New Mouse

Posted in Uncategorized on June 17, 2008 by everestwu

Yes, yes, I’m a geek.  I had to buy this mouse though!  It was $50 at Best Buy, but only $40 at Newegg.com (and free shipping, no tax).

I’ve never actually bought anything specifically for gaming before, so I’m fairly excited.  The extra buttons will come in handy.

So far, it feels pretty good: I used it at my friend’s place whenever I played Fury a few months ago.

Me likey.

Phone Cards Hurt

Posted in Rant on June 16, 2008 by everestwu

So I just bought a 500 minute phone card from AT&T.  You’d think if I called international, I would get maybe half that, right?

Nope, I get 38 minutes of international with it.

Such fucking bullshit.

You Don’t Mess With the Zohan

If you’re a fan of Adam Sandler, then you should know what to expect with this movie. How he’s so goofy, yet badass at the same time in this movie is beyond me.  They don’t even try to make anything seem realistic, which was a good choice, because this type of movie really doesn’t need it.

There’s a hot girl, great comedic timing, witty dialogue, and a special celebrity appearance that’s actually not tacky. The movie is chock full of running gags, stereotype jokes, and some really bad moments where you want to shut your eyes from the grossness, but not all-the-way closed because you kind of want to see what’s on the screen just because you’re slightly masochistic. Yeah, it’s one of those.

I give it an 8/10. I’d definitely recommend seeing it; it’s a great filler movie for you to tide yourself over until The Dark Knight comes out…*drools*

Getting Change

Posted in Rant with tags , , , on June 12, 2008 by everestwu

One thing that I’ve never understood is why in the world cashiers hand you your receipt before handing you the change. Instead of making life easy and handing you the coins first, where they can rest snuggly in the palms of your hands, these people decide to test you with the mini-game of “Balance Shit on a Piece of Paper”.

I can’t possibly be the only one irritated by this. It’s like they purposefully put the coins on top of the receipt just to watch you squirm and try to keep everything in your hand from falling off. Heaven forbid these people show some common sense and make things easier for the customer.

But there’s also the chance that it’s these companies that are training the cashiers to do this. Once again, I’ve no idea why. So I’ve come to the highly logical conclusion:

Fuck the government.

Don’t know if any of you watched Dennis completely destroy Bush with 35 articles of impeachment. I’m trying to see if I can grab a video of it somewhere, but above is a link to a brief description of it.

It’s…so…hot…

It’s been upwards of 90 degrees lately, and I am dying from this heat. I can barely take two steps outside without taking a salty shower. My A/C is starting to ask for overtime pay. Every time I get into my car, it feels like a tiny oven meant to bake Chinese food, namely me. I wish there was a swimming pool nearby. Oh wait, there is…Bye!

100 Ways to Draw Manga Eyes

This is a really cool video. I never got into the whole drawing thing, but I can still appreciate the level of talent needed for this.

This video is definitely a 5/5.  A++ would buy from again!

Kill-Death Ratio

Posted in About Me with tags , on June 6, 2008 by everestwu

So you’ll have to forgive me for not posting recently. Age of Conan is just really fun.

The game keeps track of how many people you kill and how many times you die from other players. My ratio is 385-12 at the time of this message.

I’ve been busy.

Baby Momma

Saw this movie last night, and it wasn’t too bad.  Story goes like this: High-class business woman wants child, woman is infertile, hires surrogate mother, hilarity ensues.

There’s definitely a lot of cute moments in the movie, and I wouldn’t really label it as a chick flick, but it’s very close.  If you’re thinking of dragging your boyfriend/husband to the theatres, they probably wouldn’t mind watching it, and there’s lots of comic relief from the token black guy too.

7/10.  Nothing special, but a good movie anyways.
