This guy's rants are among the most entertaining I've heard.
I have no idea how people can set aside 24 minutes of their day to watch something like that.
I look at a guy like this and think about how much money he probably gets thanks to ad revenue and whatnot and I wonder why the hell I didn't think of that idea first.

:) Finally back from my papaws house that we were cleaning out, there was no internet, little TV and I had to sit around all day and help my mom occasionally.
:oops: Last night, we thought we heard footsteps outside, couldn't see anyone, and when we checked the disconnected phone that still had 911 service, there was no dial tone. My mom called the non emergancy #, the cops came an saw no one and this morning, my mom called the pone company and was told the phone wasn't supposed to have a dial tone anymore.
Oh well.

My mom called with her cell phone after she found it, woops. It was just me and my mom.

Smile: Fun day of yard sailing in the morning, a Ketsui initiation in the afternoon, and a nice homemade Italian candlelight family dinner with Dean Martin on the turntable.

Frown: Need to spend the rest of the evening doing research/writing to finish prep for a book interview on Monday. No going to see Wolverine, no more fiddling with my yard sale finds, and (unless I finish) no more Ketsui tonight.

Bah! went to go somewhere and there's a screw sticking out of one of my tires. At least it didn't happen in the middle of nowhere last weekend and it's still holding air for now so hopefully I can limp to the tire place next door on Monday.

BoneSnapDeez wrote:Maybe you should make some videos about video games.

Like, make a 20 minute video where you take games out of boxes and explain to everyone what a cartridge looks like and what instruction booklets are.
Or you could make a 50 episode series about your "latest pick-ups."
Better yet, make an "angry" "rant" about something that makes you really mad!

Make sure your camera is strategically positioned in front of your giant WALL OF GAMES.

Lastly, don't just suggest but demand that all viewers "like" and subscribe.
Why that sounds like.... 90% of YouTube's gaming videos right there!

I thought about the other day, why do all these game videos have to have these game collection wall backgrounds? Most everyone does it. Those that do get millions of hits and subscribers. It must be a side effect of those neatly arranged NES cartridges and red Genesis boxes :lol:

:D Weekend was pretty good, but went by too fast. Watched a few movies, played a few games and my Chinese Mantis molted into an L4 (Doubled in size!).

:evil: I have to take a 6 hour course to get my Driver's License here in Texas because I'm under 25. I didn't have to do all this crap back when I moved from Minot to Louisiana. With me working Graveyard, it's going to be hell trying to get all this crap done. Maybe I'll just ride a bike until next year when I can simply take the test.

:? Well. There's lots of word that the company is going through some major changes behind the scenes. All we've been told is that there's some new management coming in.

:) I sat down to feed my Ghosts tonight. I gave them honey as a treat and let them "socialize" for the first time. It was hilarious to watch them interact with each other. Ghosts are a very shy, but curious and inquisitive species. I was sitting on the floor playing with bugs for nearly two hours and didn't even notice...

It's basically 6 hours of shock videos about texting/drunk driving, with a bit of test prep tossed in.

I just went and did it on one of my days off.
