Blah


Site updates: The songs pages have been updated with all my latest songs so you can go check that out or not. whatever. I think that's the only new site news so on with my excessive rambling.. quite excessive today that's fucking long!

These last few days have been pretty cool. On the 3rd I purchased my copy of the WarCraft III: Collector's Edition from Futureshop for $150. I know that seems like a lot but it was well worth it because of all the amazing stuff that came with it. You get an awesome hard box lined with velvet a 200 page book (with high quality paper) featuring all the Art of WarCraft... concept art and cinematic scenes along with commentary by the artists themselves explaining their ideas and what they were trying to do. You also get 4 cardboards featuring the faces of a unit from each race (each one was on the cover of one of the four boxes released for the normal version of WarCraft III) high quality prints and a DVD featuring commentary and all the cinematics containted within the game.. You get the collectors edition manual signed by the design team and a standard product catalogue and building dependencies cardboard. Last but not least you get the music soundtrack to the game. Oh and.. well you get the game and the CD is a special collectors edition version featuring different CD art. So basically I'm going to be trying to keep all of this awesome stuff in as best condition as possible. I've already read the entire Art of WarCraft book and it was very interesting and gave some insight into where these ideas come from and I was amazed at how many concepts weren't used yet look amazingly cool; but enough about the purchasing of the game... onto the game itself!

While I won't go into a review style explanation of the game (I actually plan on having an official review for it sometime in the future for both this site and Webkore) I will tell you how much I enjoyed the game. I finished the single player campaign yesterday and by the end I was very impressed. At first I found the missions unimmersive; I was having trouble getting into the storyline... the missions were easy and I was somewhat disappointed by it; expecting a StarCraft quality story I was getting some Westwood quality shit pile... but that quickly turned around by the end of the Undead missions when the Burning Legion started coming to invade the lands and the story was actually becoming interesting and I could actually pick out characters by name and so on. My favorite campaign would have to be the Night Elves though because they were the most challenging and interesting by far. I went back and read through the storylines in the WarCraft: Orcs and Humans and WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness and that got me caught up so I knew what was going on and how it was a all part of a bigger storyline. But anywho the game kicks ass the multiplayer kicks ass... buy the game now.

Here are a few screenshots that have gathered in my directory... so check 'em the fuck out! Notice the one about black people wasn't written by me or anyone I associate with it was some dumbfuck announcing it to the 100 or so people on the server... it was strangly amusing at the time though as it is quite unexpected to have someone be so vulgar to so many people at one time (yes kids swearing IS funny). Second Note: Look very closely at the Demon Hunter screen shot. You'll notice that the round part of his blades is the face of a panda.

  • I am all of a sudden not in the mood to write anymore... ugh.. I'll push myself on.. I just got depressed all of a sudden.. mood swings or what.. fuck. Hmmm.. So speaking of depressed.. I may be moving soon. Only a few houses down in my shit hole of a townhouse complex but still... It would probably be hard to understand but I have this problem with leaving the house/place I feel safe. My basement... this place where I am for 99% of my day is where I feel safe. I DO NOT want to leave this. Not only that but I've finally got it so it feels like it's mine. I've got a lot of crap on the walls (almost completely covered in stuff) and I'm starting on my Coke door... covering a door with coke box tops... so... well FUCK! I don't want to leave my fucking room. The new house will have one bathroom... for some reason that pisses me off the most... Hi I'm Mr. Tumor leg. I have to walk up two flights of stairs just to take a piss. What if it was the middle of the night I'd have to be all super quiet and shit as to not wake up the people sleeping when now I can fucking slam the damn door if I wanted and no one except my cat would hear me. It's just fucking stupid. If I want to brush my teeth at four in the morning like I always do I'd have to be all quiet possibly waking up my Mom. My room would be smaller everything would be smaller... but the good part... we would be saving $60 bucks!! That seems sooooo not worth it. I might apply for a job in September as to keep the house but I don't know if I could actually do it.. ya know get a job.. the whole not being able to leave my room for a long time or interact with people successfully.. it may be hard to learn things at a job or to interact with customers or shit.. so I'm very nervous about even thinking about it. It just seems like a shitloud of stress that shouldn't be placed on me and perhaps wouldn't be if not for my nervous nature. Also I may have to undergo surgery around that time so getting a job would be close if not impossible.

    Well I talked to Ben today. I decided in honor of his memory I would put up a quote of the day from him. Today's quote taken from one of our conversations today is: "Holy! Everybody else is playing some gay board game about antiques. I had to get the fuck out". Oh well.. It was nice to hear from him... makes me want to play some fucking 2v2 games FUCK! 1v1 just isn't fun because everyone is so god damn 1337 from playing the beta. I mean the beta wasn't limited to the 300 or so people Blizzard picked... it was unlimited because of piracy and hacked servers... so everyone is godly at the game... with maybe one or two out of ten people being a true n00b and people are learning very quickly. But when I've played custom games with the pissers I've noticed that people are lacking team work and that is something Ben and I were excelling at during our time with the hacked servers (pre-release)... so I know that we could rape some hard ass on Battle.Net and perhaps even get high on the ladder. I just can't wait to unleash my massive skills of skilliness. Oh and Ben If you're reading this I could only get the account FrozenFire. AFireInside and Ender and EnderW were all taken on the first day the game came out. If there are any more you want me to try just e-mail them or if we're talking on MSN right now let me know. The biggest thing I've noticed on Battle.Net is people love cheesing. They rush build an Altar using the repair tactic then build an Arch-Mage and then rush you with Water Elementals because you even have an attack unit... CHEESE! You can do nothing to counter that at all. Also people love ordering you around... get this hero come here save me stop swearing at your partners why are you attacking me stop drawing a penis going into a bum... I think I can handle it myself thank you very much... six more days.

    Linzie is missing her computer this week which means no keeping me company during the long nights. This is alright I guess as I can amuse myself by punching myself in the head with a broken monitor.. well.. okay so I'm kinda lonely... that's okay because when I wake up she's here and kissing me :). In fact the only way she is going to read this is if she's over here.. so.. Hi Linzie! *waves* If you're reading this look over at me and yell TOAD!! TOOOOAAD!!! really loudly.. No I'm serious... stop giggling and just fucking yell it. Hopefully she gets her computer back soon so she can do my bidding online! mwuhahahah! (Kids never laugh like this in public).

    My ode to Linzie (this is my woman):
    Tomorrow I get my hair cut.. really short! Which means no spiking for me for a week or two! Meh... I don't mind though because it's hot and hair is bothersome in the heat. I have to get up at 1:00pm tomorrow and it's already 5:00am now so that doesn't give me much time to sleep... oh well I'm used to no sleep (it's inhuman Ben inhuman...). Tim Horton's tomorrow probably Chicken Salad Sandwich and a donut! Yay! I probably have to stop off at my grandparents on the way home which isn't so bad if it weren't for the small talk. Going over there for a reason such as dropping something off or something makes a bit of sense but going over sitting on the couch and struggling to think of something to say is unenjoyable... tolerable but unenjoyable.. at least I don't have to spend like.. 9 days in the same house in heat and with nothing to do or anything (this kids is an obvious attempt at making someone look like a huge flamer).

    ugh. I have to build a computer tomorrow.. or at least buy the parts. For some reason I really don't want to do that.. but I already have the $1500 in my wallet so there's no turning back now. I just don't have the motivation... I have no will to do it... I don't even know if I'll enjoy it or anything. I know it means I make some money but I already spent a bit of it on WarCraft III: Collectors Edition which my Mom said she would pay back some but I doubt she will (just like she said she'd give me some money for my birthday oh well). So that leaves me maybe $150 left. I need a p4 motherboard which is $150 or more! So.. I may not even get anything out of this. I've been waiting for a very long time to get this motherboard so I'm hoping. I would also like to buy 512 or so MB's of DDR ram for my new P4... but that's just a dream. When I get my new motherboard I can pretty much make a new computer out of spare parts which would be 900mhz with 640mb ram.. not bad at all.. good for gaming I'd finally have a running computer to play LAN games on... which means fun for Linzie and I. After she's learned how to play WarCraft III or if she goes as far as buying it she can bring it over install it using her cd-key and then play with Me and Ben at the same time either 3v3 or FFA and it would be such amazing fun. But who knows if that would ever happen it's just another dream :). But anywho I guess building the computer won't be that bad I'm just nervous I'll screw up... ever since Marilyn's computer blew up (5 months after building it no less) I've been nervous that I'm gonna fuck something up (she blamed it all on my by the way).. oh well I may end up getting something out of it.

    I played some more Question Game tonight with Holly! It was fun! We will freestyle till death! Booya grandma! Psst hey Linzie you still haven't yelled Toad really loud.. what's taken you so long? Ah I know you're just all flustered by my stunning good looks because of my new hair cut... *runs fingers through hair* Olay. Umm... where was I again? Oh yeah.. so I was making the garlic bread and I was like.. when the hell did I put this shit in the oven anyway? I just couldn't remember so I ran upstairs throwing people out of my way to their complete and irrefutable deaths at the bottom of the hell pit came these evil red creatures!! AH!! NO!!! CINNAMON BUNS!!! arg.

    Wow I think I actually ran out of things to talk about... imagine that.. crazy. Oh well I guess I'll sit around for another hour or so and then go to bed. Have fun people and Linzie yell Toad and then come over here and kiss me. Goodbye.
