I thought you mean the earth turning into molted slag, but that video was far worse (though I still liked it).

I know, the researchers will tell you the same class of particles being investigated routinely bombard the earth so you could sleep peacefully on your pillow tonight, unless you read this . . http://www.dallasfed.org/news/speeches/fisher/2008/fs080528.cfm 

for a round of golf tomorrow morning. te-hee 

that "one about video games" is so awesome

I remember one (similarly sarcastic and hilarious) night manager talking about "strategic soul-crushing" when I worked at a fast food place in 2000/1.

btw Lunaran, you have a damn awesome attitude.

The games industry has almost no interest for me anymore. I really look back fondly on the days when playing computer games at all made you a social outcast. Now a massive economy is based on various internet social networks, and they actually make games like The Sims, in fact most games are based on some other pop culture shit, games are exactly like movies now. Not only are the days of 10 nerds brainstorming in a bar and making an awesome game gone, but the days of ANYONE making an awesome game (by my taste) are also gone.

I think my entire life is me frantically fleeing the influence over culture that the average person has. As George Carlin said, "Think about how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of em are stupider than that." 

There are still a lot of very good games being made, although I obviously have to agree that the industry as a whole has been moving in the wrong direction (from my POV) for some time now.

Metal Gear Solid 4, Unreal Tournament 3, Gears of War, World of Warcraft, Stalker, Oblivion are just a few of the games I consider to be true gems of the past few years. That being sad, the noise to signal ratio of good games to shit games has been increasing at a sad pace. 

World of Warcraft is only a good game in the same way crack cocaine is a good way to release and relax. 

if you like me you'll love Daniel Clowes

I think what I like about your attitude is that you're in the industry, but you're anti-commercial
