This entry's themes are zombies and robots. But not zombie robots.
I never remembered to mention this, which is a shame, because it is funny. To me. I can't find it online so if anyone's interested, I'll try to take pictures of my copy later. ANYWAY. Last month's issue (wait, it says March on the back. What?) of GameInformer contained a flowchart that helped you determine whether or not you would die in a zombie apocalypse. IT IS THE BEST THING EVER and I think I am going to end up pulling the pages out and taping them together on the wall or something. I don't care about Duke Nukem, so not a big deal if I remove half of that article, and "Top 10 FPS Multiplayer Maps" isn't really anything I'll be bothered about missing, either. Hmm....
BUT YEAH. ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE FLOWCHART. AWESOME.
(I was reminded of this when, uh, April's issue arrived the other day. It contains a long article on Portal 2 that I didn't really read much of because, you know, spoilers. Apparently they've tweaked the ending of the original now. Not by much, though.)
Apparently there's a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
scifibigbang. (This is probably common knowledge but I wasn't aware, okay? I only ever see people talking about other Big Bang things) The stupid part of me is considering, if not signing up (NEVAH SIGNING UP! FOR ANYTHING run away! And also because then I'd have to post it. And then people might, you know, read it. And ... other scary things, besides), at least setting the dates in my head and trying to use that as a goal for Aniko's fic. Because, self. Wouldn't it be nice to make actual progress and finish the thing? SERIOUSLY, YOU STARTED PLOTTING FOR IT BACK IN MAY OF 2008 and have almost nothing to show for it (aside from three concepts in the scrap heap and ten million scenes you decided you didn't like and had to rewrite. And -10k sanity points, possibly). This is getting embarrassing.
THIS PARAGRAPH MOVED FROM A NOW-LOCKED ENTRY since it had nothing to do with why the entry was locked: Completely unrelated thing that amuses me: people naming their original characters the same thing as a well-known character! I mean, Transformers has, what, a million different characters? And some of them are pretty obscure (even if a search through the wiki will bring them up)! But one of the slightly more mainstream characters? That just amuses me. (In their defense, his [relatively] recent new name doesn't appear in the character menu because we all just use his original name. Still. It makes me giggle. XD)
...IN OTHER NEWS I STARTED WRITING ANOTHER OKAME-VERSE STORY hahahahargtrhnlgghkmfr
