Press the Start Button.

So I used to believe anyone who wrote a blog was a bad person.
I slightly still believe this, but I'm no Jesus so I think I can get away with this.

I see it as a way to prevent my brain from melting and succumbing to retardation, which many can argue that's already happened, but fuck them.

You know sleep? that thing? that we do? it's totally awesome. I could get used to it, If I didn't already have a life, but with this month I have off from college, what else is there to do other then lie in bed until 12pm thinking " I should really get out of bed right about now."

Having the chance to do my normal podcast listening round up, Its Wednesday, which means the episode of giant bomb i was too lazy to listen to the night before still exists for my listening pleasure, which I'm sure thankful for. Main discussion? The Spike VGA's, I managed to skim through the programming, but immediately stopped watching after jack black attempted to do a show tuned inspired retro video game performance. Im sure Jack black did a fine job with his hosting performance, but I hate, HATE, anything that's show tunes, especially when it has no musical accompaniment, but atleast he had a cane. that's what matters, right? right. I coulnt really look past all the advertising to see the basic point of the show, awarding people in the game industry for their efforts, because Gamestop, Mountain dew, and Stride really love video games. they really love video games. So go buy some sticks of gum and play halo while gulping down soft drinks, because that's HARDCORE, and people who play video games TOTTALY do that all the time. The show it self is getting better with every year, and I do understand with a two hour show dedicated to video games, which caters to a niche audience (there were no wii soccer moms watching this show, too busy doing yoga on their balance board), they had to earn their dollars, just wish it didn't interfere with the awards so much themselves. Downloadable game award sponsored by mountain dew? what? and please, don't bring out any more canned pieces of ass to tell us bad jokes, they don't need to be funny or interesting, they aren't famous because of their personalities, they are on stage to look pretty. Transformers 2 leading lady presenting game of the year, again, why? If she was accompanied by Megatron, THEN it would have made sense, but why not an actual person related in any way to games presenting?

My Skullcandies (headphones) broke, and I've been meaning to buy a new pair for awhile, which is what I did today. Some cheap 30$ iAudio, in-ear headphones. Not something I researched or anything, I just needed to block off noise from the world around me again, and I have to say, they are doing the job well. I'm not a expert, but you can be sure that these are headphones and they do indeed produce sound. Here's a rant, right there on the box, it says " for the new iPOD NANO", is there anyone out there going " hmmmm I wonder what headphones are compatible with my ipod nano?" I dont believe so, If that person is you, where the fuck have you been?

Listening to the new Fall Out Boy album "Folie a Deux" and I'll have my thoughts on It tomorrow, after I buy the physical Disc tomorrow when I go shopping with some friends. Just have to say, these guys get too much hate for being such a great band, and 20 dollar nose bleed is an amazing song, minus the last bit.

Roads are slippery. Where the fuck is that magic salt?

Well that was fun, I have stuff to say, who would have thought?

Recommended listening: Fall Out Boy "Folie A Deux", Hit The Lights "Skip School, Start Fights"
