I took the kids to see Terminator Salvation on Saturday, and I must say, I was rather pleased with it, on the level of sheer entertainment. My review will be in the format similiar to the Ruthlessreview's 80's action guide.( Cut to not be a movie spoiler! )

My boss, a loyal Parrothead to the bitter end, told me about this Buffett inspired incident.
http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_11385784?source=rss
I mean, seriously, what the fuck? A Bronze Star w/2 Oak Leaf Clusters Former Green Beret wounded in Afghanistan beaten to death over Jimmy Buffett? Nothing against Buffett (though he's no Michael McDonald), but who does such a thing in this country? I could understand if he was beaten to death outside a Mosque in Kabul for pissing on the local Iman's favorite goat, but this was here in the States. I tell you one thing. They better not release those names of those two fucks, because they are dead men. The Spec Ops community doesn't take too kindly on losing their own, especially for something so retarded and unnecessary. Way to piss off the people who's job it is is to make people disappear into the night and fog. Fuckin' Colorado...

|
| My life can be summed up as... |
[24 Dec 2008|04:23pm] |
1) What was your FIRST video game console?
Teddy Ruxpin, then the Funkaho 2600, with boss wood paneling and joysticks that made sense.
2) Name a few games you played on said console.
(On Ruxpin) I recorded over a part on my dad's Jan and Dean tape on "Dead Man's Curve" where I declared that my brother farted. (On Atari) Empire Strikes back, Space Invaders, Knight Rider, and something where you were a block trying to fuck another block or something. At least that's what it looked like...
3) Excluding handhelds, how many VG consoles do you own presently?
None. My beast of a compy for Warhammer Online takes enough of my time, much less the future wife and kids.
4) Were you a Street Fighter nut? Any character in particular?
I always had a love/hate relationship with this game, because virtually every boy I knew in arcade settings would play Ryu or Ken and try to do some move other than that blue fire shit and fuck it up. I liked the green guy because he could give you epilepsy.
5) Do you think Capcom is a FUCKING awesome company with kickass character designs?
Yeah, like the guy who designed Mega Man, right? A blue guy who's head looks like a dong and shoots white pellets? Kick ass indeed, meatgazers.
6) Here's the scenario.. You had some friends over and you all ate FRIED CHICKEN! After the meal you all decide to play some video games. As your friend reaches for a controller you notice his/her hands are very "greasy." Are you the type that would insist they wash their hands before pawing the controller, or is it no big deal?
As most gamers I knew were greasy to begin with, fried chicken fingers seemed a moot point.
7) What's your favorite RPG/Action RPG?
Pinball Quest. You rescued a princess and fought satan as a pinball man.
8) Do you prefer 2D games or 3D games?
I just plug it in the wall outlet, thus negating the need for batteries.
9) Are you an SNK fan?
Who isn't a fan of the Soviet Council of People's Commisars?
9) Are you good at DDR?
I believe my icon speaks for itself, comrade!
10) Who wants to kick that dog's ass from Duck Hunt?
It's just a video game. I mean, seriously.
11) Have you skipped out on important events in life because of video games?
Apparently, saving Walachia from the clutches of Count Dracula was no excuse to duck my great aunt's funeral.
12) Do you listen to video game music?
Not so much, but covers based on video game music, that's toe tappin' fun!
13) Have you ever cosplayed a VG character?
I cosplayed that one SS guy in Call of Duty. You know, that video game they write all those books about for some reason (no strategy guides inside of ANY of them), and take those real shitty b/w screenshots of?
14) Have you ever been in an arcade playing a fighting game, KICKING ASS, and then some 6 year old Asian kid comes in and OWNS YOU??
Yeah, then after he peepeed in my lemon coke, he got on his rickshaw and got about halfway out the acrade when his manchu braid got caught in the spoke, causing him to fall on his dirty knees and spill all the rice in his pockets.
15) Name three games you would love to see remakes of if it was done properly
The desperately need to remake Dragonquest, but where it can actually be played instead of watched for 4 seconds before you have to pump more quarters in. I wouldn't mind Super Solvers being remade into a 1st player shooter either. I hear there's a real kick ass live action version of Tokyo Wars going on in some arcade in Iraq right now.
16) Mario or Sonic?
Jell-o.
17) When a movie shows up in the theaters, let's use Spider-man as an example, are you likely to buy the GAME version?
I was wondering why the Super Mario Bros didn't make much sense after the movie, but apparently, it was based on some show with a wrestler and a talking toilet brush.
18) What is your LEAST favorite genre of video games? (ex. fighting, sports, shooters, etc.)
Educational ones. I mean, Number Munchers didn't teach me nearly as much about the real world as Burger Time did.
19) Is there a game out there that you feel was unique and didn't get enough love?
Michael Andretti's Grand Prix Challenge didn't nearly get as much love as Mario Andretti's Snort Coke Off of a Stripper's Ass and Get Drunk and Pass Out Bonanza.
20) Have you ever verbally abused a game because you couldn't beat one of the levels and/or bosses?
No. It just "fell down the stairs".
21) Do you own any VG apparel?
I have a pair of socks that look like Goombas, but I guess that doesn't count.
22) What are your thoughts on the live-action Super Mario Bros movie?
When will the killing stop?
23) On that note, what did you think about the live-action Street Fighter movie?
Much better than Xanadu, but not nearly as much fighting as in the latter.
24) Who's hottest out of the KOF chicks?
The one with Aids. They have nothing to lose.
25) Do you say "old-school" a lot when you're having a VG conversation with others?
No, but I usually refer to my neck of the VG woods as "Third Coast", so I don't get caught up in the rivalry.
26) Have you ever lent someone a game and they returned it to you damaged?
No, but my brother lost a game when his friend claimed that he brought it back but since we weren't home, buried it in the front yard somewhere. Seems like an open and shut case to me.
27) Do you own any imported games?
I'm a fan of Mario High Life. It's the champagne of video games!
28) Are you ready for this meme to be over, or could you keep going?
I don't really have to finish this meme, you know. You asked me these fucking questions.
29) In this scenario, let's pretend you're going to get a video game tattoo! What would you get and where?
In this scenario, let's pretend you're retarded. Except you're actually just incompetent.
30) Have you ever cried after you beat a game? If so why?
That's usually how most Monopoly games end, but in the end, no one is a winner at Monopoly. Remember this, my son.

Another Vets day rolls by... things up here went suprisingly well at work. People up here don't see me as some fucking wannabe wacko 'Nam vet guy, and that makes me glad. I understand, other than my former coworkers being a bunch of fuckin' douches, that perhaps I went too much into what I did and what I learned from the good ol' Army. Was I an active duty groundpounder? No, I was not. I was a 09S (Commisioned Officer Candidate) contracted through the Army while at college. Upon my graduation and completion of the MS programs set forth by the United States Army Reserve Officer Training Corps, I was to receive my butter bars and report for duty "as per the needs of the Army." I was gunning for Armor, as my grandfather was back in his days in, but given my lack of focus at the time due to my weakness of my personal life outside the Army, I certainly would've ended up in Chemical Corps or overseeing KP duty somewhere in South Korea. I ended up dropping out of college, and subsequently, reneging on my contract, having to pay back Uncle Sam for all the $$ (tuition, books, plus all the monthly stipend checks I was getting) plus interest. Mind you, this was prior to 11SEP2001, so I still had the option of paying it back. Though I regretted the reasons for my leaving the Army, (which while I did not excel at physically (my APFT scores were not the greatest), I did well in all other fields, such as communications protocol, OPORDERs, landnav, etc. I was in at a time when Clinton was in charge, so funding was horridly bare. We trained with rubber rifles, qualified with hand me hand me down M16A1s from the Nasty Guard, which we would have to clean afterwards (which took several hours, because they would purposely foul up the chambers and receivers by fucking never cleaning them and rolling the fuckers around in the dirt), and had to improvise in various ways with Vietnam era equipment that would've made any Marine proud.) I never regretted my service, swearing the sacred Oath, or the good times I had sloggin' it out at Camp Bullis, having my name butchered by everyone (My platoon just called me "Klondike" because it was easier - yeah, thanks, Horvath), and other fond memories puttin' around Ft. Sam. Happy Veterans day, brothers and sisters in arms.
Edit: I had planned a further section on my thoughts on Barack Obama and the election, but my weary body dictates otherwise, so I shall have to reconvene it another day. Change is coming, but not in the way you think...

It's the 7th anniversary of 11SEP2001. Whether you're a flamin' lib, hard line right winger, war bird, or dove, or anything in between, take a moment today to reflect in silence the horror wrought upon our soil as we got a taste firsthand of the "real world" beyond our borders, and keep those families in your thoughts today. We all may not agree on the war or anything of the nature, but in our heart of hearts, we are all Americans, and we can all agree that it was indeed a day we truly united.

Oh man, appparently, I fuckin' rock the bluesgrass/crappy folk music scene, but haven't seen a DIME!!! My background rules all, including your paisley soul! I'm also a middle aged homo, among other things. Sorry, ladies. This massage therapist is spoken for!
Oh yeah, and I moved to Carrollton this week. I'll be starting at the infamous "basement" of our flagship store, the Dallas RDC, driving and not managing a bunch of ungrateful miscreants. If they only knew my fame in the music world...
I'll still be online for those who are trying to track me down. Phone numbers will change, but will post as I find them out. The wedding is still on, like Donkey Kong, but the date is tentative. Also, I'm lookin' at The Cult on Metal Mania, and wondered how Ian Astbury could score so much dressed like Bon Jovi's wardrobe consultant.
In case I haven't tortured anyone else with the hardcore wizard beats!

This season of BSG has been bullshit! I shant spoil it, but each episode ends with you going "What the fuck?" Oh, yeah, and we're moving in the next few months. Though our efforts (mainly Susan's, admittedly) have helped other soldiers/marines/sailors/airmen get proper steps towards medication cutback (and not fucking die from mixed medication), we would like a fresh start as treatments at Fort Sam have started to shift in the negatory towards Susan from "the true believers", and we are fucking tired of the neighbors' treatment of us and the kids. If you want to call her the whore of the neighborhood or me the lazy fill in, that's fine. But don't take it out on our children by telling yours not to play with ours. No more living in Ranger Retard's shadow. At the new place, it'll almost be like he never existed... at least for the public view. We're looking at the Metroplex area, near the outskirts of Fort Worth or Dallas, respectfully. Gonna get some land, a nice house, and maybe get that bomb shelter I always wanted. ^_^ Don't worry, though, my friends still here. We plan to come into town once a month to let the kids visit Paw Paw and G-Ma, and visit our friends in town. Ugh, nappy time. I'll write more later.

Yeah, so I'm sure by now, you've all heard of the infamous 2 girls 1 cup website. If not, it is one of the most hilarious, and by hilarious, I mean horrifying and life altering sites I've ever seen. It's not anything you'll find on Youtube, but you can find plenty of reactions filmed for said page. I'll post it for reference, but I must warn you, it's pretty foul. Not to give too much away, but it involves poo, in a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad way (as opposed to a goood way?)
The offending page in question, for those who did not heed my warning
Anyhoo, a reaction clip from one of my favored comedy troupes, Mail Order Comedy! ^_^
The rise and fall of a theme song master
The monkeys don't do it...
Eerily more entertaining than the actual film...
Finally, some good ol' fashioned ventriloquism!
Enjoy! And I didn't cut it, 'cause I'm a dick! ^_^
