A close friend of mine lost his Mother to some superflu just weeks ago. She felt weak, sick, pain, and... died in a matter of days.

I don't feel like myself, so I'll probably take a quick trip to urgent care after 3pm.

Scratch that.

I need to get off my laptop and out of bed (yes, this has been pillowtalk with Luke) go take my dog on a walk or ride my bike. Get the blood pumping.

such a stupid/funny line.

My father in law had West Nile Virus a few months ago and came out ok, thank goodness. It was weird seeing him like that. The guy's basically a mix of Dr. Frankenstein, McGyver and Stephen Hawking. Well, maybe not as smart as Hawking, but the guy is a friggin' genius. He built an acetylene cannon out of a pipe, spark plug and a stun gun. Anyway it was rough seeing him like that. Glad he came out ok.

Yep., I totally remember that time that kid ran into school with a copy of Gears of War in his right hand, and COD in his left, then unloaded game discs and instruction manuals, mowing down the crowd of kids and littering the halls with their bodies. :roll:

[...] The Second Amendment to the Constitution limits what we can do about guns.
Also, this just plainly isn't true. The second amendment protects the right to a firearm. Not Panzer tanks and tomahawk missiles.

It's okay now. Nintendo has made all the WiiU discs nice and rounded so you don't accidentally murder somebody with a blu-ray.

I know...it makes me so mad that I just want to go unload a few complete copies of Earthbound when I get home from work. There will be manuals, stickers, carts, oversized cardboard boxes, inserts, and small plastic bags literally everywhere. After that, I might just pop off a few Atari carts into the sky just for the hell of it...

Anything's better than going back to the wild-west days of Compact Discs and Cassette Tapes.

Dude, relax. No one wants to see you unleash that much carnage and devastation. We're here for you. Just-- just think of the children, all right?

Even though we're driving a metaphor, I think we should draw a line somewhere...right?
