I beat the first boss of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (Team Ninja), and I think it was glitched for me. Why? Bceause, and needless to say, there will be spoilers for the first boss in this post. In yesterday,s post, I wrote about my quick impressions. Now I need to hash out my feelings about… Continue Reading
I’ve been hyped for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, a China-based Nioh by Team Ninja ever since I saw the first trailer/article for it. Ian has been playing it ahead of time and giving me his general impressions of it. I saw videos of the demo and was cautiously hyped. It looks very Team Ninja, both… Continue Reading
I read some advice columns and I know better than to read the commentariat (usually). But I can’t resist from time to time over at Slate bcause I want to see what, ah, the masses believe. Slate is a lef-leaning website with reasonably intelligent readers. Still. I find myself going, “WTF are you talking about?”… Continue Reading
I’ve done several posts about what it would take to get me off my couch and actually date/fuck someone. The last post derailed hard into ‘dysfunctional family’ territory, but I’m not sorry about that. Family is important. Not in a ‘but faaaaamily!’ way, but because the scars you collect in your childhood can carry out… Continue Reading
In my last post, I continued telling you who I am. I’m going to go on even further. Let’s just jump right in. 10. My family is deeply dysfunctional. You will not meet my family. Well, rather, you will not meet my parents. You might get to meet my brother, but that’s it. I can only deal… Continue Reading
In my last post, I started a list of who I am. In this point, I am going to continue with what you need to know about me if you want to get with me. I’m old. I’m set in my ways. I am not going to make any major changes soon. So. Let’s continue… Continue Reading
In the last two posts, I have writtena about what I am loooking for in a partner. That is all fine and dandy, but there’s a more important list I need to share–who I am. This is me; I’m not going to change. I may fiddle at the edges and smooth out some of the… Continue Reading
I started a list in my last post about the things I’m looking for in a partner. My first need today seems in direct contract to one of the things I said I needed yesterday. Let’s get on with it. 4. Not too much of an empath. One of the weird things on the RKG… Continue Reading
There is a common trope that if you have a list of characteristics you look for in a partner, you’ll fall for someone who is the exact opposite. There is some validity to it, but that’s more about not being aware of your flaws and the dysfunctions of your family. If you don’t understand how… Continue Reading
Back in the mid-’90s, on Mad TV (a sketch show, like SNL), there was a series of skits called Lowered Expectations. It was a parody of dating ads, and–wow. I rewatched a bunch of them. It’s not as funny as I thought it was at the time. In fact, it’s pretty terrible. Which is too… Continue Reading
