http://pwned.com/spunky/blogs/ Pwned.com - Spunky's Blog Feed en-us http://pwned.com/showblog/3470/spunky/SAD---/ I'm crying so hard right now that I can't breathe. It hurts. I was in the shoutbox earlier and an anonymous gamer called me stupid because I don't believe lt;insert viewgt; instead of lt;insert opposing viewgt;. I've never been called stupid on the internet before, so this hit me really hard. I don't even know what to think. What a horrible thing. You don't just call someone stupid. I mean, that's just not nice. I know my IQ is only 135, but damn, that's a very hurtful thing to say. :( WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THIS!? Also, feel free to comment nicely on that overly formatted, completely unnecessary question. http://pwned.com/showblog/3470/spunky/SAD---/ http://pwned.com/showblog/3200/spunky/American-Ignorance-/ nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Ok so, I've been talking to Neil on AIM lately about ignorance, particularly American ignorance. The only reason America gets the attention it does (every detail, right down to whether its average citizen is able to answer basic geographical questions) is because we're so powerful. That's it, that's all right there. The entire world is ignorant, people. Go to any country, ask the average citizen some basic questions about countries distant from their own, and watch. The average citizen in any country will be unable to answer. Why? Because the average citizen need not concern their self with the affairs of other nations. They live their life, and that's enough for them. Most people will never need to know anything about their neighbors unless it directly affects the way they live, or unless it's an interest of theirs. I laugh at videos showing some Australian guy inte http://pwned.com/showblog/3200/spunky/American-Ignorance-/ http://pwned.com/showblog/3172/spunky/Probable-Cause/ Copy-pasted from AIM for ease, didn't feel like typing it all out again after I'd already told it in full detail to someone haha. Amnestomethnbsp;(2:19:44nbsp;AM): :o Amnestomethnbsp;(2:20:35nbsp;AM): My brother just told me another funny story from his criminology class. Amnestomethnbsp;(2:20:49nbsp;AM): Er, criminal justice x7xSpadeSx7xnbsp;(2:20:51nbsp;AM): what is it Amnestomethnbsp;(2:21:17nbsp;AM): Haha. There's this former NYPD sergeant in his class who's always arguing with him like he knows everything. Amnestomethnbsp;(2:21:30nbsp;AM): Here, you have to go to college to be a cop, there you don't, so when he transfered, he had to enroll. Amnestomethnbsp;(2:21:43nbsp;AM): The guy was a 9/11 response officer, so he's seen some shit. Amnestomethnbsp;(2:21:54nbsp;AM): Anyways Amnestomethnbsp;(2:22:02nbsp;AM): They were talking about probable cause one day Amnestomethnbsp http://pwned.com/showblog/3172/spunky/Probable-Cause/ http://pwned.com/showblog/3154/spunky/Kings-of-Chaos/ nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; So basically, for the past few days, I've been playing a pretty old text-based MMO that I completely forgot about called Kings of Chaos. It's an incredibly in depth game where you build and manage an army, becoming as powerful as you can. nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Firstly, I should explain that this isn't like most MMOs which have "rounds" or "games" that last (at most) a month or so. Each round, if you want to call it that, is called an Age. I'm not sure how long each Age lasts, but when I registered, the game told me there were about five months left until Age XI. When I started playing the game for the very first time, I think it was still in beta (before Age I even). I can't be sure about that though, that was somewhere around five years ago. The game has come a long way since then. It still feels exactly the same, but there are so many more features now than before, http://pwned.com/showblog/3154/spunky/Kings-of-Chaos/ http://pwned.com/showblog/3125/spunky/Epic-Story/ nbsp;nbsp; I never write blogs, so you know this shit is good. Unless you watch Family Guy, you probably won't get why this hilarious. See below. nbsp;nbsp; My brother works security at a retirement home, and yesterday evening he had an encounter with a resident who's almost exactly like Mr. Herbert from Family Guy. He talked with the same daisy voice as Mr. Herbert, walked like Mr. Herbert (except he has a cane, not a walker), and he's an obvious homosexual (probably a pedo too, but I don't know).nbsp;nbsp; Anyways, my brother had an encounter with him yesterday evening. I swear to God, this is too good to make up. He meets my brother at the front desk and he introduces himself as Ray. My brother introduces himself. Mr. Herbert (as I shall call him) asks, "Are you new here?" Keep in mind he has the same daisy voice as Mr. Herbert. My brother says, "No, I've been here about four http://pwned.com/showblog/3125/spunky/Epic-Story/ http://pwned.com/showblog/2757/spunky/Video-Games-and-Society/ nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; For a long time now, I've heard nothing but how video games (and other entertainment mediums) are to blame for society's faults. A hot topic in this issue is Grand Theft Auto, a game developed by Rockstar North. Grand Theft Auto IV was just recently released and people are already calling it a slue of names that don't describe it at all. Some people call it a "murder simulator", others call it a "virtual sex game". Whatever the name, the people saying these things are wrong.nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; People such as Miami lawyer Jack Thompson continue to push for the removal of games such as Grand Theft Auto from store shelves, arguing that it encourages you to commit various horrendous crimes. So far, the crimes I've encountered while playing Grand Theft Auto IV are... hmm, none actually. Why none, you ask? Because it's a game. I'm not really out killing cops, beating up hookers aft http://pwned.com/showblog/2757/spunky/Video-Games-and-Society/ http://pwned.com/showblog/2637/spunky/Steam-Does-Not-Suck-/ It's getting so annoying to hear people piss and moan about how horrible Steam is. Let me start by saying that in the 5 years I've been using the software, I've never encountered a problem. There have been faults with the Steam network from time to time, but that's Valve's doing, and is completely irrelevant to the functionality of the software; the software is fine. So often, people complain about everything wrong with Steam or how Steam is so unnecessary, which leads me to my first point: why do you care? If you don't like Steam, you can make the choice to avoid Steam gossip like you would avoid rape. That's what I do when I come to the conclusion that something isn't worth my time: I separate myself completely from whatever it is. It's not that difficult. Don't visit the Steam website, avoid forum threads discussing Steam, avoid articles on your favorite websites if you think the http://pwned.com/showblog/2637/spunky/Steam-Does-Not-Suck-/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1991/spunky/Yay-/ Weee, I love Vegas 2. Although it's not so much a sequal as it is an expansion pack. It's like Vegas 1 1/2. http://pwned.com/showblog/1991/spunky/Yay-/ http://pwned.com/showblog/608/spunky/My-Name/ My name is Spunky, not Spunk. Get it right. Unless all of your fingers (and all of your toes, your elbows, your nose, your chin/jaw, your ears, and your penis) broke, add the fucking "y" to the end. Not adding the "y" is changing the meaning of my name from something nice (namely, a character from a show I loved when I was a kid, Rocko's Modern Life) to something sexually explicit which makes me sound like a fag (and you, for that matter). While we're on the subject, stop calling me "Spunky the Monkey". I don't know who thought of this, but it's not funny at all. I'm not just saying that because I'm on the receiving end, either. I'm always the first one to laugh at someone poking fun at me (although normally it's because they suck at it, as in this case). It's just that you're fucking terrible at it. It's not even clever.
