• Top 5 Worst Video Game Related Websites of All Time

  Video game websites, like most theme focused sites (e.g. music websites), are a dime a dozen. Everywhere you go, you can find an opinion on video games with an equal amount of bitterness and approval. Some of these websites though, are clearly in the opinion market for other reasons. Some have seen the success of other websites and blatantly copied these originals. Some have even designed multiple websites with contradicting opinions in order to start fake console wars. Some of the most shameful acts from video game related websites have come from those sites who have cowered to public opinion and advertising money by only giving positive reviews to certain video games. One can see with their own eyes how a review went from a 5.0 to a 9.0 after one week, and how after that week, there was an advertisement for the game right next to the new rating. While we certainly don’t want to sound sanctimonious with our video game website ethics, we do realize that there are limits. For one, once a video game has been rated and reviewed, its over and done, even if we disagree with it later. That’s the beauty of writing in the present; we can look back and see how much we agreed or disagreed with our opinions from the past. This hope for a more pure writing and reviewing style has been guided by all these next websites who copy, change, and cower to other outside forces. The lack of any substantial writing from these websites is a signifier to their other motivations.

  Last night, I received a phone call at approximately 7:21pm. It was most disturbing. I missed the call, but the good ole caller ID came through and saved the number. I’m sure your wondering what was so disturbing about a phone call that I missed, so I’ll tell you. I should give warning though that the weak of heart probably shouldn’t read on. I looked at the number that called hoping it was some hot chick and this is what I saw instead:

  0000123456

  Yes. I kid you not. I almost personally wet myself. I laughed a hysterical crazy man’s laugh because I thought I was going to die. I called the number back and it told me the Nextel person I’m trying to call is not available. I also had a nightmare about it too. Anyway, thats my story. Anyone else get funky shit like this?

  “I haven’t slept for ten days because that would be too long” – Mitch Hedberg

  Gandhi didn’t sleep for a long time. He was all messed up because of it. He saw God, had visions, laid down in front of rampaging horses. Muhammed did almost the same thing except without the horses. But he didn’t sleep a lot because an angel kept visiting him while he slept. Then he began reciting stuff.

• Tea

  A while back I bought some celestial seasonings tension tamer tea for my sister, who will remain nameless to protect the witless. I bought it because there was a dragon on the box and I was a bit maniacal about dragons. After 5 months, she decides to try the tea and says it was really good. Now I am a partial skeptic when it comes to herbal remedies trusting to ancient lore rather than what a product’s box says.

  So on an influenced whim, a tea drinker I am not, I bought a box of the tea to try it for myself. Its caffeine free, by the way. I drank it and felt relaxed. This could be because it was a warm liquid or I could be placebo-ing myself into believing I feel relaxed or it might actually have some herb-aputic properties to it. Whatever the case, and ignorance is bliss here, I cant get enough of the stuff. If I am feeling crazy or my mind is racing, I drink a spot ‘o tea and I am feeling pretty chill. I feel like smiling at everything too…birds…rocks…..trees….the horizon….pretty much anything thats just chilli’n too. So ‘ to you sister that recommended tea to me. Without your uncanny fondness to use a gift that someone got for you, I would not be grinning like a baboon as I write this.

  I’m not a member of P.E.T.A., nor do I have any plans to be. Just wanted to clear that up. So you’ve got a friend that you want to get with a good joke and a day or two of discomfort. If you don’t have any friends you’ve got to get one. This isn’t evil enough to pull on an enemy. First, have a friend that has their own pad. You’ve got to know this person well enough to have their schedule known to you. Know when their home and when they aren’t, sleeping, awake, bad, good; just like that stalker Santa.
