I'd like to remind everyone that half of the time I don't even know what I'm talking about. The other half of the time I only sort of know what I'm talking about.

I am happy that I finally just finished off that massive Text Game post, it is a piece of trash though, looking at it.
You doing that makes me happy to!
Also, The stuff in Do Not Trust The Rainbow Snail makes me happy for similar reasons.

Lately I can't bring myself to play overly violent games, I can't attack even fictional characters unless I can justify it. I can't hold my hands in fists or even hold weapons for too long unless I'm using them as a tool.

I've somehow become a pacifist to the point that violence repulses me, and I feel better for it.

Going to sleep and waking up at a normal time for once. It's so rare that it's almost like a new experience for me.

Edit: Also, I had the best dream ever. There were kittens everywhere!

One day, we shall all look back on this, and laugh. Sorry about the face, by the way, and the legs, and the eyes, and the arms. In fact, sorry 'bout the whole body.

I'm not sure if that makes me happy or sad... It's odd either way.

You are a great human being.

Crazy, sure, but it still counts.

Same here; but I'm making sure I revert my circadian rhythm again. I noticed that I'm in a better mood all day (even in times of anger, if any) when I don't miss out on a morning (despite being a night owl).

As for dreaming; I think I spent too much time playing some games I have. I mean, I almost had a Max Payne style dream mixed with Minecraft elements, with a mission structure like Delta Force, with some Unreal Tournament music playing.

Considering how my mind works, I think LSD might make me normal, and that would freak me out.


Oh, speaking of Minecraft, I also managed to make 2 Starcon ships (Yehat Terminator and VUX Intruder; VUX by request of Janet, added to it, limpet pods from the VUX attacking the Yehat) before the server cut out.

I made a room with walls, floor, and a moveable player in GameMaker with 1 object and without editing a room or using a sprite! ;D

I was just playing Plants vs. Zombies and I asked myself "why am I killing those zombies? I mean sure, they are pure evil, but they do want to live (and perhaps they can suffer)." It's weird.

A girl once asked me why I didn't just talk to the zombies—lately I think that this is a good idea.

Weird isn't it?  I've found myself thinking this from time to time.  I've always been a tanker in strategy games, but lately it's become more than just a sedentary playing style, but an elaborate narrative about how if it's a set matter that I have to prosecute this war, I'm going to do it in the safest way possible.  When I'm playing Freedom Fighters I try to sneak my way through areas (not that Freedom Fighters makes that really possible), and I do feel kind of bad about shooting all these guys.  Mount & Blade makes me wonder how I haven't depopulated the kingdom yet.

Every soldier has a mother after all.  Thank goodness for monster-killing games like Quake 2.

Kinda the complete opposite I felt when I decided to see what beating Max Payne on the hardest difficulty would do; but I found some cheats that allow me all weapons with infinite ammo. I just Molotov'd everyone I came across except for the key characters to progress the levels, until the time of betrayal. All this in god mode as well. Also the early levels. Mmm, rat barbecue.

Can't say those shmucks didn't have it coming. Especially late in the game. Although now that you consider it; there was a conversation amongst a couple of my targets that was a punch-clock villain working for the boss of the game, talking about how he has a family to return to and all (of course, killing him is unavoidable), I wanted to avoid hitting him with a molotov, but  that's what you get for working with the bad guy. Innocent or not, you're getting fried by the hero.

Oddly reminds me of Brock Sampson right now, to a degree.

Oh right, for a good portion of the beginning of the game, I played "Captain Baseball Bat Boy" and beat the ever-loving crap out of most of my targets with a baseball bat.

I have that problem. I was playing the Company of Heroes demo and I was playing more defensive and trying to avoid conflict as much as possible. This play style was brutally knocked out of me when I had literally one minute to capture a point or lose all my tickets and lose the game and those BASTARDS had the terror doctrine and could make anyone remotely near the point run back to base and after that I felt totally justified in actively wiping out all units on the map before I destroy their last building.

Fun times, actually.

For that matter, as far as my understanding of Game Maker goes it won't have any collision box either, nor will you be able to give it one. So you won't be able to see it, or touch it.

I meant in the internal resources. I had it loaded externally. ;)
Also, I just rigged the code so you couldn't go past the edge AKA where the walls were drawn.
