We've been on this topic before. A thousand times.

Comment Commentary

Alex- I've already done that, like, a thousand times. I will say that I preferred the book, though. The movie was too artsy, even for my tastes.

Shin- ..I really don't know what to say in response to that. There's nothing to say, I think, so I'll just put a "o_O" here and move on.

Alea- Burritos > (tacos + fajitas) x Taco Bell's cinnamon twists

Azure- I bet you do. :/

Godel- I've forgotten to mention that my White Ninja doodles were entirely off-model and looked more like something out of VGcats with a dildo on its head.

My brother decided to buy SSX3. God, what a heap of trash that game is. I played it for a couple of hours, then whipped out Tony Hawk, just to compare the gameplay. THPS / THUG feels so much sleeker, faster-paced, and refined, with about ten times more movies.

Admittedly, THUG has some annoying dialogue, but SSX takes the "..Did that white guy just go 'YEAAAAAAAH, BO-YEE!'" award, hands down. It's frustrating.

On the other hand, SSX has Fischerspooner and The Caesars.. So I guess it evens out.

A RANDOM TOPIC CHANGE EXECUTED WITH NINJA-LIKE PRECISION.

My mom was cleaning this room the other day, and she put a magnet clipboard on the computer. I was going to break something.

Actually, she really cleaned it today while I was at school. There's nothing on the ground, and the desk is (more or less) uncluttered. It is unnerving. Things aren't right when they're clean.

I got all excited when I found out that Ted Leo and the Pharmacists were going to be on Conan O'Brien. Then I realized that they were on last Friday, and not this one. A similar thing happened when Pixies were gonna be on PBS or whatever. Since then, I have made it my mission to check my favorite bands' websites every friggin' day, just so I don't miss anything.

I went to the mall tonight (rather late, actually- I got there around 6:30), and met up with a few friends. Normally, things are cool there, but when it's on Friday nights things get jacked up. When your friends know all of those odd punk/goth/druggie arcade junkies who spend all their time in there and they have their little conversations while you're standing there with nothing to say to anybody, it's not very great.

On the other hand, I got my very special seventeen-year-old friend to hook me up with the wrapped-in-plastic Saikano Volume 3 today. I've only read the first four pages, so I can't rant about that quite yet.

I left around 8:30, and by then it was pouring rain. My dad had to drop off all those games and movies we rented at Hollywood Video, and getting over there was hell. We came to a train track crossing, which had the little safety rails down even though there was no train. We sat there for fifteen minutes, and people started doing WAY illegal u-turns and pulling up the rails so their cars could get through. Police came, and it was funny. All the crazy ghetto folks fled.

Closing statement: If you're ever bored in an arcade, find the nearest shooting game (preferrably one with just one screen), use both guns, and go dual-wielding on some zombie-slash-terrorist ass. It's exhilirating.

EDIT: For whatever reason, Come On Pilgrim constantly reminds me of FLCL. If I were to ever do an AMV, it would be Isla de Encanta on FLCL. It'd be friggin' sweet.

ANOTHER EDIT: If you find any enjoyment in the novelty of online quizzes, especially if you know anything about Shin Megami Tensei, click here. It's good fun. No pictures, though.
