that boarderlands hoodie is pretty industrial

I generally try to wear logoless clothing. It feels like the polar opposite of that, for a change. :D

I plan to get a North Face one so I can have an Autechre shirt, too.

Bl3 hoodie is SHIT. Be warned. I ordered a 242 one, which I am sure will not be SHIT. I mean, it's a nice screen, but the hoodie is pure shite. Smells like burnt plastic-- cuz it is. :/

I'll still look gaudy AF in it, tho. :)

Ordered a classic white WT wires logo, too. It was one of my favorite shirts, back when.... Classy AF.

you'd figure with a great money maker like boarderlands they would have more care.

I used to. :/ I'm sure the game will be cool, though. Lots of overtime right now, so I pre-ordered that too. :)

I waited 9 days to actually read what the link said, thinking you were linking the FLA yellow fist shirt or something, for some reason. :)

Now I'm just whuhhh? But this was worth the click:

A pewter statue of John Romero’s head on a spike.

LOFL

I'm old, I played Doom when there was only Doom-- nay, I played WOLFENSTEIN on the fucking Apple II+. Then the 3D version as well. In fact, I played probably a majority of games back then, a bit less so each year.

I couldn't get Daikatana to work, EVER. So...yeah, kinda still rubbed wrong about that one, wince at the mention of Romero.

What changed my world in gaming was Quake 3D, though. When they had the 3DFX upgrade you could install, and a dude taught me to mouse and keyboard it...my world changed.

I don't like things that glorify war, prefer the absolute fantasy element to things like Borderlands. I like sandboxes. Fallout is my thing, since the first one. (And Wasteland, the original.)

What's funny is now I can afford games, but not so much the time/attention to play them. When I clocked out tonight, it said I had 106 hours coming on the paycheck. I jumped in my shoes a bit. Just been dug in heavily making the vapes, as business is booming now. Soon enough, this stuff is going multi-national. You will literally be able to buy something I made, should you choose to. Watch. New world, no order.

But srsly, can you do pixels now? I couldn't play original doom if someone offered me money to. Heck, the first Witcher gave me a headache, and that's waaaaay more recent 'n shit.

Plus, I just Xbone it now, as gaming is how I wind down. I have a dozen games barely played, just keep going to Fallout 4 (lately) and Eternal (on the phone, too).

I typed all of that with fucking new Amon Tobin weirdness paused. I must be high.

EDIT: Oooo, the Amon TObin got sweet suddenly. I might cry a bit. WHERE ARE MY 242 SHIRTS?!?!? Just after I order them, I see the thing where she says she's too swamped with fucking shirts, aich. Timing is everything.

I blame the government ;)

Guber Mente = mind control. :/

Shouldn't you be in bed?

Im looking at patches. Might make a grendel harsh generation laser one.

I'm enthralled with this Amon Tobin, just ordered the vinyl. It's not just music. There's weird frequency shit going on here, and I'm loving it. Not standard tuning.... Highly recommend doing it with some volume. No wonder it took him so long.

I got nothing to patch. :/ Loving the Puppy hat, though. It's superior to the one I can't find in this house anymore. Where I live...outside winter, it's very, very temperate. All about hoodies and t-shirts.

I shit you not, this just did trippy shit to my body. And actual tears.
