VERY angry. An angrier, angry game blog you will not find, even after you look at the angry ones. I'm so angry, I have a little jar next to my computer that I put a quarter in every time I make up an new angry term about the game industry. The last one was "shitmongritude". There's about $73,503.75 in it. It is a <i>big</i> jar.<br /><br />Wait a minute, I just said it was a little jar. I mean it's a big jar. Forget I said it was a little jar. Okay let me start over.<br /><br />I have a BIG jar next to my computer, and angry, and "shitmongritude", and $73,503.75. And it's a BIG jar. And it would have to be to hold almost three hundred thousand quarters, that would be somewhere around a two-foot solid cube of quarters, nobody's going to believe that. And what am I doing with a two-foot cube of quarters when I could be spending it on World of Warcraft and totally gaming those assholes.<br /><br />Shut up you FUCKERS. Stop LAUGHING at me.<br /><br />It's a lot of cursing and new-angry-term-making-up, is what I'm saying. Because I make up words like "shitmongritude" and save a quarter for each one. I kept at it solid for the last five years, that means I made up 10 every waking hour for the last 4000 days. It made Christmas with my parents a little awkward. And I get to count plurals too, so "shitmongritudes" counts and so did the past tense, so when I said "that ending to Metal Gear Solid totally shatmongritude", I got to write that down in my notebook and count it as new. Nothing in the rules says I can't.<br /><br />To recap: I am ANGRY and I write an ANGRY BLOG and it's ANGRY and it's ANGRIER than the ANGRIEST. And mine is the angriest so it's ANGRIER THAN ITSELF. I don't care if that's not possible, my angry blog is so angry it makes its own paradoxes and makes them ANGRIER.<br /><br />Next game idea: long division!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15890629-112543663777975427?l=gamebastard.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Humphrey Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17534595062025418967noreply@blogger.com45tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15890629.post-1125240897433637642005-08-28T07:54:00.000-07:002005-08-29T07:33:12.166-07:00One thing I hate about the game industry is how poorly they treat their workers. I mean, compare it to the movie industry. In Hollywood, everyone is appropriately recognized for their contributions and receives fair compensation. Intelligence and integrity are always rewarded, and politics never plays a role in getting a movie made. Innovation and originality aren't just appreciated, they're REQUIRED. If you have a good idea, maybe not even a full script, just a good idea, you can come into town on a Tuesday and have an equitable contract and a crisp new check in hand by Friday, tops. Why can't the game industry be like this? Because they all hate me personally, that's why.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15890629-112524089743363764?l=gamebastard.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Humphrey Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17534595062025418967noreply@blogger.com32
