Life behind the Roflcopter


So, I actually wound up failing a class this last semester. First class I have ever failed in my life, or ever even really come close to failing. I've gone into a Final for a class failing that class before, but have always come out on top, because I always had the confidence and such. It seems ideals and such from your favorite Anime cannot always apply to real life......
WRONG
Let's look at it realistically (if you tell me putting the ideals and strengths of an Anime character and applying it to your own life is not realistic, then Alt+F4 now, you are psychologically damaged for life.). This is my favorite example, and it made me feel worlds better about failing my class: Even Naruto failed graduation at the Ninja Academy multiple times. It's true, even our #1 Ninja hero has had hard times, harder times than we could possibly ever imagine, but nonetheless, it happens. Naruto always failed at what he is now best at. There's no reason I can't do the same. Point: Naruto is a badass,
The interesting point this brings us to is, WTF is the point is college? We already know WTF the point of High School is. Of course we hate homework and such, but the point of High School is not actually to learn the material they give you. And I'm being completely serious here, but it's true. Actually learning the information creates a genius who is socially inept. The point of High School is to shape your personality and give you the capacity to learn about the world. It's to shape whether or not you are a useless human being who takes drugs and needs to kill themselves, or whether you're a great person someone wants to hire. It's to make you stronger. Knowing the capital of every country in the world does NOT make you stronger, but going through the task of trying to know every country in the world does. It's really hard to explain, and I'm pretty sure no one has any idea what I'm talking about, but High School is about shaping your personality and life, not learning individual subjects.

So WTF is the point of College? I failed a class called Operating Systems, which is all about everything that has already been done and proven over and over for a computer. Let's get to the point: Failing a class that has no value of living in the real world stops you from getting to the real world. I failed a class that makes it take longer to get a real job and support myself, and the class had no value whatsoever. I'm NOT saying that education is pointless, and college should be eliminated. I'm saying that something needs to be changed within our educational system but I don't know what, I'm typing this all to put it in words and curious to see if anyone agrees with me, which I'm sure they do.

Exhibit A: I barely managed to pass a class where the average for the final was a 57.6%. THE AVERAGE FOR THE FINAL WAS FAILURE. Besides the fact that this shouldn't be acceptable, WTF IS THE POINT?! WHY give an exam that more than half the class fails? What does that prove? Does it help shape your personality when your studying? No, it does'nt. It does nothing but cause stress (I don't have stress, but I know alot of people do. Anime = life with no stress :D ). Oh damn, what do they call it when you take an exam when your 21 years old that has nothing you will ever need to know ever again? Oh, thats right. A GIGANTIC WASTE OF TIME.
I could say a whole lot more, but I think the point is clear.

Anyways, in conclusion, drugs are bad. Play Team Fortress 2 or something you useless pot smoking bastards. You failed the personality check in High School, kthxdiaf.

Hisagi Shuuhei Appreciation Day!


If you haven't seen Bleach, you really should. It has definitely become one of my favorite series ever. Specifically, Hisagi Shuuhei is a badass. He had a a 3 line conversation with an Arrancar in the latest episode that just made me say outloud "badass". His facial expression as he says it is just filled with so much badassary. The video of the scene is below:

<<<SPOILER ALERT>>>SPOILER ALERT<<<SPOILER ALERT>>>



Hisagi - "Are you scared?"
Findor - "HELL NO"
Hisagi - "Really? I am."

I'm pretty sure if I am ever about to actually kill someone, that's what I'm going to say. To be able to say YOUR scared when YOUR about to kill someone, is pretty badass.

Now that "shcool" is finally over with (have to take a god damn 6 week field session from 8am-5pm everyday), theres so much time for blogging and Anime! Yaaaaaaaaaay! Anyways, this is just a short little post to jumpstart things again.

BE HAPPY! I'M DONE FAILING!!!!


I know, you all thought I died, it's ok, I'm still here. It's time to get this blog back on track! It's been way too dead, and me being busy is not an excuse, ESPECIALLY since I have been criticizing the Darkfall Online employees about not updating the forum and the community when it only takes like 2 seconds to write a paragraph.

Might as well start off with what I'm doing right now. Right now, its 6:43AM and I'm mining in Darkfall. Yes, I know, pretty hardcore. My second junior semester has been doing nothing but raping me in the buttox (insert sadface here). But there are limits. I don't care how much school is raping me, BECAUSE IF I WANT TO MINE UNTIL 7AM IN THE MORNING PLAYING DARKFALL, then I will. Playing games 0 times a day is not healthy, seriously, it's not healthy.

Tip to all you nubs out there, don't let school control your schedule, you need to control your schedule. I know school is as important as the next person, but do not let it take over. If I could go back and change myself so I would have a 4.0, and not play games or be good at them..HELL NO I WOULDNT DO THAT, WTF!? SACRIFICE PWNING NEWBS TO PWN A TEST? ROFLMAO!!! So yeah, don't do that, or rather, you can do that, and then I can just own you harder and feel even better about myself. So now its 6:51AM, I'm still mining in darkfall, and I'm listening to my epic 30,000+ song playlist of Anime, which is currently on the track "Super Namek" from "Best of DBZ Volume 1" by Bruce Faulconer.

Apollo 25

Ok, so in the process of trying to make a movie called "How to make a bad situation worse", I came upon another great idea, don't ask how, haha. Anyways this is my Apollo 25 Garry's Mod Short I made. It only took 2 days to complete, and was so much fun making lol.




Anyways, I think this video is worthwhile of a post, so there it is! Enjoy :D. Purely for laughs.

Lack of Updates = Fail

Yes, I know I fail. But I promise I won't be failing much longer. I'm working on and actually going to complete this little Garry's Mod movie I'm making called "How to make a bad situation even worse."

It's pretty god damn funny, not gonna lie. I don't do poor quality, so it's gonna take me a few days, maybe couple weeks to finish it.

More to come!

Psychological Damage 103

It's simple. Play stupid and then throw them a curve-ball of surprise. This is kind of like my last post, but there's a different premise behind it. This can be applied to more than just flag capping. First, lets start off with the name of the technique! It is another one of my favorites of course! It's the legendary...

"Ima newb...IS WHAT I WANTED YOU TO THINK" - The "Ima newb..IS WHAT I WANTED YOU TO THINK" is somewhat legendary, because in order to pull it off, you have to have 100% confidence, and have faith that your teammates will give you enough time to pull it off. This techinque is best against cocky/allstar players. How it works: You play at a level so that you aren't giving up, but where you get owned everytime you run your route as long as you can without hurting your team. You want to give the impression that your having a horrible day, and can't hit anything. Then BAM! All of a sudden, you go in and dominate, throwing them completely off. This will severely psychologically damage them because they will think your toggle h4x0ring. It's perfect for making a cocky player think he's good, then crushing him, throwing off his gameplay, while you pretend to throw yours off.

In fact...it's alot like this picture.
And so what's the lesson we learned today newbs? Never go into a McDonald's ballpit without a metal cage. That's what I got out of it anyways.

Psychological Damage II. Only for advanced users.

The point of the picture above is not to make you laugh. There's two correct responses for that picture.

1. N00bs - "Holy shit, I never expected that."
2. Psychological Damage Pro's - "I heard that shit with my headphones from the other side of the map"

Some of my favorite Psychological Damage tactics fall into the following techniques which really screw with the opponent. My next post will have my super duper party pooper favorite.

"HE'S GOT ELEVEN TOES! That bastard." - The "He's got eleven toes! That bastard." is a crowd favorite. This technique benefits your team just as much as it benefits you. Lets say there's 6 routes to run on a map: Under, Bridge, Middle, Market, Caverns, Defense. Lets also say your >>db:spaz and your pro at flag capping (your not, but I'll let you feel good about yourself for now). Your job is to get flags, but which way do you bring the flag back?

Step 1: You go Under and touch the flag 10 times but never get to return it because you drop it in Market on the way back.

Step 2: When you respawn, you do the same thing. You go Under, get the flag, AND THEN TURN AROUND AND GO BACK UNDER!

Step 3: You just greased their Grandma's and faked them out. l0l, they thought you went market.

It's as simple as that. Do the exact same by the book strategy tons of times and switch it up. There is one key to this strategy though. Don't switch it up if they are able to stop you reliably. Then of course they know your going a different route. If you just go under and can't even get to their flag, you shouldn't switch routes. You should just uninstall so my eyes can stop bleeding everytime I have to spectate you, kthx.

So why is this technique called the "He's got eleven toes! That bastard."? Because when you take the flag and the enemy says "HE'S GOING MARKET", the next thing the enemy says is "SHIT! He went back under. Bastard must have eleven toes or something."

What they don't know is that I only have 10 toes. Now they have even more Psychological Damage because they think they are playing a FPS and losing to someone with eleven toes. Man, if I had 11 toes, I could stick the flag in my foot and still have enough toes leftover to run.

What would happen if the U.S. invented Anime first? What if White people cosplaying was the standard instead of Asians?

Everyone knows who Tifa Lockhart is. If you don't, you fail. But I am forgiving, so here is a picture of Tifa. Tifa is one of the awesomest (I will make up words as I please, god help you if you correct me) characters ever created from Final Fantasy.

Now, using Tifa as an example, what would happen if we were in a parallel universe where White people were the best at cosplaying and/or invented Anime first? I'm gonna show you, but I want you to avert your eyes if you are prone to nausea, diarrhea, or spontaneous combustion. If you are, then stop reading, and don't look at what happens down below. I will not be responsible for what happens after you see the results.

Anyways, first I want to show off my awesome new Tifa wall scroll. No home can be complete without one, or at least one Gurren Lagann wall scroll for that matter. First up, we have the world we live in today.

WORLD WE LIVE IN TODAY:
WORLD THAT NOBODY WANTS TO LIVE IN. EVER.
A world where White people have invented Anime and have become the cosplay standard.


If you like, you can click any of the images to make them bigger, as always with my blog.

Now to soothe your eyeballs, here is what a Tifa cosplay done right looks like by the correct race of people.


















Before I end this post, here is a bonus image for all of you that requires no explanation at all.
Thank god this post is over. Now I can delete that fat white guy off my comp. Don't wanna get caught looking at that when roomates come in.

Some things just aren't made to be in English.

This is mostly a rant about how much the U.S. can ruin something good. Anyone who is even remotely familiar with Anime knows that the U.S. will completely destroy any decent Anime series with god-awful dubbing and censorship. This isn't always the case, but it's a solid 95% of the time, with exceptions like Full Metal Alchemist, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, and whatever others.

My personal favorite example is Sonic-X. Sonic says things like "god dammit" "f***" "sh**" all the time. I may not speak Japanese fluently, but I know enough to know he's cursing regularly. The closest Sonic ever comes to cursing in English is "Darn", which is sad. It completely ruins the series.

Here is my favorite video clip example. The difference between the Intro's is a joke. It's so clear the English one is for kiddies, and the Japanese one is alot more fun and fitting.

GROSS ENGLISH


Normal


Since I made a huge mistake at Best Buy once thinking I was buying Sonic-X DvD's with Japanese Audio and English Subs, and wound up buying craptastic 4KIDS TV American Garbage Sonic-X DvD's, I took the same clip in English and Japanese for all of you to see the horrid difference between the two. I think the music is what pisses me off the most in the English one, it doesn't fit at all, it almost Looney Toons-like. Nothing wrong with Looney-toons, but the music just can't be done like this, its god-awful.

I don't know why the color got a little faded, but its fine otherwise.

GROSS ENGLISH


Normal


So what's the biggest problem with this? The problem is the U.S. public is too retarded to realize that everything they put on Cartoon Network is censored garbage with bad voices. Soooooooooo many people think Naruto in English is how it's meant to be. Uh, HELL NO. They have completely butchered Naruto's catch phrase of "Never give up" to "BELIEVE IT!". God damn its so horrible in English. Anime has such a bad reputation in the U.S. because of crap like Sonic-X and Naruto with English voices. Naruto is an AMAZING series. Don't be fooled and watch it with english subs and japanesea audio.

Happy Newb Year


Good luck to all the newbs out there who have New Year's Resolutions to not be newbs. It's a long and tough journey to just move your mouse a little bit more to headshot someone.
