$1000

When half of the commercials on a radio station advertise the station itself, and half of the remaining half advertise the fact that they give away $1000 twice a day, how does the station make any money? And why does some other station make a big deal about how they give away $100 per day? […]

Balanced Brawl

I’ve spent most of this afternoon reading about Balanced Brawl, an attempt to balance Super Smash Bros. Brawl for high-level play. I don’t have the skill or reflexes required to play Brawl (or any other game, really) at high levels, but it is fascinating to me to read about. I followed the Melee scene for […]

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, week nine

Well, after a 20-ish minute commercial for Outback Steakhouse we finally got to watch some Survivor tonight. Somewhere in there Parvati and Danielle found a hidden idol, and none of the Heroes bothered listening to J.T. about the challenge they were about to play (which he had already won once). Bloomin’ onions!

J.T. and the […]

The Omegle Files: Haha no

Omegle was a fun website for a while. I got a couple updates out of just posting hilarious random chats I had there, and was planning to do another this week. Kind of a fun, easy thing to do for a blog post when nothing else springs to mind, you know? As long as I […]

Long-lost Son of Three Unrelated Things

Unrelated Thing #1: I stopped trying to make sense of Homestuck like a month ago. Checking the site for new updates used to be exciting; now it’s just wearying. I can’t tell if I want the thing to get back on form or if I want to just stop reading it. It’s one thing to […]

RPGMaker.net is doing this Super Mario Bros. fan level contest thing, so I went and downloaded the Super Mario Bros. fan level program. And then…

In case you can’t tell, that’s my taskbar after the Super Mario thing decided to open up like fifty instances of ffdshow mp3 encoder. (Or decoder. I don’t know […]

Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, week eight

(Late update! Tried to get this typed up my first hour at the office, but wouldn’t ya know they had actual work for me? Oh well!)

Just typical early-in-the-episode stuff, up until the reward challenge. The challenge itself was bowling, and the Heroes won easily. But two interesting things happened which changed the game […]

Let’s Play page updated

I worked on the blog today, but it was mostly behind the scenes stuff. Included in that is a very much needed update of the Let’s Play page. Click on the thing over there in the thing to get at it. Things are a little more complete now.

It’s hard to come up with time […]
