Star Wars: No, George, Just... Just Stop...

     Recently, George Lucas has said that he is going to retire from the movie making business. For me, this is good news. Every time he changes something in the original trilogy I cringe, thinking, "What nonsense has he added this time?" However, George is blaming us, the fans, for crushing his dreams of making more Star Wars films, saying, "Why would I make any more when everybody yells at you all the time and says what a terrible person you are?" He blames us. No, George; don't go blaming your fans. As much as I admire the man who created the greatest Science Fiction franchise in history, he has no one to blame but himself. My main point: He didn't make bad movies, he made them bad.

You have failed me, George... For the last time...

Singles Awareness Day

     For many a geek and nerd, this day is a testament to the sad fact that many of us have not found that special someone. Some of us haven't really been looking, while others have searched far and wide only to be delegated to mere friendship. I would fall into the former of the two, so I suppose it's my own fault.

      On this special occasion however, I've decided to write a poem, or rather a haiku. Actually, two of them to be exact, one for each of the situations mentioned above. For those who haven't really looked:

 Another year passed...

Yet my status stays the same...

Forever alone...

     And for those who can't seem to catch a break:

No matter the girl...

I still get the same answer...

Friendzoned, yet again...

     For those of you who do have that special someone, I'd like to remind you that there are those of us who aren't so fortunate. So, please, keep the mushy stuff to a minimum... And enjoy your Singles Awareness Day.

Amnesia Custom Story: "Real Life"

     Over the past few Sundays I've been inviting friends over for a session of "Sunday Afternoon Amnesia". A few of them were interested in the game, but not brave crazy enough to actually play it themselves. That's where I come in. In a fit of bad judgment, I bought the game and decided I wanted to play it (should have probably been the other way around). My friends became engrossed with the story... so much so that they decided to play a little prank on me... (Unfortunately, they didn't take pictures, and to keep this blog post from being a wall of text, these standard issue Amnesia pictures will have to suffice.)

Oh boy, this just got real... Literally...
