My Dr. Fetus owned christmas tree.
2nd generation Mistfits playing over ten years ago the song Saturday Night live, this was actually a good line-up and good performance. This song and record from it reminds me a lot my first quarter in college a lot, it was when it was it was released and got it.
Old school Halloween music is awesome.
Misfits - Don’t Open Till Doomsday, live, Look at Doyle’s (the guitar player) Star Trek insignia. Hardcore-type Geek for life! NEVER FORGET!
About game projections..
“I have a scale, there is this little graph that says art (honesty) on one side and business (lies) on the other side… the scale for games beams towards one or the other, the further you get towards art the closer you get to honesty and purity. But the business involvement I think is the only thing that keeps games from really being art… its hard to argue that Angry Birds is art, its a business thing… Farmville its business…
The closer you get to business, the closer you get towards lies and manipulation.”

The Problem With The Big Bang Theory…
I’ve been meaning to post something about The Big Bang Theory for a while now but it’s taken me ‘till now to really understand what it is about the show that makes me uncomfortable. I’m not exactly a believer in the whole “only write about the things you like, don’t trash the things you don’t” trend which seems to be plaguing comments sections in negative articles lately, but I wanted to be able to really examine why I don’t like TBBT rather than just slagging it off. My main questions being - Why don’t I like this anymore? Why do I feel uncomfortable watching it? And why do I get so annoyed when I see people sing its praises online? The thing which really sparked this post was seeing a raft of comments on Facebook, below the last round of voting in Television Without Pity’s Tubey Awards, claiming The Big Bang Theory to be “the best comedy on TV”. This made me angry so instead of posting an impulsive comment calling out their bad taste which I’d probably regret later, I decided to really analyse why seeing comments like that made me so mad when previously, although I didn’t really love the show, I’d never considered myself as disliking The Big Bang Theory.
Hell, I even have season one on dvd, it’s sitting right between Battlestar Galactica and Bored To Death in my alphabetised collection.
And here, I think, is where my problem with The Big Bang Theory lies…
