My sister is listening to Glee loud enough to be heard throughout the house, and is sitting right in front of the television. ::)

Everyone hates League of Legends. Especially people who play it.

Yes.  I have quit this game for an entire year at one point because I hate it so much, but social pressures dragged me back in eventually.  I stopped playing almost completely over the last couple months due to a bunch of other multiplayer games coming out recently that people are actually willing to try, but have defaulted back to it over the last couple days.  I'm actually enjoying it for the most part, but that will fade quickly.

Here's the thing about this game.  Maybe 1 in 10 games will actually be a close match all the way to the end that's really satisfying and fun whether you win or lose.  The rest are split up evenly between matches where you stomp in the enemy's face mercilessly, but it's so easy that you just feel "meh" about it and feel bad for the other side... or matches where you get stomped so hard that you feel absolutely worthless and playing out the full required 20 minutes induces nothing but aneurysm levels of explosive rage... and then sometimes your teammates are determined to play out those games and the enemy team is having fun toying with you and won't fucking end it.  ARGH!

But somehow it manages to be goddamn addicting and everyone you know can be found playing it every single night.

Oh... and then there's Riot's business plan, which consists of putting out a new character every two weeks, even though they have a backlog of a fuckton million characters already that have yet to be properly balanced.  The new champion is almost always extremely overpowered, encouraging people to pay real money to be able to play it immediately.  They nerf this champion back to somewhat acceptable levels in the same patch that they release the next overpowered addition.  Like clockwork.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

I've actually found myself more satisfied with games (even losses) recently. I don't know if it's just because I'm getting better and the games are getting more enjoyable because of higher skill, or if I just care less.

Putnam, I have those same 3 "friend requests" on skype, but with different names. I have not investigated, but I am 90% sure they will direct you to a "live cam girl" site if they are anything like the exact same messages that come through on yahoo messenger.

I used to get those kinds of friend requests all the time back in the Myspace days. One of the major reasons I quit.

Way back in the day, when Instant messageing was new, and we had to walk eight miles in the snow both ways to get our bits, The very first message I recieved was "I'm Chasity. I'm 12 years old. Do you like sex?"

Spambots have greatly improved since then.

That was not a spambot; it was an undercover FBI agent.

Ahh, yes. Reminds me of a quote I've always liked. The Internet: where the men are men, the women are men, and the children are cops.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

And the cops are the homicidal quiet kids who got picked on at school, and became cops so they could 'enforce the law'. Welcome to America, land of the free, home of the oppressive elite.  >:(
