So I continuously fail, and I haven't posted once again for roughly two weeks now. Man do I suck.
Irregardless, so every once in a while I think of a topic and I'm like "OH MAN I SO NEED TO BLOG ON THAT" but then I get tired and fall asleep.
So I started taking Melatonin, not every single night, but i've taken it twice so far. No vivid dreams to report sadly, but when I take it I sleep very soundly.
Ok, so the thought on my mind that I wanted to write about before I continued to neglect you all was this term.
Casual Gamer
Ah, yes some of you know this word. Some of you ARE this word.
Videogame companies realized that not all games were meant for hardcore gamers and started creating these casual games to play. No heavy story lines. You pick it up and play it for 5 minutes or an hour and you walk away from it. So was the intention.
These games were created for housewives with a few minutes, corporate figures who can't really invest their time or money into videogames. Simple point and click games and puzzlers like BeJeweled and Diner Dash are the exact type of games that are created for these type of people. However, and maybe it's just me that's noticed this, these casual gamers have become casual addicts. Hours are being spent in front of the games. And what's worse!
Sites like facebook which should create friendly conversation amongst friends has inspired heavy feuds as people feverishly try to beat each others scores on certain games.
No It's not everyone. Some people can simply play a couple rounds of bejeweled or a simple dish in Cafe World and end it....but others. It's getting to me!! I was never this competitive!
I just went out into the kitchen and strutted my shit around while singing GOLDEN TICKET because I kicked my moms ass in Bejewled! Seriously?! GAH!
But how fucking bad ass is that? I so got her good. She plays it for HOURS, I played it like maybe 15 minutes and blew her out the water by 30,000 points...I still can't beat kathy....but Kathy is a Casual Gaming god, and i've come to expect as much from her.
Did you really think I was going to sit here and tell you about the horrors of competition or an addiction to gaming? Hell no, I'm here to let you know, i'm still better than my mother....at least in Bejeweled.
And what about this damned snow? What snow?! Rain. Say rain please. RAIN. Thank you weatherman. Why don't they just say the truth. "You know what, I've got no fucking clue as to what's going to happen today. But I know it will involve some sort of moisture."
Besides it's New England by now we are so used to not knowing the fucking weather around here.
Oh and I met Pauly D today, you know the guy from Jersey Shore....oh man. So cute!!!!!!!! He just seemed really tired.
Ok so I have ADHD today, but who are you to judge me?
Oh, that reminds me
"How many kids with ADHD does it take to screw in a lightbulb? LETS GO RIDE OUR BIKES!" yeah...made me laugh my fucking ass offf. But I'm an evil person.
All right, i'm going to take some Melatonin and go to bed, and think about possibly going phone shopping very soon. I'm tired of this "will my phone work today" bullshit. I wrote Helio a very....um...well a letter. Basically saying "Que pesa"
LOL I should have done this
"Dear Helio,
What's going on guys? I thought we were friends? i always thought you were so cool. Then we started hanging out, and at first you seemed cool but you've been nothing but problems for me. You just stop talking to me sometimes, for days at a time. I can't even get you to wake up. I tried replacing you 6 times, and the same thing. You just don't like me no more? You sure as hell like my money though. So please, as much as it hurts me to leave you Helio, you suck mighty balls. I'm choosing sprint. Peace out homey."
I think I might do that actually, when I leave just send them a nice little friends F.U. letter. How awesome would that be? I like this letter format.
"Dear Purell,
Please stay out of my cuts in my hand.
Love, Luigi"
"Dear M&Ms,
I opened a bag recently and was very disappointed to see mostly Ws. Not cool. I threw them all out.
Angrily yours, Luigi."
"Dear Ghandi,
McDonalds has a dollar menu.
Concerned for your health, Luigi."
"Dear Cassandra,
It's spelled Epiphany
correctfully yours, Luigi"
"Dear David,
Te gusto much,
me llama Luigi"
"Dear American Idol,
We get the point. Please stop.
envying the deaf, Luigi."
"Dear Oprah,
You've been on my mind alot lately, and I don't know why. When ever I need to pick a random name as of late it's always yours and it bothers me. I never watch your show, or listen to you, or even look at you really. But you've been plastered all over my mind. Have I been plastered on yours?
Just wondering, Luigi"
What are your short letters?
