Lady gets monkey back, world rejoices
6
So, last spring I went on MSNBC to talk about… oh, I don’t remember, it was either “Geek Fight Club” or the “Dangers of MySpace. ”
There was a woman being interviewed before me, and she was very distraught, and talking about how her monkey was taken away from her! It was like her child. The interviewer was really nice, but the transition from the monkey story to mine was really awkward. Something like:
“We really hope you and your monkey are reunited! Best of luck. And now, geeks that are beating the crap out of each other!”
Well, it looks like she got her monkey back. Congrats!
Oh FSJ, why break my heart?
15Dan Lyons (a.k.a. Fake Steve Jobs) gave an interview to Wallstrip recently, and in the brief ten seconds that I was discussed my heart was filled with joy…. and then crushed.
Apparently Lindsay is “nicer” than I am. Nicer? NICER?
Hold on a second, I need to compose myself… it just… well, it just hurts. Yes, she doesn’t taunt him and call him “mad dog” or anything the way I have in the past, but it was all in good fun! I tease because I love. Is this because I beat up Bike Helmet Girl? Whatever, she had it coming.
*sigh*
Guess I’ll go play WoW, or sleep, or something…

Having had no free time to play Halo 3 since returning from Japan a week ago, Ryan gives me a brief glimpse into the coming weeks:
Ryan: I’m going to play Halo 3 now.
Veronica: OK. Mind if I sit here?
Ryan: No, I don’t mind, just make zero noise and don’t bug me.

This is by far the funniest comparison I’ve seen of the three major consoles. Yahtzee Croshaw produces this hilarious series called Zero Punctuation on The Escapist, and this is how I wish Prizefight could have been (if it were animated, curse-heavy, and with an accent).
Thanks to kkc, who sent this to me!
