It’s the hat, isn’t it?

We’re playing Mafia over at Talking Time. You may be more familiar with the “Werewolf” version of the game (rules here). It is basically a game that feeds on paranoia and uncertainty, which is exactly the environment where assholes like me can thrive brilliantly.

After seven game-days and nearly a month of playing we have […]

Revenge of the Two Completely Unrelated Thoughts

Unrelated thought the first: We have a lot of wedding and/or bridal magazines laying around, probably because Peanut is getting married to somebody. I was amazed at how massive these magazines were until I actually picked up one and flipped through it, thereby discovering that a full 50%-60% of them are advertisements. At first this […]

Brand new 42″ HDTV…

…and she’s using it to watch Lifetime Original Movies.

WOMEN. Am I right, guys?

Also no, I don’t know how to take a proper picture of a TV screen, thanks for asking. I’m kind of impressed the glare forms such a perfect circle though. Maybe I should put the awesome.jpg face in there.

Happy Birfday, scibbe.com!

You guys? I made it. 365 daily updates. Not all of them were on time. Not all were worth reading. Hell, not all of them were even worth typing. But I made it one whole year and I have no intention of stopping. Putting something, anything here on this page is now very much a […]

Cue trombone sounds.

From 2005 to 2008 I maintained a blog about my experiences working in the drug test industry. Every Sunday I revive one of those experiences here. The following was originally posted July 20, 2007.

Cue trombone sounds. I’ve been handling supply orders in the office for the past month or so. The girl […]

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, week one

Wow, what a way to kick off the season. First thing I noticed: the theme song is a mishmash of previous themes, just as it was in All-Stars. Second thing I noticed: Probst seems to be having a lot of fun with this group. He knows these people, and they know him. And we […]

No vlog today! Because I suck.

I should put up a vlog today, but I slept in, and then a thing happened, and then someone was [i]wrong on the internet[/i] and I had to take care of that, and then another thing happened, and then I played Rock Band for an hour. And now I’m out of time.

Or maybe I […]

EVERYTHING 30% OFF

Okay so I guess President’s Day is as good an excuse as any to hold a MASSIVE SAVINGS BLOWOUT (BLOWOUT BLOWOUT blowout blowout), but come on people. There’s a line you shouldn’t cross:

If you can’t spot it, here’s a hint: these guys aren’t on money to make it easier for you to turn […]

Mass Effect 2: Thoughts on the Crew

I was surprised how large a role Shepard’s crew actually played in the original Mass Effect. One of the things I’ve always liked about Japanese RPGs versus western ones are the colorful casts… the sense of “these are the good guys — my good guys”. There’s a very strict, solid line drawn between a character […]

Suikoden VI: The 108 Stars of Destiny

There is no Suikoden VI, of course. But it’s nice to speculate. And speculate we did, shortly after Suikoden V came out several years ago. My good buddy FD and I had long conversations about what the grand finale of the Suikoden series might be like: nations from all over the globe teaming up to […]
