You mess with Mozart, you get a bullet in the head from Butch Cassidy!
I originally started this post at 1, but then there was an incident that I had to look into. I thought it was nothing, but it actually turned out to be something, so I had to spend the next couple of hours dealing with it. Anyways, on to our originally scheduled programming:
Hmm, one of the new vids on gametrailers is a GT special on the new Nissan GT_R. That is one sweet machine. (frakkin 0-60 in 3.2 seconds, that's unsane! That's like Porsche 911 Turbo performance!) And I didn't realize it would have a semi-automatic transmission. Righteous! I'm glad more of these performance sport cars are having such set ups. Mebbe its because I can't drive stick, but even if I did, it seems better to not have to worry about a pesky clutch pedal. I dunno, mebbe some people like that sort of thing, but I just wanna go fast and not have to deal with all that manual crap during stop and go traffic!
Started playing Yoshimoto in SW2, since he's the only character I have yet to play. Eh, even though he sucks, I feel the need to play him for completeness' sake. (And I felt bad for him, since his l1 title is "lonely buffoon". Truthfully, his moveset isn't horrible. But his special attack is to frickin' play dead! You do r1+tr, and he just collapses on the ground! What use is that?!
Owel, because of the aforementioned incident, I missed the 1am showing of this week's Riches. Yeah, it shows three times between 10pm and 2am, but I missed the first two showings for other reasons. I caught the first ten minutes, though all I recall was DiDi's plaid skirt was of the proper short length!
Heh, I'm getting old. A few weeks ago, I was scandalized when I was driving home from work and saw some teen girl waiting for the school bus outside her house and she was smoking a cigarette! What kid smokes in front of their parents' house waiting for the school bus?! Aren't they afraid of getting caught? Then meeting the roomie for dinner, there was this teen girl and her little sisters wandering the middle of the street as I was driving out of the neighborhood. She was supposed to be watching them, but she was too busy on her frickin' cell to pay attention! Its like, there are cars on the road, they could get hit!
At least, I assume she was their teen sister. I suppose she could be a really young looking mother. You know how I suck with ages. It reminded me of the time when me brudder![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sparkyboy first started high school. Well, there was a books and supplies buying event before the actual school year started, and I went with him, since I wanted to see the old high school alma mater. And we were at his locker, and there was this girl a few lockers down. And she certainly didn't look 13 or 14 or however old a freshman is supposed to look (though I guess even my brother and the rest of their homeroom did think she look way older than she was). I guess compounding the confusion was because she was with this little kid. Now the kid didn't look old enough to be in HS, but she looked college age, so I assumed the little kid was my brother's classmate (I thought maybe the kid had that Webster disease or something) and like me, she was helping her younger sibling out. But then she comes up to me asking how the lockers worked and me and my brother learned they were the ones who were actually classmates.

Well, some people don't want to drive their "cool" car only on special occasions! I like performance cars that are actually also fine for everyday use.
