First the meme, as tagged by Mario:
1. Gundam
I li3k giant robots, but I'm old enough to remember Voltron and Robotech being my first exposure to animoo-ro-bits. Like the majority of you fucks, Toonami introduced me to Wing, MS 8th, Stardust Memory, War in the Pocket, G, and other UC series sans ZETA. I actually got into ZETA myself, and thanks to my 2 year stint @ Gamestop, I managed to buy the first 5 volumes of SEED for like 20 bucks. I really dont have a favorite series, as there's a lot of quality Gundam stuff out there and it's hard to chose, but SEED will always have a special place in my nerd-heart, only for the wacky amount of fun I had cosplaying it with Carrie, Mario and the rest of G-Unit. OO's been pretty solid, if not overrated, and I'm REALLY looking foward to this new UC...series? OVA? Dunno, but the character designs and staff won me over.
2. Halo 2
It's common fact that if you suck @ Halo 3, X box live will inform you to return to Halo 2. To be honest, while I had some fun with some multiplayer modes in Halo 2, I much prefer the original or 3 to 2.
3. Domino's Pizza
Shitty pizza, but oh man, those oven-baked sammiches are "The bomb". And so much better than Pizza Hut, which is pretty much the shittiest of the chain pizzas (Indirectly, fuck you Geass, you're only good for porn and free con badges). I live in Bay Ridge, so I know what good pizza actually tastes like. I'm kinda a pizza-snob.
4. NERD AVENGERS: ORIGINS
Sean Ewing wanted to get back into buying comics. He sougt my help. This was the smartest thing he's probably ever done that's not directly related to purchasing video games. Thanks to Civil War, I got to start out hanging with him, AJ and a fuckton of other people that are Ewing related. I brought out the Stampede, who is also Sean-like in apperance, and that was the original running crew, until we got the fairer sex involved, aka Maryann, Judy and Sara.
Nowadays, the numbers grown quite a bit, and it's a good crew of people with nerd-related interest. NA is usually the highlight of the work week, and I couldn't ask for a better group of buds. Also looking foward to having Carrie join our ranks on a regular basis this spring/summer.
5. CHris
I really dont ask about this alot, which I fine kinda odd. Anywho, note the dual capitalization. Back in the early days of NYO! (late 2001) anywho who met up with the original crew kept in touch via a Yahoo Message Board. When I would sign my post, I'd double capitalized the "C" and "H" because Chris is a very common name, and it helps ppl tell the difference. That and I REALLY don't like being referred to by my last name, although I know it helps ppl point out who I am, and it's better than referring to me by an internet handle. Although a LOT of ppl do refer to me as Starwind @ cons, and to be honest, it isn't all that bad.
Anywho that aside, the lease is sign and the apartment is now 100% mine. I'm poorer now, but it was worth it. Apartment got, I'll be moving in slowly over the next couple of weeks AND I'm excited. A little neverous as well, but as I said in the last post, that goes with the terrority.
Anywho gamewise, still playing Street Fighter IV, as well as Sean Ewing's copy of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, which I think is a flawed, but solid game. It's probably the best Spidey game since Ultimate, although I wish they kept the cell-shaded graphic engine.
This weekend is gonna be busy as hell, but I'm excited for it. Tomorrow night is "Have fun or Die Tryin'" which I'm keeping the details under wrapped until after it happens.
Saturday, I'm meeting up with Peter early to "discuss the future" (His cryptic words not mine.) picking up Carrie from Penn and will meet up with the Jeresians. Eventually TEE! and I will meet up with Ginny and Monty, for Gundam-fundam AND celebrating's M b-day. Sunday is reserved for cleaning up ze apartment.
Soon I have to make a post regarding my gameplan for the next few weeks, as well as what the plan is for the summer con seasons. If you're guessing Gurren, G00, and FF8/Dissidia....then yea, you know me. |
