As we end Christmas, if you haven't already, please consider the families who may have been having a rather tragic Christmas. Such as victims of recent shootings, families with soldiers who died in battle, family members who died of old age and family members who died of some kind of disease or injury. Please, if you haven't already, spend a moment of your time to think of them and if one of your neighbors recently lost someone; invite them over for New Years or something. Just to show them you care and you want them to be happy.
That being said/typed, I myself end Christmas 2012 with the Hey Arnold Christmas special, which makes me feel feels that make me cry.
I haven't gotten all of my gifts yet and I have yet to give out all of my gifts so I guess technically, Christmas isn't over for me.
But the gifts I got from parents, I feel really happy with. Usually when I put stuff on my list it's just "Whatever, here's some stuff I always want." I love how my parents get me gifts that aren't on my list, but show a deep understand of who I am, what I love. Personal gifts, things I will truly enjoy more than just a game I traded to Gamestop half a decade ago and can't find whenever I try to. I really hope they liked my gifts to them, and I hope that a certain someone loves the gifts I gave to her just as I know  sefhighwind loves the gifts I gave to him. Welcome to California, buddy. I kind of don't want Christmas to end, if only for the tv specials, the beautiful decorations, and the merriness in my family's faces. It's something I look forward to every year. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hannukah (even though it ended a tad earlier), Happy Holidays and I hope that the happiness continues. For everyone who celebrates Kwanza, that starts today if I'm not mistaken. So I hope you all have a happy Kwanza. Today is... Umoja I believe? I'm sorry, I'm terrible with names. Even relatives' names I forget.
But I am babbling on.
To everyone who celebrates it, I hope you had a Merry Christmas.

The only good thing to come out of the gun control debate is the hilarity of gun-owners over-reacting and trying to make some kind of outrageous counter-argument so they can keep their guns. Something along the lines of: "Why don't you take away plastic forks and knives, and paper plates!"
Personally, debating gun control after a shooting should not be our focus. America, stop acting like a bunch of goddamn babies. I really do sincerely think that in place of all these debates on gun control and all these "IN DEEP COVER STORIES ON THE KILLER" you should do small reports discussing the people from the shooting who may not have made the shooting a victimless tragedy, but still saved lives. Not just the people who died in the Connecticut shooting, people who died in all the recent massacres in the world. I'm sure America wouldn't cover any country other than itself, but hey. It's a start.
This country's lack of values disturbs me. I don't mean the whole "Husband, Wife, Two kids!" values, I just mean... Treat people right. That value have never been 100% true. Attacking people for their sexuality, their gender, their religion, their race. Seriously? What makes it better is when people try to justify their reasons for attacking a religion, they generally mention some fanatic group. Even atheist haters (which you could say is funny because atheists have no religion) cite atheist extremists to justify their attacks. I don't even have to discuss the issues with race and sexuality, do I?
People in positions of "power" can't even get along to fix the country. A country filled with so many different views and people, in the end, only has two political parties. That has never made sense to me. I pity the Republicans my age who will more than likely grow up to be stereotyped as the crazy Conservatives that are ruining the party now.
I understand that most people wouldn't want to be reminded of death and things like this, because that'd be really annoying and blah blah blaaaah. You'd rather watch a little jar of mannoyaise participate in kid's beauty pageants, watch crazy mothers use their kids as a scapegoat for some kind of fame, some journalist give you the details of what such and such is wearing, or watch that talk show with that one comedian who has that one celebrity you love on their show. You like what you like, and that's fine. But please, and this is going back to the first and second paragraph, tell me when it will be enough. When will you stop debating about nothing, and reporting nothing?

I will accept any and all viewpoints in response to my post.

So if you've been looking at my journals for a long time (Not sure why) some relatives reared their ugly heads back into my house.
http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3045688/ <Was my last encounter with them, seriously. Not even at family reunions do I see them.

So, as a way to get me out of the house and away from them, my mother asks them what they want from Jack in the Box. I don't mean to stereotype, but most of these relatives are quite large and eat heaping amounts of food. Especially the adults. So I took my mom's car and drove to Jack in the Box and ordered all the food off the list. Basically, about 40 combo meals. No exaggeration. Of course, it'd be 40 if I included my sister's and my own combo meal. I had to convince the people at Jack in the Box that I am ordering all of this. It was totally embarrassing seeing all the workers look at each other like that. Mostly because I was confused why they were all looking so confused. Technically they give out more combos than that, but now it's one customer so therefore it's creepy?

Anyways, I'm in my mom's car and she calls me. Being a good person I pull over and answer, and she tells me cousin Charlie Ray doesn't want Jack in the Box anymore, he wants Hardy's. He doesn't want Carl's Jr., he wants Hardy's. They're the same fucking thing basically. So I just drive through Carl's Jr., gritting my teeth and then cousin Jackie wants Carl's Jr. now and Charlie Ray is mad I am not getting him Hardy's. I am now their food delivery boy? Seriously? Just gotta keep on answering the phone and getting food, eventually getting to the point the passenger's seat is literally a pile of bags with fast food logos on them, and the back nothing but beverages in cup holders. I got one more call saying now Great Uncle Roy doesn't want any food, and some other relatives are getting maaaad because I'm taking too long. Getting tired of it I just told my mom that I'm done. Especially since the only thing I heard from them is that the shooting that occurred today is the school's fault because they don't have God in the school. You know what I did to their food?

I LEFT IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET IN THE RAIN.

"So it looks like I will have an open room coming up soon at my apartment. I need to know if anyone would be interested in moving in with me up in Glendale. Rent varries between 545 to 565 a month, and there is also internet, power, and gas bills to be concidered as well. Nothing is final yet, but if anyone is interested please let me know so I can start having back up plans. Now if you will excuse me, I feel like drinking heavily right now."

No, they're fighting Batman.
Even if he's having some kind of amnesia...
Also.
I FUCKING LOVE WHEN IT'S REVEALED THAT JONAH HEX DRESSED UP AS BATMAN!

So....
Who knew that this kid is Ultimate Universe's Spider-Man?
Who knew he and main universe Peter met and it was awesome?
Who knew he has different powers than Peter?

Personally, I've been reading Spiderman for years. I've even watched pretty much every television incarnation he has. I am Peter Parker'd out. In the main Universe he hasn't had any real growth, and the Ultimate Universe made him so whiny. Just... SOOOO whiny. So when Miles was introduced, I wanted him to be the original Spiderman of his Universe. I like Miles, I really do. He's a lot like Peter is, but written a bit more light-hearted, and that makes Spidey come across easier. I like his powers, and I like how he knows he has a predecessor and tries to learn that predecessor's moves and all the things they did.

My biggest issue with Miles?
This isn't even him. It's more the writers not wanting to stop reminding you of Peter. Sometimes, it's acceptable. For example, in a certain Ultimate Spiderman issue, Captain America discusses his issues with Miles being so young and being a hero. Aunt May outright says she knows that Captain America is just saying that because he blames himself for Peter's death, and he never got the chance to say that to Peter himself. That's fine. But then there are times where clearly it's.... Miles is just being Peter's fill-in. No offense, but unless Miles is living with Aunt May and Gwen, I don't see why they have to keep popping up. Or MJ. Kick 'em out. Miles has friends, too. Seriously. It's like the main universe Iron Fist after Orson died. Danny did nothing but flash backs.
COME ON.

So recently I've been upsetting a lot of people on multiple internet sites.

I feel bad.

Not in the sense of: Oh wow, I made that person pissed.

I just don't care. I don't find it that important, and while I understand some people are more sensitive to words than I am... I just really, really, really don't care. I feel bad for not caring.

Yeah man, I tell ya what, man, that dang ol’ internet, man, you just go in on there and point and click, talk about w-w-dot-w-com, mean you got the naked chicks on there, man, just go click, click, click, click, click, it’s real easy, man.

So apparently the only credit card I have has spent 3 grand yesterday on:
A ps3, a vita, an Ipad, an Iphone 5, and at least a dozen games for both the Sony systems.
So I called the places the card was used and asked them to describe the person who used my card, having a hunch it was a certain someone. Thank you, Gamestop employee who doesn't ask for photo ID when someone uses a credit card. You seriously have a job in retail?
Anyways, turns out that the description fit a certain ex-friend of mine who only stopped being my friend because I wouldn't smoke weed with him. I didn't hold it against him that he smoked it, I just didn't want to. For years after he started, whenever he came back from Boston he avoided me because I didn't smoke or drink. http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3273986/ <A description of the friend in question.
So I call him and he answers:
"Hey man. What're you up to? I'm down to smoke now."
"Oh, really?! Well, I'm just playing Mass Effect on my PS3."
"I thought you sold your ps3 for pot and to help pay for Boston."
"Oh yeah, but I got it at Gamestop yesterday. I just made a huge deal!"
"Did you get it at the Del Amo Mall?"
"Yeah!"
"12:40 p.m.?"
"Uh... I think so."
"You know, dude. Someone used my credit card to buy a ps3 and a vita at that exact same time and the employee described them, and it sounded like someone who looked like you."
"Uh...."
"Did you use my credit card? Seriously? Is this because you're mad at me for not smoking or drinking with you?"
"Yeah man, and I'm kinda tight on money ri-"
"So you stole my credit card?!"
He hung up.
Welp.
Gotta think of how to get him back.
-UPDATE-
With numerous fast food bombings, telling his grandmother who is now apparently crying frantically, calling some police officer friends of mine to go and screw around with him, and him crying and telling me not to do press charges, I feel pretty good.
Still not enough.

FROM BOTH SIDES! ONE NAMED SERELLA AND ONE NAMED SAM! THEY'RE ATTACKING ME WITH LOVE AND AFFECTION!


I NEED BACK UP!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgYxydrVlDk
AWESOME.

So on Wednesday, I had coolwhiprenegade and sef_highwind come over and spend the night. They came, tried to fap to me and failed miserably because I didn't let them finish. We ate sushi, then got peanut butter ice cream tacos, went back to my room and played a bunch of video games. Once Sef broke out his Wii, CoolWhip looked ready to doze. He then showed us this show called Eastbound and Down, and-
I'M KENNY POWERS, AND I THROW FAST AS FUCK.

We went to sleep. Woke up, took CoolWhip to his job, then I checked out Sef's place. It had lots of boxes, and his bed and his roomies' were on the floor. With their televisions right in front of them. Smart men, these two. I wanna do that. Sef had awesome Sonic plushies. Sef's roomie wanted to make HAMBURGERS :P. So while waiting for other people to come, we played Persona 4 Arena, and I feel kind of bad because I beat them both... Somewhat easily... I really tried not to spoil KH3DS for Sef. All of Sef's friends were people I enjoyed being around, but I still miss Kaiza. HE'S MY BESTEST FRAND.
MY BESTEST. No, but seriously, I wish he was down here. Even Sef agrees, we'd get along great.
And if Sef says it, it must be true. He should make his own advice column for a newspaper.

I enjoy talking with Sef and CoolWhip. Sef and I get along almost too well....
WE'RE BROTHERS. :O

Also, they love my dog, Samuel Jackson. While they both petted him and such, Samuel Jackson was all:
I'M TIRED OF THESE MOTHA-YIFF-ING FURRIES ON MY BED.
Because they both found his bed really comfy.
Yes, Sef.

Forget your matress, go to petco and buy the biggest dog bed you can find.
Just don't tell the employee you're using it.

I just spent the last five hours hanging out with Sef and CoolHwip.
Was it awesome?
HELL YES.
We saw The Watch then ate at this fun diner. They were both soooooo cool. :O
I AM NOT WORTHY.

So first Sef and I drove around, chatting about nothing. I screwed up by being a little late, then scraping the bottom of his car door. v.v
Then we met up with CoolHwipRenegade, who took us on a long drive of funny shenananananananananagins to see The Watch at a really pretty movie theater.
The Watch was basically this year's funniest R-rated comedy. Although I wasn't big fans of them, you could say it was this year's Forty-Year-Old Virgin and Superbad.
Although I have to say a few things....
Jonah Hill is doomed because no matter how much weight he loses, he still has a fat face.
Vince Vaughn apparently got lots of sleep between this and The Dillemma.
Richard Aoyode, what race are you?
Ben Stiller, man. Your Bioware-Character-Creation-Esque face disturbs me.

During the movie I got the guys some sour patch watermelons it turns out the didn't want so during the movie I just went:
That was so much fun last night.
Me: "Hey, you want these sourpatch watermelons?"
Random BITCH: "No."
Me: "Hey, you want these sour patch watermelons?"
Some teenage girl: "No, thank you."
Me: "WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE WANT THESE?"

The moviegoers, including myself, were having fun with the movie. Although I feel like if it does horribly at the box office, Ben Stiller and maybe Jonah Hill would blame it on the DARK KNIGHT RISES.
After the movie we went to a really nostalgia-50's esque diner that had some great food. Too bad Sef got a tummy-ache. :c
There was this one group of kids, though, man...
They looked like they popped OUT of the goddamn fifties to eat here. It was scary. They came to sock and hop.
On the way back to Sef's car, we dealt with three crazy chick drivers.
Chick Driver one: Left her blinker on the whole damn time.
Chick Driver two: TEXTING. HNNNNGH DUMB BI-
Chick Driver three: She just looked pissed behind the wheel.
It was so much fun, the whole night.
I really hope the so-cal furs treat Sef right. :c
And CoolHwi-
YOUKNOWWHUTIMEAN.

Why the fuck am I supposed to care about some old bitch named Ya-Ya's opinion about how I live my life? Dumb old bitch likes some nasty ass food. Fuck her, and fuck anyone who dares to even consider her opinion as important.

Also, this motherfucker has been ruling my life for years. I hate him so much. He is always telling me what to do, what not to do, fiddling with my electronics. Whenever I'm having fun-BAM! There he is. Off to babble about who knows what. WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT?! FUCK YOU, I DO WHAT I WANT.
Motherfucking Professor Oak dick-riding me all the fucking time. DAMN!

Well, I guess it's really over when I get the last gift. Does that sound selfish?
Because if that IS true, my birthday won't end until August 21st, when I get all 24 volumes of Steel Ball Run. The best manga I have ever read.
EVER.

So in 2 hours and 40 minutes, it is my 21st birthday.
I am not going to celebrate by drinking. I am serious, and you furs "lucky" enough to know me on a somewhat personal level know I DO NOT LIKE ALCOHOL, OR THE IDEA OF DRINKING IT.
Anyways, I'm worried about my sister's tastes in television, HONEY BOO BOO. I hope that's a hint to the kind of crap she watches. She even wants to watch the show for MISS HONEY BOO BOO. Ugh....
Anyways, I'm surprised I'm turning another year older and that the lovely TEH NOM NOMS is there with me. To give me snuggles and to... JUGGLE..... CHAINSAWS. Or not....
Sorry for the lack of updates on my stories, the laptop is out at the competent BEST BUY and I am borrowing my mother's laptop to make this update.
New chapters are in front of me, physically, on paper. If I could, I'd flail my flippers at the paper and have them poof onto the computer.
But oh well.
I'm happy having them written out in front of me, it means I actually have done them, and I'm not getting lazy. Although I guess compared to all the Free Birds chapters I've written, which is in the hundreds, all the stories I post on here seem to be.... Lazy in terms of chapter amount. I don't post Free Birds on here because I want it to be published, and I want to try and... Keep it outta the limelight. Character bios are cool, but actual chapters are a no-no, sorry!
Because of best buy's amazing level of competence (for cereals, gaiz, it's almost freaky how fast they are fixing my laptop), the movie pawcast is on hold, sadly. But for that pawcast I want to discuss movies in theaters, movies that are coming out to DVD (you know, things I missed either due to not starting this thing on time or due to Best Buy's competence). I am also waiting for my buddy, SefHighWind to get his fluffy buttox over here. So we can discuss movies better. Although I don't think he has the same crazy looks on movies I do.
I burned through Jonah Hill's show, Allen Gregory. It got cancelled. I can see why, it was awful~<3

I find it funny that apparently most of the people who first eat the steaks are eating near the anus.

So if you've been watching GF's Pawcasts, you'll see that every so often, right after one main pawcast we start one up discussing movies.
This post is a shout-out to all you GF users.
I want to make these movie pawcasts a weekly thing, or a bi-weekly thing where we discuss movies that have come out recently.
Please post below if you're interested, telling me the recent films you've seen also, so if we're lucky enough to get this started by next week, we can start with some relatively new films.
The requirements for joining these pawcasts are not difficult, and are quite easy. They are:
1. Become a member of gaming furever, and post a hello (if you haven't already.)
2. Have contributed at least once to this thread: http://www.gamingfurever.com/index......amp;Itemid=158
3. See movies somewhat often. We will usually be discussing modern movies, unless we refer to past films in a series.
4. We will keep this cast ever changing, so please do not be offended if you aren't able to participate. It is because we want to have a variety of mindsets available.
5. Please, be open-minded to other people's movie pleasures. For example, if someone likes Madea that is in the pawcast with you, don't insult them.

So this year was eventful. I got a ride from a guy I've never met prior to driving with him to AX, cosplayed, and stayed at AX until very late.

=Day 1 (June 29): I cosplayed as Chuck Greene (from DR2) in his Shaun of the Dead gear, but I did add variety to it throughout the day, and had to keep going to the bathroom to re-gel my hair. After awhile, one sleeve didn't want to stay rolled up, so I had one sleeve up and one down, and just decided to be Psychopath Chuck (DR2:OTR) in Shaun of the Dead gear. Some people got that I was Chuck Greene (possibly because I look like him but younger) even when I was Psycho Chuck (because when I became Psycho Chuck, I spent some time running up to people going "Have you seen my daughter Katey?! I need to find her, and then find some Zombrex.") But a lot of people thought I was Shaun from Shaun of the Dead, which made me happy even if they were wrong. I went to a panel discussing the origin of the anime fandom, which was actually really fun and lead by one of the staff members on this site: http://www.starblazers.com/home.php. I then decided to do something I never would have if I wasn't trying to save money by avoiding the Dealer's Hall: Watch the Funimation dub of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt.
-Let me be honest with you, I've not watched the original version of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, at least not past episode 1. So I can't say whether or not "THE DUB COMPLETELY CHANGED EVERYTHING! HOW DARE THEY!" but I think Funimation does a good job of keeping the emotion that the original voice actors had in Japanese, and I feel like they did that in this dub. They swore a lot, but (I'm subscribed to Funimation's yt channel) Funimation was apparently told by the company that made PaSwG to swear as much as possible without getting in trouble. From what I saw of the anime, it's clearly a comedy-focused series, so Funimation did a great job because people were laughing and flailing and whewting. The loudest "whewt" was when Panty saw Brief's underwear turn into a shotgun. So if you like Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, you CAN watch the first two episodes dubbed for free on Funimation's website, and if you like what you see buy the dvd. But it was so awkward because I just plopped down in line first, and all the people behind me were spazzing out and I didn't know anything they were talking about. After that I went to watch the Persona: Trinity Soul anime. It's very confusing in the first few episodes, it doesn't really tie into any of the other series except for Persona 3, because Akihiko Sanada appears in it later (I didn't see him appear.) So if you like Persona enough to watch anime of it that has little to do with the main series, then look for sub episodes on youtube or something. Oh, the showing was sub only. FUN FIRST DAY. Only took me half an hour to get my badge.
-At the con, they had Ni no Kuni for the PS3, One Piece Kaizoku Musou, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations and DBZ for the Kinect. The Kinect game looked so stupid... So I didn't try it, but I tried Ni no Kuni and I found it pretty fun. :D
I was trying to not have a spazz attack because the day before my dad threw a temper tantrum and aimed it at me.

=Day 2 (June 30): Wore the Chuck/Shaun outfit again, it wasn't stinky and I didn't sweat in it because I wore a shirt under it. Today I took pictures of good cosplays, wandered around the Dealer's Hall like an idiot looking for LittleKuriboh and Egoraptor's booths, didn't find them, and it was getting close to the furmeetup in AX in the Concourse Hall. So I just shrugged and went to the Hall and tried to mingle. I was very awkward around people because I didn't know ANYONE besides my ride and three people on facebook. So I probably bugged them all, and I'm very sorry about that. After that I just kind of hung around with some of the furries until they had to leave, then just sat in a room watching the first few episodes of the Shin-Chan dub until my ride wanted to leave. So many furries in Cali I don't even know. Oh, and I saw a Sonic guy. I wonder if he could see in his costume (it was a fursuit in the style of Cartoon Sonic). The X Games came and messed up everyone's parking.
-I tried the Naruto game today. It suffers a lot from an issue you can say DBZ: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 had, with too many characters, it seems really hard to make the game look all that great. It seems weird they pick certain people as support characters, and the whole game seems well.... From what I played, passive people like Kurenai still had to go toe to toe with people. They should put a bigger effort in the engine and not make it a beat down.
-I also got a Shonen Jump bag today, and was sad because the Viz (people who translate SJ's manga for America) weren't even considering translating Steel Ball Run. I'm not going to pay 26 bucks to subscribe for a year for manga I can buy physical copies of. It also bugged me that the guy's biggest selling point is that you can now read manga on your Ipad and zoom in. It's just one of those things with technology that makes you go "But I can do that myself (and in this case) with an actual book and my eyes...." It might've hurt the guy's pitch because he used Bleach as an example, which I am really not a fan of, or the fact that they're only TWO WEEKS BEHIND JAPAN. Great. You're two weeks behind on SJ's big bread-winners, but 30 volumes behind on Detective Conan, stopped translating Ultimate Muscle, and never did any other JoJo Parts besides Stardust? I'm not too interested. Today I tried the Naruto game. I feel like Naruto is shooting itself in the foot with the big character roster and some characters as support characters.
-I worked at a booth selling manga and dvds. The boss was rude, and is from like, Virginia. He did say he'd hire me again if I was at Comic Con. LOLNOTTHISYEAR.

=Inbetween these two days, I saw the most recent Madea movie at midnight. Eugene Levy, I'm so sorry. I thought you would be funny, and Tyler Perry ruined your chances.

=Day 3 (July 1): So the Chuck/Shaun costume was sweaty now, and I decided not to wear it because I didn't want to wash it. I wasn't sure if the fake blood would turn pink or not, and didn't want to take the chance. I hung around with some of the furries I met yesterday, and met some of their friends. I finally found Egoraptor's booth, got him to sign the first page of a new notebook, and took a picture with him. I also bought a Persona 4 poster, some manga, and bought a fellow fur some food. I went out to the foodtrucks outside the convention center for lunch, and for some reason religious protestors were there. The only with any kind of megaphone was right next to the X Games' race track, which wasn't very smart of her/him, because the cars would roar their engines and they'd become inaudible. Then again, who wants to hear them talk? I just shouted "NICE COSPLAY!" At them and got everyone around me to laugh. What? I thought it was a costume.
-I FOUND EGORAPTOR AND LITTLEKURIBOH'S BOOTH!
-I got Egoraptor to sign my notebook and take a photo with me, and then apologized for him being on the Tester. He wasn't sorry. Good.
-So when I got into the Dealer's Hall, I saw an open spot for the One Piece game. I played it, as Sanji going through the Arlong arc. Wow, they put a lot of time and consideration into this, making it a unique experience for a video game, but it still seemed like a fight that fits the manga/anime, and that's what I look for in a game for an anime/manga series. I let a little kid go, saw no one else waiting and tried Zoro, and he was fun, but I think Sanji is more my style. Although I'm not perverted like him.
-While I was playing (or waiting to play) I saw a BUNCH OF PEOPLE try the DBZ Kinect game, and they looked hilarious as some guy with dreads taught them. When they were done, whether they won or lost, he then interviewed them on their experience. One person who was playing was dressed up as a Kid Gohan and they had FUN. They were playing as Kid Gohan, so I can understand having fun on that aspect, but the game has a flaw by being on the Kinect, and really just DBZ: Ultimate Tenkaichi in a FPS view but the characters of DBZ don't need guns, they just need their arms and legs. Oh lawd, I'd be surprised if this Kinect game sold at all.
-I saw the dub of Black Butler, and holy crap, people squealed every time a new (main) character was introduced, or something remotely fanservicely sexual, or romantic happened. When the main butler, Sebastian, appeared, the audience pretty much did THE WAVE as they were cheering. Obviously, the room packed up very quickly. I only got to see the first four episodes, and waited in a long line to see what the series is about. From what I saw, it seems like a series that is a bunch of random cases that don't really have an arc, like Case Closed/Detective Conan. The only real complaint I have about the series is that it seems too easy for the protagonist to beat the bad guy. Of course, this is the first four episodes, but it seemed more like the role of ALMIGHTY VILLAIN should go to our leads, not the random villains.
-I also did some amateur voice acting for a Bang! Zoom! panel. I wanted to go to Hetalia's panel but it was full, and so was Kyle Hebert's, and I just wound up in this panel where they were letting con-goers do voice acting. I did the voice of this guy named Kamina from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, which I haven't followed a lot of. So I would see the line in Japanese, see the passion and pauses and what-not, then get the scene played back muted, hear three beeps then talk on the fourth one. The guy said I did a good job picturing the passion behind the character and asked if I was a fan, which I said I wasn't. :c At least, not yet. :D

Day 4 (July 2): Last Day! ;_; I was trying not to cry as I walked around the convention center. I was dressed in my recently made Johnny Joestar cosplay, and six different people recognized me and took my picture! :D
-I was making last purchases, to make this con last. I got an Egoraptor Megaman X poster (of X and Spark Mandrill, signed by Ego himself) and then asked Ego to sign my Megaman X: Maverick Hunter game, which we both agreed was "Okay." He's a cool guy, the girl in line to get him to sign shit before me had Ego call her boyfriend. LAWL, I could hear the guy go "OH MY GAAAAWD!" and squeal like a fangirl.
-I got some manga, mostly catching up with my favorite series, and I waited to do it today for the deals.
-Got LittleKuriboh to sign my Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist vol. 4 (Bandit Keith's debut) and vol. 15 (The start of the Duel Yugi and Joey ,possessed by Marik, have that LK makes fun of by turning it into a friendship drinking game.) He and his wife are very nice, and LK felt it was an honor voicing Freiza and felt he had a lot of fun. I told him he's a great voice actor, and I think he seemed flattered. I honestly think he does good work.
-Went to a stand that literally had a pile of DBZ/DBGT action figures, looked for a Majuub. No luck, sadly. :c Strived on for my next purchase. Got a funny shirt instead.
-This may sound silly, but every year I wait until five minutes until the Dealer's Hall closes (3:00 pm on the last day) to make a purchase that will represent my experience with the con. Just manga if it was an okay experience, some video game if it was fun, and some art if it was great. I got a Persona 4 art poster, this con was so much fun.
-I tried the Kinect DBZ game. I stopped playing because I couldn't stop laughing at how lazy it is.
-So my ride wanted to stay until AX ends at 6-7 on this day. I went to go watch Full Metal Panic Fumoffu, and then got a text from him saying he wanted to leave because the gamer's room was closed.
-Although I wasn't a big fan of the guy giving me a ride, he seems like an okay guy, just really loud when I want to be quiet or want quiet, even in the night when I was running around the con and was exhausted on the previous days. But that's who he is, and I really doubt he'd change if I asked, so I didn't bother. It was only four days.
-I got a lot of business cards for companies to see if they're close to me. They are somewhat.

Don't expect folks to read this, but I'm posting it anyway.

This really has nothing to do with gaming, but it does have everything to do with the furry culture. This isn’t meant to be a baww moment, but instead a look into what makes us tick. To be fair, why do we strive to make others like us? Is it because we want to feel respected? To feel needed? Or is it just cause we want folks to know that we exist? Why is it that people strive to become a popufur? Is it the recognition? The status? The supposed enclosed group of people who you get to talk to? Why does it seem that every fur in existence strives to reach this goal? I’ve seen what becoming a popufur does to people, and in short I don’t ever wish to become that status. It changes them to the point where they forget their friends, and then they just go with the normal consensus. Yes there are some popufurs that I like, but in short the bunch changes folks that enter their domain.

I don’t know why I strive to be liked by others. It’s something that has always been a part of me for a while, and I hate it. I’ve changed my looks, my likes, and I’ve thrown away aspects of my life that I’m still digging back up. So why do I hurt myself so? It’s because I want folks to like me for my personality. But let’s face it. Folks are shallow as hell. Most people get along with people they meet at conventions, but the second they hit other’s FA page boom, they don’t ever want to see them or talk to them again. The reason? Because they find out a kink of that person, quickly attach the stereotype to them, and they forget all about the things that they liked about them. Why do we do this? Most people are afraid to attach themselves to most kinks because they are afraid that they will lose friends over it. The same idea applies to being friends with other folk who have kinks. If this is true, then I have one question. Why? Why would you let one kink cloud everything? Friends are the people who you trust, like, and even love. A true friend wouldn’t up and leave cause of one small thing like a kink, and folks will continue to be friends even if they are friends with kinky folk. Then again why do folks place these stereotypes on others? Because that kink has folks who go around flashing their kink for all to see.

If you are the type of person who goes around flashing and flaunting their kinks to whoever they see, then please read this. Stop it. Now I don’t mean stop posting artwork on your FA, no; I mean stop flashing it around in real life or force it down folks throat on messaging software. Yes I know your mindset. You don’t give a fuck who knows and you don’t give a fuck about other’s opinion. You just do it cause you can and you want the world to know about it. While it’s nice that you have embraced what makes you, well you, you shouldn’t go parading around. All this does is prove to others that your kink does this all the time. There are those in the kink you are part of that only express their kink in the bedroom, or at designated areas at cons and stuff. However, all people hear about are the folks who run out into life and show off everything. And folks wonder why people never talk to them because they find out that you are into heavy S&M or you’re a babyfur. It’s because there are others in your kink class that are making what you like into a public scene.

However people need to realize this, not everyone is like that. There are others, like myself, who keep our kink only to our bedroom, our FA page, and ourselves. And even if there are things that we do outside of our homes, then we are being ourselves at get-togethers and parties that are for our kink.

I don’t know what cause me to want to write this, but I’m getting tired of folks acting like jackasses, and they never see the full picture. Take from this what you want, but I hope I’ve at least opened your eyes and thoughts.

So Bieber compared himself to Kurt Cobain, right?
Grunge and other rock genres popped up to take out glam metal when it was an infestation on metal, am I wrong?
So if Bieber REALLY considers himself to be Cobain, who is the glam metal artists he felt the need to "take out"?
Jonas Brothers?

Time to let you all know what I'm doing. I'm doing the "Horny Psycho Frank" run of the original Dead Rising. The rules are:
1. You must find at least 50 survivors (not counting those you can rescue after defeating a psychopath.)
2. You only save those who you, the player, deem to be physically attractive. Everyone else, you kill.
3. Janet Star is the only exception, you must save her regardless.
4. If Janet dies or you don't kill a survivor you don't deem attractive as soon as you can, you must start a completely new game.
5. If you have the Pro Wrestling Gear, you must wear only that.
6. Always confront and kill any nearby True Eye, if you get captured, start a brand new game.
7. Kent Swanson, when you first meet him, is considered a survivor you can spare depending on whether or not you find him attractive. If not, kill him.
8. Get to the following stores before the respective psychopaths show up: Crislip's Home Saloon, Huntin' Shack, and Seon's Food & Stuff.
9. You can only blend wine and wine.
