Ah-hem

Update:

I have a job, right now. I can't really tell you about it because of a certain contract (it rhymes with pata-pon disclosure), but suffice to say this has been on hold, temporarily.

Next post

will have to wait a while. I know what I want to do, but I'll be trying something new. You'll see it when you see it.

Storytelling

I've had some ideas about storytelling.

Always have.

Recently, I realized how dumb it is that a lot of people neglect and diss a medium that seems made for storytelling: games

Edge of Darkness Movie Review

He's back. Yup.

Mel Gibson disappeared off the face of hollywood for a while. He was still there, of course, as a director, making movies that I didn’t really want to see, like Passion of the Christ. I liked him better when he was getting shot or punched to pieces (because, admit it, that’s like, 80% of his roles).

And then, except for calling a cop “sugartits” (*snigger*), I didn’t hear a thing from him. I called, but he didn’t answer the phone. Stuff like that.

Random Rant

What am I going to do?

It's a short question, but just as deep and difficult to answer as "Who am I?" or "Why am I here?".

Just ask yourself:
What are you going to do?

Just a warning: this iz sirius post => no silleh picshurs

Music

There is amazing music out there.

There is no doubt about that, everyone agrees.

There's just some debate on what qualifies as awesome (or a music, for that matter. Yes, I'm looking at you, industrial-fans).

Nightmare on Elm Street Remake Review

WARNING: BEFORE PROCEEDING, KNOW THAT I'M GOING TO BE USING PICTURES OF A PARTICULARLY NASTY DISFIGURED BAD GUY. CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

It was good. Better than the original, too. It might have been scary in its own time, but the old one is kinda ridiculous nowadays.

So why is it good?

The Dark

"God, I love summer."

He didn't really say this out loud, but he was thinking it so hard, he might as well have. After all, the sun was shining on his face, and he was shining right back. Life was good. And so it would be for the next 15 seconds. He crossed the street, smiling at the car that had stopped for him. 13. Johnny Clash blared at him through his earphones, and he hummed along with it, off key and not giving a damn. 10. He crossed a friend of his, looking equally cheery. They nodded, grinning. He went around a corner. 7. He looked up into the sky, closed his eyes, and smiled. He stood there for a while.

3.

He didn't realize.

2.

No-one did, of course.

1.

Not this kind of thing.

The Apocalypse

I have a question for me.

Yes, for me.
There's no point asking you, dear reader, because of the indirectness of this wonderful medium.
I wouldn't know who I was talking to.

Top 10 things that make you want to kick a puppy.

There are several things in life that just annoy the living crap out of you.

Not because they're depressing.

Not because it's mean.

Not because it's hurtful.

Because it's too frigging CHEERFUL.
