Did you ever have one ofthose days where you realized you're going to do nothing of any importance in your entire life? I am today.
I woke up late for work, came in for 9:30, started working and turned on the TV because I realized i put my tivo on standby and was probably not going to get icons recorded. The first one on was Music Makers. This episode was incredibly awesome, and also makes me want to just give up at life. Tommy Talrico, the guy who i want to punch in the face for being responsible for shows like The Electric Playground and Judgement Day, apparently is this INCREDIBLY well known game music maker. He made all the music for Earthworm Jim 1 & 2, and Prince of Persia! How is this humanly possible! How can someone who makes such crappy TV make such great game music. He's done other things but I was blown away to see that he has done music for games I actually really like.
He did this all at like the age of 23. I'm really depressed by the fact that I know at 23 I'll be luck if I've gotten out of college alive and secured a ho hum job with some computer agency or at some highschool in Pennsylvania. Fucking Hell. Way to completely waste a human existance. The last thing this world needs is another idiot tech guy. Why can't I do something that will be around for a million years to come and be remembered by millions of people?
Being average sucks.
