Merry X-Mas!

Give to your local Marine Corps Toys for Tots. Trained killers know where you live and shop. =D

An edit for those of you who demand high-quality posts from me: http://www.questionsleep.com/mindspill/?p=348

Jhonen Vasquez finds Dead Space lacking. It could be. I haven't played the game, but the description he gave sounds unbias and well-balanced. Thoughts?

As anyone with a brain and a calendar can tell you, Halloween is just around the corner. Who can resist getting in the season for such a fun time of year? No one, that's who.

In addition to dressing up as Great Cthulhu this year, I'll also be enjoying some spooooky and scary games that I have in my library. I started off my holiday-themed gaming yesterday with House of the Dead 2 & 3, on the Wii (and 2 is just as frustrating as it was in the arcades, but not AS frustrating as the first HoD). So I ask you, my loyal and spirited (heh, spirit. See what I did there?) readers, what (if any) will be YOUR spooky game choices this time o' year? Leave me a comment with your list if you want. It might even make me pick up a game or two if it sounds interesting.

Here's mine (in no particular order):

House of the Dead 2 and 3: Return (Wii)
Silent Hill 2 and 4 (Maybe 3 if I ever decide to buy it) (PS2)
Clock Tower 3 (I don't own any of the others due to lack of interest to play any of them through) (PS2)
Soul Reaver 1 and 2 (I really need to get around to playing my copy of the first Soul reaver, and this is the perfect excuse) (PS1 and PS2, respectively)
Dark Stalkers 3 (pret-ty fun stuff. Pret-ty fun...) (PS1)

I was thinking of playing Decap Attack, but I need to take a break from my Sega Genesis Collection. Happy gaming!

Happy zombie jesus day!

I've pretty much spent the day doing laundry and editing my mood theme. I picked a Wolverine theme because I'm a huge nerd.

Yesterday kind of sucked because I was supposed to see a friend of mine but she cancelled because of other obligations. Ah well. Maybe another time.

I hope everyone got plenty of candy this year instead of a terrifying visit from the Easter zombie.

Happy VD, folks. Spread it around.

"Omg Justin. You just made an immature joke about a lovely holiday. You're so immature!"

And my argument is for that is...you're right. And if you missed the joke, you're an idiot, so stfu.

Couples: quit using this day as an excuse to be good to your sigificant other/bf/gf/platonic life partner/"special friend" or what have you.

Single people: quit bitching about how you're alone, and that this day is designed to make single people feel like they're freaks o' nature for not having someone. If you're single but happy, then stfu. If you're single and unhappy then (for guys) lower your standards or stfu (chances are you're not a good enough catch to have such high standards anyway. So be grateful for what you can get), or (for girls) tits or gtfo. Either way, don't be that sad sack blogging about this day, lest I show up at your doorstep with a brown paper bag with a frowny face drawn on it.

One more thing: stfu.

Happy Zombie Jesus Day to everyone I didn't say it to on Sunday, go see Grindhouse if you have yet to, I'm going to be in North Carolina for the next three days, and if you need a reason to go see Grindhouse I'll give you three:

1. Quentin Tarintino's penis melts off

2. Kurt Russell screams like a woman

3. (the best reason of all, IMO) NAZI WEREWOLF WITH A MACHINE GUN!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.

That's right! MEEEEEEEEEE! I'll be getting out of this god forsaken place called Newport, and flying home to Baltimore.

noisrevni made this for me: http://www.elfyourself.com/?userid=814760ef4b06f74c4888f46G06121800

Apparently if I were an elf, I could dance like nobody's business. XD

I took this from Sam's journal.

Listen to the MP3

Keep listening to the MP3 no matter how much you may want to stop.

I passed this around work because I thought it was so good.

Thanksgiving was okay. I didn't spend it with my family, which is always a plus since I always feel terribly uneasy around all of them. I drove out to another part of Rhode Island with two Marines that I'm in charge of on weekends and holidays, and had Thanksgiving with a Sergeant that I work for. It was good times. Getting home was an adventure since it was a downpour the whole way. That, and I got lost because I had the bright idea of trying to find the local mall before we went home. After being lost for roughly an hour and a half, I found the right way home, and went to bed early again.

I woke up at 0530 because of a crazy dream I had about a bee landing on my eye. What kind of dream is that?! Who dreams about bees?! At least it was less intense than the dream I had the night before. In that dreams defense, it was about Ash from Evil Dead and Army of Darkness accidentally resurrecting a zombie overlord-type dealy in the basement of my old house.

Zombies are always cool. Cooler than ninjas, I would dare say. Hey! Someone should a movie about zombie ninjas! Or ninjas that fight zombies. Oh man....that would rock so hard.

But I digress from my rant about awesome undead ninjas and the like to continue my rant about my crappy morning. So I go to get a shower and no hot water. I still can't sleep, and I still have no idea what I should do with my day since anyone worth spending this day with is in another state or country.

Happy November 24th to me!

I log back on to find the most emo crap about Valentines Day. Grow up, please? No more, "My heart is black, it beats no more. I think I'll go cry. Then masturbate. Then cry AND masturbate." bullshit.

But I will do one thing regarding the big VD in my own, belated and slightly off kind of way. I took it from manic because he rocks, and I can. Here goes:

If there is someone on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (without the internet), then post this same sentence in your journal

Edit: It can also be anyone in general. Also, say who they are, and let em know how special they are to you.

A belated happy holiday to everyone. The past week or so was pretty damn good. I had a Merry Ramen Christmas, followed by a quick packing of the bags to go on a guilt trip after a surprise phone call by my mother. It was quite fantastical considering I never gave her my number. I have made pland to work on my Iori costume in March, and maybe even get a tattoo then. As for the new year, I'll be watchiing the Twilight Zone marathon as per my tradition. I also learned that Dress Blues are very difficult to DDR in. Thank you, Marine Corps, for making me sweat as if there were a torrential downpour in my shirt.

I recieved an early Christmas present from my good friend, Xuan, last night. It was a remake of Gambit. This was the most awesome toy I have ever recieved as a gift by far. It left me with a haunting urge, however. I immediately busted out X-Men vs Street Fighter for PS1, and proceeded to duke it out as my favorite characters. It didn't stop there, oh no my friends. Bloody Roar, SF Alpha 3, and Evil Zone just to name a few. These games may be old, true, they may be dated with their graphics and obscene amount of loading time, and yes, the fighting engine may be a little on the gh3y side, but I love them all. I felt I should post this to remind all of my friends who enjoy the gaming experience what it was like before the X Box took your souls. The jokes you would make about a particular character and the way they fight, or talk. Countless hours spent punishing button mashers with good fiends (sometimes the button masher WAS your friend XD). Maybe it's just me, but I doubt it. So this holiday before you take the wrapping off your new game and pop it in, take a classic out instead. Love your old games as much as you love your new ones.
