And a new blog!!!
Well damnit, I haven't been around boards, those little "launch centers" and article places where posts are most common lately, YES I KNOW. I don't have time to take a s*** nowadays, seriously. I should be in bed, as my fiance so eloquently put it, but one can sacrifice sleep for the "business" as is the metaphrase down here...anyway, puns aside, work. What can I say about it...you can't EVER get used to it, but you just find the reasons to do it. Sometimes better than others.
During the past few days, there's been some disturbing revelations exposed upon CNN and other sources (such as my head) and McDonalds as well!! Firstly, a couple weeks ago, CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta did a short article on HIV in america...amongst the populus. Most infected city amongst Black american's reigns supreme in my own town!!! Which I will fail to specify due to legal issues, but Washington, DC came close behind by just 4%; giving the total of HIV infected Black americans within one city in my home town 84%. So you remember that s*** about girls between ages 14 and 21 actually HAVING HIV or HPV??? Yeah, there's no need to get frisky around here...your s*** will end up looking like a foot.
Same thing for the dudes; you can just TELL who is and who isn't infected. They all look the same, it's disturbing. When crowds of people came flocking through the door? I got TERRFIED. If somebody yawned without covering their mouths that's all it took!!!..........I think. But, f*** it I wasn't taking any chances. Now here are some numbers for those of you who aren't mathematically inclined, do not live in this country and so therefore don't pay attention to our "Census Beaureu" or "Center for Disease Control and Prevention":
168,000 people live in this particular city.
Of that value, 74% are Black.
That amounts to about 110,000 give or take.
84% of that amounts to about 92,000.
THAT'S ALOT OF DAMN PEOPLE...in ONE f***ing city. For the love of everything holy! Keep your f***king pants on!!!!! If Jesus, whom they "love" so much, came back RIGHT NOW, I'd suggest he wear a gas mask and a radiation suit. Because that's just ONE city, with ONE race of people, in ONE MUTHA F***KING COUNTRY!!! *shudders at the thought* I mean c'mon. Everybody, just STOP DOING THE WILD THING ALREADY. If you were offended good, that means you were paying attention
Moving on, McDonald's SHRINKS the Southern S t y l e Chicken sandwhich when you order a combo meal. These bastards are geniuses at making people come back to eat their s***, but of course I'm not one of them, yet I can see how they psychologically play with people's minds. Brilliant.
Again, sorry for not being in the boards. ![]()
What else? This "one week off" needs to hurry up or something, I can't take it with these people anymore. But at LEAST the Olympics have begun!!!! Them dudes with the gymnastics-- I don't know how the HELL they do that?? But they can HAVE it. I told everybody to stop doing the wild thing, but I DID NOT say, that you had to lose it altogether
Then you notice it when they talk it's REAL tiny; like somebody fed them alum powder all their lives. All those muscles but the testosterone went elsewhere BUT the voice box
Damn. Guess that's the sacrifice they make eh?? Mwahahahahahahahahahaha.
To be yourself is all that you can do...
Catchy little song by Audioslave, put out around 2005 sometime I think. Reminded me of this moment I had with a customer today-- between the owner and the manager, there's differences. You get special stuff from the owner, from the manager: whole new ball game
Then again, all these customers want special treatment, and I get so tired of them. Every last one of them. It wears on your mind because if you were continuously conscious of what you were doing, you'd get depressed...immediately. It's different when working in a facility where you KNOW the people are clinically insane-- such as a mental institution, or psychology ward within a Juvenile detention center.
Seriously, we're dealing with uniforms. You can't be that damn stupid.
Anyway, the day I tried to live? I wallowed in the blood and mud with all the other pigs. Hey, singing "one more time around" I might do it, "one more time around" I might make it-- the day I tried to live. Been NEEDING to get back to my meteorology book and BOY I'm glad I did!!! What better way to take your mind off of people when learning about a subject that has NOTHING to do with people????! AMAZING!!!! I feel...liberated. Makes me wanna...liberate...my madness. Damn there's too many songs in the world.
What else? Sunday I had an off day, one that occurs in every fuschia moon, and that particular day I destroyed what neighbors I had left with the new pedals/cord. Great way to get rid of some "release"...what was my playlist while the folks were out (no there was no radio involved):
System of a Down
Slipknot
Tool
Killswitch Engage
Breaking Benjamin
Yeah. I need another knife.
And so there was this giant bomb...
Anyway, I suddenly felt the urge to fight with Bryan Fury in T5 and DR...then ghost battles on "ultra hard" and "Dark Lords" is not really a challenge anymore. Qudans, the "best Tekken player" said it best: "it's not who you play, it's how you play them". Same rules apply for tennis and I'm just 3rd Dan with Bryan. I need to play COD4 or something...but then I'm afraid it'll break my mental synapse I built for Bryan. Ah well!!!
What else? Hmm. Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory last night, it's an alright movie. Not as good as the original, yet Mr. Depp takes all his roles seriously. OH and, ABC family condones permiscuity...with f***in' mermaids.
Yeah, I wrote an astute detailed depiction of my guitar pedals, and no one had ANYTHING to comment on it. You guys must not have a music hobby or something.
E3 '08 Day 2 impressions...
Everybody has impressions...but I'm not everybody. I pulled a Saren just to get you to click this
Anyway, going over Gears 2, RE5, KZ2 and Project Origin, that's the only thing that tickled my fancy. All four of those games, by the way, rated M. What a shame...each containing intense violence. Another shame. RE5 makes better use of violence I should say-- this grandiose of grotesquely disturbing necessity involving large caches of weapons and slow moving protagonists. In other words: FREAKIN' AWESOME. That new trailer with the freaky-sqeak voice guy just really sends a bad message to you; why is HE so happy in this dark area of the world?
Besides that, '09 really needs to hurry up now.
Yes Saren I know, Emblems suck. But, fun to get and look at and afterwards, "say I got one of those? Eh...what's for dinner I wonder..."
Um, if you walked into a store looking for school uniforms, asked the sales person if they SOLD uniforms (with signs everywhere stating you sold them), they said "yes", and you asked where they were, and the sales person points towards the back of the store where in LARGE BOLD LETTERS says: "SCHOOL UNIFORM CENTER"...then YOU ask: "Where?"
Tha-that's the type of s*** I gotta deal with...oh and it get's worse. Imagine having many different sizes for uniforms, and you were to call this uniform store asking for prices OF the uniforms...would the BEST approach be:
"How much are they?"
"What type of specials do you have?"
"I need uniforms for boy/girl, what prices do you have?"
If you answered the third one, you're WRONG. F***in' wrong. That's way too specific and time saving, you gotta answer with the FIRST one. That way the sales person has to read virtually every price for your MANY different sizes (including boy or girl)-- and EVEN if the salesperson asked if it was for a boy/girl, it doesn't matter!! *cough* Anyway, got the Boss ML-2 Metal Core pedal this morning and a...monster cable. What a dream of a distortion pedal. It's like this cross between Killswitch Engage and Slipknot, it's beautiful. Only $149. Money well spent I should say-- why? I dunno, a good hobbyist likes good equipment I suppose. So now it's a:
Boss MD-2 Mega Distortion (more massive bottom end to destroy the neighbors but a little noisy)
Boss DS-2 Turbo Distortion with switch (Not as turbo as it sounds but effective when you need to lighten it up a bit, great for Punk Rock)
Boss ML-2 Metal Core (If you love metal, Nu metal, thrash etc., get this pedal. Now.)
Arion Metal Master (Has a rooted Metallica/Ozzy feel to it, dual input gives it some versatility)
These things run through a Fender FM212R 100W greenbacker. Trust me, I've never EVER used the full volume on this damn thing, but I need to find a reason...uh, not much of a guitar but it is a Cort M200. Needa get a damn...Ibanez or Schecter. Oh well.
This should pretty much ease the noise within my head.
LASTLY!!! Who are the monkey's playing that RE5 demo???? It's like they're shooting at the f***in' wall MOST of the time!! I'm like damn! Have you EVER played A version of RE4?? There's like a thousand of them out there by now?? Tell you what, get the Wii version and work on your hand-eye coordination, I swear. Ontop of that, the "non-zombies" have the same death animations, same "walking towards you" attitude, but once they get ON you that's a different story. So if you can shoot RIGHT and maneuver without getting yourself into too much trouble, you could AVOID getting grabbed...like the person playing that RE5 demo failed to demonstrate to the newbies. Urgh...
More money means less exclusivity...
WELL it's been a while, hasn't it? JACK THE RIPPER. Ahem. So yeah, I haven't been around. Sorry. It's E3 suddenly, and I wasn't ready for it to be honest. Not like E3 on gamespot was gonna be special this year right? Right. But anyway, figured I'd try to get one of those emblems of "virtually there" for the press conferences, so I got the screen going at work (not necessarily watching it) and it's Nintendo first, then Sony. I got the Sony emblem (and during that time I was getting my truck serviced), but I didn't get the Nintendo emblem. Wtf? I watched Nintendo for MUCH longer than Sony-- like, as soon as Nintendo started yapping right near to the end. Anyway, then this other one I got about "sushi" doesn't make much sense...but it does look cool
New level. 24. Feel happy for ME because I didn't see this coming either-- yeah sorry I'm not around the boards like you're used to? I'm hardly playing video games so that's not really taking up my time. Wish I could hear from my fiance, but that's another issue...to resolve. Okay to the point of the TOPIC:
Square Enix sold out to Microsoft as Capcom did for the sake of moo-lah-lah. So now Microsoft has Fable AND Final Fantasy. Great. Fable was the whole "oh yeah we got this game versus Final Fantasy" for the Xbox owners. Hate the gaming industry. But it's all about moo-lah-lah
At least Resident Evil 5 looks awesome, God of War III was announced, Resistance 2 is this year, and...I heard (if anybody cares anymore) that Namco intended to release some additional info about Tekken 6!!!
*crickets*
Er, so yeah look out for that. Flippin' yahoos. Um, what did you pasty amigos think about Shaun White's demonstration in the Nintendo Press Conference with that old lady with the glasses??
EDIT:
Alright, after an evaluation of various blogs, the Nintendo press conference deserves a C minus. Thank you. Um, forgot to mention I caught this stupid cold bug from one of my employees, I intend to purchase a Boss ML-2 distortion pedal tomorrow morning before heading in for work, plus a few new cables to reduce noise and improve input signals. What reason? Hell if I know, probably the last pedal I'll ever buy...until I want to get a Noise Gate suppressor and MT-2. THEN in the first time in weeks I actually took MGS4 out of the PS3!!! Imagine that! What did I replace it with? Tekken 4, then Tekken 5. T5 pisses me off SO bad, can't stand it but it's fun to get those rankings. Oops, didn't I just say I wasn't gaming very often...
