I'm 15.

How old did you think I was?

I wasn't sure exactly, but I assumed you were in college.

 

[JGlass]

It'll be the end of the quarter for me. I'm really worried actually, I did well on my tests for the most part throughout but I think my lesser grades in the middle of the quarter might really have dragged the whole thing down. Basically I had a strong start, weak middle, strongish end. I hope I do well on exams.

I've just really finally found peace with my school schedule now that my roommate is gone and it sucks that I'll have to get used to a new set of classes in a few weeks, and spend a week at home doing nothing in particular.

At least I probably won't be getting another roommate.

Quarters sounds awful. I feel like by the time you adjust to your schedule, you'll be wrapping up. That's the beauty of the two semester system, you have a month to learn how to work you schedule, and then you have three months knowing how to make the most of your time and what not.

 

[The Doctor]

Yeah, now that I've warmed up to the idea I think switching to semesters will be a lot better. I think that starts this spring, as in what would be next quarter, but I'm not totally sure.

Have you heard of this game? It comes out next week and I'm going to guarantee that you'll love and appreciate it.

It's probably my second most anticipated game of 2012, right behind BioShock Infinite.

 

[The Doctor]

I hadn't heard of it, but it looks really interesting. I really liked the music in the debut trailer. The art style looks nice, too.

Bioshock Infinite is another game I think looks awesome. I love steampunk and cloud cities so that aesthetic really appeals to me.

I'm REALLY looking forward to Lollipop Chainsaw. I loved the No More Heroes games and this looks like an even sillier version of them, so I'm excited.

If the rumors of Killer Instinct 3 are true, that's shooting straight to the top of my to-buy list.

The thing is, though, I've really stopped enjoying single player games unless there's a heavy creation tool in it, like WWE12. The only recent single-player game I've played and adored is Katawa Shoujo, and that's because that was really just a digital novel with incredible writing. That game motivated me to start exercising and writing again, so that's good. I mostly buy games to play with people online, like how I bought Soulcalibur V and Super Street Fighter 4.

Speaking of SSF4, that is one gorgeous game in how well it all flows. The menus, pace, and aesthetics really just work so well together, to say nothing of the gameplay. A well-designed menu system is a highly underrated aspect of game enjoyment.

 

[Muffin Top Merkley]

I don't think I was clear enough.

YOU NEED TO GET THIS GAME. It's a PSN title so it will be fairly cheap. Have you read any previews or anything that explains what this game really is?

 

[justinsayne]

Doc you should create a Justinsayne CAW for WWE 12, I'm curious as to what you envision what a wrestler with that name would be.

 

[The Doctor]

I don't think I was clear enough.

YOU NEED TO GET THIS GAME. It's a PSN title so it will be fairly cheap. Have you read any previews or anything that explains what this game really is?

Yes. It looks amazing, and it will be cheap, but I don't know how much of my money I can put towards games right now. We'll see when it comes to it.

 

[justinsayne]

Yes. It looks amazing, and it will be cheap, but I don't know how much of my money I can put towards games right now. We'll see when it comes to it.

It's not like the game will only be available for a limited time so you could always get it later, plus I wouldn't be surprised if PSN released a demo for it.

I was playing the demo for Shank 2, fun game if you're looking for something to just kill a little time with.

 

[The Doctor]

I played the first Shank. My friend Alex has a ton of PSN games we usually play at his house. He might actually have Shank 2, come to think of it.

 

[The Doctor]

In Philosophy class. We're about to watch an episode of The Twilight Zone based on Sartre's "No Exit". Sounds creepy.

 

[Барбоса]

Despite my years of study, I have never taken a class in Philosophy

 

[The Doctor]

It was a good episode. Had an interesting twist ending.

In Philosophy class. We're about to watch an episode of The Twilight Zone based on Sartre's "No Exit". Sounds creepy.

...I'd mock the fact that you're doing a philosophy class, but the fact that you're watching TV in class kind of points out that anyway.

Despite my years of study, I have never taken a class in Philosophy

You've also never had a lecture on stomas straight after lunch. In both cases your time was better spent doing other things.

 

[The Doctor]

I have to take it. It's a General Education requirement.

 

[maryjones]

Thanks for sharing..Thats great!!

 

[Muffin Top Merkley]

I don't know if it was "great" but it was really good!

 

[The Doctor]

Man, adbots don't even post ads anymore. They're slipping!

 

[Stormtrooper]

Man, adbots don't even post ads anymore. They're slipping!

but that wasn't an adbot, that was a complimentbot.

Compliments are nice.

 

[The Doctor]

Compliments are nice.

Haha, look at the website its linked in its profile. "Generic-viagra-online".

Totally not an adbot.

 

[Remix]

Talk about a contradiction. Viagra can't be generic because it is a brand name. Sildenafil can be generic, but not Viagra.

 

[The Doctor]

Spam and adbots simultaneously creep me out and amuse me. Creep me out because I just really don't like the idea of machines posting like that, but amuse me because of, well, "Generic-viagra-online".

 

[Remix]

If it makes you feel better, the Viagra's probably fake. Also, the messages will have initially been typed by a human. The robot's just repeating the message.

Hey doc you a fan of anyone specific down in FC-Dubya?

 

[The Doctor]

Marcus Owens.

But really, I really like Leo Kruger and Dean Ambrose. Claudio and Hero are givens. Seth Rollins not so much but I've heard he's improved tremendously since I watched him kill crowds a few years ago.

Oh, Brodie Lee, because he's possibly a Katawa Shoujo fan. I should tell that story in a bit but I cba to type it out right now.
