Happy New Year!

Tis but a scratch.

I managed to get into my first ever fender bender. 12 years behind the wheel... had to happen sometime I guess. No one was hurt, no witness or red light cameras, (which according to my DPD sources wouldn't be on anyway shhhhhhhh) so it's a "no fault" situation. Not great, could have been worse, any crash you walk away from, right?

2016 didn't get you, niether did 2017.

So let's show '18 what for. Let's ring this motherf**ker in!

The Division is Lazy

Say hello to literally every other safe house captain. This guy. Every other time. He's also a couple different merchants.

So this write up will be as well. Good loot, costumes, and shooting only gets you so far. At some point you notice New York city, kinda like in real life, is pretty drab and repetitive. If it weren't for my compass I'd have no idea if I was on one side of the map or the other.

Extra Credits already went over how problematic it is that the only people you shoot are either convicts, the poor, and working class stiffs. It somehow manages to be too bland and dim to mean anything by it, though. But I find it a bit hard to accept in the event of a pandemic the entire NY fire department takes up homemade flame throwers and just starts... burning people alive. Jesus f**king Christ why?!

The 3 factions of baddies are just cosmetic. There's always an engineer, grenadier, sniper, melee'er, and grunts. Sometimes the melee guy has a shot gun but that doesn't really make a difference. It's been 26 hours for me and I'm done. I am so bored and so done. If I had paid more than the $15 I did for it this article would be several paragraphs longer and far less kind.

No I'm not going to buy your "mods" Bethesda.

 The skins on sale ARE pretty good. I'll give you that much.

...But I do like this free white pip boy. Thank you. Merry Christmas.

Hollow Knight is $10.

$9.89 American, to be exact. Look, this is my game of the year and is a steal at twice the price. You want me to beg? Because if Team Cherry closes their doors I am NOT going to be ok with it. Wails will be heard. Teeth will be gnashed.

The craziest f**king thing happened today.

So y'all have probably noticed the precipitous drop off in posts in the last month or 2. I've been busy with a new job and while that's no excuse, my current situation has given me a pretty damn decent interview story.

 I had a sit down for a new gig this afternoon and while I was waiting for that to start I felt a sneeze coming on. I'd been sick last week and felt I was out of the woods. That sneeze was apparently the last bump in the road. I look at the bottom of my fore arm ( the correct place for all good gentleman and ladies to sneeze) and see an avocado pit sized ball of snot. I don't have any tissues on me. So I decide to just grab it and make a beeline for the rest room. This is the precise moment when the manager abruptly sits down in front of me and begins.

We do the entire bloody thing while the blob squelches in my fist under the table. We finish and it went well! I shake with my left hand and I ask where the restroom is. Fate's gonna have to try a lot harder next time.

C&C GOTY Spectacular!

Thanks, Jamie Bull!

This is our last episode of the year seeing as one of us is off to a destination wedding. I think we made it count!

Best of 2017
