Happy birthday to one of my favourite haters, Charles Darwin
The alien from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode who speaks only in metaphors saying "clavicular mid jestergoon, his cortisol spiked!"
Alright, I can't help it.
Am I too late?
Holy cow, I've waited so long for mgs4 to be liberated from the ps3 hardware

The worst part of this time of year is when you die on New Year's Eve right before the save point, and have to start your run from all the way back on January 1st.

A completely black screen with a lime green DvD logo on one side. There's a single dead pixel on the disk.
I made a dvd logo screensaver simulator! It's almost the same, except it can't hit corners, and there's a built-in dead pixel. Because fuck you.
