Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

but just to point out the extreme case of consumer karma: Daikatana.

What about Superman 64?

Also works. Not, perhaps, as iconic.

Looking at the Wikipedia article, looks like Daikatana has Superman beat just on the development and deadline side of things alone.

Minecraft is viral by its own nature.

If you can have unlimited resources and build what you want, most people would do so in any situation. Its why people loved console commands in The Sims years before Minecraft. The building of the house was often more fun than the simulation within. Its why Skyrim even lives up to the hype - you can make yourself whatever you want to be and there's no way to do it wrong. If I want to build Stonehenge or a giant Kefka in Minecraft, I can. No one can stop me.

On a completely different note:

I am not generally bothered by my personal aesthetics, but when I hold up my underwear to fold it, it makes me think that my ass must be way bigger than I imagine.

Back from doing a double shift. Overnight and morning. I feel like death.

Left for the grocery store.

Forgot my keys.

Thankfully the grocery store is within walking distance. Well, three mile round trip but I wasn't just going to sit outside the apartment sweating and waiting for my roommate to get back. I just got a free California roll for my troubles ^.^b it had fried onions in it.

My peeve: Having to read almost all of TM's posts... twice. First on facebook when my phone dings his new status update... and then again on whatever thread it surfaces in.

It's a peeve because I always feel compelled to post the same thing in response as I did on facebook. However... doing so makes me feel redundant.

FYI: Evony is essentially malware disguised as a bad online flash game. Don't play it or you pretty much deserve what is coming to you.

What a coincidence. This just got uploaded today:

Makerbots are pretty awesome. I've been trying to learn Blender in the hopes of making my own video game figurines and printing them on a Makerbot. Fuck paying $200 for a decent Samus figurine.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

I did not know maker bot was a thing until just now.

I want one.

Can anyone spare $2k?

I compromise by not commenting at all. It's not that I don't like TM. Far from it. I am just afraid of redundancy.
