HaHA, you spambots will never be rid of me!
Been tearing about on Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. I'll talk about that later, mostly because I'm pretty frustrated with the game. Whoever did the vehicles probably did programming work for Battletoads' Level 3. Thanks a lot for making moon buggies suck.
In other vidya game news, I've also gotten my hands on Shining Force EXA, better known as "Sega Really Wanted To Make Diablo." It's actually pretty damn fun, and has a distinction of being challenging in a fun way, which I haven't run into lately.
It's actually kind of weird. Both games have a habit of randomly kicking my ass, they go about in different ways. Borderlands PS really comes across as trying to steal Dark Souls fans. I'm hoping it gets better down the line. 2 could be really damn hard at some points, too. And to be fair, this shit is still awesomesauce. LASER SHOTGUNS! YOU'RE WELCOME!
Shining Force here, when I die, I know I screwed up. I can go back and do the right thing (or grind) and I just jump aboard the train to PwnVille. Oh and you can smack things with spellbooks. I don't mean use the spellbook to burninate things (though you can do that too), I mean physically beat people with metaphysical literature.
Dammit, now I want to watch...oh...Raistlin and Snape whack the hell out of some Twilight characters now. Preferably with copies of The Simarillion. With Yakety Sax blaring in the background.
Oh, and I'm planning on writing a semi-intelligent post on a semi-serious topic. It will be entitled "Metallurgy, Mineralogy, and Monster-Mashing."

Brain Barf
Blarg-a-rant!
I've decided to get off my ass and make a list of Star Wars lines that can be improved with the word 'pants'. I saw a short list of such things a long time ago on an old SWCCG trading site, but never encountered another one, so I throwing them back out there with some additions. They will be a fairly random bunch, and probably far from exhaustive.
Original Trilogy:
"Han will have those pants down, we got to give him more time."
"That blast came from those pants. That thing's operational!"
"The pants are ray-shielded, so you'll have use proton torpedoes."
"Those pants better be back up by midday, or there'll be hell to pay."
"Luke...help me take...these pants off."
"In his pants you will find a new meaning for pain and suffering..."
"Judge me by my pants, do you?"
Prequel Trilogy:
"All last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will drop our pants."
"No money, no pants, no deal!"
"Your pants will make a fine addition to my collection."
"There's pants here, unless you brought them with you."
"His pants were a necessary loss. Soon I will have a new apprentice, one far younger..."
"Not victory, Obi-Wan. The pants of the dark side have fallen."

Rated T for Tanks
Blarg!
Been tearing about like a madman on World of Tanks again. Even when I die like a moron, its an absolute blast. The big trick to the game is really that death is just part of the game. Its even reinforced by an achievement, This is World of Tanks, which you get by dying all alone as the last guy on your team.
I've also been tearing about in Final Fantasy VII. It's still a fun game, even after all of these years. FF7 is a particular favorite of mine; I actually owned a copy of it before I owned a Playstation! I'm a little angry at the RNG right now. Snagging certain skills can be a real bitch if the game isn't in a good mood. I'll go back to it a day or so; controller throwing is a sign of idiocy. Ol' Seph is in deep shit anyway. He realizes that I'm back and prepared to shank a bitch, or bishie in his case. Hell, it's both.
I'm still of the opinion that the real reason post-game Cloud is so damn emo because Seph up and poked Aerith with his sword before Cloud could. That shit is Freudian as hell.
