Suggestions?

To start, I would like to thank Nick for illustrating how frustrated he gets when he doesn't get as much gold as he wanted for the arrows he spent 38 straight hours fabricating and assembling. I mean "hell!" these arrows add +4 to your nerd factor, surely 50 gp isn't too much to ask for!


Last week, I was given a suggestion as to what to write about, and I think it turned out pretty funny. So, I wanna take some more ideas for me to rant or comment on.


Not too much this time around, as I am tired from a long day of helping my father get ready to move to VA. Just want to voice MY frustration towards Comcast, for fucking with the Anime Selects portion of their onDemand programming. As many of you may already know, I am...or WAS rather...invested in a number of various anime programs. Alas, comcast decided to revamp the playlists with dumb-ass names like seishun, wasabi, and mad sushi. I don't even know what that crap stands for. It used to be action, comedy, drama, and fantasy...which was cut n' dry. Anyway, the real issue is this: THEY RESTARTED ALL THE EXISTING SERIES AT EPISODE 1!!!!! So, after all the time I spent watching these shows every week was allin vain. Because now I have to wait for weeks and weeks for it to return to the episodes that I was on. To put it in the immortal words of Steve Carell, "blugggebrrrugghhnnnghhhbblllaahh----nnnnn-kkaakaapoopoo."

I think its a little unfair to give Nick "nerd points" for his MMORPG-ing, then complain about the anime lineup on COMCAST. I hope a hurricane hits you too....

I never said I wasn't a nerd. But for the record, I'm not...I'm a dork, there's a difference. At any rate, take this in...I know it might be too much to handle, but I'll do my best.

As most of you know, many games are based on levels or "rank". As such we can relate the gaming experience which Nick is so fond of, to real life experience. That being said, I believe it is a fair comparison to state that doing nerdy things can add to your "nerd factor" or your nerd level, or even nerd rank...you get my point, I hope. Now, if you truly think that my complaining about a change in schedule for shows that I was watching warrants any more nerdiness than watching the shows themselves, then fine...you're wrong, but I can't argue the point. Otherwise...put a sock in it!

You can't make arrows in WOW.

I know I can't...because I don't play.
