Never in my life have I wanted to have sex with another man so badly before. Thank you Speed of Sound Sonic, for awakening my inner gay.

Oh no, that's definitely the case. This is absolutely a show that makes fun of all these tropes all the time. The whole time I was watching it I kept getting a Cromartie High School vibe, and it just totally makes sense that you would like this show. It's a funny show, aside from the fact that from now on I'm probably going to come away from every episode feeling sexually frustrated and deeply confused

 
well it turns out this was actually a dude and long story short I guess I'm bi now

I'm gonna start watching it with cascade soon, too. She and I watch stuff together a lot, but there's a lot of discrepancy between the stuff we want to watch, so I'm hopeful this might be some middle ground between us.

So last night my boss offered me a promotion at my busboy job from server to team captain. Its something like $15 an hour as opposed to my current $10, and I'd be in a leadership role making sure the room was set up properly for guests, and things in general getting done on time. It was a great opportunity, and a big boost to my ego since I've been there all of six months, but I had to turn him down. If all goes well, I'll be picking up a job in my field, or at least an internship, this march while I'm at GDC. And if that works out, I'd obviously have to leave my position as a team captain, and it doesn't really work out for them to only have me for a few months before they need to train someone else again.
Or at least, that's what I tell myself. Every professional I spoke with told me the art industry was difficult to break into, and I can expect years of waiting until someone decides to take a chance on me. It's especially frustrating because I know I can be good at whatever job I'm given the opportunity to be good at. When I was telemarketing I started out awful, but I worked at getting better at it. I showed up to every shift I could, read a book on salesmanship, and listened to all of the advice my managers gave me. By the time I had to leave because of graduation, the school's lead fundraiser called me "an impressive young man" and said I should switch to a business major in salesmanship. I even impressed people who were professional telemarketers themselves over the phone who recommended I go work for some of the more respectable firms in chicago.
Over the summer, T1g and I were both given jobs at my dad's office, in which we both worked two days a week in the same position (sharing the hours and the money). After two months of that, they just fired t1g and gave me his hours(GET REKT T1G). I had to leave that position a few days ago too because I needed to have time to build my portfolio, work on submissions to annual illustration publications, and just try to find a job in general. That's something I haven't had time to do in a while because I've been so busy between my two jobs. But they liked me too, and were ready to train me to take over for the intern that was there if I was willing.
I know I can do well at any job I'm offered. But by the nature of the game design industry, jobs are almost always given to people who are friends of the developers who are already on the team. Game design is entirely team based, and nobody wants to take a risk on a greenhorn who might be a bad artist or a lone wolf if they don't have to. So I get why, I'm just frustrated with waiting. I keep seeing at all of these other opportunities for success and turning them down because this is what I want to do, but then I know I'm going to show up at GDC and be told "you're not what we're looking for," or "Sorry, not right now" or "We really liked your stuff, but we ended up going with someone else." And so on. I don't know where I'm going with this rant so I'm gonna stop now.

can you look a homewrecker in the mirror?

I think about that a lot. I remember reading about an old MMO game where you could kill anyone anywhere, and the creator jumped into the game one day and everybody tried to kill him just to see if they could. And he forgot to turn on his immortality, and so he died. And I've seen videos of Notch joining Minecraft servers, and then everybody trying to kill him immediately. I think part of our nature is to prove to ourselves that god is really immortal or something. I don't know, I don't really care to talk about philosophy with people lol

I heard the first god of war is the only one with a decent plot and the others are all hilariously terrible because they weren't directed by the same guy

Just throwing this out there, if I can find a good emu and rom for it I'm gonna stream the original advance wars game since I've never played it. I'm not gonna set fancy dates for it or anything like I did Undertale since I don't even know if I'd finish it, but I'm gonna play it a bit.

Both are pics I can relate to

I dunno if it was cajun, but it was definitely southern. And I have absolutely no problem with it, I have long since accepted it as canon and am therefore always thrown off when I see him making weird gibberish noises in smash bros

I remember there was an episode of kirby's TV show where dedede gave everyone free dedede piggybanks, and then at night when everyone slept the piggybanks would suggest everyone go put all their money and savings in dedede's royal bank or whatever. And then they all went and did it the next day and so on, and that was the evil plot kirby had to stop in that episode. The kirby TV show was weird.
Anyways, maybe that's what you're dealing with. Maybe you're not actually getting to sleep at night and then you wake up and you just do weird shit during the day. Have you been doing weird shit lately for seemingly no reason EDA? Has Treemo been hypnotically suggesting weird shit to you in your sleep?

DO YOU WANNA PLAY TF2 TOGETHER

Yeah, I've always known I'm just going to be working odd jobs until I can make it as a game dev, so I've got a few places I can call on if my cash reserves get low. I know an upscale restaurant in saint louis that might hire me, and the contemporary art museum was interested in me working with them, too. But lately I've been trying to see if I can't get my hands on a job as a night shift security guard, or a toll booth operator, where I could feasibly spend long hours sitting and drawing without being disturbed or having to do other things. I used to be on a tollboth operator job listing email list thing, but apparently a lot of people want that job so I can't get it really easily. Anything where I could live in a tiny flat on my own and have time to work on illustration, right now, would be perfect for my life.

LISTEN. MY MAIN JOB WILL BE ENDING SOON AND I'LL HAVE FIVE THOUSAND MORE FREE TIMES THAN I DID FOR THE PAST TWO MONTHS. BEFORE THE MONTH IS OVER WE WILL BE ABLE TO WATCH MOVIES AGAIN TOGETHER. I WOULD LOVE TO WATCH NIGHTCRAWLER WITH YOU AND I WOULD LOVE TO WATCH A SEPERATION WITH YOU, AS WELL AS MANY OTHER MOVIES. ITS GONNA HAPPEN ONCE MY 9-5 IS DEAD.

Why are you worried about weed being legalized?

Well, I finished undertale. I played the pacifist route on my first try, got the "true ending," and those of you who were there with me who saw how angry I was that I couldn't just stay with toriel in the ruins can take a wild guess as to what choice I picked when toriel asked me what I wanted.
It was a total blast of a game, and I'll probably turn around and play some of the other endings later. But I guarantee it was 5000x more fun playing it with people there, so to every one who showed up at any of the streams, thank you from the bottom of my heart, except eric, who is a piece of shit.

FINISHED UNDERTALE IT WAS GREAT
I CAN FINALLY POST IN MY OWN THREAD AGAIN

GET IN HERE LOSERS http://www.twitch.tv/king_pheo

DONT FORGET, STREAM IN 6.5 HOURS, PROBABLY GONNA BEAT THE GAME???

Nah, I've seen Brave too and I think you and I both had the same verdict of "eh." The Incredibles and the Lego Movie are both still the best kids movies out there. Brave is good but not great and sometimes corny as shit but it has a cool bear villain.

BOTH OF YOU ARE SINNERS NEITHER OF YOU ARE FREE OF SIN

STOP CONFUSING ME

NEXT STREAM: 6 PM CT 11/01/2015
AKA sunday night. Nnnnnot sure how far I am into the game, but I'm getting the impression I'm pretty close to the end? A bunch of people showed up to the last stream and we had a ton of fun, so don't miss the maybe? exciting? maybe? conclusion? to the game! Maybe.

GUYS SHUT UP I ORIGINALLY WROTE THAT IT WOULD BE TONIGHT BUT THEN I CHANGED THE DATE TO SUNDAY NIGHT BUT I FORGOT TO CHANGE THE DESCRIPTION IM GOING BACK AND EDITING IT NOW LEAVE ME ALONE YOU NERDS
