This is just going to be a short blog of the games that I have bought as of late. If you have heard already, Best Buy has a buy 2 get 1 free deal going on until Sunday 11/1.

I decided to get Demon's Souls, Borderlands, and Tekken 6. Since there were a few other games I wanted as well, my friend who I'm visiting in Ohio right now got R&C, Batman: Arkham Asylum, and Uncharted 2. That way when he is home we can trade off games and I'll be able to play all of them.

For the month of November, Modern Warfare 2 and the God of War Collection are on my list of purchases. Well that's pretty much it. Just a quick update. Oh and Happy Halloween to all of you. Stay out of trouble

What's up everyone? In case you didn't notice (which would be very likely), I was inactive on GS for the past week or so due to me being suspended.

Now what could a nice guy like myself (debatable) have done to get suspended?

To be as brief as possible in order to avoid another possible suspension, a topic was created on SW saying "I thought the PS3 was supposed to be for mature gamers". The TC noted that Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 does not feature blodd in it. Since I am fairly annoyed by people who have not played the game saying it has no blood, I got irritated. In my post I said, "anyone who thinks that game does not have blood is being moronic." Flaming= 7-Suspension. Yay...

With all that aside, I was tagged by tagyhagto do an about me type thing. She's a very cool user and very knowledgeable about video games. I did a blog a long time ago saying 10 things you did not know about me, so some of these will be repeats. Well, here we go:

Random Facts: I'm left handed, I don't do drugs or drink alcohol, I somehow offend people I don't know with my shyness (or being cold they call it).

Things I like: Playing video games, Speeding, Driving with the windows down, procrastinating homework, staying up late (It's 4:40 am right now), sleeping in late, this song, and pizza

Things I don't like: (See previous blog) as well as, Driving behind buses (GTFO OF MY WAY!!!), Old people who complain a lot (especially about the room temperature), People who walk slow, Pseudo-Intellectuals, People who eat muffins with a fork, majority of internet lingo, the following genres of music: Pop-Hop (or present day Rap/Hip-Hop) and Country, People who throw grenades at me on video games (ie. every person I have ever played against), Monday mornings, and Long drives when I'm not driving

So I guess I have to tag some people now:

• Chaos_Bladez
• M0wen10
• NaughtyRag

And to end this, I though I would include a picture of myself for those of you who do not know what I look like. This picture is from when I was 18, but it's the most recent one I have of me:

What's going everyone? I'm going to go on a little rant here about things that irritate me to no ends. I kind of stole the idea from my friend Furi-Kunhere on GS. We had similar peeves on the things that he brought up. I will discuss some of those, as well as some others. Anyway, here we go:

1. People who eat Cheeseburgers upside down. HOLY ****! I don't know if any of you have had the displeasure of seeing somebody who consistently does this, but let me tell you, it's ridiculous. I guess I just don't understand the idea of turning your burger upside down and having to twist your wrist around just to pick it up. I can't exactly pin point why this bothers me so much, but if I see somebody I'm with do it, I will comment on it every time

If I ever own my own business, this sign will be posted up on every wall. "No food or drink, No upside down cheeseburgers"

2. These following words:

Hybrid- This word is being thrown all over the place just to make things sound more interesting.

Premium- Another word that marketers use to make things seem much better than they really are. At the restaurant I work at, we don't have "trash bags", we have "Ultra Premium Can Liners". Thing is, they look, and feel, A LOT like trash bags to me. They even rip if I put cardboard inside.

I even saw some DLC for Burnout Paradise referred to as "Premium DLC". It's all the same to me. Adding the word premium doesn't make it any nicer

Alcove- The word itself just angers me by the way its pronounced. I can't stand searching for collectible items in video games and while looking through the guide it says on nearly every line "It's in the next room, right inside the little alcove". Ugh

-zorz- How this suffix even made it's way into existence just baffles me. Anytime I see someone using that, I feel the need to punch them in the face (I had to punch myself in the face just typing it). Of the various forms I have seen it in, the ones that made me gasp were "LuLZorZ" and n00bzOrZ..... I'm just going to stop right there

3. People who purposely misspell words because they are either too lazy to type them out or they think it's cool. My favorite is when somebody asks for help on something and they plea "HELP PLZ". Plz??? Wtf is that? Oh they mean PLEASE! Hmm, well they can even make 3 more keystrokes to spell that word out, so I'm not even going to waste my time trying to help them.

If you have been a keeping up with my infrequent blogs, you may remember this one, where I poked fun at this topic as well. Also, I stumbled across this when I was looking for a single person to pinpoint my hatred on, and I nearly had a stroke.

4. Wendy's Commercials- Shortly after the death of Dave Thomas (Founder of Wendy's), the company decide to obtain this new persona that led them to believe that they are better than other fast food restaurants. The old Wendy's commercials showed the red head, Wendy, perfectly happy sitting there in her sign without saying a word, like a good girl. But now, she talks, she dances, and most of all, she's really annoying. There are times when I want to eat "Wayyyyyyyyyy better, Wayyyyyyyyyyyyy later", but I'm not taking her advice for it. I'll go to 7-11 and get myself a bag of Doritos, some beef jerky, and a liter of Dr. Pepper instead of buying into those stupid commercials.

^ These people have the right idea

And what is with their new tag line "It's wayyyy better than fast food, it's Wendy's!"? Last I checked, Wendy's was a fast food joint. They can think they're above and beyond all the want, but they are no different than a McDonalds or Jack-in-the-Box.

I will most likely be doing another one of these (with more pictures). I have a list saved on Word of about 20 different things, but I wanted to keep this blog fairly short, and some of the things are not appropriate for this site. I hope you all enjoyed reading, even if you just skimmed and read the bold text. Even if you did, I don't mind, what's why I put it there

Feel free to let me know what grinds your gears. Maybe I have missed some that I just need to be reminded of.
