I'm just an awkward and sarcastic guy who enjoys shows, graphic design, photography/ videography, reading and writing.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Reading an incredibly moving book and seeing reviews that deride it because the reader “just didn’t get it” or “it didn’t live up to the hype” makes me so frustrated.

The awkward moment of running into a cute girl I had a huge crush on two years ago and having all of those feelings come back in an instant.

the-animation-alchemist: People need to give Wii Fit Trainer a break. “PEOPLE ARE EXCITED BECAUSE SHE’S A GIRL?!?!? BUT THERE’S ALREADY GIRLS IN BRAWL YOU FEMINISTS NEED TO CALM DOWN. THAT SLOT COULD HAVE GONE TO A BETTER CHARACTER!” First off, reactions like that alone warrant her introduction into the series. The game has been heavily male-centric since the beginning, so having a new female character is pretty cool (even though the other two introduced characters are males, but hey, she’s still awesome). Another female in the game won’t hurt anyone, and additionally, it further adds to Smash Bros.’ message of “hey, women can kick ass too.”  “SHE’S FAT-SHAMING!” Get down from your ivory tower and calm down. She’s a physical trainer. It’s her job to help people stay in shape, or get in shape if they aren’t. She helps people live healthy, active lives, and there is NOTHING wrong with that. She’s from a game that is literally a fitness program and to be mad at her for that is like being mad at Sonic for going fast. It’s what she does. Leave her be. She is doing nothing wrong. “SHE’S WHITEWASHING AT ITS FINEST!” She isn’t a race. She’s literally white. She’s a digital personification of the Wii. Which is white. Calm. Down. going back to “THAT SLOT COULD HAVE GONE TO A BETTER CHARACTER!” What’s considered a “better character” isn’t your choice to make. If I were in Nintendo’s shoes, however, I would’ve agreed that Wii Fit Trainer was a good choice for the roster, because she diversifies it and ventures out from the staple series that Nintendo had been using for past installments. Did we need a 7th character from the Mario Franchise? Another non-Nintendo character? ANOTHER new Pokemon? Please, I’d love to hear your creative ideas. Your “revolutionary” ideas for the roster.  I’d agree that she’s an unorthodox, but welcome addition that I’m warming up to. That said, I’m hoping with all my might that the next announced character is Lucina from Fire Emblem: Awakening, because she was my favorite character in that game and it might be nice to update the FE roster.

I’ve had my Animal Crossing New Leaf town for less than two hours, and my villagers keep giving me furniture because they like me, and they always add, “If you don’t like it, feel free to re-gift it, throw it out, or sell it-I won’t be offended!”

This game just gives me friendship feels.

I’m Like Very Science Episode 58 Mayor Harmon explains why an episode was lost; soon to be uncontextually quoted frivolity ensues. Jeff reveals he’s psychic; Kumail’s resultant bewilderment preempts D&D. Just wanted to add a HUGE Thank You to Dustin, as I know he’s insanely busy with running Feral and all of his other projects.

Episode 58

Mayor Harmon explains why an episode was lost; soon to be uncontextually quoted frivolity ensues. Jeff reveals he’s psychic; Kumail’s resultant bewilderment preempts D&D.

Just wanted to add a HUGE Thank You to Dustin, as I know he’s insanely busy with running Feral and all of his other projects.

That moment of feeling extraordinarily happy for a best friend, and then the suddenly sad, lonely jealousy that you’re not in as good of a stage of life as them.

Andrew and a mini Spider-Man on the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (May 26)

Made a promise to one of my best friends that I’d accompany him to the gym so he could properly teach me how to work out. Let’s just say that I’m already sore, and not looking forward to how my muscles will react tomorrow. Ow. That said, feeling pretty good otherwise :P
