On unexpectedly pertinent endings

Nose full of snuffles...
Lindy exchange made me sick.
Curse germy dancers!

Perhaps the worst though:
throat feels inhabited by
Velociraptors.

On the (further) decline of the gaming industry

What? Harvest Moon Cute?
How is it possible to
Make it MORE girly??

I get an email this morning with the weekly Nintendo DS news, and one of the featured games is the game above. Seriously. Harvest Moon CUTE – “because girls want farming, too!” WTF does that even MEAN? This is already a game predominantly played by girls – did you feel the need to make it particularly degrading or what?? Christ. Screw the gaming industry right in the face.

On Dumb TV

Reality shows -
I hate you SO much! So why
can't I look away?

Stupid TV. Stupid reality shows. Stupid Lisas being drawn in and staring transfixed at the screen while drooling copiously. I blame this on Mad Mad World, an old Sci-fi reality show that was basically "put a bunch of Normals in with a bunch of Alternate Lifestyle people and see what happens." It got me marginally amenable to the idea of reality TV and now I occasionally find myself unable to say no. Guh.

On left-turn arrows and interference

Oh, Pedestrian
Is right-of-way really so
hard to understand?

Luminous red light
should stop your exodus - please
don't block left turners!
