And this is not a good time to do so. 2nd mile is all about finding a good pace. However, I'm writing this while I should be reading for the class I have in an hour. *vulgarity* IT! Gotta find pace, gotta find place. TheRipper decided to open up a new site called Refuge and Respite. Of course, it being TheRipper, it isn't just about Admins, Moderators, and Members. It's got *vulgarity*ing High King, Jarls, Citizens, Thanes, and whatever the *vulgarity* else Ripper wants in his dreamland. Apparen
So my history here at EF has always been very singular. I started out in the CBUB. I stayed there, with no mind to any other part. Then I went to the FPL and only really cared about that. Then, for the past 5 years, I only really cared about the forums. My oh my, how the forums have changed. The EF was completely redone, with a new beta and everything. Nostalgia has rarely hit me as hard as it has here on the EF. Even with Pokemon and whatever else nostalgia is supposed to work with, EF is up to
Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia Fear of 666. Which, of course, has nothing to actually do with today's rambling. I just like that word. Today's Rambling: The Internet, Video Games, and 'Tards (You're a Tardis) Video Games and the Internet and You! (Part 1 of 10) Ever since the Dreamcast was released, Video Gamers on Consoles were able to play online. Hot-Tube Time Machine in a Tardis on the back of a DeLorean to the Future! It is now 2012, and Online Gaming is firmly entrenched in S
So this is it. The end. I first found the FPL in 2001. Actually, it may have been 2000. The details are sketchy. I don’t even remember how I came to find it. The point is, it was a long time ago. The FPL was, to me, a revelation. The people were comic book geeks – just like me – but they came from all walks of life, all ages and even spanned a few continents. Almost everyone was friendly and accepting, and even those few who weren’t were at least entertainingly mean. The conversatio
All right, so you've all taken a vow of silence eh? Well, today's rambling is about Humorous Pokedex entries. Here we go! Pokemon #425: Drifloon the Balloon Pokemon Pearl Dex: It tugs on the hands of children to steal them away, However, it gets pulled around instead Heart Gold/Soul Silver Dex: It is whispered that any child who makes DRIFLOON for a ballon and holds on to it could wind up missing Comments: Apparently, Drifloon is an instigator of Amber Alert in Pokemon Pokemon #029: Nidoran
At the Beginning/Pilot At the beginning we have three very different characters who have no idea what’s going on, or at least two of them don’t. I’m going to give a brief synopsis of each pilot just to get a grounding for this. This is also just the pilot or Ep. 1 of each Anime so don’t expect too much yet I’ll cover intro arcs in another post. Naruto: Naruto who knows about his Ninja powers (yes I know Jutsus but Ninja powers sounds cooler) and he’s using them to get attention. I repea
So I'm looking at my harddrive, and I've got quite a few XBLA games that most people haven't ever played. "Carconasse" is one of them, and "Undertow" is another. Both were gotten for free, during a time when XBL had strange outages that went for days at a time, and to make up for it, Microsoft set an arcade game to be free for a limited amount of time. The first time this happened, "Carconasse" was made free for a short time. I downloaded it mainly because it was free, and kept it ever sin
Today I would like to try and settle something that I’ve noticed has been going on for a while on the internet. This involves the “Big Three” of the Shonen Jump world. Mostly between who is the strongest between the three main characters, Luffy, Naruto and Ichigo. So, trying to stand from an objective standpoint I’m going to analyze each of them through three different points: Beginning Most Tragic defeat recovery Current Level If anyone wants to ask or discuss the levels of any other time,
Yes, I had a title, but then I forgot it. Then again, I suppose the question should be raised, why am I typing a blog at this hour? No idea. Today's random rambling: the movie HUGO. I was actually surprised at how this movie did tie into the real life George Melies, who did exist and did make hundreds of films. Even more surprising was that the lady he was living with towards the end of his life, was, at one point, his Mistress. That was a shocker. Why a shocker? I've taken a few film c
Hello and welcome to "Mindless Ramblings from The Core". I am your scribe and rambler, and I do hope you'll enjoy my work. If not, then whatever. So, what are a few of the topics I may ramble about? I'm glad you asked! (And if you didn't ask, well, too bad) A few of the things I may discuss are Professional Wrestling (WWE), Video Games (Consoles/Portables/PCs), Books, Movies, Music (rarely), Webcomics, and lastly, whatever comes to mind. This would probably be much more efficient as a pod
So this weekend I caved into the begging and found myself at the movie theaters instead of at home watching the AllStar game( Which I, of course, recorded). I went with my ex to go see Chronicle. In hindsight, it was a mistake but I still had fun. Anyway, back to the topic, I found myself waaaay into this movie. I was totally sucked into everything that was going on. Though at first it started off a bit bumpy, I soon learned to get to know the characters and was taken aback by the first casualty
OK, folks, it's time for another rant. The obvious choice would be all those laws concerning the Internet, but I have nothing to say that hasn't already been said. So, instead, I present you with a different complaint I've been dealing with of late: chronological confusion in video games. Let me start at the beginning. I have a buddy who is a major Legend of Zelda fanboy; nice guy, but has an unhealthy obsession with the series. He, like many other hardcore LoZ fans, has developed his own time
Man, i cant believe that the Denver Broncos didn't beat the Patriots. AGAIN! They would've gotten into the Super Bowl, but they couldn't just get the lead out and win again. This sucks. haha.
"Seas of dreams and nightmares" The Great Lakes were the only taste of sea I ever got in my life. It didn't matter to me though, because it was life, and my dream, to be a seafaring captain. Since I first saw my great grandfather's bronze compass, I imagined my own adventures on the ocean, battling pirates, finding treasure, and claiming new lands for myself on the unknown map of Earth. By now you've figured that out, but assuming that would be giving you too much credit. However, I'm afraid I
"Who is Reginald Chance?" "Callum, old chum do you realize the implications of what you're saying?", the jester shouted. "I know what I'm doing," Callum replied sternly. "But...but, I mean no more sorting, and... I'll be stuck forever in Sod's Law forever." "You're too much of a danger Funny Man," Callum retorted. "I can't keep using your presence to destroy my enemies." Packing the lease documents into his briefcase, Callum flung on his feathered fedora and headed towards the front door. "I
A while ago, I explained my absence with illness. Now, I come and blame it on my computer. See, my usual activities around here are done via my laptop. Show of hands, now, anyone got an idea why this might be a bad thing? ... Time's up. If you said something along the lines of, "you have a really crappy laptop with a history of acting ridiculous", then you'd be absolutely right. (this is the same reason I haven't done anything on DeviantArt, not that anyone cares) In other words, to be o
There are always the big names and their extended family. Then there are characters who ooze with potential and character who get put on the back burner for another series or twelve for Wolverine. 5. Power Pack Given powers by a dying pony alien the powers decided to become costumed super heroes. (Lightspeed was Rainbow Dash before it was cool) Often times relegated to being a crossover once in a while (usually with the FF Wolverine or Spider Man) They have more potential. How to Fix it: Either
Been a long time since I've used this blog. And as it stands, I figure....Why not use it for this? And so I dedicate this work to the players who make the room a wonder, the imaginations which make our adventures fun, and the epic-ness of a story that started with a simple tournament. None of the characters belong to me. All that I own now, is the claim that I was there since the beginning..... -Hugo Fowl It was the end of the world as they knew it. A small group, having made it to the end
Purpose. Noun and/or verb. Meaning: The reason. Only two syllables but so much to learn. The purpose of life, existence, if there is one. But thats whats people have been asking since he decided to stop being a fish, or made out of clay... Whatever the hell started us. Is there a purpose to the lives we lead? Is everyone important? Is every life pointless? Why the hell am I asking all these answerless questions? Because I ****ing feel like it. Thats why! This word is so big it leaks into my
5.TIE Part 1Dragonball Z More here out of nostalgia than being a well plotted show. It offers relief in its simplicity. You know who your badguys and your good guys are. Beating each other up occurs, kamehameha Plot resolution. It offers the wonderful satisfaction of seeing something dying. Its like hunting but without standing in the cold for hours. Downside: Plot? Character Development? Chance of killing damaging life if discovered: 15% Part 2 My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Picked for th
Before we get into this, note that these are my favorite anime series. Doesn't mean they are the best, just what I enjoyed the most. 5. Case Closed Plot: High school detective witnesses a crime he shouldn't have, and is forced to take an experimental drug that should kill him quietly right? WRONG! Instead he is transformed into a kid again, and now has to solve crimes with his girlfriend's father (who's a drunken moron) in an attempt to find out who these people are that did this to him an
Hello and welcome back ladies and gentlemen! This is Marvel's Corner! No, you are not having that dream where Marvel Man updates his blog. No, this is actually happening. So sit right back and I'll tell you how I became the Prince of Blogs.
