Tuesday Night

Well, it certainly has been a while.  I feel inclined to post for a couple of reasons.  I have some additions to my audience, shout out to Tallatrashee.  Also, when I get requests to posts, I tend to respond to that.  So here ya go.  My spirits have been higher lately so hopefully my wit and humor has returned and this post won’t be my normal DC downer.

Things are finally starting to feel normal here.  I have friends who I hang out with, I have co workers who I click with, I live in a place for 2 weeks and it feels more like a home than my last closet, I mean apt did in 10 months.  Its great actually, you should visit, because I have a pool, a hot tub, a gym, a free shuttle to the metro stop, and a lovesac.  Google it, its not dirty.  I have 3 roommates, one guy and two dogs.  One is a puggle (half pug, half beagle, all cute) named Tucker.  He’s hilarious, always in your face and sniffing things.  The other is a beagle, Mack, who is pretty annoying in the sense that he never stops barking.  Ever.  No kidding.  Luck would have it that my human roommate is going to give him away to his boss.  Tucker will be sad, but we will all be better off.

In other news, I left Fairfax…thank God.  That place sucks, so many uppity people, bad drivers, and chain businesses. I now live in Alexandria which is more of a ”cool” place to live and full of people my age, not necessarily like me.  I will explain in two points: 1. I drive a Yaris 2. I don’t hide that I live paycheck to paycheck.  Its all good though.

Ok, I’m way overdue for a tangent.  Today I will rant about one of my geekier guilty pleasures in life.  So there is a website called gamefaqs.  Its a video game site with very active forums.  I post in these forums with a few goals in mind.  My main goal is to get those kids, or other adults who act 12, pissed off to the point where I can get them modded.  All that means is that a moderator deletes their post due to language or trolling or flaming.  It is generally frowned upon to get modded.  Another game I like to play is “hijack the topic”.  For instance, some kid will post a topic like “What is your favorite game?” and I will post something like”Your favorite game sucks, this topic is now about_______”.  Its a sure fire way to get a kid angry and get him modded.  Well I have been on and off this site for about 4 years now.  Just recently have I actually decided to be a contributor instead of a firestarter.  It has been, what they would call an “Epic Phail”.  So I have reverted back to my original plan to ruffle feathers of the 13 year olds.  So with the upcoming release of GTA IV, the board for that game has a lot of activity.  Enter Mark.

There is a brand new part of GTA now, its going to have online multiplayer.  Resulting in many of the posts being similar to ”I hope I don’t get stuck with all 12 year olds” which is funny because they are 12.  So I always find out what they don’t like and tell them thats all they are going to get stuck with.  Specifically, there is a kid who said that he didn’t want to play with girls…especially comedic, outgoing and loud girls.  He “hates when they act all tough”. So I chime in with “I’m a comedic, loud, outgoing, and tough girl.  I hope we get matched ALL THE TIME”.  I then shorten it to CLOTGirl.  So now everypost I deem appropriate, I just type CLOTGirls FTW!!!! (For The Win).  It has been truly annoying to these kids and I feel a little satisfaction.  There is something about anonymous annoyance and troublemaking that makes me smile.  I’m a geek and if you know me, I have never denied it. 

I just read that and its pretty random and may not provide you with much entertainment, but if you ever find yourself on www.gamefaqs.com on the Xbox 360 GTA: IV forums…just know that the guy always posting CLOTGirls!!!!!!11!!!1! is me.
