Another Futile Ostentation

Another Futile Ostentation
A narcissistic outlet to express my opinions on things that matter little in the grand scheme. Meant as a companion piece to the other blog I post to, but whose readers may not have the desire to hear my thoughts on such matters as music, sports, and philosophy.

Awesome

Just found this and I must say...easily one of the most fun, yet juvenile things I've come across inawhile. Goodtimes.

Still Puppy Killing.

1) Just bought Madden 2005 for the DS since I had FS gift certs drilling holes in my pocket. I really suck at it. No I mean it. I suck at it in ways I've never thoughh imaginable. Helps I know nothing about football...but still. I'm ok at executing plays on offense, but I can't make defensive plays to save my life. I imagine that this is probably what the real Seahawks are like anyways I guess. Still, the game is kinda fun, and maybe I'll get the hang of it...I just need to learn how to play.

2) I'm growing soft. I cried watching Eternal Sunshine th eother night. I've seen the movie like 4 times already....what the fuck?! Emo level rising.

3) Corinne is horribly addicted to Mr Driller Spirits. It's kinda funny.

4) Watched the Big One today. Not bad really. Underrated I think. It has some really good moments and I think the problems it deals with are more cause for concern than Farenheit 911 and Bowling. NOt as well made but good.

5) Tried to watch Grind and Extreme Ops these last few days, but the badness prevented me. It was fucking horrible. At least Grind had good clips of boarders, I didn't really catch enough of ex-O to find out...the badness was palpable.

Crap

It's been sometime since I posted here.

more than a week and a haff by the looks of things.

Well, unlike Paul, I am not dead.

Just lazy.

And my DS has taken a lot of my time.
