So… The next Star Wars game sounds like it could be fun. But I’d have to get a “next generation” console to play it (or shouldn’t it be a “current generation” console now?). The game is called Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, which is of course SW:TFU for short. TFU also stands for The Fuckest Uppest as the show Spaced has taught me. Thus, I am amused.

What’s big and red and has no nose? I don’t know. A big car? A red star? Russia on some maps? Lot’s of stuff. Who cares?

I’ve finally got myself an idea for the next thing I’ll be writing all worked out. Now just to get past my self-induced weariness and get to work. Then you’ll all pay.

Dude, about an hour ago I bled all over a floor. It was awesome.

A friend of mine told me he had a dream a few nights ago in which I tried alcohol for the first time. Before long I was angrily accusing everyone of being zombies and threatening to kill them. That seems very likely to me as far as what would happen if I became a drinker.

Haiku!

Please Do Not Panic.
The world will end soon enough.
Just sit down and wait.

Let’s see, what else is new? A couple weeks ago I watched Blacula at work and I was dissapointed that a co-worker who is about 26 or so had never heard of it. Last night I brought in some Monty Python’s Flying Circus and a guy about thirty didn’t know what it was. Blacula I can forgive, but not knowing what Monty Python is? That’s just wrong.

And I don’t have much else to say. Weather’s nice. Maybe I’ll go look at it.

Television screens are a damn lot harder to smash than I ever would have thought. I took four swings at it with Huitzilopotchli Broadbent (that’s my baseball bat) and it wasn’t even cracked. Wade took a couple swings too and it did not care. It wasn’t until we smashed the frame and came at it from behind that we finally were able to break glass.

From that point on the thing was a wuss, so when the televisions rise against us, don’t make the mistake of going for the screen. Unless it was just that model that had an unusually solid glass covering… I may have to do more research.

Haiku!

Got no ovaries.
I’ll just have to live with that.
Until I buy some.

I was certain we were done with the snow here was over and done with, but we must’ve got seventy-five metres worth today. Or something. At any rate we got a lot of snow and I didn’t expect it. Between this keeping me from wanting to go outside and yesterday being a holiday so most everything was closed I may have to write this weekend off as sub-mediocre. Except for that television-smashing. That was cool.

I have been doing a little better with having a social life this last week or two. Only a little, but anything is improvement. Now to do something about my work ethic (that is for things other than my job) and I will have it goin’ on.

I do a lot of crossword puzzles at work (it keeps the mind off of how much of my life is being wasted) and a few weeks ago I came across a puzzler. The clue was “Fictional Character in the Marvel Comics Universe.” Now this is the sort of thing I ought to know. I may not know much when it all comes down to it, but this? This is my niche. But I didn’t get it. It was three letters and the middle one was “P”. The only thing that could fit would be Ape. And while there is a character named Ape (this Morlock in a toque who, if I remember correctly was a shapeshifter) there’s no way in heck he’s making it into a crossword. Especially one made for the South Shore of Nova Scotia’s Out and About section. But last night I saw the answers. It was “Ape”. What the chunks? Honestly?

Ah well. Good for Ape, I guess. Too bad I’m pretty sure he’s dead in the comics. But c’est la vie.

Haiku!

It’s a big bullet.
Shot from the world’s biggest gun.
It can break your soul.

Watched the Strangers With Candy movie yesterday. I had seen some people on the Internet complaining about it, but I liked it. People on the Internet complain too much. And we’ve been watching downloads of Duckman lately too. There’s a show that deserves to be on DVD.

Reoun an rtehr. Abg bein tkin afhbk ah, tba ggmibm, atihn inuin. R aybiyn fhgahiun jghb’jo. Uhubn nhbybuanhb. But what can you do?

And that’s it for now.

Over the weekend I found out that it’s possible to set DVD players so they can play DVDs regardless of the Region-type. I always thought it was a technical limitation that kept us from watching European DVDs. Apparently it’s just companies trying to screw us over.

Anyhow, now I’ve got Spaced on DVD after watching not-quite-legal versions for so long.

In other news we have snow here now. I was quite liking not having it. And of course this city doesn’t know how to drive in the snow anymore, so I have to leave early for work. Winter blows for another reason today.
