Jul. 23rd, 2007 09:23 amRach mad! Rach SMASH. ::chews on desk corner:: I hate this project.
Harry Potter Bootlegs! Yes, the last one is a dojinshi, but check out the first two! Hee!
While I didn't announce it on the Rerun thingie, I uploaded the crazy Prisoners of Gravity GEnie ad that I mentioned before. The one with Rick in what looks like Forrester's lab from KTMA-era MST3K. This was found on a Knowledge Network episode and probably came from the original TVO run. It didn't appear in the Discovery, Space or BookTV reruns, so it's been a good 10 or so years since it's been shown.
I also have some of the Discovery ads and at least one BookTV ad. The first Discovery one is really silly, but the second one, which I believe is from later, is classic Discovery Channel. :D These will probably be uploaded sometime soon.

Jul. 23rd, 2007 02:48 pmShopping for PSP games is an exercise in pain.
My brothers were given the option last Christmas to buy into a handheld gaming system. Spence went with the DS and Taylor with the PSP. It's Tay's birthday today so...
Ever seen the PSP section in a video game store? It's almost always shoved into a tiny corner. And, when you find it, it's like the same five games on every shelf. I'm not sure if it's actually the same few games or if the covers all look the same. Also, the shelf life of these things isn't very long! If you're looking for a game from a year ago, kiss it good-bye.
But, you see, not EVERY game store has the same five games. They each have a different selection of five games. If the game you want isn't there, you have to go to the next one and search there. And then the next. And the next. Sorry, but our princess is in another castle.
Needless to say, I went through FOUR stores looking for something that my brother would enjoy. I finally broke down at Future Shop and grabbed that a game that I knew was decent and that I hoped he didn't have. Yay for present.
Tay is a mystery to me. Spence is easy to shop for and James is very simple minded. Tay, on the other hand, is pretty much all over the place. He's multisided and you worry that if you buy something, it won't clash with one side or the other. Guys, ugh.
I took Mike's advice and went up to 401 Games for my WoW TCG starter deck. Cost me less than $14 and I now have an Dwarf Warrior. I am the girliest tank in the land! 0_0
I actually got the Night Elf Hunter in one of the boosters and a lot of the gear cards from the warrior deck can be used with hunters, but I don't have any hunter ablities or ranged weapons. D: I did randomly get two pets, though.
I also got a voidwalker. It's so cute but serves me no purpose whatsoever. XP

Jul. 23rd, 2007 08:20 pmI felt like ranting and now... I just feel like laughing.
I was annoyed earlier because I found a post where some guy was complaining that the "challenging" and "hard-hitting" episodes of Prisoners of Gravity aren't online. He was referring to the Fans episode I uploaded.
This bothered me. I've always seen myself as a freak in whatever PoG fandom there was. I only really got into it for the characters originally and then latter for the interviews because, let's face it, Rick Green writes some damn good characters. Maybe... I really was a bad fan! D:
Then, I thought to myself "Hey! I LIKED that episode. It's not groundbreaking but it's funny!". And, I like the challenging episodes too, but for completely different reasons. I enjoy the interviews AND I enjoy the silly character bits and there's nothing wrong with that at all. Heck, I've been trying to share this show with the world for the past six years and it feels like I'm finally making some progress.
And, I'm a girl! I have BOOBS. By all intents and purposes, this guy should be happy that I'm not in his fandom, slashing his d00ds. That IS what's expected of us female fans now, isn't it? Heck, everyone knows I'd never actually do that, but I know people who would... if I paid them.
Sooooooo I don't really have anything to rant about. More like giggling at someone who's just annoyed at how a complete stranger is uploading a series. He better pray he never sees the TTPCTS Club stuff. Or the IP&S stuff. That would be FUNNY.

I love this fox icon! :P
