    Isn't that supposed to happen after you start getting protection from editors?

    Anyway, have fun destroying people's hopes and dreams.

  • Has friends besides tanks now
    Heading out to trade in all of my 360 stuff so I can play PS3 instead.

    ^^ Nice! So is reviewing stuff like a full-time job for you now?
  • Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    ^^^ YOU ARE WINNER

    ^ Honestly, if I were buying a new system today instead of years ago, I'd get a PS3. The exclusives appeal to me more, and I dont want to pay for online.

    Anyway, I'm leaving to go see The Muppets.
  • ^^^^ Good going, Juan!
  • One foot in front of the other, every day.
    I'm a professional published asshole.


    This sentence is one word too long.
  • You can change. You can.
    Well, i was getting paid for my columns without getting published and credited, becausde lol17, but this review of twilight struck a chord and is getting published under my name.

    And I was hired by the newspaper, so now write a weekly column :D

    It's ll going according to plan.

    Anyway, gonna go and buy some guitar stuff with my new money
  • One foot in front of the other, every day.
    That's pretty awesome. All the best of luck to you.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Awesome.
  • They're somethin' else.
    Congrats, Juan. Wish I could do what I always wanted at 18 XD

    Congrats Juan!
  • I am Dr. Ned who is totally not Dr. Zed in disguise.
    Congratulations Juan :D

    Okay, The Muppets was really, really good.

    One of the best new movies all year.
  • You can change. You can.
    Thanks, guys.

    Watching Spider Man 2.

    I forgot how funny this movie is, although Dunst and Maguire are still annoying. The dub makes it somewhat better, though.

    Otoh, mexican!Bruce Campbell kinda sucks
  • You can change. You can.
    Hurm.

    The worst prt bout being an existentialist is how often you see subtext in things which probably don't have such a thing.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    What specifically prompted that?
  • You can change. You can.
    Spiderman 2.

    Well, it is a movie about choice, i suppose. But i think its main point is that it is only when you're doing what you choose to do and not what you're forced to do when you're able to do that well.

    Which would tie into the whole "we make our meaning" and blah blah blah ramblings
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Haven't seen it in ages, but that sounds like it makes sense :P
  • You can change. You can.
    Well, it's not exactly senseless, but it reminded me of a comment Insanity Addict made about analysis being (most of the time, of course) used as a way to wank about your favorite philosophy, so, basically, suddenly, doubts!
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    I don't really see how that's a problem. I mean, it's not like people are going to use analysis to wank about their least favorite philosophies or anything.
  • Though playing devil's advocate in such a way tends to be a good exercise in perspective.
  • No rainbow star
    ^^^^ Thanks for making me feel old by saying you haven't seen Spiderman 2 in ages
  • Classical music IJBM:

    I'm sometimes not sure what the point of the "development" part of sonata-allegro form (exposition-development-recapitulation) is aside from being the most forgettable part.

    Man, I haven't seen Spider-Man 2 in a while. I never really watched it for any deeper meanings, myself.

    Anyway, I've set up my new PS3 (which also came with a Ratchet and Clank game and Littlebigplanet 2), and I'm hopping on Skyrim once I get back from dinner.

    "Be."

    FUCK YEAH
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Ah, yeah, definitely in my top two moments in Ghost Story.
  • You can change. You can.
     I never really watched it for any deeper meanings, myself.

    Why would you? Only a sick person would do that!
  • Hmmm, I wouldn't say reading subtext into stuff stems from any particular philosophy but more from one's study. Anyhow, you never came across as arbitrarily jamming a hobbyhorse philosophy into things, so whichever comment I made wasn't aimed at you. I wouldn't have been able to deduce that you were an existentialist until you identified yourself as such.
  • You can change. You can.
    Nah, I never said you aimed it at me, but I was reminded of that observation, that's all.

    Just bought Morrowind on Steam.  I swear, these sales are going to be the death of me.  I have less than no self control and a debit card.  God help me.

    Anyway, I'm going to try not to buy anymore video games until February,
    when the PSVita comes out.  Let's see if my resolve holds.
