Look…

I think anyone under the age of 18 should not be allowed to play on Xbox live unless approved by me, children are not mentally equipt to deal with defeat – hell, half the adults out there aren’t but that’s beside the point I don’t feel guilty giving an adult a piece of my mind.
I’d also like a universal kill switch  – fashioned after the Staples easy button – which I get to stomp on whenever anyone calls me bitch for kicking their ass thus sending their xbox into the RROD (google it)

Seriously, children, it’s only a game, you won’t die a terrible death if you lose. They’re not real bullets, it’s not a big deal if your opponent isn’t playing GH on expert.

See, on expert you get more notes, the fact that I’m kicking your butt playing hard means you have to be missing quite a few of those notes, so perhaps YOU should switch to hard and practice.

The year in review

But not by me. Why bother, Dave Barry pretty much sums everything up quite eloquently.

Extract – In october:

  • O.J. actually got convicted of something
  • Gasoline hit $4 a gallon — and those were the good times.
  • On several occasions, “Saturday Night Live” was funny.
  • There were a few days there in October when you could not completely rule out the possibility that the next Treasury secretary would be Joe the Plumber.

It was going as planned

Off he went to bed at 7PM carrying his empty stocking to hang at the end of his bed. By 8PM he was fast asleep and by 9 I was finished wrapping and retrieving all the gifts from their hiding places to arrange around the tree. By 10 I was done, and 10:30 I crept into his room, grabbed the empty stocking, filled it, replaced it and snuggled down in my own comfy bed.

At midnight, like a hurricane he comes running into my room with his stocking declaring Santa had arrived it was time to get up.

Groan… I didn’t get much sleep after that, it seemed every hour on the hour I’d get a poke in the arm and a “is it time yet?”
