Well, my mother has fucking ruined my laptop for about the fifth time. The only system restore point is dated March 6th, 2005. Thanks, Microsoft! Thanks, Mom! Thanks a fucking bunch. Eventually I'll find some way of getting the pictures off. In the meantime, does anybody live in New York and would be able to get to Barnes & Noble on Fifth Avenue on the 15th of March?

Excuzie moi, monsieur, I shall trouvez mon láptop unt get ít pour vous. (Trés bien! A+!) UPDATE: Since my laptop has no CD or DVD RW, there is no feasible way of removing the video footage from said laptop. To complicate issues further, the program I need to open the video files isn't working, so I can't take screenshots and put them on to a floppy (which my laptop DOES have). There you have it. I'll find some way of getting them off, but probably not tonight. I shall use System Restore, and see vot happens!

Mmm. Too bad I'm not doing it. When we arrived for the award ceremony, they introduced us to a couple of the first year students in that course, and openly referred to both us (assuming we wanted to take the course) and them as 'guinea pigs'. I have some cool video footage of me assaulting the Course Coordinator person with a copy of Halo 2, which was fun (although accidental). It was a national competition, and since they plan to make it an annual event (and we're the first winners) we're invited back to next year's ceremony for tea, biscuits, and to give some kind of a speech. Apparently. Of course, this all happened in 2004, but I only just discovered that page so I thought I'd gloat a bit, because I'd forgotten all about it until now. I was going to make a mockumentary... 'A Day in the Life of an Award Winning Game Designer', and upload it. Unforunately, 90% of the video footage I got was of Louise and I mocking people we hate, putting on ridiculous foreign accents and acting out scenes from Shaun of the Dead. And I forgot to prop the video camera up when I went up to get the actual award, so all you can see is a half eaten sandwich on a plate.

Did anybody watch this last night? I believe you can still watch a rerun, but basically it was a live broadcast Gamespot TV show thing with a demo of Psychonauts and with Tim Schafer. It's worth watching, if not for the Psychonauts Demo, for Tim's Beard. It's a heckuva beard.

Apple iPod can go burn in hell, 'cause the Zen Micro is where it's at. It's so fucking gorgeous, I think I'm going to explode.

Do you realize your cars are shit? The only thing they're good for is making screeching sounds and flipping over in car chases.

Yes there is. American cars have this... they turn a corner, and the entire car leans over. That's not supposed to happen. That's just one thing. Don't get me started on visual design. If I was a stunt coordinator, I'd love American Cars.

As long as it goes vroom what?

San Andreas is an incredibly frustrating experience for me, at times.

I like to think people would help old ladies across the road because they're nice people, not because other people/gods told them to. So, whether it's a good or a bad thing, I still don't see 'religion' is a good reason for anything.

Fairygdmther: Delicious! Loony: Health Reasons, that's fine. Although I don't see why you should remove it when there's absolutely nothing wrong. It seems pointless to remove a part of your body for no reason. I mean, seriously, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. As for religious reasons... I'm in two minds. I hate when religion is a reason for something. That's so broad. "Why do you hate gay people?" "uhh, religion. Yes." However, by the same token, since circumcision doesn't actually bother me (I'm just curious as to why so many people get it done) I'm kind of okay with it being done as part of a religion. It's one of those harmless things that people do, like going to church. Sort of. Overall, though, religion is a shitty reason for anything. I think I've used up two hands already, so... on the THIRD hand, I seriously don't mind circumcision and actually think it's probably a LOT cleaner... I just don't understand why so many people... I don't know, I'm confused. I didn't realize it was so widespread. I mean, it'd also be cleaner if I didn't have... I don't know... labia? I'm going to pair those two things together just once more, because I think they go well together. Labia. NEW QUESTION: If so many babies get their foreskins cut off, what do they do with the masses and masses of tiny little foreskins? Are they sold to African Voodoo Lords to make medicines?

I doubt it affects a guy's sex life. I mean, if my boyfriend was circumcised, I would be mystified for about, like, three minutes, and then I'd get distracted and talk about something else. Rodi, in your case I completely understand. In fact, I know a guy that's circumcised for a similar reason. But why on earth circumcise perfectly healthy babies?! I mean, unless you're Jewish... they do it for sport or something. I vote we just lift the ban on Fox Hunting and let men keep their foreskin.

Because I think it's kind of weird to cut off part of your penis for health reasons, unless it's at risk of going green and falling off.

I guess I don't know Nick that well, except that he's always seemed nice and stuff. So I DO wish him a happy birthday. Happy Birthday, Nick. Have a nice today.

Some people (especially hardcore gamers) seem ashamed to say that they like Crash Bandicoot, but 1 - 3, and Crash Team Racing, were actually really fun games and great to play when you have friends around, or need a little time to burn. Pokemon, again, same story. People didn't like to say (especially AFTER the pokemon craze) they liked the game, because they associate it with the lame show and all the shitty merchandise. But the gameboy game was actually pretty good. It was a great boredom buster... my only complaint was that it was bullshitty fighting against other people because if their pokemon was a level above yours, they'd win pretty much no matter what. And if both were on the same level, it was down to luck. But most games suffered from that back then. But still a fun game. And Mary Kay's Riding Centre is thee best game ever. Run, Star, Run! Jump, Star! We have to save those Ponies from the Meatman!

Okay, so using the Plot-O-Matic, try to best describe the plot of a movie you have seen, and then post the result here. Then people have to guess what movie you've tried to describe with the Plot-O-Matic, even if it's described wrong. The winner then takes over and so on and so forth. Obviously don't include the title to your movie. For instance; The correct answer would be 'Around the World in 80 Days'. I mean, I know that girl wasn't a kind hearted prostitute, but it was the closest option. Okay, so I'll start:

BLAZING SADDLES! BLAZING SADDLES!!! Here's another clue: from now on, EVERY MOVIE I TRY TO DESCRIBE WILL BE BLAZING SADDLES!!! Ben: Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within blah blah blah.

<--- !!!

Oh yay my turn again wtf this one's gonna be real hard. Black comedy: A renegade cop teams up with an alcoholic ex-CIA agent to discover America. In the process they turn state's evidence on Parker Posey. By the end of the movie they run away from lots of washed up ex-SNL cast members and end up winning the admiration of their country, living happily ever after.

Twister, Chinese Checkers, Happy Families. Also, KOTOR. I liked Sam n Max but it was the least favourite of those old adventure games. The Fucking Dig.

Oh no, no metaphor. I was just going to say... yeah, but I shoot with this one. <--

Then let's play chess! <--- You see this hand?

Well then, since I am your host and you are my guest... tell me, what are your pleasures? What do you like to do?

I don't know... Are we... black?

Terminator 1 - 3!!!
