Went for a swim today. Two minutes in I get a fucking horrible cramp in my left calf muscle. Barely able to swim back to the shore. I sit out rest of the time at the beach then limp my way back home (a 30 minute uphill walk by the way) and now some seven hours later it still hurts like a bitch and I can still barely walk around.

There weren't any that I saw, and my friends were fine.

I blame it being freaking hot today and having quite a warm up on the trip to the beach, only for me to dive in as soon as I dropped my stuff, that couldn't have helped.

Oh god. That sound. There is only one kind of demon that makes that sound. Still, there's nobody in whose path I'd rather die.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Fuck Minneapolis airport. Fuck its super long concourses, the fact my flights are always at the absolute end of the airport with no concessions, tiny bathrooms that reek of piss and inadequate waiting areas that can't even seat a full regional jet worth of passengers. Fuck their super trendy "Native American" themed stores, decorations and everything else. Fuck the fact that anyone entering Minneapolis is guaranteed at least an hour layover. Fuck the 20 minute walk it takes to get back to security so you can smoke. And fuck the fact my business trips always, always, ALWAYS connect through there because it yields the cheapest flights.

Minneapolis: A traveler's purgatory.

And lastly, fuck the auction owner who has stiffed me TWICE now for the money I'm supposed to get for doing this godawful, shitty work. I basically lose most of a week of free time, have to get up at the ass crack of dawn to make flights and set up the auction, work between 1 and 2 16 hour days clerking their insane, non-stop auctions, get stressed as shit, get yelled at for technical problems that are beyond my control (like a bad internet/cell signal when running an auction inside what amounts to a Faraday Cage in the middle of BFE Bumpkinville USA, with an already poor Internet/Celluar reception because they're all 5 miles outside of town), lose two days of clocked in pay and all I get in return for all this is a $200 travel "bonus", which, when I do the math, is just about exactly what I would have made for working those two days. The extra money I'm supposed to get is literally the only reason I don't tell my boss "Fuck no" like everyone else at work, and I can't even call the auctioneer out on it because it's effectively a gentlemens' agreement aside from the actual contract. The money is so the "Nerd Herd", as they call us, don't burn out putting up with this shit. Well, guess what, I'm fucking burning out on it. And I've got 2 more auctions, at least, before the end of the year.

I'd like to say at least I'm not at work, and that's something, but the fact is the auction week, and a good, problem-free auction, makes the worst days at work seem peachy fucking keen.

Seriously Nintendo, I've got to get my fix. You almost got me by announcing SSBU, but now you've lost me.
My bet for metroid is one of the below:
1. Still trying to figure out how to either move the timeline forward past Fusion or fit in more prequels.
2. They are working on another metroid but haven't finished anything that looks decent enough to show.
3. Waiting for people to forget about the game with good gameplay but terrible story.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I'd say it was a little bit worse than just being terrible. It was like the antithesis of everything Metroid should be. There is a legitimate chance that Other M has killed Metroid.

oh come on just because it's a perfectly linear game that allows progress entirely through plot development (your equipment having nothing to do with it), spending the entire game being ordered around by a man who technically has no authority over you and abuses you despite doesn't mean that it's the antithesis of metroid!

wait shit
