Okay, the reason why the live-action GI Joe movie was not the complete train wreck I expected it to be was because my expectations were all wrong.

I was expecting it to be a reinvention of the franchise just like the Devils Due comics and GI Joe Resolute, the latter  I recommend all Joe fans should watch. This wasn't an attempt to turn turn Joe into ( Read more... )

Once again, the Ultimate Fighting Championship has failed to nab the biggest free agent fighter in the world, Fedor Emelianenko. Fedor is the best heavyweight fighter in the world, and second in most pound-for-pound rankings behind Georges St. Pierre, only because the level of competition faced by St. Pierre was significantly greater. Fedor has a ( Read more... )

So I'm training in the family company and the system there is text-based that involves it's own code as well as various commands. This is like college again, and I have homework to do along with notes to organize. My brain's fried because I spent the entire day doing exercises ( Read more... )

So I've seen Revenge of the Fallen twice now. Even before the film's trailers started coming on the web I kept telling myself "This is Bay.... This is Bay... This is Bay..." like some rhythmic meditative chant to get me to appreciate the film more.

See, even as a kid I've watched Transformers for primarily one reason:robots kicking ass. And the ( Read more... )

Taken from the D&D boards.

As for the best, in 3.5 that was easily the Paladin, who had great big NADs. (Is it any wonder the Paladins with the biggest NADs were very charismatic?) Conversely, 4e Paladins have NADs that aren't much bigger than everyone else's. You know why? His Code of Conduct. The 3.5 Paladin's strong NADs were descended directly ( Read more... )

I enter the room, pitch black save for the light that came from the antechamber. The door, shuts behind me and I am embraced by cold, dark, and silence. It is almost peaceful, then the candles come to life, a perfect circle around me, illuminating the image of the Sun on the ground. I should be used to this by now, I am a sorcerer after all, in a ( Read more... )

I now realize why I hate organizing pick-up raids in WoW. While not as difficult as before, finding the right balance between healers, tanks, and damage-dealers is tough, and then you have to pick capable people, those with skill and gear, to fill out said roles. And when the pickings are slim, boy does it get ugly. There's a reason why raiding ( Read more... )

Finally saw all of GI Joe Resolute. After finishing Argent Tournament dailies last Sunday I decided to watch all of it in one go. Thankfully, my internet was able to stream the videos off Youtube with no lag ( Read more... )

I realize I haven't really updated this thing in a while. Suffice to say things have been genuinely hectic for me these past couple of days. I'm going through a pretty big change in my life that'll knock me out of my comfort zone and quite possibly force me to really grow up ( Read more... )

 Yes this is a little late, but RIP, Dave Arneson. My next roll's for you.
