The worst part of any franchise is the fan community.
Babies are all somewhat ugly, or at least unpleasant looking.
Most people shouldn't be breeding.
Nostalgia is bullshit.
Cyber-bullying is bullshit.
You are only with them because you can't do better. They are with you for the same reason.
DLC isn't going away.

End of the Year.
Christmas is over and the new year is coming. There is time enough for only one more post this year, and it is a double post of sorts. The first part is a list of the few things that didn't piss me off this year, and the other is a list of things I look forward too in the next year. Sorry for the large amount of lists lately, and sorry for the lack of rage in this post.
TOP FIVE THINGS THAT DIDN'T PISS ME OFF THIS YEAR
5. Starting this blog.
Finally a place for my insane rants to have a home.
4. Sluts
They are doing the lord's work.
3. The video game industry.
This was a great year in games. I won't bother to list them all, but no matter what you were into there was something great released for you. The only real disappointment was a certain Duke...
2. Conrad Murray.
A pedophile is dead, and that always makes me smile. Not sure why he was on trial, seems like a parade would be more fitting for the public service he rendered.
1. The readers and followers of this blog.
Everyone that takes time to read this. I read every comment posted, and look forward to whatever feedback I get. It means a lot to see anyone reading this, thank you for coming and coming back.
TOP FIVE THINGS I WANT OUT OF NEXT YEAR
5. Break 100 Followers.
Tell your friends.
4. Find a job.
I NEED WORK!
3. New Venture Brothers.
Love that show, but the production time is getting me down.
2. Getting this years games cheap on Steam.
Just need to wait for the Summer Sale...
1. Cash a check from Google.
I think most of the people here share this dream.

The "Indy" Scene.
Every major form of media has a "mainstream" and an "independent" offshoot. Both are fine options, more produce 10% greatness, 10% shit, and 80% somewhere in the middle. This refers to movies, music, books, and most recently video games. The fact that there exists two levels is a good thing, a good "independent" work will go on to influence the "mainstream". It is a nice little system.
This is all well and good, but what isn't good are the pretentious fans of "independent" works that will tell you how anything in the "indy scene" will blow away anything that is "mainstream". These people will brag that they have never seen/read/played whatever is popular, or critically acclaimed, because a major publisher/studio is behind it. They think their love of the "indy scene" makes them intellectually, and possibly morally superior to all lesser people that just enjoy media and don't get care where it might come from. All of these pretentious people need at least a good slap in the face, or most feed into a giant wood-chipper.
Love of the "independent" doesn't mean you have better taste, or are a better person. The "indy scene" is just like the "mainstream", 10% gold, 10% shit. Every "Reservoir Dogs" is balanced by something like "The Room". So can't we all just enjoy what is good, regardless of where it came from?
