Spent my lunch break scrolling through the drama on the Mass Effect 3 forums. (For those who didn't notice Loki's countdown in several sections of this forum: it is a newly released space opera game that ends a trilogy and offered both excellent gameplay and an above average story in the first 2 installments).
Apparently, the unwashed masses are displeased with the possible endings to the game and vent their rage in such impotent ways that it almost becomes cute in the same way a three-legged puppy would be: they just can't help it and their handicap is there for all to see and fuss over. It turns out there are a lot of three-legged puppies in the world of computer gaming.
Were I a smarter guy, I'd pose a philosophical question like 'what is more important, the journey or the destination?'. I'm not, and thus this nerd-rage over pixels becomes, in a cruel way, a slapstick comedy which manages to cause a diabolical sense of pleasure at other people's emotions in me.
If people react this badly to a 10 minute game sequence after having an amazing ride through around a 100 hours of gameplay (which, after all, made them buy this 3rd game), what will they do when they get into a real crisis? Roll into a fetus position, whimper and cry that it isn't fair, boohoo? Gosh, grow a pair.

It is perfectly monstrous the way people go about nowadays saying things against one, behind one's back, that are absolutely and entirely true.

I thought that was a kind of funny email sent around our department today. It made me chuckle anyways.
"Dear all,
One of the questions I’m often asked in the CCC office is, “James, why don’t you run more competitions?”
Well, we take your feedback very seriously and I can therefore announce that we have two copies of Prof Lewis Wolpert’s book, You’re looking Very Well, to give away…in Korean.
To win reply to with two affirmatives to the following questions:
1) Can you read Korean?
2) Would you like a free copy of You’re Looking Very Well by Lewis Wolpert, in Korean?
The first two winning entries will be informed by e-mail and may collect their prize from Anatomy 117.
If you can’t answer yes to both questions, please don’t reply as that will turn your entry into division wide spam.
Best,
James."
For privacy protection reasons I have obviously changed name and office.

I'm undecided over this which is why I haven't chosen to moan too much about the ending of the remake of Battlestar Galactica....

That's a good one! I got one a while ago about "Unauthorised toaster usage". The mind boggles!

Everything except my desktop computer and my cat are now moved the gf's place. The majority of the junk I was tossing out is at the curb (more needs to go out once that stuff gets taken), and all that is left is for me to clean the rest of the old apt (tonight) and I will be for all intents and purposes - moved.
Phew. I'll be glad when it is all done, but I was very glad to get the majority of the junk out last night.

ME3 unlocked.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
EDIT: Without giving anything away - There is a mission in ME3 that I am doing right now and it is totally channeling another awesome sci-fi!!!! It's bloody brilliant!!! XD
EDIT 2: My number one gaming friend is just behind me in ME3 and we just had a 30 minute conversation about how awesome it is. Only reason we had to stop was because Matador was leaving to go to the football and wanted a little attention before he went. Honestly, I saw him last night!
ME3 = AWESOME!

Skipped a lecture today to hang out with friends It's all good though cause they're online. Then after I was done I went to my new friend's house in Box Hill and we basically just chilled around and watched Van Helsing while eating nachos.
