Been a while since we played UT.
Mainly because it wouldn’t run properly on mord’s lappy.
But now that it died and he’s waiting for new parts he’s dusted off his old compy and we had a couple of matches again today.
Needless to say he owned me pretty hard. Though it was a close one in my fav level “Gothic”

Though, this win of his on the galleon has to have been the most embarassing moment…
Definately not a headshot….

I used to be milk chocolate. But I’ve noticed that I’ve turned into a semi-bitter over time.

WTF am I talking about?
I’m not sure, personality, views on the world, all that kinda stuff I guess.

I used to be very easygoing, giving everyone the benefit of the doubt and I had an overall positive outlook on the world. Whenever things ‘d go south with people I’d always be the one to run after them to try and cheer them up and whenever I ended up being burnt by them I’d still just try to ignore the stupid things they did just to keep things friendly. I couldn’t stand the thought of having anyone dislike me.

But things have changed. Over time I’ve let too many people walk all over me, and the small irritations that piled up over the years, one growing on top of the other, into one huge festering mental boil eventually popped.
I never realised this before but a few days ago it dawned on me that I’ve really changed.

Being away from those I had to put up a friendly charade for and now living with someone who loves me enough for me to be able to be myself no matter what, has built a confidence in me that allows me to skip those people who aren’t worth my time without feeling any remorse or guilt. So yes I’ve turned a semi-bitter. But not a complete bitter-dark. I still love my friends, the ones who deserve the title (which is still most of them luckily). And I still enjoy life, heck probably moreso.

I think semi-bitter is a nice flavor of chocolate for life. It keeps a nice balance.
Too much sugar can kill you. And when you ween yourself off it, the less sweet things in life actually start to seem much sweeter on their own.

I’ve recently been doing some Christmas shopping, as much as I hate it.
And during our many trips to various shops I’ve been noticing something… strange….
My first encounter with these items was when I went to Home Depot to get chickenwire for my Anubis mask.
I pointed it out to Mord who at first thought I’d gone mad, but upon further inspection he had to agree with me.

Christmas Stockings… we’ve all seen them.
Even if some of us haven’t actually used them. We’ve still all seen them in at least a few movies and such right?

And….

…^This is what they look like. A festive big sock like object meant to hold presents… right?

Well, the following is what they seem to have been replaced with by stores everywhere this year….
(And I’m not making this up, go look in your local stores.)

^WTF IS THIS?!!!!!???!?!?!!!!!!!

I’ll tell you what it is… IT’S SANTA’S FREAKIN’ SACK WARMER!… THAT’S WHAT IT IS!!!
It’s disgusting…. poor kids

The sad thing is… I recognise more of the old games than the new ones
