Indeed it has.

I've found it pretty good so far. :v

Among other things, i've met the supremely cool people in my roleplaying group. Walking home today from a really fun session, i was nearly moved to tears (of joy!) thinking about how on earth i've managed to find myself in such great company, and how i've even managed to make myself deserving of it. They are really, really nice people, and it's like, i'm still only learning how to not be extremely awkward around people, how haven't i fucked this up yet? It still feels really weird when i get the feeling that non-family people are actually happy to see me and enjoy having me around; i otherwise kind of go around thinking that people are just like "yeah ok you can be around i guess", as if that's not a given until otherwise stated. Weird as it may feel, it also feels really nice. I don't know if i'm just really lucky or if i'm doing something really right, but i ain't complainin'.

Yay or hugpats or whatever it is that TBF says in response to this thread.

Had a workout at the Y this evening. It'd been a long while since I last visited. While I was there, I met a helpful man who told me a few tips:

• Adjust the seat and handlebars on the bike machine so that your knees are just slightly bent.
• Put the bike's resistance (and push yourself enough) so that you're hitting a constant pace (200 RPM was what the man suggested) without stopping. Put it down a bit as you get tired, but make sure that you are always putting yourself at the point where you can hit that pace uncomfortably (see below).
• Bike hard enough so that it starts to hurt. You'll get stronger and feel better for it.
• Set goals like maintaining a pace of RPM.

Using these tips I was actually able to work out to the point where I felt like I accomplished something. I nearly got a cramp afterwards, but that just means I actually did something!

Working on a simple little HTML5 game (In GDevelop, so it's nothing terribly hard to do either ), and I recently got a very basic prototype working! It's nothing impressive, but the basic concept of the game is you're encouraged to finish levels as fast as possible, with top-down racing controls (No strafing, free rotation, no gravity, etc), and no real limit on how fast you can accelerate--but you can't slow down. Yet to make any proper levels or include enemies, but I've implemented dying, respawning, and the controls so far. Making an exit will be simple enough and that's when I can start assembling proof-of-concept levels, before implementing more dynamic mechanics (moving blocks, enemies, etc)

Yes. Yes it has.

For videogames however, this year kicked fucking ass. And ISN'T EVEN DONE YET.

You're young yet, you'll find that cynicism eventually.

[KingofstarrySkies]

I have, though. This just has been a great year. There's been worse-Look at 2014. What a shitshow that was.

Blessed be, to Chef Boyardee, who to I in a foreign land doth give me food and fond remembrance. A simple salutation from simpler times, he rode the shockwaves of remembrance and into my kitchen. His two set three step pizza paradise beckons me, and I am satisfied.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Saw a pizza kit at the supermarket, which reminded me of when my parents and I would make it as a kid. I have been kind of down lately, so I bought it. My plan is to cook it on Wednesday when I finally have the time to sit down and cook a real meal.
