octavia Butler due to my displeasure at her having...

It’s bad decision time again!

Three small bets I just made with myself: 1) I bet the City of Heroes website is red or blue. (I won – both.) 2) I bet the EVE Online website is black. (I lost, it’s brown.) 3) I bet the Star Trek...

Still snowing!

I want to go out in the snow, but I’m afraid to. I’m afraid because there’s a small swimming pool out in the yard somewhere… and I can’t tell exactly where. Someone stop me from playing EVE Online and...

How to Play EVE Online

1) Do the tutorial mission! 2) Do the first three career-path mission sets! They will be easy and will give you the same items over and over! You can sell the extras? 2a) At the end they will recommend...
