Random Thoughts for 12 Jan 2014

- Seattle people are assholes. Period. Also, to Seahawks fans, I have one thing to say: Feel free to suck-start a shotgun like your boy Kurt Cobain. That is all.

- 'Operation: Flawless Victory' is already underway. I'm pricing out the cartridges online right now. The list on Price Charting's website lists a few titles I've never heard of before, mostly because they were rumored prototypes and more homebrews. Too bad that a 7800 version of Crystal Castles doesn't actually exist. It wouldn't have been as good as the arcade version but, it would have been LIGHT YEARS better than the 2600 version.

- I hate it when female Porn Stars try to call themselves 'regular girls.' Bitch, YOU FUCK ON FILM!!! THERE IS NOTHING REGULAR ABOUT THAT AT ALL!!!

- Speaking of Porn, I am getting VERY sick and tired of so-called 'Christians' constantly trying to demonize that industry. That industry does a good enough job demonizing itself without the help of a Bible-thumping pastor.

- Why do I think that Porn does a good enough job demonizing itself? Well, constantly trying to force people into doing things they don't want to do might be one of them. If a nude model doesn't want to screw someone on camera, don't try to change her mind. If a starlet thinks that a particular sex act is too gross/painful, then it probably is, mang! Afterall, would you want to have some guy with a 12" cock fucking you in the ass? No, I didn't think so!

- Finally, The porn industry has NOTHING to do with global sex trafficking at all. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Quit trying to insinuate that BULLSHIT. Hell, Penn & Teller already did an episode of their show "Penn & Teller: Bullshit!" about the Porn industry already and thoroughly disproved that non-sense.

- Anyone that posts anything to Facebook about Kim Kardashian that also ends up in my newsfeed is getting blocked. 'Nuff said.

- I need to spend more time trying to learn the ins and outs of the Linux OS. It is FAR better than Windows in virtually every way. The only reason I keep Windows around now is for old games that won't work in WINE or whatever other emulators may be out there for Linux...

- Speaking of which, I have a number of old programs that I need to install on my Linux Distro in WINE. My old copy of Photoshop CS2 (since the Linux equivalent named 'GIMP' is just plain terrible), a few games and maybe a few other things too...

- I miss the days when I had a new episode of a great Sci-Fi TV show to look forward to every week. I don't care if it was Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Doctor Who or something else.

- Okay, that last one was a lie. I miss Star Trek more than all the rest. Still, I do miss seeing new episodes of BSG and DW on the Sci-Fi Channel every Friday night.

- Also, I miss when the Sci-Fi Channel actually still cared about Sci-Fi, when it wasn't called 'SyFy', DIDN'T waste their money on made-for-TV B-Movies and aired pro-wrestling shows.

- I need to get caught up on DW. The last episode I saw was the first one with the latest companion Clara Oswald. I have been a negligent Whovian.

- That being said, I haven't seen every single adventure from the first 7 Doctors, either. Some of them are difficult to find, even on P2P download sites. Demonoid used to be great for that but, alas, someone found a way to shut them down.

- Now that I think of it, I need to get caught up on the latest season of True Blood too.

- There are several things I'm going to do when I finally do return home to NOLA for good:

1.) Organize all the stuff I have in storage, especially my game/home video/music collections.

2.) Spend a LOT of time with my dog.

3.) Have a bonfire at a friend's house out in the country with some very special fuel in the form of some old clothing I don't need/want anymore. I may film it and put it on YouTube as well. No, those clothes can't be donated to a clothing drive. Yes, there is a damned good reason for that too. There will be more info on this bonfire once I finally get back to where I belong.

- That reminds me... I am thinking of switching over to Vimeo since Google is fucking around with YouTube so much.

- Google, take it from me, your attempt at a social networking site (aka Google+) is not going anywhere. Facebook has that market to themselves. The only reason Twitter even exists (let alone has popularity) is because Hollywood people use it a lot and Twitter has seemingly no restrictions on the kind of links and pics you can post there. That might also explain why Porn Stars seem to prefer Twitter over Facebook... Hmmm...

- I just talked on the phone to the guy who sold me a few Jaguar games a few months ago at Play Raven. I may be able to get a Jaguar system out of him. More details to follow.

- As of right now, my game collection stands at 69 systems (including all consoles, portables, computers and multiple copies) and 830 Titles spread across them. The actual number of games is much higher at a whopping 2,749 because many of the titles are 'greatest hits' collections and compilations. And I still want more... God help me and my wallet...
