So I was up late last night (par for the course) watching silly learning-styled television shows when I saw a familiar face, one that epitomizes everything I can summon to mind about douchebags. Originally he had been plugging this thing called the ShamWow and the commercial was run so often that I had to change the channel immediately upon its broadcast lest another tumor begin festering in my brain. That was awhile ago and I hadn’t seen the bastard and his damn dirty shammies for awhile, until all of a sudden there he was on my tube, except now he had some sort of hand-slapping-chopping device. Rather than change the channel I watched the whole damn semi-infomerical (I consider these commericals that run more than 2 mins) and at the end he used his same damn line of “This is a hella-good offer. You better call now because we can’t do this all day!”. My soul darkened just a shade more at realizing that this fucker is probably going to be the next Billy Mays.
While I’m at the product mentioning business, I’d just like to say that the GilletteĀ Fusion Turbo (the one that vibrates (bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)) razor brings an absolute joy to my shaving routine. I don’t even use anything except hot water with it, it’s just that fantastic.
I noticed a crop of New Years Resolutions(tm) posts cropping up on several of the blogs I read and thought to give an update as to my own. Though I didn’t really officially make any for this year, I mostly decided to just be smart about my habits and try to improve them for a healthier lifestyle. So far I’ve worked out for at least 30 mins the last week and haven’t binged on any fatty-fat-fat-treats that are oh so delicious. I’ve also somehow mangaged to mostly keep my apartment clean as well as the interior of my car (Christmas miracles indeed!).
The next few months are promising to be ripe with a lot of PC games that won’t suck. Some such titles include Demigod, a new title in the Total War series, Dawn of War 2 (though originally thought to be out sometime in February, I think it got bumped back) and The Sims 3. DoW2 is of course at the top of my list, but I’m also extremely looking forward to Demigod as it’s suppose to be somewhat like the modmap for Warcraft 3 entitled DotA-Allstars. Right now I’ve been playing a ton of Sins of a Solar Empire, which is an absolutely fantastic game and a must-have if you’re into massive RTS styled games, while still trying to finish up Lost Odyssey for the Xbox360.
Also, I’ve finally decided to purchase the foosball table of my dreams, but that won’t occur until the end of the month when more monies come into my possession. Celebration should occur with a keg and a sleepness night filled with twitchy shenanigans!
Since I haven’t been updating regularly for awhile now, I failed to notice that the third party application I use for my comments, Disqus, now reroutes you to their website in order to post comments. This greatly irritates me and I’m going to look into how to stop it and if not, just remove the program from the site.
