Ew! Cockroaches!

Walking back from the bus stop, I headed towards my house. It was then I noticed my shoe lace was undone. Bending down to tie it, I saw it. The nastiest, filthiest cockroach I've seen in my life. And, as I usually do, I ran like there was no tomorrow (A phrase I still don't understand, but it sounds cool, so whatever.).

Damn! I hate those cockroaches. It seems the exist ONLY to creep me out! They're seemingly useless. What do they do!? Creeping about like they own the place! '
Well no siree,' You say, 'I'm not going to tolerate this nonsense', and you proceed to attempt to crush it with your shoe. Only to find the DAMN THING DOESN'T DIE! Lifting and stamping multiple times, it still seems unharmed!

One day I hope for someone to invent something to kill those annoying things. In fact I would PAY and FUND anyone who makes this thing. It's a gap in a market (So any budding young inventors looking for a Dragon's Den pitch, take this).

Damn those 'roaches.

Soul Calibur IV - With Yoda!?

…Or so says the man from London ExPo, a gaming/anime convention in London.

Well, actually, now I think about it, it ’s not that much of a surprise seeing as the last Soul Calibur (Which was amazing!! But lets not talk about that now.) had an exclusive character for each of the consoles it was on.

Can this really work? Star Wars Universe and Soul Calibur? Nevertheless, I’m not going to complain, because it sounds so damn awesome!

But this time round, PS3 owners can play as Darth Vader (Complete with stifled breathing) and us Xbox 360 owners can play as that lovable, green, 4-foot tall thing. Yes, we get Yoda! Let us rejoice!

They obviously thought this one through though, as if you haven’t noticed, the characters match the colour schemes of the consoles.

The strength of lightsabers in the game obviously had to be downgraded, as if Yoda could pull off one-hit kills it would ruin the game (And lead to a bunch of guys who claim they’re totally 1337 like those damn hunters in WoW), so the lightsaber is no more powerful than the other weapons.

But, at least this gives me hopes that my wild fantasies of a Zelda and Final Fantasy collab. might come true. One day. But for now, let us keep having dreams.

Facebook: Going for World Domination?!

Facebook - We all have it nowadays.
But it came to the point where A LINE WAS CROSSED.
On that fateful Friday we just had, my 8 year old cousin signed up for Facebook.
Now, I can understand how our youth are getting more and more 'outrageous', but thats just bloody well stupid.

First of all, how, in the name of the lord, would an 8 year old even know how to navigate around Facebook, I wouldn't know, but what I do know is that Facebook's networks are spreading too damn far! Soon we'll all be controlled under Facebook's regimes of checking new notifications and buying 'Humans For Sale'! And then Facebook will be out ultimate leader.

And if that wasn't enough, my mother has facebook now. My MOTHER.
The shame of it! My mother in my friend's list! In all lovey-dovey happiness, yes I love my mother very much, but thats a damn step too far!

Okay, maybe I'm slightly exaggerating, but my gosh Facebook is too big.

But I guess it can't be all a bad thing.
At least now I won't forget my mother's birthday and make her cry (like last year).
