Brogs?

Where are all the blogs?

Laver: not updated in a month. His mind likes to wander, but it usually comes back to talk about it's adventures.
Dave Jang: not really a blog, more of a single spiteful entry... but still...
Les: not updated in over 3 weeks. Maybe a little TOO MUCH of the "jizzumz" going on there.
Rob: Seasonally titled blog and injured at the moment. He gets off easy this time...
Sunny: Life is like a box of chocolates, according to a lovable imbecile... and Forrest Gump. Seriously, please update, you loathsome genius.
Thomas: Actually updates often... But he also smells funnny.

Let this be a wake-up call. If I can begin posting regularly again, you guys can too.

Please.

I'm so lonely...

Those Bastards...

Reading the World of Warcraft forums today, I noticed something eerily disturbing. It all started when I clicked on the topic, Blue, why is balnazzar alive? In the post, the hapless WoW addict asks why Balnazzar, a major villain in Warcraft III has magically been resurrected. He cites blizzard's own summary of the events:


"Sylvanas, Varimathras, and Garithos approached Balnazzar, and Sylvanas ordered Varimathras to kill his brother as a testament to his loyalty to her. Varimathras was abhored. Killing another Nathrezim was forbidden, but Sylvanas was adament. Balnazzar was sure that Varimathras would never take that final step. But he did anyway, and murdered Balnazzar." (I like how Varimathras went from being "abhored" to "but he did anyway").


A valid observation from the gamer. The gamers then explain the event using Warcraft mythos:


"Nathrazhiem are masters of necromantic magiks, he probably was ressurected by minions or some crap like that. (I agree, it's stupid, but that's what a CM would tell you)"

"It is to my understanding that demons are not as linked to their physical forms as are normal mortals. Therefore, if a demon should die, he is simply returned to the Twisting Nether. It is conceivable that this happened to Balnazaar and that he has returned.

You might ask, well what about Archimonde? Shouldn't he come back with a vengeance? It's also theorized that the nature of the trap that Malfurion set for Archimonde caused him to be utterly destroyed, with no possibility of return.

Does that help clear things up? Again, the whole part about the demons and the Twisting Nether is speculation, it's just something I've heard that may be true."



First, what completely boggles my mind about the second loser's post is that supposedly "It is(vague reference!) to my understanding that demons are not as linked to their physical forms as are normal mortals." (because, you know, a demon told you so) and that "It is (another vague reference! Who are you trying to impress with your crappy english?) conceivable that this happened to Balnazaar and that he has returned." If Demons can die and all of a sudden reappear a little while later wreaking havoc on the world again, then why the fuck would they be so "abhored" with killing each other? It's like me getting pissed off if someone cut my fingernails for me.

Secondly, I find it disconcerting that no blizzard employee needs to come forward to explain what was really going on. These nerds used their nerd-knowledge to explain it themselves. They've created a universe so diabolical that geeks try to logically explain continuity errors.

You Blizzard folks... I'm onto you.... But first, another round of Arathi Basin.... Mmmmm.. honor points...

Dave Apologizes!

Edmonton, AB. The self-proclaimed King of Everything, David Chung, has issued an apology today for his rampant disregard for updating his Weblog.

"I sincerely apologize for not updating for so long. My Weblog - or Blog, as I like to call it - has been neglected for far too long. I vow to rectify the situation."

Chung, 21, is infamous for his sharp wit, biting satire and raw plagiarism. When queried further on what he will write about, the statuesque man replied, "Oh, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. But you'll all just have to wait to find out."

The "blog" has become a well-respected institution on the internet. Most people use the medium as an online diary of sorts, to update readers on their boring lives. Chung's is no different. His "blog," Davespace 5000, was established earlier this year and has achieved a small cult following of other Blog Owners. "It's complete garbage," says one friend, who asked not to be identified. "He's so full of himself that it's funny. But at the same time, it's not."

Odds and Ends and Such... and Poo.

Like Lazarus's reincarnation and just as miraculous...
My x-box has risen from the dead. We must thank Joe Uhren, a true miracle worker in our troubled age. In order to give you a better idea of the true beauty of Chester's magical redemption from the depths of electronic hell, I've written the timeline of his first few test runs:

Aug 22: Chester is repaired and ready to go. I hug my X-Box for about 5 straight minutes. In front of a group of people. I think they're creeped out.
Aug 23: Test out Madden 06. Runs smoothly.
Aug 25: Jade Empire works. Don't feel like playing.
Aug 27: Tried to load up Jade Empire bonus disc and Halo 2 multiplayer maps. Didn't work. Tried to play Halo 2. Dirty Disc Error. Can't find most of my X-Box games.

I hate my X-Box.


WoW!
My hunter is level 31 on World of Warcraft. What's especially interesting is that I've had two separate, but equally successful Gnomeregan runs in the last couple of days. We managed to go through the entire first half of the instance without aggroing ridiculous amounts of mobs or being victimized by excessive n00bage. I finished 6/7 gnomer quests, which leave the main quest in which I can finally get my fucking Triprunner Dungarees. Now as soon as I get those I'll be able to finish the Dark Iron Dwarf Quests in the Wetlands and possibly move onto Southshore, Arathi, and even Stranglethorn Vale. But then I'd be in for a stupid number of Scarlet Monastery Runs. And we all know how boring those are.

I have no life.


Dave Recommends Shit! (Well not shit, but stuff)
Listen to Antony and the Johnsons. He's androgenously spectacular!

Watch Old Boy and Crash. They're cinematically fantabulous!

Play The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. It's..... uh... hulkulously smasherrific?


Edurcashun are Importent.
Class seems interesting. I should really go to my classes this year, considering I have a lot to get done if I want to graduate in the next two years and there's gonna be a lot of readings in all of my courses.


Go Eagles!
I'm skipping my monday lab to watch Monday Night Football. Go Eagles!


YTMND.com: Cesspool?
Can you believe the audacity of some people? There's this huge tragedy in America and people make cruel, crude, and downright bizarre jokes at their misfortune. What is this world coming to?

Although the Sim City one was delightfully witty.


Don't you hate it when things don't end properly?
Yeah, me too.
