What Have You Done, Microsoft?

First, there was the Xbox. Then, there was the Xbox 360. Now comes XBOX… One…

From this revelation, I’ve learned the following;

Playstation 4 > Xbox ONE
Retron 5 > Xbox ONE
Nintendo 64 > Xbox ONE
Windows 98 > Xbox ONE
Atari 7800 > Xbox ONE

Because everything is greater than ONE… and stuff.

Oh wait… almost forgot. X68000 > Xbox ONE.
Superman II > Xbox ONE.

Anybody else got some stupid Xbox One jokes? Get them out in the open before Microsoft starts retroactively purging them from existence. Or something. I don’t know. I’m going to bed. Good night.

Contemplation

The dog is here to keep me company while I contemplate.

There comes a point where you can’t go on with something because you lose interest in it. It tends to happen quite a bit, but the really sad thing is that when you lose interest in something and it gets abandoned, you tend to lose a bit of yourself in the process. This is more often than not the case.

Every once in a while, I have people asking me when the next part of Reading Sonichu is coming along and more often than not, I have no real answer for them.

But as I’m assembling the pages and putting together the audio for this thing, I realized something; why am I wasting time with this stuff? That’s when it occured to me that this isn’t interesting anymore.

Here’s the thing; the Sonichu comic/universe/fanfic/whatever is awful material. For some, it’s that so bad it’s good that makes it worth riffing. The first couple issues that I did were fun to do, but when it came to the next issue, not so much. And as I jumped further into the lore of series, it eventually got to the point where I felt genuinely uncomfortable reading this stuff, let alone producing anything to do with that whole endeavor.

Reading Sonichu was never going to be an ongoing thing. At most, I’d touch about three or four issues before calling it a day. With the two issues that I’ve done, I’m more than satisfied to call it a run.

Maybe somewhere down the line, I might upload the first few pages of issue 2 that I dubbed as an Archive package, but for now… I think it’s time to kill off the Sonichu experiment as far as this blog is concerned.

Random Thoughts On… Random Stuff

Couple topics that don’t merit their own individual posts, so let’s shoot them out in one post right now…

– Last night’s RAW was… meh. Apparently, the newest Paul Heyman guy is Joe Hennig with a new name, Curtis Axel… Well, it’s a step up from Michael McGillicutty, that much I’ll say. And how nice was it of that HHH chap to put this guy over in his first night by making a complete ass out of him before stumbling to a really WTF ending. Who won the match? They never said a thing on that… Oh, and Ryback wants an Ambulance Match with Johnny C… god, this show hurts my head sometimes.

– Actually, I’m just glancing at WWE.com and it turns out Axel won by forfeit… that’s what happens when you don’t announce your wins. Lame.

– So Irate Gamer uploaded his latest video episode and it’s on the NES Star Trek… meh. That was my only really reaction. This was just meh. Nothing about the video was particularly funny in either an intention or unintentional sense. I was just… meh. I’ve got nothing.

That’s it. I’m done for now.

Later.

Star Trek V Chair Poster

Found this on the hard drive the other day. Don’t know where I got this from originally, but it’s a vaguely interesting post depicting the U.S.S. Enterprise en route to encounter the alien chair from deep space.

Or at least, that’s what this poster tells me.

Fun fact: this was the first Star Trek movie I saw in theaters. Not exactly an auspicious start to the Trek movie going experience, but for all the bad this movie offers, there are some genuinely heartfelt and fun moments.

Or at least, I’d like to think so…

Also… seatbelts in the movie theater? While watching Star Trek?

RUINED FOREVER, GOD-DAMMIT!
