Skoal!

WTF?

Did Larry Flynt just buy Starbucks?

More Rose, just for the hell of it.

Greetings from Hyboria

Two days into the the pre-launch...and well, quite impressed so far. AoC launched with some of the typical MMO glitchiness, but still promises to be a stellar game. The graphics are the most amazing out there for the genre, the story lines are beyond belief (if you take the time). The PvP is a bit shitty at the moment, mainly because of the typical spawn camping that you find in most FPS games. Yes, some people still get great pleasure sitting at the graveyard and killing players over and over and over and over again. Yes, killing me when I rez with 2% health is quite challenging, I get it. Now listen to your mother and go take the trash out. Seriously, though, most MMOers will accuse campers of being twelve year old dorks. This is usually true. In the case of AoC, however, and given the extremely mature nature of the game, if you are a parent and you let your child play this game, you should be forced to row a slaveship across the Hyborian Sea in a skimpy, skimpy loin cloth.

You're welcome.

Ten-ish days

Pre-ordered and counting down the days. While I am not officially quitting World of Warcraft, yet, the end is definitely near. Dark Age of Conan shows a lot of promise (but so have others). Apparently this game is designed to blow up my computer. Not as bad as Crysis, but fricking close. I am going to start driving to Minneapolis on the weekends to panhandle for quarters so I can upgrade my video card. Look for me on Hennepin and 5th in the morning, and moving to the Washington Avenue bridge late afternoons ( I will be wearing my Berryman Jumped From Here T-shirt for extra-added pity begging).

Random

Completely random photo? Don't know. I "googled" (amazing how that has been verbed ain't it?) and came up with a photo of randomness. But since it was only a small sample of the interweb, due to the search term, it can't be completely random. I don't know. Ask Chris. Or have a seance and ask Philip K. Dick.

Either way, just haven't posted in a few days because of work and laziness. So there you go. Random.
