One down, three point six to go
November 29, 2004
Well, the Christmas season is nigh, and I am stuck wondering how Penny Arcade gets swanky visitors who donate to things like Child's Play, enough so to even fund a fucking Fundraiser dinner, and how I get stuck with viewers that like to tell me about what happened in their days or what pop-ups they just saw or how they're related to me.
Then, of course, I feel guilty for having a wishlist on my site instead of donating proceeds to charity like Caoine.org or to sick kids like Penny Arcade. Then I feel bad for coming up with a joke that consisted of me insisting that if you bought something for me off my wishlist, I promise to decidedly *not* give cancer to children unless by "cancer" you mean "repeated kicks to the head" and "children" you mean "every kid who sat behind me on all four of my plane rides in the past week." And then that snowballs into guilt over not updating, and then the guilt compounds into a shame spiral, and I finally have learned the meaning of Christmas.
In other news, I am replaying FF8 (ffff-ffff-fate) and let me tell you -- I wish Triple Triad were an actual game. Man, do I kick ass.
Same with Pazaak in Kotor.
Sometimes I get so good at minigames, I wonder why I even go outside.
Mmm, interestinger update later?
Time will tell.
(Time: No. And "interestinger" is not a word.)

Whoop! Hallo! You have learnt the true meaning of Christmas: shame and minigames!
I suppose we shan't have to send the ghosts of video games past to teach you a lesson after all. Good thing, too, because the little dude from Dynowarz is really not very pleasant.

caoine.org is a charity? i mean... she's hot and has really nice tits, but surely that doesn't qualify for charity. but if it is, then that means i'm jacking off for a good cause.

Yeh I rawk at pazaak. But probly not as much as... well, anyone else, to be honest. I always get "good" at things then find out everyone else is better at it then me. It reminds me of this popup I saw today...

Damn that pazaak, I remember playing that game so long I forgot what I was actually doing in the game. Then I started a game just to play pazaak... does that make me a bad man?

Triple Triad WAS a real game. Not long after FF8 was released state-side, several stores including EB and GameStop actually carried Triple Triad boosters. Unfortunately, they were not very popular and they went the way of many other cool but not well marketed games *coughBattletechCCGcough*

I was thinking about you the other day. I finally went to go see Team America. If you haven't seen it yet, they came up with a parody to mock the hit broadway play "Rent", I recalled how you and Andrew used to sing showtunes in the Vault.
Go see it! :)
